Game of Thrones: Royal Game

Chapter 261 Yunkai
Starting from Astapor, after marching for twelve days along the ancient Ghiscari coastal road, Ian's scouting team finally saw the city famous for producing bed slaves-Yunkai from a distance.

The second largest city in Slaver's Bay is also built of ancient bricks like Astapor, the difference between them is that Astapor uses red bricks, while Yunkai has yellow bricks. piece.

On Yunkai's seemingly crumbling city wall, the two sages, Grazdan mo Eraz and Yazan zo Quagz, who had been waiting for a long time, also saw this team appear at the city gate at the same time Scout cavalry outside.

"Is this the cavalry you praised so much before?" Yazan zo Quagz asked Grazdan, who had visited Astapor as an envoy from Yunkai, and he had been talking to the man named Ian since he came back. Darry's Lord of Westeros and his army are full of praise.

"They are Dothraki people, and they have mastered the most exquisite riding and shooting skills since they were young." Grazdan mo Eraz said in a particularly respectful tone.

Although Lord Yazan standing in front of him wore the same tokar robe with golden tassels as him, Yazan was the richest man in Yunkai, and he was second only to Grand Marshal Yakhaz of Yunkai in power. The Great Sage of Zo Yazak.

"And now," Grazdan went on, "Lord Darry has put them in armor and made them obey the commander's every command like the Unsullied."

"It's really interesting to let the Dothraki wear armor, but unfortunately I can't buy him to expand my collection." Yazan laughed, his fat body was shaking even with the sedan chair under him, almost crushed four times A slave carrying a sedan chair stood there without asking.

Yazan zo Quagz usually travels in a luxury sedan carried by 40 slaves, but this time he wants to see this "invincible army" that Grazdan touts as the savior of Gith Only then did he condescend to change into a sedan chair that could go up the city wall.

He is obsessed with collecting freaks, often purchasing deformed slaves to add to his collection, such as gnomes, androgynous, and even a two-headed slave from Mataris.

Perhaps in Yazan's eyes, Ian, who can make the Dothraki wear armor, can be regarded as some kind of freak.

"I think." Grazdan twitched the corners of his lips, "Lord Darry probably won't like what you said just now."

"Will you tell him?"

"will not."

"Then I didn't say it." Yazan shook his head, seeing that the Dothraki cavalry below had passed the guard's confirmation and entered the city, so he said to Grazdan, "Go out of the city to meet that Daryl Earl, there is a white leaf forest to the south of Yunkai, take people there to meet our allies."

"Don't worry, the infantry is often several leagues behind the scout cavalry, and this is just a vanguard scout. It won't be too late to pick him up after we find out from the cavalry when the earl's central army will arrive." Grazdan replied.

"Alright, you decide these things yourself, as long as you don't lose Yunkai's etiquette."

"Of course, my lord." Grazdan was not annoyed by being used as a subordinate by the other party. In fact, Yazan was the only great lord he was close to in Yunkai, because Yazan had something that almost all other sages did not have. Shrewd and intelligent.

Don't look at Yazan who is too fat to stand up now, and is unable to control urination due to serious illness, so that the smell of urine can't be covered up by spraying perfume on his body.He was a well-known navigator in Yunkai before, and even the disease that caused him to become what he is now was also suffered from when he was exploring the continent of Sossros more than ten years ago.

"By the way, about what I told you yesterday?" Grazdan asked again.

"You mean Lord Darry's battle plan?"

"Yes, Earl Darry made it clear at the battle meeting that there are only two ideal battlefields for his ideal battle, either in a valley where the Skahazaban River passes through the Ghiscari Mountains, or in Meereen. Fight with the city behind the city." Grazdan repeated that the news was brought to him by a friend he made during his mission to Astapor.

"The people of Meereen will not agree to this plan." Yazan shook his head, "It is too risky for Meereen to fight in these two places. Lin is at risk of falling.

Meereen joined the alliance originally to avoid risks. They joined the alliance because Earl Darry had promised to go to Lazar to fight the king of horses. If the decisive battle took place in these two places, why would Meereen join the alliance? "

"But... these two locations can indeed greatly increase our coalition's winning rate!" Grazdan argued, "The Unsullied will never be defeated in a deadly battle. The Dothraki will never be able to penetrate their defenses from the front. The centaur's outflanking road, and with the archer army with a longer range than them, the centaur is helpless.
Taking a step back, in these two places, even if the coalition forces are defeated, we can use the navy to assist in retreating and preserve part of our strength.On the contrary, if the coalition forces go to Hessi in Raza to fight the horses, and we happen to be defeated, on the plain of Raza, our army will have no way to escape, but be wiped out.

The point is. After the centaurs defeated the coalition forces in Hessey, the next step must be to cross the Kaiser Pass from Hessey, so that once they pass through the Ghiscari Mountains, they will be on our territory of Yunkai. "

"You hope that Yunkai will support the plan of Lord Darry?" Yazan heard the meaning of Grazdan's words.

"Yes, I think that is the best plan for Yunkai." Grazdan did not deny it.

"Fortunately, you said this to me. If it were someone else, their first sentence would probably be asking how much you charged Earl Darry." Yazan laughed.

"That's why I won't say that to them, my lord."

"Okay, okay." Yazan pondered for a moment, then nodded, "I think you're right, Yunkai's interests are inconsistent with Meereen's on this issue, but" he then changed the subject, "You I am not the commander representing Yunkai, and it is of no use for me to agree with you.

We all know that Grand Marshal Yakhaz zo Yazak of Yunkai was a Meereenian, and that was an old, pompous fool. "

"Maybe you can help," Grazdan said hastily.

"No, no, no," Yazan said three no words in a row to refuse, "I won't talk to that stupid thing, no." Yazan's tone was very firm, "I don't have many days to live And I don’t have a son, what will happen to Yunkai in the future and what does it have to do with me? Let me submit to Arkhaz for Yunkai’s sake? Haha, I’d rather see him deflated.”

Grazdan's heart sank. He just thought that Yazan had the ability to save Yunkai, but he forgot that Yazan, who had died soon and was alone, had no motive to save Yunkai.
