Chapter 173
"These rock-hard Baratheons and Tyrells, when will we get out of this ruined city?"

Earl Janos Slynt, the captain of the capital guard who is famous for selling officials and conferring titles, routinely patrolled the top of King's Landing, looked at the lights in the huge military camp outside the city, and cursed rudely.

A little bit of fire occupied his entire field of vision. Renly's [-] troops set up a huge camp outside King's Landing, giving these defenders a great visual impact.

Originally, as the commander-in-chief of the capital garrison, he should be working hard on his mistress at this time, but since the Lannister army entered the city, there has not been such a good day.

The storm of the downfall of Ed Stark, the former king's prime minister, did not affect the chieftain of the golden robe at all, which was different from Clay's memory, because Ed Stark was as fierce as a wolf Because of the soldiers in the North, he did not directly stand against Ed.

But again, he didn't stand against the Lannisters, but played the role of a good baby in the conflict, and didn't fart.

After Ed Stark escaped from King's Landing and the whole city fell under the control of Cersei, this guy immediately brought people to the throne room, and he slid and knelt in front of Joffrey who had just enthroned.

With his excellent licking skills, he successfully made this moody boy king happy, so this Earl Janos Slynt still put his big butt firmly in the position of captain of the capital defense .

When Tywin led the army into King's Landing City, the command of all the troops in the city naturally fell into the hands of Duke Tywin. How he became the commander, Janos Slynt knew very well.

The task that Tywin arranged for Slynt at the beginning was to stay in the city and maintain the law and order of the entire King's Landing City. As for defending the city, Tywin felt that this group of scumbags were simply useless.

As a result, when Renly's siege army was fully deployed and almost all the gates were deployed, Tywin, who was at an absolute disadvantage in strength, had to conscript Janos Slynt's golden robe to the city wall again, Participate in the defense of the city.

However, Duke Tywin's judgment on these people was very accurate. The area they defended was often the weak link of the entire city wall. In the attack the day before yesterday, they were even taken to the top of the city by Renly's men.

Seeing this situation, Duke Tywin actually had nothing to do.

If these golden robes and the Lannister army are scattered and mixed, not to mention that it takes time to break up and reorganize, what should Renly do when he sieges the city? Defense capabilities of the army.

If it is not mixed, it will not work to let the Lannister army take over their defense. Now that more than 2 people in Tywin's hands have been sent out, there are only 3000 people left as a reserve team. It was breached, and there was not even a firefighter.

No matter how scheming Tywin was, he couldn't create an army out of thin air. In this case, the only thing he could do was to move his reserve team closer to where the golden robes were defending.

Prepare for the worst and always think about wiping the ass of these idiots.

Just now in the throne room, after being scolded by Joffrey and Tywin, with faces not faces and noses not noses, and Janos Slynt, who was on patrol, suffocated, and stood in the dark city wall. on a stroll.

"Boy, what's new with these southerners?"

Pulling a gold-cloaked soldier on duty, Janos Slynt shouted and asked:

"My lord...no, no, these southerners are right where they used to be, and the siege stopped at noon."

This dozing gold-cloaked soldier was caught by his boss, and his tone was stuttering. He knew very well that his commander was not a good guy. In the eyes of this man, the lives of these low-level soldiers Not even a dog.

Janos Slynt only dared to show his prestige in front of these golden robe soldiers. If it was an ordinary Lannister soldier, he dared to say that, and the sword in his waist would have been unsheathed up.

In a word, after Tywin's army entered the city, those masters of the capital defense team who used to be aloof have become stepmothers, and anyone can bully them.

"Stand up straight for me, and let me see you dozing off again. The next time I attack the city, I will treat you like a stone and throw you off the city wall. I understand that there are no idiots!"

"Got it, my lord!"

……

In the brightly lit center of power of the Seven Kingdoms, the prime minister of the Red Castle, Tywin Lannister, stayed with his daughter and son.

That's right, this towering Prime Minister's Tower is the real core of Lannister's rule of the city. As for the throne room, it's just the three of them holding their noses and playing games with Joffrey's child .

It is really a miracle in the history of the Seven Kingdoms that the king looks like Joffrey. The king thinks that he is in control and his destiny is in my hands. Now working as a paper maker, struggling to maintain the precarious regime.

Joffrey's surname is Baratheon, and he considers himself the only heir to his father, King Robert Baratheon I, while all the Baratheon vassals chose to support Renly or Stannis.

It can be said that if his mother is not Lannister's daughter, he himself is the best tool for Lannister to realize his family's ambitions. As a king, he will be decapitated and the golden crown will fall to the ground.

After the glory of Targaryen dissipated, the kings of the Seven Kingdoms could no longer use the bloodline as the basis for the legitimacy of the regime. Everyone used to be a vassal of the Targaryen family, and no one knew who.

Why can you Baratheon sit on this throne, but we Lannisters can't?

Ambition didn't come about for no reason. From the very beginning, Robert's regime was a lame drunk. After so many years of wandering under Robert's military power, the drunk immediately It's about to fall.

"Tell me, my stupid son and daughter, what should we do about the current situation?"

Tywin has never had a good face towards his pair of children. Tyrion has always been like this, and he has long been used to his father's cynicism. After all, he himself said that dwarves are illegitimate children in the eyes of his father.

This is not the case with Cersei. The former princess of Lannister is actually the first-hand person responsible for the genocide crisis in front of Lannister. When Tywin entered the city, it didn't take long to find out the cause of Robert's death and Joe Foley's true life experience.

For a person who values ​​family more than anything else, Cersei's doing this would make him a hundred times more angry than slapping Tywin, but this is the situation now, and she has to keep walking while pinching her nose down.

"I don't care. Anyway, my brother has already been thrown to Casterly Rock City. I, a dwarf, might be able to be a clown in the court of the new king. I might live a better life than I am now."

Tyrion shrugged his narrow shoulders indifferently, his huge head was full of indifference, he poured himself a glass of wine, and stared at him aimlessly under the cold eyes of his father, Lord Tywin, and his sister, Queen Cersei. wandering around.

Tywin Lannister's emerald green eyes reflected his captivating gaze. He has always hated his son very much. He himself always disliked Tyrion's various moral faults. In fact, he knew in his heart , just because of his own son, he is a dwarf.

If this is an ordinary peasant family, then there is a [-]% probability that this child will not live to be an adult. What the peasant family needs is a strong labor force, not a waste with short limbs.

And as a Lannister with a prominent status, Tywin couldn't do anything to Tyrion even if he didn't like Tyrion. punished.

"Tyrion, put away your witticism, save it and tell others. Now, the family needs your brains."

"Oh? The great Tywin Lannister needs the help of a dwarf. That's the best joke I've ever heard..."

Tywin's complexion had already darkened visibly to the naked eye, and Cersei on the side maintained a smile that made her want to slap her. She didn't have the slightest intention to save her brother from the siege. She was happy to see Tyrion in trouble.

After saying this, Tyrion also knew that he was one step away from completely angering his father, so he spread his hands, signaling his surrender, and then consciously sat back in the chair.

"I thought you'd last longer."

Cersei stabs Tyrion sarcastically, but the latter immediately retorts:
"Really, then I have to discuss with my brother what posture is more attractive to women, but unfortunately, he is not here, it is really lonely, don't you think, my dear sister?"

"enough!"

Tywin slapped the table hard, he didn't want to hear his two careless things sarcastically arguing here.

When he got angry, Cersei, who was about to raise her eyebrows, suddenly turned off. She was not afraid of anyone, except her own father. Other things were stupid, but how did she get her position? It was rare for her to keep it. wide awake.

"Tyrion, answer me, I don't want to hear another word of nonsense."

After holding back for a long time, Tyrion sighed slightly, and said in a low voice:

"Father, our grain storage in the city has reached a very dangerous situation. I checked it out. Since Robert was killed by my lovely old sister, the Tyrell family has never sent food to King's Landing. After one grain, it has been several months, and the grain depot in King's Landing is about to bottom out."

"What was Petyr doing before? Where did the food in King's Landing go?!"

Tywin was taken aback suddenly. He had been busy arranging the defense of King's Landing before. Renly's army attacked the city every day before, so he had no time to rest. Now that the offensive was suspended, he had time to sort out the status quo.

But I didn't expect that the first news I heard was so exciting.

Tyrion's big ugly nose let out a sneer:
"Who knows? Maybe it was sold by our former chancellor to pay off the debts of the Iron Bank? The little bird in Varys told me that the messenger of the Iron Bank was detained by that stupid Stannis Force that hapless guy to let Iron Bank lend him money to expand his army."

"What does it mean that Iron Bank sent someone here?"

Cersei asked in bewilderment.

"My dear old lady, do you know how many golden dragons the House and the Iron Bank lent you to keep Robert on the throne, when you spread your legs out in court?"

"The sole purpose of these Braavosi people is to make us pay back the money, and there is not a word of excess."

Tyrion looked at Cersei, whose face was suddenly ashen, and felt complicated. Personally, exposing Cersei's scars made him very happy, which was much better than staying with the daughter-in-law.

But as far as the family is concerned, the situation in front of him does not make him happy at all. Except for Cersei, the father and son are not stupid.

And once the King's Landing City is broken, hehe, every one of the people in this room is at risk of losing their heads.

No, that's not entirely true. It is estimated that the person most likely to lose his head is his father. As for himself, if he begs for mercy and works harder, maybe he can really be a court jester for Renly.

As for his elder sister, taking advantage of her beauty, it is possible that Renly will let him relax first, and then, take his father and the head of the Mountain, and send it to Dorne in exchange for Martell Family allegiance.

What the Mountain did to Sister Oberon back then, Tyrion thought, they were completely interested in doing it again with Cersei. Hate is sometimes the purest emotion in the world.
