Game of Thrones: I loaded the witcher system.

Chapter 232
I figured it out, this guy is the son of Jon Royce, the eldest son, the kind who can inherit the title.

Since this is the case, let's not slaughter it for the time being, after all, exquisite egoists can pinch and count.

If this kid is killed, it will become more than 100 catties of immobile organic matter, which can only be thrown in the ground to rot slowly, and finally benefit the animals and plants in the vicinity. Clay will not allow such a thing to happen.

Now that Jon Royce's precious son has been captured, Clay has one more card to check and balance him.

Anyway, he has an extremely flexible moral bottom line, as long as he can win.

When the time comes, a small dagger rests on the delicate neck of this little boy named Anda Royce, and he shouts:
"Jon Royce, take one step forward, don't blame me for killing your son!"

Don't worry, according to the mentality of the nobles of this era, his heirs, especially the eldest son who is like a baby, will definitely take the unlucky Jon Royce to death.

Believe it or not, you see that Tywin Lannister doesn’t like his second son Tyrion so much, he has to borrow someone else’s hand to find a way to deal with him. Once Jaime Lannister is captured, Tywin’s side will immediately misfire.

This is the reason, the eldest son heir is a family, the core of the core, except for the patriarch, is him.

Clay made up the picture in his head, curled his lips slightly, feeling that it would damage his glorious image of brilliance and martial arts, so he decided to send a personal guard to do this for him.

Shaking the snowflakes on his shoulders, while speaking, his mouth was already exhaling a very obvious white gas, and the weather was getting colder and colder.

I don't know if it's his own illusion, but in Clay's impression, the previous cold winter didn't come so soon. The snowflakes in the north took several years to finally fall over the sky of King's Landing.

And now, this has just entered the 300th year of the Conquest Calendar, why is the Hejian Land so cold, it shouldn't be.

Clay didn't know how the cold air in the north would affect the various parts of the Seven Kingdoms under the original circumstances, and this wasn't a weather forecast.

But the temperature dropped so quickly, it was indeed beyond his expectation.

At least he remembered that the War of the Five Kings was almost over, and the southern girls were still dancing in thin scarves.

According to the current trend, it won't be long before the girls in Hejian Land will have to wear long johns to dance, ah no, they don't have that kind of thing...

It's not that Clay procrastinated and put his energy into useless places. In fact, the sudden drop in temperature has seriously affected the army's battles, and the soldiers' condition has declined rapidly.

But in the current battle situation, Clay couldn't help but stop, and Rob Stark overturned his car in the most inappropriate place, causing him to wipe his ass for this idiot as soon as he returned to the North.

The current series of wars is to forcibly turn the situation where the enemy is strong and we are weak, and rely on my own micro-management to reverse it little by little. It depends on the opponent's level and willingness to cooperate with me, or it will be over.

The news of King's Landing in the south has been completely cut off. Now the White Sea Guard that Clay deployed before has completely become blind in King's Landing. The last news is that the old lion led the army into the city to strengthen the city's defenses, and then Renly's army besieged the city.

After that, no news could come out. After all, Tywin Lannister himself was surrounded like an iron barrel by Renly's army. It had been several months, and Clay had no idea what the situation in the south was like.

Now, Tywin Lannister led the army to surround Robb Stark's remnants in Harrenhal. For Clay, this can explain at least two problems:
First, there must have been a major change in King's Landing, otherwise, how could Tywin Lannister give up King's Landing, such a big city with extremely strong political significance?

After all, whether it is the current kings or the dukes, isn't it the barbed iron chair that they can win?

Second, the old lion and the entire Lannister family must not have suffered major losses. Otherwise, could the valley led by Littlefinger form an alliance with him?

Clay knew very well what Littlefinger was going to do, so if the old lion had been driven out of King's Landing, Petyr, a carrion vulture, would definitely pounce on the lion's carcass.

Moreover, if Lannister is also defeated, how would they have the guts to besiege Robb Stark?
The current situation is that as long as the key point of Earl Harroway's town is guarded, except for the 5000 horse-strapped cavalry team of Jon Royce who still maintains combat effectiveness, the rest of the valley is basically useless.

When the two thousand cavalry of his Mandalay family came to the battlefield, Clay could plan to launch a general attack on Jon Royce's army.

……

After defeating the northern camp of Shili City, Shili City, a river fortress that had been under siege for more than a month, was actually relieved of the siege.

Xi Daying became a tortoise, knowing that he couldn't run away, and wanted to fight trapped beasts, but Clay turned his horse's head as he wished, and led 200 people directly into Shili City.

Stonewall City is the castle of the Bracken family. It is well-built. It is located on the great plain in the east of the Riverlands. It has everything it should have, including sentry towers, stone walls, and arrow towers. The city walls are also thick enough.

Earl Janos Bracken, as the Earl of Stone Ledge City, is a man whose fertility has been affirmed by the gods. However, it is a bit unlucky that all five offspring are daughters. How to evaluate it? From a statistical point of view, it is also a European emperor in a different sense.

It stands to reason that the current owner of Stone Hedge City should be his eldest daughter, Barbara Bracken. However, because of gender issues, the real owner of this fortress is the illegitimate son of Earl Jonos Bracken: Harry Rivers.

Bastards also have human rights, when the father's descendants are all daughters, or there is no legitimate child at all.

An illegitimate son from the north expressed that he was very sad.

Therefore, when Clay led his army into Shili City, he was greeted by a good-looking boy.

"Thank you for your help to Stonewall City. You drove away the disgusting eagles for us. Stonewall City is open for you. Dear Lord Clay Manderly, I am Harry Rivers, and my father is Janos Brinken."

Clay nodded, and he didn't put on airs with Harry Hewen. He didn't need to be respected by others in this way. In this world, only power and blood are awe-inspiring.

"Harry Rivers, you are safe now. If Lord Blinken still has family members here, I can send someone to send you out of the city. The people of the Valley have no guts to attack you."

Clay got off his horse, took off his gloves, and patted the shoulder of the young man who was defending Stone Ledge City.

"I can't guarantee that Stonewall City will face another attack in the future. After all, Jon Royce must be in a bad mood right now."

Clay smiled and didn't mean to say anything more.

Harry Hewen frowned, and his childish face was full of doubts. He didn't understand the current battle situation, so he could only stare at the besieging army in the valley below the city wall every day.

"Master Clay, my father ordered me to guard Stone Ledge City, so I must complete my task. This is my responsibility and my honor."

The young bastard's tone was very serious, obviously, he really thought so.

Clay nodded. He understood Harry Hewen's thoughts. In the family, he was not welcomed because of his status as an illegitimate child. Now that the war is coming, the illegitimate child has become the pillar of the family. He will not give up this opportunity.

"Okay, I won't stop you, but I suggest you send your older sister or younger sister to Riverrun City, where [-] troops can protect them."

"Here, Master Clay, can't you protect them?"

Harry Hewen asked, he didn't hold back, saying what he could protect, the current Shili City, the defensive force is only 300 people, this is far from enough.

Hearing this, Clay was silent for a moment, and replied softly:
"Boy, you and your Shili City are not that important. If necessary, I will definitely give up here, if it is beneficial to me."

Clay's words are straightforward and cold, but they are the truth.

If the situation of the battle changes, for example, the old lion gave up besieging the remnants of Rob Stark and attacked westward, how could Clay put himself in for a stone hedge city?

Everyone has their own responsibilities. Harry Rivers' responsibility is to defend Stonewall City at all costs. Clay understands that, so he respects his choice.

But he wants to make it clear to this kid, the wife of Lord Janos Blinken, he can help, but only this time, the choice is yours.

The snow is getting bigger, the temperature on the ground is already very low, and the snowflakes are no longer melting.

Clay was waiting for Harry Rivers' answer.

　Eh hey!
