Chapter 63 Second order

After reading the three pieces of information, Clay made a judgment that the war would break out some time later than before, and Clay himself and the entire Mandalay family would also have a very precious time to accumulate strength.

Before he set off, the caravan sent by the old man to purchase the ingredients for herbal decoction had already gone to various places on the Westeros continent that produced the corresponding materials. While buying the necessary materials, they also bought other items to hide.

When Clay returns to White Harbor after his trip to the Twin Rivers, he will immediately start building his own team of witchers after solving the magic problem.

As for what happened in King's Landing City, although he was a demon hunter with extraordinary combat power, he was the only one after all, and he was not familiar with the place where he was born, and he couldn't stir up wind and rain in that city at all.

The reason why he still maintains the existence of the White Sea Guard in King's Landing is to judge the time when the war broke out. Once the situation in King's Landing becomes tense, there will be iconic signals such as Renly Baratheon's departure from King's Landing.

Well, this is also a sign that Clay, the Mandalay family behind him, and even the entire northern border are about to raise troops.

As a young nobleman, Clay has no plausible reason. He will almost certainly lead the Mandalay family's army to participate in the Northern Allied Forces, going south along the King's Highway to participate in the war.

If he hadn't prepared in this extremely precious time, Clay would be a little passive when he was threatened by war in the future. The recruiting and equipment of the demon hunter army, dragons, and ordinary soldiers were all issues that needed to be carefully considered.

Averting his eyes from the paper, Clay looked at Anti Hewen who was quietly sitting in the chair and said nothing during the process, and asked with a frown:

"How many people are there in the White Sea Guard at the Twins?"

Obviously familiar with this question, Anti Hewen answered his commander's inquiry without thinking, he said:
"White Sea Guard of Twin River City, a total of 63 people under me, all obey your orders, my lord!"

There are 63 people?That's not a lot, it's not just picking up a few farmers who can only farm from the fields to make up the number.

Sir Bartimus once told Clay that every low-level member of the White Sea Guard has received rigorous swordsmanship and survival training in Wolf's Den. 63 people are equivalent to 63 soldiers in civilian clothes.

If you can make good use of this power when the army is besieging the Twin River City but can't take it down, maybe it will have a miraculous effect.

Thinking about it in his heart, Clay asked Anti Hewen the second question:

"These 63 people, if I let them sneak into the gate guards of the Frey family, can it be done?"

Hearing this question, Anti Hewen, who has been engaged in this industry for a long time, performed much better than the captain of the guard. He immediately realized the meaning behind this question, and his brows that had been stretched all the time suddenly frowned, and he said in a deep voice:
"Commander, there are 63 people. There are 12 people serving in the Frey family army. Give me two months. I can arrange at least [-] people to enter the Frey family army, but the city gate..."

He hesitated for a moment, then continued:
"You know, once there is a war, the position where the defenders will appear is not fixed. I can't guarantee that they will all appear on the city gate, and the hinge hand responsible for opening the city gate is only one of us. Help from others is too risky."

Clay sat in a chair, shaking the red wine in his glass, thinking secretly.

He had to say that there was some truth in what Anti Hewen said. War is not a child's play. Where soldiers will be sent is very variable. The twenty people who entered the army alone are definitely not enough.

If he really wanted to rely on internal forces to seize the city gate, he at least needed these people to be near the gate of Twin River City. After killing the defenders, he could at least delay for a period of time to ensure that enough troops rushed into the city, otherwise he would die in vain.

Looking at the silent commander, he still didn't understand the reason for Clay's question. He didn't believe that the person who could get the approval of the chiefs and Sir Bartimus would be an aimless young man.

"My lord, I don't know if you can tell me why you are so concerned about the Frey family, and even considered... capturing the Twin River City, forgive me for being stupid, I don't see any signs of war between White Harbor and the Twin River City and reason."

Not the army of White Harbor, but the army of the whole North, Clay said to himself.Walder Frey regarded his Twin River City as a treasure, and hit the Stark family in the North hard, and the roots of the Red Wedding were planted here.

Clay needs a Frey family that will surrender completely, not a Frey family that maintains a huge power and can cut off the retreat of the northern army at any time. The two are not the same concept at all.

Regardless of whether he will remain a vassal of the Stark family in the future, Clay has to find a way to control the key point of the Twins City. Once an accident occurs to the White Harbor fleet and the enemy blocks the sea, the importance of this bridge is not enough. It goes without saying.

"You don't need to know too clearly. Do as I said, before I change this order, you must infiltrate the Frey family army as much as possible under the premise of ensuring the concealment of the White Sea Guard in Twin River City. From now on, you will Know what I'm going to do."

Nodding, since the commander's order is like this, as a member of the White Sea Guard, he will naturally obey it unconditionally. After all, if he didn't obey, he would have left here long ago, and in various senses.

Clay's order hadn't ended yet, and he could already feel that time was slowly getting tighter. Since he came to Twin River City, he had to make arrangements for this place.

"In addition, I need you to sort out the entire east bank of Twin River City, the military strength and population distribution of the manors of various knights or minor nobles, whether there are small castle-like buildings, and send them to the White Harbor Wolf Den immediately after sorting out. quick!"

This order is not difficult, but what is the use of finding out these things?Anti Hewen didn't have a clue for the time being, but that didn't stop him from nodding his head in response to his commander's order.

He now understood that this young commander of the White Sea Guard would definitely make a big move in Twin River City. As an intelligence officer, they certainly liked such an accomplished and thoughtful boss.

Moreover, he found that all the orders issued by the commander can be seen together. This young man who will inherit White Harbor in the future seems to be sure that there will be a war in the near future.

He was only in charge of controlling the Twin Rivers City and temporarily collecting information on the Riverlands. He didn't have enough information to make him think that war broke out in the Seven Kingdoms, which had been at peace for a long time, but the commander's perspective must be higher than his.

Maybe there will be a war, maybe not, but in any case, it is always right to plan ahead. His eyes fell on Clay's hand on the desk, and more specifically, the blood-red gemstone inlaid on it. trident ring.

That is the belief of the entire White Sea Guard, and no one will violate the will of that ring.
