Chapter 65 Ready to leave
After reading every word of the letter carefully, Clay's previous good mood has completely disappeared.

The incident happened near the Neck, north of the Twin Rivers. After the White Sea Guard's spies in the Riverlands got the news, they immediately spread the news to the Twins. Should have flown.

The letter did not specify the attacker. It is estimated that the person who sent the letter also got the news later, but this matter itself is already a very serious matter.

A caravan of more than 50 people transported bulk goods. Apart from the labor involved in transporting the goods, according to Clay's knowledge of his own caravan, at least half of them were armed guards.

I don't know what the specific cargo of this caravan is, but in the sensitive position of the neck, Clay has some bad premonitions.

The demon hunter's green grass decoction formula includes things obtained in the neck. If it is really unlucky, you can only consider yourself unlucky if you encounter bandits, but I am afraid that someone will stare at these things after you return to White Harbor. , Suddenly there are more purchase orders.

Clay knew that it was time for him to leave the Twin Rivers City. With such a big incident, he was the closest, and as the heir to White Harbor, he had to go north immediately to deal with this matter.

"Master..." The captain of the guard also had an ugly expression on his face. Although they did not cross the Neck by land on their way back, the way through the forest to the east coast is also very close to the Neck. Moreover, they intercepted and killed a group of dozens of people. The White Harbor Caravan made this veteran very angry.

"Wait, let's figure out the situation first. This is first-hand news, and we still know too little."

Clay dropped his wine glass, stood up from his chair, stomped around the room, frowned and thought for a while, and asked aloud:
"According to your experience, if you attack the same caravan and achieve the result described in the letter, how many people do you need?"

The captain of the guard shook his head and replied in a low voice:
"Master, your question is not very accurate. I can't answer it, because I don't know who did it. Our caravan guards are all light leather armor, and the only weapons are swords."

"If I let my cavalry come, the 50-man charge would be over, but..."

"That's impossible. Right?" Clay said for him what he hadn't said.

It is true that the Neck Marsh is full of swamps. Apart from the Lide family in Huishuiwang, there are some swamp people living here. If someone can steal more than fifty heavy cavalry, After crossing countless eyeliners, it directly appeared on the neck.

That's really nonsense. Clay and the others took the sea route when they came, but on the sea of ​​Bite Bay, apart from the Mandalay family, there is no strong military presence at all.

Not to mention transporting 50 people and equipment, it is impossible to hide from the sky, no one knows.

Is it really a bandit?Clay doesn't quite believe it. Although there has always been a tradition of bandits in the Hejian Land, if it is to wipe out these 50 people, with the equipment of the bandits, it will take at least a hundred people to do it, right?
No matter what, I have to go this time. There is only so much information I can think of right now. I'll talk about the rest after reading it elsewhere.

"Yes, young master, this is impossible, then... what should we do now?"

The captain of the guard nodded, and then stood aside, quietly waiting for Master Clay's order. He believed that with his master's temper, he would never stay in the Twin River City and do nothing.

"Go and gather all the White Harbor Guards in the Twin Rivers. When I return from Lord Walder Frey, there must be no less than 200 people. Even if you are working on a woman's belly, you have to give me a man." Pull it back."

Clay's tone was stern. Although he was young, after being the heir of White Harbor for so long, the involuntary majesty in his words made the captain of the guard nod immediately. After confirming the order, he immediately turned around and went out to execute it.

Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles. Clay estimated that the Frey family with power all over the upper reaches of the Green Fork River has also got the news. At this moment, Lord Walder Frey is waiting for him to come to the door.

After tidying himself up, Clay left the Manderly family residence with two guards and headed straight for the main castle where Lord Walder Frey was.

Walking steadily, Clay arrived at the gate of the main castle. He adjusted his expression and slowed down his pace. The more he looked at this time, the more contemptuous he looked.

The soldiers of the Frey family standing guard had the coat of arms of the Twin Towers engraved on their black armor. When they saw Clay approaching, they obviously recognized the mermaid logo on his armor, and the Frey soldiers immediately let them go.

"Where is Lord Marquis? I need to see him immediately."

Clay didn't know anyone in the castle, so he had no choice but to ask the soldier who could guard the gate for Lord Walder Frey.

However, it was not the soldier who answered him. A slightly familiar voice from Clay came from behind him:

"Master Clay, I'll take you to my father, you don't need to ask him."

Turning around and seeing the face of the person coming, Clay was taken aback for a moment.

Aenys Frey, why is he here?The two didn't agree with each other at the East City Gate before, and Sir Aenys Frey left angrily. Clay still laughed at his wishful thinking in his heart, so why would he take the initiative to say hello to himself now?
With a very kind smile on Aenys Foyle's face, he strode up to Clay's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said:
"I went to your station to look for you. The people in Mandalay said you were not there, so I knew you must be here."

Clay shrugged his shoulders, moved away from his hand, and stared at him, wondering what Aenys Foyle was doing looking for him in the station, and how could he be sure he was back here?
As if knowing what Clay was thinking, Ines led him to the stairs of the main castle, and whispered nonchalantly:
"The ravens of the Frey family are managed by me and the maester. Oh, my father will not allow his life to be managed by outsiders."

There is no context, but Clay is very clear about the meaning of these words. The ravens are managed by Innis, so he must have known about the massacre of the White Harbor caravan. When he couldn't find himself in the Mandalay family residence , and immediately knew that he must be looking for Lord Walder Frey.

Moreover, Aenys Frey's words also revealed another level of information. The bachelors of the Frey family seem to have been emptied out just like his own family, but unlike his own family, the Frey family is purely Walder Frey. The Marquis himself was afraid of death.

The vigilance in my heart raised again. A Frey who can have part of the authority of a bachelor can still greet him with a smile after Clay rejects him. Such a person is definitely worthy of attention.

Knowing that he still had something to say, Clay understood from the ambiguous smile on the corner of his mouth that he hadn't given up yet...
