Game of Thrones: The Strongest Guoguang

Chapter 137 The Goodwill of the North

Rhaenila waved her hand, indicating that she was helpless.

We Targaryens have nothing to do with the story of your Lannister "glorious twins" becoming "evil twins"!
"If it were me, I wouldn't believe the story told by this old nanny." Tai Lan said with a wry smile, but as a twin, he did feel that he often heard whispers of unknown meaning. No one can understand him, including his own brother.

"That's just Tai Lan trying to gain attention!" His mother, Mrs. Keira, insisted that he made up a lie.

So he never told this story to anyone else.

Rhaenyla's reassurance relieved him a little, but only a little.

What he didn't notice was that Rhaenila had already quietly pulled away, and walked out of the camp with Tai Lan one after the other.

If it's not the Hooded King, but "Green Hand", Rhaenyla may still have an idea-Gals the Green Hand has a special power of abundance, which may be able to enhance Syracuse's Dionysian priesthood, but the Necromancer Morgan Bamford, Tylan is left to his own devices.

It's hopeless, wait for death!It was not easy for Rhaenyla to say that, so she found a reason to comfort him.

Whether it is Tyran or Tyrion, they are disfigured and intelligent, coupled with the characteristics of wearing a hood and being a prime minister, if there is no whispering, Rhaenyla would not believe it!
Just as the Long Night and the Son of Prophecy will actually happen, the legendary characters in Age of Heroes are not just background boards in some family histories,

Believe nothing, and it will only kill you.

"The Stark family brings you sincere greetings, Your Highness." White Harbor Manderly said with a simple and honest smile.

"Stark has made great contributions to defending the border. It is really hard work." The number of vassals who came to the banquet in the northern border was generally more than half that of the southern border.

Because the banquet is only a social attribute, nobility is not required to participate as in the succession ceremony.

The Lord of the Northern Territory stayed in the Northern Territory because of the savages going south to invade the border to prevent changes to the Great Wall.

However, the aristocrats of the territory a little closer to the south did not miss this event, such as the Manderly family in White Harbor, and this family is also a vassal who is extremely loyal to the Starr family.

They were expelled by the King of the Reach 1000 years ago in the War of Conquest, accepted by the North, and used their wealth to build a new city on the White Knife.

Their most recent political move was supporting Rhaenys and her son Lannor at the 101st Council.

"Your Highness, the savages going south is an old practice in the past, don't worry." Mandalay showed a naive smile, "I would also like to thank Your Highness for his strict law and discipline, and sent many good night watchman seedlings to Castle Black on the Great Wall. The North is grateful to you goodwill."

"It is also the responsibility of the royal family to protect the frontier." Rhaenyla smiled without showing her teeth, and nodded slightly.

"The Northern Territory is willing to establish a friendly relationship with you," Mandalay said softly. "This is also what Duke Rickon Stark means. He thinks you will be an outstanding queen."

The North are often silent in the affairs of the Seven Kingdoms, but no one can ignore their opinions, and the harsh climate makes them hard.

"Thank you for the support of the northern border. Duke Stark is an elder I have always respected. I remember that he brought me animal bone toys when I was young..."

Unlike the intrigue with Lannister, most people in the northern border have their meanings written on their faces. If they say something nice, they are sincere, but if they say something bad, they are reckless.

Ned Stark is a standard northerner... He brought his rectum to the extreme, so much so that when he came to King's Landing, he was plotted against by Littlefinger and Cersei.

But Rhaenyra likes this kind of personality—that's how generals and vassals should be, if everyone is Cersei, the Seven Kingdoms will be wiped out sooner or later.

No, the Earl of Mandalay explained why he came here,
"I don't know if His Highness intends...to form a Royal Fleet?" But when he passed by, he saw the Black Water Leader and the troops stationed by the Imperial Forest. It was a well-trained elite—Rhaenyla provided the soldiers with a lot of meat , Equipped with war horses, and distributed grain, it's hard not to be an elite!

Thanks to King Renrui's good foundation, the national treasury is in Rhaenyla's hands, and its value is no less than that of the dragon's horn: Whether it is taming the dragons that eat a lot, or feeding the war horses, and distributing salaries, it is a big expenditure.

The predecessors planted trees, and the descendants enjoyed the shade.Rhaenila has lost many years of development, which is why she got off to such a smooth start.

Although no amount of national treasury will be exhausted, the current financial pressure in King's Landing has not yet reached the red line. The previous practice of exchanging golden dragons for stability is a thing of the past—at that time Rhaenyla didn't even have a golden robe Master, so use external force.

"My two sons, Mediric and Toren, grew up in White Harbor and are familiar with maritime affairs. They are willing to contribute the sea power from the Mandalay family to His Royal Highness."

"This..." Rhaenyra mused.

"I really need military power on the ocean! White Harbor is a well-known port in the Seven Kingdoms. I must have my own experience in training the navy and building a fleet." It was a small surprise at the banquet. Someone gave me a pillow when I fell asleep.

Whether it is to protect territorial waters or have ideas for trading city-states, a navy is indispensable.

"If the Mandalay family has the second son and other members of the family, they can also be sent to King's Landing. Lord Mandalay also knows that I am short of manpower here."

Rhaenyla has always been a meritocracy, and her style of treating her subjects well has paid off.

No, someone will vote right away!
Mandalay's two sons are well-trained nobles who are familiar with water warfare. They want to achieve something in the Seven Kingdoms. Why is Rhaenyla the same? Mandalay is not needed to defend the bay in the north for the time being. Frozen land.

As for those freedmen who were taken away as slaves by the trading city-states going north, the northern border also hoped that they would catch as many as possible, so don't be lenient!

"Your Highness, I want to ask a question."

"Master Mandalay, please tell me." With the basis of cooperation, Rhaenila answered politely with a smile all over her face.

"His Royal Highness's fleet...does it rely on the Sea Serpent, or is it independent? If it's the latter, how should the ships of the fleet be obtained, and where will the sailors and soldiers be recruited..."

If you want to build your own fleet, you can't leave Sea Serpent and go to Mandalay. Although White Harbor is rich, it is not taken advantage of.

"The ships need some craftsmen from the shipyard. The ancient trees in the royal forest are good materials. As for the manpower, we should recruit from the nobles and select from the civilians experienced talents who are familiar with maritime affairs."

The shipbuilding industry of the trading city-state is the most developed. Myr and Tyrosh are both capitals of the shipbuilding industry. If Rhaenyra has a battle plan against them in the next step, she will give priority to capturing and capturing the workers and craftsmen of those shipyards. The kind of bounty for the head is of course the head that needs to be alive.

The trading cities may be in for a shock later - they used to capture the wildlings of Westeros, now it's the other way around and they're the ones hunting them!
The trading city-state is really fat, and the upcoming Narrow Sea War has given Rhaenyla a reasonable excuse to gain such war benefits!At this time, the offensive and defensive sides of the war have been misplaced. Even better, other city-states will stand by and watch.

Although the Kingdom of the Third Daughter is powerful, what they are facing is Targaryen with dragons.
