Game of Thrones Overlord Conquest.

Chapter 69
The next day, that is, the second day after Mungo saw Ofer's rescue messenger, they returned to the source of the Varana River and began to move westward along the north bank of the river. They moved forward openly, but still very cautiously.

The scouts on horseback would first check the situation ahead, and the uninjured warriors were evenly distributed on both sides, especially the northern flank, because that direction was the town of Sehoru in Volantis.

Of course, Mungo would not just sit back and watch the troops trapped in the ruins of Sa Meer fall, but no one knew what they would encounter before they reached their goal. He could not blindly step into the enemy's trap with the [-] cavalry behind him.

His mood at this time was as bad as the current weather.

The strong wind was still raging, the torrential rain was in a line, the rain pillars were flying all over the sky, the dark sky seemed to be collapsing, and the Varanna River was also swollen violently.

In any case, as they marched through the muddy and windy weather, the morale of the whole army was gradually low, and as their bodies became more and more clammy, this situation became more and more serious.

Meng Ge had no choice but to order to rest on the spot. There was no tent to shelter from the wind and rain, and there was no dry fuel to build a bonfire. The soldiers drove the horses together, hid them in a group under the horse's belly to keep warm, and chewed the hard-as-stone jerky to recover. physical strength.

It was almost dawn on the second day after leaving the Varana River that they encountered the enemy for the first time, a rather weak force composed of free knights and slave sailors.

In fact, these so-called free knights were hired swordsmen equipped with horses, mostly serving as scouts or light cavalry in the mercenary regiment, a group of depraved outlaw lunatics.

These people strenuously rowed two oar boats up the river, wanting to explore an accidental remnant of war, and that place happened to be the place where Mongol attacked Bono's troops.

As soon as they landed, their whereabouts were discovered by Mungo's scouts. A group of Dothraki cavalry bypassed the mound and attacked from the enemy's flank. Back to paddle boat.

So the search, which was difficult in itself, and which no one wanted to take part in, turned into a farce, with some of the enemy killed and the rest on their knees, and the two galleys and slave sailors captured along with it. Unfortunately, this brief victory could not boost the morale of the whole army.

Mungo did not order the cavalry to slaughter the captives and sacrifice the flag. The governor of the Volantis Tiger Party, Maracho Megia, stationed the army in the town of Veronses on the west bank of the Lorne River. If the enemy did not attack or retreat in time, how many The Slacks didn't have warships to cross the river, which made him feel powerless that he couldn't see and couldn't fight.

Now that he has these two rowing boats and slave sailors, although he doesn't know where they will be used in the future, at least there will be no more situations where he can't fight back. When the time is right, he will deal a heavy blow to the enemy.

This difficult march continued. On the third day after leaving the source of the Varanna River and the fourth day after starting from the battlefield of Sleeping Land, they finally arrived at the Varanna River and the Lorne River on the muddy ground. At the meeting point of the army, several days of storms made some of the troops so sick that they couldn't even ride their horses.

Mungo looked at them. At this moment, there was only guilt in his eyes instead of anger. These people were all Dothraki brave warriors. They should have followed him back to their hometown to enjoy the glory and wealth after victory. Now, But they had to face the terrible weather, and then go to fight the Volantenes to the death.

After a long time, the scattered scouts on horseback slowly ran back. They surrounded Mungo and reported what they had found.

"Khal, the Valyrian road from Volantis to the ruins of Thar Mele is open and in good condition, and the long bridge across the Varanna is not flooded, and no one It may be that the storm is too strong, and even the enemy's fleet is not wandering around to inspect."

"Kayo, I saw that those paddle warships are completely docked at the port of Vilonses Town, the ruins of Sa Mer. They should not be besieged by the enemy at this time."

A galley is a type of warship that is larger than a galley and has a higher tonnage. They are often equipped with siege weapons such as ballistas and trebuchets. As an aid, it is only docked in the port as a display.

Could it be the reason for the storm?Mongo was very puzzled.

What puzzled him even more was why the Volantenes hadn't destroyed or heavily guarded the long bridge. They were like sheep in an open fold, defenseless to be devoured by wolves.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help thinking that the figures of those free knights were because Volantis had hired more mercenary regiments, with plenty of troops, setting traps and waiting for them, or he was going to be like him, halfway across the border. hit.

Mungo didn't act rashly. He ordered the troops to gather and set up camp, avoiding the wind and rain as much as possible, and sent more scouts to investigate in the direction of Sa Meier and Volantis.

Bachelor Bas Potter once said that Malachor Megia was worthy of the name of a tiger, and after the opponent made a move, it was just a simple garrison, which just hit his weakness. This kind of old-fashioned ability made him very alert. He firmly believed that This Tiger Consul is more difficult to deal with than the previous enemies.

Time passed slowly, and the scouts who went to investigate never returned. However, the strong wind that was peeping, galloping, and howling like a wolf stopped silently, and the torrential rain became smaller and smaller, and gradually disappeared. The air seemed to condense, and although the sky was still gray, the temperature had risen.

Soon, the air began to flow again, but this time the wind came from the north, which brought a dry breath. The grayness of the sky seemed to be being washed by the wind, and it gradually became clear and bright. The wind and clouds changed, and the dawn came.

The sound of trampling muddy horseshoes sounded. Mungo rode on his horse and looked south. He witnessed every move of the scouting cavalry. They brought back a familiar Volantene with a tall body and a dark face. It was Ma Qiluo, the red-robed monk.

　The situation is much better today. I went to work during the day, and I arrived home at six o'clock. I have been typing, but don't wait for me. I haven't eaten the meal yet, so the post will be late.
