Chapter 198 Renly flees, the confrontation between the rivers, the bloody battle in the north
Duke Mace of Highgarden, Lady Olenna, Queen of Thorns, and Vilas, Heir of Highgarden, sat at the round table in the study.
Vilas worried: "It would be a huge mistake for House Tyrell to ally with Lannister."
The Duke of Mace spread his hands and said, "If we don't form an alliance with Lannister, what will we use against Stannis and Florent? Vilas, you have also seen that those foxes wearing garlands put the rose stag on the throne. I replaced the rose flag with a garland fox flag, which is the coat of arms of the Florent family!"
Vilas said disdainfully: "I admit that at the time in the hall, I saw the golden girl sprinkle a handful of gold powder and conjure those garland foxes. I was as shocked as you. Thinking about it carefully, it was just the witch of the golden girl." It's just a technique."
Lady Olenna said: "Even if the Golden Girl's witchcraft is fake, Florent's ambitions for Highgarden are real. Alister Florent is Stannis's Handlord, and they want to get out of here Lear, take Highgarden and the Reach."
"The situation forces us to form an alliance with the Lannisters."
Vilas was a little unhappy, "Lannisters are greedy, and they will use any means for their ends. I would rather form an alliance with Stark. Grandma, Wolf King Ed holds the army of the North, the Valley, the Riverlands, the Winter Wolf Army, and the Three Rivers Army. The young eagle army, the wildlings, the rock species and the Gaoshan clan all pledge their allegiance to the wolf king Ed."
"The most important thing is that Wolf King Ed is a decent man. Joining Wolf King Ed in the Reach can easily force Lannister, Stannis, and King Balon to surrender and end the war. Margaery can marry the Young Wolf Lord Robb."
Mrs. Olenna's face darkened, "It stands to reason that the Stark family is ancient and noble, and Ed can be crowned King of the North, King of the Valley, and even King of the Trident River, but he has not been crowned king. Now Ed's title is still the title of Prince Robert, the title of the Wolf King conferred by King Robert."
"If Ed becomes king, I can consider marrying Margaery to the young wolf lord Robb, and I can even consider letting you marry Sansa, but the problem is that Ed has not been crowned king. Even if Ed is crowned As a king, he is not the king on the Iron Throne. The purpose of the Tyrell family is to make Margaery the queen on the Iron Throne, and then give birth to a child of Tyrell blood. In the future, a Tyrell blood will be born. king."
Duke Mace said unhappily: "I even suspect that Ed and Stannis have formed an alliance. You see, Ed has never confronted Stannis, has he? With Ed having a large army in Harrenhal, Watched Stannis take the kingland. I heard that Oberyn the Red Viper went to the riverlands to fight alongside the Starks."
"After the outbreak of the civil war, Dorne has always maintained strict neutrality, but I don't believe that Prince Doran is asleep. He must be preparing for war and ready to invade the Reach at any time. The Dornish people have always been enemies of the Reach. Star Allied with Stannis, flirting with Dorn, Tyrell's enemy."
Mrs. Olenna said: "Veras, what your father said makes sense. We can only form an alliance with Lannister. Through marriage."
Vilas said depressedly: "Sir Kevan actually suggested that I marry Cersei. It is rumored that Cersei slept with a kingslayer. She also got together with many wild men. I heard that she raised several strong men as men in King's Landing." Pet, I don't want to marry that kind of femme fatale slut." Mainly the lame Vilas, worried that he would not be able to satisfy Cersei after marriage.
Lady Olenna touched her grandson Vilas with her old hand, "Don't worry, I won't let you marry the leftovers of Robert and James. The marriage between Tyrell and Lannister will be decided by Margaery The marriage to Joffrey is concluded. Then Margaery will be queen."
Vilas raised an eyebrow, "Grandmother, Margaery is the queen now, she is Renly's queen. Could it be that you regard Renly as a dead person?"
Olenna said disdainfully: "If you kill Renly, isn't Renly dead?"
Vilas said nervously, "Grandmother, are you really going to kill Renly?"
Olenna snorted softly, "Anyway, this trash Renly is no different from a corpse. We no longer provide His Majesty Renly with the golden wine from the Arbor Isle. His Majesty actually drank the ale with gusto. We were so blind back then After a while, I married Margaret to him."
The Duke of Mace said: "Margaery and Renly's marriage was witnessed by the monks and the nobles of the River Bend. They completed the wedding in front of the seven gods. Only by killing Renly can Margaery be released from here. rescued from a failed marriage."
Vilas sighed, "In addition to killing people, there are other ways to dissolve the engagement. Now that Renly has lost the support of the Tyrell family, his kingdom has already been destroyed. As a usurped king, in Stannis, Lannister In my eyes, Renly is guilty. Why don't you put Renly in black and send him to the Wall?"
"When Renly put on black clothes, he automatically gave up his family, family, and his marriage contract with Margaery was automatically dissolved. Renly also gave up his rights to Storm's End, Stormland and the Iron Throne. Believe Lannister and Stannis will be satisfied."
Olenna pursed her lips tightly, "I heard that the night watchman of the Great Wall of Impassable has almost become the personal armament of Wolf King Ed. If Renly goes to be the night watchman, Loras will definitely follow him. I don't want me The grandson, the Knight of Flowers, withered on the Great Wall."
Vilas thought for a while, "The oath of the bachelor organization can also make Renly break the engagement. My mother is from the Hightower family, and the Hightower family has a close relationship with the Academy City. I believe the Academy City will be happy to accept Renly and become a A bachelor, Renly becomes a bachelor, and the marriage contract with Margaery is automatically dissolved."
The Duke of Mace widened his inflatable fish-like eyes, "Maester Renly? It feels weird to think of Renly's hippie smile serving the lord in a certain castle."
Olenna said sharply: "If Renly becomes a maester, who knows if he will write a book describing his brief reign as king at Highgarden? Maybe he will describe in detail how he refused to taste Highgarden. I love the honey of the little roses in the garden, but I only love the chrysanthemums in the flowers. Forget it! I will never allow Renly to go out and talk nonsense."
Lord Mace agreed. "Renly must die, and he will be clean."
Vilas said depressedly: "Renly is a guest of Highgarden. He ate our bread and salt and lived under our roof. Killing him like this violates the rights of guests, and he will be cursed by the old and new gods." .”
Olenna showed a sinister smile, "Who said I would do it in Highgarden? I would drive Renly out of Highgarden and send someone to do it in the wilderness."
In Renly's bedroom, Brienne and Loras, the Knight of Flowers, stood by Renly's side. Renly sat on a straw bed in a dirty satin coat.
Vilas pushed the door open and lowered his voice.
"Your Majesty Renly, leave Highgarden quickly, my grandmother may kill you at any moment."
Loras was taken aback, "Why is grandma so cruel?"
Vilas said helplessly: "Highgarden has formed an alliance with Lannister. If His Majesty Renly still wants to survive, he should leave immediately!"
Renly was holding the rose and stag crown like a beggar.
"Villas, you are so kind, you are willing to call me a beggar your Majesty. You want me to leave, where can I go? The nobles of the Stormlands abandoned me, and the nobles of the River Bend also abandoned me. The end of the road is a clown, when I am in King's Landing, I should worship Yuetong as my teacher."
Brienne put her broad hand on Renly's shoulder, "Your Majesty, don't be depressed, please come with me, we will go to Tarth together. Tarth is my hometown, my father, Lord Selwyn, the evening star, His allegiance is to Stannis, but he will help us, and live in seclusion in the mountains of Tarth."
If she lived in seclusion in the mountains of Tarth, Brienne imagined that she could give Renly a bunch of babies.
Loras frowned, "Brennie, the Isle of Tarth is very close to Storm's End, if you hide His Majesty Renly in Tarth, Stannis will find out sooner or later. If you do this, you will not only harm His Majesty Renly If you lose your life, it will also implicate the Tas family."
"I suggest fleeing to Dorne and looking for a boat from there to go to the other side of the narrow sea. We can make money by being mercenaries in the disputed land and set up our own mercenary regiment. Why not Renly as a mercenary king?"
Renly thought for a while, "I will not go to Tarth, nor will I go to the other side of the narrow sea. Brienne, Loras, if you are willing to follow me, go north with me!"
Brienne was confused. "To the north?"
Renly nodded, "I want to seek refuge with Ed, the wolf king."
Loras said: "Wolf King Ed controls the northern region, the valleys and the riverlands, and holds a large army. However, he may not support His Majesty's cause, and he may not be willing to send troops for you to defend your crown!"
Renly spit on the crown in his hand, "It is this crown that has corrupted my soul, I will no longer pursue the crown, I will dedicate this expensive crown to Ed, and then, in Ed and take a position at my side. Loras, Brienne, you follow me not because of my crown?"
Brienne and Loras said in unison: "Of course not!"
Renly held Brienne and Loras' hands tightly, "You only know which grass is tough when the wind blows."
"Brennie, Loras, you follow me in adversity, stand the test, let's go north together! Follow Edd the wolf king and serve him. Ed has the dragon, the skinchanger army, and the giant , he will definitely be the final victor.”
Renly, Brienne, and Loras, with the help of Vilas, brought enough food and golden dragons, left Highgarden through the side gate of Highgarden, and headed north, towards the riverlands.
In Riverrun, a dozen civilians with their right feet cut off under the city wall were being bandaged by bachelors and nurses. Earl Roose Bolton looked at this scene with no expression, and Sir Edmure was furious.
"The Blood Mummers are ravaging the Riverlands, Vargo Hutt and the beasts are maiming the people of the Riverlands, Amory Lodge is massacring the Ant Village, and Gregor the Mountain is raping the women in the Roach Village .”
Since the Riverland has no danger to defend, the Western Territory can always send cavalry to plunder the Riverland, burn, kill and loot the villages in the Riverland, and turn the territories of the Vance Family, the Piper Family, and the Tully Family into A piece of scorched earth.
The most hateful thing is the Warriors. The common people call the "Warriors" the blood troupe. This is a mercenary group hired by Duke Tywin from the other side of the Narrow Sea. He likes to chop off the hands and feet of civilians and captives, and is a crippler.
Wag Hutt's subordinates are also very strange. He has an Utter monk who likes to rape little boys; Coben, the bachelor of the necklace, likes to use a knife to conduct living experiments, and those who fall into his hands will die.
The Magic Mountain, the subordinates of Amory Lodge and others, are also notorious.
Now Duke Tywin gathered in Golden Tooth City with a large army. The mad dogs he sent were light cavalry in groups of dozens of people, looting and burning everywhere, and then fled into the mountains of the western border.
The more Edmure thought about it, the more angry he became, "I demand to enter Golden Tooth City immediately and attack the western region."
The black fish Brynden said coldly: "Sir Edmure, you are not young, be more mature! Tywin released his mad dog Demon Mountain, Blood Troupe, Amory Lodge, just to anger us and attack Jin Yacheng. Under that western fortress, our army will suffer heavy casualties."
Edmure said bitterly: "Uncle, why don't we do nothing?"
It was Robb who answered, "Uncle, Prince Oberyn's band of Vipers, the Red Viper, killed many of the Mountain's soldiers, and our cavalry caused heavy casualties to the Blood Mummers, and we executed every one of the Blood Mummers' captives. The Lannisters will pay dearly for their rampage."
Edmure suppressed his anger, "But what I want is revenge. I hope to immediately bring the flames of war to the western region. I want to personally lead the troops to attack the western region!"
Robb said sharply: "Uncle, you don't have the right. Before my father went to the north, Sir Brynden and I were appointed commanders of the Riverlands."
Edmure said depressedly: "I am the heir to Riverrun and the Riverland."
Blackfish Brynden said: "Our army in the riverlands now comes from the valley, the riverlands and the north. Edmure, you are a good man, but you are not suitable for fighting. You stay in the castle. Robb and I will meet Against the Lannisters."
Robb, the black fish Brynden walked towards the camp outside Riverrun, and Robb said: "Sir Brynden, if we tell Sir Edmure the news that the mountain army in Boundless Stone City is about to attack the West, will he Take it easy?"
Blackfish Brynden said: "No, the sneak attack on the Western Territory from Huangshi City is a military secret. Edmure is not strict with his mouth. If you tell him, maybe he will tell his mistress, his prostitute, or his Those friends Marco Piper, Hugo Vance or Piwyn Frey."
Robb and Blackfish Brynden, with a thousand cavalry, left the camp to mop up the Tywin mad dogs who invaded the riverlands.
According to Ed's order, the Hejian Land has begun to rebuild the deserted stone city. In this castle, soldiers from the mountain tribes, northern mountain tribes, cavemen, night walkers, and rock species who are good at mountain warfare gathered.
There are wildling raiders who have climbed the Great Wall, such as Grieg, Erok, and Jarl, as well as skinchangers such as Gisela the goat girl, McCain the eagle king, Auriel, and Thorn the lynx woman.
This army will cross the mountains that border the Riverlands to the north of the Westlands, plundering mountain villages, gold and silver mines.If Tywin wanted to stop this army and protect the mining area in the northern part of the western region, he had to divide his troops northward from Golden Tooth City.
As a result, the strength of Golden Tooth City, the western fortress, was reduced, and the army of the wolf king under the city of Runliu had a chance to attack the western region.
Ed the wolf king took the giant eagle and the dragon to the north. He wanted to fight against the invading iron people on the west coast of the north. The military command of the river land was handed over to Robb and Brynden the black fish. Commander, Eddard has chosen Rickard Karstark, Lord of Kahoe City.
Harrenhal is not only an important military town, protecting the estuary of the Trident River and Ruby Beach Ferry, but also the castle where the dragon cub Koi, Hawkeye, and seven little griffins live. Ed's wife Caitlin and adopted son Robin The Duke, Lady Lysa, daughters Arya and Sansa also live in Harrenhal. In addition, Harrenhal also gathered more than 90 noble sons adopted by Ed in the riverlands and valleys.
Ed reused Blackfish Brynden, Robb, and Earl Rickard because of their loyalty and outstanding abilities. As for Roose Bolton, Theon and others who were worrying about their loyalty, they were not reused.
Edmure was abandoned because of his lack of ability. He was very depressed, and Roose Bolton said, "Sir Edmure, you are the heir to Riverrun, and you should protect your people. I think that Blackfish Brin Don and Robb, it's going too far not to let you lead the way."
Ed the wolf king rode a giant eagle and took the dragon to the north. He ordered Theon and Roose Bolton to serve in the army of Riverrun.Today's Roose Bolton obviously feels that he is not being reused. He is as depressed as Edmure and Theon.
However, Theon at least still has the respect of Robb, the young wolf lord, and Roose Bolton can only feel sorry for Edmure.
Edmure said depressedly: "What can I do? The Wolf King and Heiyu never give me a chance to lead troops."
Roose Bolton smiled, "You should take the initiative to fight for opportunities. The mad dogs sent by Duke Tywin are guerrillas at best. What's the difficulty in wiping out such enemies? You should take the initiative."
At this moment, Ferran and Domilik hurried back with a troop of cavalry.
Domilik saw Edmure and said quickly, "Sir Edmure, where are Brynden and Robb, the black fish?"
Edmure said: "They are leading troops out, tell me if you have anything to do!"
Ferran said: "We found the Kingslayer in the Whispering Forest area, and he led troops to plunder the villages in the Whispering Forest area. According to the news brought back by the scouts, the Kingslayer's cavalry has less than 200 people."
Roose Bolton's eyes lit up, "Sir Edmure, the opportunity has come. If you capture James the Kingslayer, the Wolf King will definitely value you."
Encouraged by Roose Bolton, Edmure immediately exploded with confidence, "I will immediately bring a thousand cavalry to hunt down the Kingslayer."
Phelan was puzzled: "Sir Edmure, I think we should ask Blackfish Brynden and Young Wolf Lord Robb for instructions."
Roose Bolton said: "The opportunity is fleeting. When the black fish Brynden and the young wolf master return, the Kingslayer will have fled back to the West."
Edmure and Ferran went to gather the cavalry, Domeric followed, and Roose Bolton stopped him.
"Domeric, you stay here."
Domilik was puzzled, "Father, it is a great honor to hunt and kill James the Kingslayer!"
Roose Bolton snorted, "Glory comes with great risks. Kingslayer James is no ordinary man. He has killed many good fighters on the battlefield. I will not allow you to take risks."
Domilik was puzzled, "Then why did you encourage Edmure and Ferran to attack?"
Roose Bolton lowered his voice, "Edmure is the heir to Riverrun, and it is his duty to protect the territory. As for Ferran, he is a poacher promoted by the Wolf King, and he should work for the Wolf King. You don't have to To take on such a dangerous foe as the Kingslayer."
Domilik shook his head, "Father, Ferran is my friend, and even the husband of my aunt Mrs. Barbaret. I will not let him face the Kingslayer alone. I will go and hunt the Kingslayer together with Ferran. "
Roose Bolton watched Domeric mount his horse and leave.Domilik is obviously much nobler than Ramsay Snow who stayed in the Dreadfort. Roose Bolton was very depressed when he thought that his son would grow more like Stark and become a member of the wolf pack.
In Warhorse City of Wolfsburg, where the stream flows into the sea, the Iron Islands Fleet used ballistas and catapults to smash gaps one after another in the city wall of Warhorse City. After a bloody siege, the castle fell into the hands of the Ironborn.
Asha watched the golden sea monster banner of the Greyjoy family flying over the top of Warhorse City, and the joy of the victor surged in her heart.
Ironmen took away armor, daggers, swords, and battle axes from the corpses of the dead enemies. Some ironmen knelt down and cut off the rings on the hands of the corpses with knives. This is "paying iron money", which is most praised by ironmen payment method.
The commander of the Warhorse City, Jax, was brought before Asha and Victarion. The direwolf crest on Jax's chest was pierced by a sharp arrow, and blood trickled down.
Asha glared at the commander of Wolf Castle, "If you want to survive, you must surrender."
Jakes spat out blood, "I am a member of the wolf king, a citizen of Stark, and I will never surrender. The wolf king will kill you all."
Aeron "Damphair" said grimly, "These savages who worship the weirwood heart tree must be dedicated to the Drowned God."
Afterwards, Priest Drowned God took several soldiers and drowned the commander of Warhorse City into the sea.
On the Rock Coast, the ironmen paid a high price to capture the Rock City of Wolf Castle. Then, Aeron "Damphair" drowned more than 30 soldiers of the Winter Wolf Army, including Desmond, the commander of the Rock City. " Aeron wanted to sacrifice more captives to the Drowned God, but Asha stopped him.
If you want to conquer the land of the northern border, you must win the hearts of the people. Drowning too many northern captives will only attract unnecessary hostility and make it more difficult for the ironborn to gain a foothold in the northern border.Obviously, Aeron "Damphair" didn't understand these things at all.
Although Rock City and Warhorse City fell into the hands of the ironmen, the damage to the city walls was serious. Once the northern border started to counterattack, how long could these castles last?
What disturbed Asha the most was the weirwood heart tree in Wolf Castle.In the Blacksmith City, Aeron Damphair ordered the godswood to be burned, and all the trees around the godswood were burned. Only the weirwood heart tree stood still in the flames. sea water.
Aeron Damphair thought it was the Drowned God who performed a miracle and spared the weirwood's life with sea water, a symbol of the Drowned God's kindness to the old gods.However, Asha was not convinced, it was more like a miracle of the old gods.
After the capture of Rock City, Aeron Damphair ordered the Ironborn soldier Falk to chop down the weirwood heart tree in the godswood forest with an axe. The weirwood heart tree oozes sap like blood. After dropping his hand, the sharp ax cut off half of Falk's foot. Falk screamed and died of wound infection the next day.
The ironborn began to whisper, thinking it was a curse from the Old Gods.
Now that he has won the third Wolf Castle, the Warhorse City in the Streamland, Aeron Damphair has learned his lesson and dare not provoke the godswood here.
Victarion looked at the dilapidated castle, "What stupid name do the northerners give to the castle, Warhorse City? Why is it called that?"
The one who answered was Roderick Harlow, "The Reader", the lord of Harlow Island and Asha's uncle.
"The Streamland is an important war horse production area in the north, and this is the territory of the Ryswell family. The war horses here are widely loved by the knights of the Green Land in the tournaments in the south, and they are better than the horses of our Iron Islands. too much."
The ironmen of the Iron Islands are used to riding boats, not horses. People ride on the island, usually the smaller Harlow pony.Therefore, there were no decent cavalry in the Iron Islands, and Asha began to worry, if the cavalry from the stream attacked Warhorse City in large numbers, how would the Ironborn resist by relying on the dilapidated city wall?
Asha said: "The city wall must be repaired quickly."
Victarion looked to the north, "It turned out to be a war horse production area. I heard that the old Earl of Lathwell ruled this land. His sons should have gone south with Ed to fight. I want to take the ships to capture Stream Castle, and use sword and fire to sweep the territory of the Laswell family."
Asha said: "Third uncle, let's let the stream land go first! We still need to conquer Shuguangwang. That castle is the strongest and largest among the wolf castles on the west coast of the northern border. I heard that the illegitimate son of the wolf king, Jon Xue Nuo personally defends Shuguangwang, a tough battle is waiting for us."
Victarion said disdainfully: "What battle has that bastard fought? I can easily take Dawnwatch."
"The Reader" Rodrik said: "Commander of the Iron Fleet, if it were me, I would not despise Jon Snow. I heard that this Jon Snow followed the Wolf King to participate in the conquest of rock species, and conquered the world beyond the Great Wall." In the war, the wolf king went south and appointed Governor Jon Snow to the north, it must be because of his excellence."
"Don't forget, Jon Snow has a direwolf in his hand."
Victarion said contemptuously: "Reader, a little wolf cub scares you? Ed is far away in the riverlands. As long as we occupy Dawn Watch and Cailin Bay, Ed will return No more northern borders."
Asha said: "In any case, the most important thing is to quickly capture Shuguangwang."
In the Riverlands, Edmure hunted down the Westland cavalry led by James the Kingslayer in the Whispering Forest.
There were less than 200 cavalry in the western region. In order to surround the enemy, Edmure divided the [-] cavalry into multiple teams and attacked in turn.
James had golden hair, wore gold-plated armor and a golden sword, led the cavalry from the west, broke out of the encirclement, and fled westward all the way.
Domilik and Edmure's cavalry team chased and killed the Kingslayer, and when they came to a hill, Domeric said, "Sir Edmure, we should wait for the other cavalry team to join forces and hunt the Kingslayer together. It's too dangerous to pursue like this." , it is easy to be ambushed, and our cavalry has less than 300 people."
Sir Edmure smiled confidently, "A lot of Kingslayer's cavalry have died, and it is estimated that there are less than 100 of them at this moment. I must capture him alive. I captured Kingslayer alive, look at Robb and Blackfish What would Lyndon say."
Edmure insisted on pursuing, so Domilik had no choice but to continue to follow. He hoped that Ferran would arrive quickly with the cavalry, and Ferran had more cavalry in his hands.
After night fell, Edmure and Domilik chased the Kingslayer and came to a barren hill. Suddenly, arrows were fired, and the cavalry around Domilik fell off their horses screaming.
At this time, the kingslayers in gold-plated armor and the cavalry from the west began to pour out from all directions of the barren hills, and Edmure was frightened.
Edmure's horse was shot by a sharp arrow and fell off the horse. Domilik gave the horse to Edmure.
"Sir Edmure, our hunting action has made us prey, let's run!"
Edmure got on the horse, "Domeric, what are you doing?"
Domilik said: "I will find a way to escape." Domilik whipped the horse, and the horse fled eastward with Edmure.
A cavalryman in the western region brandished a spear and stabbed at Domilik. Domilik leaped into the air, stepped on the spear and flew onto the horse's back, and stabbed the cavalryman to death with a sword. Domilik threw the body off the horse and took the enemy's horse, just as he was about to escape , two cavalry blocked the way.
Domilik hacked to death a cavalryman with a hooded coat of arms engraved on his breastplate, and then faced a knight of the Kreher family with a spotted wild boar on his breastplate. Domeric cut off the enemy's right hand with his long sword, and the enemy screamed and died .
The cold arrow swished, and Domilik's plate armor was shot through. He felt a sticky right arm, and blood flowed out.
A figure flashed past, and James the Kingslayer rushed over on his horse, knocking Domeric off his horse.
The shadow of Jaime the Kingslayer looms over Domeric.
James met Domilik at the Tournament in King's Landing, and he said, "Boy Skinner, your skills are good! I originally wanted to kill Edmure, the heir to Riverrun, but since the heir to the Dreadfort came, we also We have to make do with it."
"Arrest Domilik and take him back to the Western Territory!"
Looking at the dawn at the mouth of the deserted mound, people are panicking.
In the past few days, the news brought by the ravens has become more terrifying than the last. Blacksmith City at Kraken Point, Rock City at Rock Coast, and Warhorse City at Streamland all fell under the attack of the Iron Islands fleet.
The black wings brought black news, and the soldiers in the castle were all depressed.
Jon stood at the head of the city, and the young soldier Harkley said: "We should let the Northern Fleet meet the enemy. Relying on Wolf Castle alone will not be able to stop the attack of the Ironborn."
Facing the army of the Iron Islands, Jon chose the strategy of avoiding war and protecting the ship, because the fleet on the west coast of the northern border could not contend with the Iron Fleet, let alone the army of the Iron Islands fleet.
Although the Wolf Castles in various places have fallen, the west coast fleet and fishing boats in the northern border have all hidden in the upper reaches of the barren mound river. As long as the dawn at the mouth of the barren mound river is guarded, the northern border can still keep the ships of the west coast fleet so that they can counterattack the Ironmen in the future .
Another young soldier, Strawhead, said: "Maybe it's because Helen the iron bitch betrayed us and let the iron people go to defend Wolf's Castle, and this will happen."
Jon Snow said: "It is very likely that Helen took her ironmen and died fighting for the northern border. It would be unfair to Helen to blame her at this time."
Mrs. Ballet said worriedly: "Warhorse City has fallen, and I am worried that the Ironborn will plunder my father's streamland."
Jon Snow said: "Don't worry, the enemy's goal is the Moat Cailin, the throat of the north. The Streamland means nothing to the Ironborn. To attack Moat Cailin, they have to pass by Dawn Look, I deduce The next goal of the people must be Shuguangwang."
Facing the terrified eyes, Jon Snow knew that he must encourage the soldiers and summon their courage.
"The iron men captured three wolf castles, but they suffered heavy casualties. Every time they occupied a castle, they divided their troops to stay behind. Moreover, when the iron men attacked the castle, the walls of the wolf castle were seriously damaged. The northern border may take back these wolf castles at any time. .”
"I have already ordered Earl Barack Flint of Flint's Finger to wait for an opportunity to recapture the Blacksmith City at Kraken Point. We have ambushes on the Flint Cliff, and these soldiers will harass the Blacksmith City day and night."
"At this moment, Rambad Taoha, the acting city lord of the Taoha family, and Benford Taoha, the heir of Torun Square City, have led troops to the Rock Coast, waiting for an opportunity to capture Rock City."
"The Earl of Rythwell in Streamland is also mobilizing cavalry and siege troops. Once the main force of the Iron Islands attacks Dawnwatch to the east, enters the Heat Wave River, and marches towards Cailin Bay, Streamland will be able to take back Warhorse City!"
Hope gradually ignited in the eyes of the soldiers. Jon Snow said: "After the iron people captured Blacksmith City, Rock City and Warhorse City, they came to the city of Dawnwatch. In Wolf Castle, the strongest fortress, the Ironborn invaders are destined to be defeated here!"
In King's Landing, Cersei sits on the Iron Throne, and Prince Rhaegar and Deathstorm stand guard at the entrance of the Iron Throne stairs.
The necromancer Ogbetta and the grand maester Pycelle stood in the hall, and the keels of the Targaryen family filled all directions of the throne room.
Ogbeta was dressed in black, hunched over, holding a skeleton scepter in his hand.Grand Maester Pycelle is a little hunchbacked and dressed in a gray robe.
A few days ago, Grand Maester Pycelle was still putting on airs and asked to return to the Academy City so that the Academy would send a new Grand Maester to replace Pycelle, but Cersei flatly rejected Pycelle's request.
Today's Pycelle is old, and the old trash may hang up at any time. Fortunately, Ogbeta can resurrect the dead.Cersei intends that once Pycelle dies, Ogbetta will resurrect him and continue to serve Cersei.
Cersei is going to ask Pycelle to write a book called "Cersei's Conquest", which must be better than Aegon's conquest of the Seven Kingdoms.
The keel behind the Iron Throne is the largest. It comes from the mount of Aegon the Conqueror, Balerion. Balerion is also the largest dragon in the history of Westeros. He can swallow a mammoth in one bite. elephant.
Cersei stared at the necromancer Ogbetta, "When will we be able to resurrect these dragons?"
Ogbeta said: "Your Majesty, strictly speaking, the resurrected dragon skeletons are not magic dragons, but frost dragons. They have no flesh and blood, and the dragon flames they spew out are ice."
Grand Maester Paicell stroked the necklace on his neck, "With all due respect, there is no mention of the Frost Dragon in any books about magic dragons."
Ogbeta said contemptuously: "Old man, there are no records in the books. Is there no such thing in the world? Your books also record that giants, skinchangers, dragons, giant eagles and griffins are all extinct. Now, all these things are gone." Appeared in Westeros."
Grand Maester Pycelle frowned, "Is the Griffin reborn too?"
Ogbetta nodded, "The masterpiece of the wolf king Ed, he hatched the river dragon koi and the valley dragon Hawkeye in Harrenhal, and also hatched seven griffins. Old man, while you are still studying hard Ben, when studying history, Wolf King Ed is making history, but you don't know it."
Grand Maester Pycelle's eyes widened, "Where did you get this information from?" After Varys disappeared, Ogbeta became the chief intelligence officer.
Ogbeta said: "The cold god I serve told me that in the dark, I can see what happened in the distance."
Cersei clenched her hands, "In this way, Ed has three dragons in his hand, and Ed is strong and strong. Even if I have such strong men as Deathstorm and Prince Rhaegar, I may not be Ed's opponent."
Ogbeta said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. The Night King outside the Great Wall is recruiting troops. When winter comes, the Night King will break through the Great Wall of Desperation and attack the northern border. Ed's hometown is destined to become a paradise for the dead."
Cersei's eyes flickered with suspicion, "Who is this Night King? Is he also a servant sent to me by the Cold God?"
Ogberta suppressed a smile, "Yes, without a doubt."
Cersei said: "Waiting for winter, I don't know how long it will be. I heard that Daenerys, the sister of the beggar king Viserys, also hatched three dragons in Essos. Why are there so many demons now?" Dragon? This bitch will definitely bring the dragon to attack Westeros in the future. We must quickly resurrect the frost dragon, Ogbeta, I order you, act now."
Ogbeta grinned ugly.
"Your Majesty, to revive the Frost Dragon requires powerful magical power. Only by destroying the statues of the Seven Gods on the Baelor Cathedral can the God of Cold be pleased."
These days, Grand Maester Pycelle is becoming more and more afraid of Ogbeta, and he has learned to protest the necromancer tactfully.
"I don't think it's good to do this. Many people in King's Landing are believers of the Seven Gods. Knights from all over Westeros and people from all walks of life mostly worship the Seven Gods. The one who destroyed the Baelor Cathedral I am afraid it will arouse public anger."
Cersei sneered, "If I can resurrect the Frost Dragon, all the people in Westeros will kneel and tremble at my feet. What's the public anger? Ogbeta, as long as you can bring me back the Frost Dragon , I give you permission to destroy the Great Sept of Baelor."
Looking at the dawn, a huge trebuchet was parked on the towering city wall. The giant moved a huge stone and put it on the trebuchet. The other giants pulled the lever together, and the boulder drew an arc and fell, smashing through an ironman ship in an instant. long boat.
Jon stood on the wall, calling the shots.
"The range of our trebuchets far exceeds that of the Ironborn. As long as we aim at the ironborn siege equipment on the coast and hit hard, the enemy will not be able to get close to the city wall!"
As soon as the ironmen's catapults and ballistas arrived on the shore, they were hit by huge stones. Many ironmen were smashed into meatloaf, and even some ships on the sea were hit by huge stones.
Asha stood on the deck of the Invincible Iron, observing the situation at the top of the city with a captured telescope, and said depressedly: "There are at least three giant trebuchets on the city wall of Dawnwatch. These are trebuchets operated by giants. Ours The trebuchet has a far worse range than the giant trebuchet."
While speaking, two more ironborn longships were hit by boulders and began to flood and sink. Some ironborn screamed and began to jump into the sea.
"The Reader" Rodrik said: "Dawn Lookout looks higher than the walls of Warhorse City and Rock City. This castle is very difficult to capture. Why not send ships to block the mouth of the river and attack Cailin Bay directly."
Iron Fleet Commander Victarion shook his head stubbornly, "No, according to the captives, the Blacksmith City at Kraken Point, the Rock City at Rock Coast, and the Warhorse City at Streamland all sent their ships to the upper reaches of the Barren Mound River. Shu Guangwang just strangles the mouth of the Huangzuo River, as long as this castle is captured, those ships will all belong to the iron people."
"The Reader" Rodrik looked at the fleet behind him, and the ships of the Ironborn stretched to the end of his vision.
"Even if you want to capture this castle, there's no need for so many ironmen longships to wait on the Saltspear Beach, right? You can send a fleet to scout the Red Wave River to see if the enemy has any defenses. "
To capture Moat Cailin, the ironborn would have to travel up the Heatwave, a river that rises from the Neck.After arriving at the source of the Heat Wave River, the ironborn were less than half a day's ride away from the northern fortress of Kalin Bay, which could easily threaten Kalin Bay.
Victarion agreed, and he called Raff Kenning.
"Take ten long boats, go to the Redang River, and clear the obstacles on the river."
Laffer Kenning said excitedly: "Commander, I believe that the enemy of Kalin Bay is vulnerable, maybe when you capture Shuguangwang and set off for Kalin Bay, we will have already captured Kalin Bay. "
Victarion said angrily: "The ironmen attacked Wolf's Castle on Saltspear Flat. Moat Calim must have been warned. Besides, the Heat Wave River is the territory of the Swamp Devil. Don't underestimate the enemy. Your order is to investigate and remove obstacles. Things, you are not allowed to attack rashly."
Laffer Definitely sailed towards the Heat Wave River with ten long boats.
The range of the giant trebuchet on the city wall at dawn covered the planned landing point of the ironborn. As long as the ironborn's siege equipment was pushed onto the beach, it would be hit by boulders within a short distance. The beach was full of ironborn corpses , brains, blood stained the beach.
Seeing that the siege equipment could not approach Dawnwatch, Victarion and Asha ordered the ironman longships to land from beyond the range of the enemy's catapults, and then launched a desperate charge towards the city wall of Dawnwatch.
Jon Snow mobilized crossbowmen and shot from the battlements and arrow towers. The arrows were like locusts. to rockfall and boiling oil attacks.
The battle lasted until dusk, and more and more ironmen died in battle. The bodies of the ironmen stretched from under the city wall at dawn to the seashore.
Victarion suppressed his anger, "Jon the bastard, he will only be a turtle on the wall."
"The Reader" Rodrik said: "Victarion, the Ironborn are not good at siege, and the ironborn's siege equipment cannot threaten Shuguangwang. It is doomed that the Ironborn will not be able to capture this wolf castle. Hurry up! Go and attack Cailin Bay! Are so many Ironborn warriors going to die for a mere Wolf Castle?"
Asha echoed, "Yes! Third Uncle, just leave a fleet behind and seal off the waters beyond Dawn."
Victarion was helpless, he left the ships of the Humberly family and the Cowd family, blocked the mouth of the Barren River, the Iron Fleet and the Harlow family, the Blacktys family, the Botley family, and the Drumstick family , the ship of the Gubler family, headed towards the Relang River.
Jon Snow on the top of the city saw the Iron Islands fleet marching towards the Heatwave River, and immediately found Mrs. Ballerina and Commander Shad.
"You two hold on to Dawn Watch. I'm going to the upper reaches of the Heatwave River to prevent the Ironborn from attacking Cailin Bay."
Jon Snow took Ygritte, twenty cavalrymen and Bai Ling, and galloped towards the upper reaches of the Heat Wave River.
The giant eagle prince Michu, the wolf king Ed and the giant eagle princess Bertha, with more than 30 giant eagles, flew over the endless Neck in the dark night, and they were already close to the Relang River and the Saltspear Beach.The magic dragon and flying wolf followed closely.
In order to rush to the west coast of the northern border in time, Ed, Michu and Bertha kept switching to giant eagles, changing one when a giant eagle was tired, non-stop day and night, and finally arrived near the Relang River.
Under the bright moonlight, Ed sucked the power of nature in the air, he smelled the smell of blood, sea salt and sea breeze, and the smell of iron.It was the smell of chainmail and ringmail on the Ironmen on the Iron Islands longship.
Asha stood on the bow of the Black Wind, and she noticed that the mouth of the Relang River was surrounded by dense forests, and the river channel was obviously much narrower than that of the Barren Mound River. The Iron Fleet and many ships had all entered the Relang River.
Jon led the cavalry and ran all the way to a camp on the upper reaches of the Heatwave River.
"The fleet of the Ironborn is sailing up the Heatwave River, quickly putting our ships into the Heatwave River."
The soldiers untied the cables of the canoes full of wildfires and the dilapidated fishing boats, and the water carried the boats and rushed downstream.
In the darkness, Laffer Kenning, who commanded the scouting longboat, stood at the bow and saw the canoe floating in the distance. He laughed and said, "The barbarians from the north actually used the canoe to sneak attack? I laughed so hard."
The first officer at the side said: "No, there are some boats following behind."
Under the moonlight, Laffer Kenning set up an arbor with his hands, and said disdainfully: "They are all canoes, fishing boats, this kind of beggar fleet, how could it be the opponent of the ironman longboat? However, it seems that they are all empty boats. What's the situation?"
After the first canoe approached, Laffer Kenning ordered the Ironborn to hook the canoe with a grapple, and the canoe was full of thick green sticky substances.
Laffer Kenning picked up the torch and jumped into the canoe to check. He grabbed a handful of viscous substance with his hand and held it to the torch to observe, "What the hell is this?"
In an instant, the wildfire on the canoe exploded, and Laffer Kenning screamed, his whole body was swallowed by emerald green flames, his eyes burst like jelly, his flesh and blood melted, the longboat was swallowed by emerald flames, and the ironborn died. It's called Lianlian, some people dive into the water to survive, but even the river is burning.
Down the river, canoes, fishing boats, and wine barrels loaded with wildfires set the entire Heat Wave River on fire.
Standing on the Invincible Ironborn, Victarion saw the longship ahead ablaze and engulfed in green flames, startled, "What is this?"
Roderick, a scholar on the Shuxiang ship, said in astonishment: "This is wildfire! The excrement of the alchemist, everyone, go ashore and escape!"
Longships burned one after another, and the ironmen fled directly after the smaller longships landed. Big ships like the Gray Wind, the Invincible Ironborn, and the Scholar could only row downstream desperately, and behind them had become Purgatory of wildfire.
However, to the despair of the ironmen longboats, iron chains appeared at the mouth of the Relang River. This is the iron chain assembled after dismantling the giant's chain mail. The giant Wang Wang brought five giants, and there were three giants on the left and right sides of the river. , pulled up the underwater iron chain, tied it to a big tree in the forest, and blocked the retreat of the Ironborn fleet.
The longboats crashed into the iron chain one after another, and the wildfire behind them was approaching. The green flames were so hot, like torches between heaven and earth, and the sky turned emerald.
At this time, the roar of the magic dragon came from the air, and the magic dragon, flying wolf and giant eagle appeared.
The magic dragon and flying wolf bathed the boats in the heat wave river with dragon flames, setting fire to one long boat after another. The wings of the giant eagle stirred up the storm, and the wildfire swept downstream.
Some of the ironborn began to take off their chainmail, ringmail, and jump into the sea to escape.
Longships burned one after another, the entire Heat Wave River boiled, and the Iron Islands fleet was being wiped out.
Thank you, Afeng, I am a cat who talks a lot, Zhang Wulang, who turned the world around, sent out the monthly ticket, thank you for your support!
(End of this chapter)
Duke Mace of Highgarden, Lady Olenna, Queen of Thorns, and Vilas, Heir of Highgarden, sat at the round table in the study.
Vilas worried: "It would be a huge mistake for House Tyrell to ally with Lannister."
The Duke of Mace spread his hands and said, "If we don't form an alliance with Lannister, what will we use against Stannis and Florent? Vilas, you have also seen that those foxes wearing garlands put the rose stag on the throne. I replaced the rose flag with a garland fox flag, which is the coat of arms of the Florent family!"
Vilas said disdainfully: "I admit that at the time in the hall, I saw the golden girl sprinkle a handful of gold powder and conjure those garland foxes. I was as shocked as you. Thinking about it carefully, it was just the witch of the golden girl." It's just a technique."
Lady Olenna said: "Even if the Golden Girl's witchcraft is fake, Florent's ambitions for Highgarden are real. Alister Florent is Stannis's Handlord, and they want to get out of here Lear, take Highgarden and the Reach."
"The situation forces us to form an alliance with the Lannisters."
Vilas was a little unhappy, "Lannisters are greedy, and they will use any means for their ends. I would rather form an alliance with Stark. Grandma, Wolf King Ed holds the army of the North, the Valley, the Riverlands, the Winter Wolf Army, and the Three Rivers Army. The young eagle army, the wildlings, the rock species and the Gaoshan clan all pledge their allegiance to the wolf king Ed."
"The most important thing is that Wolf King Ed is a decent man. Joining Wolf King Ed in the Reach can easily force Lannister, Stannis, and King Balon to surrender and end the war. Margaery can marry the Young Wolf Lord Robb."
Mrs. Olenna's face darkened, "It stands to reason that the Stark family is ancient and noble, and Ed can be crowned King of the North, King of the Valley, and even King of the Trident River, but he has not been crowned king. Now Ed's title is still the title of Prince Robert, the title of the Wolf King conferred by King Robert."
"If Ed becomes king, I can consider marrying Margaery to the young wolf lord Robb, and I can even consider letting you marry Sansa, but the problem is that Ed has not been crowned king. Even if Ed is crowned As a king, he is not the king on the Iron Throne. The purpose of the Tyrell family is to make Margaery the queen on the Iron Throne, and then give birth to a child of Tyrell blood. In the future, a Tyrell blood will be born. king."
Duke Mace said unhappily: "I even suspect that Ed and Stannis have formed an alliance. You see, Ed has never confronted Stannis, has he? With Ed having a large army in Harrenhal, Watched Stannis take the kingland. I heard that Oberyn the Red Viper went to the riverlands to fight alongside the Starks."
"After the outbreak of the civil war, Dorne has always maintained strict neutrality, but I don't believe that Prince Doran is asleep. He must be preparing for war and ready to invade the Reach at any time. The Dornish people have always been enemies of the Reach. Star Allied with Stannis, flirting with Dorn, Tyrell's enemy."
Mrs. Olenna said: "Veras, what your father said makes sense. We can only form an alliance with Lannister. Through marriage."
Vilas said depressedly: "Sir Kevan actually suggested that I marry Cersei. It is rumored that Cersei slept with a kingslayer. She also got together with many wild men. I heard that she raised several strong men as men in King's Landing." Pet, I don't want to marry that kind of femme fatale slut." Mainly the lame Vilas, worried that he would not be able to satisfy Cersei after marriage.
Lady Olenna touched her grandson Vilas with her old hand, "Don't worry, I won't let you marry the leftovers of Robert and James. The marriage between Tyrell and Lannister will be decided by Margaery The marriage to Joffrey is concluded. Then Margaery will be queen."
Vilas raised an eyebrow, "Grandmother, Margaery is the queen now, she is Renly's queen. Could it be that you regard Renly as a dead person?"
Olenna said disdainfully: "If you kill Renly, isn't Renly dead?"
Vilas said nervously, "Grandmother, are you really going to kill Renly?"
Olenna snorted softly, "Anyway, this trash Renly is no different from a corpse. We no longer provide His Majesty Renly with the golden wine from the Arbor Isle. His Majesty actually drank the ale with gusto. We were so blind back then After a while, I married Margaret to him."
The Duke of Mace said: "Margaery and Renly's marriage was witnessed by the monks and the nobles of the River Bend. They completed the wedding in front of the seven gods. Only by killing Renly can Margaery be released from here. rescued from a failed marriage."
Vilas sighed, "In addition to killing people, there are other ways to dissolve the engagement. Now that Renly has lost the support of the Tyrell family, his kingdom has already been destroyed. As a usurped king, in Stannis, Lannister In my eyes, Renly is guilty. Why don't you put Renly in black and send him to the Wall?"
"When Renly put on black clothes, he automatically gave up his family, family, and his marriage contract with Margaery was automatically dissolved. Renly also gave up his rights to Storm's End, Stormland and the Iron Throne. Believe Lannister and Stannis will be satisfied."
Olenna pursed her lips tightly, "I heard that the night watchman of the Great Wall of Impassable has almost become the personal armament of Wolf King Ed. If Renly goes to be the night watchman, Loras will definitely follow him. I don't want me The grandson, the Knight of Flowers, withered on the Great Wall."
Vilas thought for a while, "The oath of the bachelor organization can also make Renly break the engagement. My mother is from the Hightower family, and the Hightower family has a close relationship with the Academy City. I believe the Academy City will be happy to accept Renly and become a A bachelor, Renly becomes a bachelor, and the marriage contract with Margaery is automatically dissolved."
The Duke of Mace widened his inflatable fish-like eyes, "Maester Renly? It feels weird to think of Renly's hippie smile serving the lord in a certain castle."
Olenna said sharply: "If Renly becomes a maester, who knows if he will write a book describing his brief reign as king at Highgarden? Maybe he will describe in detail how he refused to taste Highgarden. I love the honey of the little roses in the garden, but I only love the chrysanthemums in the flowers. Forget it! I will never allow Renly to go out and talk nonsense."
Lord Mace agreed. "Renly must die, and he will be clean."
Vilas said depressedly: "Renly is a guest of Highgarden. He ate our bread and salt and lived under our roof. Killing him like this violates the rights of guests, and he will be cursed by the old and new gods." .”
Olenna showed a sinister smile, "Who said I would do it in Highgarden? I would drive Renly out of Highgarden and send someone to do it in the wilderness."
In Renly's bedroom, Brienne and Loras, the Knight of Flowers, stood by Renly's side. Renly sat on a straw bed in a dirty satin coat.
Vilas pushed the door open and lowered his voice.
"Your Majesty Renly, leave Highgarden quickly, my grandmother may kill you at any moment."
Loras was taken aback, "Why is grandma so cruel?"
Vilas said helplessly: "Highgarden has formed an alliance with Lannister. If His Majesty Renly still wants to survive, he should leave immediately!"
Renly was holding the rose and stag crown like a beggar.
"Villas, you are so kind, you are willing to call me a beggar your Majesty. You want me to leave, where can I go? The nobles of the Stormlands abandoned me, and the nobles of the River Bend also abandoned me. The end of the road is a clown, when I am in King's Landing, I should worship Yuetong as my teacher."
Brienne put her broad hand on Renly's shoulder, "Your Majesty, don't be depressed, please come with me, we will go to Tarth together. Tarth is my hometown, my father, Lord Selwyn, the evening star, His allegiance is to Stannis, but he will help us, and live in seclusion in the mountains of Tarth."
If she lived in seclusion in the mountains of Tarth, Brienne imagined that she could give Renly a bunch of babies.
Loras frowned, "Brennie, the Isle of Tarth is very close to Storm's End, if you hide His Majesty Renly in Tarth, Stannis will find out sooner or later. If you do this, you will not only harm His Majesty Renly If you lose your life, it will also implicate the Tas family."
"I suggest fleeing to Dorne and looking for a boat from there to go to the other side of the narrow sea. We can make money by being mercenaries in the disputed land and set up our own mercenary regiment. Why not Renly as a mercenary king?"
Renly thought for a while, "I will not go to Tarth, nor will I go to the other side of the narrow sea. Brienne, Loras, if you are willing to follow me, go north with me!"
Brienne was confused. "To the north?"
Renly nodded, "I want to seek refuge with Ed, the wolf king."
Loras said: "Wolf King Ed controls the northern region, the valleys and the riverlands, and holds a large army. However, he may not support His Majesty's cause, and he may not be willing to send troops for you to defend your crown!"
Renly spit on the crown in his hand, "It is this crown that has corrupted my soul, I will no longer pursue the crown, I will dedicate this expensive crown to Ed, and then, in Ed and take a position at my side. Loras, Brienne, you follow me not because of my crown?"
Brienne and Loras said in unison: "Of course not!"
Renly held Brienne and Loras' hands tightly, "You only know which grass is tough when the wind blows."
"Brennie, Loras, you follow me in adversity, stand the test, let's go north together! Follow Edd the wolf king and serve him. Ed has the dragon, the skinchanger army, and the giant , he will definitely be the final victor.”
Renly, Brienne, and Loras, with the help of Vilas, brought enough food and golden dragons, left Highgarden through the side gate of Highgarden, and headed north, towards the riverlands.
In Riverrun, a dozen civilians with their right feet cut off under the city wall were being bandaged by bachelors and nurses. Earl Roose Bolton looked at this scene with no expression, and Sir Edmure was furious.
"The Blood Mummers are ravaging the Riverlands, Vargo Hutt and the beasts are maiming the people of the Riverlands, Amory Lodge is massacring the Ant Village, and Gregor the Mountain is raping the women in the Roach Village .”
Since the Riverland has no danger to defend, the Western Territory can always send cavalry to plunder the Riverland, burn, kill and loot the villages in the Riverland, and turn the territories of the Vance Family, the Piper Family, and the Tully Family into A piece of scorched earth.
The most hateful thing is the Warriors. The common people call the "Warriors" the blood troupe. This is a mercenary group hired by Duke Tywin from the other side of the Narrow Sea. He likes to chop off the hands and feet of civilians and captives, and is a crippler.
Wag Hutt's subordinates are also very strange. He has an Utter monk who likes to rape little boys; Coben, the bachelor of the necklace, likes to use a knife to conduct living experiments, and those who fall into his hands will die.
The Magic Mountain, the subordinates of Amory Lodge and others, are also notorious.
Now Duke Tywin gathered in Golden Tooth City with a large army. The mad dogs he sent were light cavalry in groups of dozens of people, looting and burning everywhere, and then fled into the mountains of the western border.
The more Edmure thought about it, the more angry he became, "I demand to enter Golden Tooth City immediately and attack the western region."
The black fish Brynden said coldly: "Sir Edmure, you are not young, be more mature! Tywin released his mad dog Demon Mountain, Blood Troupe, Amory Lodge, just to anger us and attack Jin Yacheng. Under that western fortress, our army will suffer heavy casualties."
Edmure said bitterly: "Uncle, why don't we do nothing?"
It was Robb who answered, "Uncle, Prince Oberyn's band of Vipers, the Red Viper, killed many of the Mountain's soldiers, and our cavalry caused heavy casualties to the Blood Mummers, and we executed every one of the Blood Mummers' captives. The Lannisters will pay dearly for their rampage."
Edmure suppressed his anger, "But what I want is revenge. I hope to immediately bring the flames of war to the western region. I want to personally lead the troops to attack the western region!"
Robb said sharply: "Uncle, you don't have the right. Before my father went to the north, Sir Brynden and I were appointed commanders of the Riverlands."
Edmure said depressedly: "I am the heir to Riverrun and the Riverland."
Blackfish Brynden said: "Our army in the riverlands now comes from the valley, the riverlands and the north. Edmure, you are a good man, but you are not suitable for fighting. You stay in the castle. Robb and I will meet Against the Lannisters."
Robb, the black fish Brynden walked towards the camp outside Riverrun, and Robb said: "Sir Brynden, if we tell Sir Edmure the news that the mountain army in Boundless Stone City is about to attack the West, will he Take it easy?"
Blackfish Brynden said: "No, the sneak attack on the Western Territory from Huangshi City is a military secret. Edmure is not strict with his mouth. If you tell him, maybe he will tell his mistress, his prostitute, or his Those friends Marco Piper, Hugo Vance or Piwyn Frey."
Robb and Blackfish Brynden, with a thousand cavalry, left the camp to mop up the Tywin mad dogs who invaded the riverlands.
According to Ed's order, the Hejian Land has begun to rebuild the deserted stone city. In this castle, soldiers from the mountain tribes, northern mountain tribes, cavemen, night walkers, and rock species who are good at mountain warfare gathered.
There are wildling raiders who have climbed the Great Wall, such as Grieg, Erok, and Jarl, as well as skinchangers such as Gisela the goat girl, McCain the eagle king, Auriel, and Thorn the lynx woman.
This army will cross the mountains that border the Riverlands to the north of the Westlands, plundering mountain villages, gold and silver mines.If Tywin wanted to stop this army and protect the mining area in the northern part of the western region, he had to divide his troops northward from Golden Tooth City.
As a result, the strength of Golden Tooth City, the western fortress, was reduced, and the army of the wolf king under the city of Runliu had a chance to attack the western region.
Ed the wolf king took the giant eagle and the dragon to the north. He wanted to fight against the invading iron people on the west coast of the north. The military command of the river land was handed over to Robb and Brynden the black fish. Commander, Eddard has chosen Rickard Karstark, Lord of Kahoe City.
Harrenhal is not only an important military town, protecting the estuary of the Trident River and Ruby Beach Ferry, but also the castle where the dragon cub Koi, Hawkeye, and seven little griffins live. Ed's wife Caitlin and adopted son Robin The Duke, Lady Lysa, daughters Arya and Sansa also live in Harrenhal. In addition, Harrenhal also gathered more than 90 noble sons adopted by Ed in the riverlands and valleys.
Ed reused Blackfish Brynden, Robb, and Earl Rickard because of their loyalty and outstanding abilities. As for Roose Bolton, Theon and others who were worrying about their loyalty, they were not reused.
Edmure was abandoned because of his lack of ability. He was very depressed, and Roose Bolton said, "Sir Edmure, you are the heir to Riverrun, and you should protect your people. I think that Blackfish Brin Don and Robb, it's going too far not to let you lead the way."
Ed the wolf king rode a giant eagle and took the dragon to the north. He ordered Theon and Roose Bolton to serve in the army of Riverrun.Today's Roose Bolton obviously feels that he is not being reused. He is as depressed as Edmure and Theon.
However, Theon at least still has the respect of Robb, the young wolf lord, and Roose Bolton can only feel sorry for Edmure.
Edmure said depressedly: "What can I do? The Wolf King and Heiyu never give me a chance to lead troops."
Roose Bolton smiled, "You should take the initiative to fight for opportunities. The mad dogs sent by Duke Tywin are guerrillas at best. What's the difficulty in wiping out such enemies? You should take the initiative."
At this moment, Ferran and Domilik hurried back with a troop of cavalry.
Domilik saw Edmure and said quickly, "Sir Edmure, where are Brynden and Robb, the black fish?"
Edmure said: "They are leading troops out, tell me if you have anything to do!"
Ferran said: "We found the Kingslayer in the Whispering Forest area, and he led troops to plunder the villages in the Whispering Forest area. According to the news brought back by the scouts, the Kingslayer's cavalry has less than 200 people."
Roose Bolton's eyes lit up, "Sir Edmure, the opportunity has come. If you capture James the Kingslayer, the Wolf King will definitely value you."
Encouraged by Roose Bolton, Edmure immediately exploded with confidence, "I will immediately bring a thousand cavalry to hunt down the Kingslayer."
Phelan was puzzled: "Sir Edmure, I think we should ask Blackfish Brynden and Young Wolf Lord Robb for instructions."
Roose Bolton said: "The opportunity is fleeting. When the black fish Brynden and the young wolf master return, the Kingslayer will have fled back to the West."
Edmure and Ferran went to gather the cavalry, Domeric followed, and Roose Bolton stopped him.
"Domeric, you stay here."
Domilik was puzzled, "Father, it is a great honor to hunt and kill James the Kingslayer!"
Roose Bolton snorted, "Glory comes with great risks. Kingslayer James is no ordinary man. He has killed many good fighters on the battlefield. I will not allow you to take risks."
Domilik was puzzled, "Then why did you encourage Edmure and Ferran to attack?"
Roose Bolton lowered his voice, "Edmure is the heir to Riverrun, and it is his duty to protect the territory. As for Ferran, he is a poacher promoted by the Wolf King, and he should work for the Wolf King. You don't have to To take on such a dangerous foe as the Kingslayer."
Domilik shook his head, "Father, Ferran is my friend, and even the husband of my aunt Mrs. Barbaret. I will not let him face the Kingslayer alone. I will go and hunt the Kingslayer together with Ferran. "
Roose Bolton watched Domeric mount his horse and leave.Domilik is obviously much nobler than Ramsay Snow who stayed in the Dreadfort. Roose Bolton was very depressed when he thought that his son would grow more like Stark and become a member of the wolf pack.
In Warhorse City of Wolfsburg, where the stream flows into the sea, the Iron Islands Fleet used ballistas and catapults to smash gaps one after another in the city wall of Warhorse City. After a bloody siege, the castle fell into the hands of the Ironborn.
Asha watched the golden sea monster banner of the Greyjoy family flying over the top of Warhorse City, and the joy of the victor surged in her heart.
Ironmen took away armor, daggers, swords, and battle axes from the corpses of the dead enemies. Some ironmen knelt down and cut off the rings on the hands of the corpses with knives. This is "paying iron money", which is most praised by ironmen payment method.
The commander of the Warhorse City, Jax, was brought before Asha and Victarion. The direwolf crest on Jax's chest was pierced by a sharp arrow, and blood trickled down.
Asha glared at the commander of Wolf Castle, "If you want to survive, you must surrender."
Jakes spat out blood, "I am a member of the wolf king, a citizen of Stark, and I will never surrender. The wolf king will kill you all."
Aeron "Damphair" said grimly, "These savages who worship the weirwood heart tree must be dedicated to the Drowned God."
Afterwards, Priest Drowned God took several soldiers and drowned the commander of Warhorse City into the sea.
On the Rock Coast, the ironmen paid a high price to capture the Rock City of Wolf Castle. Then, Aeron "Damphair" drowned more than 30 soldiers of the Winter Wolf Army, including Desmond, the commander of the Rock City. " Aeron wanted to sacrifice more captives to the Drowned God, but Asha stopped him.
If you want to conquer the land of the northern border, you must win the hearts of the people. Drowning too many northern captives will only attract unnecessary hostility and make it more difficult for the ironborn to gain a foothold in the northern border.Obviously, Aeron "Damphair" didn't understand these things at all.
Although Rock City and Warhorse City fell into the hands of the ironmen, the damage to the city walls was serious. Once the northern border started to counterattack, how long could these castles last?
What disturbed Asha the most was the weirwood heart tree in Wolf Castle.In the Blacksmith City, Aeron Damphair ordered the godswood to be burned, and all the trees around the godswood were burned. Only the weirwood heart tree stood still in the flames. sea water.
Aeron Damphair thought it was the Drowned God who performed a miracle and spared the weirwood's life with sea water, a symbol of the Drowned God's kindness to the old gods.However, Asha was not convinced, it was more like a miracle of the old gods.
After the capture of Rock City, Aeron Damphair ordered the Ironborn soldier Falk to chop down the weirwood heart tree in the godswood forest with an axe. The weirwood heart tree oozes sap like blood. After dropping his hand, the sharp ax cut off half of Falk's foot. Falk screamed and died of wound infection the next day.
The ironborn began to whisper, thinking it was a curse from the Old Gods.
Now that he has won the third Wolf Castle, the Warhorse City in the Streamland, Aeron Damphair has learned his lesson and dare not provoke the godswood here.
Victarion looked at the dilapidated castle, "What stupid name do the northerners give to the castle, Warhorse City? Why is it called that?"
The one who answered was Roderick Harlow, "The Reader", the lord of Harlow Island and Asha's uncle.
"The Streamland is an important war horse production area in the north, and this is the territory of the Ryswell family. The war horses here are widely loved by the knights of the Green Land in the tournaments in the south, and they are better than the horses of our Iron Islands. too much."
The ironmen of the Iron Islands are used to riding boats, not horses. People ride on the island, usually the smaller Harlow pony.Therefore, there were no decent cavalry in the Iron Islands, and Asha began to worry, if the cavalry from the stream attacked Warhorse City in large numbers, how would the Ironborn resist by relying on the dilapidated city wall?
Asha said: "The city wall must be repaired quickly."
Victarion looked to the north, "It turned out to be a war horse production area. I heard that the old Earl of Lathwell ruled this land. His sons should have gone south with Ed to fight. I want to take the ships to capture Stream Castle, and use sword and fire to sweep the territory of the Laswell family."
Asha said: "Third uncle, let's let the stream land go first! We still need to conquer Shuguangwang. That castle is the strongest and largest among the wolf castles on the west coast of the northern border. I heard that the illegitimate son of the wolf king, Jon Xue Nuo personally defends Shuguangwang, a tough battle is waiting for us."
Victarion said disdainfully: "What battle has that bastard fought? I can easily take Dawnwatch."
"The Reader" Rodrik said: "Commander of the Iron Fleet, if it were me, I would not despise Jon Snow. I heard that this Jon Snow followed the Wolf King to participate in the conquest of rock species, and conquered the world beyond the Great Wall." In the war, the wolf king went south and appointed Governor Jon Snow to the north, it must be because of his excellence."
"Don't forget, Jon Snow has a direwolf in his hand."
Victarion said contemptuously: "Reader, a little wolf cub scares you? Ed is far away in the riverlands. As long as we occupy Dawn Watch and Cailin Bay, Ed will return No more northern borders."
Asha said: "In any case, the most important thing is to quickly capture Shuguangwang."
In the Riverlands, Edmure hunted down the Westland cavalry led by James the Kingslayer in the Whispering Forest.
There were less than 200 cavalry in the western region. In order to surround the enemy, Edmure divided the [-] cavalry into multiple teams and attacked in turn.
James had golden hair, wore gold-plated armor and a golden sword, led the cavalry from the west, broke out of the encirclement, and fled westward all the way.
Domilik and Edmure's cavalry team chased and killed the Kingslayer, and when they came to a hill, Domeric said, "Sir Edmure, we should wait for the other cavalry team to join forces and hunt the Kingslayer together. It's too dangerous to pursue like this." , it is easy to be ambushed, and our cavalry has less than 300 people."
Sir Edmure smiled confidently, "A lot of Kingslayer's cavalry have died, and it is estimated that there are less than 100 of them at this moment. I must capture him alive. I captured Kingslayer alive, look at Robb and Blackfish What would Lyndon say."
Edmure insisted on pursuing, so Domilik had no choice but to continue to follow. He hoped that Ferran would arrive quickly with the cavalry, and Ferran had more cavalry in his hands.
After night fell, Edmure and Domilik chased the Kingslayer and came to a barren hill. Suddenly, arrows were fired, and the cavalry around Domilik fell off their horses screaming.
At this time, the kingslayers in gold-plated armor and the cavalry from the west began to pour out from all directions of the barren hills, and Edmure was frightened.
Edmure's horse was shot by a sharp arrow and fell off the horse. Domilik gave the horse to Edmure.
"Sir Edmure, our hunting action has made us prey, let's run!"
Edmure got on the horse, "Domeric, what are you doing?"
Domilik said: "I will find a way to escape." Domilik whipped the horse, and the horse fled eastward with Edmure.
A cavalryman in the western region brandished a spear and stabbed at Domilik. Domilik leaped into the air, stepped on the spear and flew onto the horse's back, and stabbed the cavalryman to death with a sword. Domilik threw the body off the horse and took the enemy's horse, just as he was about to escape , two cavalry blocked the way.
Domilik hacked to death a cavalryman with a hooded coat of arms engraved on his breastplate, and then faced a knight of the Kreher family with a spotted wild boar on his breastplate. Domeric cut off the enemy's right hand with his long sword, and the enemy screamed and died .
The cold arrow swished, and Domilik's plate armor was shot through. He felt a sticky right arm, and blood flowed out.
A figure flashed past, and James the Kingslayer rushed over on his horse, knocking Domeric off his horse.
The shadow of Jaime the Kingslayer looms over Domeric.
James met Domilik at the Tournament in King's Landing, and he said, "Boy Skinner, your skills are good! I originally wanted to kill Edmure, the heir to Riverrun, but since the heir to the Dreadfort came, we also We have to make do with it."
"Arrest Domilik and take him back to the Western Territory!"
Looking at the dawn at the mouth of the deserted mound, people are panicking.
In the past few days, the news brought by the ravens has become more terrifying than the last. Blacksmith City at Kraken Point, Rock City at Rock Coast, and Warhorse City at Streamland all fell under the attack of the Iron Islands fleet.
The black wings brought black news, and the soldiers in the castle were all depressed.
Jon stood at the head of the city, and the young soldier Harkley said: "We should let the Northern Fleet meet the enemy. Relying on Wolf Castle alone will not be able to stop the attack of the Ironborn."
Facing the army of the Iron Islands, Jon chose the strategy of avoiding war and protecting the ship, because the fleet on the west coast of the northern border could not contend with the Iron Fleet, let alone the army of the Iron Islands fleet.
Although the Wolf Castles in various places have fallen, the west coast fleet and fishing boats in the northern border have all hidden in the upper reaches of the barren mound river. As long as the dawn at the mouth of the barren mound river is guarded, the northern border can still keep the ships of the west coast fleet so that they can counterattack the Ironmen in the future .
Another young soldier, Strawhead, said: "Maybe it's because Helen the iron bitch betrayed us and let the iron people go to defend Wolf's Castle, and this will happen."
Jon Snow said: "It is very likely that Helen took her ironmen and died fighting for the northern border. It would be unfair to Helen to blame her at this time."
Mrs. Ballet said worriedly: "Warhorse City has fallen, and I am worried that the Ironborn will plunder my father's streamland."
Jon Snow said: "Don't worry, the enemy's goal is the Moat Cailin, the throat of the north. The Streamland means nothing to the Ironborn. To attack Moat Cailin, they have to pass by Dawn Look, I deduce The next goal of the people must be Shuguangwang."
Facing the terrified eyes, Jon Snow knew that he must encourage the soldiers and summon their courage.
"The iron men captured three wolf castles, but they suffered heavy casualties. Every time they occupied a castle, they divided their troops to stay behind. Moreover, when the iron men attacked the castle, the walls of the wolf castle were seriously damaged. The northern border may take back these wolf castles at any time. .”
"I have already ordered Earl Barack Flint of Flint's Finger to wait for an opportunity to recapture the Blacksmith City at Kraken Point. We have ambushes on the Flint Cliff, and these soldiers will harass the Blacksmith City day and night."
"At this moment, Rambad Taoha, the acting city lord of the Taoha family, and Benford Taoha, the heir of Torun Square City, have led troops to the Rock Coast, waiting for an opportunity to capture Rock City."
"The Earl of Rythwell in Streamland is also mobilizing cavalry and siege troops. Once the main force of the Iron Islands attacks Dawnwatch to the east, enters the Heat Wave River, and marches towards Cailin Bay, Streamland will be able to take back Warhorse City!"
Hope gradually ignited in the eyes of the soldiers. Jon Snow said: "After the iron people captured Blacksmith City, Rock City and Warhorse City, they came to the city of Dawnwatch. In Wolf Castle, the strongest fortress, the Ironborn invaders are destined to be defeated here!"
In King's Landing, Cersei sits on the Iron Throne, and Prince Rhaegar and Deathstorm stand guard at the entrance of the Iron Throne stairs.
The necromancer Ogbetta and the grand maester Pycelle stood in the hall, and the keels of the Targaryen family filled all directions of the throne room.
Ogbeta was dressed in black, hunched over, holding a skeleton scepter in his hand.Grand Maester Pycelle is a little hunchbacked and dressed in a gray robe.
A few days ago, Grand Maester Pycelle was still putting on airs and asked to return to the Academy City so that the Academy would send a new Grand Maester to replace Pycelle, but Cersei flatly rejected Pycelle's request.
Today's Pycelle is old, and the old trash may hang up at any time. Fortunately, Ogbeta can resurrect the dead.Cersei intends that once Pycelle dies, Ogbetta will resurrect him and continue to serve Cersei.
Cersei is going to ask Pycelle to write a book called "Cersei's Conquest", which must be better than Aegon's conquest of the Seven Kingdoms.
The keel behind the Iron Throne is the largest. It comes from the mount of Aegon the Conqueror, Balerion. Balerion is also the largest dragon in the history of Westeros. He can swallow a mammoth in one bite. elephant.
Cersei stared at the necromancer Ogbetta, "When will we be able to resurrect these dragons?"
Ogbeta said: "Your Majesty, strictly speaking, the resurrected dragon skeletons are not magic dragons, but frost dragons. They have no flesh and blood, and the dragon flames they spew out are ice."
Grand Maester Paicell stroked the necklace on his neck, "With all due respect, there is no mention of the Frost Dragon in any books about magic dragons."
Ogbeta said contemptuously: "Old man, there are no records in the books. Is there no such thing in the world? Your books also record that giants, skinchangers, dragons, giant eagles and griffins are all extinct. Now, all these things are gone." Appeared in Westeros."
Grand Maester Pycelle frowned, "Is the Griffin reborn too?"
Ogbetta nodded, "The masterpiece of the wolf king Ed, he hatched the river dragon koi and the valley dragon Hawkeye in Harrenhal, and also hatched seven griffins. Old man, while you are still studying hard Ben, when studying history, Wolf King Ed is making history, but you don't know it."
Grand Maester Pycelle's eyes widened, "Where did you get this information from?" After Varys disappeared, Ogbeta became the chief intelligence officer.
Ogbeta said: "The cold god I serve told me that in the dark, I can see what happened in the distance."
Cersei clenched her hands, "In this way, Ed has three dragons in his hand, and Ed is strong and strong. Even if I have such strong men as Deathstorm and Prince Rhaegar, I may not be Ed's opponent."
Ogbeta said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. The Night King outside the Great Wall is recruiting troops. When winter comes, the Night King will break through the Great Wall of Desperation and attack the northern border. Ed's hometown is destined to become a paradise for the dead."
Cersei's eyes flickered with suspicion, "Who is this Night King? Is he also a servant sent to me by the Cold God?"
Ogberta suppressed a smile, "Yes, without a doubt."
Cersei said: "Waiting for winter, I don't know how long it will be. I heard that Daenerys, the sister of the beggar king Viserys, also hatched three dragons in Essos. Why are there so many demons now?" Dragon? This bitch will definitely bring the dragon to attack Westeros in the future. We must quickly resurrect the frost dragon, Ogbeta, I order you, act now."
Ogbeta grinned ugly.
"Your Majesty, to revive the Frost Dragon requires powerful magical power. Only by destroying the statues of the Seven Gods on the Baelor Cathedral can the God of Cold be pleased."
These days, Grand Maester Pycelle is becoming more and more afraid of Ogbeta, and he has learned to protest the necromancer tactfully.
"I don't think it's good to do this. Many people in King's Landing are believers of the Seven Gods. Knights from all over Westeros and people from all walks of life mostly worship the Seven Gods. The one who destroyed the Baelor Cathedral I am afraid it will arouse public anger."
Cersei sneered, "If I can resurrect the Frost Dragon, all the people in Westeros will kneel and tremble at my feet. What's the public anger? Ogbeta, as long as you can bring me back the Frost Dragon , I give you permission to destroy the Great Sept of Baelor."
Looking at the dawn, a huge trebuchet was parked on the towering city wall. The giant moved a huge stone and put it on the trebuchet. The other giants pulled the lever together, and the boulder drew an arc and fell, smashing through an ironman ship in an instant. long boat.
Jon stood on the wall, calling the shots.
"The range of our trebuchets far exceeds that of the Ironborn. As long as we aim at the ironborn siege equipment on the coast and hit hard, the enemy will not be able to get close to the city wall!"
As soon as the ironmen's catapults and ballistas arrived on the shore, they were hit by huge stones. Many ironmen were smashed into meatloaf, and even some ships on the sea were hit by huge stones.
Asha stood on the deck of the Invincible Iron, observing the situation at the top of the city with a captured telescope, and said depressedly: "There are at least three giant trebuchets on the city wall of Dawnwatch. These are trebuchets operated by giants. Ours The trebuchet has a far worse range than the giant trebuchet."
While speaking, two more ironborn longships were hit by boulders and began to flood and sink. Some ironborn screamed and began to jump into the sea.
"The Reader" Rodrik said: "Dawn Lookout looks higher than the walls of Warhorse City and Rock City. This castle is very difficult to capture. Why not send ships to block the mouth of the river and attack Cailin Bay directly."
Iron Fleet Commander Victarion shook his head stubbornly, "No, according to the captives, the Blacksmith City at Kraken Point, the Rock City at Rock Coast, and the Warhorse City at Streamland all sent their ships to the upper reaches of the Barren Mound River. Shu Guangwang just strangles the mouth of the Huangzuo River, as long as this castle is captured, those ships will all belong to the iron people."
"The Reader" Rodrik looked at the fleet behind him, and the ships of the Ironborn stretched to the end of his vision.
"Even if you want to capture this castle, there's no need for so many ironmen longships to wait on the Saltspear Beach, right? You can send a fleet to scout the Red Wave River to see if the enemy has any defenses. "
To capture Moat Cailin, the ironborn would have to travel up the Heatwave, a river that rises from the Neck.After arriving at the source of the Heat Wave River, the ironborn were less than half a day's ride away from the northern fortress of Kalin Bay, which could easily threaten Kalin Bay.
Victarion agreed, and he called Raff Kenning.
"Take ten long boats, go to the Redang River, and clear the obstacles on the river."
Laffer Kenning said excitedly: "Commander, I believe that the enemy of Kalin Bay is vulnerable, maybe when you capture Shuguangwang and set off for Kalin Bay, we will have already captured Kalin Bay. "
Victarion said angrily: "The ironmen attacked Wolf's Castle on Saltspear Flat. Moat Calim must have been warned. Besides, the Heat Wave River is the territory of the Swamp Devil. Don't underestimate the enemy. Your order is to investigate and remove obstacles. Things, you are not allowed to attack rashly."
Laffer Definitely sailed towards the Heat Wave River with ten long boats.
The range of the giant trebuchet on the city wall at dawn covered the planned landing point of the ironborn. As long as the ironborn's siege equipment was pushed onto the beach, it would be hit by boulders within a short distance. The beach was full of ironborn corpses , brains, blood stained the beach.
Seeing that the siege equipment could not approach Dawnwatch, Victarion and Asha ordered the ironman longships to land from beyond the range of the enemy's catapults, and then launched a desperate charge towards the city wall of Dawnwatch.
Jon Snow mobilized crossbowmen and shot from the battlements and arrow towers. The arrows were like locusts. to rockfall and boiling oil attacks.
The battle lasted until dusk, and more and more ironmen died in battle. The bodies of the ironmen stretched from under the city wall at dawn to the seashore.
Victarion suppressed his anger, "Jon the bastard, he will only be a turtle on the wall."
"The Reader" Rodrik said: "Victarion, the Ironborn are not good at siege, and the ironborn's siege equipment cannot threaten Shuguangwang. It is doomed that the Ironborn will not be able to capture this wolf castle. Hurry up! Go and attack Cailin Bay! Are so many Ironborn warriors going to die for a mere Wolf Castle?"
Asha echoed, "Yes! Third Uncle, just leave a fleet behind and seal off the waters beyond Dawn."
Victarion was helpless, he left the ships of the Humberly family and the Cowd family, blocked the mouth of the Barren River, the Iron Fleet and the Harlow family, the Blacktys family, the Botley family, and the Drumstick family , the ship of the Gubler family, headed towards the Relang River.
Jon Snow on the top of the city saw the Iron Islands fleet marching towards the Heatwave River, and immediately found Mrs. Ballerina and Commander Shad.
"You two hold on to Dawn Watch. I'm going to the upper reaches of the Heatwave River to prevent the Ironborn from attacking Cailin Bay."
Jon Snow took Ygritte, twenty cavalrymen and Bai Ling, and galloped towards the upper reaches of the Heat Wave River.
The giant eagle prince Michu, the wolf king Ed and the giant eagle princess Bertha, with more than 30 giant eagles, flew over the endless Neck in the dark night, and they were already close to the Relang River and the Saltspear Beach.The magic dragon and flying wolf followed closely.
In order to rush to the west coast of the northern border in time, Ed, Michu and Bertha kept switching to giant eagles, changing one when a giant eagle was tired, non-stop day and night, and finally arrived near the Relang River.
Under the bright moonlight, Ed sucked the power of nature in the air, he smelled the smell of blood, sea salt and sea breeze, and the smell of iron.It was the smell of chainmail and ringmail on the Ironmen on the Iron Islands longship.
Asha stood on the bow of the Black Wind, and she noticed that the mouth of the Relang River was surrounded by dense forests, and the river channel was obviously much narrower than that of the Barren Mound River. The Iron Fleet and many ships had all entered the Relang River.
Jon led the cavalry and ran all the way to a camp on the upper reaches of the Heatwave River.
"The fleet of the Ironborn is sailing up the Heatwave River, quickly putting our ships into the Heatwave River."
The soldiers untied the cables of the canoes full of wildfires and the dilapidated fishing boats, and the water carried the boats and rushed downstream.
In the darkness, Laffer Kenning, who commanded the scouting longboat, stood at the bow and saw the canoe floating in the distance. He laughed and said, "The barbarians from the north actually used the canoe to sneak attack? I laughed so hard."
The first officer at the side said: "No, there are some boats following behind."
Under the moonlight, Laffer Kenning set up an arbor with his hands, and said disdainfully: "They are all canoes, fishing boats, this kind of beggar fleet, how could it be the opponent of the ironman longboat? However, it seems that they are all empty boats. What's the situation?"
After the first canoe approached, Laffer Kenning ordered the Ironborn to hook the canoe with a grapple, and the canoe was full of thick green sticky substances.
Laffer Kenning picked up the torch and jumped into the canoe to check. He grabbed a handful of viscous substance with his hand and held it to the torch to observe, "What the hell is this?"
In an instant, the wildfire on the canoe exploded, and Laffer Kenning screamed, his whole body was swallowed by emerald green flames, his eyes burst like jelly, his flesh and blood melted, the longboat was swallowed by emerald flames, and the ironborn died. It's called Lianlian, some people dive into the water to survive, but even the river is burning.
Down the river, canoes, fishing boats, and wine barrels loaded with wildfires set the entire Heat Wave River on fire.
Standing on the Invincible Ironborn, Victarion saw the longship ahead ablaze and engulfed in green flames, startled, "What is this?"
Roderick, a scholar on the Shuxiang ship, said in astonishment: "This is wildfire! The excrement of the alchemist, everyone, go ashore and escape!"
Longships burned one after another, and the ironmen fled directly after the smaller longships landed. Big ships like the Gray Wind, the Invincible Ironborn, and the Scholar could only row downstream desperately, and behind them had become Purgatory of wildfire.
However, to the despair of the ironmen longboats, iron chains appeared at the mouth of the Relang River. This is the iron chain assembled after dismantling the giant's chain mail. The giant Wang Wang brought five giants, and there were three giants on the left and right sides of the river. , pulled up the underwater iron chain, tied it to a big tree in the forest, and blocked the retreat of the Ironborn fleet.
The longboats crashed into the iron chain one after another, and the wildfire behind them was approaching. The green flames were so hot, like torches between heaven and earth, and the sky turned emerald.
At this time, the roar of the magic dragon came from the air, and the magic dragon, flying wolf and giant eagle appeared.
The magic dragon and flying wolf bathed the boats in the heat wave river with dragon flames, setting fire to one long boat after another. The wings of the giant eagle stirred up the storm, and the wildfire swept downstream.
Some of the ironborn began to take off their chainmail, ringmail, and jump into the sea to escape.
Longships burned one after another, the entire Heat Wave River boiled, and the Iron Islands fleet was being wiped out.
Thank you, Afeng, I am a cat who talks a lot, Zhang Wulang, who turned the world around, sent out the monthly ticket, thank you for your support!
