The next morning, Catelyn Stark and Robb said goodbye in Cailin Bay. The mother and son, who had just met one night, were about to face the moment of separation.

Before leaving, Caitlin looked at her son with pride in her heart: "I never thought you would take the initiative to propose a marriage. A little boy may be able to wield a sword, but only a true adult lord can understand the meaning of a political marriage contract. , and accept it calmly.”

Robb smiled and said, "I heard that the little roses of the Tyrell family are extremely beautiful. I am not at a disadvantage."

Caitlin was still a little worried: "Over in Luanhe City, Lord Frey is not an easy character to get along with. I'm worried that he may not let you cross the river."

"It doesn't matter, I will take care of it."

Seeing Robb's confident look, Caitlin didn't say anything, got on her horse and left Cailin Bay with a few escorting knights.

Robb was worried about his mother's safety, so he asked the two children of the Manderly family to escort their mother. After all, there were bandits and robbers everywhere outside, and necessary security measures must be taken.

Robb looked back at Moat Cailin, where all the lords and lords were ready to go through the swamp to find Tywin's army for a decisive battle.

Robb looked at an older knight and said politely: "Sir Blackfish, you are most familiar with the situation on the other side of the Riverlands. Please be careful about the next journey."

Ser Blackfish's original name was Brynden Tully, and he was the younger brother of the current lord of the Riverlands. Because he did not want to accept the marriage contract made by his brother, he became independent from the Tully family and had his own Blackfish flag, so Robb said He is Sir Blackfish.

He originally followed Lysa to the Arryn Valley as an errand, but after hearing about the tragic war situation in the Riverlands, he resolutely followed his niece Caitlin to the battlefield.

Therefore, it cannot be said that Erin Valley did not participate in the war at all. At least one knight came.

In terms of seniority, Ser Blackfish was Robb's second grandfather, but on the battlefield Robb was the commander-in-chief, so although Robb showed rare courtesy, it was nothing more.

Although Sir Blackfish is older, his eyes still reveal vitality: "Leave it to me."

Leaving a thousand archers stationed in the Bay of Cailin, Robb's army marched southward along the King's Road. When passing through the swamp, the lord of the swamp sent scouts to help Robb's army lead the way. There were many surprises along the way. risk.

After crossing the swamp and entering the Riverlands, Sir Blackfish carefully selected a hundred men and a hundred good horses to inquire about news everywhere in the dangerous Riverlands.

This second grandpa's ability is very outstanding, and new news is delivered every day. Although most of it is not good news, it is still much better than a black eye.

But when Sir Blackfish placed a latest battle report on the tables of the lords, everyone fell silent.

"Jaime the Kingslayer led his troops to besiege Riverrun. Edmure Tully led the remaining defeated soldiers and fought to the death with Jaime at the foot of Riverrun. As a result, he and a group of knights were captured alive by Jaime.

Lord Blackwood, who had a chance to escape, took the remaining troops to guard Riverrun. "

Although Sir Blackfish reported the battle situation expressionlessly, he was already extremely anxious in his heart: That was his nephew!

"After Ser Edmure Tully's defeat, most of the riverland princes dispersed and fled back to their respective castles. As a result, they were defeated one by one by the army led by Lord Tywin. Harrenhal was sacrificed and lacked Bligh. Crowtree City, where Lord Wood was seated, fell immediately."

"Lords under Lord Tywin are burning, killing and looting in the Riverlands. Several territories have been burned to ashes."

"In addition to Riverrun City and Lord Frey's Luanhe City, only the Mallister family still maintains Seaside City in the Riverlands, but they don't have many people and they can hardly play any role."

When Great Jon heard these battle reports, he was so angry that his beard flew up: "They were defeated by the Lannister family so quickly. There were tens of thousands of them. Even if they killed tens of thousands of pigs, they couldn't be so fast!"

Roose Bolton observed the situation as keenly as ever: "On the battlefield in the Riverlands, the Lannister family has already won. If we don't attack immediately, the Riverlands will be completely lost within ten days."

Rickard Karstark roared loudly: "Fight, fight them immediately! Otherwise, these guys will think we are just for free!"

Robb took a look at the performance of the great nobles he relied on, and secretly lamented that although Greatjon and Rickard Karstark were brave, in terms of stability, they had to be wily and cunning.

No wonder he was able to kill the Stark family and become the new Guardian of the North in the original timeline.

Having made up his mind, Robb began to make his own tactical arrangements: "Sir Blackfish, pay attention to the ravens in the sky. If there are any messenger ravens that are not ours, shoot them down. I don't want our every move in the Riverlands to be in danger." Under enemy surveillance."

Sir Blackfish said respectfully: "I have made arrangements. If you want, I can make a hat for you now from the feathers of the crows that were shot off."

Robb was very satisfied with Sir Blackfish's performance: "Hey, see, this is called professionalism."

Roose Bolton also took a look at Sir Blackfish. Although he had long heard that this knight's ability far exceeded that of his nephew Sir Edmure, now it seems that this knight's ability is even better than the rumors.

"You all know the current situation. The Green Fork River flows from north to south, dividing our battlefield into two parts. One side is Riverrun in the west, and the other side is the Kingsroad in the east. I told you before that I would concentrate the main force in the east and fight a decisive battle with Lord Tywin's army."

The lords of the North thought Robb had changed his mind, but they didn't expect Robb's next words to make them doubt whether their ears were broken.

Robb's finger slid across the map and finally stopped at Riverrun: "My plan is still the same as before, but there is one more thing I need to tell you. I will personally lead the wolf riders to support Riverrun, and you will lead the soldiers to hold Tywin on the Kingsroad."

The expressions on the faces of the lords changed. They didn't expect that their boss's madness was not only not cured, but even worse.

Before Edmure was captured by Kingslayer Jaime, they thought that the northern army and the river army would converge together to capture Jaime.

Now that Edmure has been captured, the riverlands' fighting power has been greatly weakened. Even if the northern army joins, there is only a 60% chance of winning. But Robb only wants to go with 300 cavalrymen to support?

What's the difference between this and committing suicide?

But when they think of all the incredible things Robb has shown recently, they have a faint spark in their hearts. Maybe Lord Robb has a backup plan?
