Game of Thrones: I'm flying a dragon on your face, how do you respond?

Braavos has thousands of warships alone, and countless ocean-going trade ships of all kinds. The world is full of their trading ships with purple sails!

Its Iron Bank is world-famous, and its lending business extends to the continent of Westeros. Even the Iron Throne gives priority to borrowing money from the Iron Bank and does not dare not to repay it, because these bankers have the ability to control the economy of the entire kingdom!

There is a saying in Braavos: "The iron bank cannot be defaulted." If people dare to say this, they are naturally confident!

According to the historical records of the Targaryen family, during the reign of King Jaehaerys I, Jaehaerys's sister's close friend at that time, Miss Elissa Farman, stole three stolen goods from the dragon's lair on Dragonstone Island. A dragon egg was sold to the Sea King in Braavos.

King Jaehaerys sent his Hand to negotiate, but the egg did not return, and Braavos canceled the principal of the royal family's debt at the time...

The Iron Throne at that time had many dragons such as "Black Death" Balerion, Vhagar, "Bronze Fury" Vormisor, Silver Wing, "Red Queen" Melias, etc. Even so, He was still defeated by the Sea King of Braavos!

As you can imagine, the water in Braavos is so deep!

----------------------------------------

"Lord Sangeras, I would like to know how much money is left on Dragonstone now?" Jaehaerys couldn't just be the leader in a daze. After receiving the relevant information in detail, he asked, as if he were an adult.

Earl Sanglas glanced at Queen Layla, saw her nodding, and said, "Right now, there are only 10,000 gold dragons and more than 300,000 silver deer left in the Dragonstone Island treasury. Counting steel, charcoal, wool, leather and other materials... In total, The value does not exceed 50,000 gold dragons..."

Jaehaerys thought for a while. Steel and other materials must not be touched. These are their military reserves.

The air on Dragonstone is salty and humid, which consumes a lot of iron weapons. Dragonstone itself does not produce iron or wood. As long as Robert blocks the trade with Dragonstone, the army will have to return in a short while. To the Stone Age!

The only thing left that can be operated is the 10,000 gold dragons, which is pitiful when you think about it. 10,000 gold dragons are equivalent to 1.55 tons of gold, and Robert's tourney championship prize is 10,000 gold dragons...

Looking at it this way, Dragonstone Island is really poor!

Okay, there are ways to use it if you have less money. Anyway, you don’t need a lot of capital in the early stage.

"Mother, I need you to authorize me to mobilize the royal fleet and all rights to foreign trade!" Jaehaerys said confidently.

Queen Leila was already pregnant with Liujia, and her belly was already very big. When winter first entered, her body was very thin, her cheeks were sunken, and she looked gaunt.

Jaehaerys looked worried, and if this trend continued, after Daenerys was born, the mother-in-law went away again, so he used spiritual energy to nurse Queen Layla from time to time, and even used the remaining one. A crimson pearl pill melted into the water, allowing Queen Layla to drink it unknowingly.

After some operations, her body improved significantly compared to before, her face became visibly rosy, and her body became plump...

In addition to the fact that her mental state is still not good, the midwives said they have never seen such a healthy elderly mother...

"My son, feel free to do it!" Layla wore a crown on her head. Since Lannister was not destroyed, there is no king on Dragonstone now. Layla acted as regent in the name of Queen Aerys II.

Little Aegon's original surrogate child was also cared for by a wet nurse at this time, and Little Aegon was still declared to be the legal heir to the Iron Throne.

Everyone thought that little Aegon had been taken to Dragonstone. Although it was night, there were many interested people. It was not unknown for Jaehaerys to take away the two children at night. Secondly, they took advantage of the situation and pretended to be confused, and continued to secretly investigate the matter of Chen Cang, attracting the firepower of Robert and Tywin to Dragonstone Island.

With Layla's authorization, Jaehaerys summoned the current commander of the royal fleet, Sir Tritimon, and asked him to divide the royal fleet into three groups. One group was led by Treytimon to go to the Stepstone Islands, and the other group was led by himself. Lead the attack to White Harbor, leaving the rest to guard home and patrol between the Throat and Blackwater Bay.

At the same time, all external communication channels on the island are blocked to prevent outsiders from knowing the movements of the fleet. The number of ravens in each fleet going north and south is clearly registered, and Master Tria from Dragonstone Island selects assistants to take care of it.

Only he and Sir Tritimon knew the goals of the two squadrons. They were not allowed to announce them to the captain and crew until they left Dragonstone.

Jaehaerys wanted to get a vote first within the scope of maximum confidentiality. As for whether Robert has anyone under his command who understands, it depends on God's will!

In the early morning, the two squadrons quietly left the dock of Dragonstone Island. Jaehaerys had brought all the Spring Thunders he had made in the past six months to his fleet in advance. Each ship was equipped with several improved scorpion crossbows. This was a A large crossbow, 2-3 meters long (not in feet, the conversion is too troublesome, and everyone is tired to read), with a wooden rotating frame below and a support frame at the tail. It looks like a scorpion's tail, so it is It's called the Scorpion Crossbow.

The crossbow is equipped with a winding winch. When the string is fully loaded, a 2-meter-long crossbow arrow can be fired to a distance of 300 meters. Moreover, each Scorpion Crossbow only requires 2-3 people to operate it. The arrows of the Scorpion Crossbow are slightly different. With modifications, a wooden halter is added to the front of the crossbow, and Chun Lei can be inserted into it.

Due to the added weight and wind resistance, the range of the modified scorpion crossbow has been reduced. Jaehaerys has seen the soldiers' test shooting, and the accuracy is guaranteed if the fixed target is set within a range of 200 meters.

But on the swaying sea, the accuracy can only be said to be very touching. Only when the distance is set to 100-150 meters and the target is a large ship, the hit rate will increase.

Therefore, Jaehaerys's requirement for all fleets is that they must bring out the most experienced and highest hit rate shooters, and before shooting, they must test shoot with ordinary crossbows.

After all, there are less than 200 spring thunders in total, which really cannot be wasted!

More than 30 large and small warships made full use of the wind to move forward and finally arrived outside White Harbor three days later.

"I repeat, fast mobile warship squadron, your mission is to pin down the garrison fleet and lead it out of the river mouth. The Mandalay family does not have many large warships, and I believe you can do this..."

"Vanguard landing force, your mission is crucial, hide in the suburbs west of White Harbor, and when you see the garrison fleet being led away, quickly approach the city gate when it gets dark..."

"Tactical fraud fleet, your mission is to fly the flag of the Mandalay family, pretend to chase the returning fleet, and strictly implement the plan formulated a few days ago. Plan, no deviation is allowed, to create an opportunity for the vanguard landing troops to seize the city gate... If it fails, use the trebuchet to throw spring thunder to provide fire cover... I will make sure that there is not a single person standing on the top of their city!"

"Others! After seizing the city gate, rush forward, act quickly according to your respective goals, and retreat after the battle!"

"Now I declare! The "Fishing in Troubled Waters" operation has officially begun!"

The plan is that Jaehaerys repeatedly studies the terrain of White Harbor and the layout of the city's functional areas, and finds experienced generals and soldiers to verify the feasibility of the action.

Finally, such a "Fishing in Troubled Waters" plan was formulated. As for why they had to travel thousands of miles to attack White Harbor, it was mainly because there was a royal mint here!
