Game of Thrones: I'm flying a dragon on your face, how do you respond?
Chapter 42: Benefits
When the black boat returned to the Dragonstone fleet in the first rays of morning sun, Jaehaerys had already finished practicing fighting with Sir Tretimont and several knights.
Fighting on a boat drifting on the sea is still a test of balance. Jaehaerys had taken a boat in his previous life, but it was basically a small ferry on the river. At that time, he only remembered to hold on to the railing tightly, and he didn't have the mind to move around.
A small boat on the sea was like a drifting leaf. Many knights were also unable to stand steadily. They had to take off their heavy armor and practice with His Royal Highness.
Originally, 70% of his ten skills had been lost. Jaehaerys did not deliberately show off his skills, but responded with a solid foundation of swordsmanship, first one-on-one, then one-on-two, and one-on-three.
His spiritual consciousness was released within ten feet around him, so there was no blind spot in the defense, and there was no weakness behind him.
When the sparring reached 4 people, his spiritual consciousness could react, but his body could not keep up. When the first blunt sword came at an unavoidable angle, he could only use the thick muscles on his back to resist the blow, and then he announced his surrender.
The prince's excellent performance won unanimous cheers from the soldiers. Knights and soldiers yearn for the strong, respect the strong, and desire to be under the command of the strong. This is the most basic logic. In this era, an excellent general must also be proficient in archery and horsemanship, and have outstanding martial arts.
Whether they are the sons of knights or the sons of lords, they have served as servants and then attendants since the age of 5. They serve the knights, learn long swords and lances from the knights, and practice horseback archery.
When their masters think they are enough to bear the honor of knights, they will be canonized as knights. Any lord or knight has the power to canonize others as knights.
In terms of foot combat martial arts alone, Jaehaerys is not inferior to the knights, but fighting on horseback is another matter.
At present, in addition to training, martial arts, and handling affairs, he practices the most on horseback lance and horse archery, but the progress is slow.
This slowness is only relative, one month is equivalent to two months of practice for others!
Shipbreaker Bay Shipbreaker Bay, the wind is blowing and the waves are strong, and boats can sail, but there are rocks in the bay.
From the perspective of shipbuilding and sailing, Shipbreaker Bay and Cape Wrath are not good places. There are strong winds and waves here, and there are many underwater reefs.
Back then, the Mad King sent Duke Stephen Baratheon, the father of Robert's brothers, to Essos to find a suitable Valyrian descendant woman for Rhaegar to marry.
As a result, on the way back, everyone on Storm's End saw with their own eyes that the Duke and Duchess were riding on the Proud Wind, which was blown onto the reef by the storm and sank.
Robert is trying to build a plank road in the open, but secretly move to Chencang!
In fact, even if there was no information from Salador Saan, he would send a scout ship to investigate in the near future. He would not forget that it was after the royal fleet was destroyed by the storm that Erlu led the warships to land on Dragonstone, causing Viserys and Daenerys to flee to the continent of Essos in the original plot.
The captain and crew of the small black ship quickly reported the results of the investigation to Jaehaerys. He pondered for a moment, and made up his mind, so he arranged to return to Dragonstone.
Whether to fight is one thing, how to fight is another. Dragonstone is a small family with a weak business, and it must win cleanly.
If you want to achieve the same results as the last White Harbor operation, you need to make a more careful plan and understand the enemy's deployment in more detail!
"Set sail!" The horn on the sea sounded, and the giant dragon formed by more than 30 warships stretched and shook its wings, rushing towards Dragonstone.
Two days later, back to Dragonstone.
"Please invite Lord Velaryon and Lord Celtigar to discuss matters..." As the two largest and most important allies of Dragonstone, even if they are not capable enough, they must show respect.
As the fleet returned, the mint built at the foot of Dragon Mountain began to rise with smoke again, and the pure gold returned from the transaction was cast into gold coins in a hurry, and then the gold coins were traded for gold, repeating over and over again. Now the scale is huge.
Robert had to ask for more craftsmen, and Queen Leila allocated him 300 people at a time, but this is already the limit of Dragonstone.
"One person eats alone and everyone is jealous. I decided to share this opportunity to make a fortune with the two adults. I wonder if the two adults have the courage to follow up?"
Jaehaerys invited Lord Velaryon and Lord Celtigar to the map room, which is the top floor of the Stone Drum Tower.
When the Conqueror Aegon rode a dragon to travel around the seven kingdoms of Westeros, he drew the mountains and rivers of the entire Westeros continent on a huge wooden table, which is the map table.
Now, three hundred years have passed, and the table exudes the fragrance of wood and varnish. Sitting on the chair in the direction of Dragonstone, he seemed to be able to feel the ambition of Aegon I in those days, breaking the barriers between countries for thousands of years and unifying the seven kingdoms.
However, even with dragons, he still had unfinished work, leaving a huge kingdom that seemed unified but was actually severely divided internally for future generations.
First of all, the position of the crown is not very good, and the area is too small to support a large army. Secondly, he should have completely accepted the Reach and the Riverlands after the extinction of the "black-hearted" Harren and the Gardener family, instead of dividing them among the princes!
And he had to keep the ancient saying of the seven kingdoms, as if he would die if he didn't mention it! Isn't this creating a sense of isolation all the time? The unification of the world only stays on the surface...
Perhaps he thought that as long as there were dragons, even if there were more soldiers and generals, they would only be chickens and dogs, right?
Jaehaerys knew that he couldn't look at the problem from a God's perspective, but he always made such a mistake, a kind of middle school disease called the king of strong mouth.
Valerian and Lord Celtigar looked at each other, as if weighing the pros and cons. Now Robert sat on the Iron Throne and was crowned by the church, with many soldiers and generals.
As for the situation on Dragonstone, the two knew it well. Although Jaehaerys was good at finance and leading troops, his family's wealth was here!
Robert could lose countless times, but Dragonstone would be finished if he lost once!
The two of them knew how much profit they could make from participating in coin minting, but even if they saw a mountain of gold in front of them, they would not dare to take the risk to move it!
Jaehaerys did not make it difficult for them. Let's put it this way. It's a bit difficult to ask you to participate in coin minting, but I'll let you act as a matchmaker for the lords and nobles I know. I want to do legitimate business, right?
You can see that Dragonstone is short of everything, but it is not short of gold coins now. Can't I use gold coins to buy cloth and food?
Don't talk nonsense to me. I originally planned to let you and the lords of the Seven Kingdoms make a fortune. If you don't appreciate it, do you really think that the people of Braavos don't have the ability to do it?
When the two heard this, their eyes lit up. This kind of business can be done! Now the Iron Throne has not issued an order to prohibit doing business with Dragonstone?
So they quickly agreed. Celtigar said that he would send people to the Crab Claw Peninsula and the Valley to purchase immediately, and Velaryon was not far behind, saying that he was willing to contact the princes of the Crown and the Riverlands.
Jaehaerys took out a long list from his arms. Whether it was medicinal materials, wood, steel, charcoal, or stone, grain, cloth, wool, horses, piglets, as long as there was anything on the continent, he would buy it!
