Game of Thrones: Lord of the Deep
Chapter 180 Fear
At this time, Ramsay Bolton didn't know that he had been eliminated in Roose Bolton's heart.
Ramsay summoned his soldiers, that is, "good boys among bastards", a total of more than 300 people, all of whom were northern bastards with the surname of Jon Snow.
Of course, Ramsay's favorite stinker, Theon Greyjoy, must be among the candidates.
And Theon is also a crucial link for Ramsay to take over the Bay of Cailin.
At this time, the Iron in the Bay of Cailin was fighting stubbornly, so Ramsay wanted Theon to persuade him to surrender.
At this time, Theon stood with the hound behind Ramsay. More than half of his teeth had been pulled out, and his fingers were chopped off. The whole person looked decades older. What was even more devastating was that his roots as a man were also removed by Ramsay.
Ramsay personally took Theon to take a bath, and even used soap imported from Essos.
Ramsay not only tortured Theon, but also smeared feces on Theon, committed to making Theon a real stinker.
After a fresh wash, Theon looked much better. Ramsay even asked his men to stew some beef for Theon to eat, which helped him regain some energy.
Although Theon was still haggard at this time, he no longer looked like he would go to see his adoptive father Eddard if he wasn't careful.
Ramsay helped Theon tidy up his clothes and asked with a smile, "Who are you now?"
"Reek." Theon nodded tremblingly. He felt that Ramsay was going to torture him again.
Although he was still very scared, he was more numb to hope and pain than at the beginning.
Ramsay frowned, frightening Theon and trembling. He began to think frantically about how he had upset Ramsay.
"You are Reek, but you are not Reek now. You are Theon Greyjoy, the heir of the Iron Islands. I need you to persuade the Iron Islands in the Moat of Cailin to surrender. Do you understand?"
Ramsay combed Theon's hair with his hands. Looking at the well-dressed Theon, he nodded with satisfaction.
Asked again: "Who are you now?"
Theon had understood what Ramsay meant by this time, and hurriedly said flatteringly: "I am Theon Greyjoy, the heir of the Iron Islands."
"Who are you actually? Tell me!" Ramsay asked sternly.
"I am Reek, I am the master's Reek, and I will offer Moat Cailin to the master." Theon answered tremblingly, as if he was afraid that he would suffer inhuman torture if he answered a little slowly.
Ramsay Bolton was very satisfied with Theon Greyjoy's answer.
Moat Cailin is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If Theon wanted to escape after entering, Ramsay Bolton felt that he might not be able to catch Theon Greyjoy back.
Once Theon Greyjoy returned to the Iron Islands, the Bolton family would inevitably go to war with the North because they tortured Theon Greyjoy and cut off Theon Greyjoy's life.
And what Roose Bolton wanted to see most now was a stable North. As long as Bolton could rule the North for decades, Stark would be forgotten by everyone.
So Ramsay Bolton was also afraid that Theon Greyjoy would escape. Once Theon Greyjoy escaped, his position as heir would definitely not be preserved, and he would be lucky if he was not executed by Roose Bolton.
But Ramsay still had to take the gamble. He was such a person and could never really restrain his flamboyant and cruel nature.
He believed that Theon Greyjoy had been trained by him to be a stinky guy who would never betray.
And he had to take over Moat Cailin to consolidate his position as heir.
So he chose to let Theon Greyjoy persuade the iron race in Moat Cailin to surrender.
After confirming the plan, Ramsay Bolton led 300 people and Theon Greyjoy to Moat Cailin at full speed.
It is said that Moat Cailin was built by the ancestors as early as 10,000 years ago.
At that time, Moat Cailin was a huge fortress with 20 towers and basalt walls as high as Winterfell.
It was once the key to defending the North, and it turned countless attacks by the Andals into nothing.
However, today the city walls have completely disappeared, the wooden fortresses have rotted and eaten away thousands of years ago, and only three of the twenty towers remain.
The remaining three towers control the only causeway to the north from three sides.
To attack one of the towers, the army must wade through waist-deep black mud, cross the moat where lizard lions live, and then climb the mossy and slippery walls, while being exposed to the rain of arrows from the archers of the other two towers from beginning to end.
After approaching the Moat Cailin, Ramsay Bolton tidied up Theon Greyjoy's clothes again, like a brother sending his younger brother on a long journey, constantly admonishing Theon.
However, Theon Greyjoy did not feel the love of his brother at all, but only boundless fear.
Theon came to the tower of the Children of the Forest with uneasiness. The tower is one of the three existing towers. It is tall, thin and pointed, and half of the spire is missing.
According to legend, the Children of the Forest once called on the old gods here to send huge waves to hit the Neck.
Theon Greyjoy revealed his identity and said he wanted to meet the commander-in-chief.
The soldiers on the tower looked at each other and then let Theon Greyjoy in.
They were not worried about Theon Greyjoy who came alone.
Theon Greyjoy looked at the open tower door, and after entering the tower door, he watched them close the tower.
When the tower door closed, Theon Greyjoy's heart trembled suddenly and began to jump uncontrollably.
Theon's breathing began to increase. This might be his best chance to get rid of Ramsay. As long as there was no sudden attack on the Moat Cailin, no matter how many people came, it would be useless.
And the people stationed in the Moat Cailin at this time were all iron races. It was an opportunity, an opportunity!
"Hey, what are you talking about?" The guard frowned and looked at Theon, "Are you really Theon Greyjoy?"
"As far as I know, Theon Greyjoy is at most 23 years old now, and you look like 43 years old." Another guard tilted his head and looked at Theon Greyjoy.
The two guards had already labeled Theon Greyjoy as a liar in their hearts.
Are you kidding? The man in front of them looked almost older than themselves, and he actually told them that he was Theon Greyjoy? !
They were iron races, but not fools. They had to look decent when they were bragging.
The words of the two guards brought Theon Greyjoy back to reality. Thinking of the reason why he had become so old, he shuddered unconsciously.
Thinking of the torture he would suffer if he was captured by Ramsay, Theon Greyjoy quickly suppressed the thought that had just arisen.
He was really scared.
