Chapter 151 Power Struggle
"Arya just told me." Igor reminded Tyrion: "Slynt yesterday I was summoned by Robert late."

"So what? What I did is he is a fool who has a king as his backing." Tyrion gave Igor a dissatisfied look: "I said you, after all, you are also the legendary Killer of Others, Can you be a little murderous aura? I don't need you to do Slynt in person, I have a plan in mind, you just execute it."

"Go ahead." Arya couldn't wait: "I Can I participate too?"

"Do you think this is a game? It's a life-and-death power struggle among adults!" Tyrion glanced at Arya, feeling like a nonsense with her insertion , but ignoring her won't work: "Okay, I'll give you a mission, can you tell a story?"

"Of course!"

"Very well, go back and force Slynt Nina's date with him will tell you father, pick a similar time to eat, don't add oil, you can talk about what you know, first let your Ministerial Father leave a bad impression on Slynt. Don't be too deliberate, don't be too careful Don't let your father realize that I told you to say it." Tyrion looked serious: "We won't treat you as a child this time, but don't let us down!"

"Don't worry~ "If it wasn't for Igor always saying she wanted her as a Lady, Arya would have jumped up and issued a military order.

Tyrion is really not at ease with a girl who is only ten years old, but Arya is not too troublesome even if there is a problem in this ring, so he simply stopped thinking about it and continued to command: "Nina, as' One of the victims', in addition to managing the daily operations of the office in the past two days, don't run outside, I will prepare a set of speeches for you, and take time to familiarize yourself with it."

"Understood."

...

"Garrison Commander, this character has no influence in Seven Kingdoms, but is a key player in King's Landing. If it is simply killing him, A saber is enough for one person, but it takes a lot of work to get him out of office with ease and safety. It all boils down to this—severing Janos Slynt's social ties." Tyrion turned to Igor, squinting. Looking at him, "Simply put, it is to prepare all the forces in King's Landing, especially those local tyrants who have interests in Slynt - to get the borrowed money back early, bet and bet. Stop quickly and make arrangements for the election of the next garrison commander, etc."

Igor has not personally participated in the power struggle, but this does not affect his understanding of what Tyrion is saying: "Understood, do my best. It is possible to cut off his ties with the power layer as much as possible and make him 'political and social death', as long as this step is completed, even if we do nothing next, he is doomed."

"Political and social death? Interesting new vocabulary...but it's quite appropriate." Tyrion nods: "You know, if you want to achieve this goal, you must have a general trend. And The so-called general trend is the consensus of the resource masters in front of and behind the stage of King's Landing, and the organization formed by these people is the second master of King's Landing standing in Robert's shadow. I want to convince these people to join the team, without you A person with real power at the core of the Night's Watch industry like me personally came to the door to talk, and just sent a subordinate, but there was no door at all."

"But I don't have a good relationship with our big investors and backers. I'm familiar with you."

"Indeed, you haven't met these invisible dignitaries in King's Landing a few times, so you rashly came to ask them to help you out, it's strange if you can do it, so let's divide the labor , I'm going to talk to these behind-the-scenes bigwigs I'm familiar with, and you'll find some middle-level officers in the garrison and open a gap in them."

"Looking for garrison officers?" Igor I don't understand: "How to open the gap?"

"The city defense team is not monolithic, remember our security team Captain Gerold, the name is very similar to Janos Slynt, but the two were enemies before leaving the garrison. After Slynt was promoted to Lord Commander, he was unable to get along, so he resigned and left, and finally ran to our hands. "Tyrion explained: "From what he said, I learned about the composition of the garrison. This is a very deep organization..." King's Landing security, guarding the city gates, what else can there be? "

"It's a long story, but to sum it up briefly, the King's Landing garrison has more than 2,000 people, of which 1,000 are from House Baratheon, Crownlands princes and those Great Family in King's Landing, including soldiers. and officers. "Tyrion said: "This part of the people, only listening to King Robert and their real masters, Janos is not very commanding. He is well aware of this, and he does not dare to conflict with these nominally subordinates, who actually have backers, so he can only be sent to oppress the remaining half—people recruited from King's Landing with no background, And according to Gerolds, these soldiers were too angry with Slynt to speak out, and they had long held grudges, and longed for someone to come to him. "

"So that's how it is, half of the King's Landing garrison is ignorant of Slynt, and the other half hates Slynt to the core." This guy is very easy to deal with. "

"Don't take it lightly, we don't count as a win if he doesn't fall for a moment. "

"The plan is clear and simple, and I'm fine with it." "Igor actually opposed Tyrion's continued stay in King's Landing at this juncture, but it seemed that he couldn't convince him to return to Casterly Rock, so he could only follow his wishes and quickly accompany him to get Slynt down, so that he could safely evacuate from King's. Landing: "How to do it specifically? Slynt is doing us, not the big guys, why should they help? "

"Speak in terms of dividends, I will send all investors in the Night's Watch industry this month's investment dividends - the money will be slightly higher than the real dividends. Since Slynt doesn't take the money, someone does. After sending the money, tell them: Slynt coveted the profits of the Night's Watch industry and wanted to take a share of it. After being rejected by me, he held a grudge and began to deliberately disrupt and interfere with our production and operation, which affected the income of the Night's Watch industry this month, you guessed it what happened? "

"It's a good move, killing someone's fortune is like killing a parent. You say that, Slynt has added a bunch of enemies to the unfathomable mystery without knowing anything. "Igor's thoughts turned quickly, and he understood the core idea of this power game. Now, he only needs to take the mission of oneself: "What do you want me to do, tell me." "

"It's not enough to just create a general trend, we also need specific entry points - real-name reporting and witnesses. "Tyrion said: "I'm a Lannister, and it's not easy to get ahead in this special period. This matter can only be done by you. First write a real-name report to Eddard Stark, then I'll go back and ask Gerold to make a list of Garrison officers available in King's Landing, and you'll start sneaking in tonight - when the time comes we need some Slynt Subordinates come forward to report, and, most importantly, we can do the king, but we must do it cleanly and never bring chaos to King's Landing, otherwise once Robert is annoyed, it will be over. "

"Okay, I'll do it now." It's getting late. Do you want to stay for lunch? Look at the time. Margaery is coming soon, so you can get to know each other. "

"Margaery said she was going back to Highgarden soon, and never again." "Arya said, "She also let me practice hard, and in the future, I will have the opportunity to teach sword techniques to her distant sisters in Reach. "

She wants you, Miss Stark, to marry into Tyrell's house. Although the little girl oneself is smart, she is still too naive. Igor can't help but bend the corner of his mouth.

"Okay, this chick will have a chance to meet again, but I swore to get Slynt within three days, I don't have the time to spare... I'm going back to the industrial park, you are in the city, the garrison Opposite Dongying, be careful. Tyrion shook his head: "That's it, I'll send ten people into the city this afternoon to help... It's definitely not enough to face the garrison head-on, but it can prevent Slynt from jumping over the wall." "

"Okay, you're out of town, take care of yourself." Igor fully accepted Tyrion's arrangements and instructions, and occasionally enjoyed the feeling of not having to use his mind, but at the final moment of separation, an idea suddenly popped into his mind: "By the way, Arya, Aquan is not asking you to find more people to practice." Jian, from today onwards, you will go to the training ground of the security team outside the city every day to play against some of your father's guards. "

"Huh? so far away! ”

Tyrion glanced at Igor suspiciously, not understanding the purpose of his arrangement. He didn’t ask much in front of Arya, but he believed that there must be a reason for the other party’s actions, so he helped: "It's only a little way, so far? Come on, let's race to see who comes first. "

"Good! ”
