Game of Thrones: Dragonborn Comes

The nobles on the western coast of the mainland began to respond. They were often harassed by the pirates of the Iron Islands, especially the river land was conquered by pirates, and they all began to be filled with righteous indignation.

Werther went on to say, "We should respect the customs of the people of the Iron Islands. Their current king is elected through a king election meeting. After our victory this time, we should also hold a king election meeting in accordance with the wishes of the people of the Iron Islands to end the pirate rule."

look back at stannis

"Does the Lord of the Admiralty think the Iron Islanders are good sailors?"

"Yes"

"The king also has Yiwu to let the people of the Iron Islands live a happy life. It is very suitable for the iron people to be the navy."

After Werther finished speaking, he stood back to the crowd, and his goal had been achieved. Now the Minister of the Imperial Council was discussing with Robert the follow-up issues, and it was finally decided that Baron and some major generals must be beheaded, and important participants must also be sent to be night watchmen.

After that, for three consecutive weeks, the entire continent of Westeros was covered. The troops gathered by the vassals from all over the country gradually moved to the west of the mainland. Stannis and the Royal Fleet also sailed to the Arbor Island to join the fleet from the Reach.

And Robert received a letter from Tywin: Lannister port has been attacked by the Iron Islands, and almost all the fleet has been burned.Hearing that the fleet of his father-in-law's family had been attacked, Robert wanted to go on a personal conquest this time. He led 1500 gold-cloaked troops from the Kingsguard and King's Landing City, and 4000 troops from the king's collar to the west of Lannister Port. During the march, other nobles led troops to join.

Werther and Renly were also in the team. The Stormlands were too far away. Renly only brought 500 Stormlander cavalry on their way quickly, led by Earl Selwyn Tars of the Evening Hall. The main task was to maneuver quickly on land. Intercepting and killing the few Iron Islands troops who landed or escaped ashore, Renly's own priority was to stay by Robert's side to provide protection.

After Renly got rich, he customized a suit of armor for himself, and chased him on horseback to show off in front of Werther.

"Mages should wear heavy armor, because the magic power will always run out."

Werther warned Renly, and Renly looked at Werther in his normal clothes,

"Then why don't you wear armor?"

"My magic power is more than ten times that of yours." This sentence made Renly choke and couldn't speak.

"Where did you get your sword?" Renly saw Werther's weapon hanging from his saddle, which he had never carried before.

"It was made by a blacksmith in King's Landing City. It is made of the same material and craftsmanship as the sword of the Kingsguard, only shorter."

Werther knew that this was Renly's first time on the battlefield, and there was nothing to worry about on land with Renly's strength as a mage, but this time it was a sea battle, so he couldn't help but remind him

"Remember when we went out to sea in Storm's End to practice ice magic?"

"Remember, take off your armor quickly after falling into the water, and then freeze the seawater into ice so you can climb on the ice to rest." It seems that I haven't forgotten.

Werther saw Loras Tyrell again. This kid was less than 10 years old. Like other knight servants of the same age, he only needed to follow the rear of the army to do logistical work, but as Renly's knight servant, he would definitely follow the blue Li's side, also told him:

"You're not wearing armor, and your clothes are too obvious. Be careful with the arrows. Go find a shield first when you get on the boat."

"Thank you, I will pay attention." Tyrell's family is rich, and Loras is also dressed in fine clothes as a knight servant, because he is a great nobleman, even if he does logistics, he directs others to do it.

Chapter 26 Fairy Island Naval Battle

When the large army arrived at Lannister Port, Robert saw Tywin's sad face. There were three fleets, but now one was destroyed before leaving the port.It is very normal in this world to make a fortune in war, and the victor loots the wealth of the loser, but first you have to get over it.

Stannis' fleet was loaded with Robert's army.Earl Paxter's fleet in the Reach is going to load the northern army. This time there will not be many people going to the west, so they can only defend the coast with the troops in the Riverland.

Werther saw Tywin for the second time, and the first time was at Robert's wedding. At that time, he was thinking about things and didn't pay attention to him. Now that he saw Tywin, he had shaved his head and was wearing the armor of the Lannister family. His cloak wrapped in gold thread.His brother Kevan followed him on horseback.

[I have to admit that Tywin is very capable personally, and he is also good at diplomacy, economics, employment, and military command. Now that Robert is short of money, he also borrows money from his father-in-law.But if you are his enemy, he will kill you, he will not give up until he achieves his goal, and he has no bottom line in doing things. Unlike other nobles who can redeem captives, he said killing your whole family really killed your whole family.What's more, he also has a younger brother, Kefeng, who is called his shadow.You thought you were dealing with him alone, but in fact there were two of you. 】

Say hello to Tywin, and Tywin also salutes back. There is no expression on Tywin's face. It is said that he only laughed a few times in his life. Werther felt bored, so he boarded the ship first.

Werther was in the vanguard with Stannis, and Robert's landing force was behind, and he and Jaime had time to chat with Tywin again.The king will bring a bachelor to record the king's words and deeds when he travels officially. Robert and Tywin are bragging and chatting with each other. Later, Robert will probably talk about borrowing money in private.

There were originally three navies this time, but now Lannister's naval warships have been burned out, leaving only the Royal Fleet and the Riverland Fleet.The Reach Fleet was commanded by Paxter Redwyne, nephew of the Queen of Thorns, and the Royal Fleet was commanded by Stannis.

The port is full of warships. Lannister Harbor is very large but still can't accommodate so many ships. It can only dock some ships after the supply is over, and other ships will come to dock.The fleets all came from the west and south of the mainland. They needed supplies after the long voyage. Workers of food, arrows, and kerosene pots were busy carrying them to each ship. Werther also saw pickle pots being carried.

Kimchi was created when Werther was in the school city.I just want to eat some kimchi, there is no technical content, there is no shortage of salt in this world, and vegetables can be preserved for a long time.In the past, except in most places in the north, vegetables could not be preserved for a long time after harvest, so they could only grow some potatoes and other good ones for preservation. Now there is kimchi technology, and the kimchi pots are also made of pottery. Ordinary farmers can afford it. It is popular in various places, and the vegetables have a unique flavor. Now the poor also like to eat a slice of kimchi in black bread, and the rich eat white bread with kimchi and a slice of meat.

It took a long time to find Stannis' warship in the port. He was wearing the armor of the royal army, and he was discussing the attack plan with Paxter and several senior officers in the cabin.

When people in the cabin saw Werther coming, they all saluted and said hello to him.

"You're welcome, I've just come to talk to Stannis about what I can do in this fight."

Paxter looked at Stannis, meaning this is your brother, you arrange it yourself.Stannis directly stated the previous plan:

"I heard from Robert about your use of magic in the Red Keep, and you are now assigned to the left vanguard of the Royal Fleet."

"I'm on a ship with the fleet?"

"Of course, the left army has a total of 200 warships."

Werther guessed that Robert hadn't made it clear how powerful his magic was now, and Stannis still thought it was the same as when he was a child, and said with a magic flame on his left hand:

"In battle at sea, ships are most afraid of fire. Although my flames can't burn ships immediately, if I only burn the sails, as long as it's not raining, a small fireball is enough. Burning dozens of ships should be no problem. Second brother, let's see how to arrange it."

Stannis conferred with Paxter, and said:

"Then I will arrange a fast boat for you alone, and burn the sails of the enemy's warship rushing ahead before the battle, causing confusion in the opponent's formation. Don't go to the boarding battle, and then burn the opponent the sails of the fleeing warship."

In this world, neither the compass nor the sextant was invented. As a mechanical student in college, he must know how to make it. These are all basic knowledge, but Werther does not want to make two things just yet.Now sailing ships can only go along the coast. Warships have both sails and oars. The sails are used for daily sailing, and the oars are used for charging in wartime. After all, human physical strength is limited. He declared that he could not escape.

Before the crossing, Werther couldn't even swim, and he didn't even know anything about sailing. The sailors didn't dare to let the Duke do rough work, so they could only eat, eat and sleep on the ship.

The warship is not big, about 30 meters long, with a mainsail and a triangular jib, and the cabin has only one layer. It is usually equipped with supplies, and the oars will be extended out of the cabin in wartime. flexibility.There are shields on both sides of the deck, and some sailors.

Normally on a warship, there would be a large number of brazier archers shooting, or shield soldiers fighting side by side, but this ship had sailors and oarsmen, and the combatants on board were only myself and a few sent by Stannis. A bodyguard, who protects Werther and also keeps combat records, lightly loaded the clippers.

A few days later, just halfway through dinner, I heard the alarm bells on all the ships in the fleet start to ring.Werther walked out of the cabin. At this time, Stannis' main fleet had joined the left army, and thousands of warships had begun to disperse and prepare for the attack formation.

The small scout ship had returned, alongside Stannis' flagship.The sails of the Iron Islands fleet could already be seen in the distance, and a short horn sounded from the flagship after a while, and Werther heard that this was the signal agreed before.

"Captain, separate from the main force and go alone!" Werther didn't know how to steer the ship, so he could only give the captain the order to go, and let him coordinate the sailors himself.

The warship slowly left the fleet and drove in front of the fleet. More than 100 oars on the ship have been stretched out, ready to charge at any time.

The fleets of both sides are slowly approaching, and the sun is about to set, and the sky is full of red clouds, until the Iron Islands fleet starts to rush here,

It was Witter's first time participating in a naval battle, and he couldn't see anyone on the Iron Islands side of the ship. He could only tell which ship was bigger. There were several large ships of the same style on the opposite side, so he could only guess whether it was the flagship of the other party.

The soldiers of the Royal Fleet only saw the horn of our flagship, and there was a fast ship in the fleet. Against the background of a large fleet of thousands of warships and a large black sail, they charged forward alone. The fleets on both sides All attention is naturally focused on this one ship.

Werther stood at the bow, and the two guards on the left and right held up shields and were ready to protect at any time.Seeing that there are still a few hundred meters away from the Iron Islands fleet, I ordered again

"Captain, turn to the left and go full speed." The ship turned immediately and drove sideways between the two opposing fleets.

[Today, the sky is clear and the weather is fine. It is easy to burn the sails. You don’t need to use your hands to cast spells, and you don’t need the explosion fireball technique. You can just use the ordinary fireball technique.]

After thinking about it, he moved his hands forward to aim at the front of the Iron Islands fleet, and two bucket-sized fireballs shot out from his hands. The golden-red fireballs slid across the sea and flew towards the Iron Islands fleet.

A fireball flew too high, missed any ships and continued on into the distance.

A fireball hit the forward ship, and the fireball spread out. The sails were all made of hemp. The current technology can achieve waterproof treatment, but it can't have both fire prevention and fire. It got bigger and bigger, spreading to the entire sail, and the fire also began to burn on the mast, and the red-hot sawdust kept falling.

[The opposing fleet is lined up in a row, just need to adjust the height, and now you can start shooting]

Witnessed by countless soldiers on both sides, Werther's hands began to fire continuously at a rate of two per second. Countless fireballs were shot from a single ship, crossed the sea, and landed on the sails of the enemy army.

More and more ships in front of the Iron Islands fleet started to catch fire and began to slow down. The ships behind could only dodge, and the formation of the entire fleet began to be chaotic.

When the soldiers of the Royal Fleet saw that the opposite fleet was on fire, they all roared on the ship, and their morale was greatly boosted. Seeing this, Stannis ordered the whole army to charge.

All the ships began to paddle and charge, and Werther continued to shoot fireballs. The Iron Islands fleet sent several ships to chase after them, but they were hit by several fireballs on the sails. They couldn't catch up with paddles alone. Much farther than a bow and arrow.

When the fleets of both sides approached, most of the warships of the Iron Islands fleet were already on fire. The morale of the royal fleet was high. Rockets fired rockets, and boarding battles. The morale of the Iron Islands began to collapse, and the ships behind began to turn and flee.

But from the north came Paxter's Reach Fleet, attacking from north to south, and Werther's clippers kept firing balls at the fleeing warships.At the end of the battle, the Royal Fleet and the Reach Fleet suffered only minor losses, while most of the Iron Islands Fleet was burned and only a few were captured.

After the war, the two fleets gathered news that Baron's eldest son, Roderick, had been killed by Earl Jason Mallister.In this naval battle near the Fairy Isle, the brother of the rebel Baron Greyjoy: Aeron Greyjoy was killed by the burned mast falling down, burning about 210 warships, and sinking 65 warships 210 warships and about 400 small boats were seized, and more than 2000 people were captured, ignoring the escaped boats for the time being.

Werther told Stannis before that if he used magic to fight, he would not have much magic power for a period of time, so Stannis asked Werther to join Robert's landing force behind, and other warships and warships hit the Iron Islands first. Finally converge to attack Pike Island where Balon Greyjoy is located.

Chapter 27 Before the final battle

Barristan and Stannis attack Old Wik.Werther set off with several other warships carrying letters and sending important prisoners of war to meet Robert. By the time they met, Robert had already captured the Great Wigg Island and was now preparing to attack Pike Island.

There are Pike City and King Harbor on Pike Island.King's Harbor is the residence of the Botley family, and it is also the nearest big port to Pike City.Pike City is the residence of the Greyjoy family, and taking down the rebel king's city means the end of the rebellion. Even if Balon escapes, the army's morale will no longer be able to gather again.

Werther's ship was next to Robert's flagship. After boarding the ship, he saw that Robert was discussing the attack plan with everyone. The name of King's Harbor sounds lofty, but in fact only a small number of buildings are built of stone, and most of them are made of wood. The fortress of the Turley family was also made of wood, so a lot of fire supplies were prepared for this attack.

Seeing Werther coming, Robert asked

"This time we use fire attack. I heard that you burned more than 200 warships of Baron in the sea battle of Fairy Island. Has your mana recovered?"

"I haven't recovered yet, I can only protect myself." Werther saw so many nobles and generals beside him.

[Even if most of the magic power has been recovered, it will not be said.According to the current magic power, it would be no problem to use fire magic to burn most of Junwanggang, but why did these people come all the way here?I just want to make meritorious deeds. If I take all the credit by myself, I will be hated by others. Robert is probably on the top again. I want to be invincible in the world, not to be an enemy of the world. Brother, don’t hurt me. 】

Robert didn't think too much, and said to the nobles and generals:

"That will still be carried out according to our original plan. The warships will directly attack the port to drag down the rebels. The landing troops will land from outside the city and then attack from the land. Werther, you go to the landing troops."

Werther took the order, thinking [this attack on King's Harbor is going to be done without effort, and it will play a role when we attack Pike City. It's best to kill a few members of the Greyjoy family directly, and we can't show Robert's style. Chance. 】

Robert was not good at sea battles, so he had to go to the landing side. Most of the people from the northern border were not good at sea battles, and many of them couldn't even swim, so they all had heavy armor.

Werther asked Renly to protect Robert, and went to the ship of the landing force by himself.The battle started quickly, and the rebels guarding the port were dragged down in the naval battle. The landing went smoothly. Werther ran around with his guards but didn't see any acquaintances, so he had to follow the large force to attack the port.

Because they wanted to be lazy this time, they ran slower and slower, and gradually reached the end of the army. When the soldiers saw that they were wearing noble robes and holding swords, not even wearing armor, and accompanied by guards, they all believed that Werther was a nobleman who had come to melee. Cast contemptuous glances.

Werther didn't bother to pay attention to these people, and just followed the large army slowly, and waited until the entire port was burned into a sea of ​​flames before entering the city.

[Although my own magic is very powerful, in front of the crowd tactics, I can use the corpses of friendly soldiers as shields to charge. Once I get close, I will be hacked to death. 】

The attack went smoothly, mainly because the opponent's defense facilities were too poor. Once the Iron Islands fleet was wiped out, except for a few fortresses on the land, there were other wooden walls. It was okay to defend against pirates. When encountering regular troops, they would basically push them flat.

The battle ended quickly, and the entire family of the Portley family in Port King was captured. The entire port was basically scrapped, and the soldiers began to tear down the wood from the house to build siege equipment.

The logistical force also docked and sent several teams of scouts to monitor Pike City. The rest of the soldiers began to set up camps, light fires and cook. It was estimated that it would be two or three days after the construction of the engineering equipment was completed.

Find Robert's camp, this guy is drinking with Ed Stark and the generals of the North, many people here are old friends who raised troops with Robert a few years ago, and some have been there for several years No, we couldn't get together on our respective boats before, but now we are chatting happily.

Werther greeted the acquaintances, poured wine from a glass and found a place to sit down. Robert introduced to everyone:

"This is my fourth brother, Werther Baratheon. Some friends have never seen him. Some friends saw him a few years ago when he was a child. Now he has grown up and can fight."

Seeing the gazes cast by everyone, it was as familiar as Ed Stark looking at an old friend. Others probably heard the rumors that Witt was wandering around the back of the battlefield today, with contempt in his eyes. Foreigners don't like to put on airs, and if Robert hadn't been there, someone would have cursed.

Werther had anticipated it, explaining

"I have been storing magic power for the time being to attack Pike City. I will use magic to destroy the city walls. Brother Robert, you can order to stop the construction of siege equipment, and you can start to attack the city at dawn tomorrow!"

"I've seen your magic in the Red Castle before. Flames, frost, and lightning. I believe no one can bear it when they hit people. But these don't seem to have much effect on the walls of the Red Castle?"

Robert was also a little unbelievable, and told his knowledge of Werther's magic. At the same time, he also wanted Werther to explain everyone's doubts. After all, he trusted his younger brother in military matters, but he gave up building siege equipment and assembled an army to attack the city. Morale is in trouble.

"Brother, you forgot, I know more than just magic like fire, frost, and lightning."

After speaking, Werther used the magic light technique, and a ball of light flew out of his hand and revolved around his body.

Except for Robert, it was the first time to see real magic at the scene. Before Robert fought Daweike Island, there were a few guards around him, and Renly didn't have a chance to use it, so they all gathered around to observe.

"Okay, order to stop building siege equipment, gather the whole army at dawn tomorrow, and attack Pike City."

The king's official order was issued, and everyone could not stay here to drink anymore. They all went to reorganize the army. After a while, only Brother Baratheon was left.

In fact, Robert himself was curious

"Fourth, you have been researching magic all these years, and all kinds of new magic are emerging one after another, but what kind of magic are you going to use to destroy the city wall tomorrow?"

"It should be the hardest kind of magic, High Valyrian magic."

"High Valyrian?" Robert heard the Valyrian word, alarmed.

Werther knew what he was worried about "High Valyrian is completely different from normal Valyrian, and to use magic is a higher stage, I think the Targaryen family was lost when they were in the Eastland Magic can only be used as a language, and the generation of Prince Rhaegar has lost even high-level languages, only ordinary Valyrian, which is spoken by many people in the Eastern Continent."

Robert is relieved now.

"I really dreamed that the descendants of the Targaryen family fought back in King's Landing."

"I have the most say in this world in terms of magic. I taught Renly a full set of High Valyrian and magic spells, and even he couldn't use them, so don't worry, brother."

Robert turned to look at Renly, who also said

"It's very complicated. I haven't made any progress after studying it for half a year. It feels like another magic system."

Werther thought [that's for sure, High Valyrian magic is actually the roar of the dragon, without the dragon soul in the body, it can't be used no matter what]

"In addition, brother, you can also ask your intelligence officer to pay attention to the incidents related to magic in the mainland, including people and things. If they don't understand it, let me investigate."

Robert took a sip of his wine, looked at Werther and raised his eyes, "Yes?"

"There are too few mages." Werther sighed [The recovery of magic power in this world is irreversible, and there will definitely be more and more people with magic power in the future, such as the Green Prophet and the Shapechanger in the mainland, the Faceless Man and the King of Light in the Eastern Continent .There are other hidden factions that will take action in the future, and will each pull potential seeds to their own genre. 】

"Magic is a treasure. It's just me and Renly. Even if we exhaust our lives, we can't see the end. So when I meet the right person, I will recruit students to teach magic. Renly can also teach the recovery department now, etc. In a few years, he will be able to accept apprentices."

Werther looked at Robert seriously.
