Game of Thrones: Dragonborn Comes

Dorne's spices were shipped to Storm's End for processing and bottled, and merchant ships were transported from the east coast of the mainland to the north. They were very popular in this cold place. Jorah Mormont tasted it at a banquet in Winterfell , so he took over the business of shipping to the west, and Ed didn't care, as long as someone bought it, he would sell it.

"Big Bear" Jorah bought goods from Winterfell, and then sold them from the west coast of the mainland to the south. People in the West and the Reach gradually liked this seasoning. En's things are very contradictory.In addition, the spices have been processed and the original products cannot be seen, so they quickly became popular in the West and the Reach. Everyone said that the things in the north were good.

Just happened to meet Ed to call a meeting, so he attended the meeting as the Lord of Bear Island.It has been a while since Ed received the letter. Except for a few distant lords, most of the nobles in the northern border have arrived.

Maester Luwin circulated Robert's letter to the others, and the maids poured wine.

Ed: "What do you think about the conquest of the Stone Step Islands?"

Earl Wyman Manderly of White Harbor stood up and spoke first: "I support the conquest of the Stepstone Islands. Although my fleet is small, it was also robbed by pirates in the Stepstone Islands, let alone the southern fleet. , no more conquest, the pirates will be richer than us!"

His speech was supported by most of the lords involved in maritime trade.

Earl Gabert Glover of Deepwood Motte had a different opinion: "But these losses are very small. How many years have there been no pirates? These losses should be within your tolerance. The King mobilized the Seven Kingdoms to join the war this time, I think It’s simply making a fuss over a molehill.”

Wyman Manderly of White Harbor: "That was before! My current fleet is small, compared to Storm's End, but it is also twice the size of my previous fleet! Your Deepwood Castle is in the deep mountains and old forests , of course they don’t care about our lives!”

People in the northern border have a big temper, and they will quarrel after a few words, but everyone will not really hurt their harmony. Many nobles are like this at home.

Catelyn Tully: "Maester Luwin, tell me."

Maester Luwin took out a piece of paper full of words from the back of his seat and stood up: "I have a list of materials in each territory. In the past ten years, the flow of trade materials in our northern territory has increased by three times. I will give you have a look."

Ed took advantage of the circulation and whispered a few words to his wife, Catelyn Tully, and Maester Luwin.

After everyone circulated it, Ed spoke again: "Now the north-south trade is increasing. If the lords in the south have no money, who will buy our fur? Who will buy our meat? If there is no such income, we will buy the south. Several nobles in Ironware are going bankrupt. What do you think, Sir Roose Bolton?"

Roose Bolton of Dreadfort is gentle and soft-spoken: "I don't know about the other lords. The cows raised in Dreadfort can cover all expenses last year by selling smoked beef jerky, let alone There are cowhide products, which are sold to the southerners, and if they are harassed by pirates and run out of money, I won’t be able to eat so much beef myself.”

The Karstark family from the farthest city of Kahoe City is a branch of the Stark family in Winterfell in terms of blood relationship. Earl Rickard Karstark walked into the middle of the hall wearing clothes made of wolf skin:

"I am very supportive of the conquest! But everyone, have you noticed that Robert mobilized the troops of the Seven Kingdoms this time, but only let us go south to the Reach and maintain order in the king's land. Everyone knows the rules on the battlefield. This kind of war will be fought to the end. , even if we win, what benefits do we get?"

He turned to Ed: "Lord Duke Ed, if it's such a war, I'll just send my attendants to ride on horseback and hold my flag."

"Hahaha"

"I'll go with a flag too."

Everyone laughed, only by doing meritorious deeds in war can we share the benefits. If it is only to maintain law and order, the benefits that can be obtained after spending money and effort are the dregs left by others.

Caitlin Tully looked at Ed, Ed nodded, and Caitlin Tully stood up: "I have received a letter from my father, Duke Hoster Tully." After speaking, she took out a rolled up stationery.

"The land of the river has decided to support King Robert's proposal, and has now begun to prepare troops and supplies."

"What? Hejian land is ready to send troops right away?"

"Coax" everyone whispered to each other and started a discussion.

Ed got up and began to speak: "Everyone knows that there are more than a dozen large islands in the Stone Steps Islands, on which castles can be built and cultivated, and there are countless small islands. Once included in the territory of the Seven Kingdoms, the trade with the Eastern Continent will be smooth. Without hindrance, our people will be richer.”

With leaders and money, lords from all over the country began to support sending troops. Anyway, people in the north are not good at water warfare. They don't need to fight if they go there, and they can get as much benefit as they can.

The two lords walked to the middle of the hall and saluted Ed.

"On behalf of the Bolton family, I support sending troops."

"On behalf of the Karstarks, I support the troops."

Other lords also began to stand up in support of sending troops.

Ed went on to say: "I understand that we northerners are not good at naval warfare, but I will also propose to the king to send a fleet and landing force."

At this time, there was no voice of opposition, and all the lords had clearly expressed their support.Roose Bolton and Rickard Casta looked up, looked at Ed and smiled slightly, and Ed nodded in response.

The steward of Winterfell, Vayon Poole, stood up and rang the small bell: "My lords, rest first, and a dinner will be held here later."

"Okay!" "Haha" "Drink you tonight!" Everyone started booing again.

Although Jorah Mormont was old enough, he was still immature in front of this group of old lords. He didn't say anything throughout the whole process, and finally followed him to support the dispatch of troops. He thought that Bear Island now has a large fleet, and whether it can directly participate in the battle of the Stone Steps Islands Instead of maintaining stability, talk about it with Duke Ed during the dinner.

Eddard Stark and his wife returned to the small hall to rest.

"It's tiring convincing them!"

Caitlin Tully came over and rubbed his shoulders: "After all, their actual interests have not been touched. Even if you order compulsory recruitment in the name of the Duke, they will still work without doing anything. Now is the best result."

Ed: "Fortunately, I listened to you in advance. I got through with Roose Bolton and Rickard Casta, and I have the two of them supporting me."

Caitlin Tully: "This time it's a foreign war. It's too far away from the northern border. The same goes for Tully's house. It's not the main force of this war."

At this moment there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Catelyn Tully asked.

"Asha Greyjoy and Theon Greyjoy come to Lord Eddard."

"Come in." Caitlin Tully straightened her clothes and sat beside her.She also knew about the siblings. After Werther arrived in the north, his son followed him to King's Landing. The two siblings suddenly started training desperately. She asked Ed on the sidelines.

The two siblings opened the door and came in. The original Asha was a bit puffy, but now she has lost a lot of weight. Theon has changed even more. Before, she was as thin as a stick, and she looked like a slump. Now her muscles are tight and her person has become more spiritual.

"Lord Ed, Mrs. Caitlin." The two greeted each other formally.Ed took out a letter, the stag wax seal on the letter had been opened: "This is a letter from the king, please read it first."

The two took the letter and read it quickly. Asha naturally took the letter to the candlestick and lit it.

Ed: "White Baratheon has killed Viserys Targaryen, and the news will spread soon. And Robert's task for you is to get close to Daenerys Targaryen, This time I will send you to participate in the battle of the Stone Step Islands, and then arrange for you to defect.”

"Master Ed, we are ready!" Theon was very excited. The training for more than a year has tortured him a lot. Although it was voluntary, he no longer wants to live this kind of hard life.

"I'll teach you how to behave, and I'll be in charge of your training. After you leave Winterfell, I won't be able to take care of you anymore." Ed was a little sad.

"Lord Ed, although we were born in Pike City, Winterfell will always be our second home." Asha replied.

"Lord Ed, we will never forget what you taught us." Theon also responded resolutely.

Ed: "I don't know exactly how to arrange it. You will follow the northern fleet to meet up with the large forces at the Stone Step Islands. When you arrive, you will go to Renly Baratheon privately. You name him. The guards will take you to meet him. He should be easy to recognize, he looks the same as Werther."

The two nodded yes.

Ed: "But who is the right person to take you to the Stone Step Islands?"

There was another knock at the door.

Catelyn Tully: "Who?"

"I am Ser Jorah Mormont of Bear Island, looking for Lord Eddard."

The four looked at each other, and this person was delivered to the door.

~~~

Casterly Rock City in the west.

Jaime is no longer the Kingsguard, but he still insists on wearing the armor of the Westland, which he used to say.

However, as the heir of the Western Territory, he usually does not live in Casterly Rock City, but lives in Sarsfield City.

He received a letter from his father and rushed to Casterly Rock City, where he met his brother, the little devil Tyrion, outside the city.

"Aha, my dear brother, hello." James was in a good mood. After dismounting from his horse, he threw the rope to the guards and greeted his brother first.

Little Devil Tyrion: "I'm here to pick you up. You know, it's rumored that you've taken a fancy to Sir Maewen Sarsfield's wife and shared a wife with him."

James walked into the castle with the little devil Tyrion: "You and I both know that's a rumor."

Little Devil Tyrion: "But rumors will tarnish your reputation. You are now the heir to the West, not the 50 Golden Dragon Knights!"

James' expression froze: "Could it be that I will live in another place every month?"

The little devil Tyrion looked at a knight attendant following James, pointed at him and looked at James: "You can take him to travel elsewhere, or you can take him out in the name of suppressing bandits. "

Knight attendants have no armor or helmets. Their job is to raise horses for knights, maintain armor and weapons, and serve the lives of knights. The nature is similar to that of apprentices. Knights will also teach him martial arts. Many noble children will choose one to become famous. knights as squires.

Although the attendant is wearing the costume representing the attendant, the fabrics are the most luxurious, and there are the family emblems of the Sarsfield family's green arrows on the shoulders and chest, which all show that he is a nobleman, but he is full of blond hair, and The brown hair of the Sarsfields was quite different.

James: "I don't care about these things. What else do you care about? Never mind. Why did father call me back in such a hurry? Reveal it."

Little Devil Tyrion: "I have just finished my career as a handyman, and now I have been promoted to Chief Cleaner of Port Lannister. What do you think I can know?"

James was very puzzled: "I didn't have this position before, Chief Cleaning Minister, sounds good."

"That's because I'm the only cleaner in Lannister now!" Little devil Tyrion was indignant. "Father turned on all the cleaners and let me clean the entire Port of Lannister by myself. Do you think this official position is good?"

James smiled: "But I think you look good, you should have done a good job!"

Little Devil Tyrion: "What else can I do, I collect the rotten fish and rotten shrimps in the port and sell them to the poor, and let them clean them for me, that's all!"

As they spoke, the two entered the room where Tywin was, and the blond knight servant also entered, but he consciously stood by the wall behind James.

"Father, what's the matter?" James poured himself and his brother two glasses of rum.

Tywin was discussing things with his younger brother Kevan, and there were two letters on the table beside them.

Tywin ignored him for the time being, pointed to the letter, and turned to talk to Kaifeng again.

James came to Tyrion with the letter. He knew that his brother was short in stature, and he had unconsciously helped him do this kind of thing since he was a child.

"Assemble the forces of the Seven Kingdoms to attack the Stone Step Islands?"

"Welter Baratheon killed Viserys Targaryen?"

Both of them were surprised by the contents of the letter they saw, but it was obviously not the same thing, so they quickly returned the letter.

Tywin and his brother stopped discussing, turned around, and Kefeng said:

"What business does it matter to us that Werther Baratheon killed Viserys Targaryen? It is how he did it that you should watch."

"Magic, destroyed a town! Killed thousands of mercenaries of the Golden Company at once!" James and the little devil Tyrion were shocked, which was almost comparable to a few mouthfuls of legendary dragon flames.

Tywin: "Witter Baratheon's personal ability has reached the point where it cannot be ignored. He is now worth an army alone."

"I strongly agree!" The little devil Tyrion answered quickly.

James remained silent. He had trained with Werther before, and he had seen Wirter's magic, but now Werther's growth rate was too fast, and it was beyond the scope of ordinary people's comprehension.

Tywin: "But he is still human, and he is still on the Essos continent. Then the most important thing now is to send troops to the Stone Step Islands from the Seven Kingdoms. James!"

James came back to his senses: "The pirates of the Stepstone Islands also plundered the merchant ships of our Lannister family. It's not bad to send troops to destroy them."

Tywin: "What I want to say is not whether we will send troops, but how much we will send! In the north, the riverlands, and the valleys, Robert sent them to the king's land to defend us!"

Kevan went on to say: "Because of the last incident, the king is very afraid of our Lannister family. If we send fewer troops, the three in the north may directly fight us. If we send more troops, the interior will be empty. They will be robbed, and the nobles under him have a lot of personal enmity.”

James looked at Tywin: "Then I, the heir, can only personally lead the troops to the Stone Step Islands."

Tywin turned his head to look at the attendant by the wall without saying a word. He used to be arrogant and domineering, but now he has become much calmer.

"It's good that you know, I have already received the news that it is inevitable to gather the power of the Seven Kingdoms to conquer the Stone Step Islands this time, and some nobles have already started conscription."

Tywin looked at James and said seriously:

"Once the Stone Step Islands are conquered, a new duke will be born there! You are the heir of the Lannister family, so you don't need to take credit for this, but to find out who the new duke is, and take the initiative to make friends with them in advance! "

James understood. "Okay father, I remember."

Tywin said to Tyrion again: "You go to Golden Tooth City and help with the logistical defense there. Kevan will go to Deep Cavern City to organize the defense."

Little Devil Tyrion: "Have things come to this point?"

Tywin: "This time we were a little careless, and the Lannister family is really gone."

Chapter 94 Na Saxing

In the early morning, the Lorne River was foggy, and the trees on both sides were dense. Many trees fell into the river and flowed down the river. Fortunately, the Lorne River was relatively wide, and the current was not too fast during the rainy season. The water flows down.

All the windows in the cabin were opened for ventilation, and the captain's wife knocked on the door.

"Master Witte, the hot water is ready."

Tyene got up, stood behind the door and opened the door a crack, and opened the door to bring in the water basin after seeing the captain's wife.

The captain's wife sees Tyene:

"I was in such a good shape when I was young!"

"Ha ha."

"My husband asked me to tell Lord Werther that when the ship reaches the Dorne River, there will be a lot of bandits. Sometimes Dothraki will also participate in the robbery."

"thanks for reminding."

Tyene closed the door and put the hot tub on the table, turned and jumped onto the bed.

"Trenee!" Nymeria yelled after being stepped on by Tyene, waking up from her dream.

"Get up! Get up!" Tyene continued to jump up and down on the bed, trying to stomp Werther again.
