Game of Thrones: Holy Flame King

The battle on the north bank of the Blackwater River has entered the most brutal stage of a war of attrition.

Soldiers from all over Westeros brandished their knives and guns, releasing the tyranny and barbarism hidden in their hearts to their heart's content, and also exchanged the blood of themselves and their enemies for that share of glory.

The sun slowly sets from the west and rises again from the east.

The supervisory team in front of the northern army did not know how many heads they had cut off, but no matter how they launched wave after wave of charges, they still couldn't break through the enemy's formation, and even a chance to penetrate into the enemy's formation did not appear.

The Southern Army's defense line on the river bank seemed to be made of iron, and it didn't move at all except that countless soldiers of the Northern Army were beaten to death.

Of course, in order to resist round after round of crazy attacks by the Northern Army, the Southern Army also paid a huge price in casualties.

The most damaged army came from Bright Water City in Hewan. Its casualty rate exceeded 30%, and it was almost on the verge of collapse.

But because the commander-in-chief of this army, Earl Dickon Tarly, took the lead in the front line and never retreated after being hit by several arrows, this inspired his soldiers to fight to the end without taking a step back.

After Samwell received the report, he immediately ordered the team to be withdrawn and replaced with a new force from the south bank.

Earl Dickon had no choice but to lead his army back. At this time, he was covered in blood, his armor was damaged in several places, and he could even see bloody wounds through the holes.

When he passed by Bailong, he was reprimanded by Samwell, don't act recklessly, and rush forward in a daze after everything has become an earl, Dickon just nodded with a silly smile.

Seeing his younger brother's appearance, Samwell felt helpless in his heart, and sent him to the rear to heal his wounds, while secretly wondering.

Since falling out with the Lord of Light on Blood Reef Island, Melisandre told him that his younger brother Dickon could no longer feel the power of the Lord of Light.

But now seeing Dickon's crazy and fearless appearance, Samwell didn't know for a while whether his younger brother was brave and fearless by nature, or whether the influence of the King of Light on him had not been completely eliminated.

However, at this time, Samwell didn't have time to think about such things. Taking advantage of the gap between the northern army's attack, he came to the front of the battle in person to cheer up the soldiers.

On the other hand, Duke Tywin didn't have the peace of mind of his opponent.

Seeing that no matter how he attacked, the enemy's defenses could not be shaken, so Duke Tywin inevitably became anxious.

And at this moment, the messenger of King's Landing brought bad news, which completely ignited the anger and fear of the King's Hand.

"Lord Tywin, we have received news that the Braavosi encountered the Stormland fleet on their way back..."

"Stormland Fleet?" Duke Tywin's tone changed, "Didn't they go to the river bend?"

"The ironborn should have led them here. The Braavosi people saw a battle erupting between the two sides in the western waters of Tidehead Island, and after the Stormland fleet saw the Braavosi fleet, they still had enough power to send ships to intercept them, so Now it's a three-way melee..."

"Why did Euron come..." Duke Tywin asked halfway and swallowed it down.

Because he realizes that such questions make no sense at all.

Who can figure out the psychology and motives of a madman?

No one in the sea monster family is normal.

When Balon Greyjoy was under the unification of the Seven Kingdoms, he dared to brazenly raise troops to become king and loot everywhere. Naturally, he was suppressed by the army gathered by the Iron Throne.

Now the Crow's Eye's brain is not normal.

Originally, he thought that the two sides had a common enemy, Caesar, so he extended an olive branch out of good intentions, and even came forward to match him with the Redwyne family on Qingting Island, but who would have thought that this lunatic would actually kill someone at the wedding.

The alliance naturally became a joke.

Of course, it doesn't matter if they don't form an alliance. In Duke Tywin's view, it is an acceptable result for the Ironborn to go to the Hoho River Bend and involve Caesar's troops.

Unexpectedly, this lunatic would not snatch the river bay that was close at hand, and actually led the Iron Fleet around half of the Westeros continent to Blackwater Bay...

Duke Tywin really couldn't understand what the Crow's Eye was thinking.

Although the war is full of various accidents, such accidents are too absurd, even a mature and experienced Duke Tywin can hardly keep calm at this time.

The scuffle on Blackwater Cove severely jeopardized his plans.

If the Braavosians cannot break through the interception of the Stormland Fleet and come to the Blackwater River for support, the consequences will be unimaginable.

The light in Duke Tywin's eyes jumped sharply.

This moment was probably the most terrible crisis he had encountered in his life.

Back then when the Mad King deposed him as prime minister, Tai Wen was calm. After all, he was still young and had a chance to rise again.

When the War of the Reavers broke out, Tywin was also calm and calm, waiting patiently until the overall situation was settled, and then suddenly jumped out to join the victorious side.

Even when Joffrey was revealed to be a chaotic and a false king during the Southern Expedition to Dorne, Tywin did not lose his temper, but decisively killed Renly, framed Martell, and won him over. Tyrell, planted nails in the three northern realms... Although there were some accidents later, it finally allowed him to stabilize the situation in King's Landing.

The Iron Throne is still in Lannister hands.

But now, he has to face the most terrifying enemy of the Lannister family, and the current situation is extremely bad.

Duke Tywin knew very well that Lannister could not afford to lose this battle.

The Mad King deposes him, and he can return to Casterly Rock to continue to be the Duke. When the Reaver War breaks out, he can watch the battle calmly with the heavy troops of the West in his hand. Even if Joffrey's identity is questioned, he has the ability to clean up the biggest threat and seize the Iron Throne .

But not anymore.

If Caesar cannot be prevented from crossing the river, the consequences will be disastrous.

It was rare for the messenger to see such a flustered, even terrified expression on the face of the Hand of the King, and he felt uneasy in his heart, but he still bite the bullet and said again:

"Lord Tywin, Lord Tyrion also asked me to tell you that King's Landing is running out of food, and there have been several riots in the city because of the lack of food..."

"Didn't I tell him?" The irritability in Duke Tywin's heart broke out completely, "Any riots will be suppressed! What? He dare not kill?"

"No... Lord Tyrion said..."

"I don't want to hear any excuses." Duke Tywin interrupted coldly again, "Go back and tell him that if the situation in King's Landing is not stable, when I return to the teacher, I will definitely chop off his head and hang it on the top of the Red Castle. "

"Yes Yes……"

"Go back immediately and don't tell anyone what you just told me."

"Yes, my lord." The messenger nodded quickly, as if fleeing and leaving the camp.

Duke Tywin was stunned for a moment alone, and finally regained his composure.

He has an indomitable character, and he won't give up easily until he sees the outcome.

To some extent, this can be regarded as the paranoid side of Tywin.

Since the Braavosi were unreliable, it was up to him.

After Duke Tywin made up his mind, he immediately held a military meeting.

He didn't inform everyone about the situation on Blackwater Bay, and of course he didn't say anything about the lack of food in King's Landing.

"Pass down the order. Anyone who can break through the Southern Army's defense line will be awarded three ranks of military merit, and whoever captures the enemy's flag will be made an earl! Whoever can kill Caesar can marry Princess Myrcella Baratheon!"

Lord Tywin's words made everyone's hearts tremble, and they all immediately realized the determination of the King's Hand.

"The battle supervisor ranks behind the formation," Duke Tywin continued, "Anyone who dares to flee before the battle, beheaded!"
