Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory

For people on the continent of Westeros, the enthronement of Lynd Terra, chosen by the Seven Gods, as the ruler of the Seven Kingdoms means that the war will subside and all order will be restored. Everyone is happy to see the establishment of the Terra Dynasty. .

Even the lords of the valley went to King's Landing to meet the new king and express their submission after the announcement was issued.

The siege of the Eyrie in the Vale was also resolved on the fourth day after Lind's announcement of the throne, because Lysa Tully was captured by her suitors, and all the levels leading to the Eyrie were abandoned. After resisting, the coalition of valley lords led by Bronze Yohn Royce went straight into the Eyrie.

The main reason for such a change is that immediately after the announcement of Lind's accession to the throne, he sent an open letter to the Eyrie. The content was the same as the original order issued by Lord Tywin, which was to order Lysa Tully to leave the Eyrie. City, go to Riverrun to seal the deal, and Robert Arryn is handed over to the bronze Yohn Royce to raise him until he comes of age and succeeds to the title of Duke of the Eyrie and the position of Warden of the East.

Although the two orders are the same, the effects of different issuers are naturally different. The people in the Eyrie City do not care about Tywin's order because they know that Tywin cannot capture the Eyrie City, but Linde is different. Linde has There were two giant dragons, and Linde's status as Chosen God had a very high reputation and status in the Valley, an area with the strongest belief in the Seven Gods. Therefore, when his order was issued, he originally supported Lysa. ·Tully and those who hoped to gain status by marrying Lysa Tully all rebelled. The devout followers of the Seven Gods among the guards in the United City suddenly attacked and captured the Eyrie in one fell swoop, ending the confrontation between the lords within the valley. .

Almost when Yohn Royce entered the Eyrie, took away Robert Arryn, and sent people to escort the half-mad Lysa Tully to Riverrun, the Chosen God who had rich combat experience against the wildling tribes The Son Corps entered the Mingyue Mountains and began to annihilate the large and small savage tribes that had previously caused the savage rebellion in the valley.

The vast majority of the Sons of God Corps sent this time are from the savage tribes in the Crimson Mountains. They are familiar with the savage tribes' various living habits, fighting methods, etc., and have sophisticated weapons and equipment.

The savage tribes in the Mingyue Mountains experienced the Savage Rebellion. Although they gained a lot of property, the warriors in the tribes lost a lot, and their strength fell to the bottom.

Facing the encirclement and suppression by the Chosen Son of God, the savage tribes had no resistance. In less than a month, they were wiped out like a ragtag beast. All the savage tribes were dispersed and distributed to various places, and were handed over to local officials for domestication. This is something that Linde's people are already familiar with.

During this process, many territorial lords in the valley who were harmed by the Savage Rebellion also joined in the encirclement and suppression. In the process, they saw the power of the Sons of God Corps, and they all hoped that Linde could select the Sons of God Corps from the valley. Warriors, because for them, the devout believers of the Seven Gods, becoming the chosen son of the gods is the best reward for their faith.

While the savage tribes were being wiped out in the valley, the Northern Territory, the Riverlands, the West and other places also began to clear out the local savage tribes. Like the valley, they all had the Chosen Sons as the main force, and the troops of other lords as assistance, launching a wave of Wave cleared.

In the past many years, it has always been a mystery how powerful Linde's exclusive weapon, the Son of God's Chosen, is, because the Son of God's Chosen has participated in too few battles. Everyone just knows that the Son of God's Chosen has the best Weapons and equipment, sufficient warriors, and a standing army, other than that, no one knows their specific situation.

And this time after Linde ascended the throne, the military operations against the entire Seven Kingdoms allowed the lords and nobles of the Seven Kingdoms to see the fangs of the Chosen Son for the first time, and in their eyes, the Chosen Son was powerful enough to sweep across the entire Seven Kingdoms. A large kingdom, which also made their awe of Linde even deeper.

As for the forces outside Westeros, or outside Lind's control, it is definitely not a good thing for Lind to become the lord of the Iron Throne and the ruler of the Seven Kingdoms, because as long as someone with a slightly more flexible mind Everyone can see that after Linde stabilizes the situation in the seven countries, the next step is probably to complete the unification of the Free Trade City-States, because only in this way can Linde be able to build a huge empire spanning two continents.

Now there are only two stones standing in front of this huge empire, Braavos and Volantis.

Braavos first felt something was wrong and took corresponding measures. The Sea King of Braavos first attacked Lind and asked Lind to repay all the debts owed by King Robert to the Iron Bank and at the same time tore up the miracle. The fleet cruise agreement did not allow the Miracle Fleet to enter the waters off Braavos. At the same time, it expelled the Miracle Chamber of Commerce, closed the club, and tried every means to weaken Lind's influence on Braavos.

However, Braavos has done so many things, but with little success, because the real source of Lind's influence in Braavos is actually the Temple of the Storm God.

As a maritime trading city-state, Braavos's main tax revenue and food output come mostly from maritime trade, so the entire city pays special attention to the ocean's weather, and the Storm God who can control the weather has been in trouble since the day he appeared. It has become one of the most important beliefs in Braavos.

In recent years, as Archbishop Liga of the Storm God has continued to show miracles of controlling the weather in front of people, there are also various rumors that ships with the Holy Storm emblem can turn danger into disaster when encountering extreme weather at sea, thus making In just a few years, the Storm God's faith has been on par with the Temple of the Moonsinger, and even surpassed it.

The followers of the Storm God account for a quarter of the population in Braavos. Even if other people believe in other religions, as long as they are not devout believers, most of them will wear a Storm God emblem on their bodies in order to obtain it when going to sea. bless.

Regardless of whether they believe in the Storm God or not, almost everyone in Braavos knows that the Storm God is Lind Terra, so Storm God believers are also full of worship and belief in Lind Terra.

When the Braavos Sea King began to take a series of actions against Lind, he also considered banning the Storm God's faith, but this idea could only stay in his mind and was impossible to implement, because once he banned the Storm God God's temple and its beliefs, then he will not only face the followers of the Storm God, but also the believers of other religions in Braavos will attack him, because who can know that if he solves the Storm God this time, what will happen next time? Which temple will it be?

However, what makes people feel strange is that Neptune's series of actions against Lind did not trigger any protest from the Temple of the Storm God, nor did he express dissatisfaction with this series of measures, as if what he expelled was just a small chamber of commerce, whether it was The clergy and believers in the temple all seemed very calm, and there was no sign of making trouble for Linde at all.

This series of abnormal actions made Neptune not sure how to deal with it for a while.

However, Sea King's attention soon shifted to other places, because on the third day after he expelled the Miracle Chamber of Commerce and tore up the cruise agreement, a Miracle fleet with hundreds of warships appeared in Bra The outer ring of Fos blocks the entire seaport of Braavos. Except for the original registered members of the Miracle Chamber of Commerce, all other merchant ships and fishing boats are prohibited from passing.

The Sea King of Braavos is also preparing to send Braavos' own fleet to have a decisive battle with the Miracle Fleet off the city to show that Braavos still has the strength to deal with any enemy.

Unfortunately, before the fleet ships sailed out of the city, more than a dozen leading ships were burned by wildfire cans dropped by the long-winged dragon during its flight. The unburned ship skeletons even sank directly near the entrance to the sea. , completely blocking the outlet to the sea.

At this time, the Sea King of Braavos and his staff realized that Lind had equipped many long-winged dragon knights in the Miracle Fleet. In the eyes of these dragon knights who were proficient in throwing, the ships on the sea were almost equal to A living target.

In addition, the White Harbor Fleet and the Dragonstone Fleet have also arrived in Braavos at this time and joined in the ban on Braavos. The Sea Dragon Glutton is also roaming in the outer sea, which makes the Braavos fleet It was impossible to leave the city's inner lake, and he was completely trapped in the city.

When Braavos did not want to surrender to Lind in the end, but chose to fight against Lind, Volantis, a free trade city-state that also became a stumbling block for the New Terra Empire, did not do the same thing as Braavos. move.

Not only did they not confront Lind, but they sent envoys to Winterfell to present gifts. They didn't seem to worry that Lind would do anything to them.

The situation in Braavos and Volantis was secretly recorded by people hidden in the two city-states, and divided into two parts. One part was sent to King's Landing immediately, and the other part was sent to Na Sa. in the queen's palace.

"It seems that we can't return to Westeros for the time being." In the courtyard of the Queen's Palace, Nymeria, who had just returned to Na-Sa from the front line of Slaver's Bay two days ago, handed the intelligence information she had just read to After meeting Daenerys, he said: "We are leaving for Braavos. After finishing Braavos, we will return to Westeros."

Daenerys also looked at the information and asked: "I have lived in Braavos for several years and I know the city defense system there very well. It may be difficult to attack the city from the outside. But with Viserys and the others, With help, it will be much easier for us. We can just like occupying the Port of Us, let Viserys and the others get rid of the guards on the wall, create chaos in the city, and then attack the city. "

As she said that, she looked up again and saw the three dragons flying in the sky, and said, "If Augustus and his dragons could grow as fast as Viserys and theirs, and be able to spit out stronger dragon flames, Maybe we can conquer those places faster."

Under the leadership of Nymeria, Daenerys has been constantly at war with the city-states west of Qarth during this period, and has enjoyed the joy of conquest again and again, perhaps igniting the passion in her blood that belongs to Aegon the Conqueror. Part of the conquest bloodline, even though her kindness has not changed, she has begun to enjoy the pleasure of conquest.

In addition, I don’t know if it is because the red comet has a stimulating effect on the growth of dragons. Daenerys’s three dragons grow much faster than Augustus’s five dragons.

As early as a few months ago, Daenerys's three dragons had grown to the size of a horse, their wings were spread enough to cover a roof, and the power of the dragon's flames was enough to play a key role on the battlefield.

On the other hand, the young dragon in Augustus' and his hands only grew to the size of a sheep. The dragon skin had no defensive power. Although it could spit dragon flames, it was too weak and would only become a target for the opponent's archers on the battlefield.

Nymeria seriously considered Daenerys' proposal, shook her head, and said: "No! We won't use dragons this time. Braavos has fought with the Valyrian Free Fortress before, and there must be some left to deal with. It is too dangerous to use dragons directly on the battlefield, and your dragon is still a baby dragon. The dragon flame is not particularly powerful. It may be very effective in wild battles, but it will be useless in siege battles. There's a problem."

As she spoke, Nymeria also looked at the young dragon flying in the sky, then turned to look in the direction of King's Landing, and said: "Besides, our Majesty wants a complete Braavos, Dragon Flame will Burning the city and injuring the residents of Braavos will not be conducive to future rule. If he wants to take Braavos directly by force, he can go to Braavos himself without putting in so much effort. A miraculous fleet was dispatched to block the entrance to the sea."

"Then how are we going to fight?" After all, Daenerys has little war experience. Under the leadership of Nymeria, all she had to do was order her Dothraki cavalry to charge and command the young dragons to attack the enemy's defense line. Breathing dragon flames, as for formulating a battle plan, Nymeria has always been doing it. Now it is a little difficult for her to come up with a plan on how to attack Braavos.

Nymeria turned to look at Barristan, who was standing quietly aside, and asked, "Lord Barristan, do you have any good ways to attack the city?"

After hearing this, Barristan shook his head and said: "Sorry, Your Majesty, most of my experience is on the frontal battlefield. I have no experience in attacking a large city like Braavos, so I cannot provide useful information to your Majesty." suggestions.”

Daenerys asked in confusion: "Didn't you help capture Duskendale and save my father?"

Barristan smiled and said: "How can Duskendale be compared with Braavos? It is a city that is larger than King's Landing and occupies a natural barrier around the island. If you want to capture this place, you should not only consider conquering it." The outer defense also needs to consider the battle inside the city. Just like Lord Stannis not long ago broke through the outer wall of King's Landing, but failed to consider the difficulty of attacking the Red Keep, and was eventually captured by Garlan Tyrell. Opportunity, defeated in one fell swoop.”

Daenerys frowned and said, "I also saw the detailed battle report from Nymeria about that war. I found it a bit boring. Both sides seemed to be inferior?"

Nymeria smiled and said: "You are wrong to see it this way! Dany, our previous conquest of the area west of Qarth was a special case, and Lord Stannis and Lord Tyrion's attack and defense of King's Landing That's the norm, that's the real war, a war that competes with warriors' will, command and planning, and formation of troops. Those two adults have extraordinary talents in siege and defense. If only they could be here now , maybe it can help us solve the problem of how to attack Braavos."
