Game of Thrones: The Strongest Dragon Mother

Chapter 861 The Fate of King's Landing City

Because of the siphon effect of the capital, cities close to the capital will not be too large.

In the world of A Song of Ice and Fire, this rule also applies.

The city of Rosby is just [-] kilometers north of King's Landing. The city is very small, without a bustling commercial district or tall and magnificent buildings.Except for the castle of the Rosby family, there are wooden and mud huts everywhere.

Wealthy merchants, distinguished lords, and even the Earl of Rosby himself live next door in King's Landing.

But Rossby is very rich. In other words, the long and narrow land where the king's territory is located is either close to the bay or located in the Blackwater River basin, all of which are fertile and rich in products.

In the War of the Four Kings, the food provided by Rosby and Fort Stokeworth (the territory of Bronn) alone can meet half of the needs of King's Landing.

Also because of the dedication to the Iron Throne in the Battle of the Four Kings, the city of Rosby can't even support Erlu's [-] Valley Army now.

On this day, under the dark sky, a pterosaur flew from the east and landed on the spacious school grounds in front of Rosby Castle.

There were quite a few people on the school field, but no one paid any attention to the old knight who came down from the back of the pterosaur.

Hundreds of people gathered in a circle, performing a certain ceremony.

Davos was the Hand of the King, and as he approached, those in front consciously moved out of the way for him.

After a while, the Onion Knight squeezed to the front. Near the central wood pile, he saw the king with a face as cold as iron, the graceful red-robed woman, and the eight knights tied to the stakes desperately begging for forgiveness and mercy. .

"What's going on?" Davos found his son Stannis.

Well, not the second deer, but the sixth son of Davos.

The Onion Knight had seven sons, the first four died in the Battle of the Blackwater River, and were indirectly destroyed by the dwarves.

The fifth child, Dai Feng, is 15 years old and was originally serving as a servant for Erlu.But one day, the Onion Knight noticed how the fifth child looked at Melisandre.

Those are the eyes of a man looking at a woman, full of strong desire and inextricable love.

Later, he asked someone quietly, and found out that when Erlu left the Great Wall to go to Winterfell, he did not take Davon with him, because Melisandre offered to keep the knight attendants by his side.

Actually, this is a misunderstanding.

Although Melisandre knew that the Onion Knight didn't like her, she respected him very much.

The reason why Dai Feng stayed was not the "loneliness in the boudoir" that Davos was worried about, but because the red-robed girl knew that Erlu's trip was dangerous, and Dai Feng would probably never return if she went with her.

She sympathized with the onion knight's death of four children in the Blackwater River, and only wanted to save Devan.

She understood Dafeng's love for her and was happy about it, but she didn't attack him.

Davos didn't know the twists and turns, so he left Davan in the Cape Wrath rainforest on the pretext of being away from home for several years and returning home to visit his mother.

Out of his loyalty to Erlu, he brought the 13-year-old Liu over to serve Erlu.

The sixth child is named Stannis, and the 10-year-old seventh child is named Stephen (the name of Erlu Daddy).

"They are Braavos mercenaries. They violated His Majesty's military order. Not only did they leave the garrison area without permission, but they also robbed a 14-year-old peasant girl from a village three miles away, and took her away."

Little Stannis's childish face was full of indignation, and the way he looked at the mercenaries on the pillars was filled with a kind of fanaticism that shocked Davos.

The child came to His Majesty's side for a few days, and he began to look forward to seeing the fire!

Davos thought worriedly.

Erlu stood quietly in front of the pillar, and only turned back after listening to the pleas of every prisoner.

His gaze first swept over the short and sturdy Sir Song Ge and the scar-faced Sir Richard, and without the slightest hesitation, he continued to look back.

"Axel, are you okay?"

"Your Majesty, your belief is what I serve." A simple and honest middle-aged man with protruding ears said in a deep voice.

"Then let's start." Erlu sighed softly.

In the past, the people who led the flaming red heart knight to hold the sacrificial ceremony were Gordy Farling and Richard. After Gordy was slapped to death by the sword of the Great Jon, Sir Song Ge took over.

Although Richard is still wearing the cloak of flaming red hearts, there is a shining white seven-pointed star on his chest.

Even though Song Ge's whole body was dressed the same as before, he died once, and his soul did not report to the Lord of Light, but was revived by the Dragon Queen instead.

What does it say?

Song Ge also lost faith in R'hllor.

People without faith cannot lead believers to sacrifice.

And Yasser Florent is a speculator, and he converted to the Lord of Light more to please the king and queen, so as to gain power, and his beliefs are not as pure as Gaudí and Richard before.

"Lord of Light, listen to us!" Yasser shouted.

"King of Light, protect us." The followers of the Red God chanted together, "Because the night is long and there are dangers everywhere."

Sir Axel looked up at the dark sky and shouted: "O God, please restore the light of the sky, please lead us to drive straight in, and wipe out the enemies. Please drive us away from the dark clouds, so that we can enjoy the clear light of the stars again. "

Believers pray: "Lord of Light, protect us and drive away the merciless darkness."

Melisandre gave a look, the firewood around the eight stakes burst into flames, and the sacrifice began howling and cursing.

"R'hllor," Sir Axell raised his voice, "we offer eight sinners. Pure and true, to Allah. With their blood, a sacrifice. With God's help, we swear to destroy the enemy! Please accept this sacrifice Goods, lead us to King's Landing to purge heretics!"

"Lord of Light, accept the sacrifice." Hundreds of voices shouted at the same time.

The flames greedily licked the skin and hair of the sacrifices, and their pleadings turned into a high-pitched moan of incomprehensibility.

Once the sacrifice was over, Davos was eager to find Stannis.

"Your Majesty, you want to storm King's Landing? This is different from our previous plan!" he asked uneasily.

"I don't want to wait any longer. The people of King's Landing may not have food to eat, but the Red Castle must have a lot of food in reserve. Your strategy of besieging the city and cutting out food won't work.

I will attack the city as long as the food from the Vale and Dragonstone arrives. ' said Stannis softly.

If the pterodactyl is used to throw wildfire bombs recklessly, the onion knight can break through King's Landing before Erlu returns from Winterfell.

But he didn't do that.

Not only the tens of thousands of troops from the Iron Throne, but also the sparrows who believe in the Seven Gods are all blocking Erlu from entering King's Landing.

After repeated battles, the king's land and Hejian withered, and the people in the two population-rich areas were all transferred to King's Landing, and all of them joined the church's assembly for the poor.

At this time, their whole body is clean and smooth, and there is nothing but faith.

Unless Erlu can solve the livelihood problems of those people, allowing them to resume production and work, and to work and eat, it is inevitable to resist the King of the Red God.

When King Aegon's alliance of true dragons besieged King, King Aegon's only enemy was the Iron Throne, and the people and the church just waited and watched numbly.

Facing the Erlu army attacking King's Landing, hundreds of thousands of sparrows in King's Landing were excited.

They took wooden sticks, bricks and rusty kitchen knives, climbed up the city wall, and even poured out of the city gate, shouting the slogan "Long live the seven gods, for the Holy Mother", and wanted to use their flesh and blood to attack the valley army that attacked the city .

The princes of the valley first shrank.

They also believed in the Seven Gods, and they took refuge in Erlu only out of political needs.There is no loyalty at all, and it is impossible for them to slaughter the followers of the Seven Gods for Erlu.

The last person who slaughtered church believers was Maegor in the founding period.

But what happened to Maegor?

Maegor and dragons, Balerion!

Cersei is such a crazy person, she only dares to whisper-Miyin Shida-Sparrow.

In addition to the sparrows, the countless old, young, sick and weak refugees crowded under the city wall are also a big problem.

King's Landing is full of people at this time, crowded with people, if the city is burned with kerosene bombs, it will inevitably affect a large number of innocent people.Even if Davos dared to learn from Maegor Slaughter Church's armed forces, he couldn't bear to attack ordinary people.

Therefore, he only blocked the land passage between King's Landing and High Court, blocked the sea passage of Black Water Bay, cut off the import of food into the city, forced the hungry people in King's Landing to open the city and surrender, and then used food to appease the believers and people who fainted from starvation.

"Your Majesty, if you burn King's Landing and slaughter the people, the lords of the Vale will no longer serve you.

The mercenaries hired from Braavos were not trustworthy at all, and they even wanted to rescind their employment contracts and flee back to Braavos, where there were no White Walkers.

At that time, even if the gate of King's Landing is open, how can you occupy King's Landing without soldiers?And how to rule the country? "Davos persuaded.

Not having a basic market is indeed one of the dilemmas Erlu is facing at this time.

As the Duke of Dragonstone Island with a small territory, he didn't have many confidants in the first place.After wandering around the northern border, and losing Storm's End and Dragonstone Island, he became completely alone, with only a few hundred Flaming Heart Knights left by his side.

The Braavosi mercenaries, the two thousand cavalry in the north, and the princes of the valley may seem powerful, but they cannot be relied on as a foundation.

In the past, Erlu should have clenched his jaw and gritted his teeth.

But now he was pale and pale, not like a living person. There was not even a trace of emotion on his shriveled cheeks, but he said indifferently: "Davos, I have no time to delay. It is long night now, and the White Walkers are infiltrating the Neck, going south to the river. When If you don’t stop, you will suffer from chaos.”

Davos sighed helplessly, "How to deal with the assembly of the poor and the refugees?"

Erlu's deep-set eye sockets flashed a gloomy light, and said: "As long as they can temporarily fill the stomachs of the common people, they don't care whether an angel or a devil sits on the Iron Throne.

They loved Margaery, who murdered her husband, and called her 'Magaery,' because Highgarden brought them bread and cheese.

They accepted the rule of Tommen the Wild and Cersei the Street Sinner because the food from Highgarden kept them alive. "

"I believe in the Red God, but Euron is a pious believer of the Seven Gods?" Erlu patted the king's hand on the shoulder and said indifferently: "The common people are much easier to deal with than the nobles. As long as they can't starve to death, they are The most honest obedient people.

The desires of nobles are endless, and it seems that they will never be satisfied unless they sit on the Iron Throne.Like, that woman, that dwarf.Are you done? "

"Tyrion rejects the proposal to divide the river in two" Davos said all the contents of this afternoon's negotiations.

"Daenerys can give up the Iron Throne, but she claims to inherit the lands of the Targaryen ancestors, that is, the kingdom.

If the new king is unwilling to move away from King's Landing, he can also use other lands close to Dragonstone Island as compensation, such as the Three Rivers Valley. "

"Targaryen is just an outsider, so there is no inherent fiefdom." Erlu said coldly.

"Your Majesty, with all due respect, your ancestor Orys Baratheon was with Aegon the Conqueror." Davos said awkwardly.

They are all foreign robbers.
