Chapter 332 Steel-armored giant dragon, the whole army attacks!
Under the blue sky.

Seabirds fly in the sky.

The light waves continue to hit the coastline, and there are snow-white waves.

In the warm sunshine of early spring.

The temperature keeps getting warmer.

The mouth of the Worm River, in front of the huge port wharf.

The number of ships coming and going is increasing day by day.

On the pier, there is the sound of bargaining, noise, disputes, and bustle.

The winter snow has just melted.

The port of Astapor has quickly become busy.

"Roar"

Suddenly, a shocking roar came from the distant sky.

this moment.

The locals are fine.

All the tourists and merchants who had just arrived in Astapor immediately changed their expressions, subconsciously looking up at the sky.

I saw a huge black and red figure with wings flying high in the sky in the distance.

"Look, look at the sky"

"My God, what kind of monster is that?"

"Monster? No, that's the dragon of our Lord Governor, haven't you heard of it?"

"My God, it must be a dragon, the rumors are actually true."

"Look at that figure, those wings, I can still see dragons in my lifetime"

"Am I dreaming"

"Mom, look quickly, there are dragons in the sky, and everything written in the book is true, so there really are dragons."

"Is that a dragon?"

"."

All the tourists and merchants who had just arrived in Astapor shouted and talked a lot as they watched the black shadow that was quickly disappearing in the sky.

The local residents are much calmer.

Hearing the roar of the dragon is just a habitual glance, and then what to do.

Of course, watching those bumpkins who have never seen a dragon yelling is really cool, it just feels superior.

Since changing the governor.

Astapor is getting more and more merchants and tourists.

It's hard to say that there is no credit for the dragon of the governor.

city ​​centre.

Governor's residence.

In the study on the second floor.

Morgan, who was wearing a delicate blue robe, was sitting at the desk, looking at the two pale yellow letters in his hand.

a while.

Tuck the letter into the thick 'Westeros Summary' book to the side.

Morgan got up and walked to the window of the study, looking at the crowds on the street in the distance outside, a little dazed.

For more than half a year.

The continent of Westeros is constantly at war.

Especially because Robb Stark, whose father Ed Stark was killed, marched south and fought several battles with the Lannister army representing the Iron Throne.

Although both parties have their own winners and losers.

However, the Robb Stark side of the "King of the North" has obviously won more times, and the results are greater. Even the newly appointed captain of the Kingsguard "James Lannister" was also defeated by Robb Stark. The Stark side is captured.

But just when Robb Stark's army seemed to have the upper hand.

Located in the West Sea of ​​Westeros, Balon Greyjoy, the "King of the Iron Islands", sensed that the opportunity was coming, and brazenly sent troops south to attack the northern border.

And in a very short period of time, they captured the towns of Calim Bay, Deepwood Castle, Stony Coast, Torun Square City and so on.

In the end, even "Winterfell", known as the capital of the North, was captured under the sneak attack of "Traitor" Theon Greyjoy.

This is news from Westeros more than three months ago.

When Morgan heard the news, he recalled the emaciated and proud young man he saw in Winterfell in his mind.

Because of his personality, he didn't have much communication with that Theon Greyjoy when he was in Winterfell, and he couldn't even talk about understanding him.

But Morgan knew that although the other party had been detained in Winterfell since childhood.

But Eddard Stark treated Theon Greyjoy as an adopted son, and did not treat him differently or be indifferent because of his status.

And when Ed Stark was killed and the situation in the North was in dire need of help.

Not only did Theon Greyjoy not be grateful for the help, but instead led the army to attack Winterfell, Morgan shook his head when he heard the news.

That's really a white-eyed wolf.

Of course, it doesn't matter that Morgan has a bad impression of Theon Greyjoy.

Except for the fall of the northern border.

And the "King of Dragonstone" Stannis Baratheon led his troops to Storm's End and began to attack his brother "King of Storm's End" Renly Baratheon.

There is still no trace of his student Arya Stark that Morgan specifically explained.

Jon Snow also has no news.

However, King's Landing City received news of the resurrection of the dead from the Great Wall of Despair in the north.

The news made Morgan somewhat silent.

Because of his memory, he certainly knew that there were strange ghosts in this world.

There is news of the resurrection of the dead.

This means that the White Walkers in the North are starting to move.

Five kings fight.

Coupled with the invasion of aliens on the Great Wall of the North.

The continent of Westeros is indeed in chaos at this time.

In addition to the above news.

Morgan just received a piece of heavy news from Westeros this morning.

Renly Baratheon, the "King of Storm's End" who was fighting his brother Stannis Baratheon in Storm's End was assassinated.

A large number of Lords of the Stormland under Renly Baratheon's command and many Lords of the Reach turned to Stannis Baratheon and surrendered.

in this way.

Originally supported by the Stormlands and the Reach, Margaery Tyrell, the "Rose of Highgarden", was also won. Known as the most powerful King of Storm's End among the "Five Kings", the curtain came to an end.

"King of Dragonstone Island" Stannis Baratheon's strength has greatly increased.

But Westeros is still too far away from Astapor for the time being.

Morgan simply expressed concern.

But Daenerys Targaryen, who was expelled by him, settled in the largest slave city "Meereen" more than half a year ago and started to make trouble.

Morgan couldn't sit still.

As the largest and richest city among the three slave cities in Slaver's Bay, Meereen has long been regarded as his possession.

Half a year ago.

After learning that Daenerys Targaryen went ashore in Meereen.

Morgan increased his acquisition of news from Meereen.

That Daenerys is indeed worthy of the aura of the protagonist, and is called the son of the plane.

It was pretty decent a few months ago.

But in the past two months, the other party seems to have joined a mercenary group, with four to five hundred people gathered under its command.

The news reached Morgan's ears last night.

He has a certain understanding of that Daenerys Targaryen.

Since the opponent has gathered troops under his command, she will definitely choose to make trouble in Meereen.

"Roar"

at this time.

The shocking roar in the sky resounded over Astapor again.

Morgan came back to his senses and looked up at the huge figure of Siglia who was flying freely in the sky.

Then he turned around and walked out.

"Owner."

As soon as the study door was opened and guarded outside the study, one of the tall personal maids, "Carol", who was wearing a pale yellow exquisite maid outfit, immediately spoke.

Morgan nodded, looked at another maid and said, "Tess, go tell Black Rat that I'm going to the military factory."

"Yes, Master."

The maid named Tess walked quickly downstairs.

Morgan strode toward his bedroom.

Carol immediately followed behind.

Go back to the master bedroom.

Morgan just raised his hand.

Carol immediately stepped forward to change the clothes for the master.

Take off the robe and put on tight clothes again.

Soon, under the service of the personal maid Carol.

When Morgan, who was dressed up, came to the castle on the first floor.

The commander of the Unsullied, Black Rat, had already brought a few Unsullied soldiers and was waiting in front of the prepared carriage.

They boarded the carriage under the crowd.

Morgan led Black Rat and the Unsullied straight to the street behind Astapor.

After half an hour.

The carriage drove through an empty street guarded by heavily armed Unsullied warriors.

Go straight along the street.

It didn't take long.

The carriage came to the end of the street.

In front of the end, a red fire was shining in a spacious passage leading to the ground.

Get off the carriage.

Morgan led the commander Black Rat all the way down the heavily guarded passage.

Soon, a huge underground factory appeared in front of Morgan.

Flaming torches light up the underground space.

A large number of shirtless slaves wearing only shorts and still sweating profusely ran up and down.

The sound of ping-pong-pong metal impact and knocking sounded continuously.

flaming magma
Much hotter than the hot weather outside.

It used to be the military factory of the great slave owners of Astapor, but now it naturally belongs to Morgan.

"Owner."

"Owner."

At this time, a tall young man led several people to meet him quickly.

The leader is the commander of the Unsullied First Party, who is in charge of the military factory, "Cockroach" and several military factory subordinates under his command.

"How's the armor forging going?"

Morgan asked.

What he asked was naturally not the armor worn by ordinary soldiers.

Such a trivial matter is not worth asking him personally.

Morgan was asking about the dragon armor worn by his beloved dragon, Siglia.

Yes, he had made up his mind to attack Yunkai.

With Daenerys Targaryen's dragon being shot and killed by a giant crossbow in his mind, he was not prepared to risk his naked Siglia.

Armor Siglia.

This is an idea and plan he had long ago.

"Reporting to the master, most of the work has been completed. According to Master Clive, it will take about four days at most, and all forging should be completed."

The cockroach spoke immediately.

"Take me to see"

Morgan nodded.

"Master, please follow me."

The cockroach immediately led the way as he said that.

The scale of the entire military factory is not small.

Speaking of which, the three slave cities of Slave Bay.

That is to say, Astapor has a military factory that can forge weapons and armor equipment in large quantities.

The reason is naturally that the fame of the Unsullied slave warriors has spread throughout the world.

In order to provide a large number of weapons and equipment to the Unsullied fighters, the military factory came into being.

As for the sister city of Yunkai, the defense was largely based on an army of untrained slaves and hired mercenaries.

And Meereen, because the city is bigger and richer, the great slave masters who ruled Meereen established a regiment of spearmen with extremely luxurious equipment, as well as more slave armies.

Fortunately, Morgan occupied Astapor.

Otherwise, it would be really difficult for him to forge suitable armor for Siglia, who was already six or seven meters long at this time.

Not just because forged armor is too big.

It is also because of the complexity of forging the armor worn by the giant dragon.

Before that, no one thought of putting armor on the dragon or anything.

There is no precedent at all.

Fortunately, in the film and television plot deep in Morgan's memory, he seems to have seen similar situations.

Only with a certain direction can we discuss and negotiate with the chief equipment forging master in the military factory for a long time. For this reason, Morgan made gestures on Siglia several times before giving Siglia the shape and structure of the armor.

It has been more than a month since the day of forging.

Commander Cockroach took Morgan all the way to the busy forging platform flowing with fiery red lava.

At this time, an old man with white hair and a bald Mediterranean style wearing wet short sleeves immediately greeted Morgan when he saw Morgan.

This Mediterranean old man is naturally Clive, the chief equipment forging master of this military factory.

After a few simple conversations.

Mediterranean Clive brought Morgan to the last largest forging platform.

This forging platform was specially built to forge armor for the dragon Siglia.

Soon, under Clive's command.

The slaves brought several large pieces of steel armor of different shapes.

For example, the largest single piece of thick steel armor with a length of more than one meter and a wide, sharp hook on the forging platform.

This is the armor worn on Siglia's belly.

The armor with the largest number of semicircles is the armor equipped on Siglia's neck.

The abdomen and neck of the dragon are the most fatal positions and the most vulnerable positions.

The armor designed by Morgan and the Mediterranean blacksmith is also specially designed to protect these two positions.

The abdomen is defended with pieces of large steel armor.

However, because Siglia is too big, when the armor is equipped, the whole piece of sharp hook-shaped steel armor needs to be burned red, and then forcibly embedded into Siglia's abdomen.

This kind of equipment method is a bit cruel, but it is to better protect Siglia.

Neither can Morgan.

However, Siglia's skin is rough and fleshy, and it is protected by strong cuticle scales, so it is not a big problem.

And at the neck, it is tightly wrapped with a series of semicircular armors.

Compared with the red brand embedded in the abdomen, the armor on the neck is much easier to equip.

Of course, Sigiriya grew up fast.

In less than a year, it skyrocketed to a length of six or seven meters.

This forged armor tube won't take too long.

However, with the experience of forging armor for the first time, it will be much easier to forge later, just enlarge the proportion of the current armor.

Looking at the blue-black steel armor on the forging platform.

Morgan reached out and touched it, then tapped again.

After obtaining the completion time of the dragon armor from the mouth of the chief Mediterranean forging master Clive.

Only then did he leave the military factory with the captain, Black Rat.

The completion time of Siglia's armor has been fixed.

Then the grand plan of going to Yunkai began to be put on the daily routine.

this afternoon.

Morgan held a pre-war meeting inside the castle.

Missandei, the Grand Secretary, Afra, the Chief of the Governor's Mansion, the fourteen Unsullied Commanders, Barristan, the Commander of the New Army, and several senior officials of the city hall attended the meeting.

The meeting is for discussion. No, it's not a discussion. It's an order.
Morgan is giving the task orders for the personnel responsible for this expedition to Yunkai.

The meeting begins.

Morgan took the lead in reversing one of his previous plans, which was to abandon Astapor when he went to Yunkai, and at the same time loot the remaining slave owners in Astapor.

He's not going to do that now.

He estimated that the melee in Westeros would not stop for a while.

And Siglia will still need some time to continue to grow.

And taking Yunkai and Meereen will take time;
It will also take time to collect the wealth of these two cities and prepare a large number of warships for Westeros.

Astapor is well ruled by him, and the military factory is not insignificant.

Therefore, he would not consider abandoning Astapor before he conquered Slaver's Bay and left the Essos continent.

Astapor was just right as the rear of his army at this time.

This meeting decided the army to go out; it also decided the army personnel to stay in Astapor.

A time was fixed for the battle against Yunkai: ten days later.

The first day of the conference ends.

The city hall, the military factory, and most importantly the Unsullied Legion, as well as Barristan's preparations for the new army were all officially mobilized.

The wheels of war began to roll.

The whole of Astapor was filled with silent smoke.

Four days after the meeting.

Siglia's armor was completed on schedule.

Under Morgan's appeasement.

On the fifth day, Siglia became stronger and finished wearing the armor, becoming the first dragon in the entire continent of Westeros to put on steel armor.

Eighth day of the meeting.

All armies are ready.

Tenth day of the meeting.

Army attack!
