Dominate the Game of Thrones with Mount and Blade
#88 - Rise to fame
Chapter 88 Rising Fame
Raymond, the head of the Darry family, was the oldest and was obviously the backbone of the group. After thinking for a moment, he replied:
"We have fifty-three cavalrymen and a dozen servants. The Mountain has gone north, and there is no danger in King's Landing. All the cavalrymen are given to you. We just need to take the servants and witnesses to see the king."
"Yes, now only the brave Arthur can tie with the Mountain, give him all the cavalrymen." The straightforward Marco shouted.
This earned Arthur his second title "Brave".
"Also, this is an order issued by Duke Hoster." Raymond took out a roll of sheepskin with the common language written on it and the trout seal of the Tully family printed on it.
"With it, you can get the help you want from any noble, village, or town in the Riverlands."
"Yes, give it to him." Ma Ke patted Arthur on the shoulder, "The important task of chasing the Mountain is left to you."
Kalel also said: "You are the only one who can fight the Mountain, and the rest of the Riverlands can't."
Arthur took the parchment and carefully read the common language on it. He found that it only asked the Riverlands to provide help, but did not say what to help for.
This is a good thing, which will be of great use after the war begins.
Arthur accepted it with peace of mind.
"My lords, there is one more thing." The leader of the Blood Opera Troupe, Wager, squeezed next to a few people and rubbed his right index finger and thumb. "My backbone died... Twenty-seven of them died. Shouldn't I give the remaining gold dragons?"
When it comes to gold dragons, Wager's speech is much smoother.
According to the agreement, each person will receive twenty gold dragons, which includes compensation for death in battle.
Arthur had previously given Wag a deposit of 565 gold royals, and the remaining three-quarters would theoretically be paid after the mission was completed.
But since someone had died, it was reasonable to pay in advance.
"Twenty-seven people, 15 gold royals each, that's more than 400." Arthur muttered.
"Four hundred and five, my lord." Wag smiled as soon as he heard the money.
This made his wrinkled old face come alive.
"You are so optimistic. You are not in a hurry even though so many of your men died." Raymond next to him sighed.
"If they die, the money will be mine, of course I am happy, my lord." Wag explained.
"I only have more than 20 gold royals on me. Do you have any money? Lend it to me first and pay Mr. Wag."
Arthur took out his small purse from under his plate armor, but only found some. He put the rest of the money in a cowhide bag and followed the caravan to the Moulin Rouge.
Marco, Raymond and others also took out money, but only collected more than 200 gold royals.
Wager was visibly unhappy, but he quickly adjusted himself. The financier in front of him won 60,000 gold dragons in the tournament, so he still had money, and he could get it by following him.
Arthur looked at the mercenary leader who was not sad for the death of his men, and suddenly remembered something.
He was a Kohor from the free trade city-state of Essos, where mercenaries were very popular, and he thought he could recruit more Essos mercenaries through him.
Arthur told him about this idea.
Wager immediately patted his chest and guaranteed, "No problem, I can recruit, recruit more mercenaries... As long as there are enough gold dragons..."
The backbone who translated Wager's meaning also died in battle, which made Arthur have to listen to the stuttering words of the leader all the time.
Wager meant that he had his own way to get people, but he had to send someone to the east of Essos.
Arthur agreed, so one of the four remaining people around Wager was sent to do this.
This person will go south to King's Landing with Ma Ke, Raymond and others, and then take a boat across the Narrow Sea to recruit people in Essos.
In one to two months, at least two hundred mercenaries will follow, said Wager.
Raymond, Ma Ke and others also have to take the witnesses to King's Landing, so they picked two villagers who speak fluently from the village of Sheer to add to the witnesses.
After several people said goodbye to Arthur, they got on their horses and left with their men.
And Ange, Wager and others have to rest in the village of Sheer for half a day before they can set out to chase the Mountain.
After all, these warriors don't have abnormal physical fitness like Arthur.
[Task: Complete the rescue of Sheer Village, experience plus 500, the favorability of all villages in the riverland plus 5, and the favorability of Sheer Village plus 30]
Arthur looked at the sentence "the favorability of all villages in the riverland plus 5" on the blue light screen, and suddenly had a strange feeling.
It was the kind of surprise that was not expected but came unexpectedly.
Mission experience, combat experience, and troop training experience allowed him to successfully reach level seven.
[Baron: Arthur Bracken]
[Level: 7]
[Experience: 6107/10000]
[Strength: 19]
[Agility: 12]
[Intelligence: 7]
[Charm: 9]
[Skills: Iron Bone 5, Strong Attack 8, Strong Throw 1, Strong Bow 1, Weapon Mastery 2, Shield Defense 1, Running 2, Riding 5, Horse Archery 0, Looting 0, Coach 0, Tracking 0, Tactics 1, Guide 0, Scouting 0, Healing 0, Surgery 0, First Aid 0, Engineering 0, Persuasion 1, Prisoner Management 1, Command 3, Trading 0]
[Weapon Proficiency: One-handed Weapons 74, Two-handed Weapons 125, Pole Weapons 97, Bows and Arrows 31, Crossbows 31, Throwing 31]
Attribute points should still be added to strength. Strength is essential when fighting against the full-level strength of the Mountain Man.
One skill point is to strengthen attack and the other is to add Iron Bone. These two can make Arthur's attacks more penetrating and strengthen his defense.
Weapon points were added to long-pole weapons. In the future, we will have to use Guandao more in the battle.
The lord of Darry City and the heirs of Pink City and Traveler's Rest City left, but Arthur still had to clean up the battlefield.
He called the old village chief of Sher Village and ordered: "Take off the armor of all the dead, and then send a caravan to my territory. The Red Mill is in the middle of the Red Fork River. There should be a lot of people there now. You can find out with a little inquiry."
The Mountain's side left more than 80 corpses, and Arthur's side lost more than 30 people, which means more than 100 weapons and armor.
Can't waste it here.
Arthur thought of the Mountain's three layers of armor, so he asked the old man to watch him strip a larger chain mail.
A real man wears two layers of armor.
He couldn't fit more into his plate armor.
"Okay, my Lord, you are our God now, we will do whatever you ask us to do."
The old man agreed happily, and then shouted to the villagers to come out to entertain Arthur's ten people and fifty-three cavalrymen.
The rain had stopped long ago, so everyone had a very sumptuous meal in the open space in the center of the village of Sher.
From roasted tender lamb, stewed chicken to roast goose, all kinds of meat that can be taken out in this village were taken out, and there was plenty of beer, bread and fruits.
After eating and drinking, Arthur put on the chain mail that was picked and put on the plate armor again.
Then he called the village chief and carefully instructed:
"Duke Tywin is preparing to attack the riverlands, and this place will not be safe in the future. After we leave, you will immediately organize the villagers of Sher to go north, take all the food, clothes and money, and take refuge in my territory. I swear, I will protect you."
The old man nodded and accepted it all silently.
Rumors that the Lannisters were preparing to start a war were flying everywhere, and all the farms in the riverlands were in a panic.
The farmers in the territory of the Harrenhal family were even worse. Their lords were weak and could not stop the army of Lord Tywin.
Now there was a nobleman with superior military power who promised to protect them. How could he, the village chief, let the opportunity slip away?
"By the way, will you take in the villagers from the nearby villages? They will also..." the old man asked tentatively.
"Take in, take in everyone. As long as they come to my territory, I will definitely protect them."
This was Arthur's answer.
The old man was ecstatic. The relationship between Shiel Village and the neighboring villages was also good. He sent someone to inform the neighbors.
After a good rest, Arthur set off with four core members of the Blood Troupe including Varg, five Dornishmen including Anguy, fifty-three cavalrymen from Pink City, Darry City, and Traveler's Rest, and the red horse that was previously fostered here.
Their target was the Mountain and the Westerland soldiers who were still on the run.
It is estimated that more than 50 people have escaped from the Mountain's side. The two sides are now one-to-one in strength. If they are caught, they will not be able to escape.
...
A few days later, the legend of Arthur Bracken began to spread throughout the east side of the God's Eye Lake.
The evil Mountain burned, killed, looted, and brought disaster to the world. Fortunately, the gods in the sky sent the "righteous" Arthur to punish Clegane.
Whenever the Mountain led his army to burn the village, Arthur, who was carrying a golden sword, holding a sword in his left hand and a hammer in his right hand, would appear with his men.
He arrived to rescue just before the Mountain broke through the village.
So the Mountain and his men, who had worked for half a day and were tired and hungry, were expelled, while Arthur, who was carrying the parchment order of the River Guardian Horst, was entertained by various villages and only pursued the next time after eating and drinking.
Most of the rescued villages also followed Arthur's advice, packed up food and daily necessities, and went north with their families to avoid the war.
At this time, Arthur, the "righteous" in the mouths of the 30,000 or 40,000 peasants on the east side of the God's Eye Lake, was running to Harrenhal with more than 30 of his men.
In the past few days, they had fought more than a dozen small-scale battles with the Mountain.
Since Arthur also wore two layers of armor, the leaders of both sides fought against each other, and then scraped for a long time, but no one could break the defense of the other.
The remaining Westerland soldiers and Rivermen, Blood Troupe, and Dornishmen fought together.
When the Mountain felt that his physical strength was declining, he ordered a retreat.
Arthur felt that without the giant hammer, he really had no way to deal with the three-layer armored war god, the Mountain, so he let them slip away.
So the two sides fought for five or six days, and each of them died nearly 30 people.
At present, Arthur brought his soldiers to the territory of the Hean family to appease Lady Hean.
If Lady Hean did not escape later, Arthur could lead his army to the largest castle in the Seven Kingdoms in the name of rescue.
And only a few thousand militiamen and a few hundred veterans are enough to defend Harrenhal.
At that time, Tywin will lead 20,000 troops to confront him near Harrenhal.
The situation in the early stage of the War of the Five Kings will change greatly.
