Ice and Fire: Reign of the Dragon

Chapter 240 Summer Offensive

"After talking about Serena, it's time to talk about the intelligence from the east." Rey brought the topic back to the topic they are most concerned about now. As the most important thing in Westeros now, King Daeron has just succeeded to the throne. The great expedition successfully mobilized the vitality of the kingdom. The gold left by Jakaris I and Aegon II was enough to fill thirteen storehouses, providing generous support for Daeron's military adventure.

As for the prime minister of the kingdom - yes, before departure, King Daeron appointed his uncle Viserys as Hand of the King. Although Viserys strongly opposed his nephew's expedition, he still worked conscientiously to plan for his nephew after his final decision. Army and food.

This is why Daeron was relieved to pursue Robert's disintegrated army with only three hundred men and one dragon left in the burned city of Liqa Lachlon.

Sure enough, Viserys worked very meticulously and quickly. Not long after Daeron led the army, the second batch of more than 26,000 soldiers, along with a large amount of supplies, farmers, and craftsmen, arrived in Rika Lachlon. Those craftsmen, farmers, and civilians immediately began to rebuild the port city. The commanders of this army were the "Blood Lion" Count Harold Reyes of the West and the veteran "Flayed Man" Domeric Bolton of the North. Earl, this group of well-equipped infantry from the west and veterans wearing chainmail and fur cloaks from the north are one of the most powerful heavy infantry in Westeros. After a brief rest, they left three thousand soldiers to help defend. In the town, the remaining troops escorted the grain and supplies and began to chase the king.

"In the past four months, His Majesty the King has used Liqa Lachlon and the newly captured town of He Sule as strongholds to concentrate his forces to attack the so-called alliance composed of scattered sand in the disputed area."

Ringol sneered.

"It was indeed a mess. Those warlords and tyrants who claimed to be powerful were frightened after seeing Robert's fate. Their armies collapsed immediately when they saw the dragon. Some did not even need an army, just the dragon to turn around. One turn was enough. This allowed the king's army to enter the vicinity of Lake Mir in just thirteen days. The so-called 'invincible' Horus The army was burned by the giant dragon teamed up by Dan and Prince Aemon. Count Domeric and Duke Shufu completed an anvil tactic against the main force of Horus, crushing the coalition formed by the great warlord. However, Horus Si is indeed a talent. He used his underground fortress to deal with the swamps, rivers and dragons around Lake Mill, and actually maintained the defense line. "

Long Zell sighed. Indeed, giant dragons can kill soldiers and burn down castles, but a small number of giant dragons are helpless against enemies hiding in caves and underground.

According to the intelligence collected before the war, Horus is considered one of the most powerful warlords in the Disputed Lands. His deputy "Ironwall" Mortarion is a Gith slave from Slaver's Bay. He was killed by his master. He was trained as an architect, and was later sold to a controversial place. After being taken in by Horus, the architect used his talents. He presided over the construction of Horus's castle and underground fortress, and built them A large-scale defense system was built.

It was useless.

With the scale of fights involving hundreds of people common in disputed areas, such a large bunker defense system was just a decoration.

No one could have imagined that it would come in handy.

"Count Domeric and Count Benjikor led the infantry to encircle Horus's outer bunker, but after all, they are local snakes, and Count Domeric Bolton fought very cautiously. In the past four months, almost three and a half months have been Little progress has been made in gnawing at Horus's fortress."

Ringol said with emotion: "This is something that His Majesty the King did not expect. He was not prepared for the long-term consumption of that alliance, nor was he prepared for the dragon to be useless."

"He encountered something similar to what happened to Prince Daemon back then." Rey sighed. He did not personally experience Prince Daemon's conquest of the Stepstone Islands, but Longzel told him about the long-lasting war, " If Horus and Mortarion's fortresses are not dealt with quickly, and if the king cannot solve the logistical problems soon after falling into a protracted war, the expedition will be a drag on the kingdom itself."

Long Zell nodded: "This is the reason why I am reluctant to participate in this expedition. Lingol, you are my heir, and you also know some things. We must ensure that before the long night comes, we, and even the kingdom, Try not to suffer any losses, Lingol, always monitor the offensive in the east, if necessary."

He suddenly stood up: "I will ride a dragon myself and go on an expedition." He looked into the distance: "Vormisor has grown enough. Even the underground fortress will be under the dragon flames of Vormisor. Collapse, melt.”

Ringor was stunned. He had never seen his old father yelling about beating and killing so seriously.

"I understand, Father."

At this time, Igor's room.

The boy got up from the bed in a daze.

His memory stopped when he was training with his sister. As for the scenes in his sleep, he had completely forgotten them.

"Igor, how do you feel now?"

Daenerys sat beside the boy's bed with a worried look on her face and asked cautiously: "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Sebastian stood aside with a wry smile on his face, as if he was standing in a penalty stand.

"Igordani is like crazy, she doesn't listen to me at all."

"I'm fine, sister, I just feel so tired suddenly." Igor said weakly.

Suddenly, a flash of lightning seemed to flash in his mind.

He seemed to vaguely recall something, yes, the silver dragon, and the gorgeous Aurora Wall in the snow and ice.

"I seem to have dreamed of something."

"What did you dream about?" Sebastian suddenly rushed over and said in shock.

"Sebastian, get up!" Daenerys pushed her cousin away and said angrily: "Igor just woke up, don't scare him."

"Dani, you are not like this usually," Sebastian said a little hurt. "Igor, tell your brother what you dreamed about."

Igor carefully recalled the things he saw in his dream, introducing them bit by bit.

Daenerys was still confused, she just felt that her brother had a bizarre dream, the only strange thing was that he suddenly fell asleep.

Sebastian's expression became more and more wonderful the more he listened.

He looked at his cousin seriously.

"If Igor is right, you might be dreaming about a dragon. You might be the first dream walker in the family's history."

The preliminary work is done. Millions of words of information. I will be busy with my master's thesis next year. I will update three times tomorrow.
