Ice and Fire: Reign of the Dragon
Chapter 79: Battle of Prince's Pass (45, please order first)
The war in Dorne finally came to light after a long period of torture. The exhausted people chose to speak with their feet. Countless Dorne refugees flocked to the relatively safe stone roads and red frontiers.
But more people hid just as they did with the conquerors. They hide in hidden oases in the great desert, in small islands on the Green Blood River, and in caves in the hills.
As a result, several major families were embarrassed to find that it was difficult for them to recruit troops, and several years of war had caused the entire Dorne to face a catastrophic famine.
In the past few years, the City of God's Grace changed hands six times, and was eventually destroyed in a fire that swept through the entire castle. The two sides were furious and started a massacre in the castle at the same time. The Elion family was here. The clan was almost wiped out in repeated battles, and the cavalry of the Yronwood family even rushed to Slat Town to burn, kill and loot.
However, the Martell family, which had obtained the unexplained gold, quickly regrouped. Prince Keolen hired a pirate fleet from the Stepstone Islands to raid the port of Yronwood City and almost burned this historic port. Lewin The "King's" revenge followed. He also hired a pirate fleet, carrying the new Earl Jordan and his army to raid Soul Hill. Soul Hill, which had almost become an empty city, naturally could not resist the Yronwood family. The attack forced the surviving Mrs. Toland to raise the flag.
"King" Albin of House Dain took advantage of the chaos to seize Hellgate Keep and confronted House Yronwood and House Martell in the Sulfur River Basin.
Until "King Lewen" discovered that the fine armor worn by Count Doran Gogenles' elite cavalry came from the same place as the armor of his own bodyguards.
"King" Levin finally realized what their short-sightedness and stupidity had brought about, but by this time they had lost their hearts.
He sent out cavalry in an attempt to summon the heir to Wangzhong City, but the cavalry never returned. The cautious "King" Levin once again sent 200 spearmen, but in the end they never returned.
Only then did Levin react. The Red Frontier no longer belongs to itself, nor does it even belong to Dorne in the traditional sense.
So he tried to make peace with Prince Keoulun, but Prince Keoulun's reply was that he personally led his army to attack Soul Mound and hanged Yronwood who stayed behind.
Lewin could only send out troops to try to regain the Red Frontier, but the final result was that his 4,000 infantry were routed by 2,000 cavalry led by Linn Vartaken and Aslan Rondel, and even he was almost captured .
Shortly after this battle. The Tully family sent 2,000 infantry and 500 cavalry to join 3,000 infantry and 300 cavalry from the Cavron family, Dondarrion family, and Selmy family. They were also joined by 1,000 infantry and 100 cavalry from the Cullen family. They fought Came with the flag to defend Prince's Pass.
The core of this force is the 3,000 silver-blooded army led by Aslan Rondel, including 900 cavalry.
This army slowly rolled towards Prince's Pass. Along with this army are eight dragons,
Young Arax, Vomax, the Shadowgaunt who was growing so fast that he could carry people to the sky, Vomithor, as well as Aegon the Great's Sunfire and Aemond's Vhagar. and Princess Rhaenyra and Prince Daemon, who were there on behalf of the king, and of course, most importantly, their dragons.
Silver Wing stayed behind in Dragon Nest City, which made Valar quite unhappy, but at the same time he was proud of his great responsibility.
In the ruins of Tianji City, eight giant dragons rest in the mountains. Vhagar, the oldest and largest, lowered his old and slack chin and slowly exhaled. The majestic and gorgeous Yang Yan was screaming around Syrax, and then was stopped by the bloodworm Korak who was staying aside. Hugh roared so loud that he flew backwards. Womax was lying next to Womisor who was staring into the distance. He didn't know what he was doing. Arax and Shadow Nightmare were playing in the air. The skinny black dragon has now grown. It has a pair of hard horns that bend forward. The huge membrane wings and the skinny body are quite scary. Even Vhagar couldn't help but see it. Growled a few times.
Prince Keoren Martell pursed his lips and looked up from time to time at the eight giant beasts.
"Yronwood is finished." The prince sighed and turned to look at Princess Rhaenyra. "Your Highness, I know very well that Dorne cannot afford another loss like this."
"So can you agree to our terms?" Princess Rhaenyra asked, her tone more of an order than a question.
Doran Gorgenles was guarding the prince. His eyes when looking at the eight-headed dragon were almost demented.
"I didn't expect that the Iron Throne could offer such generous terms. I have no reason to refuse." Prince Keolen sighed.
The conditions given by the Iron Throne are indeed favorable. Dorne will be divided into three parts. Prince's Pass, Red March, Stone Road and North Yronwood Valley will be divided into the territory of March. The Martell family will retain "Sunhalberd". With the title "Prince of the City", he can retain the territory from the Sulfur River in the west to the sea in the east, but he needs to hand over the right to coinage and port management rights.
The Dane family also received almost the same conditions. The territories of Starfall City and Gaoyin City will be completely retained. In addition, the other half of the Sulfur River Basin and the desert where Sandstone City is located will also belong to Dane. House, Albin Dayne can retain the title of "Guardian of the Flooding River". But all powers need to be handed over.
Albin Dayne tried to resist, but was eventually suppressed by Obaya Dayne's army, and he could only accept this condition obediently.
"The army of House Yronwood is coming, my lord." Arax sprinted to the ground, and Luthris did not have time to catch his breath and immediately reported the situation.
"Very good." Longzier put on his helmet. "It's our turn."
Rhaenyra was the first to climb onto Syrax's saddle. Aemond patted Vhagar's back excitedly, but Vhagar looked at Vermithor from time to time. Several teenagers also rode their own dragons, waiting for orders at any time.
The most excited one was Aegon the Great, who almost took off directly if the bloodworm had not roared at him.
The oldest and slowest Vhagar took off first, followed by Vermithor. The two dragons will be responsible for the main attack, followed by Korakshu, Syrax and Yangyan, and the three young dragons will take off last, and they are responsible for chasing and killing the fleeing enemies at high altitudes.
Although the scales of the young dragons have hardened, no one is willing to take the risk.
The army of the Yronwood family slowly emerged from the valley entrance.
When "King" Leven saw the eight-headed dragon slowly rising into the sky, only one sentence remained in his mind.
"Seven layers of hell."
