The king on the Great Wall

If it wasn't for Gudi's suppression of the rebellion in time, and he rushed back to King's Landing, Nina might be forced to become the fourth one. Iger felt a little scared in his heart. Without the support of the power, the civilian girl faced the threat of the commander of the garrison. He can imagine how helpless the lure is: "How can you be so clear about this kind of privacy? Could it be that you have already done an investigation?"

"Privacy? That can only be called privacy if Slynt hides it himself! This bastard is relying on the king as his backer and the Minister of Justice to take care of things. He is unscrupulous and doesn't cover up at all!" Bywater was annoyed when he thought about it, and he said through gritted teeth : "The way Slynt got those three girls was disgraceful, but after he got them, he didn't deny them. Instead, he treated them all as little wives. Not only did he send pocket money for living expenses regularly, but he often sent guards Soldiers go to the 'home' to help deliver daily necessities, move furniture, clean up, etc., and sometimes even go outside the city to help the girl's parents and brothers with farm work! Because I have a bad relationship with him, these dirty jobs are tiring. My brother in Linhemen He has done the most, he is showing off his might to me!"

"It's just right for him to be so arrogant. We're going to bring him down. Evidence materials can be easily found, hehe...Sir Bywater, can you sort out and collect the names and addresses of Slynt's three lovers and illegitimate children? Give it to me to use?"

"I can't for the time being, because I haven't done these tasks myself, only the brothers under me know. And once I start sorting out this information, the brothers will all know that I am going to fight against Slynt, and through Slynt's People who have become officers through channels are everywhere in the garrison, and my subordinates are also unavoidable. Once the news leaks, it will be in big trouble, Slynt, this guy can take both black and white." Bywater shook his head: "I can only assure you that if the Prime Minister really comes to investigate Slynt, I can quickly hand over all useful evidence to him."

I was already careful enough, but I didn't expect to meet someone who was more cautious than myself. Iger wanted to laugh, but he could understand, so he nodded: "That's fine, then we agreed like this?"

"I always do what I say." Bywater knocked on the table with the iron hand on his right arm, "But you and your friends, you must be careful these two days, if Slynt goes crazy, then It doesn't matter."

He and Tyrion reported directly to the Prime Minister, and Iger didn't believe it-Ed Stark would leak the whistleblower's information to Slynt.Of course, just in case, he still brought Jaqen with him: "Thank you for your concern, then, goodbye, the operation will start in a day or two, Sir, please take it to heart."

"Ever since I lost my arm, my memory is so good, I don't give it away!"

Chapter 153

Janos Slynt's ability to become the commander of the garrison was actually an accidental product of a compromise negotiated by various forces.

As the management team of the largest city in the Seven Kingdoms, the King's Landing Garrison is such an oil-and-water yamen. The kings, especially the local forces in King's Landing, are not trying their best to drill into it. How could it be possible for a commoner who was born as a butcher to be the commander?

In the 300-year history of the Targaryen Dynasty, the King's Landing Garrison has always maintained the composition of "half of the king's recruitment, and half of the king's land dispatched by each family". The commander is generally a member of the king's family... The power of the king's land belongs to the king. Directly subordinate vassals, their interests are closely related to the king, and the manpower they place is naturally loyal to the king. This kind of personnel structure seems to be suspected of ostracizing the king, but in fact it does not threaten the rule of the Iron Throne.

After the Reaver's War, Robert replaced the Dragons on the Iron Throne, and all the Houses of the Kingland became his vassals.These families have been devastated by the war, and they have no idea of ​​revenge and restoration for the Targaryen family. In order to consolidate the rule and appease these tense old Targaryen officials, Robert also tried to save money and effort, so he did not pay attention to the legacy of the previous dynasty. "Tradition" made drastic reforms, but turned a blind eye to the status quo of the defense team.

The new king is "frank and magnanimous". On the contrary, the king's leaders "measure the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain" under the guilty conscience. The same fights openly and secretly, making Robert look uneasy, it is better to take the initiative to sing a hymn of loyalty.They sent representatives to express to Jon Arryn that the next highest officer of the garrison, that is, the election of the commander, the princes and princes will not interfere in any way, and the candidates will not be selected from any of them, but choose commoners born in King's Landing , let him be under the direct command of the new king only!

According to the custom, the commander of the garrison was selected from the seven captains of the garrison. Among the seven, only two were born as civilians, and one died in battle when the Lannister army broke through the city. Therefore, Janos Slynt As the only garrison squad leader who is still alive and qualified, he just became the only lucky one.After taking the position, she relied on doing dirty work for the Wang family to clean up the mess, and soon won the favor of the new master, and embarked on the road to prosperity.

Janos Slynt always claimed that he was able to get along well because of "there are many friends in the court", but Tyrion can perfectly reveal his true face with a simple and rough description: Robert's dog That's all.What nobleman would have scorned a butcher-born wretch if Robert hadn't existed?As he unknowingly offended an emerging interest group in this world, his "friends" who had collectively pushed him to the top became his diggers overnight under Tyrion's lobbying. The tomb man, with the nods, acquiescence and even cooperation of these bigwigs after taking Tyrion's increased "dividends", the whole city began to secretly brew a storm... and the center of the storm, the man who has been rampant in King's Landing for more than ten years Commander of the Garrison, the good times are finally coming to an end.

***

While the battle of the commander of the garrison was in full swing, inside the high walls of the Red Fort, another confrontation and contest between the top nobles was also going on intensely—the two sides quietly began to transfer personnel internally. The cooks, stewards and soldiers of the Tucker family began to take over the kitchens, warehouses and gates of the Red Castle; the Kingsguard led a small number of Red Castle guards and were ordered to gather around the royal residence to personally guard the king.Although Cersei is a queen, she has no power to resist when Robert is still alive. She can only stay with her children uncharacteristically not going back to her residence day and night, hoping that the children can be her shields and talismans. At her request, the red robes of the Lannister family guarded where the prince and princess were...

There are undercurrents surging up and down in King's Landing City, and people with a little sensitive nose can already smell the smell of the changing sky.And it seems to be destined that now, the two struggles between the upper and lower levels have coincidentally converged on the king's "dog".

……

"Robert, who is this commander of your garrison!" Ed sighed in the prime minister's tower, and threw a stack of papers in front of the king: "Look at what he has done."

"What, someone wants to mess with him?" Robert drank less alcohol these days than at any time in the past ten years, rarely dissatisfied with a flushed face, and quite majestic: "Don't look, it must be that woman Cersei What happened, she has already got more than 100 red robes from the Lannister family to her side. If she is not guilty, how could this happen? In terms of the number of soldiers in the Red Castle, we are not in the upper hand. The Lannister family The training level of the soldiers is not low, if something happens to the garrison at this time, we will have no cards."

"Oh, Your Majesty believes that the queen planned these reports? I am against it. I casually read the contents above. They are all real-name report letters. The informers range from ordinary people and businessmen in various industries in King's Landing to princes and princes. All kinds of people, even the night watchman got involved. If the Lannister family can remotely control all these people, I should pack up and go back to Winterfell now." Ed narrated blankly: "Moreover, I can tell you responsibly that after a day of preliminary investigation, the contents of these letters are all well-founded, and they are not at all improvised fabrications. One of the incidents of robbing civilian women was even reported by Arya I see you, do you think my little daughter will be bribed and cheated on me?"

"Snatching girls by force? You like to exaggerate... Slynt's idiot, at best, is just verbally molesting the girl you met on the way, and then getting some gifts from his subordinates, and at most charging some favors to those who do business Forget it. Well, forget it, I'd like to see..." Robert grabbed the stack of papers, turned them back in front of him, and read them.

Although he said he didn't believe it, but after reading the letters Ed handed in one by one, the disdainful and contemptuous expression on Robert's fat face gradually faded away, and he began to look ugly... After five or six After a few minutes, the surprise and displeasure completely turned into anger.Without continuing to read, the King of the Seven Kingdoms slapped the letters on the table: "It's too presumptuous, is this King's Landing my King's Landing, or his King's Landing? Slynt, the commander of the garrison, I think he is the It's over!"

"Didn't Your Majesty say swearingly before, 'I know what kind of person he is better than you'?" Ed folded his chest and looked at Robert, not at all surprised by his performance: "It seems that Your Majesty cares about the people around him." My understanding is not as comprehensive as I imagined. Perhaps, Janos Slynt was really a fool 16 years ago, but after so many years, people will change, not to mention being the commander of the capital defense force. A high position with power and soldiers?"

"Well, I admit that the problem with Slynt is more serious than I imagined, and I was deceived by the honesty he pretended in front of me." The anger on Robert's face faded slowly, I became suspicious again: "But don't you think it's too coincidental, at this moment when I need the defense team to help me the most, how come these reports just came out all at once?"

"Is it my fault? Isn't this supposed to be the job of your younger brother, the Minister of Justice? If he had done practical things earlier, why would he wait for me, the new Prime Minister, to pass him over to find me?" Ed asked three times in a row, sighing He breathed a sigh of relief: "However, I can guess the reason why so many report letters came directly to my desk this time - the night watchman industry, you should know that you granted tax exemption to its creator not long ago of."

"Well... I remember this incident. I had a drink and agreed to it casually." Robert explained with some displeasure, "But since the words have already been spoken, there is no reason to take them back, so it's not bad for him. That's a tax."

"You're always like this, but this time I think it's a good decision. The defenders of the Great Wall are facing unprecedented difficulties. It's good to decide to solve the problem by self-reliance. It's not good that the Iron Throne can't give direct support. Exempt some taxes The gift is not too much. But the commander of your garrison is good. Even your property that does not collect taxes, he is jealous to get some oil and water. What kind of things always come to me first. Although this is against the rules, who makes the North the first beneficiary of the existence of the Night Watchman Corps? I know many Night Watchmen, including Iger West Boy, as long as he tells others that Ed Stark is a nosy person, all the reports that he couldn't find a place to submit, will naturally come to me."

Robert muttered sullenly, "Janos the bastard, I'll have to bang him when I get back."

"Knock him well?" Ed was really surprised now, and even raised his voice a lot: "Didn't you carefully read the letter I just sent you, just such a person who made King's Landing a mess, you You still want to keep him?"

Robert felt that he was in the wrong, so he didn't dare to answer: "Even if you want to touch him, you have to wait until the woman Cersei and his brother are settled before moving?"

"What gave you the confidence that 'this is a rotten person, but he must be loyal to me'?" Ed insisted without flinching: "People who have no bottom line will have no bottom line in any aspect, and will never be able to do it." Trust. I think that only by handing over the King's Landing Garrison to a loyal and reliable person first, can our next plan be implemented safely and securely!"

"You have too many things! Believe it or not, I will directly order the garrison to enter the Red Keep to arrest Cersei and James, and then there will be nothing more to do? By then, whoever you want to be the commander of the garrison will be up to you." Whoever you want, you can let your daughter Arya do whatever you want, but why do you want to confront me!"

"Now arrest Cersei, what's the reason? Because the rumors say that the two of them are messing around?" Ed really couldn't bear the king's repentance of the plan he had already agreed on: "And, is there anything wrong? When Duke Tywin led Wes When the mercenaries and troops with the brightest armor, the sharpest weapons, and the most ruthless trolls come to question, you will call them 'what's the matter'?"

"If he dares to raise an army, I will let the Lannisters perish like the Targaryens!"

"Robert, you are not a child anymore, don't talk such nonsense!" Ed was finally a little angry: "You just used your power as a monarch in the valley, and the vassals have not done anything for you for a whole year It's time to fight! Then you will fight with Lord Tywin, what will you use to pay for the army? Or are you so anxious to divorce Cersei so that you can marry the one who has been hanging around in front of you and me in the Red Castle these days? Tyrell girl?"

"Pay attention to the way you speak, you are facing the king now!" Robert growled out of habit, "I told Margaery Tyrell to leave her alone and I went to Robb. The son is in a daze and wants to ask me for a marriage to the Frey family!"

"Yes, I failed to discipline my son well. Let's not talk about it. You are the king, and you have the right to make the final decision. But I have to remind your majesty that rumors are still only rumors for the time being. As long as we haven't got If it is proven, it will always be a rumor!" The hair color of the prince and princess is indeed a doubtful point, but Ed has always been cautious - if the blond-black hair problem is found out through his own efforts, he will believe that this is the truth , but now this piece of "evidence" was forced into his ears by Littlefinger through rumors, and Ed was worried because of his rebellious psychology: "If your majesty insists on acting recklessly according to his own ideas, I have no objection, but please allow I will resign first, and then you can start your 'decisive and swift' solution plan!"

"Okay, okay!" Robert hammered the table angrily, but there was nothing he could do with someone who was not afraid of getting angry: "You investigate this damn Slynt now, but remember, the next The commander of the garrison must be one of our people... Ah, you damn Yankee, you really don't know, when I think of those words from outside, I feel sick to death, how can I get tough and go to Cersei Have another child? If I die before you finally find out the truth, I must be killed by you, and I will come to you to settle accounts with you after you go to the seven hells, remember!"

Chapter 154 Win or Die

On the first day of the "three days" that Tyrion claimed, the King's Landing Guard still harassed and made things difficult for the normal operation of the Night Watchman's industry as usual, until Tyrion showed his face before pretending to retreat.But after all, Slynt was not completely without sources of information. By the next day, following the strange change in the wind direction, he had already ordered the golden robes to stop their movements after noticing the abnormality.

In the east camp of the garrison, the commander was sitting in his office, discussing with his confidants the mysterious visitor who had just left.

……

"Is that the queen's man?" Aral Dim, Slynt's number one henchman asked in surprise, "Why did the queen send someone to look for you?"

"He gave me a big gift—the man told me that the dwarf brother of the queen is teaming up with the night watchman named Iger to punish me, and persuaded many royal nobles to set a bunch of crimes on me with the real name of the prime minister. Take down the position of the commander of the garrison." Slynt said with a stiff expression: "No wonder when I went to a few shops yesterday, I felt that their attitude towards me was not as polite as usual. It must be the master behind them who ordered them to report me by real name !"

"Ah?" Aral couldn't turn this corner, "Why would the queen care about this kind of thing? And she is still Tyrion's own sister, why would she betray her brother to help us?"

"Isn't it normal for the dignified queen to have some eyeliners in the palace to know some inside information?" Genos' face was gloomy, and he began to realize that he might not be in trouble with the Night Watch office: "As for why you want to help me?" ... Hehe, she wants to bribe me to rebel on her behalf, kill the king and drive away the prime minister, and push her son who doesn't know whose son he is. Make me a nobleman."

"Rebellion?" Yalar was taken aback: "So, the rumors about her and her brother are true. Now that the king is back, he can't cover up his adultery, so he's ready to fight?"

"It looks like this, Yalar, if you were the commander of the garrison, would you agree?"

"My lord, this...I'm afraid it won't work. King Robert and our brothers in the garrison all know each other. If he just yelled casually in front of His Majesty, the brothers would definitely tie us up and hand us over to the king immediately."

Aral Dim stammered and said, in fact, this is not only a matter of the soldiers knowing the king, as long as the officers have enough command and benefits, what kind of king cannot be overthrown?But the current situation is: on one side is the founding king with great martial arts and unparalleled prestige, the lord of the Seven Kingdoms who pays all the soldiers of the garrison; It's okay for Slynt to rely on Robert's support to do his best, but to rebel against the latter... who would follow a mad dog that turned around and bit its master?

Half of the soldiers in the garrison are loyal to the king and princes, and most of the remaining thousand soldiers hate the commander...even if the more than 100 brothers in the east camp of the garrison are loyal to Slynt Geng Geng, but how could this kind of shallow loyalty maintained only by "normal pay" drive them to rebel against the king?

Slynt was well aware of this, and he nodded: "I also don't think it will be possible. The king summoned me two days ago, didn't he mean to attack the Lannister family? Your Majesty has taken precautions against the queen. In my heart, without the king's order, the brothers in the garrison might not even be able to enter the gate of the Red Keep, and we don't have siege equipment, what kind of rebellion? The girl Cersei is about to die, You still want to pull me back, shit! If one of the three evils belongs to Lao Tzu, I might even accompany her to make a big ticket, and she has never slept with me, so why should I die for her?"

Yalar breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that the adults did not agree."

"I promise."

"what?!"

Slynt glared at his confidant: "Idiot, what do you want to do if you agree, I can still report to His Majesty and make meritorious deeds!"

"So that's the case!" Yalar breathed a sigh of relief, "But since that's the case, how does your lord plan to deal with the night watchman and that dwarf's plan to bring you down?"

"Well... simple. The rumors that Tyrion and his sister have a bad relationship are actually true. At this critical moment of life and death, the members of the Lannister family are not communicating with each other, and they are still singing their own plays. It's ridiculous." Slynt's face flashed fiercely, "Since the 'Night Watchman Industry' is messing with me, you say, I will tell the king at this time, in fact, the owner of the Night Watchman Industry is Tyrion Lannister, And the queen once found someone to try to bribe me to murder him, what will your majesty think?"

Aral Dim thought for a while and shook his head.

"You never use your brain! Your Majesty will definitely think that it is the queen who failed to bribe me, so she instigated her younger brother to get me out of power!"

"It makes sense!"

"As long as the king still trusts me, I can buy myself time." Janos Slynt took a deep breath. For many years, he had never experienced such a feeling of impending doom—he did not expect a little The night watchman industry can have this kind of energy, careless: "It's just a woman, these two guys, Iger and Tyrion, actually want to kill me. Since they make the first move, don't blame me for being rude!"

Didn't you make the mess first? Don't you allow others to take revenge?Aral Dim thought to himself, but after all, he and Slynt were in the same boat, so he had to help his elder brother: "My lord, tell me how to do it."

"Get rid of these two people, and the gang of idiots who partnered with them to bring me down will naturally be in a mess. It's just a bunch of mobs who came together to make money. As long as the leader dies, the rest will definitely only care about it." There is no time to pay attention to me when they are vying for the big piece of night watchman property." Slynt said through gritted teeth. "To protect a chick against me? I killed you. Not only did I sleep with her, but I also forced her to snatch a share of the inheritance of the night watchman's estate for me. I spent your money to sleep with her, and spent your money to sleep with her. I raise my son!"

"Good idea sir, I heard that Nina is in charge of accounts in the night watchman property, it would be so easy to accept her and let her get you some money back!" Aral Dim said pleasantly, but immediately felt a little bit Hesitating: "My lord, after all, these two guys are not like the two idiots who promised Jon Arryn to testify against you last year, and this time is not right - His Majesty ordered us to reorganize the defense team so that they can be used at any time , we are mobilizing our brothers to avenge our personal vengeance with great fanfare, and killing two prominent people, His Majesty will blame it, it is not easy to handle... Besides, the prime minister has already started an investigation, so we can't kill the prime minister too, can we?"

"Then don't let the brothers of the garrison do this, what about your cronies, let them do it!" Slynt frowned and thought, "The Prime Minister, as long as I tell His Majesty: 'The Lannister family has already I am ready for treason, and I will attack at any time, please make a decision as soon as possible'... With His Majesty's quick temper, he will definitely act first. As long as there is turmoil in the Red Castle, and lions, wolves and deer bite into a ball, do you think the Prime Minister is still in danger? Do you have the time to take care of my little role?" He gradually revealed a smug expression, "When we help King Robert take down the Lannister House and make great contributions in controlling King's Landing, even if the Prime Minister continues to investigate, at worst it will be merit or demerit Even out... life is safe! Not to mention that I will definitely have to fight with Duke Tywin in the future, the war will be chaotic, who wants to check me!"

"My lord, what a plan!" For the first time, Aral Dim discovered that besides being ruthless, his elder brother also had such brains. This plan was flawless!

"It's not that I have a good plan, but that you are so stupid, I have to figure out a way by myself! Okay, do it as soon as possible, I want those two ignorant guys to die today! If they live a moment longer, I will do it for one more time." The danger of splitting the head!" Slynt was also proud of himself for being able to come up with such a perfect plan, and then a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he added: "Wait, Tyrion don't touch him, after all It's a Lannister, it's better to wait for His Majesty's instructions before doing it. His father Tywin is in the Western Region after all. If we reach an agreement with our king in the future in exchange for his children and grandchildren, he will have to track down the death of this dwarf son afterwards. , then we might be sold by Eddard Stark's rigid stuff."

The deterrent force of "Castamere's Rainy Season" is too strong after all, even the commander of the garrison far away in King's Landing is a little scared of Duke Tywin's revenge.

"Okay, this subordinate will do it now."

"Come back, hurry up!" Slynt patted the table, "There is one more thing, if I don't tell you, you won't think of it. This Igger West turned out to be a Ranger of the Night's Watch, and he also has the nickname 'White Walker. Killer, it is said that he is very skilled, and he can fight dozens of tricks with Prince of Dorn's "Red Viper". It's okay for your gangster friends to bully and bully ordinary people. Can you deal with this kind of stubbornness? I'll give you an approval, go Get two crossbows out of the arsenal, sneak them out to your friends, and tell them to take some time to practice before doing it!"

"Yes!"

Aral Diem took the crossbow and arrow strips and left the garrison commander's office, while Janos Slynt stood up and walked slowly to the window.

……

This time, if the girl Cersei hadn't sent the key information in time, I would almost have capsized in this gutter, and I really have to thank her.It's a pity that it's impossible to pull myself into a rebellion that would kill my head... The game of power is played by these damn nobles. For a person like myself who has no birth and no background, it is enough to hug one thigh tightly , There are a bunch of wives and children under the old mother, and fight the world with a crazy woman who sleeps with her own brother?joke!

This is the seven gods caring for me. Looking at the busy Night Watchman's office across the street, Slynt sneered: Soon, there will be another woman in my harem, and the harder it is to get a woman to play with. The more enjoyable it is to wake up, as long as this girl doesn't have stupid thoughts of revenge for her boss, I will definitely spoil her well.

Chapter 155 The Beginning of Chaos in King's Landing

Iger had never been a big boss or a national leader before traveling. I really couldn't imagine how terrifying the power of capital is until I experienced it myself.The night watchman industry, a commercial body established and grown for less than half a year, Tyrion compared it to his daughter—this "girl" who was only half a year old, waved her immature arms and punched for the first time in her life. The balance of life almost tilted towards her!

Before the end of the second day, even the shopkeepers and businessmen with the worst news in the market had begun to mysteriously tell their family and friends after tea and dinner: "Janos Slynt is about to be in bad luck."

Tyrion said to take this man within three days, and now it seems that there is hope.

……

In the communication with partners, Iger has learned that all King's Landing forces that have interests in the Night Watchman industry have all nodded to Tyrion's decision to change the commander of the garrison; After Leon sent someone to say hello, he said that he would not tip off the news or intervene to obstruct it... The royal princes have even begun to prepare for a meeting between representatives to decide on the next commander.Having learned a lesson, this time, they don't intend to delegate this key position to irrelevant citizens of King's Landing.

Now, all the preparations Iger has made will come in handy when the Prime Minister takes action!

(This is probably the trend of the times, or to put it bluntly, the wall is falling and everyone is pushing?) Iger walked out of the Steel Gate Guards station, thinking happily while getting some evidence of Slynt's misdeeds.

The enemy is doomed to fall, and now the last and only factor that determines whether Tyrion's surname should be written upside down-is when Ed Stark will formally decide to dismiss him and arrest him for investigation.

Lannister, written backwards in Westeros script, seems to read Rhettsnell?Smiling at the correct pronunciation of Tyrion's surname written upside down, Iger untied the horse tied to the gate of the Iron Gate Guard station, turned over and rode on, and set foot on the way back to the house in the twilight.

Half of the garrison's list of available officers has not been seen, but there is no need to visit again. The black materials currently available are enough to make the current garrison commander beheaded ten times. To deal with the enemy, it turns out that there is Time really doesn't need a sword.

"Running around for the past two days, it's been hard work. Tomorrow, all the staff in the office will have a vacation and go to the Night Watchman Industrial Park outside the city to avoid the limelight. Who knows if this mad dog Slynt will get up and jump over the wall in a hurry? We will return to the city after he is under control."

Now the number of "Night Watchman Logistics Security Team" has expanded to more than one hundred, plus a large number of employees, even if Slynt reacts and brings his confidants to the door to fight desperately, it is completely worthwhile.

"Yes." Jia Kun always looked like he cherished words like gold.

"Go, go home, sleep."

***

Night had just fallen, and King's Landing hadn't fallen asleep yet. Although there weren't many pedestrians on the street, various sounds still came from all directions: cats fighting in the alleys, dogs barking in front of their houses, laughter overflowing from the tavern, Singing and shouting also drifted into my ears from time to time... Amidst the noisy background of the largest city in the Seven Kingdoms, the two of them rode through the bustling main street and returned to the residential area where they lived, facing the last ray of light in the western sky.

Turning right into the branch road, they quickly rode to a place only a few hundred meters away from "home", but very suddenly, Jia Kun took the initiative to say: "Stop!"

"Huh?" This power struggle is coming to an end, and a string in Iger's heart is always tense. Hearing this, he immediately reined in: "What's wrong."

"A rope."

With the last bit of brightness scattered in the sky by the atmosphere, Iger quickly saw the rope that Jaqen mentioned. It was swaying softly on the ground, and its two ends protruded into the houses on both sides of the road. It looked inconspicuous. , but it is conceivable: if the two rode forward without realizing it, and the rope stretched straight as they passed by, they would definitely trip over the horse and throw them off their mounts—if they were unlucky and were pinned down by the horse, they would at least be seriously injured if they didn’t die.

Come on yourself!Iger guessed the correct answer in an instant. In this war without swords, he has already gained an overwhelming advantage, and he can only pick the fruits of victory when they are ripe.But where did the opponent get the news? Even if he had an accident now, it would not change the outcome of the contest, but after all, he only has one life. If a person dies, what does it have to do with him, no matter how brilliant the night watchman industry's victory is?

With such a large-scale up-and-down linkage and Qianquan chemical reaction, it is really impossible to completely keep the wind, but Iger did not expect the opponent to move so fast.Before he had time to think about where the news leaked from, Iger reached out and touched his waist. The cold hilt gave him a sense of security. Not only did he bring a weapon this time, but he also had a Faceless Man who was his subordinate in name beside him. It's not that there is no resistance!

After stopping, all the surrounding sounds became vivid and clear.Iger was on guard, thinking about whether to turn around and retreat or move on, but Jia Kun, who was on the right, suddenly raised his left leg without warning and kicked himself.With this strong force, Iger lost his balance and fell off the saddle.

Unprepared for the attacks from around him, and it was too late to figure out the situation, Iger twisted his legs and ankles at the moment he fell off the horse, and both of them got out of the stirrups, avoiding head-down injuries or being dragged by the horse. At the risk of being pulled, he rolled on the ground, stood firm, and immediately pulled out the sword with a "clang".

Why did Jaqen attack him suddenly?Iger put on a fighting stance, but his heart sank: If this faceless man from the Black and White Academy is going to be bad for him, I'm afraid it will be bad luck tonight.

"There are crossbowmen upstairs, hide in the alley!"

Jia Kun didn't pull out his weapon and rushed towards Iger as expected, but used the recoil of that kick to also get off his horse, and slipped past him with his body low while talking.

Everything happened so fast, and Iger's brain finally reacted, and he understood where the two piercing sounds that sounded in his ears came from while he was being kicked just now.If Jia Kun hadn't kicked himself at a critical moment, he might have been hit by an arrow.

Without thinking too much, Iger also bent down, taking advantage of the opportunity of the enemy to rewind, followed Jia Kun into the gap between the two houses by the road.

It was completely dark, and the building was so dark that it was barely possible to see the road. There was the sound of chasing footsteps behind him, but there was severe pain on his right shoulder. Iger reached out and touched it, his palm was slippery. The arrow shot at him just now After all, Ya himself still couldn't dodge it completely, the arrow brushed his shoulder, bringing out a bleeding wound.

Ahead, four figures hiding on the side of the road jumped out, the short knives and long daggers in their hands reflected the light, and they stopped the rushing two in an instant.

"Hey, kid, where are you going!"

"Offended someone who shouldn't be offended, how dare you hang around in the city?"

He didn't respond to the other party's clamor, and after just two seconds of confrontation, Iger knew the strength of the four people in front of him: no training, just hooligans with weapons, and I'm afraid it's better than the savages outside the Great Wall if they fight with real knives and guns Not as good, although it is two against four.But as long as Jia Kun is willing to show strength equal to his own, they will pose no threat.
