Chapter 982 Massacre of the City

North! White Walkers? Maybe I should go there and confirm in person... Volant frowned and muttered to himself, staring at the notes in his hand.

Like Zhang Cheng, he is also an extremely insecure person.

The only difference between the two is that when Zhang Cheng feels threatened, he will fall into a mental state that is mixed with reason and madness, but Warrent only wants to escape from danger and find a safe place to hide.

After all, his ability is to predict what may happen in the future from the messy fragments, and it is the nature of most human beings to avoid evil and seek good fortune, so escaping becomes an inevitable choice.

You must know that although many chicken soups for the soul have repeatedly emphasized that when facing difficulties, you must face them head on, otherwise once you escape, you will be doomed to be inactive for the rest of your life.

But in fact, throughout the history of mankind, there are very few strong people who dare to face difficulties and dangers, and most people subconsciously choose to escape.

But Zhang Cheng is just the opposite. He hates fatalism and never believes that the future is fixed. He is not even willing to learn any prophecy magic and firmly believes that his own power can change the future.

The differences in personality and way of thinking between the two people have resulted in their completely different styles of behavior.

Just when Volant hired a carriage, left King's Landing and headed north on the King's Road, intending to visit the Great Wall and inquire about the White Walkers, Casterly Rock finally ushered in the prelude to its destruction.

Early in the morning, hundreds of catapults hurled cans filled with wildfire into the city in a parabola.

In the blink of an eye, large green flames soared into the sky and spread rapidly among the wooden houses. In just ten minutes or so, half of the city was engulfed in a sea of ​​flames, and screams and desperate cries were heard endlessly.

You don't need to ask to know that these dangerous things were all found in King's Landing.

They were originally terrifying weapons that the Targaryen family entrusted alchemists to secretly research after they lost their dragons. They were used to frighten those nobles with evil intentions. Today they finally came into use.

attack!

attack!

Archer! Throw!

With the noble officers shouting at the top of their lungs,

About six thousand infantrymen began to approach the east wall that had been melted by dragon flames.

In front of them, there were less than 3,500 soldiers holding shields and spears, stationed in place, intending to make the final resistance with their flesh and blood.

No surprises!

After the soldiers on both sides withstood a brief shower of arrows, they immediately entered into a brutal hand-to-hand encounter.

As we all know, hand-to-hand combat is an anaerobic exercise that consumes a lot of physical strength. Even after a long period of exercise, one cannot last long.

Generally speaking, an army with a sound system usually adopts a rotation system, which means that the veterans in the first row fight for a period of time, and then they step down and let the soldiers behind them take over in order to get a short rest and recovery time.

Due to differences in race and level of training, this time varies from three to five minutes.

This also means that the maximum limit for a person to hold a weapon and fight fiercely with the enemy is five minutes. After five minutes, he will immediately fall into a state of fatigue.

Any one-on-one duel lasting 180 rounds is a lie.

A true master can often decide life or death in a split second, without even the slightest bit of gorgeous moves, techniques, or movements in sight.

Unfortunately, the army of Westeros is still in a backward state full of ignorance and chaos. Most of the soldiers are either the private armies of nobles or temporarily hired mercenaries. Once they enter a state of melee, Tactical instructions are completely ineffective and it all depends on individual performance.

With the advantage of numbers, Daenerys's army quickly destroyed the enemy's formation, cut and surrounded them, and then annihilated them bit by bit.

When the death toll on both sides reached about a thousand, the soldiers loyal to the Lannister finally collapsed, dropped their weapons, turned around and ran away, even though green wildfire was everywhere behind them.

Seeing that the defeat was a foregone conclusion, the remaining soldiers immediately rushed in like a swarm of bees. While brutally killing every enemy who fell behind, they unscrupulously kicked open the houses, some looted property, and some raped women. I

Staring at the hellish scene ahead, Oberyn took a deep breath and sighed: They are finished! After today, Casterly Rock and Lannister will become history. But I have a question, what are you going to do with the West? You must know that without a strong family, this land will be filled with chaos, killing and death.

Don't worry, I plan to promote at least fifty knights, four barons, and two viscounts from among the soldiers who have made meritorious services. These guys promoted from the bottom of society are naturally loyal allies of the royal power. They will replace the queen. Your Majesty keeps an eye on the Western Region, and whoever dares to cause trouble will be met with ruthless destruction and death. Zhang Cheng responded nonchalantly.

Although he understands that promoting civilians from the bottom to become nobles means greed and corruption.

But the history of the earth has proven many times that the only way to overthrow the aristocrats who occupy a monopoly position is to promote civilians and suppress and tear apart this huge interest group from within.

Wow! A big deal! I have to admit that although many people used to say that I am a madman, I am obviously not crazy enough compared to you. I promoted fifty knights, four barons, and two people from civilians at one time. Viscount, I can guarantee that this will attract countless protests and objections. Oberyn raised his eyebrows, his tone full of gloating ridicule.

What is nobility?

Has a noble bloodline!

To put it bluntly, it’s about fighting for ancestors.

Your father, your grandfather, your grandfather's father, and your grandfather's grandfather must have a noble title for at least five generations, otherwise they will be ostracized by all nobles.

The most typical example is Davos Seaworth, the Onion Knight.

Although he won Stannis's trust, the old nobles never really recognized him, and even laughed at his poor and humble origins again and again.

Protest? Object? Zhang Cheng raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a meaningful sneer. Do you think I care about this? No! Dear Oberyn, I will use practical actions to prove that the resistance of the so-called nobles is as powerless as a teenage girl facing a strong gangster.

After saying that, Zhang Cheng turned his gaze to Daenerys, who was frowning not far away.

The queen was obviously not used to this kind of brutal scene of massacre of the city. She opened her mouth several times to give orders to stop the massacre of civilians and looting of property. Unfortunately, the current chaotic situation made her lose control of the army, and she even lost control of the army. The noble officers in charge were nowhere to be found.
