Yes, now he can't think of any other way but to surrender. Except for King's Landing, almost 80.00% of the land in the mainland has fallen into the hands of the Northern Alliance family headed by Avi Crane.The remaining 20.00%, maybe they have the heart to resist, but now they have no troops at all.

For example, the Tyrell family, which is allied with Lannister, is the Rose family.Now they have fled back to Gaoting with the remaining soldiers, staying behind closed doors and staying at home.

The reason why Gaoting hasn't fallen yet is because Li Lingyi is temporarily unable to take action. Once King's Landing is dealt with, the next one will definitely be Gaoting, which is not far from King's Landing. When the time comes to face these tens of thousands of soldiers Feng, what do they use to resist?

As soon as Li Ling knew this, so did Lannister, and of course the Tyrell family knew it too.

In fact, "Queen of Thorns" Olenna Redwyne has already identified the general trend, so she also extended an olive branch to the Bannerless Family, expressing her willingness to abandon the alliance with Lannister and join the Northern Alliance. middle.

As a result, King's Landing is almost in a desperate situation of loneliness. Perhaps the Bolton family, which is far away in the extreme north, is still willing to support the Iron Throne, but they can only talk about it verbally.

"We will not surrender." Tai Wen said for a long time, "Now we still have hope. If the Golden Squad can arrive and attack the coalition forces from behind, we may be able to defeat them by cooperating with the attack from the city. After all, those soldiers are just farmers , have not received professional combat training, it is just that there are too many people."

"yes……"

The little devil nodded in agreement, but he was also sighing inwardly.Sighing to such a desperate situation, even my father, who has always been smart and rational, fell into unnecessary fantasies.

The golden group?Maybe it will come, but more likely it won't.

After all, those mercenaries were not fools. Although they were willing to make money, they were unwilling to risk their own lives just to make money.Now that the continental war is in a one-sided situation, even if the mercenary group can win, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties, even if there is no one out of ten, are they willing to make such a big sacrifice?

If the two sides were evenly matched, then the Golden Group would definitely be willing to participate in one or two, but now...not to mention the Golden Group, even the Iron Treasury, which has always supported Lannister and the Iron Throne, has become ambiguous now. .

They know that maybe the money owed to them by Lannister and the Iron Throne will never be repaid, so instead of continuing to invest huge sums of money in them, it is better to find another supporter, such as Avi Crane, who is a good target .

……

"Humph."

As soon as Li Ling read the letter in his hand, he sneered and threw it aside.

At this time, Robb, who just walked into the tent, saw this, and immediately asked, "Who is the letter from?"

"Iron vault."

"The Iron Bank?!" Robb was taken aback. He had naturally heard of the existence of the Iron Bank, and knew that the latter was a very mysterious organization with countless golden dragons.

"them……"

"I want to support us." Li Ling said with a smile: "To put it bluntly, I want to lend us money. When we take King's Landing, we must return the money owed to them by Lannister and the Iron Throne. Are we really fools? ?”

"The city we have worked so hard to conquer, the golden dragon we captured should be returned to them? It's ridiculous." Li Ling shook his head, "I'm in a distant free city, and I've always wanted to control Westeros...maybe before It works, but that’s about it.”

Hearing this, Robb heard Li Lingyi's rejection, and nodded, "That's right, we can't let anyone influence you." After speaking, he suddenly remembered the purpose of his visit, and asked anxiously: "Ivy, Did you catch James? He's not dead yet!"

"Not dead, what's wrong?"

"I want to ask you to give him to me." Robb said earnestly, "My sister Sansa is still in King's Landing, that little bastard Joffrey used her to threaten me to retreat, but I think as long as I exchange it with James, I can definitely get my sister back!"

sansa...

As soon as Li Ling heard the words, she immediately understood that if Robb hadn't mentioned him, he would have forgotten the eldest lady of the wolf family. Indeed, now that Sansa is still imprisoned in King's Landing, it would be useless to blackmail Robb. It's just too normal.

"Okay." Li Lingyi naturally has no reason to refuse. After all, he is now engaged to Arya, so he has a good relationship with the Stark family. In terms of Chinese tradition, he even has to call out to Sansa. "Wife sister".

In this case, Robb asked him to replace Sansa with James, so he would definitely have to give it.Besides, keeping James in his hands wouldn't be of much use. After all, although old Tywin liked his son, he didn't like him enough to surrender for him.

"Okay!" Robb nodded heavily when he heard the words, "Thanks, Ivy."

"I'm writing to Soros now, asking him to send someone here." Li Lingyi said, James is still being imprisoned in Casterly Rock City, "but you have to think about it, maybe you want to change, but they... ...I won't necessarily change it with you."

Chapter 524

Remember in a second, free reading of wonderful novels!

Now the two sides are in an unequal state, and Lannister also knows that in terms of the current situation, losing a James is not important to the Bannerless family, so the importance of Sansa is highlighted.

Under such circumstances, Li Lingyi guessed that old Tai Wen's cunning would definitely not easily agree to the substitution, and maybe he would take the opportunity to propose some other conditions.Of course, as long as it's not too much, then Li Lingyi will accept it.After all, it would be a pity if something happened to Sansa.

So while passing the letter to Casterly Rock, Robb also wrote a letter for the courier to send to King's Landing. Sure enough, old Tywin agreed to change after reading it, but he had to add new conditions.

"New conditions, what conditions?"

In the camp, the generals of several major families gathered together, and when they heard the messenger's words, Robb immediately asked a question.

The messenger glanced at the crowd and said, "In addition to asking the adults to send James back, Lannister also needs... 50 kilograms of food."

"50 kilograms?!"

As soon as the messenger's voice was settled, there was an uproar in the room.

"Crazy?!"

"50, that's too much!"

"Old Tywin had a good idea. If he had the 50, he might be able to defend the city for half a year longer..."

"We can never agree!"

Everyone clearly expressed their opposition, only Li Lingyi and Robb remained silent, the former had a calm face, while the latter frowned deeply.

"And..." the messenger spoke again at this time, and said cautiously: "The time limit they asked for is ten days. If the food is not delivered within ten days, then they would rather not make a replacement, but hang Miss Sansa directly. Die on the wall."

"What?!" Robb was furious when he heard the words, "How dare he!!!"

There was a brief silence in the camp, and everyone knew that since old Tywin had spoken out, he would absolutely dare to do so.

To him, the survival of the family is much more important than the life of a son. In fact, this is normal. If the family no longer exists, then it would be meaningless for the members of the family to live on.

But if you know it, you know that this method of death is cruel enough for a girl, but do you really want to exchange 50 kilograms of grain?No one is happy either.

After all, although the coalition is a coalition, Sansa is not the lady of every family.

She's just Robb's sister, Miss Stark.But for other families, she is just an ordinary girl.And now for this one girl, do you have to sacrifice the interests of all the families in the alliance?The silence of the crowd showed their attitude.

That is unwillingness.

Robb is not stupid, and naturally understands this, so he immediately looked at Li Lingyi, he knew that his "brother-in-law" had the most weight in the alliance.

If Li Ling is on his side, then this matter will have a turning point. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to persuade the other big families to provide food.In fact, even he himself was thinking that if the girl who was going to be hanged was not Sansa, but a child of another family present, then he might not be willing to give food.

This is human nature, and there is nothing to criticize.

"this matter……"

As soon as Li Ling opened his mouth, Stannis stood up and interrupted, "Ivy, you don't really want to give them food, do you? Don't forget, the siege strategy itself was proposed by you! If you give the food now Give them, then we can't spend the first half of the year here!"

Stannis looked serious, obviously guessing that Li Lingyi was going to speak for Robb, and several other families also spoke out at this time.
