Chapter 0455 - The Way of Evil
The Burning King Tower, the commander's meeting room of the Blue Road.
The Devil Mountain and Earl Muton entered, followed by two of their guards.
Randolph Tali stood up: "Lord Duke is here, please take a seat." Earl Murton, welcome. ”
The Magic Mountain does not sit!
Naturally, Muton couldn't sit, and the guards of the two naturally couldn't sit, and more than 20 people stood together.
As the Minister of the Seventh **, Lan Dao Tali knew that the Demon Mountain was coming, and did not come down to the tower to meet him, nor did he send the guards to greet and respectfully invite the Demon Mountain to the commander's conference room, this is Chi Guoguo's negligence!
Deliberate neglect!
Although in fact, the local nobles may not take the Magic Mountain's false position in their eyes, but politically, in terms of position, the Magic Mountain has the power given by this royal power.
"Lan Dao, military intelligence?" Demon Mountain stood and said lightly.
Lan Dao had to stand up, the supreme military governor of the Seven Kingdoms, the Minister of War, was standing, no matter how arrogant and rude he was, he couldn't sit still. The Magic Mountain is here, with the highest title and the highest position, no matter how powerful Lan Dao Tali is, he is also a subordinate officer of the Magic Mountain.
Lan Dao stood up, and his military attendants, several officers, had to stand up.
Military?
The Magic Mountain is also very simple, ask directly about the war.
He can or may not ask, but since he asks, Lan Dao must answer. Otherwise, the Demon Mountain has the right to ask him for his guilt.
"All the best, my lord. ”
The answer, as if there was no answer, did not say a word about any specific military dispositions, strategies and tactics, the castles and territories that had been captured, the prisoners and vassals that had been gained.
The arrogance of the famous Landao is compelling!
Lan Dao disdained to report to the Magic Mountain, and the position of the Minister of War of the Magic Mountain was a compromise between the forces of all parties and a game between the nobles, in fact, Lan Dao Tali thought that he was more qualified to be the Minister of War.
"When will you be able to take all of the Riverlands?"
Moshan's face did not change after touching a soft nail, and he continued to ask, specific to the time.
"Four months, take the whole of the Riverlands. ”
"It's going to be February next year. ”
"Yes, sir. "Lan Dao is neither slow nor slow, neither humble nor arrogant.
"Oh, let me inform you that the Earl of Murton has surrendered to His Majesty King Joffrey, and will go with me to exterminate the Brotherhood without Banners, and that you have captured the Earl's four hundred soldiers and return them to him. ”
Give it back to him! The tone of the command is not discussed!
"Lord Duke, the captured Muton soldiers have been incorporated into the Riverlands Legion, and are fighting the nobles of the Riverlands led by Dickentari outside, and are now fighting near Shitang Town, and when the war in the Riverlands is over and the Tully family is destroyed, I will return the soldiers of Earl Muton one by one. ”
Randolph Tully replied impeccably.
Of course, the Muton soldiers did not go to the front, but were integrated into the cavalry and logistics. A legion of more than 10,000 people, logistics is already the top priority, and a lot of miscellaneous manpower is needed, let alone an army of 20,000. The food needed to feed 20,000 people every day is a huge amount of materials, as well as the transportation of the wounded, food, grass, armor, weapons, etc., all kinds of hard work and dirty work, all kinds of hard work and dirty work, all need to be done by people.
The four Bermudonian soldiers worked as coolies and handymen for the soldiers of the Riverlands, and their status was equivalent to that of servants.
When the mountain and the Earl of Murton entered Harrenhal, they saw several captured Muton soldiers at work: sweeping the courtyard, mending armor, and polishing arrows.
Lan Dao is perfunctory in the magic mountain!
The Magic Mountain stopped talking, stretched out his hand, grabbed Randolph Tali as his chest across the table, lifted it up, used the Count's body as a shield, and slammed it with a loud bang, and Randolph Tali's back slammed against the hard oak table, and the man was almost knocked unconscious. If it weren't for the Count's chain mail armor, his back would have been broken.
The hard oak table couldn't withstand the slamming, the legs snapped, the table collapsed, and the maps, drinks, and teacups on the table were rolling around.
Several generals and guards in the riverbend were all taken aback, and the magic mountain made a sudden attack without warning before making a move, without any verbal threat or displeasure on his expression, and even the Earl of Muton was taken aback.
Several generals and guards in the Riverbend were just about to draw their swords, but Comm of the Magic Mountain obeyed, Langdon obeyed, and Captain Erin and others had already drawn their swords and unsheathed, eyeing them fiercely. The Muton attendants were still in shock, and they did not ease their senses at all.
"Deliver!" Demon Mountain shouted as he lifted Randolph Tali up and held it in the air with one hand.
The force of the impact was still violently reverberating in Lan Dao's body, making him dizzy, and his back bone seemed to have been completely broken, and he couldn't breathe in pain.
“...... Your Excellency......" Lan Dao snorted, but he couldn't say anything to beg for mercy after all, and he still had a bad breath in his heart, 'The Demon Mountain drove away his soldiers and dissolved the marriage between Dickon and Elano,'...... Lucastali ...... Command the logistics ...... Assemble the Muton soldiers...... Leave it to Lord Moshan ....... ”
"Yes, my lord!" said General Lucas immediately, he glanced at the fierce demon mountain, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and hurried downstairs.
"Loot the belongings of Nuquan Town, and take out the antiques, gold and silver ornaments that your guards have stolen from the house of Earl Muton. The mountain lifted Randolph Tali upward, and the Count's head was so groggy that it almost stood against the high ceiling.
There are five tall towers in Harrenhal, and the rooms are all very large enough for real giants to live in.
"Yes, sir. Randolph Tully tried to make his breath smoother, "Bachelor of God, count the belongings of Nuquan Town and the belongings in the Muton Fort, and hand them all over to Lord Magic Mountain." ”
"Yes, Lord Earl!" the Bachelor's frightened little eyes glanced at the Magic Mountain, at the guards behind the Magic Mountain, at Earl Muton and the Murton Squire, and went with two apprentices.
"Randolph Tully, don't play any prevarication, falsehood, perfunctory, or deception in front of me, one is one, two is two, I like to be simple and clear, one step at a time!" exclaimed Magic Mountain.
The sound reverberated in the conference room, for a long time, and the power of drinking was terrifying.
"Yes, sir. "Lan Dao was hanging in the air, and his chest was grabbed by the magic mountain, as if he had buckled an iron hoop.
"How's the situation with the Brotherhood of No Flags?"
Magic Mountain is the highest military commander here, and when he asked, Lan Dao had the responsibility to cooperate with the answer.
“...... My lord...... Just after a message from the raven, the Redwyn brothers encountered a small group of Brotherhood bandits without flags in the noble heart and captured two of them, one of whom claimed to know the truth about the murder of Duke Tywin. ”
"Duke Tywin killed?" said Demon Mountain. The sound shook everyone's ears.
The first time Earl Muton and his attendants followed a fierce man like the Magic Mountain, they were not used to it, and they had never had a similar experience before, and they were all frightened.
"Lord Magic Mountain, the captured bandit said this, maybe it's a lie, maybe it's the truth, that guy wants to be paid in exchange, I don't know the specifics yet. ”
"Believe in me!"
"The letter was on the table, my lord. ”
ComWarner finds the letter from the collapsed table trash and hands him to the Magic Mountain. Moshan took it, read it, and put the letter in his pocket.
"Hmph!" As soon as the magic mountain hand let go, Lan Dao Tali fell from the air, and with a bang, his calf hit the stool, almost breaking his bones, and with a bang, his back fell to the ground, and the ground was a stone slab, and the pain made Lan Dao breathe and suffocate again.
"Elano Muton is my adopted daughter, and Count Murton is my married family, and he is no longer loyal to the Tully family, nor does he serve the Stark of the North, but like me, His Majesty King Joffrey is the only true king to whom he is allegiated. In my capacity as Minister of War, I formally order you that no army under your command shall disturb the town of Nuquan. “
“...... Be...... Adult ......"
"The youngest daughter, Elano Mutton, and Angei Cregan have been married the night before, and Ilano, who is already Lady Angay, tell your son Dickentari to stop thinking anything wrong about Lady Ilano. Otherwise, I would break his spine and make him unable to stand for the rest of his life. ”
The Demon Mountain condescended, and spoke of Chi Guoguo's threat with a categorical command. The latter words are not for the Minister of War, but purely for street hooligans.
Lan Dao was shot by several generals and guards together, slowly helped up, and slowly sat on the stool, he stared at the magic mountain, his face was blue, his chest rose and fell, his breath was short, and he didn't say a word.
Harrenhal. Afternoon.
Muskon's 1,000 cavalry mixed regiments, and more than 500 light cavalry from Magic Mountain, set off from the long gate of Harrenhal, and the team formed four columns: Magic Mountain, Murton, Julie, and Angel each led a column.
For the first time, Muton saw the style of the Magic Mountain, which was famous for its fierce evil in the Seven Kingdoms, and had a good conversation, the clouds were light and the wind was light, and when Randolph Tali deliberately shirked with rhetoric, the Magic Mountain immediately took action, without any drag, and directly beat the famous general of the Seven Kingdoms, Landau Tully, which frightened Count Muton fiercely, and at that time, he thought that the Magic Mountain was going to throw the Earl out of the tower in a rage...... Smashed into meatloaf...... In that case...... So things go bad!
Ba Demon Mountain, style hooligan, worthy of the name!
Any cunning, false, fake, and trusting in front of him, it seems that as long as he senses that the other party is playing tricks and is not real, he will speak directly with his fists.
Lan Dao Tali, who had 20,000 heavy soldiers, was smashed hard by the magic mountain on the conference table, and any problem was solved immediately, Earl Murton originally thought that it would take a lot of words and bargaining to finally get back some of the antiquities at home, a small number of soldiers, about a hundred people, but the money, things, and people were all the same, and they were all returned clean in the first time.
Earl Murton was also a very experienced nobleman, and it was the first time in his life that he had personally experienced a vicious person who acted like this. His attendants, following him, walked out of Harrenhal, their eyes still falling on the Magic Mountain.
It was the first time they had seen such a vicious adult! Before, they had all heard of the notoriety of the Demon Mountain!
It's better to be famous than to see it in person!
suddenly turned his face, and he beat him with a shot, and there was no aristocratic etiquette, glory, dignity, forbearance, and leeway.
Leeway!
Yes, especially leeway!
The tradition of leaving room for each other in case of trouble between nobles is completely absent here in the Magic Mountain.
Harrenhal is about 300 miles from the noble heart.
Travel through the Magic Mountain to get acquainted with and learn about the noble heart.
The noble heart is a high hill in the land between the rivers, and it is said to be a hill, but it is actually a mountain-like highland. All around is a flat river, and a high mountain rises abruptly in the middle.
Legend has it that this is a sacred place for the children of the ancient forest, where the children of the ancient forest gathered to pray, resolve disputes, uphold justice and goodness, and have a noble heart.
At the top of the hill, there are 31 wooden stumps lined up in a ring, and each stump is very wide enough to be used as a wooden bed for children.
The top of the hill is a flat land, and because of the high terrain, anyone who approaches this high hill from below will be easily seen by the people on the mountain. Therefore, sneak attacks and lurking approaches and the like do not exist at all for noble hearts!
The people of the neighborhood generally avoid this place, and those who pass by take a detour, and it is said that it is haunted by the ghosts of the children of the forest who were killed by the king of Andal, Errig.
But the Magic Mountain knew that it was not actually a ghost, but a real dwarf witch of the forest who didn't know how many years she had lived.
The Brotherhood of the Banners is a guerrilla civil 'justice' organization, often broken into pieces, and broken into pieces at any time, and they have a secret point of contact with each other, or when they lose contact with each other, what if the brothers want to find the leaders such as the Lightning King?
Magic Mountain has an understanding of this point of contact for the Brotherhood Without Flags, and when Randolph Tali says that the Redwin brothers have encountered a small group of Brotherhood Without Flags here, Magic Mountain immediately knows that what Randolph said is true. If you want to arrest the Flagless Brothers, just come to the noble heart, as long as you find the 'ghost' of the noble heart, if the world plot does not affect this detail, then the magic mountain knows that the witch of the son of the forest lives in a tree house here, and the son of the forest 'witch', who has lived for an unknown number of years, as long as she is happy, she will tell you what you want to know.
Witches have their own subtle dark magic, and it's easy to pry open a witch's mouth, as long as you have good wine with you and a singer who can sing all kinds of songs. Among the members of the Brotherhood Without Flags is a seven-stringed Tom, who is responsible for maintaining the most pleasant relationship with the 'witches' of the Children of the Forest, and the secret is his singing voice and his lyre.
As long as Tom Seven Strings is around, it won't be difficult to ask anything about the Lightning King.
Grim Hill and Earl Murton marched with the mixed cavalry of the Cregan Light Cavalry and the Murton's Cavalry Regiment, and marched towards the noble heart.
Since Redwin had captured two Flagless Brothers, one of whom wanted to trade information for wealth, Magic Mountain decided to give the traitor brother a lot of money.
The team set off and set up camp before dark. After the Magic Mountain and the others had dinner, Count Morton saw that the guards of the Magic Mountain were arranging the saddles for the Magic Mountain, and the guards and the two light cavalry generals were also preparing for battle.
"Lord Duke, are you going to fight tonight?" Mouton wondered.
"No, my lordship is waiting for normal patrols and rest tonight, and I will ride out with Clegane and will be back soon. ”
"When will you be back?"
"Before dawn!"
On the magic mountain, the Red Smoke Beast, a military whistle, this iron whistle thing Earl Muton had never played, the voice was sharp and high-pitched, and the Clegane cavalry mounted one after another, about three hundred horsemen, galloping, and disappeared into the night, seeing that Earl Muton opened his mouth and could not close, like a thirsty fish on the shore!
