Because of the flames, the Lannisters kept resting until midnight. The dense forest was gone, replaced by ash and residual heat.

It was not until the next morning that the Lannisters began to march, and this time every soldier was silent and in a heavy mood. After the baptism of fire, they are now looking forward to revenge.

At this time, the soldiers who carried out the fire attack in Harrenhal had already withdrawn, and brought back the news of the success, and the young soldier named Luke Kennan, who was the first to set the fire, also reported Berry's hesitation and almost missed the plane.

As soon as Li Ling heard this, he promoted Luke's position by two levels and made him the captain of the team, but he didn't say anything to Berry, didn't accuse, and even asked Luke to keep this matter a secret and not spread it around.

Although the latter was a little surprised, he still agreed.

Regarding this matter, Li Lingyi was slightly disappointed in his heart. Originally, he thought that even if Berry wavered, he would be able to overcome the task and complete the task. But the result was different, if it wasn't for that Luke, it was very likely that this perfect fire attack would have failed because of Berry's hesitation, and this was also something that Li Ling couldn't accept.

He can fail because of the disparity in strength, but he must not allow his subordinates to fail due to negligence or some other personal reason. However, the reason why he suppressed this matter was also because Berry was the patriarch of the entire family.

The earliest foundation of the entire Flagless family was the Flagless Brotherhood, and these people have now become generals and have a deep affection for Berry. If Berry were punished, it would most likely cause discontent among these generals, which would be very fatal in the run-up to the Great War.

In addition, he himself trusts Berry very much, so he will not deny all of the latter because of this time, after all, Berry is still quite powerful in internal affairs, and it is a big deal not to let him go out to fight in the future.

But in any case, this fire attack was successful, according to the statistics of the soldiers, the opposite side lost at least a thousand people, although the tens of thousands of troops could not move, but at least the opponent's spirit was severely defeated.

As for the so-called revenge, Li Lingyi doesn't care about it, and even likes it very much. Because revenge in a way implies impulsiveness, and impulsiveness obviously does not lead to good results. Especially as the other party is the besieging party, as long as he attacks impulsively, then Li Lingyi has prepared a complete set of counterattack plans, and definitely let them understand what the routine is.

And Berry also took the initiative to find Li Lingyi and admitted his mistake.

"It's also my lack of consideration. He sighed at Berry in front of him, "But it's nothing, the next battle is the time to put your skills into play, I hope you don't disappoint me again this time." ”

"Don't worry about it this time. Berry nodded earnestly, his lips pursed, "I will definitely not hesitate again this time." ”

Patting him on the shoulder, Li Lingyi also came to the city wall and looked into the distance. Now everything is in place, just waiting for the Lannister army to arrive.

It was a decisive battle, understood on both sides.

If Li Lingyi can win, then the Lannisters will definitely not have the strength to crusade again in the short term, and can only watch Harrenhal develop bigger and bigger. At that time, the attitude of other families may change, no, it will definitely change.

It is conceivable that now every family is waiting and seeing, and it is not sure whether Li Lingyi, the new nobleman, is strong, or the old overlord Lannister is more fierce. Whichever side wins, these nobles will get close to whichever side. Moreover, the Stark family in the north has not given up the attack, and the Stannis in the south is also eyeing it.

By defeating Harrenhal, the Lannisters proved that the Iron Throne was secured. If it can't be defeated, the "Rebellion of the Five Kings" will not end, and the entire continent will still be in turmoil.

Finally, an hour later, the Lannister's army appeared in the sight of the Harrenhal defenders, and the black pressure was like a black cloud covering the sky, slowly pressing over.

It can be seen that in addition to tens of thousands of soldiers, there are dozens of supply vehicles, and it is conceivable that the Lannisters are prepared for a protracted war, and there must be a lot of ballistas like last time.

The army stopped a kilometer from the walls and set up camp, not fearing a surprise attack. In fact, it is true that Li Lingyi could not go out of the city to attack, after all, there were too few soldiers. If there can be 30,000, no, 20,000, then he dares to try to arrange a wave of serial ambushes.

After all, he has been in the Three Kingdoms World for so long, and he is not as good as Zhuge Liang and others, but he still learned a lot of group battle tactics and sneak attack ambush tactics. But now there are too few people, so they are not needed at all.

As for the secretly developed catapult, Li Lingyi naturally wouldn't stupidly take it out and use it now, it is a secret weapon, and it must be used at a critical moment, which can not only destroy the opponent's life, but also destroy the opponent's psychological defense, which is the correct use of the big killing weapon.

Using it now will only startle the snake, maybe people will change the way of playing in order to save troops, and the gains outweigh the losses.

At this time, at the tent that had been erected, Jaime and the little devil looked at the castle from afar, and each other looked quite serious.

"Ivy Crane... I don't know how he is going to defend the city. Jaime said, "I'm afraid there is some conspiracy, and we must be careful." ”

"There must be intrigues, and we, as the besieging side, are already at a disadvantage. And—" The little devil paused, turned his head to look at the soldier behind him, and said, "And the current soldier is not in very good condition. ”

"Bad shape?" Jaime was a little surprised, "Don't you see how high the morale of these soldiers is?"

"The upswing is the upswing, but the upswing is a bit too much. The little devil sighed, "Now they are all very angry because of the fire, and once they start to attack the city later, I am afraid that they will rush up desperately, and they will not even pay attention to orders." ”

Jaime frowned slightly when he heard this, "Won't it?" After speaking, he took another look at the state of the soldiers, most of them gritted their teeth and scolded their father and mother, and there were indeed some precursors of losing control.

"Hehe, I'm afraid this is also a ploy of that Ivey. The little devil smiled, "This enemy is really terrifying." ”

"What then, won't you attack?" asked Jaime.

"Of course not... Just drag on as much time as possible to slow down everyone's mood a little. After all, we brought enough food this time, so we don't need to rush to make a quick decision. The more anxious we were, the more we fell for Ivey's tricks. ”
