Chapter 0345: Prison Escape Strategy: Demon Mountain Commander
() Night. King's Landing. Red Fort.
Prime Minister's Tower, restaurant.
"Lord Demon Mountain, congratulations on receiving 2,000 recruits today. Those who can ride horses, those who can hunt, those who can swim, those who can fight, those who can use swords and swords, those who can shoot arrows, those who are not afraid of death, those who are ruthless...... You've picked out all these people. ”
"That's not two thousand soldiers. Moshan sighed, "That's two thousand mouths." "With these two thousand soldiers, there are only six hundred people left after the battle, and the Magic Mountain is very satisfied. These 600 veterans who have gone through the baptism of life and death are the real combat power. To make a soldier a real warrior, training is only an auxiliary means, and it must be a war of blood and fire.
"I've heard you've stolen a lot of food in Harrenhal. ”
"There is indeed a lot of food, but there are also many mouths to eat. ”
"Maybe we'll have to import food to the city of Pantos. The little devil said.
"Stannis's navy has blocked the waterways, Lanli's army has blocked the land, and I see that King's Landing has no food supply except for the Riverlands. ”
"Stannis can't stop the smuggling of food, and I think King's Landing is short of food, mainly because Littlefinger is playing tricks. ”
"What good will he do if he does that?"
"He was able to show his importance to me, so that I would not settle accounts with him. "But the little devil naturally didn't say this, he naturally wouldn't talk nonsense about him being framed by Little Finger, let alone a 'smart person' like Moshan who somehow became smart.
"Littlefinger wants to show off his tricks. The little devil said in an uncertain tone.
In this case, if Littlefinger still does this, then he is not smart, he is bad. Magic Mountain said.
The words of the Demon Mountain made the little devil deeply convinced!
"Lord Magic Mountain, can you do me a favor?"
"What's the busy?"
"I'm going to ask you for someone?"
"Who?"
"Bernie. ”
"Bernie?" Demon Mountain glared at the little devil grinningly, but he was wary.
"I've heard that your personal attendant, Bernie, is a particularly ventriloquist who once used his ventriloquist skills to trick through the gates of Riverrun, and then went in to blackmail Duke Horst and extort a sum of money from him. ”
"It's true. "Magic Mountain has to admit it. He wanted to deny it, but the little devil was not easy to fool. Lying in front of him about such a thing would be counterproductive.
"Bernie is your personal attendant, but I didn't see him by your side?"
"Yes, he's not with me. “
"And where is he?"
"Can I not tell you?"
"Why?"
"No why, can you force me?"
The little devil was stunned.
"I'm going to borrow Bernie to rescue Jaime Lannister. The little devil stared into the eyes of the Demon Mountain. He shoved a plate of steaming rabbit meat dripping with golden grease to the magic mountain.
"How can I save it?"
"We have Robb and Edmure who they want to go back to, and the most important of them are Sansa Stark and Arya Stark. I will send a delegation of emissaries into Riverrun with my letters, and talk to them about the exchange of hostages. “
"You don't have Arya Stark on your hands. ”
"Yes, you know I know, but Robb and Edmure don't, and that's enough. ”
"They're not going to talk to you about Jaime Lannister, two daughters for one, only a fool would do that. ”
But there is a fool, and that is Lady Caitlyn Tully.
The Mountain has secretly rescued Eddard Stark, and the Mountain wants Eddard to return to Winterfell and send his troops north to support the Wall, but there is no news or movement to suggest that Eddard did so. The Magic Mountain judged that Eddard Stark was currently in Riverrun, or assisting his heir, Robb Stark, in his sweep through the West.
"You don't know Caitlin Tully, but I know her. I've been living with her for months, and I'm almost falling in love with her, but she might not like me. "I asked the Messengers to negotiate the exchange between Jaime and the two Starks, and I needed a locksmith, a ventriloquist, a debater, and a fisherman who was proficient in boating and water, and who would be able to get into Jaime's Tower at night and rescue Jaime Lannister from Riverrun." ”
"Tower?" said Magic Mountain's skeptical look.
"Yes, Edmure is a gentleman, and he is afraid that we will abuse Sansa and Arya, so he is kind to Jaime, and he did not imprison Jaime in the underground black cell of Riverrun, but house arrest in a tower where the sun can shine through. ”
Magic Mountain looked at the little devil, this guy is a genius-type character, in the original world trajectory, this guy's plan did rescue James, but his luck was not very good, he met Edmure who suddenly returned in the Red Fork River battle, Edmure recognized James, and the two sides immediately drew their swords on the street, Jaime cut Edmure several guards, and the people who rescued Jaime were also killed. In a very tragic street white-knives fight, Jaime was recaptured, and then the good days were completely over, and he was really imprisoned in an underground black cell to suffer. and put heavy shackles on his hands and feet to prevent him from being rescued again and escaping.
"When did you get the news that Jaime wasn't in the Black Cell, but in the Tower?"
"The day before yesterday. "But only you and I know the good news, and I haven't told Cersei either, so let her worry a little more about our Jaime." ”
"Your plan is good, but I'm not going to give Bernie to you," said Magic Mountain. ”
"I solemnly beg you, for the sake of the name Lannister. The little devil said, "Lord Magic Mountain, if you give me Bernie, you will get my friendship." Those who can get the friendship of the little devil will never suffer. ”
"Your plan will fail, and I'm not going to hand Bernie over to you and watch him die. Most of the people in Riverrun know Bernie. ”
"Bernie will be in the midst of the messengers and put on makeup. I've carefully touted my plan, and if there is no chance of rescuing Jaime in Riverrun, my emissaries won't be in trouble. The little devil said.
"Did you promise Cersei to rescue Jaime in exchange for her political support for you?"
“...... It's ......!" the little devil looked at the Magic Mountain. The magic mountain is so powerful, you can guess this.
"You can find a locksmith, a fisherman who knows how to water, a debater who can speak, and you can easily find a burlesque who can easily find ventriloquism. Magic Mountain said. He pushed away the empty plate in front of him, he was already full of food and drink, "Prime Minister, I have to go back to the barracks, Bernie is my squire, I will not send him back to Riverrun to die." ”
"It will work, and I'll give Bernie back to you in its entirety. "Little devil promised.
The Magic Mountain did not believe in the little devil's assurances, and the little devil himself did not believe in his own assurances. The little devil is not easy to fool, and the magic mountain is also not easy to fool.
"Your plan is a failure. “
"Then I'll have to give my father, Lord Raven, and let him order you to give me Bernie. "The little devil showed his killer move.
"Lord Tywin won't approve of your plan, it's too risky, you won't tell Lord Tywin about such a risky plan at all, your plan is not only to get Cersei's political support for you, but also to get Lord Tywin's approval of you, and at the same time, you are also eager to rescue Jaime, kill three birds with one stone, the plan is good, and full of courage, but I won't give you Bernie. ”
The little devil can only watch the magic mountain walk out of the Prime Minister's Tower!
Chapter 0345-2 The Magic Mountain Gains Military Power
In the throne hall, the king sits on the iron throne, the Queen Mother sits beside the king, and the Prime Minister stands to the left hand side of the Queen Mother.
The courtiers and generals will be in place step by step.
At the foot of the seven steps, on the left-hand side, the imperial ministers who had their own conference table were counted.
This was the first time since King's Landing fell into turmoil that His Majesty the King, Her Majesty the Queen Mother, the Prime Minister, the Imperial Minister, and the courtiers and generals of the Ministry had all gathered.
Under the high narrow windows of the hall were two rows of golden-robed guards armed with spears.
Behind the king and queen were twenty red-robed guards.
Queen Mother Cersei prefers to protect herself with the people of the West, and always has been.
The Imperial Magistrate Ilin Pine stood not far behind the King with a gloomy face, he was also a vassal of the West, loyal to the executioners of the Lannisters.
Standing in a zigzag formation at the foot of seven steps, four guards of the Imperial Guard, dressed in white robes and with long swords hanging from their waists, were the first line of defense to protect the King and the Queen Mother.
The four Kingsguard were Ser Laplege Beros Braun, who, during the King's Landing riots, lost the courage to go out again to rescue the other courtiers and nobles, and was finally reluctantly released after the Queen Mother Cersei threatened to remove his white robes.
Sir Malintland, who has no knightly honor, is repugnant for unconditionally carrying out any of the king's cruelty, without the slightest trace of knightly integrity.
Sir Alex Oakcutt, as a young and handsome man, has always protected the side of Messira and Tommen during the riots of King's Landing, and after the escape of the princess and the little prince, he did not return to the church, but has been fighting outside, rescuing many nobles and courtiers.
Sir Mandenmoor, a gloomy and cold man, any good qualities of a knight, was a luxury to appear in him.
Of the only four remaining Kingsguards, three of them are real garbage, and knightly honor or something is a joke on them.
However, it is not surprising that King's Landing Red Keep is a magical place full of liars, politicians, conspirators, and despicables.
The atmosphere in the throne hall today was solemn, because there was a heavyweight who had mixed feelings for everyone, the Demon Mountain.
The Magic Mountain is notorious, but since he entered the city, the turbulent days of King's Landing have been over. The refugees had bread, and the city's garrison was strengthened like never before. Walking on the streets at night, the phenomenon of homicide is almost extinct. In the streets and alleys of the most chaotic flea nests, cases of fighting, robbery and homicide have also plummeted.
The stability and peace of King's Landing are deeply felt by everyone.
This is the change brought about by the Magic Mountain, but the Magic Mountain himself is a famous guy, which makes the nobles' hearts feel weird. If King's Landing becomes more turbulent and bloody because of the arrival of the Demon Mountain, everyone will feel normal and will not feel awkward in their hearts.
With heavy footsteps and a huge figure, the Magic Mountain appeared at the gate of the throne hall. He walked into the hall, carrying a formidable greatsword, and the huge flat-capped helmet was not hideous, but it still made everyone's hearts tense.
The mountain came to the king's throne and faced the four Kingsguards, and he pushed his mask on, revealing a face that was rugged and resolute.
Malintlan's heart skipped a beat, as the Magic Mountain's eyes swept him. When the Mountain left King's Landing, he didn't beat Sansa less. And this violates the precepts given to him by the Demon Mountain.
The Demon Mountain stood in front of the Iron Guards, without saying a word, and his eyes looked at Malintlan, whose back was almost instantly wet with cold sweat.
"Chen Mo Mountain, see Her Majesty the Queen Mother, Your Majesty the King, and Your Majesty the Prime Minister. "The voice of the Magic Mountain is booming, and its majesty is like substance, which is suffocating.
He stood with his head held high, as he had reigned before, and did not kneel.
Joffrey strongly controlled his fear of the Magic Mountain, he smiled, nodded, and unconsciously grasped the gauntlet of the Iron Throne with both hands, feeling the hardness and coldness of the twisted hilt: "The Magic Mountain, you have brought food and troops, so that King's Landing is stable and peaceful, and the untouchables will not dare to riot again, I thank you for coming on behalf of the royal family and nobles, what reward do you want?"
"Your Majesty, the armies of Lan Li and Stannis may come tomorrow, maybe two months later, I hope that His Majesty will grant me the military authority of the city, and I will definitely do my best to keep King's Landing and crush the enemy. ”
"Okay, Magic Mountain. Joffrey waved his hand to stop Mother Cersei's interjection, "King's Landing's garrison, militia, royal family's red-robed army, royal navy fleet, my ministry has authorized you, you have supreme dispatch power. Demon Mountain, you must ensure the safety of King's Landing, and teach me a hard lesson for the rebels. I want you to cut off the head of my second uncle, Stannis, and the head of my third uncle, Ranribaratheon. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty. ”
As the prime minister, the little devil had a stomach to say, but he was also stopped by Joffrey waving his hand. Joffrey believed that the Magic Mountain was the real commander-in-chief, and looking at his big man, terrifying sword, and arms thicker than the trunk of a tree, who could beat him.
Moshan didn't expect to get the command of the army so easily, he was overjoyed, and he was silent on the surface, after he thanked His Majesty the king lightly, he retreated into the queue of courtiers according to etiquette. Some courtiers and nobles immediately whispered their goodwill to him, some nodding, some smiling, some saluting, and a flattering gaze.
After the king authorized the military power of the Demon Mountain, it seemed that he had done all the work for the day, or that the pressure on the Demon Mountain had disappeared due to the retreat of the Demon Mountain into the ranks of the courtiers, and he seemed to have suddenly lost interest in everything: "Your Majesty the Queen Mother, Prime Minister, come on next." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty. Cersei and the little devil spoke in unison.
Above the high hall, the Queen Mother and the Prime Minister had to pretend to be solemn and solemn, and act in a serious manner according to His Majesty's orders.
The Queen Mother looked at the little devil, so the Prime Minister cleared her throat and said, "Sir Baron Swain, please come out." ”
Baron Sven, the bravest man in the riots, led a group of golden-robed guards in and out of the crowd to rescue the king and all the other courtiers. Fupin Chinese
