Although the Twin Cities are in sight, it will take a long time to walk.

The Counts—Luce Burton, Rickard Karstark, Grand Jon Amber, and Maede Maggie Mormont—came to the front and marched forward with Robb in their arms, talking to each other.

Although Wald Frey was a vassal of the Tully family, he was always dispatched. Sixteen years ago, during the Usurper Wars, the North, the Vales, and the Riverlands, as well as the Stormlands, all rose up against the Mad King, and the lord of the Riverlands, Duke Horst, summoned Walder Frey to lead his troops into battle, and Wald Frey did not arrive until Robert Baratheon and Eddard Stark joined forces to defeat the Royalists. From then on, the Duke of Horst called the Marquis of Walder Frey 'the Late Frey'.

Wade's Twin River City is located in the Green Fork River, which is deep and fast, and the water is non-stop and noisy day and night. The Frey's power spanned the banks centuries ago, and they grew rich on the expensive fees paid by those who crossed the river.

Two square, ugly but sturdy castles, almost identical on both sides, crossed by arched bridges that have guarded the ferry for centuries. It has towering domain walls, deep moats, and heavy oak-inlaid iron gates. The entrances on both sides of the bridge are located in the well-guarded inner city, with bridgeheads and iron gates on both sides, and the middle of the river is protected by the Weihe Tower.

The Weihe Tower stands in the middle of the arc bridge, and its archery holes, killing holes and iron gates overlook the river and roads. It took three generations for the Frey family to complete the arch bridge.

Everyone finally got closer, and saw that the city wall was full of spears and swords, large bows and crossbows, every pheasant wall and arrow mouth was deployed by archers, the drawbridge had been raised, and the gate had been lowered. The gates of the city were shut, and the latches were fastened.

The walls of the moat, the walls of the Guardian Tower in the middle of the river, were densely packed with soldiers, and it seemed as if they were ready for war with Robb.

With just one glance, Catelyn could see that the castle in front of her could not be taken down quickly.

Great Jon cursed loudly, threatening to use catapults to destroy the Twin River Cities, and then destroy all of them. Count Rickard Karstark glared silently.

"Lord Robb, Lady Catelyn, ladies and gentlemen, such a castle cannot be taken in a short time. "Even if we take it in the end, we will lose a lot of money from the siege." The army that Wader has gathered will not be less than four thousand men, and although we are five times his strength, he has a moat and a strong fortress, and our time does not allow us to engage Wad here. ”

"If we don't have troops on the other side, we can't even surround them," Herman Tauha said depressedly.

Everyone looked at Robb Stark, waiting for his orders.

Robb quietly observed the castle and defenses of the Twin Cities, and he was amazed by the tightness of the other party's defenses and the fortification of the castle. He had to cross the river from here, or the entire Riverlands would fall if it was breached by Jaime. The war will cause great disadvantages to the north, and he already has an idea in his heart, Wade is a guy who puts interests first, and if he forgets his righteousness, then give him benefits.

My father said that people become brave because of fear, and sometimes lies are necessary, and lies can be ...... No loss of honor.

So whatever Wade wanted, Robb had already made up his mind, promised him, and crossed the river.

On the opposite bank, a side door suddenly clicked open, and a wooden plank bridge slipped out of the doorway, pulled by a rope, and crossed the moat little by little, and finally volleyed into the air, and the bridgehead was placed in front of Robb and others. Then, a dozen or so knights rode up to the plank bridge and slowly approached them.

A silver-gray background, the banner of the dark blue twin towers waved in the wind behind these dozen knights.

The old man at the front was Sir Stevren Walder, the heir to the Marquis of Walder, who was in his sixties this year, and the other three knights beside him were his brothers.

The Freys all looked like weasels, and Sir Stevron, who had grandchildren of his own, was especially like an old and tired weasel, but he was very aristocratic and polite.

"My father has sent me to greet you, who is leading this strong team?"

"I, Robb Stark of Winterfell in the North. These adults are vassals of my Northern Stark. Robb hurried forward. He was fully armoured, Winterfell's Icewolf insignia and shield tied to the saddle, and Greywind followed lightly.

The old knight's watery gray eyes flashed with interest, but his mount snorted uneasily and took several steps back, terrified of the wolf. This affected the horses of the other dozen or so people, and the team was in chaos.

Robb scolded Grey Wind, who reluctantly retreated behind his master's horse, but his eyes were still full of aggression.

"Lord Robb, if you would like to go to the city to have dinner with your father, and to make your intentions known, I am sure he will be honored to do so. ”

Sir Stevren Walder's courteous words have caused an uproar among the nobles of the North!

"Your Excellency, you must not go," said Gabbert Glover categorically, "you must not trust Lord Wade so lightly. ”

Luce Bolton said softly, "My lord, if you go to the appointment alone, you will let him slaughter him. He can sell you to the Lannisters, throw you in a dungeon, or cut your throat, whatever he pleases. ”

"If he wants to talk to us, tell him to open the gates and let us all go in and have dinner with him. Great Jon Amber, wearing the Giant's Broken Chain badge, yelled.

"Just ask him to come out, and feast Robb here, in front of everyone on both sides. Young Sir Willis Mandalay proposed.

Caitlin was equally skeptical, and she could see that Stevren Wader was displeased, and that if the Northern Princes yelled any more, Vader's goodwill would be gone.

The opportunity is fleeting.

"Let me go. Caitlin exclaimed.

Lady Caitlin's words caused an even greater uproar among the northern princes, who objected.

"No, Mother, I'll go!" said Robb, firmly. For a while, his young immaturity was almost completely invisible, and only a commander should have the majestic dignity of Shen Xiong. In that moment, Catelyn saw Eddard's shadow.

Stevren Wader was secretly amazed.

Robb is still a teenager, and anyone can see that although he straightens his chest, he is actually still a child.

"Are you going? Are you sure?" said Lady Caitlyn, surprised at Robb's great change, but her worries rose suddenly.

"I'm pretty sure," Robb said lightly, "I'm the highest commander in the army, and this matter must be discussed by me myself to show our sincerity." If anything happens, I'm sure you'll tear down the Twin Cities. Lord Walder won't risk the Twin Cities being demolished. ”

Robb's composure softened her worries, and the vassals' gazes on Robb changed.

At a young age, this courage is convincing.

Luce Bolton remained silent, his thin lips closed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please rest assured, Lord Wade is a vassal of my grandfather, and he will never do anything to me, I believe in his honor. "Unless it's profitable, Robb thought to himself, but there are some things that can't be said explicitly, and once Robb is threatened, he just needs to tell Lord Wald, Eddard Stark, to wait for him outside, and Wald will not dare to do anything to him.

With Eddard Stark's character, he will definitely fight to the end for the heir of the family and the Frey family. Ed has this strength, and he also has this courage and ability.

"I'm sure my father would be happy to have dinner with Lord Robb. "To ensure that we have no ill intentions, my brother Sir Pywin will remain here until your Lord Robb returns safely. ”

"And we will treat Sir Win as a guest. Caitlin said immediately.

Sir Stepren Frey nodded politely: "Madame, rest assured, we will also treat Lord Robb as our honored guest, and we will not dare to be contemptuous in the slightest." ”

Robb kicked the spurs lightly and ran forward, not looking back. The son of the Marquis of Wald and his bodyguards hurried to follow.

At the same time, on the east bank of the Green Fork River at the Cross Inn, the Magic Mountain was fighting with the Burning Red Men of the Bright Moon Mountains, and a Cregan cavalry from Harrenhal was speeding along the riverbank.
