Chapter 74, Bolton Stannis White Harbor
Fight the Twin Cities.
Everyone rushed to Haijiang City overnight.
While Arthur and the Masters of Sea Frontier were busy helping Robb, the young wolf lord, deal with arrow wounds.
Eddard regained control of the North, ordering Grand Jon Amber, Lady Maggie Mormont, and others to collect the fleeing Northern soldiers.
"How's his injury?"
Seeing Arthur coming out of Robb's room, he didn't have anything to do for the time being, and he didn't know anyone in Haijiang City, so the bored Varian came over.
"There is no danger to life. β
Arthur shrugged his shoulders and prepared to go with him for a bite to eat, Robb had Lady Catherine, and he didn't need to stay in it any longer.
"By the way, Your Majesty, when will they arrive?"
Varian raised his eyebrows: "Probably the day after tomorrow, Hainlikai took some people to the beach to fetch the boat, and she and Anne should arrive tomorrow." β
Haijiang City is very close to Twin River City, Arthur is a little worried: "How many troops do we have now, if the soldiers of Twin River City and the people of the Bolton family come over, can Haijiang City hold it?"
"Including the people of Haijiang City, we now have a total of more than 3,600 warriors, and 800 people is enough to defend this place for two years. Varian said.
"That's good. β
Arriving at the living room of Haijiang City, the Mellister family welcomed Arthur warmly, and Varian had already eaten, so he only drank a small wine to accompany him.
Arthur asked while eating, "By the way, Lord Eddard went out to collect the rout, how did he go?"
Varian shook his head: "There's no news for the time being, I'm afraid it's not good." β
Arthur thought about the current situation.
Although the Emperor and Prime Minister have returned, Winterfell has been breached by Theon, and the north may be controlled by Bolton.
The Twin Cities will be like nails between the Riverlands and the North, and it will not be easy for other Stark-loyal families to come to their aid.
The Greyjoy family of the Iron Islands will not let Ed and Robb return to the north from the sea.
They may be trapped in the Riverlands!
Looking at Varian with a frown, he asked worriedly, "Should we do something to prepare?"
Knowing that the situation was not good, but it was useless to be anxious, Varian shook his head and motioned for him not to think too much: "Wait here for Your Majesty and they will talk." β
Next.
Eddard, who gathered the rout, returned to Haijiang City.
and Grand Jon Amber, Maggie Mormont and others brought back more than 4,200 people.
The three ships that Arthur believed in the Lord of Light and traded with the Church of Lahlo also carried Heinly, Anne, Selena, and Gianna, and more than 200 mercenaries with them.
In the evening, the Fat Emperor also brought Barristan, Ryan, Auguste's family and more than 700 mercenaries to Haijiang City.
"Tywin Lannister, who has taken over the Prime Minister's Tower, has appointed Ruth Burton, the traitor, as the Warlord of the North, and the Riverlands will be under the control of Walder Frey......"
The situation is so bad.
They now have to face more than just Wald Frey and Luce Burton!
And the Lannisters, Tyrell, Greyjoy, and Stannis, who reigned on Dragonstone!
"Your Majesty, don't forget that we can also seek help from the Valley of Arryn. Heinrikai reminded the Emperor who knew the message.
Hearing the girl's reminder, Robert sneered and looked at Robb, who was sitting next to his father: "Son, tell me, has Lady Lyza of Arryn Valley sent troops to help you?"
Robb shook his head: "No." β
"Have you asked them to send troops to help you, the king of the North?" Robert asked, looking at him as he continued.
Robb: "Yes. β
Robert: "You're Lysa's nephew, why don't they send troops?"
Robb still shook his head when he heard this: "I don't know." β
The Emperor snorted coldly: "Then Arthur, you come and tell me how Jon Arryn died!"
Arthur immediately remembered that he had asked Anne to go to the Vale of Arryn and look at the best girl, and she only shrugged her shoulders helplessly, and gestured with her eyes to Heinly Kay next to her.
Well, it must have been the Emperor who wanted Arryn Valley to send troops, and then Heinlikai told the news that Anne had been to Arryn Valley and the death of the former Prime Minister.
Arthur said helplessly: "Former Prime Minister Jon Arryn... It was Madame Lyza and Petyr Berishi who conspired to poison him.
Lord Eddard, you found out that Joffrey and they were not His Majesty's biological bloodline, he knew this for a long time, and you can find evidence, and the current war of the Five Kings will break out, it is all he is secretly fueling the trouble. β
Heinrikay: "Well, chaos is the ladder to the ascent, think about Littlefinger from nothing, to the current Duke of Harrenhal, about to marry Lady Lyza, he does have a good chance." β
"But we don't have proof. β
Ed is still upright, not believing that his wife Catherine's sister would poison her husband, but he has no good feelings for Littlefinger, who betrayed him in the coup d'Γ©tat.
"Go to T*|M*|D's evidence!" Robert's suppressed anger finally erupted, "Do you still need evidence at this time?"
"We're fighting for life and death, and Arryn Valley looks like he's ready to sit back and enjoy it, and you haven't noticed anything is wrong?"
Francis shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, calm down, we can't put down the rebellion alone." β
HΓ€inlikai: "So we still have to fight for the Arryn Valley to send troops, but the people we turn to for help will be changed." β
Ed had a bad premonition.
Hoping that Arryn Valley will send troops, in addition to controlling the young Robin Arryn, Robert can only get the support of his vassals from seeking justice for Jon Arryn: "That's right, I'm going to judge that crazy woman of Lysa!"
"This..."Bullying other people's orphans and widows, Ed really can't bear it.
"That's enough, this matter has been decided, just to tell you, let you take care of your own wife. Robert glared at Robb as he spoke, "Now let's talk about your son's reign!"
Hearing this, Robb, who knew that he had done wrong, immediately got up from his seat and said resolutely: "I am willing to accept any punishment!"
Knowing Robb's military talent for consecutive victories, Ryan hurriedly pleaded for him: "Your Majesty, we need him." β
Robert waved his hand, signaling Ryan, who was about to become the rightful son and had the right to inherit the throne and the Holy Loren surname, to shut up, looked at Robb seriously, and said in a deep voice: "Everything you have will be stripped away, and then go to be the night watchman!"
"But for your father's sake, I will allow you to give birth to an heir and then roll to the Great Wall after the rebellion is put down!"
In this regard, Arthur once again felt that it was indeed his birth that determined his fate.
The fault of the bloody wedding was Frey, but in the final analysis, he violated the wedding first, killed so many northern soldiers, and said that the king's rebellion was just a light sentence to send the Great Wall and then stopped.
After dealing with the internal problems, Robert began to issue orders to the people: "In three days, we will set out in two ways. β
"Ryan, Varian, you and Robb lead 3,000 men to the north to solve Luce Bolton and take back the north!
We'll fight into the Lannister Territory, contain the rebel main forces, and at the same time get the support of the Arryn Valley troops, stabilize the rear and converge in the Three Hills City, and then go straight to King's Landing!"
Ryan looked at the young man who was a little absent-minded and didn't know what to think, and asked, "Can Arthur follow us?"
"No!" said Robert, who heard this, "You wouldn't have fought without Arthur?"
Varian frowned: "But we only have three thousand......"
Robert was suddenly furious: "Are you stupid melons? With Robb with you, you will be afraid that no one will support you in the north?"
Ryan muttered depressedly: "But with Arthur's help, without the support of soldiers, we can ...... one enemy with one hundred enemies."
The alien ghost is the real enemy of all mankind, and if you continue to use cold weapons to cut people down the rebellion, the loss is so great, what is the substantial benefit of winning the war?
For the long term, Arthur wanted to climb the Science Tree, make steel, make gunpowder, and then make guns, and weakly asked, "Can I not go to war?"
Robert didn't even ask why, and he hoped to gain the protection and buff of the Holy Light in the battle, but he objected: "No!"
...... To be continued......
