As I said earlier, there is no need to rush to clean up the skinning family.

Unexpectedly, Ryan, who returned to Twin Rivers and led the army south, was about to avenge the death of the Northerners who had betrayed them at the bloody wedding, as well as the hunting and killing of his half-brother.

One man, two horses, three thousand soldiers, six thousand horses galloped.

The sound of hooves roared like thunder.

Under the lazy sun, he went down the King's Avenue and passed through the green mountains and green waters, slowing down and forming a formation to slowly approach the north shore of the Divine Eye Lake.

Because of the legacy that Arthur brought back from the outside of Cyprus, there are many gifted shapeshifters in the north.

Listening to the eagle's chirping, the eagle flew down from the clear sky covered with white clouds, and the shapeshifter who accompanied the army immediately informed the commander Ryan of what he had seen in Harrenhal.

"Your Highness, more than one thousand and one thousand of the soldiers defending Harrenhal belong to the House of Bolton, and they have placed more than a hundred men in front of us, two hundred men on the west wall of Harrenhal, three hundred men on the east side, one hundred men in the rear, and four hundred men as reserves. ”

"The other soldiers and horses are all small nobles, I don't know their banners, about seventeen families, a total of more than 1,900 people, of which more than 800 are arranged in front of us, and the other three walls are more than 200 people each. ”

"They also cut down the fish beams and made more than a dozen catapults and more than 20 giant crossbows. ”

For the largest castle in Westeros in front of him, looking at the dense soldiers on the city wall, Ryan, who had not experienced much siege warfare, felt a little tricky, and couldn't help but sigh: "Luce Bolton is not simple." ”

As the crown prince's aide-de-camp, he was a good partner in the first step, and hearing his exclamation, Lothar immediately understood that he did not intend to attack now.

He suggested, "Your Highness, why don't we set up camp first?"

Ryan nodded: "Let's set up camp first, remember to always be on guard against enemy raids, by the way, Arthur, do you have any good ideas?"

Arthur, who didn't know much about military affairs and often fought wars, but had not been much involved in command, was half-witted and could only shrug his shoulders when asked: "No." ”

"Then listen to my battle arrangement. Ryan smiled.

"No problem. ”

Knowing the enemy's defensive arrangement, Ryan immediately led people to discuss how to attack the city.

He had the most people in the North, then the Valeers, the least in the Riverlands, and none of the people from around Harrenhal, so he had to beware of Lannister reinforcements when besieging the city.

Compared to the busy Ryan, Arthur is much more leisurely.

Having seen the power of magic, Gianna, as a female mage with a talent for magic, also came with the army, also to continue learning from Arthur.

Therefore, Ambrosius also wanted Guinevia to follow.

But fighting is not child's play, Gianna can magic, what can Guinevera?

In particular, Arthur quietly told Ryan that he was almost dragged to Yellow Springs by Miss Windsor on Thousand Faces Island, and immediately politely refused the old wizard's request and sent someone to send Guinevia to White Harbor.

Watching the auxiliaries build the camp and build fortifications, the cavalry rode horses to patrol, and the infantry stood by in battle, and the three knights of Lancelot, Gawain, and Ranmarok beside the boy all felt a little embarrassed by their idleness.

But their prince was teaching Miss August magic.

Ranmarok came to fight to make meritorious contributions, and when he saw that the young man didn't care about the war at all, he couldn't help but speak: "Your Highness, should we find something to do?"

The soldiers around were busy, and Gawain, Lancelot, and Ranmarok stood here awkwardly, and they would feel that they were sorry for sure.

Arthur thought for a moment and said, "I don't interfere in Ryan's military arrangement, I have already solved most of the military logistics, but there are still vacant positions, which of you is willing to go?"

Gawain, Lancelot, and Ranmarok hurriedly shook their heads.

Are you kidding.

They are all warriors who draw swords, and taking over the duties of military logistics and holding a pen is simply torture.

"Your Highness, I want to go to war!" Ranmarok was eager to get a chance to perform, rather than following the prince as a bodyguard.

"I know. Arthur understands that the young man is eager to make meritorious contributions and wants to show more in this battle, "But Lane has a lot of men, and they are just as eager to be meritorious as you. ”

"This..."Ranmarok suddenly understood, only Gawain, Lancelot and himself, and the prince, who did not participate in the discussion of the attack on Harrenhal, really did not have much right to speak, "I'm sorry, Your Highness." ”

Obviously possessing extraordinary powers, insight into the conspiracy to subvert the empire, rescued the emperor and the prime minister in the King's Landing coup, and obtained the support of Old Town to promote the coup d'état in Dorne, and the Church of the Seven seems to have a presence in the power to suppress the Lannisters.

These deeds spread in Westeros, and Arthur went from illegitimate son to prince without any dissenting nobles.

As for Ryan and Varian, most of the nobles don't know about their deeds, and they don't seem to have contributed much to the coup d'état in King's Landing, at most they can be regarded as accompaniment.

But in the end, in addition to the merits, there is also the background.

Ryan and Varian had Francis Arnold, the Legion Commander's grandfather who commanded the Empire's First Legion, and the Arnold Knight family.

And Arthur, whose mother died young, entered the Red Keep as a waiter since he was a child, without any background.

Although he is on good terms with the Starks, Eddard Stark is a soldier with high morals and a sense of honor.

Ryan and Varian never showed up.

But they also played a role in the King's Landing coup, and the emperor did not favor one over the other, and in the original plot, he recognized Stannis as the honest prime minister in line to the throne, how could Ed support Arthur in his bid for the throne?

Looking at the prince who continued to enthusiastically teach Miss Auguste about magic, Ranmarok shook his head, returned to Gawain and Lancelot, and asked, "You are not in a hurry at all?"

Lancelot scoffed: "What's the hurry?"

"Your surname is He'an, Harrenhal belonged to the He'an family before the War of the Five Kings, don't you want to reclaim the family fief?" Ranmarok was shocked by his attitude.

Gawain shook his head: "What if we take Harrenhal back? Is Lancelot rich? Is there anyone? He can keep such a big castle alone?"

Ranmarok was suddenly choked by his words: "You don't even care about the family inheritance?"

Lancelot rolled his eyes when he heard this, and said disdainfully: "You have only seen the surface, but you have not seen through the essence, don't always look at the present, take a long-term view." ”

"What do you mean?" Ranmarlock felt he was pointing, but Lancelot didn't bother to talk nonsense.

Born in a knightly family, Gawain's moral education is qualified, and he doesn't like the utilitarian Ranmaroke very much, and if it weren't for the grace of rescue, he wouldn't even want to talk to him.

Gianna's ability to learn is no worse than Arthur's.

With Arthur as his teacher, Ambrosius' knowledge was quickly digested by Miss August, and now he could only watch the lessons of the two with an embarrassed and rude smile.

Hearing the conversation of the three knights not far away, the old man immediately frowned and walked over: "Ranmarok, do you remember what I told you about the future?"

The knight, who knew the prophecy, nodded.

"Then I hope you have a little patience, and by that time, you will definitely be glad that you made the right choice. ”
