290 The crisis of proliferation

The journey was long, and the party had to reach the western frontier first, and from there board a ship to the Iron Islands.

It sounds simple, but it's actually across the entire Westeros.

Therefore, the team was well prepared in all aspects, the axle weight supply was very abundant, a large number of cooks and servants followed the team, and one carriage after another was surrounded by tall and short figures, and the overall speed seemed to be quite slow.

This rhythm is seriously inconsistent with the rapidly changing situation on the battlefield, but in fact, before the team, someone has already rushed to the Iron Islands, and there are also ravens sending letters from that side.

There were a few pirates among the people running ahead, who could prove Lan Li's "identity", so they didn't need Lan Li to arrive, they could actually detect the Iron Islands' attitude towards him, the "son of the drowned god".

It's a pity that the Ancient Dao Mark on Lan Li's wrist can no longer read the thoughts of the Greyjoy Leader smoothly, because as the power seed of the Ancient Dao Seed Evolution continues to spread, his mind reading goals are more and more, and many times he can't "touch" the right person.

But at this time, Lan Li did not focus on the goal of this trip, but sat on the back of the horse and talked softly with another bald fat man riding a horse beside him.

"So, Golden Regiment?"

"Why do you ask, when you already know?" The fat man replied with a sad expression, but his heart trembled very much.

"I want to hear from you." Lan Li said with a smile.

"I swore I wouldn't tell anyone else, so don't embarrass me, my lord."

"If you were really that loyal, you would have bitten your tongue and committed suicide." Lan Li sighed when he heard this, "As for being coerced by me now?" ”

"Bite your tongue? With all due respect, my lord, I don't think it's as useful as hitting a wall......"

The bald eunuch's words pretended to be relaxed, but in fact, his emotions could not be stable at all.

In front of Lan Li, he felt as if he had been stripped naked, no, not only stripped naked, but also stripped naked!

Up and down, inside and out, it seems that there is no secret at all.

So, even though Varys didn't seem to be in any detention at this time, and didn't even look like a prisoner at all, the bald eunuch would rather be locked up in the dark and damp dungeon of the Red Keep than face the understatement of the person next to him.

It was a great irony of his whole life!

It's a pity that no matter what Varys thinks, after the day of the "exposure", he is already involuntarily.

Of course, if it weren't for the fact that there were too many secrets on Varys, and Lan Li would not have been "dug up" for a while, he would not have been dragged out and taken to the Iron Islands, but would have been locked up in a prison waiting for the verdict.

Even though the ability of the psychic moment is magical, it is not just a matter of hollowing out anyone's secrets, human thinking and memory are very complex, even ordinary people have a lot of secrets that they don't want to be known, let alone an intelligence director plus a high-level spy.

In just a few days, Lan Li thought that he had gained a lot.

For example, he learned about the composition of the enemy, what hidden forces they were, who the top leaders were, and the origin of the Varys next to him.

Varys has a strong collusion with a faction in the free trade city-state called the Golden Order.

The Golden Regiment has some impressions in the memories of Lan Li's previous life, I remember that in the last eighth season, he stood on Cersei's side violently, and it didn't take long for him to hit the street, what impressed Lan Li the most was that Queen Cersei wanted elephants, and there were indeed elephants in the Golden Group.

The Golden Regiment is a mercenary group active in the free trade city-state, with tens of thousands of troops, but this mercenary group is not just a mercenary group.

Just like the Second Sons Regiment, which was also active in the trading city-states and housed the second sons who were unable to inherit the family business from all over the country, the Golden Regiment had a different background and had a deep connection with Westeros.

The founders of the Golden Regiment even have Targaryen blood, royal blood!

This is to mention the Yongwang Aegon who has been taken out by Lan Li and damaged many times.

History records that the Targaryen Yong did a lot of foolish things during his reign, but it is recognized that his biggest confusion was to legalize the identity of his illegitimate children in his later years, that is, to recognize the illegitimate children as Targaryen blood and have the right to inheritance.

Lan Li thought that King Yong's maneuver might be suspicious that his heir, Daeron II, was not his own species, and one of his illegitimate sons, Daemon, was also very popular with King Yong, and even King Yong gave him the Valyrian steel sword and black fire inherited from the Targaryen family.

After the death of King Yong, his heir, Daeron II, initially incorporated Dorne into the kingdom by marriage, but the lords and nobles who had been hostile to Dorne for thousands of years resisted.

As a result, some lords thought that since the Targaryen's heirloom sword had been passed to the illegitimate son Daemon, and the first king had legalized the identity of the bastard, then this obviously meant that the heir of King Yong's favorite was actually this bastard son and not Daeron II, so the war called the Blackfire Rebellion, which affected the whole of Westeros, began.

The Blackfire Rebellion was purportedly a battle of division in Westeros, with half of the nobility supporting the Iron Throne and half of the nobility supporting the bastards, and the rebellion was later extinguished, but not completely eradicated.

After the defeat of the lords who supported the bastards, they formed the Golden Order outside of Westeros, and were always obsessed with counterattacking Westeros, and they set off several Blackfire rebellions over the years.

It's obviously another game now.

It's a pity that this "rebellion" was not fully prepared, or the forces behind Varys were very passive in the face of this sudden war, and many of their original plans were disrupted, and they had to appear in advance to "take over"-

Lan Li learned from Varys that even if he hadn't kidnapped Viserys, the poor guy would have been "forced to disappear".

……

Over there, Lan Li kept digging for secrets while he was on the road, and the Far North Land of Eternal Winter far beyond the Great Wall was also not quiet.

A large number of dead and resurrected corpses were revived in the land of eternal winter, and gradually spread towards the human gathering place, and under a strange cold force, many humans who were killed by the dead corpses will also be resurrected afterwards!

The news spread so quickly that the wildlings who inhabited the Land of Eternal Winter were panicked, and the wildlings outside the Fortress were more familiar with the legends of the Strangers of the Ancient Ages than those south of the Great Wall.

And now, the legend has become a reality!

Contrary to what one can remember, the reckless slaughter of the wraiths caused them to expand so quickly that the wildlings suffered heavy injuries and had to rush to flee urgently.

This is a covert and deadly affair that is destined to have a profound impact on the current war situation in Westeros!
