As the weakest of the nine free city-states, Pantos was the most popular at some point.

For example, the heads of several city-states across the continent of Essos are now gathered in the secret chamber of the Prince of Pantos' palace to discuss the battle plan for the attack on Westeros.

"From what information we have received, the plan to call on the Westeros lords to raise their troops in the name of Targaryen legitimacy simply cannot be implemented."

The long conference table was filled with people at this time, dressed and looked different, as if they were from all over the world.

"By all indications, the Baratheon regime has a solid rule over Westeros, and they use their faith to create conflicts, so unless we only use mercenaries, we will not be able to win over people."

The person who spoke was a well-dressed and luxuriously dressed middle-aged man, with short curly black hair, a delicate face, and gold-chained monocles around his eyes.

His words provoked many people around him to nod their heads in agreement, but others expressed disapproval.

"Riverlands are loyal to the Targaryens, they fought for the Targaryens, and as long as I stand up, they will definitely support me!" A silver-haired young man in the corner of the long table said with a confident face: "And Dorne, I will marry Princess Alene of Dorne, we have a marriage contract, and Dorne will support me!" ”

These words caused a middle-aged man sitting on the other side to cough dryly, and said, "Prince Viserys may not know that the bend is completely leaning towards Baratheon, and Dorne-Dorn also intends to remain neutral. ”

He shook his head, a taro on his face, and a girl snuggling next to him had an angry expression on his face.

"How is this possible?" The silver-haired boy was shocked when he heard this, but the seven or eight people at the conference table didn't pay much attention to this nominal alliance core after glancing at him.

"If you look at Westeros, there are only three points that we can exploit." The monocle-clad man continued, "One is the valley, where three lords are clearly on our side. The second is the Riverlands, where our people have come into contact with some of the lords, and a few of them have already moved. The third is the Iron Islands, where—"

Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a big man with a blue beard, who said angrily, "We will never cooperate with the people of the Iron Islands, those bastards have been robbing us of our goods in the Stone Steps Islands, and they don't want to be with us!" ”

"That's right, the Iron People are indeed ferocious, and they have a repetitive temperament, so they are not suitable to be allies." Some people agreed, but others sneered: "Now that Braavos has formed an alliance with Valantis, why can't you Telosi and the Iron Isles-"

"I want to make it clear that we are not in an alliance." Before Bluebeard could speak, the middle-aged man who was taking the girl to the meeting interrupted him solemnly: "Braavos will never be in the company of a slave city-state!" ”

"What are we doing now?"

"Negotiate a joint effort, but this is not an alliance."

"If this doesn't count as an alliance, then ......"

"It reminds me of a bitch who has been a bed slave for more than a decade, and she said she was a virgin the day she served me."

"Haha-"

……

Not long after the meeting, a group of people quarreled, which made the middle-aged man who presided over the meeting full of helplessness, and finally he couldn't bear it anymore in the face of this increasingly chaotic situation, and directly picked up the small wooden hammer on the table in front of him and knocked it hard.

"Silence! We're now in the middle of a combat meeting! ”

No one paid any attention to him, and the monocle angrily tapped hard many more times.

"Valantis' men sent troops to the south of Westeros, and Braavos sent troops to the north of Westeros, this is what we said before!" He exclaimed, "Don't worry, you can't get together!" ”

This had an effect, and the noise in the secret room gradually subsided.

"It can't be said that the entire south, since Dorne is no longer cooperating, then our fleet of Valantis is only responsible for dealing with the Redwin family on Qingting Island." A chubby old man in yellow robe said, his expression looking uninterested: "It's up to you whether you can defeat Westeros or not." ”

After hearing this, the people participating in the meeting looked at him in unison, but did not say anything.

Braavos, Norforth, Kohor, Rollas, Valantis...... There are actually a lot of problems within the temporary alliance formed by the Targaryens' counterattack on Westeros-

Braavos, who opposed slavery, was powerful and domineering, and was very unfriendly to slave city-states throughout the ages, but the nine free trade city-states basically practiced slavery, which made Braavos's relationship with them mostly poor.

Among other things, as the people of Pantos who provided the venue for this meeting, they have never forgotten the war with Braavos decades ago, and Pantos has not had a good time as the defeated side over the years.

On top of that, Valantis, the most powerful of the free trade city-states, was also deeply divided, with the declining Tigers seeing a good time to counterattack Westeros and the relatively peaceful Elephants resisting. However, the people in Valantis believe in the Lord of Light, Rahlo, and under theocracy and coercion, they cannot oppose this war plan-

But he can be passive and slack off, so the old man in the yellow robe said this kind of thing.

Valantis put on a posture of not being able to do anything, Braavos and several other weaker city-states had just quarreled again, which was actually a dangerous situation, but there was an oracle of faith, and the careerists present would not give up this rare opportunity, whether it was for the sake of preaching and making a fortune or expanding their territory, an entire continent was enough to make people's hearts move.

"I know a pirate from the Iron Islands, his fleet is very active in the Jade Sea, we can contact him to see if we can bring the Iron Islands over for foreign aid."

The middle-aged man in monocle pulled the topic to the original point, and spoke again before the others could speak: "The rebellion in the valley has been going on, and those three lords will not be wiped out in the short term, I think this is a good opportunity." ”

As he spoke, he looked at the middle-aged man who was attending the meeting with a girl, and the other person nodded.

"Our initial plan, then, is for the Braavos to land from White Harbor in the North, occupy Carlin Bay, cut off the North from the rest of the region, and use the current rebellion in the Vale to contain the Vale nobles. Valantis, on the other hand, held back the fleet on Qingting Island and kept an eye on Dorne. ”

"It is not advisable for others to escort the Dothraki across the sea, and it is not advisable to attack King's Landing directly, where the royal fleet is guarding, so we initially expect to land in the River Lands, where there are many plains to facilitate the charge of the Dothraki cavalry. ”

He said, smiling, "As long as we successfully transport the Dothraki to Westeros, then this victory is basically ours!" ”

His words made the atmosphere in the chamber much more relaxed, and even a little girl who had been shutting down a smile at this time - although the previous attempts had failed, it did not prevent them from winning, but it was relatively difficult.

If the army is really overwhelmed, then everything is not a problem.

"So when will the action begin?" Someone asked.

"This ......," the middle-aged man in monocle hesitated when he heard this, and then coughed unnaturally dryly, "The Dothraki are resistant to the sea, and we are coordinating, but I don't think it will take long." ”
