338 King's Landing Situation
Traversing the war-torn riverlands led to King's Landing, but instead of heading directly into King's Lands, Lan Li temporarily camped in an abandoned village outside King's Landing.
As the capital of the Seven Kingdoms, King's Landing has a very large population movement, and it is not and cannot be closed for a long time, so Lan Li was able to meet his intelligence agent Wenda in the city outside the field, but the information from her mouth was not very optimistic.
"Ten days after King Robert's assassination, the new king has been crowned by the archbishop." Wen Da, who hadn't seen her for a long time, spoke softly, and there were not obvious colored lines on her face, which were special beings bred by the seeds of power.
"Now there are a large number of soldiers stationed in the western border in the city, and the Red Fort is also under high martial law, we can't find out the specific situation, but we know that people are constantly being caught in the flea nest, and Commander Samwell of the capital garrison is also under control."
Lan Li frowned when he heard this, so he grabbed the wooden wine glass on the table and took a sip of the fruit wine, feeling the sweet and bitter taste of the wine soaked in his lips and tongue, and he was not in a good mood.
The intelligence system that was once set up in the Riverlands has been secretly developing in King's Landing, and no one knows about it. And when he was the Minister of Justice in King's Landing, because of his scorching style, there were not many forces close to him, so in King's Landing, the closest relationship with him was not only the golden-robed commander who supported him, but also the "gangster" that formed a scale under the command of Lan Li.
The gang that survived in the slums of King's Landing was managed by Davos, an old acquaintance, the Onion Knight, and the effect was good, at least the security situation in the flea nest was significantly improved, and the order of the entire underground world in King's Landing was no longer chaotic...... Overall, King's Landing benefited from this.
However, if you don't know the inside story, I'm afraid everyone will think that the emergence of this special organization is the minions that Lan Li himself has benefited from.
It was nothing in the past, and now that his brother King Robert is dead, the situation is obviously not good, and it is not surprising that his minions are being targeted, but it also seems to prove that some people are acting as thieves.
"Duke Tywin of the Lannisters became the Prime Minister, and the little King Joffrey was too young to rule, and now Queen Cersei is regent." Wenda's debriefing continued, stemming from the unique changes in her body, and she seemed to be better at gathering intelligence.
"Jon of the Vale. Duke Arryn refuses to rush back to King's Landing, perhaps discovering something exceptional. The Duke of Metz of Riverlands was also confined to the High Court and did not participate in the coronation of the new king. ”
"So King's Landing is basically controlled by the Lannisters right now?" Lan Li asked softly, sitting in the humble manor house, the dim candle light quietly dispelled the darkness of midnight, and shrouded his figure quite gloomily.
"Yes."
Wearing a hooded black cloak, Wenda replied, "There are different voices in the capital garrison, and the civilians in the city are very resistant to the Lannisters, but the Lannisters have troops stationed and they haven't caused much chaos. ”
"Where is my brother buried?"
"At the Red Fort Cemetery."
"What's going on with Tob now?"
"They are still in charge of the affairs of the Holy Light Warrior Order, with the support of the church, and no one has embarrassed them for the time being."
"Where's Stannis?"
"Lord Stannis was not reprimanded, but was secretly confined to the Red Keep......"
……
Quietly listening to the information that was difficult for ordinary people to obtain, Lan Li's brows furrowed more and more.
If there was some uncertainty before, now he is very sure of the truth of the matter. However, although he had already moved forward at full speed after realizing that something was wrong, the long distance still made him rush for a long time, and the other party had been prepared for a long time, and even at this time he felt that he was trapped in passivity.
King's Landing and the Red Keep are completely controlled, and the Lannisters even have hostages-
Apparently the imprisoned Stannis would not have thought of why this was happening. But Lan Li understood it, and it seemed that he was too sharp, which scared the other party into rebellion.
This situation is obviously absurd, but there is no other plausible explanation. However, under normal circumstances, who would have imagined that such a thing would happen.
But now is not the time for self-pity, how to solve the current troubles is the main thing.
Raising his hand to signal his intelligence leader to step back and rest for the time being, Lan Li absentmindedly held the wooden wine glass and took a sip of the liquid in it.
was overwhelmed by carelessness, and the first consideration at present should not be revenge, but remedy. At the very least, the dead cheap big brother can't be left alone, and the imprisoned Stannis is also in dire need of rescue.
The former is a trouble, because the journey time is too long, and there is no way to simply resurrect the body, Lan Li has communicated with the spokesperson of the Seven Gods on his wrist about this matter, and the other party claims that he can use the means of reincarnation, but he must obtain the corresponding bones.
The latter is equally difficult, trying to rescue the captives from the heavily guarded Lannisters, unless they have the ability to kill seven in and seven out of thousands of troops, but obviously Lan Li can't do this-
Because of the changes in King's Landing, Lan Li changed his thinking and mobilized the werewolves around him, the number is not too many, but there are also a lot, there are nearly three hundred.
If it is used well, this force can achieve the effect of 3,000 or even 30,000 human troops, after all, monsters are still different from normal people, not to mention pure combat effectiveness, the degree of deterrence and intimidation of the enemy is not a level.
However, using them to fight each other in the open area may work wonders, but it is obviously impossible to use them to attack the city.
Werewolves have strong vitality, there are no weaknesses on their bodies, and they will not die on the spot even if they are shot through the head, but if they are burned with fire or bleed too much, they can still be erased, and at the same time, according to Lan Li's observation, werewolves can also get infected wounds or get sick.
Therefore, Lan Li can't be cautious about the use of this power, but apart from werewolves, the external power he has is only five hundred iron people.
Considering other factors, it may be possible to mobilize more of the fighting power of the Iron Islands, even not limited to the Iron Islands, but this is a decision that is fraught with uncertainty and is destined to take a long time.
"We still have to find a way from the special forces."
Pinching the wine glass, Lan Li thought to himself silently.
The mark of the Seven Gods on the wrist is very strange, but except in some cases, the only way to use its power is to be very close to the target, and the scepter attached to the arm, even if it has an infinite future, cannot be used for the time being.
Overall, with his current ability alone, it seems that he cannot run amok......
But what will the enemy think now?
Thinking about this, Lan Li gradually had some ideas, and when a news came from the north the next day, his idea was even more likely to be used-
The spies came to report that outside the Great Wall of Northern Desperation, there were traces of strange ghosts!
