Chapter 0812: Magic Mountain: Demons or Wise Men

"Prince Isidore, how many men do you need to take Pantos City?" said the Magic Mountain.

"Lord Magic Mountain, my wind blows can take the city of Pantos. It's just that Pantos City and Braavos City signed an agreement that Pantos City can't have its own city garrison. ”

"The Agreement is null and void. Magic Mountain said lightly, "Pantos City is no longer the Pantos City of the past, it needs to make three changes, first: the power of the governor is restored, and the prince is in power, second: the servant market is abolished, because it is actually the real slave market, and third: the agreement signed between Pantos City and Braavos City not to have their own city army is completely abolished." ”

"My lord, as soon as Pantos forms a city legion, the city-state of Braavos will surely come and attack and cut off all trade routes at sea. Braavos Sea King's fleet is too strong, ranking first among the nine free trade city-states. ”

"Braavos dared to attack Pantos, and we met it. ”

"Lord Magic Mountain, Braavos has the most powerful navy in the world, and for the sake of long-term stability, it is better for us to send an envoy to meet the Sea King of Braavos. ”

"No, I don't. Magic Mountain said lightly. He looked at Varys, who had been silent: "Lord Varys, I want you to be Prince Isidore's intelligence advisor, do you decide to stay with Her Majesty or go to Pantos City?"

The eight-clawed spider Varys originated in the city-state of Rees and became famous in Pantos. Illyrio Mopatis, the most powerful governor of Pantos, was a close friend of his fortune.

Varys's gaze swept over Her Majesty the former Queen and the courtiers, and he said, "I obey orders, Prime Minister, and I will go to Pantos to assist Prince Isidore in the stewardship of Pantos." ”

Varys is smart!

Moshan actually didn't ask him for advice, Moshan was giving him an order, but he was polite. But it was a fog, and if Varys didn't obey, he could probably lose his life because of it.

The Magic Mountain withdrew his gaze from Varys's face, Varys was really knowledgeable, but he didn't intend to make Varys feel better, he continued to warn Varys: "Isidore, Lord Varys is calculating, scheming, and good at changing his appearance through makeup, just like a faceless one, but he is better at hiding his heart, if he does anything against the interests of Pantos City, I authorize you to kill him at any time." ”

"Lord Magic Mountain, I know Varys. Isidor was full of confidence, "Lord Varys is wise, the city-state of Braavos is strong, and we need Lord Varys's wisdom and strategy." My thirty-nine years of wandering have also taught me how to observe others, and if Master Varys really has any plot against us, I will not hesitate to kill him. ”

Varys's fat white face rippled into a stiff smile: "The two adults laughed, Varys is a little eunuch, with a little wisdom and some little birds, if I do something wrong, I will accept the punishment, if I make a big mistake, please Prince Isidore cut off my fat head." ”

Magic Mountain looked at Varys' stiff smile and shouted, "Sir Steven Clegane." ”

Steven, covered in blood and carrying a heavy axe, stood at the bow of the ship, and when he heard the Demon Mountain calling him, he immediately ordered rowing, and the Skull headed for the Sea Monster.

"General Donn. The Magic Mountain continued to roll call.

The ship of the pirate boss Don also immediately sailed over.

"General Donn, Sir Steven, you go with Prince Isidore to the city-state of Pantos, Don is the commander-in-chief of the navy of the city-state of Pantos, and Steven is his deputy. If the city-states of Braavos come to provoke and tell their messengers that the agreement prohibiting Pantos from having a navy and a city garrison is annulled, and if the Sea Kings of Braavos want to go to war, then war. ”

"Yes, Lord Moshan. ”

Magic Mountain looked at Prince Ragged and Varys: "Prince Isidore, Lord Varys, once Braavos and Pantos go to war, send a message to Westeros as soon as possible, and my dragon and I will arrive soon, as well as Westeros's naval fleet." ”

"Yes, Prime Minister. The Ragged Prince bowed down with Varys in reply.

"Pedjiko, Motliko, Cyrilco, Angusko, Reginordko, and Rodricko, you lead the Dothraki warriors and Prince Isidor to assist Prince Isidor in taking the city of Pantos and preparing for war with the city-state of Braavos. ”

"Yes, Lord Magic Mountain. The crowd replied in a loud voice.

"Prince Isidore!" Magic Mountain stared at Isidore, "After taking Pantos, will you be able to settle the salaries and food of the warriors of Dothraki and the soldiers of Donn's naval fleet?"

"Lord Magic Mountain, Pantos City is the most concentrated trade transit city in the nine free trade city-states and the Westeros continent, and the city is very rich, whether it is food or gold. ”

"I think it's okay for a short time, but if it takes a little longer, how are you going to solve it?"

"Lord Magic Mountain, the Dothraki can solve their own food and gold needs. Pei Jikou said.

"How to fix it?"

"If Braavos attacks Pantos, the Dothraki will ask the city-state of Braavos for food and gold, and if they don't come to attack, we will go to Rees and Mill and borrow food and gold from them. ”

When the Dothraki say borrow, they actually rob!

"Very well, Pei Jikou, I am very satisfied with your solution. As far as I know, the city-state of Valantis in the southeastern corner of the continent is a very wealthy city-state. There were two parties in the city-state, one was the Tiger Party and the other was the Elephant Party, and the two parties voted annually to decide who would be the consul. The aristocrats in the cities belonged either to the Tiger Party or to the Elephant Party, and these nobles made a fortune from the slave trade to the East, and I was the one who was determined to abolish slavery. The Magic Mountain's gaze shifted to Daenerys' delicate and perfect face, "Pejiko, I appoint you as Kao the Dothraki, and after solving the troubles of the city-state of Braavos, I want you to solve the slavery system of Valantis, dissolve the Elephant Party and the Tiger Party, and the food and gold of the Elephant Party and the Tiger Party are enough for our Dothraki warriors to live a rich life." ”

Pegi was overjoyed, and the Dothraki were naturally fond of plundering: "With the holy oath of the Night Lion, and the holy waters of the Holy Lake as a witness, Pegi swore to follow the Lord to the death, to take Valantis, abolish slavery, and dissolve the Tigers and Elephants. ”

Pegi didn't care about slavery in Valantis, the city-state of Valantis was the only city that connected the slave trade between East and West, and Pegi himself sold prisoners of war to Valantis. - Slavery or something, Pei Ji didn't care as much as his warriors, they were really interested in the food and gold of the Valantis nobles, and the white-skinned women of the nobles.

"Pegi, I know that most of the income of the Dothraki comes from war and prisoners of war, and that you always drive thousands of prisoners of war to the East to be sold as slaves, but now that you don't need to, I will not allow you to do that again. All prisoners of war are valuable labor that can generate sustainable tax revenues for us, give them a free status, teach them farming, animal husbandry, weaving, trade, and then collect taxes every year, so that we can become truly rich. ”

"Pejikao, stop selling prisoners of war into slavery, it's the most costly trade in the world. We are going to the East to turn slaves into labor, not to sell labor as slaves. When we have people on our hands, why can't we manage our own use?!"

"My lord, we don't teach prisoners of war to farm. Pei Ji said suspiciously.

"Farming and animal husbandry, I will. Magic Mountain said lightly, "I will send a bachelor who is proficient in animal husbandry and farming to the Dothrak steppe, as well as a university scholar who can treat all kinds of diseases." The warriors of the Dothraki steppe only need to go to battle, and the rest is left to the scholars. Planting, animal husbandry, weaving, urban construction, I will leave it to the most professional people to guide the commoners and women to do it. Pejikao, warriors of the Dothraki steppe, don't you want to conquer the most prosperous and wealthy city in the East? Pejikao, I want you and the Dothraki to be ready, you have to sharpen your scimitars in advance, and wait for my news that we will be on an expedition to Quells. ”

Quells, a name with magical powers, a place of wealth and prosperity that has become a legend, the words of the Magic Mountain have thrilled the hearts of the warlike and greedy Dothrakis!

Choke!

Pei Ji pulled out his scimitar and slashed in the air: "Lord Demon Mountain, the Dothraki are born warriors, and my scimitar has already been sharpened and can be set off at any time." Pei Ji shouted at the Dothraki fleet: "Warriors of Dothraki, are you warriors or cowards?! Lord Magic Mountain will lead us to the farthest east to attack Quells!"

Quells, a place of legends in the hearts of Dothraki. Legend has it that the city floors of Quells were covered with gold.

The blood of the Dothraki warriors was boiling, and each of them was destined to gallop on horseback from the day they were born. The soldiers drew their scimitars together and saluted the Magic Mountain, their bodies warmed up, and they shouted: Quels!

Compared to Her Majesty's request for them to cross the Narrow Sea to help her claim the Iron Throne, Lord Magic Mountain's words can make their blood boil and yearn for it. The only mercenaries of the Dothraki have ever been to Quelth, and no large legion has ever traveled through the deserted red wasteland to Quels. The opulence and prosperity of the eastern megacity of Quells has always been a most seductive legend in the hearts of the Dothraki people. Quells's abundance is like the brightest star in the night sky. If you compare Valantis to Quells, Valantis is like a firefly, and Quells is the pearl of the night.

A Valantis has already filled the Dothraki with fighting spirit, let alone the great city of Quels!

Moshan looked at Daenerys, whose face changed slightly: "Your Majesty, don't you want to go to Quells again? You are the liberator of the slaves, and so am I, and that's what we have in common. You didn't save any of the slaves in Quells. I invite you to join me in abolishing slavery and building a fair, open, and just civilized world under the guidance of the law. ”

Daenerys' mind was messy, and she couldn't believe that the brutal and terrifying Demon Mountain, who took pleasure in killing, could say such a thing. To put it nicely, Magic Mountain has lofty ambitions, great ideals, just like what she did in Slave Bay, where he wants to free the slaves and conquer the world, but on the other hand, he may have glorified his words in order to seize the highest power.

If the Magic Mountain whitewashes his terrible ambitions with glorified words, then this man is too fearsome. He had a natural ability to stir people's hearts, but if he was serious about abolishing slavery and establishing a new order, he was a rare man of great wisdom.

So, is the Magic Mountain a terrifying demon, or is it a great wise man with ambitions and ideals?

Daenerys is messy!

The Magic Mountain looked at Varys, who had a deep prejudice against the Magic Mountain, and at this time he also showed a surprise that could not be concealed.

The Magic Mountain did not hide his terrible attempt to conquer the continent of Essos, his fluent speech, the power of the people's hearts in a few words, his clear and three-dimensional military layout against Braavos, and the goal of Quells completely led the Dothraki people's enthusiasm for the expansion of the world, all of which revealed the incredible leadership ability and extraordinary wisdom of the Magic Mountain.

This deeply disturbed Varys!

Could it be that the Demon Mountain is really the will of the gods on the ground? But why would the gods choose a bad deeds of the Seven Kingdoms.

Is the Magic Mountain the reincarnation of Asol Ahai?

If not, how could he kill the Night King?

Varys' 'negative preconceptions' about the Magic Mountain are an old building, cracks are showing in the thick foundations of the building, and the buildings on the foundation are beginning to crumble.

"Prince Isidore, let's go!" the Magic Mountain ordered.

Isidor made a gesture, and on his flagship, a horn sounded.

"General Donn, let's go. ”

"Yes, Lord Moshan. Don gestured, and the sound of a trumpet sounded beside him.

Steven Clegane knelt down on one knee in salute to the Magic Mountain, then stood up as the skull horn sounded.

Hundreds of battleships turned together and headed east.

"Pejikao, let's go!"

Pejikao's scimitar was raised: "Dororo Rolloro!" he let out a roar.

The Dothraki scimitars were raised high and shouted together. Amid the cheers of Dororo Ororo, hundreds of battleships and merchant ships turned to the east and headed for Pantos. Half an hour later, there were only the Magic Mountain Fleet, the Asha Fleet, Daenerys' Unsullied Fleet, and the Royal Fleet left in this sea.

The fleet of Magic Mountain consists of four parts: the Redwyne fleet, the Gubler fleet, the Royal Navy fleet, and the Dragonstone Island fleet in the Creganian. This fleet originally had a thousand warships, but today there are less than four hundred. Five hundred warships were burned by Daenerys in the waters off Dragonstone, and more than 100 warships were damaged in this naval battle, mainly the Redwin fleet in the east, which was almost completely wiped out by Asha's fleet.

Asha's fleet also suffered heavy losses in this naval battle, with less than fifty longships remaining.

"Jon, Commander-in-Chief of the Night's Watch!" called out to Jon in the sky, "Are you going back to the North, to the Night's Watch, or are you going to follow your queen back to King's Landing with me?" ”

"You want to bring His Majesty back to King's Landing?"

"Yes, I am the Prime Minister, and I need to take the prisoners back to my king and report to him about this naval battle. ”

"Will your king kill his captives?"

"My king was a blacksmith, and in addition to his kindness and integrity, he was also very good at striking iron, and was good at forging well-made swords and bows. "The answer to the question is not the question, but the meaning is far-reaching. He scanned the crowd and saw that no one thought there was a mystery in his words. In fact, he had already answered Jon's concerns, but Jon didn't hear them. If Varys, Littlefinger, Little Devil and the like were here, they would definitely hear the power of the Demon Mountain's words.

Of course, that can only be understood, and there is no empirical evidence.

"What are you going to do with us, Magic Mountain?" asked Jorah Mormont in a deep voice. He really didn't hear the words that the Magic Mountain had actually guaranteed Her Majesty's safety. The Magic Mountain once clearly said that Her Majesty the Queen is very safe, why, because the king is only very good at striking iron, so who will really be good at managing the government? Of course, only the Magic Mountain! It's just that these hidden meanings are not what the generals are good at.

Daenerys no longer has a capable advisor by her side.

The Imp was taken by Bran Stark, and Varys was taken by King Isidor's Ruins.

Magic Mountain looked at Jorah Mormont: "Jorah, maybe you should go back to Bear Island to have a look." Your family's Valyrian steel sword claw is in the hands of Commander Jon, and if you're bored, ask him for it. ”

"It's the sword my father gave to Commander Jon, and I don't have the right to get it back, and I'm not worthy of the claw. Jorah said. Jorah's military generals still have the backbone, and they are even more loyal to Daenerys.

The Magic Mountain no longer talked nonsense with Daenerys' generals, he looked at Daenerys beside him: "Your Majesty, let's go back to King's Landing first, and then, I will take you to the Old Town School City." Remember, our goal is the same: to abolish slavery, from the West to the East. Salvation, not destruction. The Magic Mountain said to Daenerys, and then he looked up and looked at the sky, "Sheep thief, bow down!"

The dragon flew down from the sky, followed by the black dragon Zhuo Geng, who had been beaten by her.

In the sky, Alyn Martell stared at the Magic Mountain until the Mountain did not sit on the back of the sheep thief with Daenerys in her arms, and the fierce gaze in her eyes gradually eased. Frost's face slowly thawed. She was immersed in her own nervousness and hostility, completely unaware of it herself.

Jon Targaryen saw Arlene's reaction.
