Chapter 144: Dragon Egg Scales
The corners of Lynn's smiling mouth quickly converged, and his expression began to be solemn.
"You said the dragon eggs are on Westeros?"
Ali Baba said with burning words: "Yes, my lord, in a canyon covered with ice and snow and shining with a pale blue light, there lies a dragon egg, the size of a bucket, and its surface is wrapped in pale golden fish scales, shining with a strange light. ”
Lynn knew that the only remaining dragon eggs on the continent, including the three dragon eggs that Daenerys had obtained in Essos, were born by dragons 10,000 years ago.
Since the last dragon tamer of the House of Targaryen, the hair corrupted by the dark god is gone, not only have all the dragons died, but no one has been able to inherit the dragon tamer's magic, so these dragon eggs have become fossils.
Daenerys is also the first Targaryen heir to possess golden blood after 10,000 years, and has the power to awaken the magic dragon so that the true dragon can soar into the sky again.
Listening to Alibaba's dictation, Lynn had a strange expression.
"Where did you hear this from?"
"A Shadowbinder. ”
"Shadowbinder?"
Where they came from is unknown. However, Melisandre the Red Robed Lady is from Asha, near the Shadowlands, and the Shadowbinder uses the shadows to use magic for her own ends.
So, it is likely that they originated in Asha.
Of the many occult people active in Asha, none other is the Shadowbinders, who cover their faces with lacquered masks. They dared to leave Asha alone and advance towards the shadowy lands of the upper reaches of the Ash River.
But these are not the point, the point is that the dragon eggs born by the dragons 10,000 years ago were originally piled up in Yaxia, that remote and magical place.
However, the location described by Ali Baba is clearly outside the north of the Great Wall in the north.
Lynn asked, "How do you conclude that this news is really credible?"
Ali Baba smiled, and pulled out a flat stone from the wide cuff, the stone was grayish-white, looking very old, and the traces of time were clear at a glance.
Lynn frowned, "Fossils, you're not going to tell me, you still know archaeology, are you?"
"No, my beloved master," the wrinkle on the traveler's face soothed, and a smile broke into his brow, as he flipped the flat fossil over to the other side and held it aloft. "My lord, look what kind of ...... this is?"
Lynn took a closer look.
The flat stone was flipped and held high in the air, and in the bright light of the chamber, a stream of golden scales covered it, and within the scales, there were lines like black silk threads, which were engraved in twists and twists.
Lynn thought of something and exclaimed in surprise.
"It's ...... Maps?"
"That's right," Ali Baba bowed slightly, "my wise master, this is a map engraved on the scales of the skin of a dragon egg, and it can be inferred from this dragon scale that it will also be a golden dragon's egg." ”
What the!
Golden Dragon!?
Hanniu Guftava and the old butler Alfred, who were present, couldn't help but breathe quickly when they heard this, and their two pairs of eyes looked at the scale fossil in Ali Baba's hand, unable to hide the heat.
Lynn tried to suppress the excitement in her heart.
Because he knew that the old traveler had the ability to identify the authenticity of the treasure map, this dragon egg scale map was almost certain that it was true.
Lynn stood up, her eyes full of ambition.
"Gather an army at once, and I'm going north myself. ”
Lynn's army began to mobilize intensively, and after the Battle of White Harbor City, there are now more than 16,000 troops who have begun to be assigned garrison tasks, and White Harbor City and Fishing Village Harbor, the Three Sisters Islands, the three places are connected by waterways.
Lynn dismissed all the former navy of White Harbor City, let Rooney of Manchester United garrison White Harbor City, and re-recruited a group of navy to patrol the three places regularly.
After the reorganization of all the infantry and archers, the army strength reached 8,000 men.
They will be divided into eight mixed Tiger Battalions, responsible for the garrison of the three territories of Lynn.
Among them, the 7th and 8th battalions were reorganized into the field battalion of the Tiger Regiment.
Among them, the 7th Field Battalion of the Tiger Regiment, which is now known as the commander of the Northern Sweeping Army and the commander of the cavalry of the Xiao Cavalry Regiment, is assigned to Shi Fu.
The families who began to be dissatisfied with Lynn in the whole of the north and refused to surrender began to sweep and sweep the war.
The 1st and 2nd Battalions of the Tiger Regiment were stationed in White Harbor City, and Giroud, the former commander of the Heavy Infantry Regiment, served as the commander of the White Harbor garrison.
The 3rd and 4th Battalions of the Tiger Regiment were stationed in the Three Sisters and the Fishing Village Harbor Castle to assist in the expansion of local production, and the garrison was commanded by a young general promoted by Lynn from the former Heavy Infantry Regiment, De Bruyne.
The 5th and 6th battalions of the Tiger Regiment need to be taken by Lynn to the nearest city of the Great Wall in the North, the last Hearth, after a short period of rest, in case the Night's Watch Legion is broken through the defense line by the wildlings and the Great Wall is in danger, and the second line of defense in the north can be established as soon as possible.
Duncan the Tall is currently reorganizing an expeditionary force, consisting of the Heavy Cavalry, the Light Cavalry, and the 8th Battalion of the Mixed Tiger Regiment, which have been incorporated into the Templar Order.
This is a sufficiently elite force, and the number will reach three thousand.
The task is very simple, escort Lynn all the way to the outside of the plug, and complete the next operation that Lynn is bound to take the golden dragon egg from the outside of the plug.
In her study, Lynn summoned the only two of her current clerical advisors, the old Smail Hill and the old butler Alfred.
"As soon as this army moves, the problem of food shortage will appear, the grain plundered in the river land is supplied to the current huge army on weekdays, it is a little reluctant, and now I am leading the army to the north, and Shifu will also start to clear the major families in the north, and the burden will be a little unsustainable. ”
Lynn was on an old desk and chair in the study, with a sad face.
With Master Hill here, Alfred didn't plan to speak first, which was a sign of respect for the Bachelor from the courtier's butler.
Although Old Master Hill didn't know what the Lord was going to do on the side of the Great Wall, as a worthy Bachelor, he knew that there were some things he didn't need to know.
"My lord, the supply of grain in the north is indeed a little tight, but it is about to be harvested this season on the Three Sisters Island...... Potatoes, coupled with the development of the Dorne Sea Trade Road, it is not difficult to survive this season with a situation of purchase for the time being, since you have handed over all the harvest wealth of White Harbor City to your subordinates to manage the expenses in the territory, and your subordinates guarantee that with these 3,600 gold dragons, I will never let the inhabitants of the territory and the soldiers of the lord freeze and starve. ”
Lynn nodded, "You said well, money should be spent, you don't need to deduct and search too much in financial matters, you not only have to buy a large amount of food for the present, but also prepare more for the future." ”
Old Master Hill was actually very bitter when he heard Lynn's words, which meant that he, the lord, estimated that in the near future, he would have a larger army than he is now.
The old bachelor was bitter in his heart, but his face was full of promises: "Don't worry, my lord, I understand that the matter of reclamation and agricultural reform, if necessary, I will let your garrison cooperate with me, and I will never let my lord down." ”
Looking at the solemn face of the old Bachelor Hill, Lynn patted his shoulder, which was a little slumped due to old age, full of gratitude.
For an old bachelor who graduated from the school city and is familiar with management affairs, it is not a happy challenge to meet an enterprising lord like Lynn?
Old Maester Hill thought of this, and looked at his mottled and wrinkled palms.
I can't help but sigh how good it would have been if Lord Lynn had been relieved of his previous illness earlier, and he would have been in charge of the Rothschilds.
