Chapter 9: Bad News

The sky in King's Landing was overcast, cloudy and heavy.

The Lannister's army climbed the wall with a ladder in King's Landing, and the 4,000 garrisons of the capital in the city attacked from behind, and the poor people's assembly church armed on the tower of the city gate had reached its limit for a whole day, the asphalt on the city wall was emptied, all the stones were lost, and when the arrows were also shot out, the army of church believers who had long been abandoned by the Sparrow Church could no longer reach it.

Tywin never rushes to do things like a meteor in battle, his command has always been calm, anyway, his army is outnumbered, with a strong long-range attack force, no matter how it stands, the situation will always be in his favor, so this battle his men fought extremely steadily.

The poor men on the walls gathered and armed, and did not take advantage of the advantages of the walls to inflict heavy losses on the Lannisters, although it took a little time, but Tywin still managed to lead himself into King's Landing's tens of thousands of troops and cross the gates of King's Landing at noon two days later, with little loss.

Tywin didn't show much of the joy of victory on his face.

Because the bad news he has received in the past two days has far exceeded the good news brought by this victorious battle.

The town of Earl Harroway was lost, and Lynn's Gripen fleet officially took control of the important crossings of the lower reaches of the Trident River, and the tentacles of the north could touch the entire Riverland mansion at any time, and even as long as the people of the north were willing, they could even send troops directly to the south and west, reaching the royal territory and the western region.

Bad news followed.

Gentile invasions, and the former Targolian Remnant led hundreds of thousands of legions including dragons and the Dirt Legion to Dragonstone, they also have their sights on King's Landing.

Tywin suddenly felt himself planning King's Landing, as the variables became very idiotic.

"Did the Sparrow run away?" Tywin, riding on a tall horse surrounded by Lannister's guards, asked Gregor Clegane, the Magic Mountain, who had just returned from the assault from the front.

The Demon Mountain smiled and pointed to the west inside the city gate, and was silent.

Tywin looked up in the direction the mountain was pointing.

Dense crowds of churchgoers stopped in the middle of the road that led to King's Landing Central Avenue, which led to the Red Keep, King's Landing's palace.

Tywin frowned and commanded to the side, "Send someone to expel these people." ”

"I tried, these people didn't go, the sparrow entered the Red Keep through the secret passage, took control of King Tommen, I heard that there was a king's edict and the archbishop's edict in the Red Keep at the same time, they ordered and advocated the believers of King's Landing and the loyal people, and blocked all the avenues, as if to prevent us from approaching the Red Keep. ”

Tywin's face turned pale, and he said to his generals: "Kill a group of people, I will give you an hour, and clear the road for me immediately, Sir Adam Malbran, as the commander-in-chief of the golden-robed guard, it is also his responsibility to maintain law and order in the capital, let him cooperate with you, it is impossible for the army to block the city gate for too long." ”

An hour passed, and no matter how the golden-robed guards threatened, and even demonstrated with the heads cut off in the street and stuck in the tips of their guns, the people on the avenues of King's Landing did not leave.

Tywin's commander and Ser Adam Malbran returned to the city gates and reported the strange situation to Tywin, in exchange for a whip and a scolding from the Lannister Lions.

Dragonstone's enemy could march on King's Landing at any time, and the port of King's Landing was still under fire from the Northern Fleet, and the ignorant people in the city were still here at this time.

Tywin's final whip slammed into Sir Adam Malbran's face, sending a narrow trail of blood straight into his face.

Tywin roared like a lion at his former Lannister cavalry captain, and scolded, "At such a critical juncture, you told me that so many soldiers were being kidnapped by those unarmed fools in King's Landing? You are the commander-in-chief of the Golden Robe Guard, don't you feel ashamed to say this at this time? Let the Demon Mountain accompany you to see what the Demon Mountain Legion does." ”

Hearing this, the Demon Mountain on the side smiled fiercely, looked at the reprimanded two people with disdain, and took the lead in rushing forward, and the fifty elite cavalry of his Demon Mountain Legion Guards held the banner of the legion, and immediately followed.

Ser Adam Malbran, the commander-in-chief of the capital garrison, who had just cooperated with Tywin to seize the gates of King's Landing, was not only not rewarded, but instead received a scolding, although his face was black and ugly, but under Tywin's gaze, he dared not speak out.

He gritted his teeth, clenched his fists with both hands in response, and strode over, following the back of the Demon Mountain towards King's Landing.

Milan has lunch with Brienne and the sisters Sansa and Arya Stark, who escaped from the Red Keep.

Sansa lowered her face and stared at the food in front of her, not taking a bite. Arya devoured everything in front of her.

"Tywin has entered the city, killed tens of thousands of people blocking the way, is besieging the Red Keep, the port will not be safe, the soldiers of Lannister, sooner or later will come to search here, Jack, the commander-in-chief of the Gripen fleet, sent a letter to say that he has received an order from Lord Lynn and is preparing to withdraw to the north, do you want to follow the fleet to the north. ”

Arya looked at the plate in front of her that was cleaner than her face, and said with a sad face, "If you can...... I want to go back to the free trade city-state of Braavos, and my trial of the House of Black and White is not over yet. ”

Sansa on the side looked at her sister, knowing that Arya was a member of an assassin organization, and she had not been reunited with her relatives for a long time, so she hurriedly squeezed Arya's hand when she heard this, and said reluctantly: "Doesn't it mean that there is no one to stay in Essos?"

Arya looked at her sister Sansa's untouched plate, and looked at her with a worried look on her face and said, "No matter what happens there, the House of Black and White will survive, I must go back to the House of Black and White and learn the skills, I will let all my father's enemies be punished as they deserve, and I will execute those who have committed crimes against the Starks, just as I stabbed Rams Burton to death."

It's you... Sister, you should go to the North, Lord Lynn Rothschild, the Guardian of the North, I know, he is a good lord, he will not hurt you, and he has set the capital of the North in White Harbor, not Winterfell, which shows that although he rules the North, he still respects the Stark family. ”

Sansa Stark was a little reluctant to return to the North as a patron, she was a proud Stark, her family had ruled the North for a thousand years, and now she would return to the North with nothing.

The former vassals of the Stark family are now all gone from Stark, what can they do with an empty Winterfell?

Erya looked at her sister's silent expression, guessed something, and comforted: "Don't you want to go to your brother Bran and Ricken?"
