Chapter 252: Despair and Killing

Black descends.

On the east coast of Westeros in King's Landing, on the harbor levee overlooking Blackwater Bay, the Harbor Guard soldiers on duty are preparing to change their guards.

At this moment, in a narrow alleyway behind them, several large dogs suddenly began to bark.

The sound of horses' hooves sounded on the hard bluestone road, and a horse quickly emerged from the alley, followed by a second, a third, and after a while, six or seven war horses soon sprang out.

More dogs barked, and the vigilant Harbor Guard soldiers noticed that the sound was not just coming from one alley, but more people rushing out of the alleys between the residential buildings.

The leading port guard soldier drew his sword from his waist, and his soldier raised his spear and raised his shield, although the panicked expression on his face was unmistakable, but they had no choice but to prepare to meet the enemy under the leadership of the captain.

"Leave it to me here, there's the port guard tower to the northeast, you go there and take control of the tower. ”

From the low, narrow alleyway to the wide harbor embankment, Brienne rode her war horse and said to the two riders beside her.

"Yes, knight. One of the riders looked at a dozen or so soldiers of the harbor guard who were not far in front of him, pulled the reins and turned the horse's head, and sped away towards the east.

The port guards, who are not part of the Golden Robe Guards of the Capital Garrison, have always been under-armed, and King's Landing has its own navy and the Capital Guards, so they are almost a bunch of wild children who don't have a mother's pain.

Just look at how miserable these people who are in charge of guarding the harbor are, just look at the church forces who don't bother to take care of them. The church did not pay these people in full, nor did it send anyone to take over the port here, as long as the guards here obediently pretended that nothing had happened, guarded the one acre and three points of the port, and did not set foot in the city to stir up peace.

The Harbor Guard was actually quite strong when the Dragons were in charge, but since Robert focused on the navy, the military here has completely lost the attention of powerful figures.

At present, there are 200 people in office, but less than half of them are combat-ready, and these people have long been responsible for guarding the ports of King's Landing on the east coast, but they are not in the big battle, and their main job is to check smuggling and maintain law and order.

The surprise attack team sent by Lynn was about fifty people, all of whom were wearing good armor, and most of them were riding war horses.

Taking advantage of the cover of night, the raid team killed the harbor guard by surprise during the rotation.

The two sides quickly opened up and fought together.

In the face of the ferocious oncoming enemy, the port guard can only resist desperately.

The cavalry had absolute superiority at the very beginning of the battle.

The harbor resounded with the sounds of fighting, but almost all the screams and howls came from the mouths of the harbor guard soldiers.

A streak of scarlet blood splattered in the air, quickly spilling onto the ground and melting black.

"Kill!"

"Ah~"

"Stay in formation!"

"Ah~"

"Hold on!

The sound of horses' hooves was noisy, and the motley cavalry of the port guard also heard the news and came to support.

The harbor guards who were surrounded didn't have time to rejoice for long.

It soon became clear that their cavalry reinforcements had been overwhelmed by a dozen or so crossbowmen from the enemy, and that seven or eight crossbowmen with bows and arrows on their backs and without any noble crest on their chests or collars did not appear for battle, and only when the cavalry of the port guard appeared did they rush out of the alleys.

Looking at their own cavalry, they almost died before they could complete a successful sprint, and several of their horses lost their master's control, and even in a panic, they stumbled on the embankment and fell into the sea below.

The captain of the Harbor Guard had a sad look on his face.

When Brienne, who rode a war horse and cut melons and vegetables all the way to break down their last line of defense, appeared in front of him.

The captain of the port guard was even more desperate, and said his last words: "Which family are you from?"

Brienne held a broad knight's sword in one hand, the war horse raised its hooves, and after slashing the head of the head of the harbor guards, blood was splashed everywhere, and her cold face did not have a hint of cowardice, and she said calmly to the headless corpse that fell silently: "North, Gripon!"

After the east coast port was taken bloodlessly, a sail rowing boat quickly left the port in the dark harbor night and headed further east of Blackwater Bay.

The forces inside the city continued to move, and the Lannisters outside the city also began a massive massacre.

The thunderous sound of hooves sounded in the night.

At the end of King's Road, in the shallow woods outside King's Landing, people who were blocked outside the city were constantly awakened from their light sleep.

Gray night light was shining through the branches of the trees, and in the vast forest, there was a huddled figure under almost every tree.

Figures rose from under the shadows of the trees, and everyone looked up at the long dragon of fiery snakes spread out in the east, and soon, the firelight gradually approached, and the sparrow believers who had no way to come to King's Landing looked at each other.

Groups of heavily armed men in bright red cloaks were holding torches and marching side by side towards them, most of them only rubbing their loose eyes and their minds in a state of confusion even though they had climbed up from under the trees.

Ahh

Ahhh

Suddenly, heart-rending screams broke the silence in the forest.

Dangdang!

Gotta get it!

The sound of swords clashing and horses' hooves instantly followed in the shallow woods.

Gregor Clegan galloped through the hard dirt and stabbed a prostrate figure with an iron spear intent on pretending to be dead.

The cloth was shattered, the flesh was blurred, and the magic mountain stopped the iron horse and shouted to the Lannister soldiers who continued to march behind him, "Kill everyone, don't let anyone go!"

The sound is thunderous and breathtaking.

The woods were sparse, and the cavalry could completely let go of the speed and gallop.

The cavalrymen around him agreed with a bang, threw the reins, whipped the horses, raised their swords and spears in the firelight, and galloped to kill all the way.

The sound of horses' hooves could not drown out the sound of bowstrings, and the Lannisters did not hesitate to shoot arrows from the quiver in the woods.

Bang!

"Murder!"

"Run, the Lannisters are coming!"

A man was so frightened by the sight that his tongue knotted his tongue, and as he ran towards the woods, he tore his throat and shouted, "Run!"

Sou!

An arrow flew and hit him in the chest, and the shouting stopped abruptly.

The figure that fell down with a bang didn't die immediately, and he looked up in the mud heap with difficulty, and the arrows were shooting from in front of him, and he felt a hint of incredulity.

However, he soon saw a long winding fire snake in front of him light up, and finally closed his eyes in despair.

Tywin was prepared to deal with the Rebels who were stuck for miles outside King's Landing, so he was fully prepared.

As the fire lit up, rows of Lannisters with shields in their shields gathered from the other side of the woods.

Those who have long swords draw their long swords, those who are accustomed to bows and arrows take off their bows and arrows, draw their bows and arrows, and the ranks quickly form a side-by-side formation, like fishing nets, and will sift all the way into the woods.

This shallow grove is just one of the shelters that the people of King's Landing have used to shelter from the elements.

More woods, at about the same time, erupted in fierce fighting and howling.

Ahhh

The screams were heard from the woods all the way out of the woods, and on the road at the end of King's Road, the carriages of the wandering knights were the focus of the Lannisters' army.

These poor but powerful riders, after discovering the Lannister's move for the first time, raised their weapons to launch a counterattack or break through.

Whoosh!

In a rain of arrows from all directions.

"Break through to the north," shouted a knight from the Riverlands.

The wandering knights' families are not well-off, and the disorganized second-hand armor is a prominent sign of these people.

There was no shield protection and was taken care of, the moment the raid was launched, dozens of wandering cavalry were killed by arrows in the dense rain of arrows, and the war horses they rode also had no armor protection, and after the arrows, they ran wildly and roared.

For a moment the screams of the men and the neighing of the horses rang out.

When all the Lannisters appeared behind the woods on both sides of King's Road, the frightened wandering knights, no one shouted loudly, and broke through, leaving only a desperate greeting from the heart.

"Lannister rotten bitches, sooner or later the gods will send you to hell. ”

"Kill me, ha, kill me, you're just a rotten band on Lao Tzu's chicken bully. ”

"Unbaptized Lannister donkey, grandson of the Viper Demon, I am waiting for you in hell. ”
