Chapter 82: Compromise
Erya looked into Lynn's eyes and nodded heavily.
We chatted for a while.
Arya was greatly stimulated, and she was tired, and gradually fell asleep on the bar counter with squinting eyes.
The barmaid was a good-hearted woman, and took the initiative to pick up Erya from the wooden stairs to the bedroom on the second floor, so that Arya could sleep more sweetly.
Lynn asked a female medic who had nothing to do for the time being, to protect Arya.
He returned to the lobby of the tavern on the first floor, and continued to drink ale to refresh himself.
Lynn didn't have much to say about someone, and the two sat quietly at the bar, each thinking about their own thoughts.
Time passes slowly.
It's the middle of the night.
Someone broke into the tavern, and a soldier in cavalry uniform quietly came into Lynn's ear and whispered a few words.
Lynn's eyes flickered when he heard this, and he quickly led Guftavo and Stirling, and rode away with a few Gripen Knights waiting at the door.
The three armies are converging on the fork in the road from Neckze to the outside of the Twin River Cities.
Lynn rode out of the city from the east gate of Twin Rivers City, and after half an hour of travel, came to a fork in the road not far north of the grove.
It was dark, but the drizzle had stopped.
The first to spot Lynn's trail and greet him was Sir Duncan and his more than 300 heavily armed Gripen Knights.
The tall Duncan came up to Lynn, and there were soldiers beside him holding torches to illuminate his thin face, and the edges and corners were very clear.
He sat on his horse and saluted Lynn: "My lord, according to your orders, all the Gripen Legions have arrived, and the cavalry group that came from the fishing village port behind is still on foot, and may arrive later." ”
Lynn nodded at him.
looked at the other two groups of people on the three-way road behind him.
He asked softly, "Zeren soldiers and Iron Isles soldiers, how many troops do they have?"
"The commander of Ze Reed sent his personal guard knights, and he led 300 Ze soldiers from Grey Water Wang, and the Iron Islanders, under the leadership of Victor Grayjoy, pulled all the Iron Folk soldiers stationed in Neck Ze, the total number was ...... It is estimated at around 800 people. ”
Lynn let out a sigh and chuckled.
In his heart, he secretly cursed this old fox of the Greyjoy family.
Victor Greyjoy had recently lost Carlin Bay under a raid by Duncan's Knights of the Gripen.
Moreover, the battle between him and the Greywater Wangled family has been fighting for a while.
Now the three armies in front of them, each with their own ghosts, should have met enemies, and they were very red-eyed.
But now, they are gathered together in peace and quiet.
Lynn sighed in her heart, profit is really a terrible thing.
Lynn was talking to his men here.
Victor Greyjoy, the leader of the Iron People's Army, couldn't help but beat his horse and took the initiative to come up, and there was a bit of hypocrisy on his rough face.
Victor Leone squeezed out a smile, came to Lynn, and said with a strange smile: "It is said that there is an Eaglelion family in the north, and the lord is a descendant of the ancient Falcon family, I didn't believe it before, but now when I see Your Excellency, I know that there is really such a young talent in the north." ”
Lynn looked at Victarion and squinted, and complimented: "The Greyjoy family sharpens their knives, and now they have taken Winterfell, and then Carlin Bay, planning the entire northern land, I can't say that in the future, I, Lynn, will still consider myself a vassal of the Greyjoy family." ”
"Your Excellency said that your cavalry regiment almost took my life in Carlin Bay, but I heard that you are going to return Carlin Bay to the Reed family?" Victor Talion looked at Lynn and continued with a smile, "In my opinion, in this battle in Twin Rivers, our two families can join forces, and when the time comes, according to the agreement, the Twin Castles will belong to my Greyjoy family, and Your Excellency will still hold Carlin Bay, wouldn't each have their own gains." ”
At this time, the leading knights of the Zeren Reed family also came over.
This person has a short body and skin, and only wears a green short hanger, exposing the strong muscles of his body, and he looks extraordinary.
He apparently listened to Viktarion's words, and at this point snorted coldly, expressing his dissatisfaction.
Lynn, who was still on the horse, said lightly to this Zeren knight, "There are too few of you Zeren coming. ”
"Greywater Lookout needs more soldier protection to prevent the Iron Islanders from sneaking up on Iron Bay. The Zeren knight said, "Lord Holland, I'll explain to Lord Lynn later." ”
Victor said disdainfully: "Does the Swamp Reed family think that I, the Greyjoy family, with only one army of my Victor, can't take the neck, and still need reinforcements?"
Lynn waved his hand to stop them from continuing to argue.
Before the start of the war, it was necessary to maintain the unity of the temporary coalition forces.
Lynn said, "If the Ze people only send 300 men, then the Carlin Bay return agreement, I will be forced to terminate the performance!"
Victor Greyjoy, who was watching the play, let out a sneer.
The knights of House Reed looked unhappy.
He thought for a while, looked up at Lynn's expressionless young face, and said slowly, "Commander Holland will personally bring a fleet and take a boat down the Green Fork River to Twin River City. ”
Lynn raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this.
These families have been able to stand in Westeros for hundreds of thousands of years without falling, and sure enough, they all have two brushes.
Lynn knew that the purpose of the Greywater Lord Holland Reed's personal attack from the water was still to guard against the Greyjoy family, and he was unwilling to fight side by side with the Greyjoy family during the siege to prevent the opponent from stabbing him in the back.
But that's fine.
With the current scale of the army participating in the war, there is no worry about not being able to take the Twin River City.
A smile appeared on the corner of Lynn's mouth, "I see, but Lynn blames Grand Commander Holland, since our men and horses are in place, at dawn, we will launch an attack on the west city of Twin River City at the same time." ”
"Lord Victor Greyjoy, please take your soldiers from the fork in the road to stand by outside the West Gate, and you will attack the West Gate of the Twin Cities when I and Commander Reed attack from the East City. ”
Victor Greyjoy said, "That's fine, but don't forget your promise to take the Twin Cities, the castle owned by the Iron Isles." ”
"Of course, I swear in the name of the old gods, in the name of my Rothschilds, to take the Twin Castles, and my army will withdraw directly from the Riverlands. Lynn looked at him with a smile and reassured the Zeren Knight as he spoke, "Carlin Bay will also be returned to the Reed family." ”
The two of them readily agreed, and went to prepare for the matter in front of the station.
Lynn led Duncan and his Gripen Knights to East Twin River City in case the Frey family launched it early.
On the way, the tall Duncan asked Lynn with some confusion.
"Lord Lord, we have worked hard to win Twin River City and Kalin Bay and give them all to the two families, so what can we get?"
Duncan understands that his master, Lynn, is not a man who will trade at a loss.
But no matter how much he pondered, he couldn't understand what Lynn's real intention was.
