Are the Alpine clan tribes difficult to deal with?

It's not difficult, the equipment is poor, malnourished, and untrained, and there is no difference between fighting and fighting with a Cypriot outfielder...... Then why did the rulers of Arryn Valley never try to settle them?

The answer to this question is the same as why the Night's Watch didn't kill all the wildlings: indeed, a few thousand well-trained soldiers—not much of the need, just the same level as Egger—would be enough to slaughter the hundreds of thousands of savages outside the Cypriots, and the only survivors would be driven to the Land of Eternal Winter. The question is, where did these thousands of elite soldiers come from? How long did it take for them to kill all the savages? Who would pay for the food and grass during this period? What should be done with the casualties and pensions caused by the wild men when they organized a rebellion? After the savages were wiped out, did the Great Wall give the scum and political prisoners of the Seven Kingdoms a peaceful old age?

The number of the Gaoshan clans was far smaller than that of the Saiwai savages, but they burrowed into the mountains and did not have a fixed village to fight guerrillas, which made it even more difficult to clear out.

Speaking of which, the reason is very simple: the benefits obtained by spending effort to level the Gaoshan clan tribe are far less than the possible loss, and instead of tossing, it is better to bring a team of guards when entering and exiting the avenue of the Mingyue Mountain Range - both to prevent bandits and Gaoshan clans, generally speaking, as long as there are more than ten men with weapons in the team, they will rarely be attacked.

In the final analysis, it is still a question of "productivity", these three words limit a lot of human imagination and good wishes, and they are the eternal heroes that cannot be bypassed, forcing people to be down-to-earth and survive in this cold and dark world.

......

On the day when the "Ghost Slayer" offered his advice to the king, the battle meeting was held for a long time, and when many nobles and generals walked out of the king's tent and returned to their respective camps, the coalition camp moved again. An hour or two later, troops ranging in size from dozens to hundreds left the camp and headed in the direction of the evacuation of the Blood Gate, which looked like there was an infighting and wanted to go home to farm - but after leaving the sight of the Blood Gate defenders, they would soon turn back on a long detour, burrowing into the Bright Moon Mountains, searching for traces of the Alpine Clan tribe.

The poor mountain clan tribe immediately retreated back into the mountains after seeing Robert's mighty counterinsurgency army marching into the valley, starving for more than a month without showing up to do anything, who wanted to be so obedient but still couldn't escape the catastrophe - the king and a bunch of nobles didn't think of them at all, but at the suggestion of a time-traveler from another world, hundreds of scouts and elite soldiers who were good at woodland and mountain warfare came to the door!

Egger had planned to return to King's Landing after his plan, but he learned from Earl Bookwell, who had returned from the meeting, that Robert had already determined the battle plan and deadline: the small force that infiltrated the Bright Moon Mountains would fight the coalition forces inside and outside to take the Bloody Gate, and if they could not win within half a month, they would negotiate a settlement with the Alliance of the Righteous One.

In this "hopeful" situation, Iger decided to stay a little longer, and maybe get some reward if his methods brought Robert victory.

＊＊＊

Dressed in black, but offering advice to the Iron Throne, this is already a serious side game, as for personally participating in the action...... That's something you wouldn't dare. Staying in the coalition barracks, Iger didn't know how the "clever plan" he had offered was progressing, and it was impossible for the troops sent out to burrow into the Bright Moon Mountains to keep in touch with the coalition camp at all times, and now the whole battle situation was a black box for him, and he could only wait for the results.

The "siege" on the battlefield continued day after day, but the entire coalition battalion had quietly transformed into a state of readiness for war—although it was still one army a day to call for battle and pretend to be in front of the bloody gate, but at the same time, the armies of the other five nations were also armored and ready to go to war at any time, in the words of the Earl of Bookwell: "Just wait for the signal to appear, and the army will rush up and take the bloody gate." ”

As to the form and approximate timing of this signal, even the old earl himself could not tell.

Time was still passing day by day, and Egger's confidence in his plan was fading, and he suddenly realized that he was actually very suspicious of "talking on paper", and that the mountain clan tribes did exist, and they might really know that they could enter the path of the Arryn Valley, but would the elite troops that Robert had sent into the mountains be able to catch them who were good at guerrillas?

In fact, he didn't know anything, but boldly bet on the "records of the history books", hoping that these battle examples were all real and could be reproduced in the otherworldly Arryn Valley.

This anxiety lasted until the sixth day after the offering.

On this day, Iger was invited to have an afternoon drink with the Earl of Buswell, and listened to the old man complain about the cost of military pay and the harvest in the territory affected by the war, when suddenly there was a long trumpet outside the tent, followed by the footsteps of the people and the neighing of the horses...... and the dull and monotonous sound of horses' hooves on the earth, and the accompanying vibrations.

"What's the matter?" asked the old Earl and Egger as they emerged from their tents and shouted to the soldiers outside.

"My lord, the Chinese army has sent a banner, the whole army is attacking, bring the siege ladder!"

There is no need to ask any more questions, the shouting and killing sound from the direction of the Blood Gate Pass has already explained everything - the daily "siege" of the rotating army has come to an end today, and there is obviously not a single soldier of the Six-Nation Alliance in the small square inch in front of the Blood Gate Pass, where did the shouting and killing sound come from?

"Damn...... Egger, you stay in the barracks, I have to follow, Robert will definitely lead the troops to attack in person, this is a good time to pick up credit!" The old earl said this to Egger, and without pausing for the slightest, he faced the chaotic Antlerfort army: "Don't mess around! Find the direct commander, don't lose your weapons, formation!"

"His Majesty has rushed over with cavalry!"

"Seven gods! don't care, keep the same pace! Let's go, the ones behind hurry up! Don't lose your sword and armor!"

What would it look like for tens of thousands of people to charge together? Egger soon saw it, and Yoren was also led out of the tent by the voice, as the night watchmen, they were the only people in the coalition camp who could watch the play in peace, and they didn't need to worry about the "merit", they came to the dirt slope closest to the army of Fort Antlers, and looked at the battlefield from afar.

The white robes of the guards around him were glaring in the sunlight, and they were like sharp knives slamming into the Bloody Gate, while the rain of arrows that used to strike at the city was gone—the defenders were fighting with the heavenly warriors from behind.

Behind the cavalry were countless infantry who had almost lost their formation in the black pressure and scattered all over the mountains. Due to the large number of elites and officers entering the mountains and forests to find paths, the peasants and soldiers, who were already not highly trained, were even more chaotic at the moment, and on weekdays, such a chaotic attack would be useless except to give away people's heads - but today, as long as everyone runs fast enough to climb the wall before the defenders of the Blood Gate drive the raiding team off the city, the war will be over!

"My God......" Egger was also a little nervous, the king rushed to the front during the battle, which may be a romance in this era, but in the eyes of the traverser is really a bad habit, and it is also a helpless move under the insufficient training level of soldiers: "Robert, don't put yourself in it." ”

"Don't worry, although I haven't fought a few battles, I have seen a lot more and know with my toes that the moment the rebels are touched from behind their butts and do not notice it, the victory is already decided. ”

The cavalry rushed through the nearly filled trench to the walls of the Bloodgate, where Robert and the Kingsguard ...... and more royal cavalry dismounted. Although they were the first to reach the finish line, they couldn't climb the blood gate with their hands and feet before the infantry carried the ladder, but the solution soon appeared: a ladder was abandoned under the city wall when the previous attempt at siege failed, and it was picked up to shake off some blood and mud, and it was ready to use immediately!

Under the watchful eye of the two night watchmen and the attendant Casey, a white-robed man who could not see his identity was the first to climb the ladder to the top of the Blood Gate, and after guarding the upper end of the ladder, Robert's fat figure began to climb the ladder for the second...... By the time he had also climbed the Blood Gate, and even the second and more ladders had been put up on the wall and no one had taken care of them, the battle had lost its suspense.

The shouts of killing gradually subsided, after all, the defenders of the Bloodgate and the army of Robert did not have a deep hatred, some of them may have even fought side by side during the war of the retainers, seeing that nothing could be done, surrender became the only option, less than half an hour later, the banners of the Alliance of the Righteous at the head of the Bloodgate City fell, and a crown stag flag fluttered.
