272 Earl of Storm's End

Sir Torgan looked at the fake inflatable fish as if he were looking at a clown:

"What qualifications do you have? On whose behalf are you making the conditions? ”

"The qualification is based on the fact that I have a knife in my hand." "As for which side to represent...... I represent the civilians of the river bend who died in this rebellion and looting. They need justice. ”

Ser Torgen frowned, "But we've already negotiated terms with the Tyrells, so it's not appropriate for you to add any more." ”

At this moment, an iron man walked in and said:

"We have withdrawn from the High Court, and now we have released our king."

"Okay." Samwell nodded.

King Balon clutched his stomach and struggled to his feet, not forgetting to turn back and give the bastard who was holding him hostage a vicious look.

But in the next second, his gaze froze.

Because, a sharp knife was plunged straight into the back of his heart!

"What are you doing!" The Iron People roared.

The people of Hewan were also in an uproar for a while.

"Don't let him run to report the news!" When Samwell saw that the iron man was about to run, he immediately reminded him.

The Knight of the Bend at the gate understood and immediately stopped him.

"What do you mean by that?" Sir Torgan asked.

But the tone was not very harsh, after all, he also hated the bandits of the Iron Islands, and if they died, they died.

It was only when he felt that this faceless man was breaking the rules that he questioned it out loud.

"I said, this is to get justice for the tragic death of the civilians in the riverbank." Samwell made up for the dying and struggling King Baron, shrugged his shoulders, and said indifferently, "Anyway, Baron will kill and kill, instead of making a fuss about me here, you should hurry up and control the gate of the High Court first." lest they come back again. ”

This time, Sir Togan was as good as he could, and waved his hand at his men.

"Alright, now let me go." Samwell rested the knife at Lady Ewen's throat and walked out.

The people of the river bends along the way all got out of the way.

……

Outside the High Court Castle.

Victor asked, "Are you all out?" ”

"It's all out. His Majesty Balon is left. ”

Viktarion nodded: "You go to the castle and take His Majesty out." ”

"Yes."

Not long after his men left, Victor's face suddenly changed.

The next moment, he slammed to the ground and pressed his ears to the ground.

The rumbling sound of horses' hooves was already faintly audible.

Didn't the people of Hewan say that the army would arrive at dawn?

Damn it!

Scammed!

Despicable riverbend people!

Victor Tarion suddenly sprang up from the ground: "Quick! Hurry to the port! ”

The ironmen also seemed to sense the danger approaching, and they ran away one after another.

But before they could get far, a flaming serpent appeared in the darkness of the north.

The sound of horses' hooves became clearer and clearer, as if the footsteps of death were approaching.

"Let's go!" Victor roared hoarsely.

The River Mandeb is in sight, and as long as they escape to the water, they will be saved.

But these few short miles seem to be as far away as heaven and man forever.

The Iron Rider of the River Bend finally arrived, holding torches and knives aloft.

Bring blood and death.

……

At this time, Samwell and his party happened to arrive at the gate of the city, and the shouts of killing outside the city made the rebels nervous again.

Sir Togan pressed Velas's shoulder and asked:

"What's going on? Didn't you negotiate the conditions? ”

"It should be the vanguard of the Riverbend Army who bumped into the Iron Min." Vilas was still calm, "They don't know we have reached an agreement yet. You can send an emissary to inform the army so that there is no misunderstanding. ”

Sir Togan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and sent for a messenger outside the city.

As for those unlucky iron people, he didn't bother to care.

It's good to be slaughtered.

This is the price they paid for plundering the bends.

Seeing the gates slowly open, Sir Togan looked at the Faceless One and said:

"Alright, let Mrs. Aiwen go, and you can leave."

Samwell smiled and said:

"Sir Torgan, you are such a clever man. You have contributed to the peaceful resolution of the civil strife crisis this time, so before leaving, I would like to give you a gift. ”

"What gift?" Sir Togan was curious, but in the next second, his gaze froze.

Because in front of everyone's eyes, that fake inflatable fish actually slit Mrs. Aiwen's throat!

"That's the price of betrayal." Samwell carried the bloody knife, said lightly, and after speaking, he rushed out of the city in a flash, and disappeared into the darkness in an instant.

Blood gushed out, and Mrs. Aiwen tried to reach out to cover it, but to no avail.

After a few gasps in vain, she slipped to the ground like a boneless fish.

The city gate was quiet for a moment, and everyone didn't expect this faceless man to dare to kill.

The next moment, the people of the Oakhut family suddenly erupted, and the sound of cursing and scolding came in a surge.

"Lord Togan, do you want to chase it?"

Sir Togan froze in place, as if he had not recovered from his shock.

But in fact, he understood what the person meant by the so-called gift just now-

Lady Ewen died, and there were no heirs, so the inheritance of the ancient Oak City was in the hands of Togan.

This is indeed a great gift!

At this moment, Velas hurriedly said, "Father-in-law, our previous agreement is still valid, please trust the credibility of the Tyrell family." As for what the man did, it has nothing to do with us. ”

This father-in-law called Sir Togan's heart fluttered, and then he nodded: "Okay, but you must promise not to kill again." ”

"No, it won't. Absolutely not! Duke Mace also hurriedly shouted, "We have no intention of sabotaging the peace talks, that person has nothing to do with us!" ”

"Okay." Sir Torgen nodded in satisfaction.

But he didn't mention it again to chase the murderer who killed Mrs. Aiwen.

The shouts of killing outside the city became more and more intense, and in the northwest direction of the high court, there was a firelight and the smell of blood.

Time passed little by little while waiting, and when dawn broke in the east, the messenger returned again, saying:

"Count Landau agrees that you will lead your army out of the High Court, and he will not stop it."

Sir Togan breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Velas:

"Good son-in-law, let's go, let's go back to Ancient Oak City."

"Okay." Vilas was quite comfortable with this.

Next, the rebels finally began to evacuate the High Court.

Since Vilas was still in their hands, they were not hindered or ambushed along the way.

When they left, Count Landau led his army into the city to calm the people and clean up the situation.

Samwell also followed the army into the city, and his disguise at this time had long since reached the end of time, and he had changed back to his original appearance.

Finding Earl Randolph, Samwell inquired about the situation of blocking the Iron Min.

According to preliminary statistics, the iron people left nearly 2,000 corpses outside Gaoting City last night, which can be described as heavy casualties, but unfortunately because it was night, the cavalry could not exert their full strength, and many iron people still took advantage of the chaos to run on the Mande River.

Samwell also had some pity.

If the Qingting Island fleet waits at the mouth of the Mandeb River at this time, it can completely deal a heavy blow to the Iron People, at least so that in the next ten years, the Iron Islands will no longer be able to set off any storms.

But he also knew that the Redwin family wouldn't help them, and it would be good if they didn't cause trouble.

The key Earl of Packer has not yet committed substantial betrayal, and I am afraid that he has not been able to punish the other party.

Of course, if you really want to be held responsible, Qingting Island is definitely not innocent.

It's up to Lady Olenna to decide if she's willing to do something to her own family.

Samwell felt that was unlikely.

"You can't just let go of the deer party so easily!" Count Matus Rowan said.

Samwell shrugged, "But the Deer Party has Willas Tyrell." Moreover, Lady Olena may not be willing to let the Ma Party dominate the Riverbend family. ”

"We can't count on the Tyrells." "What they want is balance, so we can't completely crush the Deer Party with the favor of the Tyrells unless we completely tear our faces." The only way to do this is to bring in an external force, such as the Stormlands. ”

Samwell understood what his father meant, nodded and said:

"I will return to Storm's End as soon as possible and aim to take full control of the Stormlands within two years. At that point, we'll settle accounts with the Deer Party. ”

Earl Landau said:

"Not bad. For the next two years, you must focus on developing your own power, the one that you can truly control. You don't have to worry too much about this side of the river, the horse party can still stabilize the situation. Plus, there's Dorne. ”

"Dorne...... You mean the Stormlands army trapped in Dorne, right? ”

"That's right. Now that you're the master of the Stormlands, it's time to think about how to get the Martell family to release this army. If successful, it will allow you to earn the loyalty of the nobles of Stormlands more quickly. ”

Samwell nodded, but there was some confusion in his heart.

Prince Dolang had already put forward a condition last time, which was to ask him to marry Princess Alian's troublesome spirit.

I don't know if I can get the other party to change the conditions......

"And canonization." Count Matus also reminded, "You have captured Storm's End, but you still need a name. ”

Samwell had already thought of this.

After capturing Storm's End, his stat panel has not changed, and he is still the Viscount of Eagle's Beak.

He remembered that the first two title changes on the attribute panel had been after receiving the official canonization of the Duke of the High Court.

So, this panel is not only about capturing the castle, but also about the title that goes with it.

But the problem is that he can't find anyone to canonize himself as the Duke of Storm's End.

Only a king can canonize a duke, but the one on the Iron Throne will certainly not canonize him, and the other king, Stannis Baratheon, is even less likely to be willing to canonize Storm's End to a Caesar.

After all, this is the lair of House Baratheon.

The Duke of Metz is not eligible to be canonized by another duke, he can be canonized by one count at most.

However, the earl is the earl.

Samwell decided to take it one step at a time.

Let's see how many attribute points can be added to the earl's title.

As for whether it would be embarrassing to rule the Stormlands with an Earl of Storm's End...... Samwell didn't really care.

Anyway, if you don't surrender, you will fight.

He conquered the Stormlands not by title, but by armies and dragons.

"Okay, then I'll go to Duke Mace."

Samwell went out and after some inquiry, he found the sleeping inflatable fish in the main castle bedroom.

It seems that I didn't sleep well last night and am making up for sleep.

I have to say that sometimes this inflatable fish is in a good mood.

Samwell woke him up and bluntly asked for canonization.

Duke Metz didn't dare to refuse, so he could only get up with a stomach and sign a canonization order.

Samwell immediately saw the change in the properties panel:

Title: Earl (+10)

Territory: Wind's Rest, Eagle's Beak Island

Vassals: Lucas Dane, Cheman Huya, Katu Huya, Todd Fohua, Gavin Mande, Brienne Tas, Bruce Bukeler, and 57 others

Power: 4.50 (8.70)

Dexterity: 4.07 (7.86)

Spirit: 9.38
