Daenerys rode through a birch forest to a high hill and looked at the enemies in front of her.

The fluttering banner was painted with the image of the Harpy, but unlike Astapor, Yuankai's Harpy claws were clasped with whips and iron collars instead of chains.

In addition to the Harpy Banner, there are two other flags in the army ahead, one with four crows embedded in the cross-lightning bolts, and the other with a broken sword.

"That's the Raven Regiment and the Second Son Regiment." Sir Jorah Mormont explained, "They are all well-known mercenary groups in the continent of Essos, and their number is around five hundred. ”

The city-states of the continent of Essos like to find mercenary groups to help them fight, so the appearance of the Raven Regiment and the Second Son Regiment is not surprising.

"Mercenaries are no match for the Unsullied." Daenerys was confident in this, "How is the strength of Yuankai's army?" ”

"Nor can it be compared to the Unsullied." Jorah said, "Yuankai is known for training couch-mounted slaves, and their slaves are proficient in the seven techniques of spring crying and sixteen pleasure positions, but as for swords and spears, they are not very proficient. ”

When Daenerys heard this, she suddenly became more confident: "So, we can defeat Yuankai's army?" ”

"With the army of the Unsullied in hand, Yuankai will surely surrender at your feet." Jorah replied.

"But it also needs to bleed." Sir Barristan cautioned.

Daenerys nodded slowly, victory always comes at a price, of course she understands that.

As he spoke, he saw a small group of cavalry come out of the opposite position.

"It should be an emissary sent by the Yuankai people." Jorah guessed.

"Let's go, let's talk to them. Perhaps conquering the city doesn't necessarily require much bloodshed. ”

Daenerys turns around and returns to camp.

It didn't take long for Yuankai's envoys to arrive.

They were about fifty horsemen, led by a tall white camel.

On the camel was an envoy sent by Yuankai, named Grazdan.

"The walls of Yuankai are strong and strong, our nobles are proud and brave, and our people are strong and fearless." Grazdan arrogantly declared, "Our lineage is inherited from the ancient Guise Empire. While you Valyrians were still wandering the steppes, the Guggis Empire ruled the world. Your Majesty, your conquest should not have passed through here. ”

As he spoke, he high-fived, and the two attendants carried up a heavy wooden box and placed it in front of Daenerys.

"Fifty thousand gold coins." Grazdan said proudly, "On behalf of the friendship of Lord Yuankai, I hope you will accept it, and then return to Westeros to reclaim your father's Iron Throne." ”

Daenerys pushed open the lid with her slipper-clad little foot, and as the envoy had said, it was filled with gold coins.

She grabbed a handful of them and let them slip from her fingers, shining brightly.

"Very beautiful. I don't know how many of these chests I'll find after I conquer your city. ”

"Not a single one." "Because you'll never be able to." ”

Daenerys closed the box with her foot and said coldly;

"Bring my words back to the Mavens, who have three days to free all the slaves in the city of Yuankai, and to allow them to freely choose from their master's property as reward for their many years of service. When all the slaves are gone, my Unsullied will enter the gates and search your cities to make sure that no one continues to receive slavery.

As long as you obediently do so, Yuan Kai will not have to experience blood and fire. ”

"Are you crazy?" Grazdan Road.

"It's crazy indeed." A mercenary with the crest of the Raven Regiment's coat of arms tattooed on his chest laughed and said, "Women should just lie on the bed obediently, not try to provoke men on the battlefield." ”

"If you can please everyone in my regiment, maybe I'll consider changing my flag and fighting for the Mother of Dragons." Another mercenary representative laughed.

"I remember seeing a woman who called herself the Mother of Dragons at the Braavos Academy, or is that you?" Another humane.

……

In the face of the foul language of the mercenaries, Daenerys ordered in a low voice:

“Dracarys！”

The three dragons immediately responded, hissing and screaming, spitting out swirling red and black flames.

The mercenaries scattered in fright, and Grazdan was unable to dodge, and the hem of Toka's robe was set on fire, and his clothes burst into flames.

He cursed loudly and flapped his arm, but Sir Barristan poured a bucket of water over him and extinguished the flames.

"Woman! Do you know the rules? Hurt the envoys! ”

Daenerys stopped the restless dragon and said:

"It's just burning one of your clothes. I can buy you a new one. As long as you are willing to send the slaves out in three days, otherwise, next time my dragon will burn more than your clothes. ”

"You will pay for your arrogance!" Grazdan said angrily, "These little lizards can't save you!" I promise, if they dare to approach Yuankai, they will be shot down by the sky of crossbow arrows! It's not that hard to slay a dragon! We Gise did it thousands of years ago! ”

"Thousands of years ago, the Guise were wiped out by the dragons of Valyria." Daenerys sneered, ", you only have three days." ”

After the Yuankai envoys left, night had fallen.

Daenerys was dining, and Sir Jorah came in and reported:

"Your Majesty, the Unsullied has captured a mercenary trying to infiltrate the camp."

"Spies?"

"It's one of the leaders of the Raven Regiment, named Dario Naharis, who came with the Yuankai envoy in the afternoon, and he declared that he had a gift for you."

Daenerys remembered the man in the gorgeous yellow robe, and nodded:

"Bring it in."

Soon, Dario was brought in, carrying a heavy black canvas wrap over his shoulder.

"Beautiful Majesty, I have brought you a precious gift!" As soon as Dario entered the door, he laughed and said loudly, "The Ravens are yours!" ”

Daenerys was skeptical, "I remember that there are three leaders of the Raven Regiment, right?" The other two regimental commanders agreed to surrender? ”

"I brought them here, you can ask them personally." Dario smiled, reversed the package, and poured out the contents.

It was two bloody human heads.

Daenerys was shocked, but still pretended to be calm and said:

"You killed them?"

"Of course."

"Why?"

"Because you're so beautiful!" Dario stared at Daenerys presumptuously, unabashedly longing, "I'm willing to do anything for you!" If you are willing to marry me, then I will send the whole of Slave Bay to you! ”

"Little mercenary, speak wildly!" Jorah said dismissively.

Daenerys said, "I will conquer Slave Bay myself, and if you want to prove your loyalty, you will set fire to the camp of the Yuankai people tonight and cooperate with our night attack." ”

"No problem!"

"Okay, now, swear allegiance to me."

Dario exaggeratedly threw himself in front of Daenerys and pressed his forehead to her toes:

"My sword is yours, my life is yours, my blood, my body, and my songs are all yours. In life or death, I will obey your orders, beautiful queen! ”

Daenerys looked at the back of Dario's head, listening to his pompous words, but Caesar's face came to mind.

If only Caesar could do the same to me...... She thought silently.

"I accept your allegiance." Daenerys said, "Tonight, fight for me. ”

"You'll see." Dario stood up, bowed, and turned to leave.

Jorah immediately persuaded, "Your Majesty, this is not a good idea. If Dario can betray his own companions, he can also betray us. ”

"Mercenaries can't be trusted." Sir Barristan also said coldly.

"These are extraordinary times, and we can't demand absolute loyalty." Daenerys said, "Later, as long as there is a fire in the camp of the Yuankai, you will lead the Unsullied to attack. ”

Jorah wanted to say something more, but Daenerys didn't want to listen anymore and waved them off.
