Attack Runestone City?!

Count Geralt peeked at the expression of the Magic Mountain, and found that the Magic Mountain did not seem to be interested.

Magic Mountain thought about doing the business of Seagull Town first.

"Lord Geralt, I see a lot of trading ships of the nobles of the Vale parked in the harbor. Don't deny it, I recognize the coats of arms of the nobles of the Vale. ”

"Yes, Lord Duke. Seagull Town is a port city for hundreds of thousands of people in the valley for foreign trade, and it is also a favorite trading port for the common people and nobles in the eastern part of the riverlands. To the right of Seagull Town is Crab Bay, which is connected to the Trident River in the Riverlands and is well connected to many towns in the Riverlands by the waterways of the three major inland rivers of the Red, Blue and Green Forks. Many of the Vale nobles traded with many towns in the Riverlands, as well as free trade city-states across the Narrow Sea. ”

"Is there anything wrong with me taking all the trading ships in the harbor?"

Isn't it appropriate?

With the ferocity of Magic Mountain daring to kill Kaivon Lannister, there is no question of whether it is appropriate or not. When the Magic Mountain said this, he was just giving Count Geralt respect.

The Demon Mountain Soldiers had entered the city, and he was about to turn his face, and Count Geralt knew that he could do nothing.

Even if you don't open the city gates, you can't avoid the magic mountain taking the ships in the port for themselves.

"Your Excellency has enough warships. Count Geralt laughed.

"No, not much at all. I want to build the most powerful naval fleet in the Seven Nations, and I hope to have at least 500 capital warships and 100 logistics, reserve, and supply ships. I would like you to help me, Lord Count, and allow me to take some of the ships in the harbor. "The Demon Mountain rides on the Red Smoke Beast, much taller than the Earl. The momentum is overwhelming.

If you can get hundreds of ships in just a few words, this is undoubtedly the most cost-effective way to 'build a ship'.

Count Geralt suspected that he had misheard, and he looked up at the Magic Mountain in surprise: The Magic Mountain wants to build a naval fleet, at least five hundred capital warships, a hundred logistics reserves and supply fleets, you know, the most powerful monarch on the continent of Westeros, has not reached five hundred warships. Robert Baratheon's peak martial age, in the most glorious years, the naval fleet did not have more than a hundred warships.

Count Geralt couldn't believe that the Magic Mountain had the intention of strengthening the navy?

Magic Mountain felt the need to add, so that Count Geralt had a certain sober understanding: "Lord Earl, I have captured more than 270 warships of the Iron Islands in the port of Lannisport in the west, plus more than 100 of them here, it is almost the same as the target of 500 warships. Please please help me this time. "Magic Mountain said it politely, but the tone was actually not polite at all, and he definitely didn't mean to discuss with Count Geralt.

When he says it, he'll do it!

"Lord Gregor, you don't think this will work, you take half of the trading ships of the Vale nobles in the harbor. The trading ships on the other side of the Narrow Sea also asked the Duke to let them go. I don't want to leave a notoriety that affects the flow of goods from outside and the flow of our goods out. “

"Alright!" said the Magic Mountain, "I will choose a ship according to the flag, and if there are two or more trading ships in the same family, I will keep one for them." ”

It was someone else's ship, but in the blink of an eye, it became a favor from the Magic Mountain!

Count Geralt mummmmmmmm

In fact, the trading ships of the nobles of the valley were not owned by the Geralt family, and they were lost, and they had little to do with the Grafson family. The only thing that can be affected is a short-term reduction in trade, which affects the taxes of Lord Earl and the Arryn family.

Behind the Magic Mountain and Count Geralt, the Clegon Legion slowly entered the city, and the first to the city were the Clegane cavalry, with the heavy cavalry in front and the light cavalry led by Angel and Julie behind.

In the city, every household has closed its doors and windows. The streets were empty, and there was not a single idle person. The Magic Mountain has entered the city, and his notoriety is so great that people are afraid to avoid it.

"Lord Duke, the valley has been submitted, and you still want to take away the trading ships of the valley nobles, I am afraid that it will stir up resentment and affect the unity of His Majesty the King. ”

Magic Mountain stared at Count Geralt: "My lord, without Robert Arryn's oath of allegiance, without the surrender document of the Lord of the Vale, or even a letter of submission from the lord's seal, this surrender that Littlefinger asked you to convey is not very sincere. “

"Duke Robert Arryn's letter of surrender will take time, my lord. ”

"Yes. The Magic Mountain's scrutinizing gaze looked directly at Count Geralt. He found the Count's 'political wisdom' limited.

You must know that the greater the threat of the Magic Mountain to the valley, the more destruction and seizure everywhere, the more helpless the valley is, the more Littlefinger can gain the power to control the valley. This is the 'inside and outside' of a red face and a white face. When the nobles of the valley have no way to deal with the 'nonsense' of the Magic Mountain, Littlefinger comes forward, if only he has a way to 'solve' the Magic Mountain through negotiation, then Littlefinger's prestige will naturally be erected.

The Magic Mountain decides that the one who clicks Littlefinger - Count Geralt needs to understand this truth - Littlefinger comes to marry Rysa Tully, and it is not the terrible fat woman who he wants to marry, but the valley.

Count Geralt is willing to follow Littlefinger, naturally in order to protect his own Seagull Town and the interests of the family, with the strength of the Demon Mountain, even if the Earl does not open the door and chooses to fight, it is just to delay the time for the Magic Mountain to enter the city.

"Lord Count Geralt, I have heard that the nobles of the Vale are strongly opposed to Littlefinger marrying Rysa Tully. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

"That's the real reason why I'm here with my troops. Demon Mountain deliberately lowered his voice and said, "The nobles of the valley need a great lesson. ”

The look of the suppressed voice and the taste of secrecy naturally carried the shadow of conspiracy, which really made Count Geralt immediately follow in the footsteps of Littlefinger and the magic mountain.

"As you wish, Lord Duke. "Count Geralt cleanly put an end to the false pretenses on these 'minutiae'. It turned out that the Magic Mountain was indeed the man of Lord Petyr Berry, and he led his troops here to cooperate with Duke Petyr to subdue the nobles of the Valley.

To marry Lysa Tully is to marry Vale, and Count Geralt knows this very well.

Moshan sighed in his heart. The political wisdom of the Graffson family is limited, and Count Geralt's father betrayed his lord and was killed by the former King Robert in a battle, but the gears of fate have tightly bitten their family, and they still have the luck to stand tall in Seagull Town.

"My lord, I have one more small matter, and I hope to get help from adults. Magic Mountain said again.

The Magic Mountain has never said that it is going to send troops to attack Runestone City!

Lord Petyr said that he hoped that the Magic Mountain would attack Runestone City immediately, but the Magic Mountain was indifferent and did not say a word. Count Geralt felt a little wary in his heart.

"Your Excellency, you may say that as long as I can help, I will do my best to help, and if I can't help, I will find a way to help you. “

Count Geralt's words were beautiful.

"For a small matter, I'll borrow a hundred local seadressers from Seagull Town from Lord Earl. “

Seagull Town's tailoring skills are unique in the Seven Kingdoms, and the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms wear the most high-end silks and all kinds of elaborate dresses, almost all of which are sewn in Seagull Town. Most of the clothing of the common people is sewn here in batches, and then flows to the markets all over the country through the waterway.

The food, clothing, housing, and transportation of the people seem ordinary and ordinary, and no one cares about them, but in fact, they are all major events. Only on the basis of consolidating the food, clothing, housing, and transportation of the people can we build a strong military and economic force.

Count Geralt immediately agreed: "If you want the tailors of Seagull Town, I will give you two hundred tailors to take away." “

The most ordinary craftsman in Seagull Town is the tailor. Almost every commoner here is a tailor who can cut and make clothes. Many tailors also sailed to the other side of the Narrow Sea to shop and make clothes for a living, but Seagull Town has always been a strong base for tailors. Two hundred tailors are not as good as a hundred boats, and they are not as good as tens of thousands of golden dragons and hundreds of carts of grain. The golden dragon and the grain, the magic mountain opened to borrow, even if it was a united front person, in the face of the wicked demon mountain, Count Gero had to give more or less.

And the local tailors, ordinary civilians, give a hundred more people and the magic mountain to make a good heart!

"Thank you for your generosity. Since the Lord has promised to give me the ship and the tailor, I will not borrow the golden dragon and food from the Lord of Lordship, but I will go to Runestone City tonight and borrow some money and food from Count Royce. ”

"I'd like to help you attack Runestone City at night, and we can disguise ourselves as pirates to hide our eyes, my lordship. ”

"No, I will put up the banner of the Clegon and the banner of King Tommen after I have captured Runestone. The Magic Mountain said lightly, "The valley needs true submission! The nobles who oppose Littlefinger must be conquered." If the adults weren't Littlefinger's most loyal allies, I think I'd slaughter Seagull Town. “

Magic Mountain glanced at Count Geralt indifferently, but it made the count smile on his face, but a cold sweat broke out on his back.

Eagle's Nest.

The famous swordsman Lynn Corbray decided to take the first leg of the Eagle's Nest down the mountainside road.

When he went up the mountain and sat in the hanging basket through the clouds, he looked down, the bottom was not visible, and when he looked up, the cable above his head went deep into the clouds, and the sound of the winch rattled down from the clouds, giving people the illusion that the rope would break at any time.

The winch is set up in an underground room under the kitchen of Eagle's Nest City, a rattan hanging basket, and it can only sit up and down for up to three people at a time, and there are not many people who can't put it in their pockets, and this time there are not many people who go down the mountain in anger. In addition to Bronze Jon's party, Lynn's brother, Earl Cobray, also descended the mountain, refusing to attend Lyza and Littlefinger's wedding.

Earl Redwin of the Red Base also chose to go down the mountain. The Red Base is not far from Seagull Town, and if the Demon Mountain breaks out and shatters Seagull Town, it will be easy to target the next attack at Red Base, and Earl Redwin will have to go back and prepare for defense.

With so many people, everyone finally decided to take the mountain road carved out in the belly of the mountain to the top of the mountain under the leadership of Mia Shidong.

Bronze Jon Royce chose to walk by Earl Redwin's side. The two adults walked in the back seat.

"My lord, when Littlefinger and Lady Lyza are married, I believe he will soon become the Guardian of the Canyon. "What do you think of this?"

"I can't accept Littlefinger being the Guardian of the Canyon. Earl Redwyn confessed, "Littlefinger is here to seize the power of our Valeers, and I believe the Lord sees this very clearly." “

"Lord Redwing, I plan to form the 'Alliance of the Righteous', oppose Littlefinger becoming the guardian of the canyon, oppose Littlefinger becoming the guardian of Duke Robert, and oppose him and Lady Ryza Tully to rule the valley together, I wonder if the Lord is willing to join hands with me?"

"I don't hesitate to side with Lord Royce!" Count Redwin immediately stated.

"Count me in. Lynn Corbre from the front shouted, "My lord, I'm going to join your Alliance of the Righteous. ”

Lynn Cobray was even thinner, like the 'Lady of Silence' around his waist, a notoriously disliked woman among the Vale aristocracy, and his shoulder-length brown hair seemed to hint at his temper. He stalked Lyza Tully in Eagle's Nest City for more than half a year, and after trying his best, he finally failed to defeat Littlefinger and found nothing, which is really a deep resentment.

"And me!" said Count Leonor Cobray, too, "Lord Royce, how could I be without me in the matter of opposing Littlefinger. ”

"Thank you for your willingness to join the Alliance of the Righteous, I have already united Countess Anya Weywood of Iron Oak City, Knight Simon Tamperton of Nine Star City, and Count Beneda Belmore of Hongge City, after I descend the mountain, I will gather the soldiers of the Royce family to besiege the Eagle's Nest City first, and cut off the road to deliver supplies to the mountain. ”

*

Royce's statement was too bold, and the military force on the palace was tantamount to a frenzied temptation on the verge of rebellion.

Earl Redwing, Sir Lynn, and Earl Leonor Cobray were all stunned.

Royce dared to speak out publicly, indicating that he just wanted the news to spread to Littlefinger. It's also a form of pressure.

Lady Lysa Tully saw too simple the opposition of the nobles of the Vale against Littlefinger, with Littlefinger by her side, Lysa Tully trusted Littlefinger for everything, she thought that there was no problem that Littlefinger could not solve, this may be true, Littlefinger did see through Royce's mind, he had already sent a message to the Magic Mountain, so that the Magic Mountain took Royce's lair first: Runestone City!

The power game in the valley kingdom is starting to heat up. Previously, Littlefinger was alone in the valley facing the situation of the heroes supporting alone, but now that there is an additional foreign aid Demon Mountain, he is naturally more fearless.

*

"My lord, Seagull Town and the Magic Mountain are eyeing you. We should make peace with the Magic Mountain first, and then drive Littlefinger away. Earl Redwin said. Redwyn was always worried about Red Base being attacked by Magic Mountain. Magic Mountain is a villain with little reputation, and he has already come to the Red Base to blackmail once last year, and Earl Redwin is worried that Magic Mountain will be more comfortable with his second visit.

"Count Redwin, when I return to Runestone, I will immediately send a raven to Count Geralt, and we will make a peace agreement with the Magic Mountain, if the Magic Mountain is not easy to get along with, I have the heart to swear to submit to the King of the North, so that the Riverlands and the Vale can be united, and I am not afraid of the Lannisters and the Magic Mountain. ”

The nobles of the Vale, most of whom are close to Stark in their hearts and disgusted with the Lannisters!

In the royal palace, it is still the world of the Lannister family. It is reported that Cersei Lannister has returned to King's Landing to assist her son in the throne.

When Royce said this, he clearly represented the wishes of the nobles such as Knight Simon and Lady Anya Weywood.

"My lord, I'm worried that the Stark family is too far away, and the Magic Mountain is here. "Earl Redwin was always worried about that.

Ahead, Lynn Cobray and his party had disappeared, because of the rugged terrain and narrow mountain roads. Walking down in the belly of the mountain, they also carried torches.

"Count rest assured, the Alliance of the Righteous is a whole, I will hold the first meeting of the Alliance of the Righteous in Runestone City, when the time comes, everyone will be twisted into a rope, salute first and then soldier, there is no need to be afraid of the Demon Mountain. ”

“...... It's ......" Earl Redwin's inner worries were hard to dissolve.

Royce saw Earl Redwing's worries, Royce was not afraid of the Magic Mountain, he decided to win over the Redwin family, among the more than 100 nobles in the Valley, the Redwin family in the Red Base is very strong, and it is one of the eight major families in the Valley.

"Lord Earl, the squire with Lynn Cobray is your youngest child, Sir Michelle Redwin. ”

"Yes, Lord Royce. “

"Can Sir Michelle be married?"

"Not yet, sir. ”

"Oh, I have a little girl, I have invited a scholar to teach her poetry and book etiquette since she was a child, she is fourteen years old this year, she is the pearl of my palm, and she has not yet been married, if Earl Redwin does not dislike it, I have the heart to marry my little girl to Sir Michelle, I don't know ...... adult. ”

"Is Miss Athena Royce?" said Earl Redwin, surprised and delighted.

"Yes. ”

"I can't ask for it, my lord. ”

Miss Athena Royce is known for her talent, small and delicate in stature, beautiful in appearance, elegant in temperament, and knowledgeable.
