Chapter 0695 - Escape: Day and Night
"Ma'am. *with* dream *little* say .lā" A hand of fire stood behind Melisandre.
"Say!"
"Master Gavin Westerling has done his job. ”
"Oh. ”
"He took a boy away. ”
"Well, I saw it in the flames. ”
"What are we going to do?"
"He'll send the boy on the boat and wait on the boat by the sea, and don't let Gavin know that we already know about him. ”
"Yes, ma'am. ”

The New Five Great Families of the West: One Family: The Westerling Family of Crag Rock City, and the northern part of the Westlands is all his family's territory. Castelme and the Tabel Hall Territory were all under his family's control.
Two families: the Rainford family of Golden Tooth City, the eastern and central parts of the Westside are his family's territory, including all the lands and people under the Malbran family, and the burned brand city is all owned by the Rydford family.
The three major families are the Mullen Lannister family of Lannisterport, the former capital of the Lannisters, and all the territories under the jurisdiction of Kaiyan City. This is the most extensive aristocracy in the West, and it is also the family with the largest population of minor nobles and commoners.
The northeastern part of the Westlands belonged to the Pyne family, with Podrick Pyne as the Earl of the Realm. The northwest belonged to the House of Clegane, of which Sandor Clegane was the Earl of the Territory, and the House of Craich's Chicken Hall was also owned by the House of Clegane.
Mullen Lannister is the honorary leader of the five major families in the West, and usually has the power to issue decrees and convene meetings of the four major families. The Earl of Mullen was not yet the Duke of the West, and the Duke needed the approval of His Majesty Shireen after the Prime Minister's request, and the unanimous approval of the royal decree in the presence of at least three important royal ministers before it could officially take effect.
Since Mullen is not now a Duke appointed by His Majesty and the Prime Minister, his actual status is on an equal footing with Gavin Westerling, Leo Lyford, Sandor Clegane, and Podrick Pine.
In the conquest of the early western frontier, Mullen did not have a brilliant performance in the war, except for surrendering at the first time. His family's garrison was also stationed in Lannisport and only sent 500 men to join Will's coalition forces.
The Western Sea starts from the territorial waters of Fairy Island and goes all the way northwest to the Iron Islands, and has been fully assigned to the Farman family of Fairy Island. The Iron Islands were also given to the Farman family, provided that they eliminated Elon Greyjoy, a five-hundred-member cleric of the Iron Folk and the youngest brother of King Baron, who was hiding on Grand Wick Island.
Including the Faman family, the Western Frontier is currently divided into six territories, each of which controls one side. The Farman family has grown in stature and power like never before, and Lady Jane Farman is loyal to the new King and Prime Minister.

The Esplanade to the west leads from Castle Rock to the High Court, the capital of Riverland.
Melon Kreich with more than 2,000 people did not dare to stay, and hurried desperately day and night. The road was well built, wide and straight, but the march was not fast, for the fleeing nobles, who refused to leave behind too many possessions, loaded many wagons and stretched for two miles. Many aristocratic ladies and ladies walked all the way to breathe, and they who had never suffered were fine on the first day, but they couldn't stand it on the second day. Because even if they fell asleep that night, they hurried under Mellon's scolding, and slept in a bumpy carriage, naturally not as comfortable as sleeping in the castle at home.
After Meron Craich and his family's five hundred soldiers who were good at fighting were cut off in person, he kept sending his knights to urge the people in front of him to hurry up, no matter in the morning or noon, they were not allowed to stop to cook, and they were only allowed to eat bread. No one passing through any village or town is allowed to enter to rest, and no noble lady or lady is allowed to stop for a rest because of fatigue.
In such a desperate hurry, Mellon Craich offended almost all the nobles who followed him, and on the fourth day they entered a forest, and behind the forest was a plain, which was also the junction with the riverlands.
It had just rained heavily, the road after entering the forest was slippery, and everyone had to hurry continuously, even at night they had to light torches and walk non-stop, and the nobles all complained, the western realm was very large, and Will was attacking all parts of the western realm, even if he was fast, it was impossible to chase him to the border of the western realm, everyone wanted to rest in the forest, rest their feet and eat something, but Mellon Craich couldn't help but say, and ordered his soldiers to whip the grooms and servants of the major families, and drink them to continue to advance.
This caused discontent and clashes broke out in the forest. More and more people are accusing Mellon Craich of being arbitrary, and many have expressed regret for fleeing with him.
Mellon Craich said sharply: "Will the thief has a griffin, who can be the griffon's opponent?" The griffin's wings flutter for hundreds of miles, and if you want to survive, quickly order the groom and the servants to hurry." If you don't want to live, or if you regret abandoning your home and running away, then please go back, I will go by myself. ”
The little nobles looked at each other.
Leaving Mellon Craich, they didn't dare.
But how could one man and two griffons really be so powerful, and they could deal with a team of two thousand people? No matter how they thought about it, these nobles couldn't believe it. A lot of the rumors are boasted about, and everyone adds their imagination to the rumors they hear, and then things go completely sour.
But Mellon Craich was really angry, and no one wanted to go against his words. He is the core of the team, and his clan legion is also the strongest.
"Since no one has spoken out against it, let's keep going. Jeka, which groom or servant shouted tired, didn't listen to the command, and killed him!"
"Yes, sir!"
Choke!
Jacka drew her sword.
His squad, a total of twelve horsemen, drew their swords together.
The crowd changed color.
"Leave immediately, this is a military order, in my ranks, no matter how high or low, those who do not obey the order, behead!" Mellon Kreich shouted with his sword drawn.
One by one, the heralds shouted, and the stopped procession set off again.
Syllable!
A driver who moved a little slower was severely whipped with a horsewhip.
Mellon Craich shouted, "Hurry up, keep walking, as soon as you enter the territory of the Tyrells, I will let you rest well." ”
Zheng!
In the sky, a metallic sound resounded through the sky.
War horses, cattle and other animals immediately panicked, and the oxen pulling the cart ran into the forest, and the goods on the ox cart fell one after another. The frightened horses jumped up and scurried into the forest.
The ranks immediately went into disarray.
Soldiers, nobles, men and women, ladies and ladies all looked up and looked at the sky. All of them were terrified.
At the front was a light cavalry to clear the way, and the cavalry struggled to control the frightened horses. Griffins are the natural predators of horses, and there is no way to do this, and any well-trained horse will go limped on all fours when they hear the griffin's chirping, and they will be terrified.
Horses are the griffin's favorite food.
Zheng!
There was another cry clinging to the forest sky, and a huge black shadow flew past, clinging to the treetops of the forest, and the wind that it brought up made the leaves rattle.
Many people saw a pair of dazzling blue eyes through the gaps in the leaves, which was dazzling. The body of a flying beast more majestic than a lion was above their heads, and a powerful sense of oppression came over them.
The horses of the cavalry all lost control, jumped and roared, threw their masters off their horses, and ran madly into the forest.
Call!
A boulder slammed down on Mellon Craich, who had just risen from the ground.
Click, click!
The sound of branches breaking was heard intensively.
A dark shadow with a fierce wind continued to magnify in Mellon Cracher's eyes.
