Chapter 0904 - Dividing and Combining: Breaking Through
"No!" said the old butler, "you have taken the domain of Earl Edric Dayne, and even if he had the heart to surrender, he would never surrender. ”
"Not necessarily. Will said: "The Dane family's territory will definitely be stripped away, and all the subjects who submit to Her Majesty Shireen will receive their own land, shops, and the rest will be beheaded." And for magistrates, anyone can run for office, including the people of the Dane family. The magistrate will have a certain amount of land, taxes, and state money, and the state will allocate money to him to build a garrison belonging to the state. Edric Pine still has a chance to surrender and become a prefect. ”
"You burned his Starfall City!" the old butler pointed at Will, trembling at the rope.
"Yes, because he is now on the side of the Martells, he is a traitor!"
Jaime said, "Old butler, we will not only burn his Starfall City, but all of his title deeds. ”
"Whoever leases the land of the Dane family and submits to us, that land is theirs, and will always be!" said Will, "and we will give you the king's land grant after the conquest of Dorne." If you don't want to accept it, you can stand this way!" Will stretched out his hand to circle a clearing.
"Who wants to take sides, remain loyal to the Dane family?" Jaime said lightly.
No one stood in the designated area, and anyone who entered was beheaded.
"Okay, since everyone is willing to surrender, then we don't have to bother, come here. ”
Two guards ran up.
"Burn down all the Dane family's title deed real estate culture. ”
"Yes, Prime Minister!"
The two guards lifted boxes of documents and threw them all into the fire.
The old butler was powerless to stop this, he turned and walked towards the burning Starfall City, but Benjamin blocked it: "Old man, do you want the flames to burn yourself?"
"Get out of the way, sir. ”
"Okay, I'd love to, let me help you!" Jaime laughed. He got out of the way, and the old man walked past him, and some parts of Starfall City began to collapse in the fire, making a loud noise.
The old man's eyes glazed over, and he walked towards the burning Starfall City. Suddenly, a black shadow flickered in front of him, and he suffered a heavy blow, fell to the ground, and fainted.
"Come two brothers, and take him to the ship and keep an eye on him, and I hope to send him to Ariria Dane in Black Harbor, who is loyal to the Dane family, and I have come to help him fulfill this wish. ”

To the east of the continent, one of the most famous places to trade with free trade city-states such as Braavos on the other side of the Narrow Sea is Slatty Town.
There are several rivers in Dorne, and the outlet of one of the most important rivers is in the town of Plank. The Greenblood River connects the sea to the interior of Dorne, and many merchant ships enter from Slatty Town to the interior of Dorne.
Slatted Town was a place where Dorne traded with merchant ships from all over the world. It is larger and more populous than Shadow City, the town of Halberd, and is the closest local town in Dornedom to a real city.
One of the peculiarities of this town is that it is built entirely on the water, and the streets of the town are assumed to be planks on the water, and the original shops here are all kinds of merchant ships, yachts and boats all over the water. As more and more ships from the Free City-states on the other side of the Narrow Sea anchored in the harbor of Slatty Town, Prince Dorne built a castle near the town to guard the harbor.
Slatted Town was originally founded by the "orphans of the Greenblood River", who made their boat their home, built their foundations on the boat, built wooden houses on the boat, and rowed away when they needed to sell spices or fish.
The "Orphans on the River of Green Blood" follow the descendants of some of the Roynaians who crossed to Dorne by Nameliawan's boat, clinging to the beliefs and customs of their homeland and refusing to assimilate into Dorne culture. They refused to abandon the ship and go ashore, so they simply built wooden huts on the ship.
They adhere to the ancient tradition of the river in honor of the once mother river, Lorne. For them, Mother River Lorn is not only the source of life that nurtures them, but also a religious deity. Forced to leave their mother river, Lorne, on the other side of the Narrow Sea, they call themselves orphans.
The Lorne River is an inland river that flows through the territory of the free trade city-state of Valantis, and its mouth is in Valantis, and the river under the famous long bridge connecting the eastern and western cities of the Valantis city-state conquered by Daenerys and Will is the river Lorne.
The orphans of the Green Blood River usually hold boats along the Green Blood River and its tributaries to fish and pick fruits, and do whatever they do. Some of them fished and sold cloth and spices along the Greenblood River.
They followed the great warrior of the nation, Nymeria, but eventually became independent for the sake of traditional beliefs and founded the town of Plank. They were of the same origin as Nymeria's army of 200,000, and Nesmelia and later generations of Prince Martell allowed the Royna way of life.
When House Targaryen conquered Westeros, the First Dorne War took place, and Queen Rhaenys Targaryen rode a dragon to burn Slatted Town. When Daeron I Targaryen invaded Dorne, his admiral Erin Valerian led a fleet from the sea to break through Slatted Town and invade the interior of Dorne, allowing the Lesser Dragon King to win. After a revolt broke out in Dorne and overthrew Daerron's rule, Erin once again led his army against Slatty Town and the Greenblood River.
To choose a breach from the sea to the east to attack Dorne, the best strategic location is Slatty Town.
Although these Roynars only survived and multiplied through this river of green blood, and did not join the Martell family's army, they would take up arms and fight alongside the Martell family whenever they were needed in Dorne's war.
This time Will was determined to change Dorne's de facto independence, and Slatted Town became Mance Red's first point of attack from the east. The two armies of the navy that followed Mance Rader in his assault on Slatchy Town, one being the Unicorn Legion on the island of Skagus, were skilled in both land and naval warfare. The unicorn is at ease on the surface of the sea, good at swimming and attacking, and even more so in the river, this is a very powerful navy. Ordinary boats can break and enter the water after a unicorn strikes.
The second navy was the powerful navy of the Great Wall of Desperation, led by Asha Greyjoy, the commander of Donghaiwang, with a total of 5,000 men from the two armies, attacking the town of Slatch.
The Martell family built a military castle on the banks of the river in Slatch, and three hundred men were stationed there. The garrison of three hundred people is not terrible, the real strength is the 'descendants of the Roynadians' in Slatty Town, all of them are born naval soldiers, they are very good at water, they are not good at land fighting, regardless of men and women, everyone can swim in the water as if it were fun.
Mance Rader and Shanna took a dozen gray killers, they disguised themselves as merchants from across the Narrow Sea, and entered Slatted Town smoothly, spices and silk were the favorite of the merchants of Slatted Town, and it took them half a day to get acquainted with the people here. Red is also a big drinker, he is a natural singer, can sing a lot of Dorne songs, once when King Robert visited Winterfell, he entered Winterfell as a wandering singer to sing for King Robert and Duke Eddard, and stayed until the King and Prime Minister went south to King's Landing.
With this skill, Mance Rader and Shanna, who pretend to be husband and wife, quickly become the favorites of the hospitable and especially good singing and dancing townspeople of Slatty Town.
The Dorn soldiers stationed in the military fort were Dornish who loved to drink and have fun, and they were immediately rewarded with the friendship of Mance Rader after he gave them some of the wine, silk, and spices he had brought with him as gifts.
The Dornish have a penchant for lighting campfires in the evenings to meet their friends, and singing is not only Mance Rader's forte, but also Shanna's.
Mance came from the ice and snow outside the desperate Wall, but he was actually raised by the Night's Watch and influenced by the 'southern culture' on this side of the Wall, and although Elder Shanna was from the island of Skagas, she was actually raised and educated in Braavos, so that she pretended to be a lady from Braavos.
On the night of their invitation to the military fortress on the banks of the Green Blood River and the revelry of the soldiers, the tragedy of the killing begins again.

Chapter 0904-2 Slatted Town Bloodbath: Kill
The soldiers stationed in the military fortress of the Green Blood River were full of 300 men, but 200 were taken to the bone road to help Count Ellenwood defend the bone road, and the military plan of Prince Daolang and the Earl of Oberon was to bury the invading army of savages in the Crimson Mountains and not give them a chance to enter Dorne.
For the savages who grew up and were accustomed to living in the ice and snow outside the desperate Great Wall, when they came to the south, the first thing was that they were not adapted to the climate. In Dorne, it was hotter than in the south, and at noon, the warriors could not even wear their armor, and the sunlight would scorch the armor and then roast the people inside the armor.
Knowing the great difference in climate, Prince Michiro was not afraid of the army of tens of thousands of savages, and they were full of confidence that they would win this war.
In order to win the foolproof of beauty and victory, the military forces from all over Dorne were drawn to the Crimson Mountains.
The news of Dorne's spies in King's Landing and in the Stormlands of Riverbend was confirmed by the news of the nobles who had befriended the Martells: the southbound conquest of Dorne was dominated by the army of savages outside the Wall, supplemented by the Great Wall Legion of the Prime Minister Will, and about 40,000 troops came to invade Dorne.
In addition, no matter what the sources are, there has been no invasion of any other army.
When the military fort of Slatty Town was on fire in the middle of the night, none of the people who had not slept on both sides of the surrounding river bank and the 'Orphans of the Green Blood River' in Slatty Town were alert, they thought it was just an ordinary fire.
On the sea, the commander-in-chief, Asha Greyjoy, who saw the fire, gave the order to attack, so an unrivaled navy rushed into the harbor, and an army in front jumped from the warship into the water, they were the Skags riding two hundred unicorns.
Compared to the unicorn army, Slatted Town in its sleep is like a giant that has been crippled before it can react. The giant's body was wantonly bitten by the unicorn and attacked countless holes, and when the holes became more and more, the giant woke up from his sleep and was dying, and could no longer organize resistance.
Later, Asha's navy killed people without blinking, and the iron people were the vanguard, burning and killing the people in Slatted Town all the way, leaving no one alive. The people of Slatted Town who jumped into the water were like fish in the water, but the unicorn is a fierce beast that pounces on the fish in the water, whether it is an unfathomable sea or a river with a strong current, the unicorn moves quickly and quickly on the surface and underwater, and no one can match it. The horn on top of their heads is as hard and sharp as steel, and it is infinitely powerful, killing them instantly when they collide.
When the town of Slats burst into flames, the estuary of the Green Blood River literally became a river of blood.
It is useless to deal with Slatted Town, and it is useless to give land to the people of Slatty Town, this group of people who have not abandoned ships and submitted to Dorne's faith and power since they became independent from the time of Nemeria, so Will and Mance learned about this, and devised a strategy to kill them all.
This is a group of people who live independently of the wooden huts on the water, whether you are Martell or Targaryen or Shireen, who are difficult to surrender and are only willing to fight for the Martell family. They are a force for peaceful coexistence in the kingdom of Martell, and when Dorne is at war, they are still Dorn.
Mance Rader and Shanna came out of the military fortress and came out to kill one by one at the gate, and it was not long before all the hundred soldiers stationed at the military fortress were killed in battle, and none of them survived.
This time, Dorne's power must be wiped out, even if they want to make a comeback, they will have no vitality.
In an hour, the entire bustling town of Slats, which was built on the water, collapsed in a fire. Outside the town, there are lined up naval warships, and on both sides of the Green Blood River are the Skagos Legion riding unicorns. Whether it is in the water or ashore, they will all be killed. With the speed and combat power of the unicorn, the 'orphans on the Green Blood River', who are tough and good at water warfare, are strangled one by one, leaving no one behind.
Located in the south of the mouth of the Green Blood River, the home of the Nedat family, the lemon grove, has fallen without a fight!
Before dawn, Mance Rader and Shanna went up the Greenblood River and attacked the interior of Dorne, where the unicorn legion appeared, the people and nobles were all terrified, Manse Rader and Shanna were on both sides of the river, Asha led the warships along the river, and at dawn, they attacked the source of the Greenblood River, the place where the inland rivers of the Disaster River and the Vance River of the Greenblood River meet, there is a famous inland city: Divine Grace City.
The coat of arms of the House of Elion, Lord of Grace, is a red and black fan-shaped golden hand, and their family motto is "This is not the way".
And not far from the town of Plank, the capital of Dorne Yang Halberd City is sparsely armed, just by the sea, Prince Dorne Daolang is in the city, he was awakened in the middle of the night, pushed by the captain of the guard to the balcony in a wheelchair, and watched an army along the Green Blood River, burning and plundering all the way, as if in a no-man's land.
According to tactics, Mance Rader did not march into Halberd City, which was not far from Slatted Town.
