Chapter 0706: Bloody Gate Night Attack
Midnight. Two griffons flew low, followed by a small army of thirty warriors, led by Will and Robb, each with a Valyrian steel sword.
The raiding legion consisted mainly of Ember warriors and freedfolk warriors.
The Ash Warriors and Freedfolk Warriors are familiar with mountain trails and are very experienced in climbing mountain slopes. They are also accustomed to walking mountain roads at night, and can do it quietly.
Will rode his griffon to the east, where he had determined that Petyr the Littlefinger had indeed conquered the Three Sisters through negotiations, and that he had led a ragtag army of nearly 5,000 men to reach the plains of the Valley, ready to strike a fierce blow at the nobles of the Valley.
Will's speculation about Littlefinger when he read the letter before was all right, and Will understood that Littlefinger's intention was a test of his and Robb's intelligence. Littlefinger had been subdued in terms of force, and in terms of scheming, he wanted to see if Will and Robb could see his little ninety-nine.
Will did not alarm the legions of Petyr on the ground, he rode his griffon and came quietly, and quietly returned.
As soon as Will returned, he immediately carried out a night attack, and did not notify Petyr the Littlefinger. Originally, the plan was for both sides to attack at the same time: one from the east and one from the west.
The Night Raiders had to climb to the top of the mountain, then drop the rope from the top of the mountain and fall into the Bloodgate Castle.
The peaks on both sides of the Bloody Gate Castle are tens of meters above the mountainside, and they cannot be climbed by manpower.
But with the help of the two griffins, Blaze and Aquamarine led a few people up at a time, and in just a few breaths, all thirty-one people reached the top of the mountain.
The height of tens of meters, but the distance of the griffin's wings, because it is too close, the griffin has no problem taking five or six people up and down at a time.
More than 30 people went up to the top of the mountain, lying on the top of the mountain and looking down, the Blood Gate Castle and the suspended military corridors on both sides were in full view.
There was a brazier on the city wall, and the soldiers sat around the brazier in twos and threes, and no one moved. There was silence in the castle, and the officers and soldiers fell asleep.
Since its establishment, the impregnable Castle of the Bloody Gate has only surrendered once, and that is when it faces the countless dragons of the House of Targaryen. In addition, the Bloodgate Castle has not been breached for 6,000 years.
Will and Robb unhurriedly lowered the rope and tied it to the rock.
In this raid, Tyron Ash led his ten most courageous Ash warriors, Black Girl Ash and Aber Ash led all of Will's guard warriors to the scene, and the remaining eight people were selected by the leader of the Free Folk Hardhead and the younger brother of Hardy to complete the six Free Folk Warriors, each of whom had a famous Valyrian steel sword in his hand. Will wields his own keel rappier.
Maggie Mormont led her family's axe men with 500 men to ambush on the mountain path outside the Bloodgate Castle, and as soon as they got the signal and the gates opened, they would launch a frontal surprise attack and rush in to occupy the castle.
The ensuing large force was led by Robb Stark's uncle Edmuthully and the archer Angay, and the Riverlands nobles led the family warriors.
Bloodgate Castle is not huge due to its topography, and the soldiers that can accommodate it are limited. Most of the soldiers were distributed in the air, and the soldiers stationed there were condescending, so the defenders of the Blood Gate were mainly archers.
The Stone Corridor and the Bloody Gate Castle are connected by a narrow enclosed stone passage, and if the archers staying in the suspended corridor come to reinforce them, they will only need a few swords and shields to defend one passage.
Will was the first to climb down the rope, and his two griffons flew in the night sky to guard their master.
Robb Stark followed.
Then the third and fourth ropes were dropped, but Tyron's massive body was more agile than the shadow lynx, and he knew that his weight was a problem, so the rope was just an aid, and he climbed down with his hands and feet, and the weight of his body was not on the rope.
His agility and speed were staggering, but the warriors of the Ash Tribe were not surprised, only the dog-headed Harmon and the others were amazed. The dog-headed Harver's eyes rippled with a woman's heart.
When Tyronn Ash and Jon Snow are on their mission to the Wildling King Mansred, Kobold takes a fancy to Tyron Ash.
By the time Will was approaching the castle, Taryn's Ashes had overtaken him.
Still some distance from the tallest castle tower, Tyron Ash jumped. Will and Robb and the others were taken aback, thinking that with the size of Taryn's ashes, he must make a loud noise when he jumped.
Although there are always two griffons in the sky, both Will and Robb want to sneak up on the enemy as soon as possible to find out about it.
Taryn Ash jumped down and tumbled forward into the dark shadow of the main tower as it landed.
Will and Robb didn't hear the loud noise they thought it would be.
Agile as a monkey and light as a bobcat, Tyron's sheer size is not his disadvantage at all. He had already looked out for a good position before he jumped, and the forward roll counteracted his momentum well. It was as if his hands and feet were like shadow lynxes, with pads of flesh that sucked out sounds.
Will and Robb couldn't help but look surprised, Taryn's ashes were so fierce.
By the time Will and Robb descended to the roof of the castle, Taryn Ash had silently pinched three soldiers to death, and his bodies were dragged into the darkness.
Will and Robb drew their swords and stood straight for the gates.
The Bloodgate Castle is not big, and the structure Tuwell and Robb have already remembered it.
Several ropes kept slipping down the brothers. As soon as they landed, they quickly split into two paths, one way to slaughter the soldiers sleeping by the braziers on the walls with the ashes of Tyron, and all the way to chase Will and Robb to capture the gates.
Two huge griffons flew and circled in the night sky above the castle without making a chirping sound. They also did not attack, it was not yet time to attack, they were waiting for the order of their master.
The slackness of the guards at Bloodgate Castle is astonishing. Will and Robb made their way to the city gates, and when the keel and Valyrian steel swords pierced the soldiers' necks, there was no movement in the nearby barracks.
Their days are too leisurely.
Lady Rysa Tully of the Vale was already in a half-mad and half-confused state, and Jaime Lannister was giving orders through the mouth of the Vale Masters, but he could not show up at the castle to supervise herself. The leaders of the guards at Bloodgate Castle are from Buck and Bernie from the West, which is a big reason why the Vale soldiers of Bloodgate Castle are reluctant to use their strength.
Jaime and Cersei knew that the Blood Gate could not be lost, so they used their own people, but this is also a big taboo, and if they use their own people, they have to use all their own soldiers. But Jaime and Cersei couldn't do that. A crippled western frontier can't draw out more soldiers, and their western frontier soldiers don't dare to enter the valley in an impressive number.
Will's twelve guards soon arrived, thirteen Valyrian steel swords and a keel sword went on a killing spree, and the sound of puff neck and chest piercing was frequently heard, and the bloody breath filled the air.
On the city wall, Tyron Ash led his ten warriors all the way forward, followed by Kobold Harlock and her freeman warriors, slaughtering all the way, and they quickly swept away the city wall in a short section. The quick-reacting soldier had barely drawn his sword when he was slashed in two by Tyron's ashes.
Tyron Ash pressed forward, and no soldier could stand in his way. The Valyrian steel sword in his hand is like a toy blade, swinging and slashing at will, like fish meat.
Under the city walls, Will's narrow sword and Robb's long sword swept away the leaves like a gust of wind, and they quickly killed a dozen sleeping soldiers at the city gate with twelve ash guards, and the black girl ash and the aber ash led the brothers to push the winch, and the sound of clicking open the city gate sounded, especially loud in the night sky.
Will and Robb took out the round shield on their backs and prepared to defend themselves. The defenders were mostly archers, who had to hold out until the gates were opened, mainly defending against the fire of archers from the side overhanging corridors.
Tyron Ash lit the fire with him, and the flame dropped the wall and gave the order to attack.
Meggie Mormont, who was in ambush outside the city walls, led her family's axemen to rise up one after another, and pounced like a black shadow towards the gate of the Bloodgate Castle.
The door clicked, and a crack opened very slowly.
Maggie Mormont was the first to squeeze in.
As far as the eye can see, there is an empty street, there are no patrolling soldiers, and a lone torch burns in the street. Most of the place is in the shadows.
Maggie Mormont couldn't believe it, the famous Bloody Gate Castle of the Seven Kingdoms was so poorly defended, how could it be like this? The guarding general and the lord of the valley must be a rotten and incompetent fool.
Will gestured, pointing to the barracks to the left and right.
Maggie Mormont rushed out with a large axe in hand.
Sou!
An arrow flew out of the darkness and aimed at Maggie Mormont's face. The sharp arrow whistled, a very sharp iron whistle, which is exactly the iron whistle arrow that Divine Arrow Angai likes to use, which can make the enemy scared.
This arrow did not have the strength and speed of Angai, it was a whistle arrow that was used to wake the soldiers up for battle. The whistle alerted Maggie Mormont to her sideways, and the long arrow swept past Maggie Mormont's face with a whistle.
Woooooo
Another whistle arrow was fired, but no one was shot, and it was aimed at the main tower of the Blood Gate. This is the whistle arrow of the messenger chief.
Woooooo
A succession of whistle arrows flew out, aiming at the two suspended stone corridors connected to the castle.
A patrol guard on the street was awakened by the click of the gate, and six sentries fired iron whistle arrows in succession.
For a while, the iron whistle arrows flew everywhere, and the entire Bloodgate Castle woke up from its slumber. The military corridors hanging on both sides of the valley road also woke up from their slumber, and the sound of many soldiers running sounded, and the sound of bows, arrows and swords was endless.
Kobold and his eight warriors silently guarded the stone corridor passage on the left, while Tyron Ash guarded the right. The suspended stone corridor connected to the Bloodgate Castle is a completely enclosed passage more than ten meters long, and it is pitch black without lighting, and Tyron Ash leads his brother to guard in the darkness, silently.
Woooooooo
The windows of the main fortress of the Blood Gate opened, and the leader Buck (formerly the captain of the guard of the Demon Mountain) blew the horn. The drunken centurion Bernie (formerly the Magic Mountain Horse Boy) quickly got up from the bed, grabbed his sword and rushed out of the courtyard, and the wine in his stomach turned into a cold sweat.
The gates were already half open, and the black-pressed heads charged inside.
Maggie Mormont rushed through the streets wielding an axe, and the six Sentinel Archers had fled. There was chaos in the barracks on the left and right sides of the city gate, and the soldiers woke up from their sleep, scrambling for weapons, bows and arrows, and armor.
Then they encountered a powerful torrent of black iron, and the axe soldiers of the Mormont family split into two directions, and went straight to the barracks on the left and right, and the axes were cut down one after another, and the cruel pop sounded wildly. The soldiers in the barracks on both sides were originally long with bows and arrows, but in hand-to-hand combat they were crushed by axe men, and as soon as they clashed, the soldiers of the valley immediately collapsed.
Behind the axemen, the archers Angay and Edmuthuri commanded a large group of men and horses to rush in through the gate, and the shouts of killing rang out, which shook the earth.
Will blew the iron whistle on his chest, and the two griffons swooped down, and the boulder fell into the ranks of the enemy with a loud bang, and the night battle of the Bloody Gate officially began.
Will and Robb led the twelve guards out of the street battle of the large army and went straight to the main fort. Just now, the leader Buck pushed open the window and blew the horn to reveal his location.
Capture Buck alive and avenge Eddard Stark.
In the middle of the overhanging military stone gallery, there is a cave sunken into the mountain, in which lives Sir Michel Redford of the Valley. He is a young and handsome knight of the Redford family, a rare first-class swordsman in the Vale, and a young nobleman in the Vale, Robert Royce.
Michelle Redford is the general in charge of the defense of the promenade, in charge of the promenade archers. In his bed, his girlfriend of many years, Mia Shidong, slept.
Mia Shidong is Robert's illegitimate daughter in the Vale, and has been adopted as a righteous daughter by Ed Stark, giving her the surname Stark and the name Mia Stark. Eddard Stark died in her arms, and when Michelle led his soldiers to clean up the battlefield, Mia Stark chose to follow his former lover Michelle Redford.
This is a couple of lovers who used to be very sweet. Michelle was Mia's only hope in life, but that was before she became Stark.
The horn of the main castle of the Blood Gate woke up Michelle, and when he turned over and got up, and when he was naked to look for the sword, Mia Shidong's voice sounded coldly behind him: "Michelle!"
Michelle turned around, and Mia Stark stabbed his sword in both hands and stabbed it into his chest, in the front of his chest, and in the back.
"Mia!" Michelle Redford incredulous. He didn't understand what was going on.
"The Reddfords, the Royces, the Cobrays, the Weywoods, all the families that have taken refuge in the Lannisters are my enemies. ”
"You ......" Michelle collapsed with a bang.
"I'm no longer called Mia Shidong, I'm called Mia Stark. Mia's tears slid down her face and fell on her proud chest. This body, which was Michelle's unforgettable temptation, has now become terrifying.
Michelle felt her body fall, plunging into the deepest darkness.
During this time together, Mia Stark has learned all the secrets that Michelle knows, and at least seven of the nobles of the Vale have taken refuge in the Lannisters, and many more are waiting to see who will end up with the Iron Throne of King's Landing. And Michelle has also tactfully told Mia several times that his family has engaged the young lady of the Royce family for him, and he doesn't love Royce, but he has to marry her, but his heart belongs to Mia Shidong, and it will always belong to Mia Shidong alone.
Mia Shidong is no longer the ignorant and naïve girl, the pain of the bloody case made her quickly mature and decisive, she saw through Michelle's true intentions, he wanted to marry the young lady of the Royce family, so that he could climb the power of the Royce family, he also wanted to possess Mia and turn Mia into his lover. He had always called her Mia Shidong, and he didn't know that she was already called Mia Stark.
Michelle had been cheating on her feelings, and all his previous vows had been reduced to ashes in the euphemism that he had to marry Miss Royce.
Mia Stark watched her former beloved fall in a pool of blood, and the tears on her face dried up. Outside, a herald's voice called in: "Sir Michelle, enemy attack, enemy attack!"
Mia Shidong took one last look at Michelle, she took Michelle's clothes, armor and sword, and quickly dressed herself and put on her helmet.
