At night, Theon took a team of six cavalry from his uncle to explore the deep forest castle at night.

Theon rode his horse to the rear.

He wanted to break away from the Iron People and go to Robb Stark.

Although he is the adopted son of a hostage, his relationship with Robb Stark is as close as a brother. Robb trusts him and loves him.

But if he really leaves Iron People to join Robb, then, he will never want to return to the Iron Islands in his life, and he will lose his identity as the prince of the Iron Islands forever, and no matter how long he follows Robb, he will not be able to be surnamed Stark.

This annoyed Theon, but he couldn't seem to find anyone to hate.

Before he knew it, Theon was a little far away from the six-man team in front of him.

But he didn't want to catch up.

Earlier, Rodric's cavalry didn't mean to wait for him, everyone treated him as if he didn't exist.

The night in the Wolf Forest was dark, and six people in groups of three walked through the woods on both sides of the avenue.

Not far ahead is the Deep Grove Castle, a wooden castle despised by King Balon. Lord Balon considered the Deepwood to be the most vulnerable fortress in the North, and could be easily swept away without much effort.

The six scouts dismounted, tied their horses to the trees, and quietly approached the Deepwoods on foot.

A crossbow reached out from under the thorns in the darkness, the sound of the bowstring was clear in the woods, and a powerful crossbow bolt struck the back of the neck of one of the scouts, who lunged forward as if pushed down by an invisible hand.

Two of his companions were startled, and quickly turned to flee, several strong crossbows sounded, and in the trees, in the grass, in front of and behind him, several short arrows were shot, poof, puff, puff, and crossbow arrows were nailed into the bodies of the two scouts,

The three scouts on the other side of the road continued to move on.

Sou!

A long arrow shot out of the darkness, striking one of the scouts in the forehead.

The Iron Folk are not in the habit of wearing iron helmets, and at night, due to their vision, scouts hardly wear helmets. The line of sight is not very good, and it is even worse when wearing a helmet. When you look left and right, you are very limited.

The scout slammed backwards, straight down, and the arrow drove into his head with incredible power.

The other two scouts were shocked, they were also very experienced scouts, but they didn't notice any signs of anything unusual beforehand.

One of the scouts ran wildly, but flew forward, and suddenly a rope pulled up on the ground, and he fell dizzily, and as soon as he got up, a sword stabbed into his mouth......

The other companion had barely run a few steps before he was pierced through the body by a flying spear and pinned to the ground. The strength of the spear-throwers is incredible.

Theon Greyjoy walked forward slowly, his heart fluctuating, but he suddenly shuddered. Theon jerked his horse and looked around, but there was nothing unusual around, and the sound of the wind was blowing through the woods not far away.

Theon was inexplicably frightened, and the war horse under his crotch kicked the ground uncomfortably, snorting.

"Soldier!" Theon shouted, "are you there?"

The wind blew by, and the leaves in the woods rattled.

Theon's back was cold, a sign of extreme danger.

However, he did not notice anything unusual.

Szienle turned his horse's head, and this action accelerated the fear in his heart, and in the woods in front of the deep forest castle, it seemed as if a tiger was crouching in the dark, waiting for him to pass.

The spur on Theon's foot kicked the horse in the belly, and the horse was in pain, and shot out like an arrow.

Seeing that the situation was not right, retreat immediately, though Theon did not see any real threat.

On the sea, a hundred warships moved away from the shore of the deep forest fort.

The battleship swayed in the sea, and dozens of iron men who were in charge of guarding the battleship were drunk and fell asleep on the cabin.

Iron people are like a good drinker, and they drink to the fullest and get drunk every night without the restraint of their superiors.

It's a life they're used to.

A few small boats were silently approaching the fleet, and in the vast sea a few small boats were inconspicuous. When it was still far from the battleship, the boat stopped, and the people on board went into the water one after another, and in the water at night, the cold was like a knife.

But the men didn't seem to care about the cold, and their swimming skills were amazing, and many of them went underwater like fish, and it took a long time for them to emerge and get very close to the battleship.

The leader of this gang is Carter Pike, the commander-in-chief of the navy and castle commander of the East Sea Lookout, a real good brother of Will, who was born as a pirate, has amazing combat power, and his greatest characteristic is that he likes to take risks.

The group of people he led who swam as easily as if they were walking on the shore were the fishermen of the fishing villages near the sea in the jurisdiction of Donghaiwang and the Ghost Shadow Forest, and they were also the soldiers of the newly formed navy of Donghaiwang.

These people have grown up in the sea since they were young, and swimming and surfing are as common as eating and drinking. Donghaiwang is located in Seal Bay, Seal Bay has high winds and waves, and there are many reefs, it is the most complicated sea conditions and weather place in the narrow sea area, the fishermen on the seaside of the ghost forest and the hundreds of fishermen in the jurisdiction of Donghaiwang are all good water.

Carter Pike was born as a pirate leader, not to mention water-based, and after training in the very harsh waters of Seal Bay for so long, he was even more powerful, and the calm sea was like walking on the ground for him.

Carter Peck and his brothers popped up beside the battleship, and they climbed up one after another, boat by boat.

A hundred battleships were gathered together, connected to each other by ropes.

The ironmen guarding the ships were asleep on the flagship ship.

Carter Pike and his brothers were able to get to the flagship ship without a single guard. Looking at the Iron Men who had fallen on the cabin, Carter Pike smiled, put away his daggers, and said, "Tie them all up and gag them." ”

So, dozens of brothers worked together to tie up this group of drunk guys.

"These guys, after quitting drinking, are all good sailors. Carter laughed.

Will gave him a great ambition to build the most powerful fleet possible, and Will assured him that money was not the problem, then the problem was people. If you have money, you have boats, but you will only lack one thing: people.

Will is not optimistic about the Iron Min. But Carter Pick himself is the Iron Min, he knows the Iron Min, and he believes that the Iron Min, once in his hands, can become a true disciplined warrior on the sea.

Without bloodshed, without breaking a brother, or killing a single iron man, Carter Pike got a hundred warships, and he sang happily:

Bear, bear!

black-brown all over,

Covered with plush.

*

Oh, people are saying, come and meet the beauty!

He understands, but I'm a bear!

The whole body is black and brown, covered with plush!

*

The brothers echoed in unison, everyone laughed, and the song of the bear and the girl resounded through the sea.

A torch waved on the bow of the flagship ship, and dozens of small boats full of soldiers from the East China Sea Maritime Navy, sailed out one after another......
