Inside the Oak City of the Weywood family.

Sir Donnell Weywood said, "Mother, we cannot withstand the attack of Lord Will's vast army. ”

Anya Weywood looked around at the generals in the main fort, and none of them had the air of a decisive battle on their faces.

"Lord Will can break the Blood Gate, and we really can't defeat them. Lady Anya looked at the castle and looked at the half of the sky that was red by torches.

"The guards on the walls don't have any faith, Mother. Donnell said.

When the heir to the family, Sir Morton Weywood, left for the South, Donnell was the backbone of the family. He had no intention of fighting, and the knight generals who accompanied him were all dejected.

"But Morton is in the hands of Kevon Lannister!" Lady Anya expressed her concern.

"Kaivon won't kill Big Brother Morton. He will only find a way to win the heart of the eldest brother, not the other way around. The great nobles of the Valley are all together, and if Kaivon wants to make a move against the eldest brother, it will cause suspicion among the other nobles in the Valley, which is likely to provoke a mutiny in his legion. Moreover, there are also legions in the north in Kaifeng's coalition army, and he can only encircle them, otherwise it will only cause everyone's joint resistance and cause the legion to mutiny. Donnell said.

Donal's vision was as brilliant as his military brilliance.

When Blackfish Brynden Tully was still the Bloodgate General, Donnell was Blackfish's most important right and left hand, and after Blackfish left, he became the Bloodgate General. His military talent was admired by Blackfish Brynden Tully. Judging by his analysis, his political talent is also good.

Mrs. Anya was silent. As long as Morton is in Kayvon's hands, virtually anything can happen.

Donnell continued: "Mother, if we insist on fighting to the death, we will be slaughtered, and the Weywood family may cease to exist in the future. Mother, I don't think Kevon Lannister will be able to sit on the Iron Throne, and our own alliance with them is only for the sake of Brother Morton. Tomman secretly reigns in the Eagle's Nest, unbeknownst to the outside world. After Lord Will takes the valley plains, as long as he holds the Giant's Spear, at the end of autumn, Tommen of Eagle's Nest must come down the mountain to survive the winter, otherwise they will all freeze to death. Mother, the final victory will definitely be on Will's side. ”

Lady Anya stood up and turned her back to the family generals: "Donal, if we surrender, will Lord Will be embarrassed for us?" ”

"I don't know if Lord Will will embarrass us, we can choose to negotiate first, and if the negotiation fails, we will fight him to the death. At that time, the soldiers and people of the city knew that they would die, and if they all worked together, he would have to pay a heavy price if he wanted to take our castle. At the same time, we sent a raven to tell the Lannisters in Eagle's Nest and the other nobles in the Vale, saying that Lord Will has come to slaughter us, and there is no way to survive if we don't resist, and the Lannisters in Eagle's Nest will definitely seize this opportunity to join the other nobles in the Vale in the name of Rysa Tully to resist. Donnell said.

Mrs. Anya always turned her back to everyone and refused to turn around again: "Okay, Donal, you are in charge of this matter, whether it is war or peace, you have the idea." ”

"Yes, Mother!"

Donnell knelt down on one knee to answer the order, then got up and hurried out, giving orders as he went—to move out of the castle basement and put all the oil piled up on the city walls, and for all the boys of every family who had reached the age of ten to go up to the city to defend the enemy, and all the adult women to go up to the city to help defend the gates.

He led more than a dozen family guards to the stables, and everyone got on their horses, and then ran towards the city gate, and along the way, the whole city was noisy, men, women, and children ran and shouted, soldiers lined up to the city wall to set up defenses, and the heralds ran back and forth in the streets, and the heralds all took up arms.

Donald took the lead, the gates were wide open, and he rushed out. Behind him, more than a dozen dead soldiers of the family followed closely, and as soon as they left the city gate, the city gate was quickly closed.

Donal's group held torches high and greeted the fire dragon in the distance.

Sou!

An arrow whistled and landed at a distance, clearly a warning and not intended to shoot someone.

Donald reined in his horse, his head tilted, and his guards shouted in unison, "Sir Donald Weywood of Oak City has come to meet Lord Will." ”

The sound of horses' hooves sounded, and a stout woman led dozens of horses with a big axe galloping: "Is it Sir Donal?"

"Exactly!"

"I'm Maggie Mormont, the spearhead of the Prime Minister and Robb Stark, and I want to meet the Prime Minister. ”

After Her Majesty Shireen appointed Will as Prime Minister, Petyr the Littlefinger released the few ravens on the Five Fingers Peninsula, and after Will took Seagull Town, he released more ravens, and the ravens spread the order that Will be the new Prime Minister throughout the Seven Kingdoms.

"Yes, please Mrs. Maggie to take me to the Prime Minister. ”

"Well, your guards must all lay down their arms and join our army, and then I will accompany you to the Prime Minister. ”

"Yes!"

With a wave of his hand, the guards around him untied their swords and bows and threw them on the ground. With a wave of her hand, more than a dozen of her axe soldiers rushed forward, surrounded Donal's guards, and led them to the legion.

Maggie said, "Lord Donal, your sword must be handed over as well. ”

Donnell sighed inwardly, "Yes, Lady Maggie. He unsheathed his sword and handed it to Maggie Mormont.

"Please come with me, sir!" Maggie Mormont took the sword.

The two rode their horses and galloped towards the rear.

Donnell saw the soldiers with two torches in their hands, and in the array of hundreds of axemen, he saw hundreds of Vale soldiers, who had rebelled against Vale and surrendered to Will's legion.

Two torches per person, then the estimated number of Will's huge legion based on the torches is actually halved.

It turned out that Lord Will deliberately added torches, so that the nobles of the valley saw the sparks in the sky, so that everyone was in danger, no one dared to lead the family soldiers out to meet such a powerful legion, plus the blood gate that could never be broken was taken, everyone was frightened, and no one dared to take the initiative to face the battle, the nobles of the valley under strong pressure, became a plate of scattered sand, everyone only thought about how to survive, how to find a balance between Lannister and Will, just like himself, there was no will to fight.

Under normal circumstances, three or four soldiers lighting one torch is enough to light the way, but Will is two torches per person, which is obviously a very clever military strategy, and at night, everyone can only see the light of the torch, and the person holding the torch cannot be seen clearly.

But Rao, the strength of the Will Legion was enough to crush the less than 1,000 troops of Oak City.

The herald's message went faster than Maggie and Donal's horses, and Will led his guards to meet them.

This was Donal's second meeting with Will, the first time in the Eagle's Nest, when Lord Eddard Stark came to the Eagle's Nest to convince Lysa Tully to send an army against the West.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister. Donnell dismounted and got down on one knee.

Will also jumped off his horse and helped Donnal up: "Lord Donal, are you here to fight or peace?"

"Oak City sincerely seeks peace. Donnell Weywood said. Naturally, his family doesn't use the word lower, only the word he, but Will doesn't have to.

He was grateful to Will for replacing the word with and for fulfilling the honor of the Weywood family.

In the entire valley, the one who pays the most attention to the etiquette of false names is the Weywood family.

Will motioned for Maggie Mormont to speak, and if Melisandre was around, he wouldn't use Will to gesture.

Maggie Mormont immediately understood: "Lord Donal, the Prime Minister has accepted the peace sued by the Weywood family, and you can be exempted from the punishment of defecting to the Lannisters, but the Weywood family must lead the family knights and generals in the Oak City Sanctuary to swear allegiance to Her Majesty Shireen, and swear to obey the hand of the king appointed by Her Majesty Shireen, and guard the whole territory, Lord Regent Will." ”

Donnell said respectfully, "The Weywood family swears allegiance to Her Majesty Shireen, and is at the mercy of the king, the guardian of the whole territory, and Lord Regent. ”

Will said: "Sir Donnell, I have received a secret report that Jaime Lannister controls the nobles of the Vale in the name of Rysa Tully in the Eagle's Nest, and he has either ordered, or induced, or used money, or knighthood to give the land, and so on, to win over a large number of nobles in the Vale to obey him. The Reuss are willing to ally with the Lannisters because the Lannisters promised that after Tomman sat on the Iron Throne, Royce would replace the Arryns as the new lords of the Vale, and you know these things?"

Donnell said: "Your Excellency, I just heard some rumors, and I don't know the details. ”

"But I got the word that Weywood had also taken up the Lannisters. ”

"Yes, we are only temporarily submitting, the heir of the family, Morton Weywood, has responded to the call of Lord Eddard Stark to go south to conquer Tyrrell, and now all the nobles who have gone south in the Vale have been in the hands of Kevon and Tyrrell, and Kaivon threatened Morton's life, and we pretended to join in, and verbally admitted that Tomman Baratheon was king in the Eagle's Nest. But we didn't take an oath. ”

The Weywood family is known for its honor and etiquette, and Donnell said that he did not go to the Eagle's Nest to take the oath, fearing that the family's heir, Morton Weywood, would first form a verbal alliance in case of misfortune, which is logically credible.

Will said: "Sir Donal, as far as I know, at the moment Kaivon is leading the coalition army, with the assistance of the powerful Golden Knights, he has conquered the whole of the Stormlands, the Stormlands and the Tyrells army is enveloping the combined forces of the Vale, the North and the Riverlands, and is heading for King's Landing, he may take control of the Red Keep in a few days and get the Iron Throne, but he can't take Tommen Lannister to the Red Keep to sit on the Iron Throne." I'll take down the Eagle's Nest and capture Jaime and Cersei, and I'll need the help of the Weywood family. ”

Although it seems that Kaivon controls the multinational coalition army except for Dorne, in fact, there is only one skinning man Luce Bolton in the Northern Legion, and there are almost no important people in the legion of the Riverlands, all of them are insignificant minor nobles, the Vale Legion has the largest number of people, and there are also people who go with some weight, and Kaivon Lannister is most attentive to the nobles of the Vale. And Jaime appeared as a valley master, controlling all the information between the valley and the outside world, and secretly controlling the valley.

It's just that this control of Jaime collapsed with a bang as the impossible blood gate was broken, which was a change that Kavon and Jaime himself did not expect.

The Bloodgate of the Valley, the only surrender in thousands of years, was to be coerced by the dragons of House Targaryen. For 8,000 years, the neck of the north that could not be broken from the land, the blood gate that could not be broken in the valley for 6,000 years, and the impregnable Harrenhal that took forty years to build, all surrendered under the dragon claws of the Targaryen family.

Will has no dragons, and with the help of two griffins, he also takes down the unbreakable Blood Gate, shattering Jaime and Kaivon's wishful thinking. Kevon was able to take control of King's Landing and the Red Keep, but King Tommen, whom he had secretly sworn undertook, could not make it out of the valley. - The Bloodgate is in Will's hands.

Meanwhile, in King's Landing, on the edge of the royal forest on the banks of the Blackwater, Kevon Lannister walks around his military tent.

It's been some time since he's been receiving news of the total fall of the West.

He couldn't sleep.

For days on end, he couldn't sleep.

The Lannisters were wiped out by Will in a matter of time—the Mar Bran family was wiped out, leaving no children or women behind, and the last of the Craich family bloodlines in the Chicken Hall were wiped out, and Mellon Craich's head was stuck in a spear and hung on the head of Castle Rock.

The traitors Clegane and Pyne regained their territory and divided all of the southeastern and southwestern territories of the West, while the decaying Westerlings took over all of the northern part of the West, including all of Casterme of the Reyes and Tarbeck of Tarbey Hall.

The most intolerable thing for Kaivon was Mullen, a branch of the Lannisters in Lannisterport, who defected to Will and took possession of the Lannisters' castle of Castle Rock and occupied all of the Lannisters' territories, while the territories in the east of the Westside were all occupied by the Ryford family of Golden Tooth, including the territory of the Mar Bran family in the middle of the West.

The entire western realm was cut into five large watermelons by Will with a wave of his hand.

This plan is too vicious for any nobleman to be willing to spit out the territory they have in their hands again.

And the sea and islands in the west were also rewarded by Will to the Farman family of Fairy Island. The Farman family, who had always been disloyal to the Lannisters, suddenly received a huge benefit, and the only thing that Kaivon did not expect was that Janine Farman became the Earl of Fairy Island, swearing allegiance to the damned Night's Watchman.

The western part of the base camp was completely destroyed, all the nobles loyal to the Lannisters were executed, and the rebellious nobles all received great benefits, which made Kaivon sleepless all night, and he walked back and forth in the military tent for an unknown number of years.

It wasn't until dawn that Kaivon finally made his decision.

He let the ravens fly!
