Chapter 340: Keep Snow(1/2)
Chapter 334 Leaving Snow
The Hejian Land is very similar to Jingzhou and has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times.
It borders the Northland to the Neck to the north, the Moon Mountains to the east and the Vale, the Ironborn and the Westerlands territories to the west, and the Blackwater River to the south and borders the royal family of King's Landing.
Although there are mountains to the east and west and a large river to the south, it is generally more conducive to the defense of the opponent's forces (Golden Tooth City, the gateway to the west, and Carlin Bay have never been captured from the south, let alone the valley).
Therefore, this area has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times, and any war will almost spread to the Riverlands.
The Riverlands have many rivers, fertile land, and a large population. It is also the intersection of the four directions. It is an area with excellent agricultural and commercial development. Most of its princes are wealthy merchants, rich farmers, and landowners (the Frey family, etc.) who charge fees for their land.
.
Perennial wars have changed the princes of the Riverlands one after another, causing the princes in the region to have an obvious character of adapting to the changing circumstances, and some princes are also good at making opportunistic moves.
It can be said that the Riverlands is obviously a merchant's land.
After the ancestors came to the Riverlands of Westeros, after hundreds of thousands of battles, they signed an oath of peace with the Children of the Forest at the Lake of God's Eye. The Children of the Forest withdrew from the plains and returned to the forest.
The ancestors established large and small kingdoms in this fertile land, including the Bracken and Blackwood families who claimed to rule this area.
During the reign of Christian IV of House Mulder, the Andals came across the sea.
Ironically, on the day that the castle was built, Robert of Dragonstone landed in Westeros.
Di Bin said with a warm face.
It must be regarded as the army of other feudal lords of Yan Jun. The total strength can reach 160,000-170,000.
"Man, is he really leaving?"
Stars shone brightly at the grand Stark tournament.
However, before James had time to feel depressed, he was assigned a task by the king and returned to King's Landing to protect the king, and was directly disqualified from the competition.
"What?"
During Yan Junbo's martial arts competition, the onlookers applauded and cheered for the Knight of the Laughing Tree because, in our opinion, that knight was the most friendly to the people.
"How could he know? Would Ned rather tell him than tell you?"
The Knight of the Smiling Tree almost became the only attraction in that game, but the identity of that knight became an unsolved mystery in the history of a country.
The Andals established several kingdoms of their own and fought continuously until the invaders from the Stormlands destroyed them one by one and established their own kingdom.
Neither the beauty of sinking fish or falling geese, nor the martial arts skills, Lerob Brandon has all the advantages of Bashi and Qiya.
Stark has a longer history than the Red Keep in King's Landing. Although it is not as famous as the Red Keep, it was once known as the strongest fortress in the country. Its builder, Bai Xinyanjun, has always been proud of it.

"Did you escape, man! Did you!" Aegon suddenly said excitedly.
Although Xue Nuo also made a lot of money in those two years thanks to Low Bin's operation, who thinks the money is too little!
The results are obvious. Both Arthur Dayne and BA Waistan performed mediocrely, and Heron became the champion of Yan Junbo's competition.
Snow's Brandon family was angry: He was a married woman, how could he desecrate the little princess of the Brandon family like this?
"Bad, how do you swear?" Caitlin finally resisted her curiosity, after all, that question has troubled you for too long.
That uprising ended the Targaryen dynasty's rule of more than 800 years, and the wind started at the end of Qingping, not because Yan Jun sent this laurel crown at the right time..."
Long before the duel, there was a strange news that Prince Yan Jun abducted Lerob Brandon and disappeared.
"War?" Aegon frowned~
You can't get a clue of the horror of that castle from the names of the buildings inside Stark: Tower of Terror, Widow's Tower, Wailing Tower, Ghost Tower, King Burning Tower...
"You know!"
When Lerob Brandon appeared at the Stark joust, the eyes of the women participating in the joust were all moved, usually your fiancé Anna, who screamed with excitement.
Coupled with the infrequent wars, people can stay rich for a long time and develop aristocratic character, which ultimately gives people the impression of being inconsistent.
"Obvious thing, right~"
However, contrary to the wishes of the Lord, the Frey family arrived late at the Battle of Ruby Banks, which decided the outcome of the war, and was called the "late" Frey.
It turns out that the mad king who suffered from paranoia even suspected his own son. I listened to Vaihi's report and thought that Prince Heron wanted to use the Stark tournament to connect with the heroes of heaven and plot to change the dynasty, so the king sat in King's Landing.
It’s time to live.
"Yes, everything is your guess. Do you have any evidence? He will definitely become suspicious before hearing your guess."
The intersection of seven directions in the Hejian Land is one of the most commercially developed areas. Coupled with the fertile land and short harvests, the people in this area accumulate wealth very quickly, and there are only a few nouveau riche.
As if overnight, the once talented Prince Heron changed into a shameless gangster.
In fact, that was not the first time that Di Bin persuaded me.
"Bad~" Yan Jun left his position willingly and came to the middle of the team to do physical training with the soldiers.
In addition to the princes who took refuge, Robert chose the Tully family as his spokesperson and ruler in the Riverlands.
Similarly, the Tyrell family in the Reach was later the Steward of the Lowgarden. The Gardener family was destroyed when they fought against Robert, and the Steward was promoted to Duke before becoming loyal to Yan Jun. This also shows that Yan Jun has some kind of affection for the Tully family.
It’s total trust!
I rode a tall horse and wore a smiling tree mask. I won eight games in a row in the competition arena and won applause from the people present.
Next, the competition continued to progress. Dawn Sword, BA Listan and others tried their best and eliminated all challengers.
Aegon opened his mouth, but he still didn't say anything in agreement.
In the many previous royal disputes, the Riverlands were almost always the main battlefield.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
The Governor of the Riverlands is because the Tully family is the king in the future!
"Mother, has he always wanted to know who Aegon's mother is?"
Let Harrenborg grab the sword to save his father. In order to save his father, the upright Harrenborg strangled himself alive.
At the martial arts arena, Di Bin saw Gao Bin sitting on the low platform and was very angry.
Anna, Ned, James, Red Viper, etc., all the heavyweights were present, but no one was watching those people. The audience's eyes were on the heroes of the older generation:
p>
Robert used dragon flames and scheming to make the princes of the entire Riverlands surrender, and burned the Starks and the "White Heart" Northern Family who tried to use it to resist the Yan army. The extremely weak Northern Kingdom was instantly destroyed.<
/p>
That oath was heavy enough, even though he was implicated in it. Di Bin touched his nose and said quietly:
Of course, you still agree with everything Di Bin said. There is no money in the Reach, and the level of poverty is second to that of the West.
What Di Bin said was so sincere that Aegon was inevitably moved.
The furious father met the mad king and was immediately caught and thrown into a cage by the mad king.
"To others, he wants to be kicked up from that position by you, so go up and join the soldiers!"
But in the Battle of the Conquerors 300 years later, Stark suffered the same fate as the Red Keep 300 years ago. It was struck by the dragon's flames hovering in the sky and burned nervously. The Northern family and Stark perished together.
Caitlin looked at the person and gritted her teeth and said:
Just like that, Prince Heron offended eight small families in the country with one move, so that the fearful Sir BA Waistan beat his chest in regret: If I had known, I would have won!
Therefore, when the martial arts masters and dignitaries of a country heard that Heron was going to participate in the martial arts competition, they packed their bags and gathered with Stark.
Every night when night comes, all kinds of strange sounds and shadows will appear.
As a result, the birthday party became a minor event in the country's political life. As for the name of the birthday girl, people have forgotten it.
If the Stark before its reconstruction was cursed, the princes who occupied it would not be able to escape their misfortune.
In that world, oaths were still very ineffective, and no one would underestimate the deterrent power of oaths.
The Earl of Stark at that time was named Walter Heian. The earl doted on his son, and in order to celebrate his birthday, he decided to hold a ten-day martial arts competition.
"What is he going to do?" Caitlin was writing a letter outside the house, thinking about how to persuade the Tyrell family to refuse to marry her family.
Although the king was good at fighting and won ninety-nine battles, he was defeated and died in the last battle. His son, Stephen VII, was a Liu Adou and was unable to save the defeat. In the end, the ancestors' Kingdom of the Riverlands
Destroyed by the Andals.
After walking away gracefully in the competition, the Knight of the Smiling Tree disappeared on the seventh day, leaving only his armor and mask hanging under the tree.
Heron was so angry that he said he was talking.
"That story ends with Stark...
Di Bin watched for a while, then quietly disappeared into the martial arts arena, and returned to the outside of the castle, where Aegon was packing his luggage.
It is said that the evil spirits of the Northland family have been haunting every corner of the castle since then.
Then, those martial arts masters competed with Prince Heron again.
Arthur Dayne, Sword of the Dawn, Alistan the Fearless, and Gerold Hightower, Captain of the Iron Guard.
Other regions tend to be isolated and unable to achieve long-term development, and the ruling families often change over hundreds of thousands of years.
To be continued...
