Chapter 264: Storm Crisis
Yangjian City is not small, but there are too many stone men, and the green blood river flowing into the city is very deep, so it will take some time to drain.
In order to prevent healthy warriors from being infected by greyscale, Drogo arranged for Dofas, the former Volantis Archon who had won the hearts of the Stonemen, to stay and guard Yangjian City, while he led the army to a sea with the Stormlands.
The separate city of Divine Grace.
The Arion family is a prominent noble family in Dorne. Their home city is the City of Divine Grace located at the confluence of the River Foul and the Vance River. Their emblem is a red, black and low gold hand.
Currently, the City of Divine Grace is ruled by Countess Delron Allion, and her son Roger Allion is the heir to the family.
Daemon Sand, the illegitimate son of Ser Roger and the sibling of Princess Arianne Martell, was killed in this battle.
Therefore, the lords of Divine Grace City hated Drogo very much. Facing the Dragon King's army, they showed an astonishing combat power of two thousand men with an army of less than one thousand men.
But facing the mighty Unsullied who were good at attacking cities and plundering territory, as well as the braided warriors, they only persisted for less than a day before the City of Divine Grace was breached.
With the road ahead cut off, Countess Delron Elion could only take her family members and flee to the Sea of Dorne in embarrassment, preparing to take a boat to the Free Trade City of Braavos for refuge.
However, the huge fleet in Liberty Bay had already blocked the strait, and they could only hold back their hatred and be annihilated.
After occupying the City of Divine Grace, Drogo was in no hurry to leave.
Having just experienced a tragic battle, his army needed to rest and recuperate in order to face the consequences of losing the power of the dragon with good mental momentum.
What happened to the Silver Queen left the entire army in a state of mourning. Without Kaa's permission, no one dared to gather together to celebrate winning this battle that would go down in history.
Drogo told them to just take a good rest during their break.
The warriors had a few days of leisure, but Kaa's fate was not so good.
Before dawn, messenger crows from various spies came one after another. One crow brought worse news than another!
Drogo read the letter all day long, and his brows never relaxed for a minute.
In the Reach, the Ironborn seemed not to be satisfied with the newly conquered land. They gathered their troops and went straight up the Mander River. Joining hands with Lord Redwyne of the Arbor, they led two huge fleets along the coast of Dorne.
The summer sea on the border moves towards the Stone Step Islands.
The Stepstone Islands are only separated from the Greenstone Castle in the Stormlands by a bay. It is obvious that they want to attack the Stormlands.
Ser Paxter Redwyne is the Earl of the Arbor and Lord of House Redwyne.
He married Mina Tyrell, the sister of Lord Mace Tyrell, Duke of Highgarden, and she was the same as King's Landing.
Therefore, Drogo was not surprised at all.
The new king of the Iron Islands, Euron Greyjoy, has always been in love with Cersei Lannister in the game of Ice and Fire, so Drogo believes that in reality, the pirate king should have signed some kind of treaty with Tywin Lannister.
.
Maybe it's an engagement with the Duke of Casterly Rock's daughter.
From this, it makes sense that the Iron Islands would help King's Landing.
Drogo also believes that they are following the trend and believe that joining the Lannister family is the general trend.
After all, only the richest people in the Western Region are qualified to arm-wrestle with him.
Not to mention other wealth and military strength, just saying that King's Landing has a lot of wildfire can challenge him.
For example, there are rumors that the Yronwood family army that fled Yangjian City is preparing to join the Lannister family.
Drogo had already expected that after losing the intimidation of the dragon, the major forces in Westeros, which had always regarded him as a foreign barbarian, were no longer as afraid of him as before.
So they gathered together and destroyed his army first to remove the biggest threat.
Apart from these two major forces, there is also the Duke of Highgarden who is married to the Iron Throne. He has sent Lord Randyll Tarly of the Hornhill Tarly family to lead an army on the journey with the Valyrian steel sword "Heartbreak".
Take the Rose Road to the Stormlands.
In the north, after King of the North Robb Stark was murdered at the Red Wedding, Tywin Lannister made Roose Bolton, Earl of the Dreadfort, the Duke of the North and ordered him to lead his army along the King's
The Great Road rushes to the aid of King's Landing and cooperates with the Iron Throne at any time to attack Dragonstone.
To show his loyalty to the Iron Throne, Roose Bolton readily agreed. He had already sent his illegitimate son, Ramsay Bolton, known as "Little Skin", as the vanguard, leading two thousand elites to march towards the Iron Throne.
King's Landing.
The integration of the Free Bay army has greatly improved Drogo's military appearance. He is not afraid of these chickens and dogs. The only thing he fears is the wildfire of King's Landing.
Therefore, after reading the letter, he immediately released the messenger crow, asking the five thousand Unsullied stationed on Dragonstone to abandon the city and return to the Stormlands immediately.
Dragonstone is just a deserted land, and the dragon crystal veins have been dug out. Drogo has nothing to miss about the stone forest.
Of course, he is not a person who likes to make concessions. As soon as the threat of wildfire is resolved, he will send his army to take back Dragonstone.
When the time comes, we will take over King's Landing, the center of Westeros rule across the river from Dragonstone!
Now that the Lannister family has gathered all its troops and allies to surround the Stormlands, war will come soon.
Imminent threats must be resolved before war breaks out, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.
But what makes Drogo irritated is that King's Landing is heavily defended. It's too difficult to send people to sneak in and destroy the trump card that they are focused on defending.
"What should I do? Tywin Lannister's lackeys are only on the surface, and there are still many forces waiting and watching. As long as we show a little weakness, they will also send troops to get a share of the pie, especially Stan.
That false king of Nice!”
Drogo was pacing back and forth in the count's tower. Suddenly he felt a little stuffy, so he asked the guard to open the window, ready to take a few breaths of fresh air and clear his mind.
As a result, he heard waves of vague cries mixed with the sound of rain.
It's a child's voice.
He followed the sound and walked over, looking down. In a mud alley not far away, there were many refugees with no clothes or covering their bodies.
The cry came from a woman's arms.
Seeing that scene, he suddenly had an idea.
He ordered the guards: "Go and fetch Tyrion Lannister."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The guard left after receiving the order, and soon he brought the drunken little devil over.
As soon as Tyrion saw Drogo, his mind became clearer. He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, are you looking for me?"
Drogo waved his hand and signaled the guards to leave.
After the guards went out and closed the door, Kaa gently guided: "Sit down and talk slowly."
He admired the little devil's courage and ability to lead the army in the battle of Yangjian City, so he changed his mind a lot.
Tyrion followed his gaze and sat on an oak chair.
Drogo walked to the wine cabinet, lifted the wine jug, adjusted the goblet, and poured two glasses of Dornish wine.
Then he walked over and handed the cup to the little devil.
Tyrion was flattered and caught it. His eyes, one black and one green, stared at Drogo's back and moved around, waiting for His Majesty to speak.
"Tsk, tsk."
Drogo took a sip of the sweet red wine, then moved a chair and sat opposite the little devil.
Chapter completed!
