The screams and shouts of death outside the house made Black Wald, who was doing fitness exercises on the bed with his cousin "Beauty Watta", stop his waist movements.
"Oops, something happened in Twin River City, you hide in your room!"
Black Walder's short, fat and stocky body quickly jumped under the bed, put on his clothes haphazardly, and at the same time gave instructions to his cousin on the bed, then quickly grabbed the long sword and ran out.
As the garrison officer of the South Fort of Twin River City, Black Walder usually sticks to the South Fort, which is very boring.
Today, because of the hidden ruby, all kinds of desires arose in his heart. He originally thought that most of the family members were in the banquet hall, so he took this opportunity to sneak out with his cousin and prepare to discuss life.
But during this time period, Twin River City, which had been at peace for hundreds of years, was actually attacked.
Black Wald hurried to the third-floor terrace where he could see the situation in the South Fort, and observed the situation at the moment through the braziers at intervals on the bridge.
A group of soldiers wearing Seaside City armor, followed by a giant white wolf that looked like a monster, had already attacked the middle of the bridge and below the North Fort. Two to three hundred Frey family soldiers were trying their best to stop their advance.
Giant wolf?
Seaside City has already surrendered to the Stark family! It is not surrender to our Twin River City at all!
But why is it white? Didn’t the rumors say it was blood red or gray?
When Black Walder saw the giant white wolf, his first reaction was that Haijiang City had already surrendered to the enemy, and this time he was pretending to surrender as a gift.
Rumble!
Just when he was judging whether he should join the battle, a thunderous sound of horse hooves reached his ears from the direction of Nanbao.
Although Black Walder could not see clearly due to the darkness of night, the long dragon-like torch was rapidly approaching the Twins City.
The Twins are finished!
Black Walder knew that in order to side with the Lannister family, his family had devoted all its strength to join the army of the West with 5,000 troops. Currently, the entire Twins City was guarded by only about 500 people.
If we rely on the strong defense of the north and south forts, these manpower will be no problem. But now the enemy has entered the Twin River City. With the current strength of the Frey family, it is impossible to repel the enemy.
With a thought in his mind, Black Walder decisively headed downstairs towards Marquis Walder's city lord's room.
The entire Twins City knew that Marquis Walder did not trust any of his children, and all the valuable wealth was hidden in his room.
Because Marquis Walder was too old and had been troubled by gout for a long time, which made him unable to move, he moved the city lord's room that was supposed to be on the top floor of the North Castle to the second floor.
call!
Black Wald walked down the stairs quickly and was about to run towards the city lord's room on the left side of the stairs when he heard the sound of heavy objects breaking through the air in his left ear. He subconsciously lowered his head and rolled to the ground on the right.
clang!
Thanks to his short and fat figure, and because the opponent's attack position was slightly higher, a single-edged sharp ax struck hard on the stone wall of the stairs, making a crisp sound.
Black Wald rolled twice, then immediately stabilized his body and stood up, looking directly in front of him.
I saw Count Jason, who was tall and wearing armor, slowly retracting the sharp ax that had been chopped on the stone wall. At this moment, his face no longer had the friendly smile during the day, and the cold chill on his face was reflected in the light of the corridor wall lamp.
It's very scary under the light.
"Earl Jason, shouldn't you be in the banquet hall? Hey, you also want that old man's wealth?
I definitely can’t take it all by myself, so why not let me go in and choose first, and the rest that can’t be taken away belongs to you!”
Without his usual identity suppression, Black Walder had no respect for Marquis Walder and opened his mouth to make suggestions to Earl Jason.
Black Walder was a romantic by nature, and there were always messages in Twins City saying that he had close relationships with many women in his family, including his cousins, aunts, and the wives of people close to him.
It was even revealed that Marquis Walder's seventh wife, Anna Anna Falling, also had an unusual relationship with him.
"Oh, how can I let you in? This is all the wealth belonging to the King of the North!
You have only two choices now, continue to fight me, or escape from the Twins on horseback while there is still time."
Earl Jason sneered and rejected his suggestion without hesitation. At the same time, he waved twice the sharp ax he had brought to the city temporarily to disarm.
Logically speaking, Count Jason should have been eating and drinking in the banquet hall. But he had been calculating the approximate time in his mind, and after using the excuse of peeing to escape, he quietly went to the second floor terrace to observe the situation.
At this moment, the bloody wind burst out of the statue, causing chaos among the Frey family soldiers in the North Castle.
When they learned that someone was attacking the city, important members of the Frey family, including Marquis Frey, were in the banquet hall.
Therefore, the remaining hundreds of soldiers from the Frey family surrounded the banquet hall to protect them, and they had no time to look for Count Jason.
The gold and gems on the twin tower sculptures that he contributed were all taken out by the King of the North. He watched Lord Walder direct his servants to put them into his room.
Since the smart Earl Jason has chosen to be loyal to the Tully family and the Stark family, he must strive for greater interests for his family.
Therefore, he was worried that during the chaos of the siege, someone would take the opportunity to plunder the wealth that already belonged to the King of the North, so he guarded the corridor on the second floor alone with his axe.
When Black Walder saw that Count Jason was unable to make any progress, his originally smiling eyes changed. He held the sword tightly in his hand and rushed towards Count Jason.
Clang, Clang, Clang!
The two of them fought directly in the dim corridor on the second floor. The burly Earl Jason swung the ax in his hand vigorously, and kept exchanging blows with the equally strong Black Walder's long sword.
In the dim corridor on the second floor, there was a continuous sound of violent collision of steel, accompanied by fleeting sparks, beautiful and deadly.
Earl Jason, who has been fighting the Ironborn for many years, has very rich combat experience.
From the very beginning of the battle, his ax attack was continuous, relying entirely on his height, the ax kept slamming from top to bottom, making it gradually difficult for Black Walder to parry.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Black Walder suddenly surged with all his strength, raised his long sword and swung the sharp ax away, turned around and ran towards the stairs.
But it would not be a wise thing for him to directly reveal his back to Count Jason.
Tear!
Count Jason suddenly swung his right hand down, and struck the fleeing Black Walder with his sharp ax. Black Wald's right shoulder, which had not yet left the attack range, was cut with a deep bloody mark by the front end of the sharp axe.
ah!
Black Wald, who was injured on his right shoulder, let out a short and rapid scream, but he didn't care about his injury at all and ran towards the bottom of the stairs without looking back.
Rumble!
Black Walder clutched his bleeding right shoulder and ran to the gate of the North Castle. He was looking for a few Frey family soldiers to go up and chop that damn Earl Jason into pieces first.
He then saw a column of eight enemy cavalry advancing side by side in the direction of the South Fort of Twin River City. They were... heavy cavalry wearing armor along with their horses.
Ding, ding, ding!
The Frey family soldiers' crossbow arrows shot at them, and most of them were bounced away directly. A few crossbow arrows penetrated into the plate armor like an iron can, and then their kinetic energy was greatly reduced, and they were blocked by the inner armor.
Puff, pff, pff!
This group of heavy cavalry, holding a torch in one hand and holding a spear tightly in the other, rushed into the formation of Frey family soldiers, constantly knocking away any Frey family soldiers who dared to stand in front of their horses.
Broken bones.
Bah!
Under the impact of the heavy cavalry, the nearly 300 Frey family soldiers collapsed directly, and some people were killed by the cavalry with single-handed guns. Blood spattered in the dark night, and corpses continued to be added to the ground.
Pass, pass, pass!
Some Frey family soldiers who were forced to have no way out jumped directly from the bridge of the Twins into the dark and fast-flowing Green Fork River.
Of course, compared to standing there waiting to die, if they have good water skills and are lucky enough, they can still survive.
For hundreds of years, the Frey family has been one of the richest and most powerful families in the Trident River Basin.
After losing the strong castle they were proud of, they vividly explained what it means to "give me one hand, and I can't defeat it".
"If you don't want to die, come with me!"
Seeing the current situation, Black Walder could not care less about coveting the wealth of Marquis Walder. He shouted at the Frey family soldiers who fled to him, and immediately ran towards the North Castle stables, holding his right shoulder.
Twenty or thirty defeated troops of the Frey family had no choice at this moment. They followed Black Walder towards the stables.
Taking advantage of the massacre of heavy cavalry in front of the North Fort, Black Walder and others opened the gate of the North Fort on the other side and rode towards the King's Road.
Black Wald, who had escaped from the Twins, had his right shoulder tied with a strip of cloth to stop the bleeding.
He looked back at the long line of torches on the bridge of the Twins, and without any hesitation, he led the remnants of the Frey family towards Riverrun.
Going to Riverrun is Black Walder's only choice, because his father, Lyman Frey, and grandfather, Steveron Frey, have joined the Western Army with 2,500 Frey family soldiers and are besieging Riverrun.
…
"ah!
!”
As the screams outside the North Castle Banquet Hall subsided, Marquis Walder, who was sitting at the high table in the hall, understood in his heart that his family had completely lost.
Squeak!
Check, check, check!
The thick oak door was opened from the outside, and rows of heavily armored warriors wearing full-body plate armor and holding kite shields quickly occupied the entrance to the banquet hall.
In the banquet hall, many girls of the Frey family hugged each other tightly, trembling. They did not have the courage to seek death, so they only hoped to survive the next ravages.
"Hey, you idiots, put down the crossbows in your hands. Do you still need to use them now? They will only make your death worse."
Marquis Walder, who had lived for more than ninety years, still saw the situation clearly. Looking at his son and grandchildren holding crossbows, looking like they wanted to attack, he tilted his head and shouted angrily.
"Ah! Monster!"
"what is that?"
While he was scolding his children and grandchildren, all the women in the banquet hall exclaimed. When Marquis Walder heard the sound, he immediately turned his head and looked towards the front.
I saw a terrifying giant wolf that was much taller than the tallest war horse, covered in soft gray fur, with lively and cold eyes, entering the banquet hall.
call!
It continuously exhaled bursts of white mist from its mouth, walked slowly between the heavily armored soldiers standing on both sides of the door, and entered the hall.
Shuo Shuo Shuo!
As it moved forward into the hall, all the Frey family women in the hall quickly moved and squeezed to the back of the hall, under the seat of Marquis Walder on the high platform.
Gulu!
The male member of the Frey family standing on the second floor of the hall holding a crossbow now had no idea whether he should put down his crossbow and surrender, or show his heroic side in front of Lord Walder.
Whoosh!
On the left side of the second floor of the banquet hall, a tall, bald man in his fifties, with a hunchback, pulled the trigger of the crossbow while his fingers were trembling due to excessive nervousness.
Bang!
Woo!~~
The crossbow arrow was nailed in front of Xue Feng's left paw, and the tail of the arrow was still trembling. Feeling that he was being attacked, Xue Feng let out a low roar from his wolf mouth and stared at the bald man on the second floor. Its huge body slowly closed and lowered its head.
volt.
Xue Feng's thick limbs full of muscles suddenly exerted force, and its huge gathered body was ejected directly like a slingshot.
Although Bloodwind cannot jump too high due to its own weight, compared to its huge size, it can reach the second floor of the banquet hall with just one jump.
Katcha!
Xue Feng's strong body directly smashed into the wooden guardrail on the second floor of the banquet hall, and the wolf's mouth accurately bit the bald human who attacked it.
Then, the huge body turned around with completely unequal sensitivity, stepped on the left wall of the banquet hall, and jumped back to its previous position.
"Ah! Help, father, help me!"
What was in Xue Feng's mouth was Jerry Frey, the fourth son of Marquis Walder. At this moment, he was held in Xue Feng's mouth by his waist, and those extremely sharp teeth bit into his body, making him continue to
Screaming for help.
Marquis Walder looked at the terrifying giant wolf holding his son in its mouth. His mouth opened, but he didn't know what to say. He couldn't possibly speak to the wolf, let him let him go!
Ta, ta, ta!
Check!
There was a sound of footsteps at the door of the banquet hall, and a young man with auburn hair wearing Haijiang City armor walked in first with a smile on his face.
When the group of heavily armored warriors saw his arrival, they immediately put their feet together, stood upright, and saluted him neatly.
The young man at the front just walked to stand next to the terrifying giant wolf. A handsome young man accompanying him opened his mouth and said loudly: "This is the King of the North, the Blood Wolf Lord, the legislator, Stark."
Robb Stark of the House!
The Frey family of the Twins who betrayed their oath of allegiance, kneel down quickly and wait for his judgment!"
The title of Lawgiver was given to him by twenty to thirty thousand northern soldiers because Robb personally killed hundreds of people who violated military law and discipline in Lannisport.
Although most of the people killed at that time were ironborn, all the soldiers in the north felt Robb's strict requirements for military law and discipline.
After all, even his father Ed couldn't stop his own soldiers from acting recklessly after victory.
When Robb knew that he had an extra title for no reason, he just smiled. However, this title was just right. Robb was planning to promulgate many new laws to strengthen himself in order to enhance the overall strength of the entire Northern Territory.
.
Back to business.
As soon as Clay finished speaking, the girls of the Frey family, who had been frightened, immediately knelt on their knees and worshiped Robb.
On the second floor of the banquet hall, many of the children and grandchildren of Marquis Walder looked at each other, quickly put down the crossbows in their hands, and also knelt down on the ground on the second floor.
"Marquis Walder, you..."
"ah!"
Robb looked at the banquet hall where the 'Red Wedding' had taken place in his previous life, then turned to speak to the only sitting man, Lord Walder.
Jerry, who was bitten in Bloodwind's mouth, couldn't help but let out a scream due to the sudden pain, interrupting Robb's topic.
The corner of Robb's mouth twitched slightly, he collected his emotions, smiled and spoke again: "Wade..."
"ah!"
I don't know if it was Xue Feng's bad taste, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Jerry let out another scream.
"Xue Feng, it's too noisy!"
Being interrupted twice, Robb frowned and complained to Bloodwind.
Poof!
Xue Feng may have been waiting for these words. The wolf's mouth suddenly closed. Under the powerful bite force, Jerry was bitten into two pieces as if he had been cut in half by a guillotine. Blood splashed all over the floor.
.
"ah!
!”
A Frey family woman who was kneeling on the ground screamed in surprise after seeing such a tragic and bloody scene, but she suddenly remembered that Jerry died because of being too noisy.
The woman immediately bit her lips tightly, held her breath, and did not dare to make a sound. Bright red blood slowly flowed from the corners of her lips.
"Marquis Walder, aren't you going to surrender to me?"
No one dared to interrupt again this time, and Robb asked Marquis Walder, who had a terrifyingly gloomy expression on the high platform.
"Hey, whether I surrender or not, you won't spare my life. What's the difference?"
At this age, Marquis Walder, who has married eight wives, has more than thirty legitimate children, and countless illegitimate children, looked directly at Robb without fear.
"Ha, you're so smart. You're right! You will definitely die here today. It should be very dramatic."
When Robb heard his words, he chuckled, looked around the entire banquet hall, and directly announced the result of Lord Walder's trial.
Although he guessed that he would die, hearing Robb say it so directly, the little luck that Marquis Walder had in his heart was destroyed by him.
He angrily yelled at Robb: "What nonsense are you talking about? Let's do it! Little wolf, Tywin Lannister will avenge me. Even you want to fight him!"
I curse you. Before long, you will die in King's Landing like your father!"
Snap, snap, snap!
Listening to Lord Walder's vicious words, Robb laughed instead of being angry, and clapped his hands to applaud him and said: "Very good, now I know that the Frey family also has a lot of backbone!"
Robb paused for a moment, then looked up at the children and grandchildren of Lord Walder who were kneeling on the ground on the second floor, with only their heads exposed. He said in a cold tone: "In this case, all Frey family males who are taller than their knees will be beheaded."
!”
Wow!
As soon as Robb finished speaking, the male members of the Frey family in the banquet hall suddenly burst into uproar.
Some people knew they were going to die, and their faces were ashen, while others reached for their discarded crossbows, preparing to fight to the death.
"Apart from……"
In the banquet hall, Robb's voice sounded again, which seemed to give many men in the Frey family a glimmer of hope.
Robb, who had been watching their facial expressions, sneered disdainfully, and then continued: "Except for the person who killed Lord Walder with his own hands. He will become the new Lord of the Twins City!"
"Hahaha, little wolf cub, you want them to kill their relatives? Who do you think our Frey family is?"
We may not be good at fighting, but there is absolutely no doubt about our loyalty to the family."
After Lord Walder saw that Robb had finished speaking, the banquet hall suddenly fell into dead silence. He laughed loudly and praised the cohesion of his family to Robb.
stop!
A crossbow arrow was shot from the second floor of the banquet hall, hitting the laughing left side of Marquis Walder's face, causing his smile to freeze on his face.
Marquis Walder, who had not felt any pain for a while, looked towards the source of the crossbow arrow. It was his twelfth son, Lotso Frey.
Rosseau was born with a disabled leg and was known as "Cripple Rosseau". Marquis Walder made him serve as the family manager for twelve years against all objections, and he was recognized by the members of the Frey family.
But he didn't expect that he would betray himself and kill his father!
stop!
Perhaps because he was worried that the arrow would not be fatal, Rosso cocked the arrow again. After taking careful aim this time, he shot an arrow into the middle of Marquis Walder's eyebrows and personally brought him to his end.
Looking at Lord Walder who was killed by his own son, Robb whispered to himself: "In my previous life, I died of betrayal here. In this life, you died of betrayal here. Isn't it very dramatic?"
