Chapter 82: Evacuation

"Wildfire? Lord Robb, what are you talking about?"

When Torrhen heard Robb's words, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly, a puzzled expression appeared on his face, and he asked.

"He probably didn't come here empty-handed just now, right?"

Robb did not pay any attention to Torrhen, but turned his head and asked the two family guards.

"Yes, he was holding a wooden box and said it belonged to you, so we didn't dare to ask any more questions."

"You two idiots, why didn't you say anything just now?"

Hearing the answers from the two family guards, Clay couldn't help but frown and scolded.

"Lord Clay, Lord Robb didn't ask us just now!"

Robb shook his head. The idea conveyed to him by Bloodwind had been confirmed. Coupled with some previous judgments, he said to Torrhen: "Torrhen, you must be the Lannister spy!"

"Spy? How is that possible? I can't understand you more and more! Lord Robb!"

When Torun heard this, the pupils in his eyes suddenly dilated. As he answered loudly, he reached out with his right hand towards his lower back.

Click!

When Torun took out something from his waist and was about to throw it out with all his strength, Xue Feng, who was already alert, rushed to his side when he made a move and bit off his right hand completely.

Snap!

"ah!"

As Torun screamed, a piece of flint fell to the ground on the bloody right hand that Xue Feng bit into his mouth.

"Torun, why? Why did you betray us?"

Ed, who had been silent until now, looked at his younger brother, thinking of the brothers who died in King's Landing, and asked loudly.

"Hahahaha, why?"

Torun, who was holding his broken arm and his face was twisted and hideous in pain, heard his brother's question, laughed wildly and replied loudly,

"Because it's unfair!

Hallion was born earlier than us, and the inheritance of Kahor City was born to him.

I won’t say anything, there’s nothing I can do to change it!

But why did we get the same training and join Robb Stark's wolf pack when we arrived at Winterfell?

Why is it that if you are more trusted by him than me, he will treat you better?

When he talks to me, he is polite to me, but to you, Little Jon and the others, he is as casual as a friend.

Is this kind of differential treatment fair?

From beginning to end, you have never accepted me!

Sure enough, subsequent facts proved this to be the case. You are all commanders of elite troops, and I am the only one in charge of the logistics troops.

How much reward do you get for defeating the Dreadfort, and how much reward do I get for working hard to transport infantry and clean the battlefield?"

At this moment, all the people on the south city floor were complaining loudly from Torun, telling them about their unfair treatment.

After he took a long breath, he continued: "At that time, I even experienced these unfair treatments repeatedly when I was sleeping and having nightmares. Haha, that dream was so clear and real.

Brother, at that time I couldn't eat well or sleep well. Did any of you care about me?

You only know how to look at the sleeping Robb Stark, but I am your brother!

Fortunately, there is Lord Jaime. During the time he was in Winterfell, he always taught me swordsmanship and often invited me to the tavern to drink and play with women.

When I made the decision to do things for Lord James, that was the last nightmare I had.

A strange crow taught me how to take revenge on you!

Maybe, that is the resentment in my heart, transformed into an illusion!"

"Any last words? Toren!"

Robb secretly paid attention to what Torrhen said to him, but this was not the time to think about it in detail. He slightly raised the ice in his hand and spoke.

"Lord Robb, may I come?"

After hearing his brother's accusation, Eddard, who looked sad, looked at Robb and said in a pleading tone.

Robb nodded to him, then turned to give instructions to the people behind him: "You go first, Clay, you lead the way, follow the evacuation route."

"As you command, Lord Robb!"

Clay agreed and led Sansa and his party forward along the city wall.

"Torun, it's not that we didn't accept you! It's that you never integrated into us!

Do you know? Lord Robb originally wanted you and Little Jon to command the cavalry troops together, while I would manage the logistics troops.

It was only after I privately asked Lord Robb for a transfer that he placed you in the logistics unit.

Why did I do this? Because the casualty rate of the logistics troops is far lower than that of the cavalry troops charging forward!

Therefore, these should not be the reasons for your betrayal. I'm sorry, it was my brother who made the mistake!

Don’t worry, my brother will ask Lord Robb to go back and tell father that you died in battle!”

Ed looked at his brother with a sad face and spoke in a gentle tone.

After saying that, he stepped forward with his sword in hand, gave his brother a final hug, and at the same time pierced Torun's heart with the sword in his hand.

After listening to his brother's words, Torun stood there stupidly without any resistance.

Having been stabbed in the heart, he fell limply on his brother's shoulder. With blood pouring from his mouth, he whispered a few words to Ed.

Robb had kept his sights on the King's Landing team until Varys told him that only Eddard survived in the breakout team.

This made him feel that this spy who had always been hiding was suddenly too obvious, and almost all conditions pointed directly at Ed.

But Ed is really a spy, and he can attack him long before the breakout.

Therefore, Robb assumed that everyone in King's Landing was not a spy, so who else knew the address of their store in Shoemaker's Square.

At that time, he recalled that on the afternoon of arriving in King's Landing, Ed had gone out of the city to contact Torrhen and others.

Woo!

While Robb was thinking, Bloodwind followed the idea conveyed by him and took the box of wildfire hidden by Torun in his mouth. When he opened the box, it was all filled with wildfire in glass bottles.

Seeing James and others who had already stopped and not moved forward, he gave up the plan of using them, let Xue Feng hold the wildfire box in his mouth, and took Ed towards the evacuation point.

Seeing that the wildfire did not explode on the wall of the south city tower, James knew that Toron's plan had failed.

When they were at Shoemaker's Square, Torrhen took advantage of his companions' lack of attention to deal with the two Winterfell cavalry, and then he and James rode after Bloodwind holding a wooden box, and proactively made a plan to ambush them with wildfire.

James, who had experienced the fighting power of the Blood Wind, did not think that they could keep Robb here. Therefore, he continued to approach the South Tower without the golden robe, making a useless sacrifice.

The route Robb and others took to evacuate was the same route Sansa took to escape Winterfell in the original play.

This is the route that Clay led his people to find out after more than a month of exploration based on the general information provided by Robb.

After descending the southern city wall, Robb and Eddard had to take a detour because Bloodwind was too big to walk through the alleys.

When they arrived at this small branch of the Blackwater River, Sansa and others were already sitting in three rowing boats.

Use the tools prepared by Clay in advance to knock off the rivets on the Blood Wind Wolf Armor, so that the bloodstained and scratched first-generation wolf armor will be scrapped directly.

After everything was ready, Robb and others all boarded the boat and rowed towards the winch tower in Blackwater Bay.

Xue Feng, who was hanging the wildfire box, jumped into the river and swam comfortably in the water. Although most of the blood was on the wolf armor, there was still a lot of blood stuck to its hair, which was just in time to clean.

Several rowing boats arrived at the winch tower on the Blackwater River, and Gendry was waiting for Robb with a hammer in hand.

After he got on the ship, Beric proposed to separate from Robb and others here.

Robb nodded his blessing and said nothing more. After all, he was the Earl of Blackport City and it was impossible to follow him back to Winterfell.

The Capstan Tower on the Blackwater is where, in the original play, during the Battle of the Blackwater, Bronn fired an arrow, ignited a wildfire, and blew up Stannis' fleet.

At this moment, a beautiful three-masted ship was waiting for them quietly.



James brought several golden robes to the first floor of the dungeon. He saw a mess in the cell. The imprisoned criminals immediately destroyed the cells where they were held after being released.

Walking down the second floor, it's a bit better here. After all, it's a place where noble prisoners are held, and they still have a basic sense of dignity.

On the third floor, James smelled a strong smell of blood in the corridor. He didn't take a closer look, but quickly walked to the cell where Ed was held.

Seeing that the cell door was wide open, James shook his head and was about to walk back when the sound of moving chains sounded in the cell.

He entered the cell with a surprised expression, and saw an expressionless Ed adjusting his sitting posture in the corner of the cell.

"Lord Ed, your son didn't come to save you?"

"coming."

"Why don't you run away with him?"

"Haha, how can I possibly explain clearly to a man who betrayed his oath and stabbed his own monarch in the back?"

Listening to Ed's sarcastic words, James replied angrily: "You...if I didn't stab that sword at the beginning, now in King's Landing...forget it, you wouldn't believe it anyway."

Ed glanced at James who was hesitant to speak. He was silent and didn't say much.

Seeing that he didn't want to talk to him anymore, James said in a sincere tone: "Sir Ed, although it is impossible for us to sit and drink together in a friendly manner.

But it is my honor to know a knight like you!"

After saying this, James was about to turn around and walk out of the cell. At this moment, Eddard said: "Tell Cersei that I am willing to plead guilty!"
