Robert rapped his knuckles on the table, making a loud sound.
Although Robert still has a big belly, he is much thinner than before. He has recently started practicing martial arts again and wants to go to the battlefield himself in this war.
"This war is for everyone's common benefit. The lords in the royal territory will send 5,000 infantry as a landing force, and the royal fleet will all be dispatched. I hope you can mobilize your respective vassals. Ed, how are you doing in the north?
?"
Robert didn't wait for Ed to speak, and then said, "I almost forgot that the Golden Robes of King's Landing will dispatch 1,500 people to escort the poor people of Flea Bottom in King's Landing, and take merchant ships to the Stepstone Islands to be pioneers in the later stages of the war."<
/p>
There are notices posted everywhere in King's Landing to colonize the Stepstone Islands. Men will be allocated five acres of land to cultivate, and women will be given four acres of land. In addition, the king will also give some materials for building houses.
There is currently no lord on the Stepped Stone Islands. A war of conquest has been launched in the name of the king. Once conquered, it will belong to the king's direct territory. The king has ordered a two-year tax exemption. Even if it is entrusted to a lord in the future, they must abide by the two-year tax exemption order.
.Many poor people have signed up. Although there is not much land, it is better than starving to death in King's Landing.
Ed Stark continued, "A total of 1,000 cavalry from the North are stationed in the Green Fork River Basin, 500 cavalry are on standby at Graywater Watch, and 3,000 infantry can go south at any time. In addition, a small number of naval forces have already set off."<
/p>
Robert nodded. Eddard had told him privately that the people in the North would be fine fighting in shallow seas, but a large number of people would probably get sick before they could fight in oceans. The small amount Eddard said was really a small amount, and it would not exceed 200 people. Then
Ask again
"Lord Jon Arryn, where is the Vale?"
Prime Minister Jon Arryn "500 knights and 3,000 infantry from the valley will be stationed in King's Landing, and about 100 warships will be assigned to the command of the royal fleet."
His adoptive father gave Robert unreserved support. There were many valleys and mountains but little cultivated area, and there were still a large number of wildlings in the territory that had not been conquered. Now that so many troops could be sent to maintain law and order in King's Landing, Robert was very moved and picked up a bottle of wine to give
Jon Arryn's wine glass is filled.
Robert looked at his brother-in-law, "Edmure Tully, where is the Riverlands?"
Edmure Tully was still thinking about other things, but he came back to his senses after hearing Robert's words
"Your Majesty the King, 1,000 cavalry and 4,000 infantry are on standby."
The expressions of the people at the table varied. These figures must have been lied. The Tully family was no longer what it used to be, and Robert ignored him.
The above three territories will not directly participate in the war. They will send troops to maintain the stability of the continent, fearing rebellion in the Riverlands and the Crown Territory. When Archmaester Pycelle heard a number, he recorded it. This information will later be compiled into the history of the kingdom.
Enter the book.
Robert "The troops are going out next, Lord Savon Botley?"
"Your Majesty, the Iron Islands have dispatched a total of ten thousand naval forces and three hundred longships."
Shavon Botley was promoted to the position of Duke of the Iron Islands by Robert, but his position was not stable. Some lords were too powerful, and he did not have the deep background of the Greyjoy family.
The Iron Islands originally had twice as many troops as this. After the Greyjoy Rebellion, a large number of ironmen joined the Royal Fleet. There was no one left in the Iron Islands, and it was no longer possible to form a large fleet like before.
Then ask "Ser Kevan Lannister."
Kevan knew that James and Cersei were having trouble, and the people sitting at the conference table were all of higher status than him, so he stood up and saluted Robert and everyone, "The West will dispatch all 300 warships, as well as 500 cavalry and
3,000 infantrymen assisted in the landing operations."
Robert was very satisfied with this number. If the Western Territory did not launch a general mobilization, these would be exactly half of the current strength of the Western Territory.
Robert "Lord Mace Tyrell."
Mace Tyrell proudly said "800 warships and corresponding armies!"
800 warships sounds quite scary. A large double-decker sailing warship counts as one, and a rowing boat with 10 people can also count as one. The paper that was handed over from various places was clearly written. This inflatable
Mr. Yu couldn't tell the shape of the boat at all, so he summed them all up and reported the total number.
Everyone understands this character. Now is the military meeting convened by the king. As long as the king does not blame him, no one will say anything.
Archmaester Pycelle also knew this person very well. He opened the previous paper and copied the contents into the record book.
Robert knew that they were only sending troops to Storm's End Castle, so he moved directly to the next "Renly."
Renly "100 large galleons, 1000 knights, 5000 foot soldiers."
Robert was a little surprised, "So many people?"
Renly smiled, "We in the Stormland have suffered the most plunder from pirates. I heard that the vassals were very active in fighting pirates this time. I asked them to bring 100 people over, and when we arrived, we found that there would be 300 people."
Robert nodded, "Prince Quentin Martell, how's it going in Dorne?"
Quentin Martell is not tall, strong and stocky, with a little silver in his black hair. He has an ordinary appearance, black eyes, a pointed forehead and a pointed nose.
Quentin Martell was three years younger than Renly. He had just passed his coming-of-age ceremony. He stood up and saluted, and said with a serious expression, "Your Majesty, Dorne has never had many warships. This time we will invest 1,000 cavalry and 4,000."
Infantry."
Robert only nodded, and there was no bargaining session as Quentin Martell originally thought.
Robert "Different from the previous Targaryen campaigns, this time we are going to completely incorporate the Stepstone Islands into the territory of the Seven Kingdoms, build castles, ports, garrison and reclamation on the islands. Tyrosh's mercenaries, Myr
The three sides of the city and the city of Lys are in military conflict with each other. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Renly."
Renly took out a letter from his arms and handed it to everyone, "I want to tell you some news. My brother Vit Baratheon has reached a secret agreement with the governor of Volantis. Volantis will send a fleet to hold Lys back."
There are only two of our enemies left in the city's fleet."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"That's really great. Our enemies have changed from three to two." Mace Tyrell said happily. Although the River Bend has a large fleet, it has not had a naval battle for a long time. How is its combat effectiveness?
I don’t even know.
Renly went on to say, "Witt has a governor in Myr City as an internal response. If we are lucky, the fleet in Myr City will be much smaller."
Some people had originally prepared for the war to last for several years. Now everyone began to have an optimistic view of this battlefield. It was expected that the war would be over within a year or less. After praising Werther, they began to whisper to each other.
to comment on the letter Renly gave.
Quentin Martell learned from his father that this war was planned by Werther to divert the gradually accumulated conflicts in Westeros and establish a common external enemy. People on another continent can still grasp the situation and resolve it in advance.
He had defeated one and a half enemies. He was only three years younger than him and could definitely do better than him. He clenched his fists under the table.
Robb Stark sat in the gallery and listened to everyone praising his master. He felt very honored. Although the Werthers were not in the magic school and Renly taught them, they all followed the contents of the manuscripts left by Werther.
Come and learn.
Morford Velaryon had always believed that Werther came to power through his strong personal strength and the power of his two brothers. Stannis rarely mentioned the brothers. Now he wants to know more about Werther, who he has met once.
What kind of person is he?
Garlan Tyrell was thinking about his father's speech just now. What would he say and do if it were him?
The little devil Tyrion began to study Werther's behavior a few years ago. He believed that no one is perfect and Werther must have flaws.
Robert "Everyone cannot take it lightly. If they don't send troops, they will also send scattered pirates. We must also be prepared for a comprehensive confrontation with the three city-states. Since this is a must-win war, we must also minimize losses."<
/p>
Robert stood up and looked at everyone, "I will inform your respective subordinates today that the three northern regions will proceed as planned. For the offensive, the armies from the eastern part of the mainland will assemble at Greenstone Castle in the Stormlands, and the armies from the western part of the continent will assemble at Sunspear City in Dorne.<
