Chapter 253: Sleeping in the open air

 When the little devil Tyrion was brought, most of the nobles recognized him. After all, Tyrion had a big problem after Tyrosh bought the blue Valyrian steel sword at a high price last year.

In the limelight, bards from many places have told his story.

At that time, the castle had not yet been built, but Werther still invited Tyrion and other high-ranking nobles to his home for several meals. Nymeria naturally recognized him: "Hurry and untie you two, they are really the Tyrion of the West."

Come with Count Jorah of Bear Island and get some more military rations!"

Jorah and Tyrion finally felt at ease, and they rubbed their red wrists and walked to the sand.

Nymeria returned the long claw to Jorah: "Count Jorah, why are you two here?"

Jorah took the sword and hung it on his waist: "It's a long story."

The two of them told the people present about their experiences along the way.

"You are so lucky!"

Jorah heard a knight next to Nymeria speak out and asked: "Who are you?"

Earl Harman Uller and his brother Sir Ulric Uller are also very strange. This man brings more than twenty men as Nymeria's personal guards. These people almost never take off their helmets, even

I only take off the visor around the mouth of my helmet when eating, and rarely communicate with others.

Their armor was the shiniest silver-plated armor. When the leader went out to fight, he showed off his Valyrian steel sword. The long swords of the other twenty people were all inlaid with silver. Their martial arts were also as usual.

The knights are different. They don't stab at the neck or other vital parts, but stab at the heart with every move.

Nymeria: "This is Ser Dickon Tarly of Gray Gallows Island, Commander-in-Chief of the Dragon Guard-Blade Warriors."

The tall Dickon Tarly was only 15 years old this year. He had some sad stubble on his face hidden under his visor. He saluted Jorah: "Hello, Count Jorah."

Queen of the famous family! Jorah also saluted him: "Hello, Sir Dickon."

Everyone is still puzzled. Currently, Duke Werther is the most mysterious of the nine ministers. He has only about twenty soldiers under his command. It is said that as long as he joins this army, he will be made a knight immediately. They have no idea what Werther wants.

If you ask them what they are doing, they will all be very strict and won’t reveal a single word.

Tyrion looked at the people around him and counted: "One, two, three, four, how did I find that the closer we are to Tyrosh City, the more Valyrian steel products there are?"

Nymeria took off her helmet and fanned the wind with her hands: "Witt will auction a sword in the second half of this year. Tyrion, do you have the spare money to buy another one?"

Tyrion waved his hand quickly: "No! This time I have run away from home, and I have to rely on Duke Werther for food. I have no money!"

Nymeria: "The ship from Tyrosh has returned, and the entire territory of Dorne has been blocked. There will not be a ship to take you to Tyrosh in a short time. You two can only follow us temporarily."<

/p>

Jorah was worried about not being able to find anything to do, and this opportunity came to him without meritorious deeds: "Can I participate in the battle?"

Nymeria thought for a while: "The king ordered that nobles from other regions cannot participate in the Dorne War, but you two are rescued prisoners, so of course you can participate in the battle!"

Tyrion: "Yes! We were captured first!"

Nymeria: "But you two have special status and can only stay with me. Count Jorah can fight with me. Tyrion, can you be responsible for the logistics?"

Tyrion: "Haha, I'm really afraid that the lady will let me go to the front line with a spear. I'll have no problem leaving the logistics to me."

Nymeria did not really leave the logistics work to Tyrion, but it was still managed by the Dornish people. She just gave Tyrion something to do and submitted some documents.

The battlefield was cleaned, the horses that had run away were recovered, all the weapons that could still be used were packed into trucks, and the troops began to rest and interrogate the prisoners on the spot.

Military rations are also distributed to everyone.

Tyrion held a piece of chocolate in his left hand, a soaked pemmican in his right hand, and wheat cakes and water bags on his lap: "Do the Dornish people eat these when they fight?"

Pemmican is extruded from cooked minced meat and then dehydrated in the sun. It can be stored for a long time and tastes good after being soaked in water. Jorah finished it in a few bites and was eating the chocolate bit by bit with his mouth.

: "The chocolate comes from the Stormlands, the meatloaf should be from the Dornish people, and this military ration is better than most of us in the north."

Tyrion: "I know, but the soldiers are all supplied with supplies of this grade. These things are not cheap. How long does it take to prepare these supplies?"

Jorah: "What's the problem?"

"No, I just thought that with such good food, I would definitely get a lot of credit by following Nymeria." Tyrion did not say what he was thinking.

Jorah: "Eat quickly, we will probably start marching again soon."

After resting, the troops did not go far, but came to camp at the water source. At the same time, they sent scout cavalry to the north and east.

Jorah and Tyrion arrived at Nymeria's tent. The nobles and officers had already arrived and were reporting the casualties.

Nymeria: "Take away the tokens of the dead compatriots and bury the bodies on the spot. How many prisoners are there?"

Ashara: "In the afternoon, more than a dozen people were seriously injured and died. Now there are 342 people left, 86 men, and the rest are all women."

Nymeria: "Keep them first. When we leave, we will need their help to spread false news. Give them good food and don't kill more people."

"Understood!"

Jorah and Tyrion only participated in the middle of the meeting. They had only half-understanding of many plans. They listened carefully and did not speak blindly. After the military meeting was over, they found Ashara and asked for clarification.

It turned out that this unit was not the main force. It led all the cavalry across the death zone to launch a surprise attack. It was just to spread false news and delay Yin Lunwood's troops from going north, buying time for the north to attack Bremen City. If they stayed here, they would retreat soon.
In order to ensure the delaying effect, Nymeria showed up with the dragon and many generals, and sent a special person to deliberately whisper about the imminent arrival of infantry in the place where the prisoners were held, so that the prisoners would get false information.

The war here has temporarily come to an end. The northern city of Bremen has been besieged for two days by the Dane and Manwoody families. The Manwoody family has a large inventory of siege equipment. If they cannot get support, the castle will fall soon.

The river in Yinlonwood City was poisoned by the Fowler family upstream. Fortunately, the river flow was large and the toxins were diluted, so no deaths occurred. However, there was excrement everywhere in the city. The Bone Road Weir stationed here

The earl sent a letter to "Old Falcon" Franklin Fowler, vowing to send all the excrement in the city to the Fowler family to eat!

But when Count Weir wrote the letter, everyone in the city was almost exhausted and could only say angry words.

The Gray Castle on the Sea of ​​Dorne was first occupied by the escaped Jordanian family. The island was originally a prison that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. The Dingwater family who were ordered to pursue it could not take it for a while, and they were in a stalemate and sent letters waiting for reinforcements.

After Nymeria and the dragon appeared at the source of the Vance River, but the dragon did not attack, the main force of Yinlenwood immediately stopped marching, began to retreat to Wells Town, and sent cavalry south to conduct reconnaissance.

.The two places are very close, only a few days away. Count Anders Yinlenwood wants to eliminate his opponent in one fell swoop at Vance River.

~~~

After Tyene recovered, Werther arranged his work to be full, even taking care of city cleaning issues that he had never bothered with before. This time, logistics officer Garlan Tyrell felt much more relaxed.<

/p>

One day, when Renly saw Werther continuing to work despite the dark circles under his eyes, he secretly gave Werther two bottles of Vitre after dinner.

The little dragon Petvaha is now a lot bigger. Without Odawein, he is the King of the Sky of Tyrosh. During the day, he would fight with a few direwolves when he had nothing to do. He would also go to the sea to fish for fish from time to time. Every time

It was very excited when it held a fish in its mouth and looked at the wolves drooling on the shore. At night, it liked to sneak into Werther's bedroom and look at the five dragon eggs that were still hatching.

Witte came to the largest blacksmith shop in the city today to instruct Gendry, the bastard son recognized by Robert, to learn mechanical construction.

Gendry looks very much like young Robert, that is, he is very similar to Werther and Renly. He was taken care of by the dead old prime minister since he was a child. He learned a very good blacksmith trade but was illiterate. After coming to Tyrosh

Then I started studying again.

Gendry has a good character and is very self-aware. Werther felt that he would be more promising than Edric Storm at Storm's End. Since he was willing to learn, Werther taught him. Werther did not have time to study magic every day, so he originally had a bachelor's degree in college.

The mechanical knowledge can be regarded as being passed down.

When he came, he only had a few rags with him, as well as a warhammer and a bull-headed helmet he made himself. Now Witte asked him to manage his own weapons workshop, and he had already made a full set of armor with his own wages.

Come out, there are two raised horns on each shoulder armor, which are the characteristics of his armor.

"This kind of heavy-duty spring cannot be made by the current machinery for processing, and the pressure is not enough. You can change it to a steel plate type. With the current technology, it can be made suitable for carriages." Witte wrote and drew on the drawings and popped the steel plate.

Write down the structure and production method of yellow.

Gendry: "How much weight can this bear?"

"My formula is written here, you can calculate it yourself!" Witte is only responsible for teaching, and will not give him the results directly. He only knows how to calculate it by himself.

There is a semi-finished carriage in the room. The carriage body is very long and has eight wide wheels, which are used to load wood.

The disputed land is gradually developing. A large amount of wood has been cut down and transported to the shipyard. Three large towns have been formed in the coastal area. As the forests in the coastal area are gradually cleared, transporting wood from the inland to the sea has become a big problem.

Question.

The original carriage wheels had narrow wheels, which was very inconvenient in the swampy and disputed areas. Transportation required a lot of manpower and animal power. Now there is an urgent need for such professional vehicles.

Wirth: "When you build such a qualified carriage and leave a complete set of drawings, I will share with you 10% of the profit from the sale, and for this credit I will officially canonize you as a knight!"

"Really? Thank you Duke Werther!" Gendry was very excited after hearing this, and he became so motivated that his hair almost fell off.

Werther can do it himself, but since he is his half-apprentice and Robert's son, he should take care of him.

Werther looked at the half-finished carriage: "It seems that the progress is going fast. You will be a wealthy knight in a short time. Now you can think about your own emblem."

"The emblem must first have a shield, and then what should we add to it?" Gendry couldn't figure it out again.

Wirth: "You are very tanned, so use a black base for your shield. And if your armor is not a cow, then add a bull pattern to the shield! In order to highlight your identity, add a gold border to the shield, and the bull pattern is also gold.

!"

Gendry drew pictures while listening to Witte's words. After he finished drawing according to Witte's instructions, he picked up the piece of paper and said, "Then I'll use this!"

Wirth: "This emblem will be with you for a lifetime, you have to make a careful decision! Nowadays, senior craftsmen in Westeros will engrave their names or coats of arms on their works. In the future, as long as it is a carriage made by you, this emblem will also be

Inlaid on the carriage."

"Haha!" Gendry thought and giggled.

The craftsmen in the workshop also began to congratulate him. He couldn't compete with his blacksmith skills, and he couldn't keep up with his studies. He was still the king's illegitimate son, and he was about to become a nobleman through his craftsmanship. He could still do it by trying to flatter him first.

After Werther finished handling the matters here, he wandered to Nancheng Square, where a large indoor theater had just been built.

Opera and dance drama are very old entertainment activities in Westeros, but they are usually popular in civilian areas. Nobles dance in person at parties, and the only few theaters are semicircular open-air venues.

.

The catering and entertainment industry is one of the characteristic pillars of Waitelosi. Witte spares no effort to support its development. What we need to do now is to make it high-end and regular.

The name of the theater is the Werther Grand Theatre. It is located behind the temple complex, with the sea on one side and the main road on the other. It is one of Werther's private properties.

Since there is no similar building in the world, the original drawings were all drawn by Witte and then handed over to professional construction craftsmen for modification. Entering from the gate is a high-ceiling hall with three floors inside, and the crowds flow through different steps of the hall.

The first floor is the main stage of the theater and the entire auditorium. The second and third floors are balcony-style boxes. There is also a place behind the stage for performers to rest and put on makeup. The interior of this building is extremely spacious.
p>

Originally, this building had been completed a long time ago, but Witte and the craftsmen did not understand the internal structure, resulting in poor internal sound transmission. After many modifications, it has only been officially opened now.

The building volume is the second largest in the entire city of Tyrosi after the main castle, but the cost is much less than the castle. Werther added a lot of things to the home he built for himself.

The Werther Grand Theater officially opened yesterday. This new thing is very popular, but there are too few repertoires. Currently, there are only two repertoires: "The Mercy King Yin Geng and His Nine Mistresses" and "Meereen City - Werther Fights the Poisonous Dragon"

The performances took turns, but they couldn't stop the Tyroshi people's enthusiasm, and the venue was full.

The theater is open from after lunch break until evening. Tickets are cheaper during the day and are the most expensive at night when everyone is resting. However, Werther himself has the largest private room in the best location on the third floor.

No entry is allowed if you are disheveled!

Soldiers were guarding and checking everywhere, and they were not allowed to enter even if they were not wearing clean clothes and had a ticket. However, when Werther came out of the blacksmith workshop, covered in oil and stains, no one said a word, and he walked straight to the box on the third floor.

There were still people in the box, and only the guards authorized by Werther were allowed in. Renly, Loras and little Rose Margaery were sitting in the front row of the big box. Margaery was holding the child in her arms, and the three of them were having a heated conversation.

They were discussing which mistress King Yong loved. Robb and Saran sat behind them and listened carefully to the three people's opinions. Tyene, Quili, and several maids were also eating with their three children.

Werther said hello to everyone, went to a seat in the corner, sat down, and prepared to sleep secretly for a while.

"Secina from Lys is the most beautiful!"

The screams of Margaery and Trine startled Werther awake again after he had just closed his eyes, and he forgot to turn on the mute magic.

Just when he was about to cast the spell, Saran Farman walked up to him: "Duke Werther, do you have time? I have something to say."
