Watching the two of them shake off their disappointment, Witte began to talk about business: ensuring that history develops along its original trajectory, and that no big mistakes can occur if things change in time.
"As of today, only the four of us brothers know that Renly and I can do magic, and I didn't even tell Maester Cressen. But today Renly and I showed off magic, firstly to prove that I am very smart, and secondly to prove that we
Both Renly and Renly have the ability to protect themselves."
"Big brother and second brother, what do you want to do about the current situation?"
Robert "Now that Prince Doran of Dorne in the south and the Tyrells of Highgarden in the west have declared their support for the king, we are surrounded by enemies on both sides, and the rebels who want to overthrow the king have been defeated by the north. Either we stay to contain Dorne and Highgarden.
, or abandon the Storm Land and go north directly, now the various vassals are also discussing."
Stannis: "The troops that Highgarden can mobilize are several times more than ours, and the combat effectiveness of the Dornish people cannot be underestimated. There is not much chance of winning in a frontal attack. We can only fight defensive battles and wait for northern reinforcements, and King's Landing can't get through if they block the northern reinforcements."
Come. If you give up the Stormlands directly, you will definitely be plundered by Highgarden and Dorne. This is the home of all of us. By then, the army will be demoralized and even the rebels will defect."
Werther looked at Robert
"Brother, have you ever thought about the purpose of this uprising?"
"What else can I do? Overthrow that mad king, kill Rhaegar, and get my fiancée back!"
"What happens after that? The king and prince die, who will be the king of the seven kingdoms?"
Robert and the three northern regions now just want to kill the king for their own reasons. As for how to divide the fruits after victory, no one has thought about it and can't tell for the moment.
Stannis said, "According to the law of succession, Rhaegar will succeed the King after the death of the Mad King. But this time our uprising is to overthrow them, so the first heir is Prince Rhaegar's child, and the second is Prince Rhaegar's brother Wei."
Prince Siris."
"Big brother and second brother, please don't forget that our ancestors have intermarried with the Targaryen family many times. Grandma is also Princess Leilei of the Targaryen family. If a major accident occurs, eldest brother Robert is also qualified to inherit the throne, and let the Mad King
Do you want to wait for his descendants to inherit the throne and kill us for revenge after he grows up?"
"Indeed, that eldest brother is the most suitable heir to the Iron Throne." Stannis was also excited that his eldest brother was going to be the king of the Seven Kingdoms.
Witte continued, "The Mad King is incompetent and increasingly cruel. Many lords from all over the world are on the verge of eruption. In the name of ending the Mad King's incompetent rule, the eldest brother has the goal of an uprising and can unite the lords from all over the country."
The eldest brother with the right to inherit by blood sits on the Iron Throne and becomes the king. Only then can everyone have a common goal, unite the rebels and boost morale! So it’s you."
When Robert heard these words, his face was already congested and red. His face was calm and silent, but his heart was already in turmoil.
Then let the next two of you listen to my analysis to see if it makes sense;
"Since you want to be the king, you cannot block Dorne and Highgarden in the south and let the northern coalition attack King's Landing. Therefore, Robert must go north to join the rebel army as soon as possible and let the rebel army support you as the king to attack King's Landing. This is the most important thing
"Every action revolves around this point." XX began to analyze the situation. Robert and Stannis nodded without saying a word, and Renly also nodded. I don't know if he understands or not.
"First, we must eliminate the royalists in our territory as soon as possible and unite the entire Stormland."
"I'll do this. Some vassals are too slow to listen to the call. They must have different intentions. It's easy to deal with them." Robert is sure that he can solve it.
"Then the second place is the Reach, which has the largest number of troops. Are the eldest and second brothers familiar with those who can command the war?"
"Those people in the Reach are good at counting money. Except for Randyll Tarly, everyone else in the war is a coward. Moreover, the Tyrell family used to be gardeners. They sold their lords before becoming dukes. The entire Reach is more than
Half of the vassals refused to obey them. Every time they went to war, they were cheating and cheating, and they did nothing to help others." Robert looked down upon them very much.
"Lady Olenna has the final say on all matters in the Tyrell family. Her son Mace Tyrell, the inflatable fish, is just a rich fat man." Stannis also knows some things.
"That's good. Brother, please ask the messenger crow to send a letter to Mrs. Olenna of the Tyrell family, saying that you recognize their loyalty to the royal family, and you rebels have no choice but to raise the flag of rebellion. You don't want the seven kingdoms to
The dukes and nobles would lose their heads at any time. They proposed to give some suggestions to the other side. First, the armies of both sides agreed to fight somewhere, and they pretended to be defeated and fled, saying that they did not want to make both sides miserable. Second, let them directly attack the siege.
Stay at Storm's End and don't plunder the towns you pass by."
Robert and Stannis heard that such a plan would be beneficial to themselves, but can Highgarden agree?
"Lady Olenna is a smart person. This not only shows that they are loyal to the royal family, but both parties have nothing to lose. There is also a threat in the letter. If there is a fight, both the Reach and the Stormlands will be in ruins. They are also afraid of our revenge.
The most important thing is that the Tyrell family does not have enough control. Most of their vassals do not want to fight, and some even want to kill the Mad King. Moreover, the entire people in the Reach are not close to the royal family and just want to be in chaos.
It’s just the benefits of fishing. All these must be considered, so this letter can only be given to Mrs. Olenna and not to the inflatable fish.”
"Then Stannis, please write a letter in my name first and arrange a meeting with the envoys from both sides. If possible, I will lead the main force of the Stormlands to go north as soon as possible. If this fails, we will find another way."
Robert himself basically didn't do any of these formal things and let his second brother do the work directly
"By the way, let the envoy say something, asking them to bring more food and grass when they besiege the city. If you besiege the city for a day, it will be a siege for a year. Haha."
"Then the second brother will defend Storm's End, Robert will become king, and the future king's hometown will be captured, which will have a huge impact on morale."
Stannis nodded and confirmed, "There won't be many defenders left for me, but Storm's End is difficult to break. I will collect more food, grass and medicine to be prepared."

Witte went on to say, "Renly's magic cannot be exposed for the time being, unless an important person is seriously injured before he can be saved. The north and west have been resolved, and the only thing left is Dorne in the south."
Robert said, "I'm not very worried about Dorne. They have never sent troops to fight in decades. They only support verbally."
"No one can guarantee that they will not send troops this time, and this time they will overthrow the king. Their sister is the princess of Prince Rhaegar." Witte took a sip of water.
"Let me write a letter to Prince Doran of Dorne in the name of my eldest brother Robert, explaining that I first understand their attitude of loyalty to the royal family, but it was his brother-in-law Rhaegar who was sentenced to marriage. The mad king slaughtered nobles wantonly. You rebels
After breaking King's Landing, they only wanted to overthrow the royal family and protect the lives of their sister and children. If they don't send troops at best, at worst let them come to Storm's End with Highgarden."
"These guarantees don't seem to be enough, do they?" Stannis asked
"So as Robert's fourth brother, I have to go to Dorne personally to be a hostage"
"The Dornish will kill you first to sacrifice the banner!" Robert shouted
Witte slowly explained the reason: "The eldest brother must go north first, and the second brother must defend Storm's End. The best situation is that Dorne does not send troops! The second is that Dorne agrees to our request and only besieges Storm's End, so the pressure on the second brother is
It will be even bigger. The worst-case scenario is that Highgarden and Dorne ignore Storm's End and directly support the royal family. At that time, the neutral West will inevitably turn to the royal faction! The Reach, which has the most troops, and the richest West, cultivate
After decades of Dorne, as well as the pro-royal faction within the Northern Rebel Army, together, who can stop your rebel army?
The Reach is too close to King's Landing, Dorne is too far away from King's Landing, and my magic, these three things are the guarantee of my safety."
It turns out that Dorne sent 10,000 troops to support the royal family, but what they feared most were the variables. They were afraid that Robert would be defeated, so they had to find a way to increase the gap in military strength between the two sides.
Robert looked at the three of them for a long time and said with emotion, "My good brothers!"
Now the strategy is decided
The eldest brother, Robert, quickly eliminated the royalists in the Stormlands. After falsely defeating the battle with Highgarden, he led the main force to immediately go north to join the three northern coalition forces.
The second brother Stannis mobilized supplies and defended Storm's End before the northern army moved south to support
Third brother Renly assisted in treating the seriously injured.
The fourth child goes to stabilize Dorne.
Robert held several people's hands together and held "Our Family Motto"
The four people shouted "A prairie fire!"
Since then, the four brothers of the Baratheon family have begun to ascend to the stage of power.
