The retreat horn was finally blown, and the countless Dothraki warriors who were fighting on the front lines until they were exhausted finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then slowly evacuated the solid barrier reef of Gol Doho like the ebb of the sea.
The command of the Dothraki is very simple, so simple that everyone can hear Khal's order.
Charge or withdraw.
It is also relatively rare for the Dothraki to fail to take down the enemy in one wave.
The Free Trade Cities around the Dothraki Sea almost never take the initiative to go out to fight.
They huddled within the city walls, and the soldiers had long since lost the courage to fight the Dothraki in the open.
They will only use money to send away these horse kings who are heading west to fight the autumn wind. Since the problem can be solved with money, it is not a problem in their eyes.
As expected, the Khals who accepted the 'gift' will not come back in a short time, but how long this time will last depends on the greed of each Khal.
After Khal Drogo unified his father's old tribe, he defeated two weak khalasar in succession on the Great Sea of Grass, killed their Khal, and expanded the size of the tribe.
Therefore, the Dothraki are the most courageous and skilled warriors, because they fight all the time, and only fighting and killing will make them stronger.
This time Khal Drogo led the khalasar westward to harvest some Rhoynar villages and capture some slaves to use for himself or sell to Slaver's Bay in exchange for food and weapons.
However, Khal Drogo led his khalasar up the Qin River to the star city of Na-Sa, which was once the royal capital of the Rhoynar and is now abandoned, and harvested a wave of villages and towns here.
Then we continued up the Lorne River to the Upper Lorne River Basin, only to find that the place had long been deserted and had been completely swept away.
All the Rhoynar along the way left their homes and rushed in the direction of Andalos. Viserys provided them with shelter and a series of preferential policies, which happened to avoid Khal Drogo's sweep this time.
Naturally, King Ma, who had gained nothing, was unwilling to give up, so he continued to track the whereabouts of these villages, and finally intercepted these culprits in the ruined city of Ge Duohe on the banks of the Three Forks River.
These are the people who dare to pull teeth from his tiger's mouth.
So Khal Drogo directly led the khalasar to attack without saying a word, demanding that the blood of these lambs be used to extinguish his anger.
However, he originally thought that these soldiers would be rotten to the core like the other defenders of the Free Trade City, with no fighting power. However, he did not expect that the other side would persist until the end after faltering several times.
Seeing that the heavy attack losses were too heavy, Drogo could only order his men to blow the retreat horn.
...
The Dothraki's marching and fighting was very simple. The large sewn animal skin tent was the residence of Kaa, with lights lit inside, while the rest of the tribe dug holes in the ground and used straw shoes as a roof to rest.
The boiled horse meat exudes an unpleasant smell in the pot. These are dead horses. The Dothraki are not taboo about eating horse meat and drinking fermented mare milk.
In Kaa's big animal skin tent, there were black sausages, blood pies and beet soup, and bursts of fragrance came from them.
Deng Deng Deng——
At this moment, a rush of footsteps came from outside, and then a person opened the curtain and walked in. It was the leader of a Kas group.
A moment later, chaotic noises came from the tent.
It turned out that he was questioning why Khal Drogo suddenly ordered a retreat. It was clear that if he persisted for a while, the 'lambs' on the other side would collapse.
However, several Bloodriders standing behind Drogo heard that Kou actually dared to speak harshly to Kaa, and they all pulled out the scimitars from their waists.
Drogo's cold face also showed an angry expression for the first time, and then he stood up from behind the table in the big tent.
Regardless of victory or defeat, no one can question the authority and orders of Kaa. Otherwise, they are challenging Kaa's position and want to become Kaa themselves.
This is Dothraki rule.
What's more, at the moment, he has only suffered a slight setback and has not lost the battle. There are people who can't wait to jump out and want to challenge him.
Drogo was naturally extremely angry when faced with the challenge, and his dark eyes were filled with clear murderous intent.
The opponent's face was obviously a little unnatural. He did have the idea of challenging Kaa, but in the face of Drogo's vicious reputation, he actually felt a little nervous in his heart.
But Drogo had already accepted his challenge, and he spread out his hands without any weapons. He seemed to be undefended and walked towards the bandit openly.
And he raised his chin, indicating that the other party could pull out the scimitar.
Faced with Drogo's humiliation, as a warlike Dothraki, the leader of Khas finally couldn't bear it anymore, pulled out the scimitar from his waist, and roared angrily.
Then he rushed towards the defenseless Drogo. Drogo wanted to fight him with his bare hands, so he took this opportunity to kill him and become the Khal himself.
However, not too much time passed.
Maybe just a few seconds.
puff--
Blood spurted suddenly on the animal skin tent, and then slowly slid down a trail of blood.
Looking inside the tent from the outside, you can see the tall figure still standing in place.
And the Kou who challenged Drogo actually used a scimitar to insert into his neck. The corpse knelt down on the spot, with his waist backwards. The body presented a weird and twisted angle that was difficult to achieve, and the bones of the wrist were all twisted.
Crushed into pieces.
Then several Dothraki came in from outside, dragged the body out of the tent, and threw it into the wilderness.
Soon another period of time passed.
Two Dothraki came out of the tent, one of them was Koso, the bloodrider of Khal Drogo, and the other seemed to be his follower.
Then the two men got on their horses and ran straight in the direction of Ge Duohe.
...
night.
There is a young warrior among the soldiers of Andalos. He is Mir, the former friend of the knight Bessie who was the bodyguard of Viserys.
However, the fate of life was different. His friend fought bravely and was canonized as a knight by His Majesty the King. He became a noble and rose to the top, while he was still an unknown captain in the army.
The family gap between the two is also obvious. Bessie's mother also lives in the castle, managing some servants and taking care of the two princesses.
Because of his timidity, Mir had nothing. But for this reason, many familiar faces around him disappeared, but he was still alive and became a veteran.
Now he is leading some soldiers who were rotated out not long ago to dig holes in the soft soil in front of the formation.
Dig a hole?
Mir didn't know why His Majesty the Kingdom gave such an order, but the reality was that it was so fucked up.
