Lord Paxter Redwin's fleet came to attack quietly under the cover of night.
Wow——
The warship split the waves, the night was quiet, all the warships extinguished their lights, and silently approached the direction of Dragonstone Island.
The sea breeze howls.
The soldiers of the fleet all held their weapons and stood on the deck anxiously, waiting for their fate to come.
Because no one can guarantee that they will survive the next war.
However, Earl Redwin's sneak attack strategy was very good, but there were still problems in the execution stage.
The sneak attack was still noticed by Dragonstone Island.
A patrolling longship discovered the silent Qingting Island fleet on the sea in time, and then quickly issued a warning, alerting the distant lighthouse, and finally alerted the entire Dragonstone defenders.
Rumble——
The next moment, the earth-shattering sound of war drums sounded.
The last fleet still loyal to Targaryen took the initiative to attack under the orders of commander Sir Geoffrey, and the two sides launched a confrontation on the sea.
The alarm bell of the Dragonstone Lighthouse is ringing, warning everyone on the island to be vigilant and guard against enemy attacks.
Queen Layla was quickly moved to the castle to rest because she was pregnant and emotionally depressed and could no longer be stimulated.
The chief butler, Shad, and the instructor ran to the beach, stepped on the soft sand and looked into the distance.
Viserys originally wanted to go with him and see the real war scene with his own eyes, but he was ruthlessly rejected.
As the only son of the Targaryen family, Viserys's safety does not only represent him alone.
The silver-haired boy was helplessly led into the castle by a maid, and at the special request of the instructor, two guards were posted to 'protect' him outside the bedroom door.
Bang——
The heavy brown wooden door to the bedroom was tightly closed and bolted.
Two heavily armed guards guarded both sides of the gate to prevent Viserys from sneaking out uneasily.
Viserys was locked in the room alone, with his personal freedom restricted. The boy sat on the soft bed and froze for a long time, scratching his slightly curly silver hair.
Finally, he sighed helplessly.
"Really are…"
Compared to half a year ago.
Viserys' bedroom on Dragonstone is now richer in items.
There is an old and low bedside table, a half-burned candle is emitting light, and there is a book with a bookmark on the table. This is a book about the continent of Essos, telling the story of a
What a traveler sees and hears.
Viserys was very interested in this kind of book and would read it for a while before going to bed every day.
On the other side is a bookcase, which is also filled with various books. In fact, Viserys naturally knew the importance of knowledge without the old maester reminding him.
At that time, he was just frightened by the attack, and he was also worried about the future, so he practiced swordsmanship hard in order to protect himself.
However, now he also understands that swordsmanship cannot be mastered in a day or two.
Then Viserys looked at a brown wooden box in the corner, then jumped off the bed and walked to the wooden box.
beep--
The sound of horns outside the window was still melodious, the sound of war drums was vibrating, and the faint shouts of killing could be heard.
The silver-haired boy could feel that his heart in his chest was beating rapidly with the rumbling sound, and the hot blood was flowing rapidly throughout his body.
Viserys put a hand on his chest, feeling his heart beating rapidly.
He didn't know why he felt like this, but this feeling was giving him fearless courage.
Even if he is only a seven-year-old child.
"Blood and fire come from the same source."
The boy didn't know why he suddenly recited the Targaryen family's motto, and then opened the wooden box in the corner, revealing the items inside.
A set of small tailor-made leather armor was neatly placed, and there was also a dagger that was also tailor-made for him and had been sharpened.
The sharpness of this sword cannot be said to be as sharp as cutting iron, but at least in daily practice, Viserys can use this 'short sword' to cut off the head of the straw man with one sword.
Viserys then put on his leather armor and put on his short sword.
Then the boy moved over a small stool, stepped on the small stool and reached the edge of the narrow window on the wall, and stuck his head out to look down.
call…
The sea breeze at night blew the boy's long silver-gold hair and gently swept it on his white forehead.
A pair of lavender eyes, as clear as water, looked at the battlefield where the sound of fighting could be heard in the distance under the dark night.
"Hope everything goes well."
Then he closed his eyes and prayed softly.
He is not a trouble-making naughty kid, and of course he will not escape from the window on his own initiative.
Then... he fell to death.
Viserys's bedroom is located in a high tower on the edge of the castle. There are rocks below the window. It is almost a dead end for him to jump from here.
And he wasn't planning on escaping. He just felt a little panicked when facing a war for the first time, but he didn't know who to share this panic with.
I just put on my own little equipment to give myself some psychological comfort.
...
And in the distance.
In the darkness beyond the reach of Viserys' eyes.
On the rough sea surface, the two fleets combined even had close to a hundred warships of various sizes.
A long and desolate horn sounded.
Woo——
The Qingting Island fleet with a clear flag was arranged in formation. Under the cover of countless long ships, three rowing warships with larger size and higher tonnage served as the main ships and headed towards the Dragonstone Island fleet.
The Dragonstone fleet seemed a little unprepared. It hurriedly sailed out of the port and faced the attack of Lord Redwine's fleet before even forming its formation.
However, their response was also very good.
The sea breeze howls.
Woo——
The sound of horns sounded continuously from all directions, shaking the eardrums and making people's blood boil involuntarily.
Paxter Redwyne, the former admiral of Aerys II of the Targaryen Dynasty and also the Lord of the Sea, was currently wearing a blue and white woolen coat, with the emblem of dark purple grapes on a blue background embroidered on his chest.
He stood on the largest of the three rowing warships in the Qingting Island fleet, holding the railing in front of him tightly with both hands, leaning out slightly to look at the dragon stone in front of him.
The formation of the island fleet.
This experienced general in naval battles did not actually look majestic. Instead, he was a middle-aged man with a slim build and a somewhat wretched appearance.
The shoulders are slightly drooped, and a few strands of sparse orange hair on the top of the head are struggling in the sea breeze.
In the distance, the sound of horns was also heard from the direction of Dragonstone Island, and at the same time, melodious and low bells also rang.
