No one paid attention to the compliments given to His Majesty the King by two ordinary citizens in the city.
After the Targaryen army entered the city, Jon Connington greeted him at the door and soon discovered that Viserys did not seem to follow them into the city.
He felt a little nervous, but then he saw a green dragon that was much smaller than Balerion, but still huge compared to a human, flying back.
Rego's huge shadow shrouded the ground. Its scales were an ancient bronze color, like the moss in the deep forest at dusk. These scales reflected light like jade.
Its horns, wings, and crest are golden, while its teeth and claws are black. Its bronze eyes are brighter than the polished shield, gleaming with its own heat.
"Ho--"
Rego let out a melodious roar that spread far away, flying directly to the Nine Towers Palace by the sea in the distance.
"This is..."
And people all over Pentos also heard the roar of the dragon, and raised their heads to look at the sky. Only then did they realize that the returning dragon was not the huge black dragon.
"This...is not His Majesty's mount."
"Which princess is this?"
The man with long gray-red hair stood at the gate of the city, took a few steps forward to block the dazzling sunlight with his hands, and looked up at the giant dragon that was gradually receding.
I was slightly shocked inside.
Just now when Jon was far away from the city, he saw the figure of a giant dragon in the sky.
He thought it was Viserys who had returned from victory, but he didn't expect that the dragon was not Balerion.
He knew that among the three dragons of the Targaryen family, in addition to the Balerion that Viserys rode, there were two dragons belonging to the two princesses respectively.
One is the 'Mother of Dragons' who hatched the dragon herself, His Majesty the King's sister, Princess Daenerys Targaryen.
The other one is Her Highness Princess Rhaenys Targaryen, the eldest daughter of Prince Rhaegar of the former dynasty.
Because of age and other complicated considerations, Viserys even ignored seniority and directly made Rhaenys the eldest princess of the new dynasty.
When Viserys made this decision, no one jumped out to refute it.
This also indirectly illustrates His Majesty the King's strong position within the new dynasty.
If Viserys was still sitting on the Iron Throne in Westeros, and he dared to make such a decision, I am afraid that it would immediately arouse opposition from a large number of conservatives.
The old academics of Old Town Academy, the archbishop of Starry Cathedral, the archbishop below, and many others.
He immediately jumped out impatiently and accused His Majesty of the King of ignoring the order of seniority and age.
Because as a tradition of Westeros, if it is touched easily, it will affect the interests of many people.
They will all become obstacles to Viserys's gradual transformation.
Casting stones to ask for directions.
But here, in Andalus, is the birthplace of a new dynasty.
After Viserys made this decision, no one dared to oppose it. His position was very strong, and it was no longer the time when he was in power when he was young.
Later, after canonizing Rhaenys, Viserys started the road of reform in a bold way.
Founding kings often have such strong characteristics.
And now the entire Targaryen world is actually tied to him alone.
This is why his enemies all want to kill Viserys, and they will use any despicable means.
Because neither assassinating Rhaenys nor Daenerys can shake the foundation of this new dynasty.
Although Viserys attaches great importance to his two 'sisters', in the final analysis, he himself is the core.
...
The Targaryen army's entry into the city caused a sensation, and Rhaenys' parachute ride into the city on Rhaegal caused even more crowds to desert the city.
Viserys, who did not follow the army back to the city, is naturally not missing. He is now flying above the clouds on Balerion's back.
"It's well hidden."
Viserys looked at the endless Dothraki below, trying to identify which one among them was their Khal.
However, the opponent's Khal was very shrewd and fully learned the painful lessons from Khal Zeke and Khal Moloch.
They hid in the crowd like water droplets merged into the sea, inconspicuous, and Viserys could not find any trace of each other.
Now Viserys is riding a dragon to follow the Dothraki's escape route, fearing that the other party will attack them in the east or west.
Although he had been mentally prepared in advance, the sudden retreat of the Dothraki still caught Viserys off guard.
After all, 50,000 Dothraki were still a powerful force. He had already prepared for a battle, but he did not expect that the other party would slip away without saying a word.
Viserys then asked Oberyn and Rhaenys to lead the legion to Pentos to stabilize the situation.
By the way, we took this opportunity to directly station the Targaryen troops in the city to replace the previously ineffective garrison.
And he himself continued to chase the Dothraki along the retreating trail, driving them away from the area near Pentos.
Otherwise, the Dothraki would not be able to stand it if they took advantage of their mobility to attack in the east or in the west with a single attack.
After all, most of Targaryen's troops are infantry, and they are well-equipped and wear heavy armor. Two feet cannot run as fast as four feet, and the opponent comes and goes without a trace.
There are only two people in the Targaryen army who can do this job, one is Viserys and the other is Rhaenys.
Viserys was worried about Rhaenys riding a dragon alone to pursue the enemy.
He was even afraid that the girl would get lost in the sky. It would be better if there were troops on the ground following her.
If there were no coordinate objects, God knows where this silly girl would fly with the Dothraki and whether she would be able to find her way back.
Therefore, this job fell to Viserys alone. Although the war was over, he still rode the dragon alone and continued to pursue the Dothraki.
From time to time, it would swoop down and spit out two puffs of dragon flame, driving the Dothraki to continue running forward.
Phew~
The huge shadow of the dragon shrouded the ground. Balerion stretched his neck, spread his wings and let out a roar.
And below is the magnificent sound of thousands of horses galloping.
Rumble——
"Hey!"
From time to time there were shouts in Dothraki.
The dragon's shadow shrouded all the Dothraki who were shrouded in the dragon's shadow. They were driving their horses desperately, panicking in their hearts, for fear that a puff of dragon flame would fall from their heads.
Viserys rode a dragon and chased fifty thousand Dothraki, but there was nothing they could do.
Bows and arrows cannot break through the dragon's scales.
The giant crossbow that could break through the dragon's defense had already been thrown to Pentos, because it was inconvenient to escape with such a siege weapon.
