Chapter 440 Siege of King's Landing

After the Battle of Riverrun, Viserys did not continue to attack the Westerlands and the Vale as originally planned, but instead sent his army straight to King's Landing.

In the distant capital of the Seven Kingdoms, the people in King's Landing are in panic at the moment. The city gates are closed tightly. The number of soldiers on the city walls has even increased several times. The streets and alleys are full of figures patrolling in golden robes. Civilian supplies are under control and are in short supply.

, the black market is rampant and many local gangsters are more arrogant than before.

Why has King's Landing become such a tense place?

There is no other reason. Now the golden regiment holding high the banner of "Fire Dragon Above, Gold Below" has surrounded King's Landing.

And outside the city, there were not only the soldiers of the Golden Company, but also the prestigious army of the Unsullied.

The Targaryen family's navy also blocked the entire Blackwater Bay under the command of Lord Geoffrey Bracken. Densely packed warships of various sizes covered the entire sea surface, surrounding King's Landing.

A week ago, Rhaenys Targaryen, the eldest princess of the new dynasty, received a battle report from the Twins on Dragonstone Island. The human coalition defeated the White Walkers, and then internal strife broke out. Viserys led his army to defeat the Seven White Walkers.

The Allied Forces are leading the Dothraki south towards Riverrun.

After receiving this information, Rhaenys decisively decided to cooperate with her 'brother' to take the initiative and fight in both directions, one south and one north, according to the original plan. She personally led the 'Southern Army' to attack the enemy's base camp, King's Landing.

This is the biggest test for Rhaenys.

Because King's Landing is the largest and most prosperous city in the Seven Kingdoms, it has a very terrifying population in this era, not to mention the influx of countless people from the North and the Riverlands who have fled.

Just eating, drinking and having sex every day consumes countless resources. If it is in a state of war, it will easily be converted into tens of thousands of soldiers.

Moreover, King's Landing also has towering city walls, which are covered with trebuchets, giant crossbows and other terrifying war weapons.

These were prepared to fight against the White Walkers. The Seven Kingdoms mobilized their own productivity, united all the craftsmen, and worked overtime to create them.

Now, before it can be transported to the front line, the war between humans and ghosts is over, and the next step is the war between humans and humans.

Rhaenys Targaryen, the eldest princess of the new dynasty, personally led an army to aggressively surround King's Landing by sea, land and air. Naturally, the city of King's Landing was highly tense.

The Queen's Hand, Jon Arryn, is dead and Prince Joffrey Baratheon is still young, so Queen Regent Cersei Lannister takes full control of the government.

Little did they know that King Robert had been defeated once again and captured alive.

In a study in Maegor's Tower in the Red Keep, Arys Oakheart, one of the Kingsguard left behind by Robert in King's Landing, hurried in.

"Your Majesty the Queen."

The Kingsguard wearing white armor opened the door and walked in, then spoke in a quick voice.

However, he came too quickly and did not knock on the door, so he accidentally saw something he shouldn't have seen. Alex Oakheart's cheeks were slightly embarrassed, he took a step back and lowered his head.

"Sir James."

In the study of Maegor's Tower, Her Majesty the Queen and her brother, who is the Kingsguard, are alone in a room. It seems that their actions are not very elegant and easy-going.

The blond knight's face was not very pretty, and he seemed slightly annoyed by his sworn brother's reckless actions, but he didn't say much.

The beautiful queen, on the other hand, didn't care about her naked breasts. She tied her clothes calmly, sat up from the table, then stepped on the ground with her bare feet, slightly raised her delicate chin and asked.

"Sir Alex, what happened?"

Since the Usurper's War, there have been many Kingsguard positions that need to be filled, and King Robert is also troubled by this matter.

Queen Cersei Lannister promoted five people at once based on a certain political agreement. Therefore, this generation of Kingsguard is regarded by many as the worst generation of Kingsguard, such as Merlin Tran, etc.

People, they are not qualified to wear white robes.

Arys Oakheart was also one of the Kingsguard promoted by Queen Cersei, so he turned a blind eye to what had just happened.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

When the knight in white robe heard the queen's words, he pressed the hilt of his sword and said respectfully.

"Just now, the Commander-in-Chief of the City Guard, Lord Janos Sterling, received news that they suspected that they had captured a Targaryen spy at the Riverside Gate. He smuggled over from Fishermen's Square."

"It seems"

At this point, Alex Oakheart was hesitant to speak and looked at the two of them. When Jaime Lannister heard him stumbling like this, he frowned slightly and said directly.

"What does it seem like? Alex, tell me what you have to say."

The white-robed knight glanced at James and then at the queen, then gritted his teeth and then spoke.

"It seems to be your dead brother, Lord Tyrion Lannister."

"What?"

After hearing Brother Oath's words, the blond knight was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly stood up from the chair.

He looked at the other person with bright eyes, then strode forward and looked into the other person's eyes, and asked seriously again.

"Alex, what did you say?"

"Is it Tyrion?"

After receiving a positive nod from the other party, James couldn't bear it anymore and pushed the other party away.

Tread

He didn't even wear armor, just casual clothes. He walked hurriedly towards the door. At the same time, he called the attendants in the Red Castle to prepare their horses. He personally wanted to rush to the golden robe prison to visit his brother.

News of Tyrion's death had spread throughout the Seven Kingdoms a long time ago, and Jaime still felt uncomfortable for a long time when he received the news.

He even used his own sword to dig out a cenotaph for his brother in the godswood of the Red Keep to commemorate Tyrion.

But he didn't expect to suddenly hear the news that Tyrion was still alive when the army was overwhelming and the city was besieged. This was the only bit of luck among all the misfortunes.

The relationship between the brothers Jaime and Tyrion is very good. However, when Jaime arrived in the dungeon, he discovered that Tyrion was not being imprisoned, but was actually living very comfortably.

The Commander-in-Chief of the City Guard, Janos Sterling, was accompanying him. Tyrion crossed his legs and shook a red wine glass in his hand. He seemed to have thought that his brother would definitely come, and was waiting here quietly.

bang

The door was roughly pushed open by the blond knight, and James immediately saw Tyrion sitting on the chair.

Tyrion also saw him, and then James strode over, and the two brothers hugged each other tightly.

"Tyrion."

"It's good that you're still alive."

"Of course, James, I live better than anyone else."

After the touching scene of the brothers meeting, Jaime asked Tyrion what happened.

Why did my father say he was dead?

And why did a ‘dead person’ suddenly escape from death?

Also, what is Tyrion’s identity now, and why did Arys say he had caught a Targaryen spy?

James asked many questions in one breath, and Tyrion sat back down, took a sip of wine, waved his hands, and then started talking.
