As the sky reached the city, when he saw the head of his second son Yaron being picked up and hung in front of the military camp, Quentin Kogel, Earl of Sandstone City, couldn't bear it anymore, and he smashed the wine glass in his hand.
, and then suddenly stood up.
"my son!"
Quentin Kogel wanted to avenge his son, and beside his father, Gulian Kogel, the heir of Sandstone City, also stood up pressing the hilt of his sword with a face filled with sadness and anger.
"I want to avenge my brother!"
"I'm going to cut off Jon Connington's head and send it to King's Landing!"
"I want to tell Viserys myself! We Dornishmen are not that easy to bully!"
Seeing the father and son of the Kogel family in Sandstone City, they were furious. The other Dornish nobles in the main hall of Tianji City quickly stood up and spoke to persuade them.
"Lord Quentin!"
"Lord Quentin!"
"Sir Gurian!"
"Calm down your anger temporarily. We can avenge Yalon, but we cannot kill Jon Connington."
Count Harman Uler of Hellgate Castle, who was known as the 'Madman', became the calmest person at this moment. He winked at his brother Urik and asked him to also stop the eldest son Gu of Sandstone City.
Li An.
When everyone stood up and grabbed Kogel and his son, Harman Uler continued to speak.
"There's really no way out if we kill Jon Connington."
"The Martell family will not let us go either."
Harman Uler spoke. His two words made the father and son in Shashi City calm down instantly, and their minds that had just been overwhelmed by anger suddenly became much clearer.
Jon Connington cannot die, otherwise the Iron Throne and any room for maneuver they had before will be gone.
At that time, the Martell family may not choose to stand on their side, and if the Martell family of Prince Dorne also sides with the Iron Throne, then their rebellion this time will undoubtedly fail, and their heads are destined to hang in King's Landing.
On top of the city.
Although his son was killed and Quentin was furious, he still didn't want to die.
Quentin Kogel calmed down, but his eldest son Gurian was still a little aggrieved.
"If the Martell family is on the enemy's side, then he is not my prince!"
As soon as Gulian Kogel's words came out, the expressions of all the Dornish nobles present changed.
The Martell family has a deep control over Dorne. Although Prince Doran has not been out of the Palace of Flowing Waters for decades, his remaining power is still there.
It only declined slightly after the deaths of Prince Lewin Martell and Princess Elia Martell of the Kingsguard. People somewhat questioned Prince Doran's courage. Why did he not dare to avenge his uncle and sister?
But still no one dared to openly disobey the Martell family. However, they did not expect to be exposed by Gulian Kogel in public, which caused some uncertainty on the faces of the Dornish nobles present.
"Be careful!"
"The Martells are our princes!"
After Gulian Kogel's words fell, the crowd fell into silence. Then Gulian was met with an angry rebuke from his father, and the heir of Sandstone City also knew that he had said the wrong thing. His face turned red and white, and the corners of his mouth were slightly swollen.
No, after all, I didn’t dare to open my mouth and say anything.
"Right now we still have to avenge Yalon's nephew."
There was silence in the room, and finally the owner of this place, the gray-haired old Franklin Fowler, Earl of Tianji City, spoke in a hoarse voice.
"After all, Jon Connington went too far and killed the envoy we sent."
"If we don't make a strong response, the morale of the soldiers will also be hit."
Franklin Fowler felt that the whole thing was getting out of control.
He originally just wanted to survive. This was his only appeal after impulsively killing someone.
He realized his mistake. He should not have personally led his troops to attack the Cen Shutan. Instead, as he told Yalong, he put the responsibility on his soldiers and did not know anything about it.
And he is willing to pay the price for his mistakes. Apart from not giving up his own head and not being sent to the border to guard the Great Wall, he is willing to do everything else.
Unfortunately, he made a series of arrangements in order to survive and be free, but after a struggle, he found that things were getting more and more out of control.
Originally, he thought that after he had the support of other Dornish nobles, Jon Connington would choose to negotiate with him, and he was relieved for this.
But I didn't expect that Jon Clinton would be so selfless, claiming that there was no negotiation with the traitors, and directly pushed the envoy out to kill him. This made the situation that had some improvement once again plunged into a deadlock.
"Is there only one way to reach darkness?"
"Complete rebellion?"
However, in the main hall of Tianji City, the Dornish nobles were noisy, claiming to avenge Aaron Kogel, and the cunning old falcon was thinking wildly.
Woo
Woo
Woo
Suddenly, the loud sound of trumpets sounded from the top of the city of Cangtian City. The sound shook people's blood vessels and made people's blood boil. It spread far and wide.
"Um?"
"what happened?"
"How dare Jon Connington send troops to attack the city?"
In the main hall of Tianji City, the Dornish nobles were in an uproar.
A trumpet sound is a sign of enemy attack, but who is their enemy? Is Jon Connington crazy? Dare to attack Tianji City with such a small number of people?
You must know that including the Hellgate Castle family, the Sandstone City family, etc., the number of troops in Tianji City is no less than the number of soldiers led by Jon Clinton, and is even more than the enemy.
However, just as they were wondering, a long and desolate dragon roar suddenly came from above their heads.
"Hoo"
This roar was like the roar of an ancient beast that made people tremble all over. As soon as it opened its mouth, it suppressed all the trumpet sounds at the top of Tianzhi City, making them eclipsed.
"What is this sound?"
In the castle hall, the Dornish nobles raised their heads and looked up, but did not react at the first moment.
"dragon"
Then Gulian Kogel, who had just shouted the most ferociously that he wanted to avenge his brother, seemed to be the first to react, and he murmured slightly.
"Is it a dragon?"
Uncertainly, he turned his head and looked at everyone around him, including his father, and then saw everyone's expressions changing drastically.
"dragon!"
"It's a dragon!"
"Run away!"
However, it was already too late.
Balerion, the black dragon that blocked the sky, vibrated his wings and dived down from the sky towards the ground, roaring.
The Fowler family soldiers on the wall of Tianji City raised their bows and shot, but they seemed to be scratching an itch.
bang bang bang
The bow and arrow hit the dragon's increasingly thick and rough scales and bounced directly back to the ground.
Balerion then opened the abyss's maw and aimed at the castle below.
A flash of indigo light emerged from the center of the throat.
