Viserys considered this strategic transfer plan for a long time on the return ship, and finally tentatively decided on the starting point of the Upper Rhoyne River.
However, this place is far away from the coast of Braavos, and the fleet Viserys relies on cannot function on land. It can only rely on sailors to disembark to fight. This is undoubtedly giving up its own advantage.
Fortunately, according to Viserys' knowledge, there are no powerful forces on the Andas Plains.
At most, they are just some bandits and bandits, and then there are Andal villages native to this land.
Viserys leads thousands of well-equipped Targaryen naval forces. Even if they disembark and fight, it shouldn't be a big problem to conquer these ragtag bandits and villages.
"Of course, we are not giving up on Dragonstone Island right away."
Viserys continued.
"We can lead the people across the Narrow Sea in batches and steps to build our home in the Eastern Continent."
After all, a city cannot be built in a day, even if Viserys spends a lot of money to hire a large number of laborers, it will not be so easy.
So this is a big project that will last for many years, and Baratheon now has no navy to attack Dragonstone, which is their best chance to get through this difficult time.
When one day Baratheon has accumulated enough strength and wants to attack Dragonstone again, he will find that the island has been emptied by Viserys.
but.
Viserys just proposed a plan, which does not mean that this matter is his own dictatorship. It still needs to be discussed by the Royal Council to finally reach an optimal result.
"Do you two adults have any good opinions on the next plan?"
Viserys glanced at Prince Oberyn, who was sitting carelessly on a chair, and the old sergeant on his left, who looked serious and thoughtful.
"You might as well speak freely."
Viserys is good at listening to other people's opinions, will not be a dictator, and cannot be a dictator.
Although the young king has been sitting on the throne, the power of Dragonstone's navy is still in the hands of Fleet Commander Sir Geoffrey. Viserys has never forgotten this, and always reminds himself to keep his head.
of sobriety.
certainly.
This does not mean that Viserys is worried that the old sergeant will rebel. In fact, among the people he trusts most, apart from the master of the Red Keep, Ser Geoffrey is the only one he trusts most.
Because without these two people, he might have died long ago.
However, although the current commander of the Dragonstone Fleet is dedicated to assisting the young king, this does not mean that the old knight will let Viserys do everything he wants.
This is a very important difference.
In fact, this little old man has always placed himself in the position of a 'favourite'. He feels that he should work hard and take on more responsibilities.
Therefore, on some key issues, if there are huge differences of opinion between the young king and the 'Prime Minister', the final say will still fall into the hands of the other party.
Because the command of the fleet is in the hands of the other party, it will be extremely difficult for Viserys to take back this part of the power.
The little old man only needed to say, "Your Majesty is still young, I am doing this for your own good. You will understand when you grow up." Then he could reply to what Viserys wanted to say.
This is the real living environment Viserys is currently living in.
In Braavos, when Oberyn inexplicably asked Viserys how it felt to be called 'King' at such a young age, he was actually asking this question.
Viserys answered Oberyn's question in a clever way.
However, faced with such a dilemma, Viserys did not compete tit-for-tat with the old knight for the command of the fleet, because the old knight himself was loyal to Targaryen and had a good purpose.
But Viserys also did not completely surrender and give up the struggle. He was also working hard to improve his voice and control some of his own power.
This was also one of the reasons why he convinced himself to insist on taking the risk to Braavos.
Fortunately, the little king's bet was successful.
His mission to Braavos achieved the desired results, and he received the support and support of Braavos and Dorne.
Now Viserys not only relies on the power of the Dragonstone fleet, but also has the support of Dorne and Braavos.
Although this is also a power that he cannot control, getting rid of the dependence on a single power also indirectly improves the little king's own right to speak.
Just like the situation before us.
Prince Oberyn from Dorne sat on Viserys's right hand. Although he said nothing, Sir Geoffrey had to consider the other person's opinion.
And Viserys can find a little breathing space in the power balance difference between these three parties, which are huge to him, and gradually gain control of his own right to speak.
"His Majesty."
The gray-haired old man was silent for a long time. He first raised his head and looked at the Prince of Dorne who was sitting on the chair opposite and was picking his teeth.
Then he turned his head to look at Viserys, and then took the initiative to break the silence in the Picture Table Hall and spoke first.
"Andas is the homeland of the Andals, and you are the legitimate Andals, the Rhoynar, and the King of the First Men."
"As the king, you have the ownership and final authority over the entire territory. The Andals and their land should surrender to you, so it is legally impeccable for you to take back this land."
Ser Geoffrey investigated for Viserys and found the legality to conquer and occupy this land.
"And according to legend, this is also the birthplace of the Seven Gods."
"Seven gods once came to this world in this mountain and blessed the Andals. It is said that the Father took seven stars from the sky and made them into crowns to crown the first king of the Andals, Hugo, the King of the Hills."
"And when you return to Andas in pursuit of the holy relics, you are seeking the Seven Gods to answer your questions about how to save beggars, commoners, nobles and other living beings from the sufferings of being oppressed by usurpers."
"Your Majesty, you are the king of gods!"
The old and powerful voice of the old knight echoed in the silent Tutai Hall.
"The Seven Gods will crown you once again! You will lead his loyal followers to reintegrate the homeland of the Andals until they return to Westeros."
"Eradicate the suffering of all living beings and restore the glory of the Seven Gods from being tarnished by despicable usurpers."
"And you are the messenger who represents the will of the gods!"
...
One month later.
The sonorous and powerful voice of the old jazz still seems to have not dissipated in my ears.
beep--
Above the rough sea, the clarion call of war is desolate and melodious, making people unable to help but get their blood pumping.
Targaryen's three-headed dragon banner was flapping in the wind, and countless large ships were arranged in formation to cut through the waves.
And the continent in the distance seems to be looming.
