Who is better, Knight Phillip Ford or Lady Brienne of Tarth?
This is indeed a good question. The fighting styles of the two are very different. Most of the battles of the One-Eyed Knight are like a madman. He fights wildly and even trades injuries for injuries to scare off his opponent.
This is a fighting method that Philip Ford summed up in battle. As long as he is more ruthless than his enemy, he can scare the opponent away, and then take advantage of the opponent's panic to seize the opportunity to win directly.
He came from a humble background in the continent of Essos, and later came to Westeros as a hedge knight. He was once employed by Lord Tywin Lannister to guard the West.
However, after the Battle of Riverrun, the Allied Forces of the Seven Kingdoms led by Duke Tywin were defeated. Duke Tywin himself took a boat and escaped into the woods in a hurry back to the West. Therefore, he surrendered to the Targaryen family after the battle.
He made great contributions during the attack on the Storm Land and was named a knight. He became a noble in one step and had his own fiefdom.
Philip's humble background prevented him from systematically learning the fighting methods of knights. His fighting methods were all summed up by licking blood from the edge of a knife again and again in order to survive.
The opponent of Knight Philip Ford, Lady Brienne from Tarth, is different from him.
Brienne of Tarth was born into the ancient and noble Tarth family. Her father was the Earl of Nightfall Hall, and later died in the decisive battle of the Green Fork between humans and the White Walkers.
Although Brienne is a female, she has been tall and strong since she was a child, even far taller than boys of the same age.
Because of her ugly appearance, Brienne lives in the ridicule of others most of the time. The best situation is just receiving pity from others.
Later, when she tried to dress herself up according to the standards of a noble lady, she would be ridiculed for her unfeminine appearance and lack of coordination in her attire, so she could only try to arm herself into a warrior according to her talents, and even
She waved her fists to scare away those who wanted to laugh at her.
And her father, Lord Selwyn Tarth, the ‘Evening Star’ of Dusk Advent Hall, originally wanted to correct his daughter.
But later, because his daughter was over six feet tall and had strong arms, he simply gave up the plan to transform his daughter into a 'noble lady', and instead let her go further and further on the road of knighthood, and even gave her back
A teacher was hired to practice swordsmanship.
Therefore, Brienne of Tarth has received serious training as a knight, and knows the real tactics of fighting, when to advance and when to retreat, attack with moderation, defense with method, and her fighting style is as steady as a mountain.
In addition, Brienne also has rich combat and command experience. She studied at the Imperial Military Academy and was an outstanding graduate of that year. She participated in several large-scale battles, took the lead, and served as a commander.
So who is better, Philip Ford or Brienne Tarth?
The brown-haired young prince didn't know this question before the battle between the two began.
But what he knows very well is that if the royal family needs to select one of these two people to serve as the Kingsguard, then Miss Brienne of Tarth will definitely be selected.
Because Brienne's origin is orthodox, she comes from the Tarth family in Dusk's Hall on Tarth Island in the Stormlands. Her ancestors have lived on this land for generations, and Brienne is also loyal to the empire and has made many meritorious deeds.
The Si family has no stain or criminal record.
Although Philip Ford Knight is very powerful in combat, his poor background still limits his development.
If the Ford family is a famous family in Westeros, then the fate of these two people is likely to be reversed again.
Although it is hard to accept, we have to admit that Viserys single-handedly built this country. He shattered the decadent old system, reshaped new rules, diluted the power of most nobles, and worked hard to bring the nobles and commoners closer.
The gap between them has promoted a large number of upstarts who came from humble backgrounds.
But after he broke away from the power center of the empire and handed over the country to his three wives, the new empire gradually headed towards its original path.
The small nobles began to run rampant in the countryside again, bullying men and women, while the big nobles also secretly overstepped their bounds, hoarding private armies and amassing wealth that had long exceeded the limits of their power.
However, although some people began to make some small moves secretly, these nobles still did not dare to be too presumptuous.
After all, the Targaryen family still has absolute military power, and the command of the imperial army is still firmly in the hands of the three queens. The morale of the soldiers is high, and their loyalty to the empire is unprecedentedly fanatical.
And the Prime Minister Willas Tyrell is not a vegetarian. He has also discovered the problem of lax policies during his administration. He once talked with Viserys all night long. In fact, although Willas was born in a noble family, he himself
He is also a person full of fantasy and romance.
Regardless of his origin and family, he was very willing to support Viserys's reforms. In fact, he did so after he came to power. He became a diligent 'tinker', constantly tinkering.
Nishi Minato worked hard to stabilize the situation in this huge country, and was even stabbed in the back by some nobles.
But in the final analysis, the Targaryen family still has seven dragons. No matter how turbulent the years are, as long as the Targaryen family still has dragons, the situation can be stable and no one dares to make trouble.
"It matters not Lord Baelish who wins."
"I like Lady Brienne more."
The young prince wearing a simple brocade robe with a dragon emblem on his chest heard the Valley Governor's question. His dark eyes turned sideways, then he shook his head slightly and spoke in a calm voice.
"oh?"
Petyr Baelish, who was wearing a black cloak and the buckle on his chest was a silver bionic bird emblem, was obviously startled when he heard this, and then he couldn't help but show a hint of admiration in his eyes.
He didn't expect that a boy in his early ten years could see the essence directly through the problem.
Sure enough, the elite education of the royal family could not produce mediocre people.
"Yes, His Highness the Prince is right."
"When I was Your Highness's age, I was still trying to pursue an elusive dream."
The Governor of the Valley sat on the chair with his legs crossed, his elbows supporting the armrests and his hands crossed. His gray hair at the temples was slightly fluttering in the wind, as if he was recalling the past, the days when he was fostered in Riverrun.
He looked down at the first battle that started with a long horn sound, and said with sincere emotion in his voice.
"And it doesn't matter who wins this battle."
"The outcome has actually been determined a long time ago."
