Chapter 219 Breaking the Ice (6200 Chapters)

"Tyrion!"

James, with a sad face on his ugly face, heard the voice behind him, managed his expression well and turned to call his brother.

"James, what's the matter with your face?"

Looking at James who turned around, the bright smile on Tyrion's face disappeared immediately, and he immediately asked with concern.

"It's nothing, the people who caused these scars are all dead. Well, it seems that they are not completely dead!"

Upon hearing this, James immediately bent over to pick up the red mask from the ground and put it on again, then replied in a relaxed tone.

"Hey, James, you don't have a pretty face like me now. But it's okay, all the girls see is our last name and the golden dragon!"

Knowing that his brother didn't want him to worry, Tyrion squeezed a smile out of his stiff face and replied.

Hearing Tyrion's words, James strode forward, opened his hands to give Tyrion a hug, and whispered in his mouth: "Brother, welcome back safely!"

"Thank you!"

Looking at her two younger brothers in front of her, Cersei twitched her lips, turned around and walked behind her.

Hearing the sound of leaving footsteps behind him, James' eyes showed a gloomy look.He let go of Tyrion, whom he thought was in his arms, and said, "Come on! I'll take you to my father. Just in time to hear your story in the Vale!"

"Okay, when you are free, I want to hear your story too!"

Tyrion glanced at Cersei, who had gone far away, and nodded in reply.

So, the two brothers chatted about the recent trifles and headed towards the Prime Minister's Tower where Tai Wen was.

Coming to the meeting hall of the Prime Minister's Tower, Tywin was very diligently handling political affairs.However, when he saw James and Tyrion coming hand in hand, he put down the quill in his hand.

"Father!"

The two of them saluted Tai Wen first, and then James tilted his head to signal, Tyrion took a step forward,
He continued to speak: "This time I brought back a thousand cavalry from the Frey family, three thousand brave mountain clan warriors, and thousands of captives including Jon Royce and Roderick Cassel."

"Why do you want to come back? I remember that the mission given to you was to win over Lady Lysa, so as to control the valley, right?"

After hearing Tyrion's report, Tywin didn't take up his topic, but questioned him.

"Father, the civil strife in the valley, except for the bronze king, the king of Seagull Town, and the king of Five Fingers Peninsula are all Littlefinger's pawns.

At the beginning, he urged Mrs. Lysa to let me lead the troops to Iron Oak City, but on the way I found something was wrong.Lead troops in advance to set up an ambush to defeat the king of Seagull Town.

Unexpectedly, the ambitious King of the Five Fingers Peninsula began to break away from control and wiped out the fleeing King of Seagull Town.In the end, he was destroyed by Stannis' army.

These were discovered through various intelligence I collected later, so I told Mrs. Lysa about them in private.

As a result, Lady Lysa died that night in her room, with the lion's head button from my dress by my side.

so……"

Seeing that Tywin questioned him without caring about himself at all, Tyrion's expression froze slightly, but he still answered his question honestly.

"The information you mentioned is very likely that Littlefinger let you know on purpose, otherwise, how could you have prepared your button in advance to frame him.

Hmph, I wanted you to control the valley, but you have been played by Littlefinger in the palm of your hand! "

After listening to Tyrion's report, Tywin let out a cold snort, and said to Tyrion in a very disappointed tone.

"Father, Tyrion didn't gain anything in the valley, at least he brought back [-] soldiers and more important prisoners for you!"

As soon as Tywin's words fell, James on the side immediately stepped forward to stand with Tyrion, and changed the subject.

"Well, we do need all the available forces now. But what about the prisoners?"

Hearing what James said, Tywin nodded in agreement with him.Then continue to ask Tyrion.

"Jon and Rodrik were robbed by me before I left the Eagle's Nest. According to my understanding, the relationship between the bronze king and his father 'Bronze Jon' is extremely deep.

Before Lady Lysa died, he had sent a letter to Eyrie City, saying that as long as his father could be released, he would give up all the castles he occupied and return to Runestone City.

It's a pity that Madam Lysa flatly refused on the grounds that the rebels must die.

Therefore, I think that if we control him, it will at least be an important bargaining chip in negotiating with the Bronze King.

And Sir Rodrik taught Robb Stark since he was a child, and he is also of great value to this emotional King of the North.

As for the other captives, I caught some deserters who slaughtered and looted on the way to the south this time. They called themselves the Uprising Without Banners.

Father, the number of these rebels without banners is astonishing. They can be seen everywhere in the valley, the river land, and the king's land.They killed a lot of innocent civilians, and many villages and towns are in ruins. I think it should be taken seriously! "

Tyrion glanced at James beside him, and said to Tywin in a flat tone.

"Don't worry about the Bannerless Rebels for the time being, they still have value. Wait until Robb Stark is dealt with.

As long as we can kill the wolves that invade the territory, our flock will reproduce by itself! "

Tywin waved his hand directly after hearing the words, and signaled that they don't have to deal with the matters of the Bannerless Rebels.

Tyrion frowned when he heard this, and was about to continue persuading his father.

But James, who was always watching his words, said first, "By the way, father. I was chatting with Tyrion just now, and he said that there might be a spellcaster next to the Bronze King."

"Spellcaster? Tyrion, tell me in detail!"

"Yes, in the previous battles with the Bronze King's army, the commander of the Valley Cavalry army often died of suffocation for no reason.

Until later, some soldiers discovered that every time a commander died, the Bronze King was accompanied by a mysterious figure wearing a white mask and black robe.

Therefore, Littlefinger was still in command at the front line at first, but then he was so frightened that he dared not even go out of the Eagle's Nest City! "

Seeing that Tywin asked himself when he heard what James said, Tyrion could only change the subject and answer.

"Bronze King, Spellcaster, Bronze Jon?  …"

After listening to Tyrion's narration, Tywin murmured to himself thinking about something.

"Father, if there is nothing else, then let's go first!"

Seeing his father lost in thought, James said to him and was about to pull Tyrion away.

"Jaime, you are no longer the Kingsguard. I will arrange a marriage for you later.

Before that, I don't care how you indulge yourself.You can learn from Tyrion in this regard. "

Just when the two brothers were about to turn around and leave, Tywin suddenly said something like this.

"Father, I don't..."

"Father, we are leaving first!"

Hearing what Tywin said, James subconsciously wanted to refuse.But Tyrion stopped him by exiting first this time, and then pulled him out of the meeting hall.

boom!
"Why won't Tyrion let me finish?"

As soon as the door of the meeting hall closed, James couldn't help saying to Tyrion.

"It doesn't make sense for you to go on, because this thing is very wrong!
My father has always considered my indulgences to have tarnished the honor of House Lannister.Now let you learn from me..."

Tyrion shook his head when he heard this, and then opened his mouth and James replied.

"It's really not right, so what did you think?"

"I don't know anything about what happened in King's Landing City recently. What can I think of? Let's go! Accompany me to a place where I can collect intelligence."

"where?"

"Hey, of course it's the Silk Street where it's easiest to gather information! I haven't been back to King's Landing for so long, I don't know if there are any new girls from Shataya."

……

The Reach, Highgarden.

It's been 21 days since Robb and Bloodwind were encased in giant ice sculptures!
The gray blight epidemic in Highgarden has been completely brought under control due to the strict implementation of the epidemic prevention measures set by Robb.For almost three days, no new infections were found.

In the end, according to Clay's rough calculations, the gray blight epidemic caused the death of nearly [-] refugees in total.

To be honest, this data is much better than the epidemic that killed 10,000+ civilians in Old Town decades ago.

And the giant ice sculpture, which is ten meters high and does not melt in the sun, has basically been seen by all the refugees.

Most of the refugees gradually believed the public opinion created by Clay's intelligence personnel, and they all thought that Robb was born from the god in charge of ice.

Over time, a small number of refugees have begun to routinely pay homage to the giant ice sculpture that never seems to melt.

The nobles of Highgarden were different from them.In the first few days, many high court nobles came to wait patiently in front of the giant ice sculpture every day.But the further you go to the back, the fewer nobles come.

At this moment, only Margaery and Clay were sitting there quietly in front of the giant ice sculpture, silently waiting for something.

Clay didn't know if Margaery had really fallen in love with Her Majesty Robb.Anyway, during these 21 days, except for going back to rest near the north city wall at night, she spent all the rest of the time here.

As for the northern nobles, only Clay is left, because Theon and Earl Rickard are already making preparations to evacuate High Court.

21 days without eating or drinking in a giant ice sculpture.Unless Robb is really born of a god, then...

blah blah blah!
When it was close to noon that day, the Duke of Mace led a large group of nobles from the Reach towards the giant ice sculpture.

"Master Mace!"

"Father!"

As soon as Duke Mace walked in front of him, Margaery and Clay immediately stood up and saluted.

"Well, Margaery, how long has it been since you saw your grandma? She misses you, go back and see her early today!"

The Duke of Mace nodded in agreement with a serious expression on his face, and immediately started talking to Margaery.

"I'll go back and see Granny! Well, when Robb comes out!"

Margaery stared at the Duke of Metz with eyes with dark circles, and replied firmly.

"You still have to wait? It's been more than 20 days!"

When Duke Metz heard Margaery's words, he immediately frowned and replied to her.Then he turned to Clay and asked,
"Master Clay, why don't you let me try to forcefully destroy this ice sculpture and rescue His Majesty Robb?"

"It's no use, Father. Lord Clay has tried everything the other day.

This ice sculpture cannot be burned, hammered or chiseled! "

Margaery shook her head when she heard the words, and asked Duke Metz not to waste his efforts.

"Master Mace, may I ask, did you come here today just to try to destroy this ice sculpture?"

Clay, who had been silent all this time, interjected very politely at this time.

"Ahem, it's like this, Lord Clay. It has been more than 20 days since His Majesty Robb was trapped in the ice sculpture. During the previous meeting, all the nobles expressed that they would donate food to those refugees.

But until now, not a bushel of grain and grass has been delivered to Highgarden.

The tens of thousands of troops stationed in Highgarden and the nearly 30 refugees have been supported by the food of our Tyrell family these days.

Moreover, His Majesty had personally made the decision to lead the army to attack the rebel castles in the Reach, but it has not been moved until now.

You said, this person can't just eat and not work, right? "

Hearing Clay's question, Earl Mace cleared his throat first, and then explained his purpose of coming today in one breath.

"Master Mace is right! It's not a solution to be exhausted like this. We have recently started to prepare for the battle!"

Clay did not refute when he heard the words, but replied with a very correct attitude.

"Hey, you are still sensible, this is the best! When the time comes, I will lead the army to fight in person. You just need to follow my command!"

Upon hearing this, the Duke of Mace squinted at the very sensible Clay, and said in an unquestionable tone.

"Of course, hey, I don't seem to have seen Prince Oberyn and Earl Randyll. Do these two lords know about the dispatch of troops this time?"

Clay nodded in agreement, then turned his head to look at the nobles following Duke Metz, and asked inadvertently.

"Uh, I discussed it with them before. Don't worry, I'll inform them later..."

Click!

Just as the Duke of Metz was speaking, a clear and crisp ice crystal shattered sounded suddenly.Clay and Margaery immediately turned to look at the giant ice sculpture with surprise on their faces.

I saw that a huge crack spread rapidly from the top of the ice sculpture down to the bottom of the ice sculpture.

Click, click!
Accompanied by continuous cracking sounds, this giant ice sculpture was covered with countless large and small cracks in an instant.

Ouch!
With the sound of an impact from the inside out, the giant ice sculpture suddenly turned into countless tiny ice crystals and floated in the air.Under the dazzling sunlight at noon, these countless tiny ice crystals suddenly turned into a colorful halo.

Tap, tap!
In this incomparably beautiful halo, one person and one wolf seemed to be radiating brilliant light, walking towards them slowly.

"I seem to... hear you guys talking about sending troops?"

The Duke of Mace, who was so dazzled by the brilliant light in front of him, had to cover his eyes with the back of his right hand, after hearing this familiar voice, his serious and majestic expression just now began to change immediately.

After putting on the familiar flattering smile on his face, he replied to the figure in the brilliant halo: "Oh, that's great, Your Majesty, you finally came out of this ice sculpture!!!
Yep!I was talking to Lord Clay just now about sending troops.

Although all of us are very worried about you, I don't think we can just waste it like this, so I am going to take the soldiers of the Tyrell family to attack King's Landing City and take the Iron Throne back to you! "

The tiny ice crystals all around finally dissipated in the air, and the brilliant light source disappeared immediately.The Duke of Mace put down his right hand, which was covered by himself, and finally saw the appearance of Robb and Bloodwind clearly.

The first thing that caught Earl Mace's eyes was Robb's reddish-brown and white hair.Then there are his sharp, cold, bright yellow eyes that seem to be full of bestiality.

Yes, the ice crystal eyes produced by Robb's [connection] with the blood wind before have now become the same yellow animal eyes as the blood wind.

The shape of Blood Wind beside Robb has not changed at all, but the color of its fur has also changed to a new look of gray and white.

The Duke of Mace inadvertently glanced at Blood Wind, and saw a very humane joking look in its eyes.

A hand stretched from the side to Duke Mace's shoulder, making him shiver with fright.

At the same time, Robb's voice rang in his ears: "Master Mace, you really think about me. Since you want to take down King's Landing City for me, then this time, the commander of the vanguard force must be you!"

"Gulu, yes, yes, Your Majesty!"

Feeling a strong sense of oppression, the Duke of Mace swallowed nervously, and immediately nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice in agreement.

In fact, it was not only the Duke of Mace who felt this sense of oppression, when Robb was talking to him.Everyone present did not dare to speak or move, and even lowered their breathing.

"Very well, then it's decided!"

Hearing this, Robb withdrew his hand on Duke Mace's shoulder, then turned to Clay and asked,
"Clay, how's the gray blight going today?"

"Your Majesty, 21 days have passed since the day you were wrapped in the ice sculpture. The gray blight epidemic has been completely brought under control, and no infected person has been found for almost three days!"

Hearing Robb's question, Kleiner replied with a smile on his face that still had a joyful expression.

"Has it been this long? I feel like I just fell asleep. Hehe!"

With a smile on Robb's face, the strong sense of oppression at the scene disappeared immediately.Everyone suddenly felt relieved.

"Your Majesty, Miss Margaret has been staying here every day for the past 21 days."

Hearing what Clay said, Robb walked up to Margaery, held her face with his hands and said,
"Margaery, I feel your heart!"

"Ok!"

Hearing what Robb said, Margaery nodded shyly in agreement.

The Duke of Mace, who was on the side, saw this scene, and immediately rejoiced in his heart for his daughter's persistence during this time.

Goooo!

His stomach growled loudly as Robb and Margaery were talking to each other.

"Okay, Margaery, prepare food for me first. I'm hungry!"

Robb immediately let go of his hands, and said to Margaery.

"Well! I'll do it for you myself now."

Margaery agreed, and walked briskly towards the north city wall.

Robb took a deep breath first, then turned his head and looked around, and whispered:

"Huh, wait until I'm full first, and then come to get acquainted with this different world!"

As Robb came out of the giant ice sculpture safe and sound, the tense atmosphere that had permeated the various forces in Highgarden disappeared without a trace.

Everyone, including Robb, is like a normal person, returning to the sweet period when all parties got along harmoniously.

The gray blight epidemic in Highgarden has ended, and under Robb's strong arrangement, the work of transferring refugees to reclaim terraced fields has officially started.

After that, Robb used the Duke of Metz's serious protest as an excuse to let the nobles who had promised to donate food but had not moved voluntarily double their food donations.

After these grains are assembled, the nearly 30 refugees can basically pass through the early reclamation and planting period smoothly.As for the future, Robb felt that there should be no major problems.

Having been trapped in the giant ice sculpture for so long, Robb felt that the progress of the current attack had been seriously delayed.

Therefore, he told Vilas the details of how to reclaim the terraced fields, and let him take charge of this work.And he is ready to start acting according to the previously determined tactical plan.

In the next few days, the refugees in Gaoting began to move towards Jinshu City one after another.

And the Duke of Mace, who took the soldiers of the Tyrell family as the vanguard, after obtaining Robb's consent.Using the offensive of money and food, nearly [-] young and strong recruits were recruited from the remaining refugees.

His idea is simple and straightforward, if Robb lets him be cannon fodder.He let these [-] recruits serve as cannon fodder.

In this way, the [-] troops stationed in High Court are officially ready, and the final war to determine the ownership of the seven countries is about to begin.

……

On the rough and narrow sea, the Fury, flying the flag of the Flame Stag, and dozens of warships are riding the wind and waves.

On the deck of Fury, Stannis, Melisandre, Davos, Roland and others were all present.

"I have already decided on the next tactical plan, but now I have received this letter. Do you think I should go?"

Looking to the north of the Narrow Sea, Stannis tightly clutched the letter in his hand, and asked the three Davos behind him uncertainly.

"Your Majesty, the Iron Bank has never traded at a loss. Our borrowing process this time is really too easy. Now, I suddenly received this letter, and I think there is a very big problem in it.

I think we should proceed according to the original tactical plan! "

Hearing this, Davos was the first to step forward and express his opinion.

"Your Majesty, I think the content of the letter is of great importance. The strength of the two sides is very different. If they really fall. Even if we proceed according to the original tactical plan, the final result will not be changed.

So, I think we should go! "

After Davos spoke, Roland immediately stepped forward to express his opinion.But this time his opinion was completely different from that of Davos.

"And you, Melisandre? Do you think I should go?"

Stannis turned his head to stare at Melisandre who had been silent, and asked actively.

Upon hearing this, Melisandre smiled on her charming face, and then softly replied: "Your Majesty, haven't you already made a decision in your heart?

I have already seen your figure in this war in the flames, and I believe you can also feel the guidance of the Lord of Light! "

After Melisandre finished speaking, she guided Stannis to a brazier on the Wrath, and made him stare at the brazier.

As the flames in the brazier danced irregularly, Stannis seemed to see something in his eyes.After regaining his senses, Stannis said directly, "Change the direction of sailing!"

After giving the order, he looked past Melisandre, Davos, and Roland and looked behind them.

I saw that countless soldiers and horses were neatly lined up on the rear deck of the Fury and the decks of dozens of other warships.
