Chapter 209 The Calamity of Dragonstone Island

Raid, launched at night.

There are no lighthouses in this era, and everything on the sea is detected by the guards with their eyesight.

But unfortunately, there was no moonlight on the night that Earl Tas chose to attack.

More than ten years ago, the last princess of the Targaryen dynasty, Daenerys "Stormborn" Daenerys Targaryen, was born on this island.

And more than ten years later, here, the princess of another dynasty is facing the crisis of life and death again, but she doesn't know it at all.

"Quick! Quick! Go up! Seize the gate of Dragonstone Castle as soon as possible, and never let it close!"

The south side of Dragonstone Island is a good deep-water port, where all large ships dock, and complete wharf facilities have been built on the island.

And the fleet that was originally stationed here is now nailed to King's Landing, fighting for the throne for the owner of the island. Therefore, there is no one on the pier, and no one thought that someone would come to attack him.

The first ship landed steadily, Earl Tarth's army had already set foot on the pier, and overhead, the light of Dragonstone Castle was extremely conspicuous in the night sky.

No one put up a banner. If it is not recognized, then this thing is done by pirates for the time being. Although it will definitely be revealed in the future, after all, so many people are involved, it is impossible to expect everyone's mouth to be sealed.

But that's for the future. His Majesty Renly has already sat on the Iron Throne, so this matter has become unimportant.

Before Stannis left, he almost emptied the army on the island, leaving only a hundred men to defend the fortress of Dragonstone Island.

Therefore, it was not discovered by the guards until Earl Tas's army touched the gate.

Glancing at the sudden appearance of a large mass of human heads looming in the dark night, the guard immediately realized what was going on.

Just as the two wanted to warn, two sharp crossbow arrows had pierced the air from the darkness.

There was only a pop, and the arrow of fine steel pierced the throats of the two of them.

The smell of blood filled the air, and the guard fell down clutching his neck. The arrow was a fatal wound, and the bachelor shook his head when he saw it. The one who even saved the poppy milk can directly prepare the eulogy.

So, it was so easy, the final gate of the entire Dragonstone Castle was easily captured by Earl Tarth's army.

The army climbed up the long stone steps connecting the main castle and the gate, and this time, luck did not favor them.

They were discovered.

A shrill roar resounded through the night sky, and the guards of the main castle shouted the word "enemy attack" hoarsely.

All of a sudden, the whole Dragonstone Castle was in chaos, and everyone woke up from their dreams. The men took up weapons and came to the city wall, while the women hid in their rooms shivering, praying to the Seven Gods and the new Red God.

Now that it was discovered, Earl Tas' troops were no longer timid and cautious.

The leader of the team drew his long sword from his waist, pointed in the direction of Dragonstone Castle, and let out a cry full of endless blood:

"charge!"

Since the city gate has been lost, the battle has entered into a fierce hand-to-hand combat from the very beginning. The dull and strange sound of swords piercing the human body can be heard endlessly, and the screams can be heard piercingly.

More than ten years ago, this place witnessed another desperate fight. The Royal Fleet betrayed its master and launched a massive attack on this place. Soldiers wearing black-bottomed red dragon battle robes spilled blood all over the place. every corner of the fort.

And today, the crowned stag, representing the Baratheon family, also splashed its own blood on every lifelike dragon-shaped stone carving on Dragonstone Island.

Stones have no emotions, they are just witnesses, witnessing every betrayal, killing, bloodshed, and death in the world.

The bachelors at Dragonstone immediately sent the news of the attack to Stannis in King's Landing through the raven.

It's not that he doesn't know that Stannis is now at the most critical stage, but he also understands the importance of Celine Baratheon to the entire Stannis group. This is the future queen, okay?
If something happened to this young lady, none of them would survive, because this was the only weakness in Stannis' heart, after all, he didn't care about anything else.

The guard of more than a hundred people only persisted for a short while by relying on the tall walls of Dragonstone Castle. After being named by the crossbowmen in Earl Tars's army, more than ten people were forced to withdraw to the castle to continue to resist.

As soon as they withdrew, Earl Tarth's army immediately seized the inner city gate, and the follow-up army rushed into the castle and rushed towards the stone drum tower in the center, which was the core of the entire Dragonstone Island.

The battle first broke out in the hall. When the Targaryen family built Dragonstone Castle, it was designed as a huge dragon lying on the ground, and the gate was the dragon's huge mouth.

The guards pushed down the long table and took out their longbows and hand crossbows to fight back. All of a sudden, Earl Tas's army was shot and killed more than ten people one after another. .

But this kind of resistance is actually impossible to last. Their manpower is too small. When the iron canned soldiers in heavy armor rushed in carrying the rain of arrows, the defense line of the hall was declared to be lost.

The guard who was too late to escape was stabbed to death by the rushing Earl Tars army, and he refused to even give him a chance to beg for mercy.

Soldiers rushed into the kitchen, which adjoined the hall, where vegetables were still simmering on the hearth.

Of course, they would not let go of this opportunity, took all the things that could be eaten directly, and began to feast on them.

And some soldiers found several trembling cooks in the lockers. They were of different ages and appearances, but they didn't care. No one would hold them accountable for doing something at such a time.

As a result, the woman's shrill screams echoed in the kitchen, interspersed with intermittent moaning, but soon, these voices disappeared.

"Tell you to take it easy, it's all right now, die so fast, what about the brothers behind?"

"Forget it, let's search elsewhere, we can always find it again, tonight we are not some storm army, we are pirates who do all kinds of evil, it's okay."

"You're such a bastard, go away!"

The sound went away, leaving only bloody and dead corpses. They deserve to be pitied, but unfortunately, there is no one to pity them here.

Dragonstone Island originally had a temple of the Seven Gods, but as Stannis fell to the Red God, the statue of the Seven Gods in this temple was removed, and the statue of R'hllor occupied the original position of the Seven Gods.

Earl Tarth's army blocked more than 20 Stannis defenders in the church. Due to terrain and construction problems, more than [-] of them were killed or injured but failed to rush in.

Just when these ordinary soldiers were at a loss, the officer who led the team came here, took a look at the situation, and then looked at the gods enshrined in this temple, a sneer appeared on the bloody face:
"Since Stannis believes in the heresy of the Red God, well, let's use a fire and let these soldiers be sacrificed to this alien god, which is worthy of their resistance, come on!"

The found inflammables were quickly piled up everywhere in the church. After sealing the gate, the officer snatched the torch from the soldier and threw it into the ruins made of hay and wood.

As a result, the flames illuminated half of Dragonstone Island, like a lighthouse in the dark night sky, thick columns of smoke winding upwards, bringing up flying ashes.

The garden named after Aegon Targaryen was filled with corpses and flames. In the Sea Dragon Tower, the helpless bachelor was pierced through the heart by an enemy from the sea.

Before that, all the ravens were released by him, and he would never allow anyone to use the name of Dragonstone Island to pass on news.

The soldiers came to the giant stone throne where Aegon Targaryen had sat before he conquered the Seven Kingdoms. They all laughed strangely, and their dirty boot soles stepped on the black throne one by one.

This is a complete massacre, except for the Celine Baratheon that Earl Tarth wants, the entire Dragonstone Island, no chicken or dog is left!
Finally, Selwyn Tarth entered the room where Celine Baratheon was.

Here is a typical female boudoir, there are three people in the room.

A shivering maid, a dignified lady in luxurious clothes, and a little girl whose left face and neck were covered with black skin.

"Selwyn, I didn't expect it to be you. Are you not afraid of being punished for doing this?"

It was Selyse Florent, now Queen of Stannis, and mother of Celine Baratheon.

"No, ma'am, I will not be punished, because I am the winner, and the so-called punishment is just the hopeless curse of the loser for the occasional mistakes of the winner."

Selwyn Tas shrugged and came to the mother and daughter.

As for the maid, she had been dragged out long ago, and he didn't care about her fate.

"Renly sent you here. I really didn't expect him to be such a person."

Selyse Florent sighed. From the moment she saw Selwyn, she knew that she would definitely not survive.

Earl Selwyn Tars was silent. In fact, from the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to see this scene in front of him.

But he was Renly's vassal, and he had to do some things.

"Please... Madam Selyse, and Miss Celine, you guys need to get out of here."

After saying this, Earl Tas left without looking back.

He walked outside the door, and the blood of the maid of death flowed all over the floor, wet the soles of his shoes.

Bloody footprints stretched forward with no end in sight.
