Game of Thrones: Overlord of the Deep Sea

Chapter 226
"Don't you understand?" Wallis chuckled, "Now that I'm your niece, you can't understand?"

"It was you who took the initiative to send Myrcella for marriage, and if Myrcella becomes his woman, it will do no harm to you."

Tyrion fell silent. Varys was indeed right, but he was still a little uncomfortable. He married Myrcella to Dorne for the sake of his family.

Now that Myrcella had been snatched away, this made him feel a little guilty, as if he had sold Myrcella for his own personal benefit.

Seeing this, Varys comforted him: "Don't feel too guilty. It's not your problem that Myrcella was caught by Jack. No one expected it to be such a coincidence."

"It's useless to say anything now. All you have to do is become Jack's right-hand man. Daenerys has a dragon. That short-haired woman is the legal heir of the Iron Islands. If Myrcella doesn't want to be bullied, she can only rely on you. My mother’s family.”

Tyrion took a deep breath. Varys was right. Myrcella was obviously of Baratheon and Lannister blood. No matter which one, she was an enemy of the Targaryen family.

Even if Daenerys doesn't target Myrcella, without the support of her mother's family, she still has no confidence and can only hope for the favor of a man.

His sister who wants to kill him at any time is a ready example.

If Cersei wasn't named Lannister, Robert would have kicked Cersei aside long ago.

Wallis's voice suddenly became strange and inexplicable, and he spoke slowly:

“After all this time, do you think the Iron Throne still has hope of victory?
Open up wasteland, build roads, repair city walls, win over the people, reduce taxes, weaken the nobility, and there are many other changes that we cannot see.

The North is getting stronger day by day, but the nobles in the South are intrigues.

If the southern nobles lose, what do you think will happen to the Lannister family?
If you still want to preserve your family, you have to bind yourself to Jack's team, and you have to be the most important group in the team. "

Varys knows Tyrion very well, and he knows that even if the family doesn't like Tyrion, Tyrion still values ​​the honor of the family.

It is precisely because of this that Varys decided to take Tyrion to Jack.

In this way, Tyrion is like a nail buried next to Jack.

The more Jack relies on the nail, the more damage the nail causes.

This is indeed the case. In the original play, after Tyrion followed Daenerys, he was fine in the early stage. However, once he arrived in Westeros, he often got confused and even appeared to tie up a White Walker to show to Cersei. absurd decisions.

Soon the time came to noon, and the weather in the north was not hot, and snow had even begun to fall in the newly added area.

There are five arenas built in a venue large enough to accommodate more than 1 people. There will be an audition at the beginning, and then 256 people will be selected to start competing for rankings.

As the bell rang, the first martial arts competition in the Northern Province officially began.

Jack came to the front of the high platform, raised his right hand, and the scene instantly became quiet.

"I am very happy that you can come to watch this tournament. I would like to extend a warm welcome to all the citizens of the Northern Province who are here."

The maid then brought a tray with three glasses of wine on it.

"I have prepared three glasses of wine for this. Everyone, please pick up your glasses."

“With the first glass of wine, let’s toast to the summer that brings life.”

"Second cup, I respect everyone who has worked hard to build the Northern Province."

"Third cup, let us pay tribute to the great Atlantis Deep Sea Empire, long live the empire!"

"Long Live the Empire!"

"Long Live the Empire!"

As someone took the lead, the crowd's voice was like a roaring mountain and a tsunami.

Jack smiled with satisfaction when he saw this. People's emotions are easily affected by the people and environment around them, especially when there are trolls.

The naval force was naturally arranged by Jack. After all, the main purpose of this tournament was to increase cohesion, enhance Jack's own prestige, and show off his muscles to the northern nobles.

If it suddenly goes cold, it will be a big blow to Jack's reputation.

"I declare that the tourney has officially begun!" In the bustling venue, both Tyrion and Varys were silent.

After a moment, Varys spoke first, and there was something wrong with his voice, "Lord Tyrion, what do you think?"

Tyrion didn't speak, and after a few minutes of silence, he spoke.

"He is very good at winning over people's hearts. I don't know how to evaluate him. He seems to attach great importance to the common people, but isn't he afraid of the rebellion of the northern nobles?"

Tyrion's words were full of doubts. In his view, nobles were the basis of rule. A king needed nobles to fight for him and manage the country for him.

So Tyrion feels that Jack's approach is a bit "deviant".

Getting closer to the common people will undoubtedly make those nobles dissatisfied. Who will fight for him and who will manage the territory for him?
When the time comes to start a war with the southern nobles, the nobles will defy the enemy one by one, or even directly rebel. How can Jack fight against the southern army of 20 million?
Relying on farmers who don’t know anything?

However, the opening ceremony of the tourney quickly interrupted Tyrion's thoughts.

The opening ceremony was the military parade prepared by Jack.

The first one to appear was the formation of the Unsullied. The neat formation and the sound of the marching steps all demonstrated the power of this army.

This is a team of 500 people, divided into five square formations.

When the first phalanx arrived at the stand where Jack was, the commander gave an order, and the Unsullied looked uniformly in Jack's direction, and the spears in their hands changed direction with a clang.

"Long live the Empire, long live the Poseidon!"

"Long live the Empire, long live the Poseidon!"

"Long live the Empire, long live the Poseidon!"

Jack stood up, put his right fist on his left chest and said loudly: "Long live the Empire!"

Behind Jack, Clark Xiu immediately stood up with his upper body upright, his wings tens of meters long spread out, and his roar resounded throughout the entire tournament venue.

The goose step was taught by Jack. The Unsullied, who already had strong military discipline, could master the powerful goose step with just a little training.

Then came the Children of Winter. To be honest, the civilians who came to join in the fun didn't know what to say.

Although it is much better than the previous armies, after seeing the Unsullied's military formation, I can only say that it is unsatisfactory.

However, the Sons of Winter have many types of soldiers, covering almost all the types of soldiers they can think of.

There are light and heavy infantry, as well as various soldiers with strange weapons as well as crossbowmen and slingers, but there is no cavalry.

But then the cavalry appeared, the Crimson Dragon Knights led by Hecarim.

The Scarlet Dragon Knights are based on the Red Dragon Knights. All members are armored, with [-] heavy cavalry and [-] light cavalry.

Fifty heavy cavalry and 150 light cavalry, unified in red chain armor, full of aura.

This military parade did not involve the navy. Asha still had five thousand naval forces stationed on the rocky coast to guard against the Iron Islands.

The entire northern army has a total of 5000 million people.

They are five thousand Sons of Winter, five thousand Unsullied, five thousand Iron Fleet, five thousand White Harbor Fleet, two thousand Scarlet Dragon Knights, and three thousand noble levies.

Of course, noble levies are negligible.

However, even without counting the [-] noble levies, it has surpassed the military power during Robb Stark's reign.

According to news from the south, the bells of King's Landing are ringing again.

If nothing else, the bells ringing in King's Landing this time should be for Tywin.

After the tourney is over and Jack completely dismantles the power of the aristocracy, it's time to take action against the Riverlands.
