Chapter 118 Sweep
"Come in, don't care if they are civilians or not. If they dare to resist, they are our enemies. Go and rob and kill them!"

In the Riverlands, the villages that had not been peaceful for a long time were looted by the Lannister army again.

An army under the banner of the nobility rushed into a small village. They were surprised to find that the residents here actually dared to resist with pitchforks.

For the residents of the Riverlands, being looted is a common thing. Because of its special geographical location, the Riverlands has always been a battlefield for various great nobles.

But this time, not only did they have psychological expectations, but they were also fully prepared.

"Everyone move! We are no match for them. If you see the armor they are wearing, our pitchforks can't penetrate it! We need traps to move them!"

"Don't act alone. Have you forgotten what I taught you before? Form a team, hit them with rocks first, knock them unconscious, and then steal the weapons and equipment!"

"Remember, land! Women! Knighthood! These things are beckoning to you!"

In the village, there are many soldiers who have never been selected into the Blood Wolf Army and Winter Wolf Army.

They had fought several big battles under Robb and could be considered elite veterans. Robb ordered these people to teach some basic battlefield skills to the residents of the village after they returned.

Every resident must dig a cellar at home to prevent the enemy from hiding in when there are too many enemies and his side has no chance of winning.

These civilians were organized and drilled by retired soldiers at a fixed time every day, and they were also given a name: militia.

Although the combat effectiveness of these militiamen is not strong, they are familiar with the conditions in their own villages and can use their geographical advantages to deal with a small number of enemies.

In order to encourage their fighting spirit, Robb also placed bounties on Lannister soldiers and nobles.

Robb didn't expect them to really drive the enemy out, but at least they had to give the enemy some resistance and estimate the enemy's combat power and number during the battle.

"No, there are too many of these bastards. Go home and hide first!"

Soon, the resistance in the village became somewhat unstoppable.

They are just militiamen who have been trained for a period of time, and are certainly no match for the regular army.

Residents gathered in small groups and hid in cellars.

"Damn it, where are those mud-legged people?" The nobles on the Lannister side looked around in astonishment.

The civilians armed with pitchforks and stones were like locusts, crawling out of every corner, hitting and running.

They shot arrows and chased them in batches, and finally saw some results, but the opponent disappeared mysteriously.

As if it never happened.

"Even if we turn over the entire ground and dig to the deepest part of the ground, we still have to catch them all!"

"I'm going to kill them all, all of them! I'm going to find all their wives and children and strip them naked, and I'm going to fuck those bitches in front of them!"

"And their mother, let every horse in the team ride once!"

The nobleman cursed angrily. He touched his face and the armor on his body, which were all stained with the food of reincarnation.

I don’t know where the mud legs here came from. The pitchforks and thrown stones are covered with those disgusting things.

Although the actual killing effect is not very good, the ability to disgust people is first-rate.

It may take some time to find those people, but as long as these people are willing to take the time, they can still find all the people in the village.

"It seems they are not ready to leave. We are ready to fight them to the death!"

In the cellar, people from three or five families gathered together. Listening to the troops outside running back and forth looking for movement, despair arose in their hearts, but also a hint of courage arose in their hearts.

At this moment, bursts of thunder seemed to be heard in the distant sky.

"It's strange, it's a sunny day now, why is there thunder? Is it going to rain?"

"What nonsense are you talking about! Have you never been on the battlefield? This is not thunder, it is cavalry! Heavy cavalry!" A veteran yelled.

All the Lannister soldiers had a look of horror on their faces. They were just ordinary soldiers. It was okay to let them deal with those peasants, but wouldn't it be a joke to face heavy cavalry?

"Quick! Hide in the room. Sooner or later, you will be crushed to death by the heavy cavalry outside!"

The Lannister soldiers panicked and all hid in nearby huts.

When the imposing wolf cavalry arrived in the village, Gray Wind's wolf howl first announced to everyone that the wolf cavalry had arrived!

Gray Wind excitedly ran back and forth beside Robb's horse, telling Robb that there were a lot of enemies here, and he had smelled them!

Seeing the village falling into an eerie calm, Robb waved his hands and the wolf riders rushed in.

Then they immediately dispersed into small groups, with some dismounting and others on horseback on guard.

After searching one room after another, the Lannister soldiers hiding in the houses were no match for the heavy armored cavalry. The crushing strength of the wolf cavalry allowed the wolf cavalry to clear the battlefield very quickly.

"Your Majesty Robb is here, long live!"

"Yes, I remember the sound of that wolf howling. That is the incarnation of His Majesty Robb, the most cruel giant wolf to the enemy! Long live!"

"Follow me and rush out and kill!" Residents in the village noticed the movement outside and rushed out one after another, holding kitchen knives and pitchforks stained with unknown objects.

The Lannister soldiers were originally hiding in the house in twos and threes, but an enemy suddenly appeared from behind. Coupled with the pressure of the powerful enemy outside, they were caught off guard.

On one side were the civilians who almost fell into a state of madness as they shouted "Kill! For your Majesty Robb!"

On one side are the wolf cavalry who are cold and ruthless, wearing terrifying armor, and cutting off lives with every drop of their sword.

The Lannister soldiers couldn't even muster the will to resist.

Soon, the entire village experienced a baptism of blood, turning from melee to calm and returning to its previous appearance.

Robb rode in the center of the village, watching his men count the loot.

The residents of the village gathered around him, knelt down in front of Robb and shouted long live the mountain.

"Your Majesty Robb, we are extremely grateful for your rescue. Our entire village will fight to the death for your honor!"

Robb looked at the residents in the village and encouraged: "In the face of invasion, it is not easy for you to stand up and defend. What you should be more grateful for is yourself.

Those Lannisters and nobles are not born to be superior to you. You and they have two arms and one head. Keep your fighting spirit today and fight! "

The residents were greatly encouraged, with determination and joy on their faces, but not everyone could receive words of encouragement from the king himself.

From now on, when comparing yourself with other villagers, all you need to say is, 'We once fought alongside His Majesty Robb! 'You can make the other person speechless!

Robb's existence and words are an honor in themselves for the situation in the Riverlands!
Many of the rescued girls looked at Robb with blurred eyes and already sad hearts.

'Why?Who on earth abolished that damn right of first night? ! '

They knew that today might be the closest they got to Robb, and they would not even have the chance to see such a legendary figure again in the future.

It would be nice if that ancient tradition still existed. This place is not far from the City of Stars. Maybe His Majesty Robb will exercise his power on a whim!

If she can be blessed by a king like Robb, the husband's family she will marry into will feel more radiant on her face, and their status will be improved accordingly.

But, those are all their fantasies.

Even if there was such a weird thing as the Right of First Night, Robb wouldn't do it.

Even for an open-minded person, this is too perverted.

Ow!

Gray Wind howled again, smelling the scent of other enemies in the wind.

Robb galloped his horse and raised his whip: "Turn in!"

Like thunder, the sound of horse hooves sounded again.

Robb set out again in the eyes of everyone's admiration and hope.

-

Hightower Barracks, near Highgarden.

The maesters said confidently: "Ser Baelor Hightower, based on the measured height of the city wall, we can be sure that this thing will work."

"Okay, okay! In this case, maybe we can take Highgarden before Lord Tywin arrives!"

Sir Hightower was overjoyed. He came outside the military camp tent and looked at the huge creature in front of him, feeling extremely excited.

This is a catapult.

It is not an ordinary catapult, it is an upgraded version of the catapult that was developed through the blueprints given by Tywin and the collective research of the bachelors in the city.

In traditional catapults, soldiers pull a rope. After tightening it, they use the power of a lever to project the stones inside, just like a toy slingshot.

But this catapult has been upgraded, and a counterweight is hung on the short arm at the front end. When launched, the counterweight falls suddenly under the action of gravity, and then is transmitted through the lever to throw the stone at the long arm end.

The bachelors in the city were amazed: "It's really amazing. I didn't expect that a short arm and a long arm can explode several times in strength after passing through a fulcrum!"

"Now we don't need manpower to tighten the rope. The catapult can load heavier objects, and its range and stability are much further than ordinary catapults."

Sir Baylor thought thoughtfully: "In other words, if our catapults are facing each other and throwing rocks, we can hit each other, but the other side can't touch us?"

"Yes! And this thing still has room for improvement. We can find some materials to strengthen the catapult. This can lengthen the lever of the catapult without breaking, burst out with stronger force, and further improve the power and range!"

The bachelor in the city was very excited. He could feel that history seemed to be rewritten by him at this moment. This was a breakthrough in history!

"When the time comes, even if the dragon is hovering in the sky, we won't worry about having no countermeasures!"

After finishing speaking, the bachelor returned to the military camp. The improvement of this trebuchet was only part of the drawings sent by Tywin.

There are other tools that have also been upgraded, and he can't wait to study them now.
