Game of Thrones: From King of Elden to Teen Wolf Lord

Chapter 14: Soldiers Arrive at Luanhe City

"During my absence, the command of the army will be temporarily taken over by Lord Roose Bolton, assisted by Lord Maege Severn, and Lord Maege Mormont will continue to be responsible for the military supervision of the army."

Previously, Robb mobilized and arranged personnel for the main force. This made Greatjon and Rickard Karstark very angry. In their view, their abilities were not fully recognized by Robb. .

But they did not contradict Robb in public. They already knew how to maintain the lord's authority in front of outsiders.

So the two found Robb privately after the meeting.

The Greatjon gasped, "I don't understand, my lord. Roose Bolton is a schemer, how could you hand over your army to him!"

Rickard Karstark said nothing, but it could be seen from his expression that he agreed with the Greatjon.

Robb poured a glass of ale for the two of them: "What do you think of Countess Meggie?"

The Greatjon answered without hesitation: "Loyal, bad-tempered, a little stubborn and willful."

"So do you think she is competent in her role as the captain of the Military Law Corps?"

Greatjon hesitated for a moment, but said honestly: "Of course, her personality is most suitable for doing such offending things."

Robb took a sip of ale and said, "What if I promote her to Commander-in-Chief? Do you think she can do this job well?"

Neither Greatjon nor Rickard Karstark spoke anymore. They were smart people and had already understood the hidden meaning of Robb’s words. After a while, Rickard Karstark became angry. Said:

"I know we are not suitable, but we can't let that pervert who likes skinning be the commander-in-chief. He is a complete conspirator. As far as I know, he has left a lot of cavalry in his horror fortress. I'm afraid Hiding evil thoughts."

Robb comforted him: "The water in the Green Fork River is clear, and the water in the swamps is erosive, but both water sources have their own uses. The Green Fork River irrigates the soil, and the swamps block enemies. How can I only prefer the Green Fork River and hate the swamps?" Land?"

"If the Green Fork River floods, I will try my best to repair it. If the swamp becomes more and more eroded and affects the residence of the people in the territory, I will also lead people to manage it. Although there are good and bad differences between the two, there is no good or bad in my eyes. The only thing is whether the two can be properly invoked.”

"In the faraway land of wisdom, there is a saying that I like very much. This saying is: Clouds hover in the sky, and water remains at the bottom of the bottle. Each of you has your own place. You are a cloud, and I will let you sit in the sky. , it’s water, I’ll put you at the bottom of the bottle.”

Greatjon and Rickard Karstark were stunned, not knowing what to say.

A large part of the reason is that they didn't understand what their lord was saying, but they could still understand the meaning: Roose Bolton is more suitable for this position than you, but I trust you more, and you will perform better in the future. Chance.

As for asking them to understand in detail those metaphors and proverbs from a distant country, it would be better to just kill them.

This half-understanding confusion made the two of them feel that Robb was smarter than them, and much smarter.

If ordinary lords dared to talk to them like this and say such nonsense, they would have impatiently drawn their swords to shut them up.

But they all knew the horror and mystery of Robb, and no one had the guts to do so.

Rickard Stark stood up helplessly: "Okay, we obey your decision."

After taking down the Great Jon and Rickard Stark, Robb immediately ordered the troops to move out.The main force followed Roose Bolton and advanced along the King's Road. The main goal was to block Tywin's army who was burning, killing and looting along the King's Road.

Robb himself, with less than [-] wolf cavalry, was preparing to go to Luanhe City Ferry and cross the Green Fork River to support the besieged Riverrun City.

……

Luanhe City is not far from where Robb is, and the wolf cavalry are all cavalry. Their speed is different from that of large troops. It only took less than an hour for Robb to reach the skyline. I saw Luanhe City.

Theon Greyjoy looked around and said in a relaxed tone: "The people tied to these road signs are all spies of the Lannister family. It seems that Earl Frey of Luanhe City is standing with us."

Sir Blackfish's expression was serious: "This doesn't mean anything. Luanhe City summoned a team of 4000 people, but Lord Frey did not go to Riverrun when the Tully family summoned their vassals. Guarding one's own territory is one thing. It's another thing to go to war with the Lannisters for honor."

Robb was hesitant in his heart. He knew that Earl Frey had no honor at all, and only enough benefits could impress this guy.

But this guy wouldn't have thought that he and he were actually the same kind of people.

The team soon arrived outside Luanhe City. This was the first time Robb saw with his own eyes the castle where the 'Red Wedding' later took place.

It has two fortresses, straddling both sides of the Green Fork River, forming a horns with each other. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if Robb brings the main force to attack, it will still take 2 people to fight against [-] in the city. plenty of time.

Of course, the premise is that the current Robb will not take action with all his strength.

Looking at the closed city gate, Sir Blackfish was itching his teeth angrily: "This old guy doesn't take the oath he swore seriously at all. No wonder my brother never trusts him!"

Robb said calmly: "I heard that Lord Frey is very old. He has the caution of an old man and the ambition of a young man, not to mention careful calculation. So such a person must help whoever wins. "

"This old turtle!" Sir Blackfish cursed. "The Lannister army burned farmland and plundered farmlands in his territory, but he hid inside and couldn't come out."

Viewed from a distance, the walls of Luanhe City are filled with the light and shadow of spears, swords and large crossbows. Archers are deployed at every battlement and arrow opening. The suspension bridge has been raised and the gate has been lowered.

Obviously, Lord Frey gathered all the four thousand soldiers he had gathered into the castle.

While everyone was observing the castle, a side door suddenly opened, a plank bridge stretched out across the moat, and a dozen knights came towards them.

They carried the flag of twin towers of dark blue on a silver gray background, and all of them looked like weasels.

A rider walked in the forefront and came to the front of Robb's team. He looked especially like an old and tired weasel, but he was quite polite: "My father sent me to greet you. May I ask who is leading this powerful team?" Who is he?"

Robb rode forward: "You should have heard my name, Robb Stark."

Gray Wind followed Robb, staring at the other man's horse with a savage glare in his eyes.

There was a flash of interest in the old knight's watery gray eyes, but his mount grunted uneasily and avoided the direwolf. "If you are willing to have dinner with my father in the city and express your intention to come, I believe he will be greatly honored."
