Chapter 24 Delayed Battle Report

"Father, are you surprised that I'm not dead yet? The dwarves raised a big shield and taught their archers to die from a headache."

After the battle, Tyrion crawled out of the corpse mountain and sea of ​​​​blood to find his father, making nonsensical witticisms.

His father is the current Warden of the West and the head of the Lannister family, Tywin Lannister.

Tywin, dressed in a gorgeous lion look, showed no emotion on his face when facing his son whose arm was almost cut off. He was busy tasting wine from a jewel-encrusted cup and enjoying the joy of victory.

Seeing this, Tyrion pretended to be panicked and said: "Oh, will my not dying ruin your plan? If that's the case, I deserve to die."

Tywin glanced at him: "The wildlings you brought out from the bottom of Arryn Valley are somewhat useful. I did put you in the unorganized and undisciplined left phalanx. According to my idea, Robb's young boy As soon as we saw the left wing was defeated, we should have pressed forward with the army."

"Haha, you threw me into a losing team and thrust your son's neck into the enemy's blade with your own hands. You still refused to tell me in advance so that I could understand."

Tywin drank all the wine in the glass: "If everyone knows, it is not a military secret. If you know that you are going to die, can you act so realistically?"

Tyrion glanced at this so-called father with disgust and said nothing.

Just because he was born a dwarf, there was not a day that went by that the guardian of the Western Region did not want him to die.

Because of his pitiful honor, this Lord Tywin wanted to die a thousand times, but he still had to maintain the surface dignity, humiliate him all the time, and discriminate against him everywhere, just to let himself die.

But I don’t want to follow his wishes!
He wanted me to never appear in front of him again, so I just wanted to live an upright life and always remind this damn father: You still have a dwarf son!
Tywin, who didn't pay attention to the little devil's expression, took off his armor under the service of his attendants.

"Given Robb Stark's age, he is extremely cautious in using his troops, and it is very difficult not to be fooled. But I am more skilled, and victory is victory. In the final analysis, I am still a young boy who has more courage than wisdom. ."

Tyrion still wanted to say something to ridicule, but now that Tywin had just won a battle, it would be useless no matter how much he mocked him. Tywin didn't care at all.

At this moment, the two heard an urgent cry: "Lord Tywin!".

Ser Adam Malbrandn, one of Tywin's men, came riding up on a fast horse. As soon as he dismounted, the horse was foaming at the mouth and bleeding from the mouth.

Duke Tywin stood up to greet him, and Sir Adam knelt down in front of him: "Your Excellency, we have captured some enemy leaders, including Earl Severn, Ser Willis Manderly, and Harion Karstark. Killed Lord Hornwood. But most of the people fled, their will to fight was not strong."

Lord Tywin didn't hear the news he wanted and asked, "Where is that brat Stark?"

Sir Adam swallowed: "According to the information from the prisoners, Robb Stark did not join them, but went to Riverrun with three hundred heavy cavalry."

"What a brat, he is so courageous and wise!" Tyrion couldn't help laughing when he remembered his father's comment just now.

Tywin was a little sulky, but he quickly calmed down: "He only has 300 people. What can he do even if he goes to Riverrun? Do you want to defeat Jaime with just 300 people?"

Sir Adam reminded: "There are still 4000 people in Luanhe City, the number of people in Haijiang City is unknown, and the number of defenders in Riverrun City is also unknown. And because Riverrun City is surrounded by rivers, Lord James will probably disperse his troops in three places. Only Only in this way can Riverrun City be surrounded. If that brat defeats them one by one..."

Tywin knew that he had been killed by a kid. He finally understood why the troops in the north dispersed at the first touch. There were 2 people on his side and 2 on the other side, but they could win so easily. This was not very reasonable in the first place.

It turns out that everything was for the cover of that boy Robb.

Unlike the little devil Tyrion, Tywin cares most about his son Jaime, who is his only recognized heir. "Instruct the three armies to march towards Luanhe City at all costs. Throw away all supplies and baggage as much as possible, and advance as quickly as possible!"

"Yes!"

Ser Adam has been following Lord Tywin for many years, and this is the first time he has seen Lord Tywin act so rude.

……

The northern troops had just been defeated by 2 men led by Tywin, and now retreated to rest near the King's Road.

Greatjon's voice was as loud as thunder: "Why didn't you take the initiative?! Let them kill so many of us in vain?"

The person he questioned was naturally the current commander of this team, Roose Bolton.

"We have 2 people, and there are almost the same number on the other side. What's the point of a fight?"

Roose Bolton ignored Greatjon's nonsense: "We are no match for Tywin. They have more than 6000 cavalry, and we only have more than 2000. The opponent's archers are also better equipped than us."

"You fart! One of our northerners can beat up ten of them!"

Roose Bolton was too lazy to argue with this reckless man: "I am the commander appointed by Lord Robb. If you have any dissatisfaction, wait until this war is over before complaining to Lord Robb. Now you have to listen to me. Order!"

Rickard Karstark was also very anxious. His eldest son was captured by Tywin. He couldn't think about the problem calmly: "Then we can't do nothing, our people are captured!"

Roose Bolton comforted: "Some of them have been captured by us! The nobles will not kill each other directly. Just wait for the exchange of prisoners. Your son will appear in front of you intact."

Although the army in the north was defeated, it still retained its strength. The 2-strong team suffered more than 2000 casualties in the battle.

But they only defeated a group of wildlings and mercenaries tricked by the little devil, and the main force led by Tywin was basically unaffected.

Roose Bolton thought for a while: "Since the other side has captured prisoners, they should already know about the Young Wolf Lord going to Riverrun to support. They must want to support Riverrun. We must adopt guerrilla tactics and harass them. We cannot let them and The regicides unite in one place!”

After appeasing the remaining defeated generals and formulating a new battle plan, Roose Bolton set off with the remaining soldiers in the north.

……

The news that Robb defeated Jaime has not yet reached the battlefield on the other side of the river. At this moment, King's Landing knows nothing about the battle situation on the front line. Everyone thinks that the war is about to end and Jaime will sweep across the entire Riverlands. The next one It's the North.

Early in the morning, Emperor Qiao, who loved his people like a son, was excited. He was ready to do the first big thing since he took over.

He wants to put the former prime minister on trial.

 Thanks to [Wang Xiaohei downstairs] for your monthly ticket.
