Chapter 68

Victarion Greyjoy's face was filled with despair as he saw his army being slaughtered almost unilaterally.

Under his haphazard command, many Iron Islands soldiers were so tired that they could not even pick up their weapons, let alone fight the enemy.

One soldier from the North fell, and a dozen from the Iron Islands fell.

When people around you fall one after another, and there are more and more enemies, morale will naturally collapse.

They dropped their weapons and started running.

Seeing that the situation was irreversible, Victarion Greyjoy had no choice but to abandon the soldiers who were still fighting and prepare to board the ship and escape.

"There are still about sixty ships. As long as there are ships, the Iron Islands will not be finished." He thought.

Unfortunately, things will always take a turn for the worst.

He heard a sound similar to thunder again, and he looked towards the direction of the army in the north, and then the picture was engraved in his heart forever.

The giant dragon's head exudes the breath of cold winter, and the icy mist rushes towards it. Wherever it goes, the ice is freezing and the river is frozen.

"Damn, what the hell was that?!"

-

"Legendary achievements, handed down achievements, Your Majesty! In the battle of Relang River, our army beheaded more than 53 people, surrendered more than [-] people, captured [-] ships, and countless weapons and armors!"

"It's just a pity that the leading Greyjoy escaped."

In the Tomb Hall, Thoros, one of the few literate red-robed monks, excitedly reported the results of this battle to Robb.

He felt that he was not with the wrong person. His Majesty Robb was definitely the one chosen by the King of Light!

Robb also smiled: "With the ship and these prisoners, I can finally develop a naval force in the north."

To attack the Iron Islands, forces on the sea are necessary.

But if you want to build your own ship, you have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse, which is far less convenient than the enemy coming to deliver it.

The aristocratic Mrs. Barbart of the Barren Tomb Hall showed a flattering smile at this time: "If your Majesty wants something, we at the Barren Tomb Hall will fully support it."

Lady Barber understands that if Robb, who drove away Tywin, is the king she cannot resist, then Robb, who has defeated the Iron Islands again, is the king she must actively serve.

Since Robb left Winterfell, he has won consecutive battles, almost to the point of being unstoppable.

In the hearts of the martial northerners, Robb may be the best Stark in the past thousand years.

The Stark family already had deep roots in the North, and by this time they had probably surrendered wholeheartedly to Robb.

Robb glanced at Lady Barber: "Since the people of the Iron Islands have been repelled by me, they will definitely be too weak to plunder again. You and the people of the stream land should do one thing for me. Build a building in Wolfwood. A lumberyard, I need wood.”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Mrs. Barber saluted respectfully.

beep-

While Robb was thinking about how to arrange the navy generals and soldiers, there was a rapid knock on the door.

"come in."

Little Jon and Daisy Mormont walked in, their faces filled with irrepressible joy.

Robb asked with a smile: "What other good news makes you so happy?"

Little Jon said loudly: "Two battle reports, Your Majesty. My side is about the Western Territory. My father and the other two earls, under the leadership of Sir Blackfish, have laid down Brand City and Cliff City, and then used them as strongholds to rob coastal.

We captured three gold mines, and Lady Meggie captured thousands of additional livestock, which are now being transported to Riverrun! "

The current defense of the Western Territory is very lax, and the main troops have basically been taken away by Tywin. The situation is very similar to the previous situation in the Riverlands.

Therefore, Sir Blackfish's operation went very smoothly, and the Western Territory was already relatively rich, so the supplies robbed far exceeded everyone's expectations.Robb was quite satisfied with the performance of Heiyu and the others: "Write a reply and tell Heiyu and your father that the coast near the two castles has been robbed, and you can train your troops there."

Because the troops from the north bypassed the heavily guarded Golden Teeth City and marched straight in, the connection between them and Riverrun City was not smooth.

The castle captured in this way is also an enclave.

Robb wanted more territory, and whether he gave it to his men or kept it for himself, he couldn't take the enclave away.

Therefore, Golden Tooth City must be captured.

After Robb finished his work in the north, the first thing he had to do when he returned to Riverrun was this.

It’s also time to expand the territory under your control.

After Little Jon finished his report, Robb looked at Daisy Mormont again: "What about you, do you have any good news?"

Daisy's face showed a happy expression: "Your Majesty, we have caught the traitor!"

During the previous hostage exchange, Robb used Jaime the Kingslayer to rescue his sister Sansa from King's Landing.

Lord Lakewood escorted him to White Harbor.

The Manderlys of White Harbor take over and send soldiers to escort Sansa back to Winterfell.

At this time, a coincidence happened.

Theon Greyjoy wanted to prove himself to his father and the people of the Iron Islands, so he went to attack Winterfell with a few men.

Just happened to run into the soldiers of the Mandalay family.

Coupled with the soldiers left behind in Winterfell and nearby Severn City, Theon Greyjoy's team was directly killed and defeated, and Theon was captured.

Because Theon had a special identity, he was Robb's brother since childhood, so they did not kill Theon directly, but came to ask Robb how to deal with it.

Everyone hates traitors.

He hates traitors even more than his enemies.

Moreover, Robb gave Theon a chance, and it was he who chose the path to oppose the North.

In this case, Robb has no intention of keeping Theon alive.

Just give Theon a good time, or hand him over to Little Skin and let him suffer some torture before dying?

Robb thought for a while and decided to let Theon exert some residual heat and kill him directly after having some effect.

It can also be regarded as a little affection for me and him who have lived together since childhood.

"You write to Winterfell and ask them to keep Theon in a place where he can be easily rescued, but under strict guard in the dark. As long as someone comes to rescue, they will catch the person who comes to rescue. As for Theon, just Don’t worry about his life or death.”

Robb knew that Asha from the Iron Islands looked down on his brother on the surface, but he valued family ties.

He will definitely come to save Zhen En.

This woman is of great use to him. She can be used to help him counterattack the Iron Islands.

When she learned that her father was killed by her own brother, no matter how unwilling she was, she could only take revenge herself.

By then, your own navy will be able to practice.

Now all I think about is counterattack and occupation...

Robb felt quite emotional. After coming out of Winterfell and fighting the battles in the Riverlands and the North, the offensive and defensive situation was finally about to change!
