Game of Thrones: Roar of the Dragon

Lys is one of the nine free trade cities, located on the southern coast of the eastern continent.

It is southeast of Tyrosh and west of Volantis, and is known as 'The Lovely Lys'.

Rees is an island city surrounded by the stormy Summer Sea.

But during the calm summer sea, the whole island of Rees has a cool climate, plenty of sunshine, and fertile land.
There are a lot of palm trees and fruit trees, the ocean is turquoise and there are many fish activities.

Lys's alchemists were well known and worked throughout the city, renowned for their poisons, the Strangler being one of them.

The Lysians were extremely dependent on the slave trade, with slaves outnumbering free Lysians three to one, most of whom were bed slaves and brothel slaves.

Breeding, producing and selling beautiful little boys and beautiful female slaves has become one of Rees's pillar industries.

The most famous brothel was called 'Perfume Garden'.

At this moment, the entire island of Lys was surrounded by the Conqueror's fleet, and many Westeros troops were even stationed outside the city of Lys.

After taking over the entire disputed land, the armies of Duke Forester and Luceris reunited.

After a brief military meeting, Lusris made the decision to pursue the victory on behalf of his brother.

After leaving the local Edmund's tribe to establish and maintain the disputed land, the entire Westeros army, which absorbed surrendered soldiers and slaves, reached a size of 40,000 to 50,000 people.

When the Beoro army was captured due to internal strife, it marked the official collapse of the coalition between Lys and Volantis.

In fact, even if they did not collapse, their previous defeats had already exhausted their own strength.

These two free city-states are now in a state of being unable to save themselves.

Since Reese was closer, he was unlucky enough to become the first target.

But since each of these free city-states is like a hedgehog, not only are their walls high and strong, they are also filled with various city defense equipment.

The only way in and out of Rees is through the East Gate, except for the port which is currently completely closed and blocked.

The focus of Rees's defense is naturally the eastern city wall.

Westeros has landed for seven or eight days now, and has not launched a formal attack yet.

Therefore, the mentality of the thousands of soldiers defending the city and tens of thousands of civilians in Lys has changed from being anxious and worried about the Westeros army attacking the city to being accustomed to it now.

In their view, it seemed that the group of Westeros soldiers surrounding Lys were just there for show, and their biggest move every day was just cooking on time.

As usual, when the sun was high in the sky, smoke from cooking fires rose from the Westeros army camp.

Dangdang Dangdang!
A very urgent alarm sounded in the city of Rees, making the soldiers guarding the city on the east wall of Rees feel nervous.

But when they looked outside the city wall, they found that there were no enemies on the only eastern avenue.

"There is no enemy at all. Who is sounding the alarm?"

"Yes, anyone who lies about military intelligence should be arrested."

"It wasn't us knocking, it was coming from the west wall!"

"west?"

Upon hearing this, the many soldiers guarding the east wall all looked towards the west.

However, since the walls on both sides were of the same height, one could not see what was happening outside the city at all. One could only see a large column of thick black smoke rising from outside the west city.

“The Governor has ordered that 700 men be left behind at the east wall.

The rest of the people will all carry the items needed to defend the city and go to the west wall to provide support."

At this moment, several messengers ran up the east wall from different steps of the city wall to convey the governor's orders.

Due to the terrain, the east wall of Lys is much higher than the west wall.

This is because the terrain to the west is steep, making it almost impossible for the enemy to launch an attack from this direction.

Therefore, when Governor Reese arranged the city defense, he placed most of the soldiers on the east wall.

There were only five or six hundred soldiers from the city of Rees on the west wall, and they were also responsible for maintaining public security and guarding the city.

But what they didn't expect was that the enemy would unexpectedly launch an attack from the west wall.

So how did they land from the steep western side?

It's impossible to fly up, right?
At this moment, looking at at least tens of thousands of Westeros enemy troops outside the western wall, the 'great' Lysandra's face turned pale.

Lysandre the Great is Lysandre Rogar, patriarch of the Rogar family of Lys and the wealthiest banker in Lys.

The Rogal Bank controlled by Lysandra is now more powerful in Essos than the Iron Bank of Braavos.

So the first governor of Rees proclaimed himself the first governor for life and intimidated the other governors of Rees.

The reason why Lisandro's face turned pale was that the enemy actually "flew" up from the ship in the western sea.

I saw a bunch of strange oval-shaped objects made of huge canvas, which were large at the top and small at the bottom, appearing under the western wall.

There are many large baskets hanging under these strange oval objects, and inside the baskets are Westeros soldiers sitting.

It’s naturally impossible for the native people of Game of Thrones to know about hot air balloons.

This was the story that Jakaris had told Lusiris when he was a child. Unexpectedly, Lusiris had always kept it in mind.

After considering that these free city-states are easy to defend but difficult to attack, Lusris thought it would be great if his soldiers could fly.

When he thought of this, a light bulb went off in his head and he instantly remembered the hot air balloon.

So he worked together with Ella to produce a batch of hot air balloons that could carry soldiers for short-distance flights.

Although Ella's magic power has made some breakthroughs now, let alone carrying so many soldiers, even a short flight would consume a lot of magic power.

But it would be much simpler if we just used air convection to make the hot air balloon rise.

shhhhhh!
After realizing what was happening, Lisandro immediately ordered his archers to shoot at the hot air balloons.

Shhhhhhh!
These crude, makeshift hot air balloons naturally had no defensive capabilities and were directly pierced with dense holes by arrows.

The hot air inside, which was filled with Ella's magic, suddenly began to overflow.

But it doesn't matter. The height is now enough for Westeros soldiers to land under the western wall.

After all, they are experiments, and these hot air balloons do not have control valves to allow them to land safely.

So it was impossible to launch an airstrike directly from the sky into the city of Lys. Lisandro didn't know what other means these enemies had, and he didn't think that the relatively low western wall of Lys could stop them.

Watching the successful landing and the enemies rushing towards the western wall of Rees City like a tide.

Lisandro was ready to sacrifice most of the people so that he and his family could escape.

Huh? These foreigners!
But when Lysandro saw the group of foreigners approaching, he suddenly seemed to discover something.
Then he shouted to the soldiers guarding the city with a look of surprise on his face: "Soldiers, don't be afraid!
These enemies seemed to have only a battering ram and no other siege equipment.

Now keep an eye on that battering ram and don't let them get close to the city wall!"

shhhhhh!
The soldiers guarding the western wall heard this and found that it was just as their first governor had said.
These enemies didn't even have siege ladders, and they immediately began to launch a fierce attack with high morale on a group of enemy soldiers who were carrying battering rams.

Westeros soldiers kept falling down from being shot by arrows, and in order to reduce the weight of the heaters, they had no other siege equipment.

Without even a kite shield to cover their entire bodies, these Westeros siege soldiers could only use small one-handed round shields to barely protect their upper bodies.

The Westeros army's siege soldiers carrying the battering ram suffered heavy casualties, but fortunately there were constant reinforcements from other siege soldiers in the rear.

This thick and long battering ram, which was transported up separately by two hot air balloons, slowly moved towards the gate of Rees City.

what! ! !
All kinds of screams and wails were heard on the battlefield on the west wall. These sounds were all from the Westeros siege soldiers.

Even Lisandro was extremely surprised that these nearly a thousand siege soldiers did not cause any death on the other side.

"****..."

Suddenly, a melodious and strange singing voice that could not be covered up by the extremely noisy screams came into Lisandro's ears.

His gaze involuntarily shifted to the left, towards the source of the melodious singing.

I don't know when four Westeros siege soldiers came.
They carried a sedan chair covered with wooden shields and reinforced with layers of reinforcement and quietly arrived in front of the western wall of the city of Lis.

Since the soldiers guarding the west wall were focusing their attention on the battering ram, they did not notice the existence of the sedan until now.

Boom boom boom!
A small hand stretched out from the sedan chair and pointed to the left side of the low western wall of Rees.
Lisandro suddenly felt the ground begin to tremble, as if a monster was brewing underground and was about to break out of its cage.

Click, click, click!
The compacted soil under the left side of the western city wall was suddenly torn apart by an invisible force.
A crack suddenly appeared, nearly ten meters long and seven or eight meters deep in the center, then gradually decreasing from the middle to the left and right.

Puff puff puff!
The one-meter-long wall without the rammed earth foundation was like a castle in the air. After making a series of creaking sounds,
They split straight through and fell into a huge dark crack.

After the huge smoke and dust raised by the collapse of the city wall dissipated, the western wall of the city of Rees became a "V" shape due to the depth of the large crack.

Ang~~~
When the western wall of Rees collapsed, Lusris, who had been hiding in the clouds, immediately swooped down at high speed on Araxes.

At the same time, Araxes opened his dragon mouth and let out a dragon roar that resounded throughout Lys.

As the dragon roared, the morale of the Westeros soldiers on the west wall suddenly increased, and they all rushed towards the gap in the wall of Lys.

This was not only because they had the assistance of the dragon, but also because Lusiris followed his brother's previous instructions.
Before the war, he personally announced the system of upgrading military merits.

Whether it is the Westeros soldiers, captives or slaves, they all eagerly demand the heads of their enemies in exchange for wealth, freedom and status.

When the wall collapsed, Lysandre was knocked unconscious by the violent tremors.

After regaining consciousness, he immediately commanded the archers on the city wall to concentrate their firepower and shoot at the gap.

Then he immediately ran down the city wall and shouted loudly, asking the large number of Rees soldiers who had just arrived from the east wall to go and block the gap.

As this large number of Rees soldiers approached, extremely brutal close combat broke out at this gap.

hold head high!
Lisandro was looking at the temporarily blocked gap in the western city wall. Just as he was thinking about how to block the gap, a terrifying dragon roar came from the sky.

Wow!

Long, thin dragon flames like flamethrowers exploded on the western city wall.

More than a dozen soldiers defending the city were directly swallowed by the dragon flame and burned to ashes.

Boom! ! !
Wow!
Araxes' dragon body fell from the sky and smashed directly into the V-shaped collapsed part of the western city wall.

The impact caused large and small pieces of gravel to fly in all directions.

These pieces of rubble are nothing to the dragon, but they are more important than bombs and bullets to the soldiers defending the nearby Rees.

Swish!
Arax was stuck in the collapsed gap of the western city wall, which was the area where the fighting between soldiers of both sides was the most intense.

Dangdang Dangdang!
Several Rees soldiers rushed to Araxes' body with swords and shields raised.

call!
The heavy sound of dragon wings was heard, and one of Araxes' dragon wings swept across the enemies around his body.

Dangdang Dangdang!
The swords, axes and other weapons in the hands of the enemy soldiers who were rushing towards Araxes were knocked away directly.

But two or three more enemy soldiers, who were not sure whether to say they were lucky or unlucky, directly avoided the attack of Araxes' dragon wings and then rushed madly towards Araxes' dragon body.

Tear!

Zhi! ! !
Araxes was no longer the young dragon it once was. It just opened its mouth and bit forward.

The two or three Rees soldiers were cut in half, and a large amount of blood spurted out like two or three small fountains.

The three Stormland soldiers whose internal organs were spilling all over the ground were not dead yet.
While wailing in pain, they used their hands to climb up on the ground, trying to get away from the terrifying dragon.

Lusris, who has survived the bloody storm, already has a wealth of combat experience.

He knew that he would never be lenient towards his enemies on the battlefield!
After controlling Araxes to bite three Lys soldiers to death, the soldiers of the Westeros army rushed to the gap in the west wall.

At this time, Lusris felt the pressure suddenly reduced, and began to command his dragon loudly and rushed towards the surrounding enemies while waving his sword.

Araxes continued to reap Rees' lives like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, leaving blood and corpses all over the ground.

Thanks to the efforts of Lucerys and other Westeros soldiers, they successfully expanded the gap in the west wall in a semicircle.

However, since most of the soldiers from Rees were gathered on the western wall, the army of Westeros could not break through for a while.

Kill! ! !
Just when the gap in the west wall was about to lead to a stalemate, suddenly, a huge shout came from behind the Rees soldiers on the west wall.

It turned out that the Westeros army that had been stationed under the east wall in the past few days suddenly made an effort and directly mobilized manpower to break through the east wall of the west wall.

And now they were stabbing the Reese troops on the city walls from inside the city.

"Surrender your weapons and kneel down, and you will not be killed!"

As the Westeros soldiers in the city shouted in unison, the Lys soldiers, who no longer had any supervisors behind them, threw down their weapons and knelt down in surrender.

The once invincible free city-state, Rees! Just like that, it fell into the control of Lusiris! (End of this chapter)
