Game of Thrones: Roar of the Dragon

Chapter 50: Betrayal as a matter of course

In the inner city of Lanark Town, the mayor's study.

“Well, you two should take a look at this letter too!
Tell us what you think after reading this.”

Sitting on a high-backed bench, Jacaris handed the letter he had just read to Stone beside him.

Stone took the letter and read it carefully, then handed it back to Rudy with a thoughtful look on his face.

Rudy quickly scanned the entire letter and spoke first: "Your Majesty, Lord Beoro requests that you intercept the enemy fleet in the Strait of Atlantis.

I think this is feasible!

It was the only way back to Tyrosh and Myr from Lys.

As long as we deploy the wildfire ointment you mentioned in advance, we can destroy any fleet in one fell swoop!"

"The combined fleet has already been ambushed once, I don't think they will fall for it so easily again.

And I've always wondered, is the Kingdom of Three Daughters really divided like this?"

After Rudy finished speaking, Stone immediately took over and expressed his own thoughts.

“Haha, you all don’t realize the key point of this letter.

How about this!
I'll give you a hint, Volantis Fleet!"

Jacaerys chuckled and gave some advice to the two confidants he had trained.

"The Volantis fleet split in two and joined us in attacking the two fleets fleeing from Lys.

Hmm, are they lying?

Wants us to face two enemy fleets alone."

Hearing Rudy’s words, Stone shook his head and said half in reply and half to himself: “Volantis has no need to lie.

After all, Your Majesty can easily find out the movements of these three fleets as long as he rides the dragon for reconnaissance.

Half of the fleet pursued the enemy ships, and the other half besieged the city of Lys...

Wait, why would Volantis want to divide his forces?"

"Why? Because two enemy fleets are fleeing in our direction."

“They can just ignore it!

The enemy's strength has been reduced by two-thirds. We can now fully concentrate our forces to easily capture the city of Rees."

"But, we are allies!"

"All right!"

Jacaris thought it was about right, so he concluded directly.
“If I were Volantis, I would definitely do as Stone said and concentrate all my forces to take over Lys first.

As for us and the other two enemy fleets, no matter who wins in the end, our strength will be greatly weakened.

At that time, they can easily come in and clean up the mess.

The Stepstones, the disputed lands, will all fall into Volantis' control.

Give up such a huge benefit for the sake of an ally?

I absolutely don’t believe it!”

"Hiss! So this is a trap for us?"

Rudy, who had never doubted Volantis, took a deep breath.

"Well, maybe... it's not just directed at us."

Jacaerys nodded in reply, then turned and ordered,
"Stone, go inform Coleman.

Let him take people to urge all warships to prepare for sailing.

Tomorrow morning, we will attack with all our forces!"

"A full-scale attack?
Your Majesty, what about the defense of Lanark Island?"

“Hey, why did Beoro ask us to go to the Strait of Atlantis?

Because they are also afraid of wildfire ointment.

Before they figured out the truth about the destruction of the combined fleet, they dared not easily step into the waters of Lanark Island. "

After listening to all of Jakaris' analysis, Stone and the other man admired the King they served from the bottom of their hearts.

After all, Jakaris has never lost a battle since he entered the Stone Archipelago.

And always anticipate the enemy's advance and plan ahead.

Everyone in this world admires the strong, and in their eyes, Jakaris is a well-deserved strong man!
After receiving the order, Stone wanted to turn around and leave, but he suddenly thought of a question.
He immediately asked, "Your Majesty, is our destination the city of Mir?"

"No, someone still owes us a debt, it's time to collect it!"

……

The Strait of Atlantis is a narrow area of ​​water between the island of Atlantis and the disputed lands.

In the past, maritime hubs like this were firmly occupied by the combined fleets of the Three Daughters Kingdom.

Since the battle in the waters of Lanark Island, this maritime hub has been unguarded.

Now it has become a paradise for various low-level pirate forces to plunder merchant ships.

Today, a huge fleet slowly sailed towards the Strait of Atlantis.

More than 40 large warships and more than 100 small and medium-sized warships almost filled the entire sea surface. The small pirates wandering in the strait were immediately scared to death when they saw such a large battle.

The formation of this huge fleet is somewhat strange.

All small warships were placed in the front, and there was a clear distance between them and the medium and large warships in the rear.

This huge fleet was naturally a mixture of the two fleets that left from Rees.

Their formation clearly shows that they are using the small warships as cannon fodder.

This section of the strait usually only takes one day to cross, but it took them three days.

When leaving the Strait of Atlantis, the sea ahead was filled with warships with roaring tiger head flags flying.

It turned out that the Volantis fleet had bypassed the open sea and arrived ahead in advance!

But a magical scene happened. These mortal enemies who had been fighting each other for nearly thirty years actually coexisted peacefully.

Afterwards, the commanders of the two fleets gathered on the Lysian flagship, the Perfumed Garden.

"Welcome Lord Beoro to the Perfume Garden!"

Governor Aloma greeted Beoro with a smile as he boarded the ship with dozens of personal guards.

But Beoro didn't give him a good look and went straight to the point: "Didn't you swear that night that this trap would work?
Why don't I see Jacaerys Velaryon's fleet?"

"Lord Beoro, could it be that he discovered you guys on his dragon in advance while you were circumventing the outer sea?"

“Impossible, we have been paying special attention to the sky during this period.

Not to mention a giant dragon, even a skua cannot escape our sight."

Upon hearing this, Beoro waved his hand and rejected it.

He glanced at the others behind Governor Aloma and continued,
"Or... the Valyrian Covenant we made,

It's just a conspiracy set up by your Kingdom of Three Daughters in order to survive a little longer."

"Bah! A Volantis pirate leader, what are you doing pretending in front of us!

Don't want an alliance? Then keep fighting.

Do you really think we are afraid of you? "

A burly man with a long scar on his face immediately became furious when he heard this and retorted without any politeness.

He is the governor sent by Tyroshi to the united fleet, Cumani.

“Hey, Governor Kumani, don’t be impulsive.

Governor Aloma was right in the Supreme Council.

Whether it's the Kingdom of the Three Daughters or Volantis, we are all descendants of Valyria.

The Targaryens and Velaryons who fled to the west were traitors and cowards.

At times like this, we should really work together to resolve them.

Not to mention, that demon not only has a dragon, but also the flames from hell!"

"Yes, Governor Kumani, calm down."

Seeing this, several others began to persuade Kumani.

"Tsk, what a bullshit Supreme Council!
Our Lord Pachek of Tyrosh was not present at the last meeting in Lys.

I don’t agree! ”

"Governor Kumani!"

Governor Aloma, who had been silent all this time, suddenly turned to Kumani and said,

"Do you know why I want to mix up the soldiers from the three cities?"

"Um?

Didn't you say before that this was to share the losses caused by the fires of hell?"

“Yes, but this is only a secondary reason for you to sail with peace of mind.

And the main reason is because it will be easier to get rid of you Tyroshi traitors!"

puff!

While Governor Aloma was speaking, he took out a sharp dagger from his sleeve.

Then he stabbed it straight into Kumani's heart, who had no time to react.

Tear, tear!
Governor Aloma's action seemed to have triggered some kind of signal.

All the Tyroshi soldiers on the Perfume Garden were stabbed in the back by the Lys and Myr soldiers beside or behind them.

Beoro watched the infighting in the Kingdom of Three Daughters quietly, with a sneer on his face.

In an unintentional move, the entire fleet of Tyroshi soldiers were either killed or captured.

This act of betrayal was over in a very short time!
