Game of Thrones: Roar of the Dragon

Chapter 57 You still don’t understand me!

Chapter 57 You still don’t understand me!
Before the gate of the northwest section of Tyro's city wall was breached, the leader of the Rangers, Saba, knew that the game was over when he heard his men report that the Unsullied had climbed the northern section of the city wall.

"Leave a few teams to use those crossbows to defend against the enemy, and the rest of you should retreat with me!"

"Use a crossbow? Captain, that's to prevent a giant dragon from attacking..."

Upon hearing this, a ranger team leader looked up at the emerald dragon that had just flown high above his head from the sea.

"What the hell is a surprise attack!

The group of slave soldiers in the north, whose number was reduced by half, would definitely not be able to stop the Unsullied.

After they occupy the city wall, the dragon can directly enter the city through the gap!

Stop talking nonsense, retreat now!"

Saba replied angrily, turned around and fled towards the stone stairs in the middle section of the city wall.

Now that the captain has fled, why would his captains hesitate?

Except for a few rear guard teams that were forced to stay behind, the rest of the mercenaries evacuated in an orderly manner according to the team organization.

A siege cannon fodder who felt the pressure on his head suddenly reduced took the opportunity to climb the siege ladder. As soon as he jumped onto the battlement, he saw the enemy fleeing.

So the cannon fodder was cheered up and wanted to give chase excitedly.

Boom!
A loud bowstring sound was heard, and the cannon fodder was instantly pierced through the chest by a thick crossbow arrow.

He was carried flying backwards by the powerful kinetic energy carried by the thick and long crossbow arrow.

After piercing through another unlucky guy who had just climbed up the parapet, it fell to the ground about ten meters away from the city wall.

The long crossbow arrow, as thick as a spear, was inserted diagonally into the ground.

The two cannon fodders hanging on the guns struggled a few times as if they were about to burst into life, and then stopped moving, turning into two strangely shaped corpses.

This large crossbow has no apparent killing power against Womax.

But now if used to shoot people, its power is simply like overkill!

A wave of artillery and crossbow attacks from the middle section of the city wall directly shocked the siege cannon fodder.

Seeing that there was no rock above his head, the arrow fell.

These cannon fodders who just wanted to survive simply hung on the siege ladders, neither advancing nor retreating.

The few remaining ranger squads took the opportunity to escape from the city wall.

In contrast to the middle section of the city wall that was directly abandoned, the fighting on the southern section of the city wall was particularly fierce.

But this group of free mercenaries were not fighting against the cannon fodder army, but against the slave soldiers who were supervising the battle.

This is the difference between the Seven Kingdoms and the Nine Free Cities.

The armies of the nobles of the seven kingdoms were very expensive, after all, they had to provide food for the men and horses, as well as various weapons and armor.

But the loyalty of the army is beyond doubt.

In rare cases, entire armies could even die along with their lords.

The Free Cities usually do not need to maintain any army other than cheap slave soldiers.

When the need arises, as long as one is willing to spend money, thousands of mercenary groups and free mercenaries can be summoned at any time.

But their loyalty can be fully seen from the siege of Tyroshi.

After all, they are just here to make money, why would they really risk their lives for you!
Hooray, hooray!
As they were fighting for their lives on the southern section of the city wall, a huge shadow, foreshadowing death, enveloped them.

After breaking through the gate under the northern section of the city wall, Jacaerys immediately took off on his dragon, ready to tear through Tyrosh's defenses along the city wall.

But who would have known that the middle section of the city wall was neither defended nor attacked, and there was no living person to be seen except the corpses.

He had no intention of leaving behind any large crossbows for his own army to use.

Directly let Womax destroy the large crossbow on the city wall, and then continue to spit dragon flames and fly towards the southern section of the city wall.

Hey!
The deadly dragon flame breath suddenly exploded in the southern section of the city wall, and the orange-red dragon flame spread out with high temperature heat waves.

Living people within the attack range of the dragon flame will be directly turned into corpses, and the corpses will turn into charred ashes.

Bang bang bang!
These panicked free mercenaries and slave soldiers actually jumped out to avoid the dragon flames.

The ones who were still a little sensible would jump out of the city wall.

Because there are so many corpses piled up below, if you jump accurately, you may only suffer minor injuries.

Those who were completely demented subconsciously wanted to flee back into the city walls. Falling from a height of fifteen or sixteen meters onto the stone pavement inside the city, even if they were seriously injured but not dead, they would not survive in this era.

Womax's Dragon Flame does not have the magical function of making teammates unharmed.

Batches of siege fodder who had climbed onto the southern section of the city wall while the free mercenaries were in internal strife were also turned into charcoal by the dragon flame attack.

Looking back at the burning eastern city wall, Jacaerys nodded with satisfaction, then controlled Womax to fly towards the port of Tyrosh.

As a free city-state with a superior geographical location, the port of Tyrosh is crowded with merchant ships of all sizes in addition to its own fleet.

Now a small number of ships, seeing the bad situation, have set sail, trying to escape from Tyrosh.

It was impossible for Jakaris and his dragon to intercept them all.

But he knew that Maharaja Pachek and others who had led troops to the northern city for rescue had definitely not had time to leave.

It does!

Maharaja Pachek easily found his relatives who were taken away from the northern city by the captain of his personal guard.

But as they fled to the southwest port, they encountered Jacaerys's army pouring in from the gate in the northern section of the city wall.

Without any hesitation, Lord Pachec left behind several hundred slave soldiers to cover their retreat and fled first.

But as the news of the fall of the city spread quickly,
Because of the fire in the northern city, merchants, civilians, and slaves gathered in the southern city immediately rioted.

Maharaja Pachek and his men were like being stuck in a quagmire, unable to move forward.

Fortunately, we were lucky enough to meet the ranger group led by Saba.

After making a promise of a large sum of money, Maharaja Pachek and his men headed towards the port under the protection of the mercenary group.

Hooray, hooray!
The terrifying sound of dragon wings breaking through the air came from the sky behind them. Lord Pachek, Saba and others looked up.

I saw the giant emerald dragon, which was incomparably beautiful in the eyes of the Tyroshi people, flying towards me from the direction of the eastern city wall.

There was no threat of large crossbows in the city, and the giant emerald dragon flew so low that people on the street could even see the dragon scales on its belly.

Since the crowd can see the dragon clearly, it means that the dragon rider on the dragon's back can also see them clearly.

Oops!

Saba looked at the Emerald Dragon that flew over his head, then flapped its wings and turned around in the sky ahead.

They immediately understood that the enemy's target was either Lord Pachek or their mercenary group whose combat power was well preserved.

After quickly looking around, Saba suddenly pretended to be panicked and shouted, "Why are you still standing there?

Run! Demons and dragons are coming to devour souls!"

The captains and mercenaries around reacted and immediately started shouting in unison.

Wow!
The crowd who were so shocked by seeing the Emerald Dragon up close that they forgot to run away exploded and all fled frantically towards the southwest port.

Saba commanded the mercenary group to escape to an almost deserted street on the right.

In the sky, Jacaerys, riding on a dragon saddle, kept his eyes on his target.

There was no way out. Who asked Lord Pachek to escape with a fully armed and conspicuous mercenary group?
Hmm, that should be the East City District of Tyrosh.

Jacaerys, who had collected maps and information about Tyrosh before the war, immediately understood their purpose.

Dongcheng District is a handicraft area centered on Tyroshi's specialty, the 'purple conch', and is the most important economic pillar besides maritime trade.

There are also various temples and shrines dedicated to different gods in this area.

On weekdays, even ruffians would not commit crimes in this area.

You can say that!
Destroying the East City would be equivalent to destroying half of Tyrosh's wealth and offending all the religions, big and small, in Essos.

Saba's move was because he was certain that Jakaris would not dare to control the dragon to attack at will, and wanted to escape by taking advantage of the complex terrain of this area.

After adjusting the direction, Womax quickly flapped his wings and flew over the eastern city of Tyrosh.

Jacaerys looked at the almost empty streets, hiding behind buildings.

He said to himself: "It seems that you still don't know me well enough!

Dracarys!
