Chapter 703: Battle in the Riverlands, internal strife among the Baratheons!
In the riverlands, where battle cries roared, the Lannisters had been fighting the Starks for days.

But facing the powerful Zellingen family, Kevan had no way to stop them and could only let them advance step by step.

Just when Kevan was at a loss, Tywin finally rushed to the front line from King's Landing.

Looking at the soldiers who were constantly collapsing, a trace of coldness appeared on his face.
Because compared to the soldiers of the Zellingen family, many families in the north seem to be much weaker.
"Give up the fight against the Zellingen family and turn around to attack the Starks!"

While explaining to Kevan beside him, Tywin drew the next attack route on the map.

Seeing what Tywin did, Kevan was shocked and said, "Aren't we giving up too much by doing this?"

"If he wants it, I'll give it to him. Besides, this is the Riverlands, not the Western Territory. Do we need to care about what happens?"

Speaking calmly, Tywin quickly formulated a strategy.

However, after the war started in the following days, Zhang Cheng vaguely sensed a problem, because the resistance was slowly decreasing.

As the vanguard, the purpose of the Zähringen family was to open up the situation so that Robb in the rear could advance easily.

But now it seems that the Lannister family in the Westerly Territory has no intention of fighting him to the death!
Thinking of Tywin's next response, Zhang Cheng sneered and said, "Have you completely given up on fighting me? You are such a smart old man!"

As a knight who became famous in Westeros at a young age, Tywin can be said to be a shrewd and calculating man.

But Zhang Cheng is not a pushover. Since he has given up on himself, he will directly attack King's Landing and see who will be anxious then!
Inside the military tent, lights flickered.

Zhang Cheng looked at Bud beside him and immediately asked, "What are the casualties of the soldiers?"

"Currently, more than a thousand people have withdrawn from the battlefield, and six hundred people have died."

Bud couldn't help but become serious when he spoke to Zhang Cheng.
Because the Zellingen family brought less than 5,000 people with them on this trip south, and now one-fifth of them have been killed.

"Damn Tywin, just because you're rich is so great, but you let me suffer such a big loss!"

Zhang Cheng slammed the table, his face full of anger, because the Zelingen family had never suffered such a high number of casualties.

It is conceivable how great the previous resistance was.

"The Lannisters are not doing well either. They have suffered at least 3,000 casualties. However, the Lannisters..."

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Bud quickly explained,

"I know that the Lannisters have more people and more power, but I am not a pushover! Order the fleet to sail south along the sea. I want to attack King's Landing from two sides!"

Slamming the pen in his hand on the table, Zhang Cheng was not unprepared, that is, the naval fleet,
You know, although he has few soldiers on land, he has prepared a large number of troops at sea, nearly 30,000, so he is not afraid of not being able to capture King's Landing.
However, just as Zhang Cheng and Bard were discussing, a messenger ran in and said, "My Lord, something happened, something serious happened. Renly was killed. It is said that it was done by someone sent by Stannis." "What the hell?"

Looking at the messenger in disbelief, Zhang Cheng thought that with the letter he had sent earlier, Stannis and Renly of the Baratheon family would be able to sit down and talk and pull the naughty kid off the Iron Throne first. But he didn't expect that the two brothers would start fighting each other first!

Stannis killed Renly, which means he is with the red witch Melisandre.

Thinking of how Stannis was willing to burn his own daughter to death as a sacrifice to the Lord of Light in order to become king, Zhang Cheng felt his scalp tingling, because this guy is a psychopath!

First there was Mad King Aerys, then there was Emperor Joe, and finally there was Stannis, a brainless man who killed his father and daughter. Zhang Cheng always felt that the Iron Throne was cursed. Why were those who wanted to become king all idiots?
"What do we do now? Should we continue to cooperate with Stannis?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng beside him, Bud couldn't help but ask,
Because what Stannis did now was too outrageous. He actually hired someone to assassinate his own brother. Would anyone recognize such a king?
"Cut off the connection with Stannis. This guy is useless. Let's stay away to avoid being bitten by him!"

Zhang Cheng was inexplicably excited when he thought that he was already notorious, but Stannis was even better than him.
Because it's not him who is wrong, but this world!
With Renly's death, the happiest person in Westeros is undoubtedly Cersei.
After all, he was still worried that Stannis and Renly would come to fight for the inheritance, but he didn't expect that Renly would be killed by Stannis.
And how could the infamous Stannis ascend to the Iron Throne as a kinslayer?
Thinking of this, Cersei immediately felt that her son's throne was secure.

But they had no idea that the war in the riverlands was still going on. Compared to Stannis and Renly, Young Wolf Robb showed extraordinary military means.

First, he led the Northern soldiers to resist Tywin's offensive, and then joined forces with the Tully family to gradually destroy the opponent's plan.

Although the two sides fought back and forth and suffered heavy casualties, it did not hinder Robb's military talent!

Looking at Robb on the battlefield, who was able to stop his plans many times, Tywin's expression became gloomy.

Originally, he was only worried about Zhang Cheng of the Zelingen family, but now it seems that this little wolf cub is also a cause for concern!

But then, something even more troubling happened to Tywin: the Tsheringen family he had let go were running towards King's Landing.
That's right, it's wrong to say that they were galloping all the way, because their more than 4,000 cavalrymen directly abandoned the strategic location of Harrenhal and rode non-stop all the way to King's Landing.

When he saw Zhang Cheng's route, Tywin was stunned for a moment, then he couldn't help but ask seriously: "King's Landing should be able to stop him, right?"

"If there are only these 4,000 people, then there will be no problem, but brother, the Zellingen family has a navy!"

Looking at Tywin, Kevan couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
"navy?"

Turning his head suddenly, Tywin roared, "Quick, tell the Mountain to go back, don't worry about the riverlands, tell him to stop that bastard from entering King's Landing!"

Thinking of the navy that Kevan mentioned, Tywin realized that he had forgotten something. That is, the Zerlingen family defeated the Redwyne family in the Usurper's War and prevented Storm's End from being captured!
When Clegane received Tywin's military order, he was dumbfounded.
Because he was fighting fiercely with the rough guys from the North. If he was asked to fight Zhang Cheng now, wouldn't that be sending him to his death?
After all, the two consecutive beatings had cast a shadow on the Mountain's attitude towards the Zerlingen family.
However, the Mountain could not refuse Tywin's order, so he could only ride on his horse and hurry towards King's Landing.

But the longer the time is on the road, the longer it will take!

After all, if he ran fast and happened to meet Zhang Cheng, he would definitely die. If he ran slowly and King's Landing was destroyed, it would have nothing to do with him.
So, who says that the Mountain is stupid? He does have some brains, although not much, but it is enough!

In King's Landing, although Tyrion the Devil did not go to the Wall, he was eventually brought back by Jaime, and met Shae on the way. It was really fate!
