Chapter 93 Raven, Dragon

Clay and the old man discussed it all night long. In the end, there was no place to put the empty wine bottle on the table between the grandfather and grandson.

Even so, the two people were still arguing enthusiastically. The arrival of the dragon meant that many of the family's arrangements had to be completely changed. As the patriarch, this was something the old man had to consider.

Clay asked the old man how he planned to face the Stark family if he actually flew over Westeros with a dragon in the future. This question made the old man purse his lips and remain silent for a long time. Finally, the old man slowly uttered a sentence:

"I am a Mandalay first, and then a Stark vassal..."

After understanding what this meant, Clay never mentioned it again. Obviously, this was not a pleasant topic.

The old man and Clay finally reached a consensus that Clay needed to hatch the dragon as soon as possible before the Mandalay family army went to the King's Road to join the Winterfell army.

During this period, the old man will directly raise troops to defeat the Three Sisters Islands, and Clay's dragon will be placed there to grow.

According to the old man's original intention, Clay should stay in White Harbor, followed by the Three Sisters Islands, and ignore the battlefield in the south, but Clay rejected the old man's idea.

After making great military exploits in the south, returning to the north with countless honors, and then showing the dragon card, Clay didn't know what the adults in the north would think.

However, if he does not participate in this war, later, whether the northern army fails or succeeds, he hides in White Harbor and suddenly makes a dragon, there will be no other way except being regarded as an evil dragon.

Clay didn't want to use dragon flames to subdue these rebellious northern adults, not at all.

…

The next day, when Clay came out of the study swaying and smelling of alcohol, a letter from Winterfell instantly sobered him up.

Just after walking out of the study, Clay hurriedly turned around and pushed the door open.

A letter from Winterfell. Robb Stark, the young master of the Stark family, gathered his vassals in Winterfell, assembled an army, and headed south to the Neck to demand an explanation for his father's experience.

More importantly, they must find Lord Eddard Stark, the Duke of the North, who is in crisis before Lord Tywin.

Half an hour later, the family meeting was held again. This time, all actions were no longer castles in the air, because the arrival of this recruitment order meant that the North had declared war on the Iron Throne.

To be more precise, he declared war on the Lannister King on the Iron Throne, and of course, Lord Tywin of the Westerlands.

Joffrey was not Robert, and he didn't even have a hair of the prestige of his father. If he hadn't had an extremely powerful grandfather, Lord Tywin Lannister, the iron chair under her butt would have belonged to someone else long ago. .

With his level, all the soldiers in the Western Region would be useless to him.

Clay didn't know what was going on in the Riverlands now, but he didn't think Lord Tywin would give up this good opportunity to attack the Riverlands.

The incident happened suddenly, and the Riverlands were not prepared at all. Although the Riverlands' military strength was weak, if the Tully family of Riverrun summoned vassals, given the population size of the Riverlands, 20,000 people could always be drawn out.

If the Lannister army attacks again at that time, although they will win in the end, the process will be much more tortuous.

"Lord Eddard's son, Robb Stark, has given the Mandalay family a recruitment order, but we don't need to lead the army to Winterfell. The army can just go west and meet at the King's Road."

The old man's words were the beginning of this meeting.

Willis asked his brother:

"Wendel, how is the army gathering going?"

Wendel, who had been staying in the military camp and hurried back, answered his brother's question quickly:

"They are all young men. There are still too few veterans. It is impossible for us in White Harbor to send out all the veterans. Now, counting all those who can move in the military camp, um... 2,400 people."

Wendel shook his head with regret and said helplessly:

"The time is too short. We only know one or two days before Winterfell. In this short time, it is still a problem to accurately distribute the equipment to the soldiers. If we have two months and a little training, the situation will be much better. "

All the members participating in the meeting seemed to understand the problem Wendel said, and no one refuted it.

"Try your best. It will take time to assemble the army in Winterfell. According to experience, even if Robb Stark is in a hurry, it will take at least nearly a month for each family to arrive before heading south. We still have time."

Having participated in the Usurper's War, the old man has valuable experience in these matters.

Hearing this, Wendel was slightly relieved. Most of these recruited soldiers turned out to be farmers, fishermen, free riders, and even small businessmen.

If they directly compete with the Lannister standing army without training, although the Northerners are more brave than the Seven Kingdoms, the exchange ratio will be ugly.

One month younger is just one month younger. Wendel compressed the time to improve the strength of these new recruits.

However, Earl Wiman's next words frustrated his plan. The old man said to him directly:

"Wendel, leave the training to Malone. You led the troops and Lord Stannis to kill the pirates. This time, I want you to bring all the warships in the family to knock down the pirate den in the Three Sisters Islands. .”

This order, which he had not communicated with anyone before, immediately stunned Wendel. Of course he knew where the Three Sisters Islands were, but why would his father let him take it down?

"Knock it down, and then seal off the entire Biting Bay. No ship can come in. I'll sink every one I see."

Although Wendel was puzzled by Earl Wiman's order, as a pure soldier, he was still prepared to resolutely implement his father's order.

"Father, if we do this, will Winterfell have an answer?"

Willis raised his concerns. Interestingly, he and Wendel did not consider the feelings of the ruling family on the island at all. It is estimated that in their hearts, those people were not nobles at all, but pirates.

Killing pirates, adhering to the will of the seven gods, what kind of psychological construction is needed?

Regarding his son's question, Earl Weiman waved his hand. Obviously, this was not a too serious problem.

"The White Harbor Fleet will protect the security of the east coast of the North during the war. This reason is enough."

As for the west coast, the White Harbor fleet has no choice but to bypass the entire Westeros, right?

After the old man finished speaking this question, he looked at his grandson.

"Clay, please take care of your own affairs during this period. Leave the top room of Poseidon Tower to you. When the army is assembled, you will be their commander-in-chief, and Sir Malone will go with you."

Clay understood what the old man meant. The old man asked him to complete the hatching of the dragon eggs at the place where the grass decoction was synthesized. Father Wendel would lead his troops to wipe out the Three Sisters Islands, and then Clay would send the dragon there to be raised for a period of time. .

This is a plan for small dragons that cannot fly too far. If the dragon grows up and can fly out of the Bite Bay, then Clay will ride it and the dragon will come to Westeros.
