Chapter 270 Rebellion farce

"Is everyone here?" Dunstan Drew asked his son, Donald Trump, who entered the cabin.

"Except for the people from Harlaw Island, Kuroshio Island and Pike Island, people from other islands have already arrived." Dennis Zhuogu said with excitement: "Even the Gubler family of Great Wake Island, The Spars and Merlins are here. That bitch’s behavior in the past few years has completely pissed off the leaders of the Iron Islands. Even Great Wyk Island, which used to support him, has rebelled against her. This time we will definitely win. ”

Old Dunstan also had an excited smile on his face. He stood up, led his son out of the cabin, boarded the boat, and moved towards the large sailboat beside him.

More than a hundred large and small ships have docked in the waters of Ironborn Bay. Although the number of these ships is much smaller than the number of ships controlled by Asha, not all ships have docked next to Asha. For example, Belle, the sea dog who is now regarded as Asha's loyal dog, has already led people to Bear Island. Now there are only more than fifty ships around Asha, and there are less than 3,000 warriors loyal to her.

When Old Dunstan came to the ship where the meeting was being held, the lords of the Iron Islands who arrived first had already started talking. It could be felt in their roars that they were all very excited because they all saw the overthrow of Asha Greyjoy. Opportunity to dominate.

Pushing the door and entering the cabin, Old Dunstan saw the patriarchs of the Gubler family, the Spa family and the Merlin family on Great Wyk Island leading their sons to stand beside the door. The patriarch of the Stonehouse family on Old Wyk Island was talking with them. Erin Oakwood quarreled. The Tawnies of Oakmont Island, the Sutcliffe family of Salt Cliff Island, and the Sandley family stood aside to watch the show. Gilbert Farwin, the patriarch of the Farwin family, and his son Gyles Farwin was huddled in a corner of the room, as if completely absent. .

At this moment, Old Dunstan discovered that the situation seemed to be somewhat different from what he had just guessed. The quarrel between Sylvie Stonehouse, the patriarch of the Stonehouse family, and Erin Oakwood seemed to be about to turn into a battle. Both sides put their hands on their weapons.

"Enough! Our current enemy is the bitch in Pike City, not a companion fighting side by side!" Old Dunstan quickly walked between the two people who were arguing and shouted loudly.

"Companion? I will never become a companion with such a duplicitous guy. Either I will join in this battle, or he will join. I don't want to worry about this guy's betrayal when the battle is in full swing!" Sylvie Stone House pointed at Erin Oakwood unceremoniously and said.

It’s no wonder Sylvie had such a reaction. In the past few years, Erin Oakwood, as Asha’s hyena, had done many excessive things to various lord families present, such as restricting the scope of each lord’s fishing grounds. , such as paying additional taxes and fees, etc.

But what Elin did to the Stonehouse family was the most egregious. He directly stole Sylvie's daughter as his salt concubine, and almost destroyed the Stonehouse family's village.

Facing such an enemy, how could Sylvie be willing to let him become a comrade fighting alongside her.

"I also think this guy is untrustworthy." The head of the Gubler family said solemnly: "He has always been Asha Greyjoy's mad dog, helping that bitch to bite people everywhere, but now he suddenly changed his attitude and quarreled with us. It’s so strange to work together, I even suspect that our gathering is just a trap set by him and Asha.”

Others also expressed doubts about Ellin's identity.

Faced with the accusations from everyone, Aylin did not explain, because he knew very well that his explanations would not have any effect. He just turned his head and looked at Old Dunstan.

Old Dunstan stood up and said, "I can guarantee that he really stands with us."

Old Dunstan's words made everyone quiet down. If among the lords of the Iron Islands, who hated Asha Greyjoy the most, it was Dunstan, because not long ago, Asha directly deprived her of Asha Greyjoy. He also took the title of lord of Old Wake Island from the Zhuogu family, and also destroyed a plundering fleet of the Zhuogu family. Not to mention the thirty longships lost, even Dennis Zhuogu, the heir of Old Dunstan, All died from this.

Since old Dunstan, who hates Asha so much, can vouch for Erin Oakwood, it proves that Erin Oakwood is trustworthy.

"Why did you betray Asha?" Someone asked Erin Oakwood curiously.

"Because the end is coming, there are people who are more worthy of following!" As Erin Oakwood spoke, he reached out and touched the pendant around his neck. This pendant is a badge similar to that carved from crystal. On top of the badge is a The spiral pattern, if Lind were here, he would definitely be able to recognize this spiral pattern as the spiral pattern around the Altar of the White Walkers back then.

Seeing Erin Oakwood's appearance as a sage, everyone showed disdain on their faces, but they did not pay too much attention to this, but asked old Dunstan about his specific attack plan.

Then Old Dunstan told his plan, and everyone knew why Erin Oakwood was standing here.

Old Dunstan's plan was simple and direct, which was to use Erin Oakwood's position beside Asha to divert Asha's fleet at the Pike City dock. They would lead the team to attack Pike City directly. As long as they captured Asha, Then her fleet will become a mess, and those who are still hesitant to resist Asha's tyranny will gather and fight with them.

"Can you mobilize Asha's fleet?" someone questioned.

"I can't, but it can." Erin Oakwood took out an instruction from his arms and handed it to the questioner.

The content of this order was signed by Asha personally, which was to ask the fleet to assist Erin Oakwood in clearing a secret smuggling port on Old Wyk Island. The owner of this port was none other than Old Dunstan.

After the order was passed through everyone's hands, it returned to Erin Oakwood's hands. He put the order back into his pocket and said: "I will move the ship tomorrow night, and my people will be there by then." The lighthouse at the pier gives a signal. You can land directly at the pier and attack Pike City. Don't waste time by looting the town on the way. Remember that our goal is to kill Asha."

Afterwards, everyone discussed the details, and Erin Oakwood hurriedly left, returning to Pyke Island to mobilize Asha's fleet for the sneak attack.

Everyone stood on the bow of the ship, watching Erin Oakwood's longship quickly sail across the sea and disappear into the sea mist in the distance.

"I don't trust this guy!" Gilbert Farwin, the lord of Lone Lantern Castle who had been staying in the corner since boarding the ship and said nothing, suddenly said.

"I don't trust him either." The person who echoed Gilbert was Dunstan Sr.'s second son and current heir, Donald Drum.

Others also expressed their distrust of Erin Oakwood. Although Old Dunstan knew very well that Erin Oakwood was a trustworthy person at the moment, he could not tell others, so he could only Asked: "In this case, what do you think?"

"Father, you can let me monitor him." Donner suggested.

"Yeah! This is a good idea." Everyone nodded.

But Gilbert Farwin said in a deep voice: "Old Dunstan, it's not that I don't trust your son's ability, but this matter is really important. After all, Erin Oakwood is related to whether we can succeed this time. I'm afraid if he stares at Erin Oakwood alone..." As he said that, he showed a look of distrust and said solemnly: "It might be safer if I go with Gales."

Everyone felt that Gilbert's approach was prudent. Although Donner looked angry and thought Gilbert's behavior was an insult to him, in the face of everyone's approval, he had no way to refuse and could only agree to go with Farwin and his son. Together we go to the small town of Pike City to spy on Erin Oakwood.

According to the plan, everyone's fleet began to disperse and secretly approached the waters near Pike Island. The next night, the generals gathered together and, under the cover of night, approached a small bay near the town of Pike Island. .

"Damn! There is indeed something wrong with that guy Erin Oakwood. The fleet has not been transferred at all." Sylvie Stonehouse looked at the words given by the person who was standing on the top of the mountain in the distance and responsible for monitoring Pike Island. Signal, his face was extremely gloomy, and he cursed.

Old Dunstan said in a deep voice: "Sylvie, don't let your hatred affect your mind. It's still early and the agreed time has not yet arrived."

Old Dunstan's words calmed down the restless emotions around him, but this quietness was only temporary. As time went by, not only Sylvie Stonehouse, but also other lords became restless.

After all, what they are doing now is about losing their heads. Asha Greyjoy has been looking for excuses to deal with them all these years. Once the news leaks out, she will have an excuse. With her character, it is absolutely impossible to let it go. Of their family.

Just when their impatience had reached its peak, they all saw the flash of fire on the top of the mountain in the distance, sending them the signal they wanted.

"Let's go!" Old Dunstan suppressed his habit of giving a speech and ordered very briefly.

The rebel fleet, already impatient, quickly rowed out of the small bay and headed towards the town under Pike City.

Soon they came into sight of the town and the lighthouse next to it, the signal on the lighthouse flashing exactly as Erin Oakwood had given it.

The town of Pyke Island has more than doubled in the past two years under Asha's orders, and the dock has become three to four times larger than before. There are docks two miles along the coast. Such a large dock can easily dock two hundred people. A long ship.

In normal times, Asha Greyjoy's Sea Banshee fleet would be docked at the pier, but apart from some fishing boats, there is no longer a single longship visible at the pier today.

In addition, activities in the town stopped early because of Asha's series of prohibitions. All the doors and windows of every house were closed, and they did not dare to run out to play, because the punishment for those who violated the forbidden forest last time has not yet ended. Some of them have even died in the mines, so no one dares to ignore any of Asha's instructions.

It was also good for the rebels not to be blocked by the residents of the town. When their ship docked at the dock according to the arrangements of Erin's men, the soldiers on the ship passed through the town without any hindrance and headed towards the Pike City Castle. Rushed over.

According to the help provided by Aylin, he will have his men get rid of the guards on the outer city walls and towers at night. After they pass the city wall, they will rush directly to the main fort. Only by occupying the main fort can they be able to completely defeat the enemy in a short time. Get rid of Asha's men left in the castle.

Aelin did deal with the guards on the city walls and towers as agreed. When they rushed to the city gate, they could see Aelin's men standing next to a pile of corpses, guiding them on the way to the main castle.

The lords led their men and rushed over without hesitation. As the gate of the main castle got closer and closer, they felt that victory was in hand and became more and more excited. Even when they crossed the long bridge leading to the main castle, they no longer felt anxious about it. Worrying that their whereabouts would be exposed, they all made various shouts and rushed into the fortress.

However, when they rushed into the fortress, they were all confused by the scene in front of them. They all stopped and looked around, because they found that there was no one in the castle, let alone the guards, not even the servants. No.

Just when no one understood what was going on, the outer walls of the castle behind them, the towers and other buildings in the castle were all lit with torches, illuminating the entire outer wall of Pike City. It was bright, and where the torches illuminated there were piles of warriors wearing heavy armor standing neatly. Among the warriors, the figure of Asha Greyjoy was particularly eye-catching.

However, when everyone who turned back to the main gate from the main castle saw the long bridge across the bridge, their eyes did not fall on Asha at this moment, but on Donald Drogu and Gilbert Farwin beside Asha. On father and son.

At this time, a soldier escorted Erin Oakwood out and beheaded him in front of everyone.

Everyone knew at this moment that they had been tricked.

"Enter Pike City and hold on to Pike City. We haven't lost yet!" Old Dunstan shouted.

Everyone also understood that they couldn't get through if they rushed out at this moment. Even if they could get over, judging from the fire on the pier, their ship might not be saved. Now they could only stick to Pike City and rely on Pike City and Ah Shah negotiates.

As a result, people who were still outside the city hid in the city one after another, and sealed the main castle gate, moved all the things that could be moved behind the door, and blocked the door.

Before these people could calm down, the person who was checking Asha's movement at the castle's observation window suddenly pointed at the sky and shouted loudly: "There is something in the sky!"

As the shouts reached the castle, everyone went to the windows and looked at the sky.

Because there were no clouds in the sky, the moonlight easily illuminated everything in the sky. Everyone could clearly see a group of huge flying monsters rushing towards them in the distance.

"Dragon, it's a giant dragon!" Someone immediately shouted in horror, and everyone panicked.

When those flying monsters flew to Pike City, they did not swoop down and attack the people in the castle. Instead, they flew over Pike City. However, while flying over, some things that looked like clay pots fell from the sky. .

The green flame is like a blooming flower, blooming in Pike City. Even in the dark sea in the distance, this beautiful flower can be clearly seen.
