Chapter 107: Half a year
"Then... Does your Majesty have an answer to the question just now?"
While the bachelor was silent for a moment, he watched the body of the captive who had attacked Visiris been dragged away by the guards, and then raised his head.
Veserys was speechless for a moment, then nodded, he understood what a bachelor meant.
The steps to conquer the war are actually very similar, first using force and then the policy of carrot and stick.
And the two banks of the Upper Lorne River radiated from Andalus as the center are actually the territory that Veselis is opening up.
The land is flat and fertile, suitable for planting crops, but unfortunately there are no mineral resources, so it can only do the most primitive agricultural economy.
And this place is mixed with ethnic groups. There are Andal people and Loyna people. Dothraki people occasionally come here to graze, burn, kill, and looting.
For all these reasons, the three free trade city states surrounding this place did not take action on this place.
Because for businessmen and governors, the benefits that can be obtained here are not large, and it is likely to arouse the vigilance of other free trade city-states.
"I see."
...
Autumn goes to winter, and then spring comes again quietly.
Aegon calendar 290 years.
Since the rebellion broke out in the Iron Islands on the other side of the narrow sea, Baron Greyjoy was crowned king, first burned Lannisport, and then frustrated in the coastal city, damaging his heir Rodlik.
Immediately after the Iron Throne, a large number of troops were assembled, and the newly invested Wang family fleet also participated in the war.
During the Battle of Fairy Island, the Royal Fleet led by Stannis Baratheon collided head-on with the invincible Iron Fleet that had once faced the setting sun.
A fierce naval battle broke out between the two sides, and in the end Stannis defeated the prestigious Iron Fleet by setting up an ambush, allowing Baron Greyjoy's third brother Victarion to taste the taste of failure for the first time.
Baron’s younger brother, Elon Greyjoy, also fell into the sea in this naval battle, and was subsequently captured and imprisoned in Kaiyan City until the end of this rebellious war.
The defeat of the Iron Fleet, the form is already precarious for the Iron Islands.
Then Stannis, as the Minister of Maritime Affairs, conquered Great Wake Island in the name of the king's brother, and the captain of the Royal Forest Guard, the ‘fearless’ Sir Barristan Selmi, led the attack on Old Wake Island.
In the final battle.
King Robert and Duke Ed. Stark personally directed the battle. Portree Castle and King's Harbor on Pike Island have been destroyed by the war.
The catapult bombarded Pike City one after another, eventually smashing the main watchtower and part of the southern wall. Baron’s second son, Maren Greyjoy, also died in the city.
The red-robed monk Soros who believes in the Lord of Light reignited the sword of fire, and entered the city first, followed by Jorah Mormon.
Then the king army occupied Park City, and the crowned King Baron Greyjoy took the crown off again within a year, and bowed his knees to King Robert.
His only son, Theon Greyjoy, who is only nine years old, is also taken hostage by Duke Ed Stark as a adopted son.
The Iron Islands rebellion finally came to an end.
While Westeros was playing lively, Andaloth, who was far away on the continent of Essos, was also not idle.
This is the most precious opportunity for development. When the Iron Throne had no time to notice the situation, he decisively sent troops to seize the opportunity and swept the Loyna settlement on both sides of the Upper Lorne River.
Veserys personally led the troops on the expedition. When the front of the troops was the farthest east, they pointed straight at Novos, came to the banks of the Norn, and even alarmed the monks and soldiers of Novos.
The bearded monks in the temple didn't seem to have expected that the Andalusians would suddenly appear here. They were all surprised, holding an axe and confronting Andalus's army for a few days, and then both sides retreated to the well without breaking the river.
Andaloth walked the farthest along the Upper Lorne River to the Velvet Mountain area when he was heading west.
Reaching the ancient Valyrian road from Pantos to Novos and to Kohor, the caravans along the way were shocked and thought they were about to encounter an accident, but Andalus’ army did not offend and then retreated. .
"Your Majesty."
"This used to be the city of the Loina people, a beautiful place, a city composed of green spaces and flowers, canals and fountains."
Veserys is still riding his white horse.
Following him and riding a horse is a guide named Evan from Roina. He has olive skin and messy black hair.
He was one of the first Loena people to surrender. He witnessed the assassination half a year ago. At that time, Evan thought he was dead, but he never thought that the king did not afflict everyone but let it go. Up them.
And Evan was driven as a prisoner of war in the subsequent battles and charged forward, and was finally canonized as a knight by Viselis himself.
This kind of honor is rare. Weselis has only canonized a few people so far. One of them includes his personal guard, Bessie Cavaliers. Therefore, Evan has always been grateful to Weselis.
"Is it?"
Veserys sat on horseback ~www.NovelMTL.com~ Hearing what Evan said next to him, he turned his head and looked at the surrounding environment.
Step on Step...
The horse's hoof lightly stepped on the stone road and made a sound, and the surrounding soldiers shuttled endlessly.
However, there are ruined walls everywhere that Visiris can see. The history is strong, but it is no longer what it used to be.
It has been more than half a year since the beginning of the army to open up the territory, Andaloth has almost restored the territory of the ancient Andas kingdom.
Except for the area south of the Velvet Mountain, the ‘flat land’ now controlled by the Pantos, this was once the southern frontier of the ancient Andas kingdom, and has not yet been captured.
Now Viselis leads Andalos on an expedition to open up these unowned lands. Not only the Andal people who once migrated to Andalos, the Andal villages that were not moved back then are now completely swallowed by Viselis, including a large number of them. The village of Loyna.
"Here..."
"Hurry up! Don't fall behind!"
The soldiers of the Labor Division’s expedition are now walking through this ancient and abandoned Loinah city-state, inspecting everything in the city.
Now, Targaryen’s soldiers are not only composed of Andals, and a large number of Loyna people have been recovered in the six months of expansion war.
Many of these Roina people have joined the banner of Targaryen. Now the number of people who have gone out to fight for half a year has not decreased, on the contrary, it has become bigger and bigger like a snowball.
At this moment, a horse ran over from a distance.
A Loyna warrior was sitting on horseback, with mottled blood on his body, and it seemed that a few arrows had been inserted.
Then his body swayed and fell from the horse's back.
