Chapter 518: The 2nd Conquest War
The Aegon calendar is 294 years, the second year of the new calendar.
Since the day Viserys was crowned on the Iron Throne, the calendar has changed from the Aegon calendar to the new year.
Now it is the second year of the new calendar. After less than half a year of rest and recuperation, the Targaryen army has cleared away exhaustion and embarked on the journey with a refreshing spirit.
But the aristocrats in the West, Valley, Riverland, and Stormlands, which represent the traditional aristocratic power of the Seven Kingdoms, will naturally not be captured with their hands.
They called on the people in the territory to join the army and promoted Visiris’s so-called ‘atrocities’, almost portraying him as the second mad king, making the people in these places anxious.
Indeed, in the eyes of these nobles, Veselis's madness is more prevalent than his father.
After all, the Mad King only burns a few people to play, and what Veselis wants to burn is the rules and system that Westeros has maintained for thousands of years.
How can a person like this not be a "tyrant"?
So the name of "Tyrant" Viselis I spread throughout other regions except Hejiandi and King's Landing.
The people of Junlin and Hejiandi may have heard of such a name, but they scoffed at it.
They don't know if His Majesty the King is a tyrant, but many of the coalition soldiers who surrendered after the Battle of Runaway City later contributed to the fact that they were truly divided into their own fields. This is obvious to all.
Instead of just renting the land of Lord Lord for free.
There are even many soldiers who have been canonized as knights. Coupled with owning their own land, they can give their shabby thatched cottage a resounding name, and then jokingly claim to be the "lord of two acres of land."
These changes that have remained unchanged since ancient times are seen by all the villagers.
Therefore, although they have not seen Visiris, let alone whether he is a tyrant, at least he has given people hope that the land is the hope of ordinary people.
However, in areas other than Hejiandi and King's Landing, it is absolutely forbidden to talk about Viselis' achievements. They are still publicizing the name of the tyrant, and any voice promoting Viselis will be arrested.
There is even an even more wicked saying that Veselis eats a virgin every day, the kind of chewing alive.
And his dragon is also evil, and he also needs a lot of human flesh to feed every day, otherwise, why is that black dragon so much bigger than the other two dragons?
However, this turbid and clear split on Westeros Continent will eventually be unified. If you divide for a long time, you must unite, and if you are together, you must divide. There is no room for relaxation of this contradiction between the two sides.
The leader of the Conservative Aristocratic Party or the rebels was Stannis Baratheon, because he was the eldest brother of King Robert, the Duke of Longstone Island, and the nominal heir to the Iron Throne, but he was imprisoned in King’s Landing. Without his elder brother dying for a day, he will never be crowned king.
...
With the ringing of the bell of King's Landing in the New Year, there is no time for the past half a month.
A message about the Second War of Conquest was issued in the Red Fort, and the cloud of total war enveloped the continent.
The Iron Throne warned for the last time all the nobles who were ready to resist...surrender or die.
They don't have a third option, there is no possibility of negotiation, or they choose to kneel, otherwise they will guard the glory of the old nobleman and turn into fly ashes with their castle.
The warning of the Iron Throne spread quickly throughout the seven nations. Everyone knew that the final war was coming. People were talking about it, some were indifferent, some worried, some excited...there were fears and expectations.
The people are mostly numb. They have experienced too many wars. Businessmen are worried about the political instability of the Seven Kingdoms and the high risks of operation. Although the chaos is an opportunity, it is also a risk.
The bottom soldiers of the Targaryen army are excited about the coming war.
Because under the current promotion system, only war, and only war, can make them live a better life.
The many commanders of the Golden Regiment also expected that the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms would be hard bones.
In this way, it is convenient for them to break through the castles of these people in the future, kill these nobles, plunder their wealth, and finally take their place.
There are too many nobles in the Seven Kingdoms. If you don’t kill a lot of them, how can you leave them free?
Especially their hometown. Their hometown is already occupied by other people. How can they regain their hometown without killing them?
On the eve of this war, it seems that only the traditional aristocrats who are ready to defeat the stubborn resistance are worried.
...
Woo—
On the eve of dawn, the horn on the head of Junlin City sounded.
Hu~
A huge figure flew across the sky, making a low roar, shaking its wings, sweeping the wind, and flying into the distance.
The gate of King's Landing opened wide, and a Targaryen army was ready to go.
rush rush rush—
They had bright armor and sharp swords and spears. They drove out of King's Landing in neat steps, and then rushed to the distance holding the flag of the Targaryen three-headed fire dragon.
rumbling—
And the heavy iron hoofs of the Dothrakis also stepped on the ground, and the warriors on horsebacks howled excitedly.
Although King's Landing is a big city, the Dothraki people are a people on the grassland. They still prefer their previous life, but they can't defy the order of Qilong Kao.
Although the prairie knights are wild and unruly, they absolutely carry out the orders of Kao, and their core goal in this battle is the high court and the old town.
The Second War of Conquest was divided into three armies. The first armies were led by Prince Oberon of Dorn, who had already set off in advance and are now deeply mired in the battle of the West.
Oberon had the help of the dragon knight in the past two months, and his niece, Renesse, rode Rego and set fire everywhere in the mountains of the west.
caused a great blow to the Lannister army, UU reading www.uukanshu.com did not know how many western towns and castles were burned down, and the people were displaced and miserable.
However, the Duke of Taiwen is scheming and prudent, he is naturally not a person who gives up lightly.
He used rumors to portray Veserys as a demon, coupled with the invasion and atrocities of the Targaryen army, the dragon flying in the sky, Oberon burned 20,000 men of the West in the Red Lake, these Various successes aroused the fighting spirit of the nobles, soldiers and people in the West.
Tywen led the all-willed West Army, with the help of the mountainous complex terrain, tenaciously sniping the invasion of the Targaryen army, causing a lot of trouble to Oberon.
Therefore, the two sides are temporarily stalemate together, like two clever hunters, both waiting for the final chance to kill the opponent.
The second army is the golden regiment led by Viselis himself.
With tens of thousands of soldiers under his command, he is the main force of the Targaryen family.
He led the army to fight against the remnants of the Baratheon dynasty, the nominal leader of the Conservative Aristocratic Party, and Stannis Baratheon, the Duke of Stormlands.
As the prestigious commander of the seven nations, Stannis heard that the Targaryen army was rushing towards Wind's Rest. He did not choose to sit and wait for death, but instead actively sent forward troops to fight.
Because Stannis participated in the Battle of Running City, he knew that facing the dragon, defending the castle was only a dead end.
So the vanguard of the two sides broke out in a fierce battle near the Wende River.
