Chapter 7 Battle of Camp Attack

"That's enough." Jaime Lannister grabbed the wine glass from Tyrion's hand, "You have been drinking since you came back here in the evening. It is already late at night, do you still plan to drink until tomorrow morning? ?”

"I haven't had a drink for more than half a year," Tyrion, who was blushing, stepped on the soft carpet in the tent and swayed from side to side. "Let me drink to my heart's content today." After that, he He let out a long wine burp, then staggered to the table, ready to get another wine glass.

"I said, enough!" Jaime covered the cup Tyrion was about to take with his hand. But Tyrion bypassed Jaime's hand, picked up the other one, filled it with wine from a flagon, raised the glass to Jaime, and drank it down again.

"You are running away, Tyrion," James saw this and stopped grabbing Tyrion's wine glass. "What happened? You always had to tell me."

"I" Tyrion was exposed by his brother. He didn't know how to answer for a moment, but the movements of his hands stopped.

"Ed Stark said you are not in Castle Black." James asked proactively.

"We." Of course Tyrion knew who James was referring to by 'you'. He felt that his throat was too dry, so he quickly poured a sip of wine into his mouth.

"Did he lie?" James didn't know why, and suddenly lost control of his emotions. He stepped forward and grabbed Tyrion's shoulders. "Actually, he caught you in Castle Black, but he only took you south with him. , but left Joffrey and Tommen as hostages in Winterfell, they are still safe in Winterfell, right?!" He shook Tyrion.

"Forgive me, Jaime," Tyrion did not look at Jaime's expectant eyes, "I did not return to Castle Black. After the Battle of the Long Lake, our wildling army was almost completely wiped out by Stark, and they returned to the Great Wall from the Long Lake. The road was full of northern cavalry,

I have no way to return to Castle Black and can only escape to the south." What he told was the truth, but the truth also made him feel guilty, so he added, "I admit that I was a bit lucky at the time, because the other party was Shi Lord Tucker, I don’t think Tommen and the others will be harmed.”

"So you don't know what happened at Castle Black?"

"Well," Tyrion nodded with difficulty, "but I asked Lord Stark afterwards, and he told me that he did not find Joffrey and Tommen in Castle Black." He paused and added cautiously. , "I don't think Lord Stark is lying."

"So what happened to you after the Battle of Long Lake? When did you fall into the hands of Ed Stark?" James' mood became even worse, and he asked loudly.

"After the Battle of Long Lake, in order to avoid the pursuit of the light cavalry, I fled south and rested in a small fishing village on the east bank of Long Lake. Perhaps those northerners did not expect that I would follow the savage army. Well, when they were searching for the remnants of the wildlings, they didn't even inquire about the whereabouts of a dwarf alone.

Although I was badly dressed at the time, because the free folk had a tradition of killing any newborn dwarfs, I did not arouse anyone's suspicion and successfully evaded capture.

After that, I first found a boat and asked them to take me to the southernmost end of Long Lake, and then I fled all the way south. The original trip went smoothly until I was captured by a group of local frog eaters when I passed by the Neck. Dedicated to the lord of Greywaterwatch.

They regarded me as a jester. To be honest, I am not very good at pleasing people, but fortunately I learned quickly and quickly became a qualified jester. In fact, as a dwarf, I am qualified in my own right. Half done.

In short, I stayed in the Neck for several months, until Lord Eddard Stark's army moved south. When they passed Graywater Watch, they came to the Reed family as a guest. I took the initiative to reveal my identity to him and asked him to capture me. "

After hearing Tyrion's words, Jaime felt his breath hitch. Although he had already been mentally prepared to face this reality, even though he felt from the beginning that Ed Stark was not a person who would lie on such an issue. But the fact that Tyrion fell into the hands of Eddard always kept him hopeful. He expected that Eddard would catch Tyrion at Castle Black, in which case Joffrey and Tommen would also be captured by him. Walk.

But now, this glimmer of expectation has been shattered.

Where can Joffrey and Tommen go after leaving Castle Black? That is the Great Wall of Despair! Where could they escape with their two and a half-year-old children? What will those savages do to them? Thinking of this, James was heartbroken.

"In addition." Tyrion waited for James to calm down for a long time before speaking again, "The reason why I didn't dare to reveal my identity to the Reed family before meeting Lord Stark is because I was watching in Gray Water. Something very scary has arrived.”

"Something terrible?"

"It's magic, magic is reviving." Tyrion seemed a little scared when he said this.

"Magic?" James repeated the word in surprise. While instinctively feeling ridiculous, he also remembered the letter the academy sent to the major families last year, which mentioned that the glass candles in the academy were rekindled. Possibly a sign of the resurgence of magic.

"What exactly did you see?" James asked immediately.

"They can communicate with animals, and they also..." Tyrion was mid-sentence when he was suddenly interrupted by an intruding knight.

"Something has happened, Ser Jaime! There is a commotion among our horses!" Lord Roland Craher said urgently. He is the lord of Crake Hall in the West and one of the most important vassals of the Lannister family. Tonight Responsible for guarding the camp.

"There's a commotion among the horses?" James glanced at the visitor, and then involuntarily glanced at Tyrion, feeling a bad premonition in his heart.

"The war horses were going crazy. They were attacking the fence and even biting each other. I deployed a lot of night-watch cavalry to calm the war horses, but it still didn't have much effect, so I was wondering if I should wake up more people." Count Roland Craher has not finished speaking yet.

"Enemy attack!" Suddenly the shouts of the sentries came from outside the camp, accompanied by the sound of horns.

"Enemy attack!"

"Enemy attack! Prepare to defend!"

"The cavalry is coming!"

Chaotic shouts continued to enter the camp. Judging from the sound, James estimated that his camp was being attacked from at least three directions.

Thinking of this, Jaime Lannister couldn't bear it anymore. He didn't even have time to ask the attendants to help him put on his armor. He just wore a mail lining and rushed out of the camp with his sword drawn.

"Ser Jaime."

"Sir James." The guards outside the camp greeted James one after another.

Obviously, the flames of war have not spread to James's central army tent, but the surroundings are already full of fire.

"Sir Jaime, Lord Craych, Lord Tyrion." At this time, a night-watch officer came to report the situation and met the three of them outside the tent.

"Who attacked us? The Northerners?" James asked quickly, but he immediately realized that what he had just asked was completely nonsense. Besides the Northerners, who else could they be attacked by now? So he quickly asked, "How many enemies are there?"

"I don't know." Unexpectedly, the night officer just shook his head wildly, "The opponent's momentum is very large. It is night again, and we have no idea how many enemies there are."

"This time for the formal prisoner exchange, Ed only brought less than 3,000 people. Even if all the cavalry he left behind could get here before nightfall, they would only be more than 5,000 people at most," Roland Clay Earl He said in an unbelievable tone, "And our camp has a total of 18,000 people after gathering Sir Davon's troops! How dare he take the initiative to attack the camp?"

Not to mention waiting for the knights of the valley to join, Duke Stark must at least wait until his own main force arrives, right? Lord Roland Crach never thought that Eddard Stark would launch an attack tonight, so when the horses started to commotion, he also moved some vigil cavalry to the rear to calm the horses.

"Go back and command the battle! I will hold you responsible for your responsibilities after today!" Jaime Lannister cursed at Lord Craher, then turned to the knights behind him, "You two stay to protect Tilly. Ang, others follow me."

James knew that it was impossible to command the overall situation when being raided at night, so he immediately led people to a battlefield and led the soldiers who had just woken up to fight with the northerners.

"It's Ser Jaime!"

"Here comes Ser Jaime!"

Although James did not put on the iconic Red God enamel plate armor, the sharp-eyed soldiers still noticed his arrival. As he killed two Northern Cavalrymen one after another as soon as he entered the scene, the morale of the Western Army here was immediately boosted. Many Western soldiers who were fleeing in a hurry also stopped, picked up their weapons and rejoined the battle, successfully blocking the enemy. enemy offensive.

But there were only a few places that were in better condition. The battle lasted less than half an hour, and half of the entire Lannister military camp had already fallen.

The Lannister army itself was raided without adequate guards, and many people were killed in their sleep. After being awakened, they did not have time to put on their armor, so most of them just picked up their weapons and fought the enemy. . The most frightening thing is that spearmen account for a huge proportion of the Lannister army. In the narrow camp, most spearmen have nowhere to use their weapons. They can only use daggers to fight against the armed swords of the Northerners.

After a brief battle, except for a few camps where big nobles were holding the battle or where the noble standing army was the main force, almost all the soldiers in the other camps who had only been recruited for one or two years fled.

Under the orders of Ed Stark, the Northerners did not pursue the defeated army. Instead, they divided and surrounded the great nobles of the West, approaching step by step.

The resistance of the noble army did not last long. After they realized that the situation was over, Earl Roland Craher, Earl Terrence Kenning and others surrendered one after another.

Lord Andros Brax was killed one-on-one by Lord Greatjon Umber, Lord Quentin Benfort was killed by the arrows of the archers, and Ser Davon Lannister was killed by Davon Lannister in the melee. West Mormont was wounded from behind with a bolas, while Jaime Lannister himself surrendered and was captured after his sword was shattered by Eddard Stark's 'ice'.

The northern army did not stay in the Lannister camp, and did not even capture all the surrenderers. They only took away several nobles, including Brother James, and the outstanding knights, and then hurriedly withdrew northward.

At dawn, Count Antano Just and Count Damon Marbrand, who had successfully escaped last night, regrouped part of the defeated army and returned to the camp that had been burned to the ground, but they could not even see the shadow of the northerners.

After returning from the victory, the northern nobles couldn't wait to start the carnival after returning to the temporary camp, but they were prohibited by Eddard Stark. Under the orders of Duke Stark, they need to immediately count the number of casualties, then break camp and head west, join the large forces in the rear, and then launch a second round of decisive battle against the main force of Lannister stationed outside Harrenhal to remove Harrenhal siege, and met with the army of Queen Shireen led by the king.

Just when everyone returned to their respective camps to pack their things, Lord Roose Bolton also returned to his own camp, found yesterday's letter that he had just finished writing but had not had time to send, and threw it into the brazier to burn. Got clean.

Roose Bolton had to admit that Eddard Stark was a more qualified and bolder general than him. Roose's own plans are often more conservative. When it comes to dealing with the Lannister, he wants to first attack the docks, burn the ferry to prevent the Valley army from crossing the river, and then use 25,000 Stark troops to fight the Lannister army. 35,000 troops were engaged in the decisive battle.

However, Ed grasped the characteristic that the soldiers in James's current camp were mainly recruits from Davon's men who had originally besieged the Run River Basin, and launched a surprise attack against an enemy several times his own.

Ed is unwilling to suspect the valley people's betrayal, let alone take hostile actions against the valley before confirming the valley people's betrayal, but he will seek opportunities in his own way and hold victory in his hands.

Of course, last night's success was inseparable from the magic brought by the man from the Glade, Holland Reed. This is Ed's advantage. Luce defended himself in his heart, but then he smiled bitterly, really Can't live without it?

Dorne

The Watergarden is the private residence of the Dornish ruler. It is a palace composed of fountains and gardens, located on the beach three leagues west of Sunspear, separated by a coastal road.

More than a hundred years ago, Prince Malon Martell built this garden as a gift to his Targaryen bride Daenerys. Another Daenerys, she was Aegon IV Targaryen. The daughter of the King of the World and Queen Nerysh Targaryen, their union marked Dorne's alliance with the Iron Throne and the official unification of the Seven Kingdoms.

Prince Doran Martell sat in a wheelchair, overlooking the numerous pools and fountains in the garden from the balcony. At this moment, the person standing behind him pushing the wheelchair was not his guard captain Alio Hota, but the famous southern general who left the Riverlands after Stannis's death and hurriedly returned to Dorne, the Red Viper. Byron Martell.
