Game of Thrones: I loaded the Witcher system

Yohn Royce looked at the towering walls of Shili City, glared hatefully, and left angrily.

Sons are of course important, but compared to the honor of the entire Royce family, let's stand aside. After all, John Royce has more than one son, and he will not be extinct even if he gets to that point.

Therefore, we can only feel wronged and continue to stay in Shili City. As for whether he can come out alive, the Earl of Runestone City has no say.

With luck, Tywin Lannister succeeded in the south, and he could exchange a great noble from the north for his son. Apart from this, it is estimated that the only time he will see him again will be when Runestone City surrenders.

In the end, reason prevailed. Although he was already in a state of rage, Yohn Royce still did not give the order to storm the well-defended Shili City.

In this round of fighting between him and Clay, no one won.

However, this is not entirely correct, because whether he attacks the city or not, there is still a bargain for Clay.

If Yohn Royce is attacked by Garland Manderley's army in a few words, then Clay will have to see how the Vale people are infantry.

As long as the last bit of Yohn Royce's vitality is exhausted under this stone fence city, Yohn Royce, who is sighing after defeating General Wangcheng with his remaining troops, will no longer be a threat to Clay.

Sometimes, when a person’s Qi is gone, nothing can be accomplished.

If Yohn Royce finally gets smart and decides not to be fooled by Clay, then it doesn't matter. The old boy's only choice now is to go south to Acorn Hall and Stone Hall Town.

Regarding the Earl of Runestone City's choice, Clay's attitude was that it didn't matter.

Whether you want to go or not, as long as you don't stand in the way of Shili City, it's fine. Anyway, ten thousand of you were stationed under the city and you didn't defeat it. Now they are all exhausted. In addition, with such a cold weather, only those who can make achievements can It was a ghost.

Yohn Royce decided to go south to suffer the cold, and Clay certainly agreed. Time was on his side. As long as the two thousand family cavalry brought by Kerison were in place, Clay's chance would come.

When I opened the map, I saw that the area around Stone Hall Town and Acorn Hall, and further south, reached the endless plains of the Reach. That was the territory of the Reach people, and it was impossible for the current Vale people to provoke them.

If you go west, you will reach the intersection of the Red Fork River and the mountains. There is no value in military occupation of that place, and the traffic conditions are extremely poor.

As for going east, oh, do you want Yorn Royce to go to Tywin Lannister for milk in disgrace?

If John Royce dared to go east, then Clay would dare to lead his troops north immediately and eat up the two thousand men who had been sent out to chase Earl Mallister in one go.

Moreover, even with the combined armies of the two southern cities, and considering the losses during the siege for such a long time, John Royce was lucky to have more than 6,000 men under his command.

When these demoralized remnants were defeated at Harrenhal, what use would Tywin Lannister have for them?

They have lost their courage. Their infantry siege ability is extremely stretched. As long as Robb Stark does not break out, they are of no use at all. Apart from helping Tywin eat and continuing to put pressure on Tywin's logistics, What else can you do?

Therefore, Clay judged that even if Yohn Royce left Stone Fence City and rushed to the second southern city to join his army, he would not go anywhere.

With the battle going like this, if Clay were him, he would be too embarrassed to return to the valley.

Without him, it would be too embarrassing.

…

"Lord Clay, are you just going to let them go? If these three thousand cavalry go south, the pressure on Stone Hall Town and Acorn Hall will be great."

Harry River has been following Clay these days, and he has witnessed Clay's battle with his own eyes.

Seeing that Clay was a disadvantaged force from the beginning to the end, he did not panic at all when facing Yohn Royce's army. He made clever arrangements and eliminated Yohn Royce's foundation in Shili City bit by bit. So that he who was chasing him had no place to stand.

All the illegitimate sons in Shili City saw this and were very envious of Clay's ability to command the army with ease. However, he understood that with the size and status of his family and his own identity, he would always listen to others. commanded.

In this rigid and stagnant society, a person decides from birth whether he will command others or listen to others in his life. A famous surname really means almost everything.

Clay, who was standing at the top of the city, looking at where Yohn Royce had left in the south, glanced briefly at this good-looking child, and replied calmly:

"I believe that the people in Acorn Hall and Stone Hall Town can defend their castle. If they cannot, I will lead troops to avenge them in the future. Do you understand?"

Harry River was silent. Clay had told him a long time ago that the three eastern cities were not worthy of Clay Manderly sacrificing his own interests to protect them. When necessary, they could be sacrificed immediately without any trace. hesitantly.

Although Clay's army is now stationed in Shili City, he, the defender of Shili City, will not have any problems in any case, but hearing Clay use such a relaxed and casual tone is like pronouncing the fate of the other two cities. I still felt a little uncomfortable.

He completely forgot that the Clay Mandler in front of him was not from the river at all, and he had no obligation to help them defend the city.

Clay had no time to answer what he thought, he didn't care and didn't want to know.

"Harry Rivers, use your name to contact Riverrun and tell Edmure Tully that the siege of Stonehedge has been lifted, so that he can send troops to take over the defense with confidence. ”

"Also, let me tell Edmure Tully that Clay Manderly is waiting for him at Stonehedge and invites him, the Duke of Riverrun and the Guardian of the Trident, to come here to discuss a comprehensive counterattack plan."

Regarding Clay, Harry Rivers only needs to obey orders honestly. Now, anyone who is a riverland noble knows the importance of Clay Manderly, an outsider, in this land.

For the first time, their army was defeated by the Kingslayer under the Golden Teeth City. The Lannister army once besieged Riverrun. It was this man who led the troops to defeat the Kingslayer, lifted the siege of Riverrun, and rescued the current Edmure Tully, Lord of Riverrun.

And now, after the defeat in the north, all the nobles in the Riverlands were cowering under Riverrun City and stopped moving forward. It was Clay Manderly who used his own troops to reverse the situation abruptly.

To put it bluntly, the Tully family and the Vance family in the Riverlands are much more powerful than the more than a thousand people in Clay's hands now, but do they dare to go against Clay Manderly?

They don't dare. On the contrary, they must take Clay and use his military ability to protect them from the wind and rain. If Clay gives up his job, how can they be the opponents of Tywin and Littlefinger?

This is the reason why Clay can easily borrow two thousand cavalry from the princes of the Riverlands, so both sides can get what they need.

Although the weather has cleared up, the temperature near Shili City is still frighteningly low. The white raven from the school has not arrived yet, which means that in the speculations of those old scholars, the saying that winter is coming can still be said. established.

Clay estimates that after this snow, the temperature will warm up a bit, but it will definitely not reach the warm state before.

This time he asked Kristen to see Sir Malone and gave him a secret explanation.

Immediately notify the old man in Twins City and the uncle Willis who controls White Harbor to immediately make or transfer at least 30,000 winter clothes to Twins City, ready to support the army going south to change clothes.

As for why there are so many, it is of course because Dorne will use these things no matter what, and if you expect those guys who are so hot every day that they don’t wear good clothes to think about winter clothes, it is better to prepare them yourself. .

At this time, Clay would sigh with emotion. It felt good to have a powerful family behind him. If he was a member of a little-known family, he wouldn't even think about such a thing. He wouldn't have the financial resources at all.

"Okay, Master Clay, is there anything else you want me to convey to you?"

Harry Rivers had positioned himself very well, and he would do whatever Clay told him to do.

"No, that's all for now. Thank you for your hard work, Harry Hewen. Although I will not interfere in your family's private affairs, I know that if the king and your father are willing, then illegitimate children can be legalized. "

Clay said this with a smile, glanced at the guard of Shili City who looked a little unnatural, and left the city.

Now that I am a leader, I have to learn the art of painting cakes.

…

Edmure Tully soon received the news of the successful rescue of Stonehedge City.

At this time, everyone in Riverrun breathed a sigh of relief. They had been on tenterhooks every day since Clay led two thousand cavalry eastward.

It's not that he, Clay Manderly, is so important, but that this man is now the battlefield card of the entire Northern Territory and the Riverlands, that is, he dares to continue to lead troops to confront the people of the valley.

No one else has this psychological advantage. After all, they have no record of defeating Lannister head-on.

For more than a month, everyone in Riverrun was eating sumptuous food in the rear every day, scolding Fang Qiu on the map, and loudly arguing about Clay Mandler's possible next move.

When Clay led Yohn Royce's 5,000 men away, the nobles of the Riverlands, led by the Earl of Crowtree City, in Riverrun City, once urged the army to march eastward immediately, using their absolute strength to break through the stone barrier city. siege army.

But this suggestion was blocked by Edmure Tully in the end. The reason was also very interesting. Edmure Tully was worried that if he could not deal with the valley people in time, John Royce was a fan of the old book. Formation, gone and returned, they were completely passive.

How should I put it? Edmure Tully rarely used his brain to think carefully, but he did not give the correct answer. It was not until Clay personally led his troops to kill those guys that Riverrun realized that they were simply fighting against the air. Brave.

But it doesn't matter, Edmure Tully's reputation among the army commanders is already very bad, and this time it is no worse.

Now, Clay's good news, plus a letter signed by Harry Rivers, the illegitimate son of Earl Blinken of Stonehedge, but it turned out to be Clay's tone, arrived at Riverrun.

Edmure Tully suddenly perked up.

Because even a fool can understand that it seems that not many people were killed in this battle, but the Valley people are already in a completely passive state. As long as they push again, the Valley people may be finished.

With such a great achievement, who wouldn’t be greedy?

After all, the armor and war horses of the Valley People are both good things.
