Game of Thrones: I loaded the Witcher system

This is a very taboo topic.

It's not that no one is allowed to say a word on this. In fact, what every noble probably likes to talk about most is the king himself and what each of the king's orders is like.

They love to express their opinions on these matters as if they themselves had the power of kings.

But these cannot be placed on the table or under the sun.

For Count Tytos Blackwood to ask directly like Clay, it was actually very surprising.

Because in Earl Blackwood's view, the two sides have different positions on this issue.

He himself is a well-established and well-established nobleman of the River Land. In other words, no matter what his personal preferences are, his interests are deeply tied to the land of the River Land, so he has to speak for the Land of the River Land.

The current king and the future kings will all be from the north. As a native of the river, they naturally don't like such a king very much.

Because they are not one of our own.

As for Clay's Mandalay family, although due to the Frey family's ignorance, the current Twin River City and a large area nearby have become the land of the Mandalay family.

It seems as if they are also branded with the Riverlands.

But who can say they are a Riverland noble?

Mandalay has been a northern surname for the past millennium and remains the same now.

I didn’t look at it. The current leader of Manderly, the Clay Manderly in front of me, combined with the current theoretical co-owner of the Riverlands, Edmure Tully of the Tully family, the current Duke of Riverrun, one day He spent the whole night shouting and drinking, training him like a grandson.

Lord Tytos Blackwood was not sure whether Clay mentioned this accidentally or if he was deliberately asking about his attitude.

But when he saw Klein's calm eyes looking at him calmly, he knew that he must answer this question today.

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and answer:

"Lord Clay, we people from the river...still respect His Majesty Robb very much..."

"Yeah?"

Clay smiled and asked.

Tytos Blackwood simply refused to answer, knowing that Clay's question would not be out of place.

Clay stopped embarrassing him and said what he wanted to say directly.

"Let me tell you clearly, Lord Blackwood, you riverlanders have no intention of saving Robb Stark. If I hadn't forced you to force the military power into my hands, you would have no desire to fight against Harrenhal." A battle, right?”

This sentence directly stunned Earl Tytos Blackwood on the spot. He did not expect that Clay would be the first to mention this to him at this time. Under the water in the river, it belongs to you and me, but It’s just something that can’t be said.

Now that the war has reached this point, there are actually more and more voices emerging in the riverlands.

They were asking, why did the Riverlands have to follow the northern border all the way to the dark side?

It is obvious that since Eddard Stark overturned in King's Landing and the war broke out, all the way to the current Battle of Harrenhal, the nobles of the Riverlands have increasingly discovered that their core interests are completely inconsistent with those of the North.

Especially after Clay fought the first battle at Riverrun and the North won a great victory, what did the people of the North do?

The people all withdrew to the north, took the loot with them, and returned to the north of Jingze to live their own lives.

Then, the remaining nobles of the Riverlands were left staring.

At this time, they discovered that the people in the north had no way to protect them.

Suppose...suppose.

If Robb Stark doesn't lead his troops south to avenge his father.

The people of the valley have been planning to join the war for a long time. Then, the army in the riverlands will be unprepared and be rushed into the interior by the powerful valley cavalry, killing them.

At this time, if Jaime Lannister, the little lion of the West, breaks out of the Golden Teeth City again, the entire Riverlands may be at risk of overturning.

Counting on Robb Stark at Winterfell to gather his soldiers slowly and leisurely, and then head south again after so many miles, the day lilies will be cold.

Even this time, relying on Clay Manderly's heroic performance to win the Battle of Harrenhal and settle all the opposition in the West or Westeros, the matter will be over and the Riverlands can be conquered. Have you had a happy birthday?

It's obviously impossible.

As mentioned before, Stark and Tully cannot put together a crown that can claim the country.

Therefore, if the Blood Gate is not controlled in the east, the Golden Tooth City is not controlled in the west, and there is a vast plain in the south, as long as the Riverlands is slightly weaker, anyone can come in and grab it.

If the Riverlands are to follow the Northern Territory all the way to the dark side, then the future war pattern will look like the following.

The Riverlands were beaten!

Calling Northern Dad!

The Riverlands continue to take a beating!

Northern Dad began to mobilize slowly and leisurely...

Then, the Riverlands were nearly beaten to death.

Dad from the North finally arrived on the battlefield, and then had a ping-pong-pong fight with the invading enemies on the body of the river.

The last person to be injured was the Riverlands.

When the war is over, assume that the North has won.

what happens?

Do they expect the Northerners to garrison troops in the Riverlands to help them defend their homeland?

impossible!

People from the north will still go back to their hometown in the north.

Found it?

If this mode continues to operate, Hejian can only spread its hands. Why is it always me who gets hurt?

This is not nonsense.

The North and Dorne are the birthplaces of Westeros secessionism, but the Riverlands are not.

It is in a place of four battles and is not very strong. In fact, it wants to be tied to the Iron Throne the most.

Now boarding the ship in the North is purely due to the complicated marriage relationship back then.

I would like to ask, which king sitting on the Iron Throne in the future will tolerate such a large piece of river land disobeying the Iron Throne?

If there were no Riverlands, let alone anything else, the only way to go to the West would be to go south and take a very long detour.

It would be even more outrageous to go to the valley. We can only go by boat.

And if the traffic difference between these two places and the Iron Throne is like this, then something that some people like to hear will happen again:

It won't be long before these two places become independent because the cost of contact is too high.

Therefore, no king will allow the Riverlands to not be affiliated with the Iron Throne. As long as they have a little ability, they will tirelessly pursue this land.

As for the North and Dorne, we can take a break for the time being.

At this time, if you bring in the logic just now, you will find that it is a ghost to have a good life in the river land.

Both humans and ghosts are showing off, only the riverlands are being beaten, and there's nothing we can do about it!

These nobles in the River Land are all human beings. How can they not understand this truth?

Even if there are some stupid people, they will quickly understand it with other people's explanations.

That is to say, the old lion and the valley people beat them too hard before, and they couldn't surrender, so they brought Clay Manderly in. The result was good, and now they have to pay for themselves. .

But the future is visible to the naked eye, so there is no problem for the riverland nobles to drive away the people of the valley, and there is no problem at all to support Clay Manderly in the war.

However, as soon as the people of the valley were finished, something similar to the winter coat incident occurred immediately.

Some people from the river are not willing to throw their wealth into the meat grinder of Harrenhal and continue fighting for the king Robb Stark.

So Brynden Tully had arrived at the battlefield, but he was holding a small stool and eating melon on the side, watching Cresson fight to the death with the old lion's army inside.

Edmure Tully may be a fool, but Brynden Tully is anything but.

As long as he wants to fight, can he find a breakthrough and rush in to help Kristen fight?

impossible!

It's hard to say that even Brynden Tully has similar considerations in his mind now.

Catelyn Tully is a Tully, but Robb is a Stark. Ser Brynden can still tell this clearly.

It was because he was aware of this that Clay chose to ask Tytos Blackwood, a person who was relatively familiar with him, at this time when he was about to take action.

Because, from a certain perspective, his thoughts and even interests are intertwined with those of the nobles of the Riverlands.

After all, Mandalay was a northerner before, and he will definitely not be in the future.

The Riverlands must not be Clay's enemy, but must become Clay's most loyal supporter.

His choice to talk to Earl Blackwood about this matter was indeed just a test, but he believed that the day of showdown was not far away.

Maybe, it really is tomorrow.
