Game of Thrones: I loaded the Witcher system

Chapter 292 Dragon comes to the battlefield

More than a thousand cavalrymen of Brynden Tully rushed out from the west side of the battlefield. Their target was the thousand men on the west side of the Western Army who were trying to encircle them.

There was the sound of horse hooves. This cavalry, which was mainly composed of soldiers of the Tully family, had actually been regarded as the backbone of the family's force by Edmure Tully and Brynden Tully and refused to be wiped out.

After all, although the Riverlands are richer than the North, cavalry is still extremely expensive. In the previous battle, if Clay had not forced him to do anything, they would not have sent them to fight the Lannister in a bloody battle.

After they launched the attack, Clay kept a close eye on every change that occurred on the battlefield. He did not believe that the old lion would still stand still.

As long as these more than a thousand cavalry are in place, they will form a unique encirclement with Earl William Mouton inside against the thousand people of the Western Border Army in the west.

An encirclement composed of more than a thousand cavalry and infantry inside formed an encirclement of the east and west.

If William Mouton's main force is defeated before defeating these thousand people, then Tywin Lannister will definitely lose this time, because next, Clay will command the remaining people, and in turn Making his dumplings.

Sure enough, Tywin Lannister did not disappoint Clay. Less than ten minutes had passed since Brynden Tully entered the battlefield. In the dense forests on both sides of the battlefield, a large group of cavalry suddenly appeared faintly.

There was another melodious and dull attack bugle sound, and the first thing to rush out was the Lannister Cavalry Corps on the west side.

Duke Tywin is a rich man. Except for those like Vale who all add some cavalry, he has the most cavalry in the entire Seven Kingdoms. Therefore, deploying another two thousand cavalry on both sides of the battlefield is not a problem for him. .

The cavalry on the east side did not attack the main battlefield where the fighting was in full swing, but circled around to the north, because their own army was on the outermost side on the east side. They were not light cavalry and could not launch ejections.

Therefore, they chose to seal the opening on the north side of William Mouton's army, hoping to swallow up the surrounded Riverland Army as soon as possible.

But how could Clay make it easy for him?

After giving the order, the three thousand infantrymen of the central army, carrying heavy shields and spears to deal with the cavalry, immediately began to press towards the Lannister cavalry that had detoured to the north.

The battlefield is transparent, and Clay's deployment cannot be hidden from Tywin's eyes. Now both sides are competing for time.

As a result, the cavalry that detoured to the north, as well as the cavalry that was originally going to attack Brynden Tully, temporarily let go of their opponents and launched an attack on Clay's three thousand infantry.

Of course Clay had guessed this. In fact, the previous three thousand infantry plus Brynden Tully's cavalry formed a large group of bait. After the old lion's cavalry was mobilized, the three thousand soldiers he personally led The army is for cavalry to fight.

He himself is good at using cavalry, and of course he knows the advantages and disadvantages of this unit.

The reason why a cavalry is a cavalry is that it must first have a horse.

On the battlefield, a horse that runs is called a horse.

Therefore, once the cavalry loses its speed and is surrounded by infantry, the cavalry no longer poses such a threat.

"Send the order, raise your shields, and prepare for the impact!"

In this era, in addition to horns, all kinds of drums were needed to convey orders on the battlefield.

Inefficient, but still useful.

Soon, the collision between the two sides began. The cavalry tried to attack the shield array laid out by Clay. After suffering a certain amount of casualties, they still broke through the first line of defense.

However, this was not fatal, because Clay's main force of 3,000 Chinese troops laid out four layers of defense for the Lannister cavalry to attack.

There are the most people in the outer layer, and the number of people decreases as you go inward.

As long as some cavalry are put in, the gap opened will be closed as much as possible to cut off the following Lannister cavalry.

As for those who rushed in.

Just leave it to your own spearmen.

The fighting outside the city was in full swing, and it did not slow down at all inside the city.

Sir Gregor Clegane "The Mountain" has made great progress on his journey to the tower.

On the battlefield of the Grand Legion, personal bravery does not play a big role, but in the tower passage of the King Burning Tower at Harrenhal, the "Magic Mountain" covered in blood is an out-and-out giant. Killer weapon.

No one can survive several rounds under his powerful and heavy sword. Either the weapon is cut off, the jaws of the tiger are broken like Theon Greyjoy, or they are directly severely wounded by the sword, or even die on the spot.

The passage was narrow, and there was no room for the longbow. Even some hand crossbows could not cause fatal damage to him after breaking through the heavy iron armor of the "Magic Mountain". On the contrary, it stimulated his ferocity.

Northern soldiers are human beings, and they are also afraid.

And fear is contagious.

If it weren't for them, there would be no retreat now.

Now they have long been separated under the attack of the "Magic Mountain".

However, they were still retreating steadily, and they were not far from the level of the lord's room where Robb Stark was.

Bad news keeps coming, and the northern nobles all know that they can no longer engage in meaningless quarrels and must make a decision.

"I propose that your Majesty be transferred immediately!"

someone said.

"Can your Majesty's body hold up?"

Someone immediately objected.

The two immediately started arguing again, and then were interrupted by a tired scolding.

"Okay, shut up!"

This is Jon Umber's voice.

Finally, the Earl of Hearth City stood up, tightened his thick clothes, and whispered:

"Stop arguing, it's useless."

He glanced at everyone present, the expressions on his face were full of unwillingness and helplessness.

"Take His Majesty away. If His Majesty really went to see the Seven Gods on the way, then at least he died beside one of our own people instead of being captured by the Lannister and taken to that smelly lion's den. , when I left, I didn’t even have the final dignity.”

"I will bear this responsibility. If something happens, my title will be inherited by my son. After I go back, I will kneel under the Heart Tree in the godswood of Winterfell and confess to Lord Eddard. "

After saying that, the Earl of Last Hearth City with sunken eyes took the lead in leaving the conference room.

Among all the northern nobles present, he has the highest title and the most prestigious. Therefore, he can only make the final decision.

Everyone else in the conference room looked at each other and sighed.

Let the Earl of Hearth City bear this responsibility alone. Although they were relieved in their hearts, they still felt uncomfortable.

But right now, life is more important than anything else.

So, soon, Robb Stark, whose breathing was very weak, was carried into a makeshift stretcher, covered with a thick blanket, and taken out of his room.

The most elite guards led him carefully onto the stone bridge between the Burning King Tower and the Widow Tower.

When "Black Heart" Harren built Harrenhal, the amount of work seriously exceeded the standard, which resulted in the location of this connected stone bridge being very high.

When Harrenhal was built, there were stone walls on both sides of the stone bridge that could isolate the wind.

But after hundreds of miles of wind and rain, these stone walls have basically collapsed.

It was still snowing heavily, and a thin layer of ice formed on the smooth stone bridge, which made the four guards carrying Robb Stark walk more carefully.

Although it is said that in most cases, careful sailing is the best way, there are always exceptions to everything.

Halfway through, a strong crosswind suddenly blew in.

The soldier on the left front slipped and his body immediately tilted outward.

He instinctively grabs whatever he can.

Like Robb Stark's stretcher.

However, he made a mistake.

When I slipped, I subconsciously let go. Now I want to catch it again in panic, but it is even more difficult.

Then, the unlucky guy fell directly from the left side of the stone bridge, let out a long scream in the air, and then hit the ground hard.

I can’t bear to describe that scene.

When he fell, Robb Stark did not fall directly, but he still fell out of the stretcher that suddenly tilted.

He rolled onto the cold ground and was not woken up by the cold wind.

By the time the soldiers were hurriedly carrying their king from the ground back to the stretcher, they could already hear the sound of fighting in the Burning King Tower behind them.

Obviously, due to their delay, the "Magic Mountain" has already caught up.

"Let's go!"

Jon Umber roared.

If they were caught up by the Western Army on this stone bridge, and His Majesty Robb Stark was like that guy just now in a hurry, all of them, one or two vassals, would kneel under the Heart Tree and commit suicide.

The group of people used 120,000 precautions, increased their speed as much as possible, and successfully arrived at the Widow's Tower with Robb Stark.

Fortunately, the Widow's Tower was still under the control of the Northern Army. When they finally returned to the ground, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

However, as soon as they exhaled this breath and before they could take another breath, they discovered that they seemed to have been discovered by the nearby Western Army.

This is going to be bad!

They are a group of great nobles, all of them are well-dressed, even if they are more simple, they are still very different from ordinary soldiers.

Therefore, without anyone’s identification, the Western soldiers immediately realized that the group of people in front of them were all big fish.

If one can be caught, then this time, the military exploits of these Western soldiers will be guaranteed and they will not be able to escape.

Returning to their poor families, with this merit, both of them were able to become serfs and sing.

Seeing this group of Northern nobles, the Western soldiers all turned red-eyed. I don't know who shouted first. They all waved their weapons and rushed towards Jon Amber and his party.

"Quick! Take Your Majesty away first!"

Jon Umber nudges Theon Greyjoy.

He has decided that he will delay Robb Stark enough time here today, which can be regarded as fulfilling his obligations to the Stark family as a vassal.

As for the rest, even if he surrenders, no one will blame him.

"Come on! Children of the West!"

Jon Amber, who drew out his steel sword and was about to fight a fierce battle, suddenly found that the Western Army rushing towards them suddenly stopped in front of them.

Everyone had an expression of disbelief on their faces, all uniformly staring blankly at the sky.

There seems to be something up there.

Then, Jon Umber knew why they were behaving like this, because he heard a huge fluttering sound.

Galesos reaches the sky above Harrenhal before Daenerys drives Drogon.

At first, it simply wanted to play with Clay, but after sensing the magic power in its body, it discovered that its master must be a little busy now.

It hovered in the clouds for a while, but finally decided to fly down to find Clay.

However, it doesn't know what kind of changes its appearance will bring to the current battle situation.

Of course Clay knew Galesos was coming.

After all, it was his dragon, and it was strange that he didn't know.

Therefore, he decided to quickly finish the battle in front of him.

Anyway, since Galesos was approaching, Clay's mentality suddenly became much more relaxed.

Originally, with ten thousand reinforcements about to arrive on the battlefield, he didn't worry about Tywin's army. Now, with the dragon coming, he didn't even care.

Seemingly sensing something, Clay was the first to react when Galesos rushed down from the clouds.

"Lord Clay...is that...a dragon?"

After finally controlling the anxious horse, Edmure Tully's lips trembled, and his dark blue eyes stared intently at the huge blue-gold figure soaring in the sky.

The size of this dragon was much larger than he imagined.

The dragon's wings blocked the sunlight in the sky and cast a large shadow on the entire battlefield.

As he flew over Clay's head, Clay realized that he could feel Galesos's thoughts again.

This guy looks much fatter than before. It seems that Daenerys has fed him well.

Clay looked at the dragon full of joy and thought to himself.

He glanced at Edmure Tully, who looked very ugly next to him, and the contempt in his heart became stronger, but he said:

"Yes, that's the dragon."

His tone was calm, completely different from Edmure Tully's almost epileptic look.

"Then...it...what is it here for?"

"Who knows? Anyway, didn't your Tully family fight with the dragon in the last War of Wrath? I think it shouldn't be a big deal."

"ah……"

Edmure Tully almost suspected that he had heard wrongly. He stared blankly at Clay Manderly, who was calm and composed in front of him, and felt an increasingly strong sense of strangeness in him for no reason.

Clay's angry words just now reminded him.

In his opinion, the dragon belongs to the Targaryen, and the Targaryens are bound to be full of hatred for the Lannister. Therefore, maybe he is not the dragon's first target.

Anyway, Tywin Lannister is definitely more anxious than himself now.

He actually thought well, because when Tywin Lannister saw the dragon for the first time, the first reaction that came to his mind was to run away.

Back then, during the Great War of Fury, his Lannister ancestor, the original King of Casterly Rock, was almost burned to death on the battlefield by the dragon flames of Aegon Targaryen and his two queens.

That war was the only time during the entire Conquest War that the three dragons Balerion, Meraxes, and Vhagar appeared on the same battlefield at the same time.

After winning this battle, it basically announced the complete end of the original rule of the Seven Kingdoms kings in Westeros. Later, the King of the North, Torrhen Stark, surrendered at the Bent Knee Pillar. The root of this came from this. A tragic war that killed thousands of people.

It can be said that the Lannister family has a history of facing dragons.

Therefore, for the sake of his own safety, the old lion's first reaction was to run away.

Galesos flew several times in the sky, and the roar of the giant dragon spread throughout the battlefield that was fighting to the death a second ago, but now fell into a deadly silence.

It was like pressing the pause button, and the sword that was originally going to stab the opponent's waist stopped. Some 250s did not forget to remind their opponents who were red-eyed to kill them, to look at the sky first.

The suppression from the bloodline caused the galloping cavalry to either stop or fall over.

Without him, all the war horses were frightened.

This is the pressure of the dragon!

Originally, this battle has been fought so far, and the two sides are in an inseparable situation. More than 2,000 people of Earl William Mouton are facing Tywin's 3,000 troops, attacking from three directions, and they are gritting their teeth to hold on. .

On the front, the offensive launched by Clay's 3,000-strong army was blocked by Old Lion's cavalry, but at a heavy price.

It can be said that it is difficult to see the outcome of both sides without fighting until the end.

However, as soon as Galesos appeared, the battle obviously became an anticlimax and could not be fought.

Clay looked at Galesos who was trying to find him, smiled, and fired a Seal of Axis at the restless war horse under his crotch, making the latter quiet down.

Then, he drove it slowly towards an open space on the northwest side of the battlefield.

Now that Galesos has appeared, Clay Mandler has no reason to ride a horse anymore.

Anyway, sooner or later, he will stand in front of the Seven Kingdoms. Now that the matter has come to this point, there is no need for Clay to hide it.

Almost everyone was immobilized, and Clay walked out leisurely at this time, looking very unique.

Many people noticed him, but no one knew what he was up to.

"Clay Mandler, what is he going to do?"

Count Vance couldn't help but asked aloud.

But no one present could answer his question because they also wanted to know the answer to this question.

After all, Clay Mandler, as the commander of the army, just left his command position and walked to an open space outside the military formation.

However, in the next second, something happened that made everyone's jaws drop to the ground.

The blue-gold dragon, after seeing Clay Mandler and his horse, let out a joyful roar, flapped its wings twice, and then landed steadily on the open space where Clay was. .

People who saw this scene couldn't help but feel a ridiculous feeling in their hearts:

Is this giant dragon really coming to find their commander?

How can this be? !

Clay didn't care what they thought. He looked at the fat guy in front of him who was already bigger than when he left last time and smiled.

He noticed that what Galesos was staring at now was not him, but the horse he was riding that was forcibly controlled by the Seal of Axis.

Clay understood what that meant.

Ride it instead of me?

Galesos was dissatisfied.

Turning over and dismounting, Clay looked at the big guy in front of him who was as tall as himself just at the tip of his mouth, and said with a smile:

"Let it go. After all, it's quite hard to carry your master around."

After that, he slapped the war horse on the rear and told the unlucky guy to rush in and stay away.

He knew very well what kind of character the dragon he raised was a stingy man at heart.

Clay didn't say so. It is estimated that the only fate of this war horse is to be roasted by the dragon flames and become Galesos' lunch.

A stream of burning breath came out of the dragon's nostrils with blue-gold veins.

It's like letting the horse go.

Clay then asked:

"Why don't you stay in Dorne anymore? Didn't I tell you to wait for me when I get back?"

When he said this, Galesos became silent.

Because it was indeed against Clay's orders.

The huge head stretched forward and rubbed against Clay's chest.

Clay was helpless with this lazy look.

It has come, and there is no need for Clay to scold it.

It just so happened that he was given the opportunity to show his holiness in person.

"Let's go, I haven't experienced what the sky is like for a long time."

Clay followed Galesos's tilted body and slowly climbed onto the dragon's back under the stunned gazes of others.

Feeling the scorching heat on the dragon's body, Clay grabbed the thorn on Galesos' back.

He said softly:

"Fly."

The dragon received the master's order, howled happily, and rushed forward a few steps. Its huge wings spread out and soared into the sky, bringing with it a fierce wind.

"Gods for heaven's sake, I...I...did I read that correctly?"

Edmure Tully could not believe what he had just seen.

Clay Mandler, whom he had always considered to be essentially trying to evade him, actually got on the back of a giant dragon that came from nowhere, and now he took off directly.

In other words, Clay Mandler...can control a dragon?

Edmure Tully's mind was completely confused. He could not understand why Clay Manderly could control the dragon. He did not remember that Manderly's ancestors were related by marriage to Targaryen.

The most terrible thing is, where did Clay Manderly create such a giant dragon that made Edmure Tully unable to muster any courage to resist?

Countless chaotic thoughts filled the mind of the guardian of the riverlands, leaving him completely stunned.

At this time, Brynden Tully, who had just left the battlefield and hurried over, rushed back to him. He did not see Clay coming out of the battle.

Realizing that Clay was not around his nephew, Brynden Tully frowned and asked:

"Where's Master Clay?"

What answered him was Edmure Tully's pointed upward finger.

"in the sky."

The Duke of Riverrun said with a wry smile.

Clay drove Galesos and hovered in the sky. He was not in a hurry to order Galesos to attack directly.

Now on the entire battlefield, there is no weapon that can restrain the dragon at all. The only useful city defense crossbow has been almost destroyed in the previous city offensive and defensive battles.

Therefore, once Galesos arrives, Clay can do whatever he wants now, it all depends on his mood.

With the arrival of Galesos, the previous alliance between his Mandalay family and the North and the Riverlands has been dissolved in a practical sense.

They don't have the guts to deal with Clay with the same attitude as before.

While he was thinking, Clay suddenly saw another familiar dark figure in the sky.

Is she here too?
