Game of Thrones: I loaded the Witcher system

Chapter 324 No fleet is allowed even if it exists

Vale of Arryn.

Old anchorage.

The main force of the Valley Fleet is located.

It is said to be the main fleet, because the valley itself does not attach importance to the ocean. To be precise, it was in history, after the Stark family, who was still the King of Winter at that time, ended the competition for the Three Sisters Islands.

Valley never took the navy seriously again.

This fleet, which was funded by various companies but has never left the port since the outbreak of the war, is actually of no use.

No one remembers them, and no one uses them.

From the perspective of the people in the valley, anyway, on the Narrow Sea, to the north, the White Harbor Fleet of the Mandela family firmly blocked the Bite Bay and hung a pile of bloody pirate corpses on a nearby island.

The Valley Fleet would not dare to mess with such an evil star.

If you can't go north, can you go south?

Sorry, no!

Because to the south, the people of the Vale have to face the Royal Fleet, which is theoretically the largest in terms of total tonnage among the fleets of the Seven Kingdoms, and is controlled by Stannis.

Is that something you can afford?

With just a few of our boats, we will become a meal for others as soon as we meet.

Based on this self-awareness.

Therefore, the so-called United Valley Fleet is actually far inferior to even the trade fleet of Seagull Town.

You know, these days, the difference between merchant ships and warships is actually not that big.

In sea battles, apart from using corners to directly overturn the opponent, most battles are ended by jumping gangs, boarding the opposite ship, and killing everyone on the opposite side.

In this case, it is not the ship that actually determines the outcome of the war, but the quality of the armed forces on the ship.

It can be understood that this is actually the same as treating the ship as land.

The cavalry that the valley people are good at cannot run on a small boat, and the war horses cannot stay on the water for a long time.

As a result, the strength of the Valley Fleet became even weaker.

In fact, they are considered a "green water fleet", which is not the same thing as the "blue water navy" such as the Manderly family's White Harbor fleet, Stannis's royal fleet, and the iron fleet of the Iron Islands.

It can be seen from their home port, a place called the Old Anchorage, that these guys are really not welcome.

This is purely a group of people in power in the valley who have a problem with their tactical thinking.

Because for thousands of years, no one has landed from the east coast and ultimately caused big trouble in the valley.

there has never been.

Therefore, in the history of wars, the focus of defense in the valley has always been the western border with the Blood Gate as the core.

As for the coastline to the east...

In one sentence:

Whoever you love, log in and kill me if you can!

And this mentality finally kicked off the fall of the valley in 302 AD.

On this day, in the harbor of the old anchorage, about ten ships of the Valley Fleet, basically longships, were anchored one by one, tied with cables, and leaned against the shore.

A few days ago, there was a heavy snowfall here in the valley. As a result, these ships, which had never moved, were now covered with a thick layer of snow on their decks.

Rune Marko, as the lord of the old anchorage, is on his tower, staring at this fleet that is decaying day by day, not knowing what he is thinking.

Recently, he heard some rumors.

It seems that the neighbor to the north, the arrogant White Harbor fleet, is gathering on a large scale recently.

Could it be that another blind pirate appears?

Count Rune Malkor shook his head.

You are really short-sighted. In the past two years, the White Harbor Fleet has almost turned this area into a pirate restricted area. How come anyone dares to come?

Aren't you going to die on your own?

With the size of the White Harbor Fleet, even if they were pirates themselves, they could directly chase the pirate ships and rob them.

Everyone has to admit that the northwest part of the Narrow Sea is the territory of the Mandalay family's White Harbor Fleet.

To be honest, as one of the nobles in the valley who still valued the navy, he envied the Mandalay family very much.

Maybe, when the war is over, the two sides can cooperate.

Rune Malkor didn't want to see this fleet rot like this. If he could cooperate with the Mandalay family, it might be able to play some role.

He thought so.

Then, he saw a large white sail shadow on the blue sea.

Appearing suddenly, there was no time for anyone to react.

When Rune Malkor finally saw the pattern on the full white sail clearly, he suddenly realized that something was wrong!

This is the main force of the Mandalay family's White Harbor fleet.

Damn it, why did they suddenly show up here?

Where is the guard fleet outside?

Why not send a message back to warn?

Rune Malkor was furious.

He felt that those guys must have been too lazy, so that the White Harbor Fleet took the opportunity to attack, leaving him, the old Earl of Anchorage and the commander of the Valley Fleet, in a hurry and unprepared.

However, when he saw the huge thing jumping out of the clouds instantly, he understood that he might have wronged his men.

The biggest dragon is coming.

When Clay learned from the returning Daenerys that the entire White Harbor fleet was dispatched and could transport up to 3,000 people at a time, he immediately formulated a plan to encircle and annihilate the Valley fleet.

"The important thing now is not how to kill them, but to find where the Valley Fleet is first."

Clay pointed to the large sand table and pointed at several cities along the valley's coast.

"Now it is certain that there is no fleet stationed in Lengshui City, and it should not be possible in Xinshu City. So, I judge that the Valley People's fleet should probably be in Snakewood City and Old Anchorage."

"Why not in Runestone City?"

Daenerys interjected.

Clay shook his head and replied:

"Yon Royce is a typical stubborn person. He doesn't like the navy. In a place as obvious as Runestone City, if there was a fleet of Valley people stationed there, the previous news would have been spread back."

Clay touched his chin and glanced back and forth between Snakewood City and Old Anchorage.

Really unsure of what the people in the valley were thinking, Clay threw a circle on the sand next to him that was the narrow sea, and said viciously:

"If you don't come out, I'll come find you!"

He looked up at the old man and described his next plan.

"Grandpa, I plan to drive Galesos on my own first, over the Mingyue Mountains from the north, and directly into Snakewood City."

"If there is no place like this, then I will take our main fleet from White Harbor and attack the old anchorage directly to completely destroy the maritime power of the Valley people."

"Once this is completed, we must be ready for landing operations at any time."

"Our family's soldiers, as well as the people from the Riverlands and the North, all have to participate in this operation."

"I don't care who I send, but don't give me a bunch of people. The quality required for landing operations is higher than that of ordinary battle formations."

The old man nodded, he understood what Clay meant.

"Then you go first, and I will start selecting people right now. Don't worry, I won't tell them the true combat purpose before you issue the final attack order."

There is nothing that can be done about it. Everyone knows that Clay must have the most spies now.

No way, who gives them the strategic initiative?

It was impossible for Clay to conduct an internal investigation. It would be useless and could easily cause accidental damage.

The only way is to end the war as soon as possible.

In order to ensure that the specific purpose of the action is not leaked, this method can only be adopted first.

Clay rode the dragon and set off from Twin River City, then flew directly to the southeast.

The vast Mingyue Mountains are an insurmountable chasm for ordinary people, but for Clay and Galesos, it is just a smooth road.

He is not afraid that he and Galesos will be discovered. This trip is to destroy the fleet in the valley. Before that, let the people in the valley be confused for a while to confuse them and divert their attention.

Of course it is a good idea.

Therefore, when Galesos' oppressive dragon body appeared in the sky above Hongge City, what Clay saw was a scene of panic.

Unless there is a lunatic, no one will not feel fear in the face of a dragon, a mythical creature born for violence.

Even though they had set up four anti-air versions of the Dragon-shooting Crossbows on the top of Hongge City.

Clay was still some distance away from Hongge City, and the panic-stricken defenders in the city had already activated the crossbow machine to fire the dragon crossbow.

He estimated that the time these people had been targeting was probably only slightly longer than the time they had been targeting women.

After all, he is a fast shooter in every sense of the word.

A huge crossbow arrow as thick as a forearm flew out from the heavy crossbow machine and hit Clay directly.

However, this distance is really too far. If he could hit it, he would be so unlucky even if he drank cold water and stuffed his teeth.

Moreover, even if it hits, the kinetic energy has already been reduced by such a long distance.

There is still a question mark as to how powerful it can be.

However, it is rude to come and not reciprocate.

You've been cumming on me for a long time, and if you don't come back, how can such a good thing happen?

Do you really think that I, Clay Mandler, am a fool?

So, Clay drove Galesos, flew upwards, and directly entered the clouds, causing the defenders of Hongge City to lose their sight.

He just noticed that it seemed that these giant crossbows were not that flexible and turned very slowly.

This is easy to handle.

"Let's go, Galesos, let's go straight down, remember, the target is the four crossbows, destroy them first, remember?"

Clay patted the blue-gold dragon beneath him.

This guy was very smart. In response to his master's words, he puffed out a small puff of dragon flame to show that he understood.

Then, finding the right moment, one person and one dragon swooped down from the sky.

When they reappeared from the clouds, they were already in the middle of Hongge City.

The crossbow machine located on the four legs did not react at all.

Because it was diving downward, the speed was much faster than normal flight. In a few breaths, Galesos had already reached Hongge City.

These guys shouted wildly, urging the crossbow to turn, but it was too late.

"dracrays!"

Clay gave the order to attack.

Galesos' ferocious dragon mouth opened, and a ball of heavy dragon flames spurted out instantly.

With a huge impact, in the horrified sight of the crossbow operator, it swallowed them head-on.

These people didn't even have time to scream, and were instantly turned into ashes in the unusually high temperature.

Roaring angrily, Galesos knew very well that with his single blow, the crossbow machine had been scrapped.

So, the giant dragon turned around and rushed towards the nearest other one.

For a human, this distance takes a long time to cover, but for a dragon, it is only a blink of an eye.

There was another mouthful of scalding dragon flames. This time, the tower on the northeast side of Hongge City was directly destroyed by the dragon flames.

The smoke was billowing like hell.

The people in Hongge City were stunned by this sudden blow.

They had never seen a giant dragon before, and they completely lost the courage to resist this unparalleled scene of violence.

When the giant dragon looked at the other two crossbows, the defenders controlling them screamed and fled in all directions.

And this is doomed, no one will sleep in Hongge City tonight!

Clay no longer had to give orders, Galesos knew what he should do.

After completely destroying everything that threatened him in Hongge City, the blue-gold dragon lost interest in continuing to attack.

There is no point in burning these ordinary people. The noble dragon does not bother to destroy such weak lives.

He fluttered his wings and left, leaving Hongge City in panic, shivering in the billowing smoke.

Galesos's attack announced the powerful offensive capabilities of the dragon, which still posed a fatal threat to the nobles equipped with dragon-shooting crossbows.

Clay could have ordered Galesos to shoot down the dragon flames and completely wipe the Belmore family from Hongge City from this world.

But then I thought about it and decided to forget it.

It is more beneficial to you to keep them alive than to burn them.

Living in fear, afraid of oneself, the valley, which is already full of mixed voices, may become even more chaotic.

It is naturally best to win without fighting.

After leaving Hongge City, Clay continued eastward and rushed toward his destination, Snakewood City.

In less than half a day, Galesos had brought Clay to the place.

After circling for several times, Clay determined that although there was a port in this place, there was no large-scale battleship group at all.

In other words, the Valley People's maritime power is not here at all, which means that they must have left their main force in the old anchorage.

Very good, the goal is set, Clay's mission on this trip has been successfully completed.

After glancing at Snakewood City who was also panicking, Clay sneered and chose to leave.

Of course he could set another fire and burn it all down.

But there's no need. Living people can spread fear, but dead people can't.

Let them tremble, so that their real raid plan can be better covered.

Return to the old anchorage battlefield.

The main fleet of White Harbor brought by Clay launched a surprise attack on the Valley Fleet in the port.

This time, Clay brought a total of two thousand elites. The purpose was to completely annihilate all the sea forces in the valley.

As for himself, he was driving Galesos and monitoring the direction of the old anchorage fortress.

There, once the Marko family sends reinforcements, Clay wouldn't mind letting them experience the temperature of the dragon flame.

The Valley Fleet was caught off guard and heard the warning. It had just left the port and the formation was not completed.

Five warships equipped with sharp ramming angles from the White Harbor Fleet cut directly into the middle.

The Valemen's ships themselves were in disrepair, lacked maintenance, and lacked their own tonnage.

At that moment, the three longships were directly hit with huge cracks.

The sound of the wood breaking was frightening.

The outcome of this naval battle was destined from the beginning.

From three aspects: morale, battleship formation and configuration, and number of people, the Valley Fleet is at an absolute disadvantage. In addition, there is a sudden attack from the White Harbor Fleet, and there is a giant dragon in the sky.

Is there any reason why An should not lose?

This one-sided massacre lasted only half an hour.

After sinking four ships, the Valley Fleet directly waved the Gallic flag and surrendered.

Clay was not polite, landed directly, and ordered the White Harbor fleet to dock immediately.

We still have to try to find places like the old anchorage.

Come anyway.

It would be a shame not to give it a try.

Therefore, these crew members of the Valley Fleet who had just become prisoners, after being stripped of all their weapons, directly became cannon fodder for Clay's troops to attack the old anchorage fortress.

Large groups of Mandalay family infantry, as well as 300 specially transported cavalry, disembarked one after another. After completing the formation on the shore, they drove the guys who had just surrendered and moved toward the city gate.

Clay wants to see if you, Count Marco, dare to kill your own people.

If you don't dare, don't blame my army and go directly to your city.

Strategies on the battlefield sometimes don't need to be complicated, being simple, efficient, and executable is the best tactical choice.

When Clay's army slowly pressed within a stone's throw of the city gate, Count Marco, who knew the current situation, chose to open the door and surrender.

Faced with such military power, the Marko family, whose main force was mostly in the direction of the Blood Gate, was unable to resist at all.

In this case, why are you still seeking death, right?

Rune Malkor, the Earl of Old Anchorage, knelt in front of the castle door, led his army, and dedicated his land and castle to Clay Manderly who had landed.

After glancing at the old guy kneeling in the mud with a gray face and holding the family sword, Clay did not pick it up.

He didn't plan to stay here for long. After all, two thousand people ashore would not be of much use.

"Get up, I don't intend to kill you."

Clay said.

Count Rune Marko was a little confused. His Majesty Clay Manderly, does he not accept his surrender?

Why?

He knew very well that at this time, all he had to do was follow His Majesty's instructions, and nothing more should be done.

"My people will cooperate with you. Apart from the food that you can survive on, the rest will be moved out for me."

"Also, the golden dragons, weapons and armor in your warehouse must be handed over."

"This is the price of your life."

Every time Clay said something, Rune Malkor's expression turned uglier.

His Majesty is also from a noble family, and everything he wants directly hits the fundamentals of a lord.

However, after taking a look at the blue-gold dragon staring at his head, Rune Malkor could only sigh in his heart.

Forget it, hand it over.

At least I can survive.

One thing is very clear to him.

This is war, and all rules can be put aside.

Clay Mandler wants to kill him, and there's really no way anyone can stop him.

The troops originally used to attack the city were not used, but it didn't matter. Under Clay's order, they completed a gorgeous turn in an instant and became a glorious transportation brigade.

Although the old anchorage fortress was not completely searched, almost all the fat on it was scraped off.

At this time, Count Rune Marko finally came to his senses.

Isn't this what pirates should do?

No wonder Clay Manderly didn't pick up his sword.

You don’t intend to keep your feelings here at all, do you?

The powerful earl of the valley felt his heart bleed as he looked at the boxes of food, golden dragons, and weapons and armor being moved out.

What's even more outrageous is that this guy has no martial ethics. Before leaving, he only left three or two kittens from the craftsmen in the city, and packed up the rest, including their families, and took them away. .

There was no bloodshed. Clay Mandler's army was surprisingly very disciplined.

But Count Rune Malkor knew very well that Clay Manderly had wiped out at least fifty years of the Marko family's savings.

It can be said that the entire family's vitality was severely damaged and nothing could be done in a short period of time.

Looking at the fleet retreating on the strait, Earl Rune Malkor's forehead throbbed with veins.

He already realized what His Majesty was going to do.

After destroying the fleet in his hand, wouldn't the entire east coast of the valley be completely undefended?

So, this guy immediately sent out all the ravens in the castle to all the castles near the sea in the valley, and directly asked for compensation from the Eagle's Nest City.

Regardless of whether the Eyrie City gives it or not, this victim attitude must be shown.

As for other coastal castles, Count Rune Marko could only spread his hands.

Wish yourselves the best of luck.

The effect of the letter sent by Count Rune Marko was quite outstanding.

First of all, of the families along the coast of each castle, those who were left behind were naturally the old, weak, women and children at home. When these people saw this letter, the only way they could do it was to add insult to injury and pass the news to the heads of the Blood Sect front line.

Of course, it's the same even if the master is at home like Rune Marko.

Soon, the camp was blown up on the Blood Gate front line.

Clay Manderly raided the old anchorage, destroying all sea power in the Vale except Gulltown.

Is this a big deal?

Doesn't that mean that our fortress is always under the attack of Mandalay's army?

Immediately, Lengshui City, Snakewood City and other fortress families near the sea quickly formed an alliance and asked to lead their troops back to the family fortress.

The Earl of Runestone City, Yon Royce, who was leading the battle, had already lost his position as commander-in-chief of the Valley Army after being beaten violently by Clay. The two brothers of the Corbray family are now still under Clay Man. Staying in the prison camp of Daraa.

The current commander-in-chief of the army fell to Sir Morton Waywood of Iron Oak City.

This guy is also a staunch warrior. Moreover, his Iron Oak City is not on the seaside, and the White Harbor Fleet cannot reach him.

It doesn't matter if it's none of your business.

Therefore, this guy was very angry about Lengshui City and Snakewood City's request to leave the coalition forces and go back to defend their homes.

He believed that this was a betrayal of the entire valley. Anyone who raised such a question was an out-and-out traitor and should be thrown directly from the Moon Gate.

Such idiotic remarks naturally intensified the conflict.

The two sides immediately quarreled and attacked each other.

As the Warden of the East that no one recognized, Duke Petyr Baelish was unable to speak on this issue.

It's not that he doesn't want to, but none of these nobles pay attention to him.

In their opinion, what kind of rubbish surname is Baelish?

To put it bluntly, if little Duke Robert Arryn hadn't been in the hands of this guy now, these grumpy nobles would have told Lord Petyr to get out.

In the end, because neither side was willing to give in, the returning regiments directly ordered their troops to break away from the coalition and march towards each family's fiefdom.

However, Morton Waywood, directly ordered the remaining troops to surround the escaping troops.

Both sides moved their swords.

As a result, a major conflict broke out near the Blood Gate with more than 600 casualties.

Finally, the returning group fought their way back to their own territory.

All that was left was a pile of chicken feathers for the remaining valley nobles.

Some people realized that there might be a problem with this blood gate defense line.
