Game of Thrones: Lord of the Deep

October 303AC.

Jack was completely disappointed with the southern nobles of Westeros.

Even when facing life and death, these people still had their own plans.

They could come up with all kinds of excuses to delay the transportation of materials, which made Jack laugh.

Jack directly issued an edict in the name of the Sea King. If the materials could not reach White Harbor within three months, they would be treated as treason, deprived of their noble titles, confiscated all property and territory, and hanged for three generations.

However, Jack's edict was not as effective as expected. There were still about 30% of the nobles who continued to delay. Obviously, they felt that they were fine after returning to their own territory.

Of course, the more important thing was that they felt that Jack did not have the energy to cause trouble for them. After all, Westeros was too big, and Jack did not have enough manpower to settle them, so they could only let it go.

So with the tacit consent of several major families, they continued to delay the materials that needed to be handed in.

Several major families all silently paid attention to Jack's movements. Once Jack was really ready to execute these nobles, they would completely shirk their responsibilities.

Of course, their promise to their vassals was to protect them.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it is the end of December in 303AC.

There are only three days left in the three months set by Jack, but nearly 30% of the nobles still have not handed in the supplies as agreed.

What disappointed and dissatisfied the other southern nobles was that Jack had not shown any intention of taking action until now. Doesn't it mean that if they delay like this, they don't have to hand in equivalent supplies?

For a time, voices of dissatisfaction with Jack appeared everywhere. Those who did not hand in the supplies were complacent, and those who handed in the supplies were indignant.

However, just one day before the deadline, the first and third fleets of Atlantis appeared at the port of King's Landing.

The third fleet came after destroying the Qarth regime, while the first fleet was well prepared. In addition to the original 6,000 people in the fleet, it also brought 5,000 Unsullied.

The appearance of the two fleets made the southern nobles who delayed the supplies feel a little uneasy.

Although they were still stubborn, their bodies were honest and went to find their lords to find out the situation.

However, as soon as the time Jack specified arrived, the list of treason was freshly released.

There were hundreds of nobles on the treason list, most of whom were viscounts.

Since the materials to be handed in were determined according to the title, some barons and earls who were unwilling to bleed were also on the list.

After learning that they were on the treason list, this group of people immediately united with the mentality that the law should not punish the masses.

However, Jack soon shattered their fantasy. Ten thousand Unsullied and three thousand cavalry, divided into five groups, rushed straight to the territories of these nobles.

These nobles who owed materials, Jack had already arranged people to count their information.

These nobles who owed materials were completely panicked. Those who were not far away immediately summoned soldiers to gather together, and at the same time contacted some nobles who handed in materials for help.

However, Westeros is now the territory of Atlantis.

These nobles who handed in materials were happy to see Jack attack them, so how could he help them with treason?

Soon, the massacre that lasted for a month began.

Including the marching time, this reckoning lasted a total of three months.

From January 304AC to early April 304AC, except for the North and the Iron Islands and Riverlands, which had long been bleeding dry, the blood in the rest of Westeros never stopped.

In just three months, thousands of people were beheaded, which was vividly called the "Bloody March Massacre".

The territories vacated after the execution of these families were taken over by the Empire, and the Empire's administrative personnel immediately took over.

And even their feudal lords had no right to intervene. If they dared to intervene, they would be treated as treason.

The gap in strength between the two sides was so great that even their feudal lords did not dare to touch his edge.

This also made the nobles of Westeros realize that their rule over Jack Poseidon was dispensable, and the other side cultivated a large number of managers on the other side of the strait.

In the eyes of the southern nobles, this was a premeditated war of conquest.

A large amount of materials and blacksmiths were concentrated in White Harbor. After the two fleets of Atlantis drove all the craftsmen and their families onto the ship, they set out on the journey back to the Sea King Island.

These craftsmen included carpenters, blacksmiths, stonemasons and other craftsmen from all walks of life. Jack would naturally not let them go.

As for the creation of giant cannons and dragon crystal shells, to be honest, these craftsmen are not needed at all. Jack does not have 1,200 giant cannons. That is just his bragging.

There are only 60 cannons in the whole of Atlantis. It is not that the output cannot be increased, but that there is no need to produce so many.

With the current military strength of Atlantis, the city-states on the continent of Essos do not have the courage to go to war with the empire, so they do not need so many cannons.

In addition, they can be manufactured at any time and the speed of cannon update and iteration is very fast. After comprehensive consideration, only 60 cannons of the first generation were manufactured, and the second generation is also nearing the end.

As for what to do with the massive materials of the southern nobles, it is natural to wait until the long night comes and lend them money.

This book is almost finished, and future chapters will be free of charge.
