Game of Thrones' opening sold the gods

Chapter 92 91. Get back the stolen land

King's Landing, Red Keep.

At this moment, several people in the throne room were arguing, and Tommen was watching from the side.

"Queen Mother, I don't recommend this. The strength of the Riverlands is much stronger than we imagined." Olenna tried her best to dissuade Cersei from seeking death.

However, Cersei is Cersei. She has once again returned to the pinnacle of power and cannot listen to the advice of others.

"The Crab Claw Peninsula was a gift from Tyrion the Kingslayer to Theon Greyjoy. They have been colluding with each other for a long time. Now I am just taking back what they stole!"

Seeing that Olenna was still going to speak, Cersei continued: "Now the vote will be taken by a show of hands, and the members of the Royal Council will vote!"

Cersei emphasized the pronunciation of the words "Council of Kings". It is obvious that Olenna is not a member of the "Council of Kings".

Then several people raised their hands to vote. There were seven people in the royal council, four people supported Cersei, and finally Pycelle also raised his hand.

In the end, Cersei finalized the plan to take back the Crab Claw Peninsula with an absolute advantage of five votes.

"Merson, release the messenger crows and let the Western Army and the Stormland nobles assemble." After saying that, Cersei turned her attention to Margaery.

The Iron Throne held by the king is purely because they have no brains, so they are fearless, especially Cersei, who is a typical "I am the Queen Regent, everyone should listen to me and submit to my feet."

It's just that until now, no absolutely powerful being has come out to declare independence and become king.

This has also caused the Iron Throne's power to plummet, and the fertile Reach has made Highgarden now the most powerful family in the south.

"That little sea monster is not simple. He now connects the Iron Islands, the Riverlands, and the North. In the future, Westeros may not only have the Iron Throne, but also the Salt Throne. God, it's really scary."

Olenna's tone was full of helplessness. Among her descendants, only Margaery was excellent, and the other descendants were hard to judge at a glance.

"Excluding the marching time, it probably won't exceed three days." Margaery said helplessly.

"Queen, your king wants to get back what belongs to him, and your king needs your help!" Cersei said begging for help, but her tone was full of threats and toughness.

Margaery sighed.

According to legal principles, when the king recruits vassals to fight for him, the vassals are obliged to put aside what they are doing and come to fight.

"And the army from the Riverlands has now returned to the Riverlands, and they are only now preparing to take back the Crab Claw Peninsula. This is really indescribable. What should we do now?"

In addition, the cause of the incident came from Robert's fiancée, and Robert killed Prince Rhaegar. Finally, after many negotiations, Robert sat on the Iron Throne.

After leaving the throne room, Olenna couldn't help but began to curse Cersei.

Faced with Margaery's vague words, Cersei glanced at Olenna coldly, smiled and said it didn't matter, as much as she could come.

It is said that Robert sat on the Iron Throne because he was a quarter of Targaryen blood, but this is only part of the reason.

Then Olenna said to Margaery: "You are the queen now. We have just begun to become the highest center of power. The Crab Claw Peninsula is very important to King's Landing!"

"There are at least 70,000 troops in the Riverlands. That little sea monster dares to attack the northern border with 50,000 people. That means there are at least 20,000 people holding on in the Riverlands."

The Iron Throne's finances did not improve because of the cessation of the war, and it was even somewhat unsustainable because of the huge debts owed by Robert.

"This is truly the stupidest woman I have ever seen. She only knows how to fight for power and has no strategic vision or structure at all. How long has the North been able to hold out in front of the Hejian Army?"

Then Cersei spoke a lot more eloquently before announcing the end of the meeting.

A glimmer of light flashed in Olenna's eyes, and she said slowly: "The Qingting Island fleet can carry fifteen thousand people. If we can get the method of making iron salt, coupled with the richness of our Reach, maybe we can

No more need for lions."

It's more about the Wolf family, the Eagle family is not interested in the Iron Throne, the Lion family is at odds with the Sand Snakes, and the Lion family also has a "Kingslayer" Kingsguard, making it even less likely to sit on the Iron Throne.

In the final analysis, if the center is weak and the local areas are strong, without the existence of a big killer like the dragon, Westeros is very likely to return to the era of the Seven Kingdoms, not to mention that everyone is concerned about the bloodline of Cersei's three children.

Know it well.

The most frightening thing is that Theon is still young and has several techniques for making money, such as something called a curved shaft plow. This extremely efficient tool is now being used in many places in Westeros.

.

If Theon really forges the Salt Throne and declares his accession to the throne in the future, it will be completely different from claiming to be King of the Iron Islands, and a war will definitely break out between the two thrones.

Olenna thought about it as she walked, and finally decided to let the River Bend gather 20,000 people to come to the king's territory.

"We can only pray to the Seven Gods that we can defeat the army of the Riverlands. The Iron Fleet of the Iron Islands seems to have gone to Essos. We can let the Arbor Fleet attack the Iron Islands."

The war in the north has been going on for a long time, and the news has also spread to the ears of the southern countries.

Margaery's expression remained unchanged and she said calmly: "His Majesty Tommen is everything to me. I will naturally do my best to help my husband. But Queen Mother, it's time to collect food soon. I'm not sure how many nobles can come forward."

Come to King's Landing."

If the Riverlands become king and become independent at that time, then in addition to the Iron Throne, the Salt Throne, and a Rose Throne is not impossible.

And if the Reach had a method for making refined salt, coupled with the rich products of the Reach, it would have enough financial resources to raise a fully armed army.

Not to mention helping Cersei repay her debt, even the maintenance of the elite army in the West is somewhat unaffordable.

Among them, the West and the Reach are the most tense, because the Vale has the Blood Gate, Dorne has natural dangers and has a good relationship with Theon.

The method of making the Quyu Plow is not complicated. After Xion popularized the Quyu Plow, he knew that it was impossible to prevent others from imitating it, so he directly manufactured a large number of Quyu Plows for sale.

But the premise is that the king is strong enough to suppress local forces.

"We have gathered 20,000 people. The storm land can have 10,000 people. Plus 20,000 from the west and 5,000 cavalry from the valley. A total of 55,000 people. It's not without a chance."

There is no Confucianism in Westeros. Just like after the Roman Empire in the ancient West fell apart, no country that broke away had ever aimed to unify the world as its goal.

If we bring more than 10,000 elites at this time, we might actually be able to get the method of making refined iron salt.

Although the Targaryen dynasty has ruled Westeros for hundreds of years, before the Dragon family came to Westeros, the Seven Kingdoms each existed independently for thousands of years.

Olenna cursed loudly: "What a fool. Tywin has not learned any of his methods, but his ability to commit suicide is not small."

Once someone declares an independent king, and the Iron Throne does not defeat this independent person immediately, then it is only a matter of time that Westeros will be divided.

What annoys Cersei the most is that the gold mines in the West are almost exhausted, which means that the Lannister family's finances will be in a huge crisis.

Olenna's idea was very simple. The Riverland army moved south, and the Iron Fleet left Essos for unknown reasons. The Iron Islands at this time must be extremely weak.

At least on the surface, the Reach is the most powerful party.

In Westeros, people value blood, surname, and family.

But the premise of all this is to benefit their own family. If there is an opportunity to become an independent king again, no one will let it go. For them, this is the greatest honor.

Back then, Aegon used the dragon to unify Westeros, and asked the kings of the Seven Kingdoms to offer their crowns and reduce them to dukes.

Now that the dragon has disappeared for a hundred years and the royal family has weakened, once someone takes the initiative and tears off the last fig leaf of the Iron Throne, Westeros will return to the "Era of the Seven Kingdoms".
