The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire

Chapter 18 Semi-military-style farm

Bernard Brun of the Dreadden was a squire to Lord Alyn Stokeworth, who served as Hand of the King to Aegon I.

During the Battle of Ruby Banks in the Reaver War, Houses Crabb and Brune of the Crab Claw Peninsula fought side by side for Prince Rhaegar Targaryen.

They are all model loyal ministers of the Julong family and their confidants.

The new Baratheon dynasty is miserable, the worst of the worst.

……………………

Located on a towering cliff, with a height of more than 40 meters, the thick city gate of Terror Cave Fort was tightly closed. Green decisively gave up his plan to attack and occupy it.

Relying on conventional siege methods to capture a well-defended castle, Green felt that the price was too high. The road to hegemony cannot avoid siege warfare. Green, who does not have a dragon, needs to prepare more unconventional siege methods and methods.

The current Greene is unprepared for the siege of Terror Cave Castle. If there is a chance, he will make a big move, and if there is no chance, he will decisively give up.

Green comforted himself that they were all poor lords, so why should the poor embarrass the poor.

"When someone dares to challenge you, you should resolutely respond with iron and blood. When they kneel down and surrender, you must help them up with your own hands, otherwise no one will be willing to submit."

With the words in his memory replaying in his mind, he said to Knight Mason: "Mason, I'll leave it to you next. The ransom for the captives of the Brun family will be in accordance with the past rules, considering that they have fought alongside Targaryen. For your sake, go around them once this time and warn them there will be no next time.”

Mason nodded.

Green then quietly ordered Knight Pell: "Leave the captives to Amparo for escort. Your survey corps will stay and continue to attack the savage tribe, especially those who have good relations with the Brun family. Just like last time, destroy the tribe's garrison and destroy the population." To move out, the old land of Klebo will need a lot of farmers."

The semi-military-style farm planned by Green will be implemented by the Mason Knight in the newly recovered Kleb land.

Over time Kleb's semi-military farmstead would spread over all the arable land in the eastern region of the Crab Claw Peninsula.

"As you command, my lord."

Green nodded and continued: "The savage tribe near Kleb's old land has been defeated by us. The main combat force will not be fierce. However, I still ask you to treat every battle with caution. Good encounter. The hunters are sucked into the Survey Corps, recruiting soldiers while attacking the savages. This is a rare opportunity to train soldiers."

Pell: "My lord, I will obey your orders. The Brun family..."

Green shook the reins and moved the horse to the other side. Knight Pell urged the horse to follow.

Green and Pell rode horses side by side: "Pell, you always make me feel relaxed when communicating with you. Yes, although we lost this time, the Bren family will not surrender to me. For a period of time, Kleb There will be no power that can threaten Kleb in the old land, so we can digest the results of the victory. At the same time..."

"Except for the 20 horses I selected to take back, I will allocate all the remaining horses to you. The Survey Corps needs speed even more."

Green turned his head and glanced at the Dread Cave Castle again: "Kleb can't stop. We need to keep looting to support the population of the new and old territories. We are expanding too fast, and the farmland cannot supply too many people. "

"The only nobles in the Eastern Crab Claw Peninsula who can cause us trouble are the Bren family, which I cannot tolerate. It is enough for the master of the Eastern Crab Claw Peninsula to have one Kleb."

"Mason will stay and be responsible for the development of the old land. I will order him to cooperate with your conquest. Start with the savage tribes that have good relations with the Bren family and conquer them one by one. I want you to blockade the Bren family and make it difficult for them to move. , until it surrenders or disappears.”

A smile appeared on Green's lips, and he patted Pell on the shoulder: "I'm about to leave for King's Landing. I'm helpless and can only rely on you. Fortunately, you are here. Your loyalty and ability have always been with me. It’s the most reassuring.”

"Knight Pell, for the glory of Kleb."

Pell's eyebrows were solemn, he put his palms on his chest, nodded and saluted: "My sword will always serve you!"

Menton Weishui was carrying a large buckler on his back, a war hammer on his waist, and was chewing smoked sausage.

Reina on the side said helplessly: "Pang Meng, aren't you full? Why do you keep eating?"

Mengton Weishui replied naively: "Ah, I'm scared of hunger. I used to never have enough to eat, but things are much better now. Since I followed the master, I haven't been hungry anymore."

Reina's beautiful eyes rolled her eyes at Mengton: "I've never eaten enough and you're still so fat!"

Mengton Weishui scratched the back of his head: "Hehe..."

Reina's eyes moved slightly slyly: "Meng Pang, if you keep eating like this...if you eat too much, be careful and you will be punished by the lord."

Mengton opened a pair of eyes that seemed to lack the light of wisdom: "This...this...I know I have a big appetite, how about I take the initiative to go to the Lord to take the blame?"

Reina snorted at first and couldn't help but hold her belly and laugh, which made Menton even more confused for a while.

Fortunately, Green's voice came over in time: "Mengton, Rena is joking with you."

Green came over and patted Reina on the head: "He will take it seriously."

Lena cried out in pain and squatted down with her head in her hands. Green looked at his palms calmly.

Mengton suddenly complained loudly: "Sir! Reina is not in pain! She is pretending! I saw it! She snickered just now! I saw it!"

Menton Weishui has a beast-like intuition. On the first day he joined the Green camp, he felt that military regulations were closely related to his future.

For Menton Weishui, Green was the first person who did not dislike his large appetite, and was the first person who would no longer let him starve.

Mengton Weishui kept chewing the food in his mouth, and worked hard to memorize it by rote with his not-so-smart mind.

Just now, he was frightened by the cunning Reina for a moment, but Menton Weishui finally realized that eating too much was not against military regulations, so he naturally wanted to "retaliate".

Menton Weishui jumped on his feet and exposed it mercilessly, his big belly seemed to be heaving with waves of flesh.

How come this guy has become smarter?

Reina said miserably: "Lord Green, I beg for forgiveness...I..."

Mengton scratched his head. It seemed like he was taking too much revenge?

Green waved his hand helplessly: "Go and get Menton some more food, he will forgive you immediately."

King's Landing, a corridor in the Red Keep.

Tyrion Lannister sat on the marble guardrail beside the corridor, his short legs swaying.

Tyrion was holding the wine glass that seemed to never leave his hand, and his face was red after drinking: "Brother, think of something pleasant. You worry too much. Sometimes I suspect that your love for my sister is not normal. ."

Jaime Lannister still looked uneasily in the direction of Cersei's room again, sighed deeply, and sat on the railing too, with anger still remaining on his handsome face: "King Robert, he has forgotten what it is. Honor, I can't remember how many times he's been rough on Cersei."

Tyrion moved his butt closer to Jaime, reached out and patted Jaime's arm: "You have to understand why I stopped you. If you get involved, the result will only be worse."

James rubbed his face helplessly with his hands: "Tyrion, you are always smart and sensible."

Tyrion's eyes were deep and his tone was rare and serious: "I always think that I am the naughty Duke Tywin, but in fact she is too far behind. If nothing else, my father has always been as ruthless and cruel as a big glacier. Calm down, while Cersei's emotions are like wildfire. Our king and queen are like two fires, and they burn even more when they touch."

Jaime sighed deeply again: "I just want Cersei to live happily."
