The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire

At the command of Bronze Jon, Earl Fred's three sons and his third son climbed over the fence slightly higher than their waists. Only the second son who was protecting him and holding the knight's shield stayed.

Most of the Valley Knights who climbed over the fence fell directly to the mud. The clumsy heavy armor and the exhausted physical strength were unable to land while still stabilizing their bodies and not falling... They were falling to the ground. After that, it was extremely difficult to even get back up.

"O Gods!" Bronze Jon roared in extreme grief. Countless long weapons fell on them, and his eyes were split.

The essence of the Valley Knights gathered here. Before Bronze Yohn could change his order, they slashed their swords at the wooden stakes in front of them.

The too dense military formation gave the Valley Knights no room to dodge when faced with the spears thrust from behind the fence.

The advancement of the Valley Knights was blocked, and the formation became more dense... When one person fell in front, several people, or even a large group of people, would fall with him.

Finally, many holes were cut in the fence by the Vale Knight who was not afraid of sacrifice, but most of them were repaired by the fallen body of the Vale Knight.

The killing continues, and this place is already the seventh level of hell for the Valley Knights.

The pride of the Valley Knights allowed them to persevere until now. When they were trudging through the quagmire under the rain of arrows, their belief in victory had already begun to waver.

The best knights of the Erin Valley gathered here. Their bodies were already exhausted and their eyes began to become empty.

Ahead, Kleb's spear and fence seemed to be an insurmountable barrier, harvesting their lives every moment.

At their feet, the wails of their companions echoed one after another, as if strangers were calling in their ears.

The knights of the valley were crowded together, and despair spread in the air, shrouding everyone's hearts like a dark cloud.

Bronze Yohn kept shouting for attack, but the pride and courage of the Vale Knight had been exhausted.

The Knights of the Valley suddenly collapsed, and their retreat was like a flood bursting its banks, out of control.

However, they forgot that there was a large mud pond behind them that they and their war horses had stepped out, which... was still a death trap for them at this time.

They were knocked down... stumbled... slipped... fell... The Valley Knights, who had exhausted all their strength, desperately fled towards the rear with the thought of escaping from this mortal hell.

Not long after, a "dark cloud" rose up from Kleb's army formation again, and struck like a strong wind towards the retreating Valley Knights.

…………

Count Royce was defeated by the savages? ! The nearly ten thousand Valley knights who stayed behind also began to stir.

Uneasiness and fear spread like a tide, and almost everyone felt as if they were shrouded in darkness.

The heir to the Hall of Longbow, Sir Jerwood Hunter, who was sitting at the back, didn't know how to deal with this unexpected situation. He was usually arrogant...but he seemed so at a loss at this moment.

"Attack!" Someone suddenly shouted, and the voice seemed particularly harsh at this moment.

Sir Hunter looked angrily in the direction of the sound, but before he could see clearly, there was another response from the military formation.

"attack!"

"Attack! Attack!"

"Attack! Attack! Attack!"

First there were a few people... then a group of people... Finally, almost everyone was shouting "attack".

They thought it was a game of hunting savages... That sudden voice made the flustered Valley Knights suddenly find a way out of the situation in front of them.

Some people galloped towards the front, and with the first one came the second... They all ran towards the direction of Kleb's army formation without receiving orders.

Sir Hunter and Lady Anya tried to stop them, but their voices were drowned in the thunder of horse hooves.

Why did Bronze Yohn let the knights of the Vale he commanded walk? That's because the wheat fields ahead are no longer a restricted area for horses, and they have to make the knights dismounted infantry.

"Gods, this is suicide!" The valley cavalry had broken away from his command, and Sir Hunter could only scream on the spot.

…………

"Attack! Attack!" Some of the cavalry shouted while slowing down their horses, using their skillful riding skills to gradually break away from the charging team.

Some of the Valley Knights who participated in the battle hired free riders to do odd jobs, a total of more than 1,000 people.

However, some of these free riders took two or three copies of the Golden Dragon, and it was they who suddenly shouted the slogan of attack.

To them... what they get from the Valley Knights who hire them is just a small amount of money, which is far less than the other or two other employment fees they get in private.

Moreover, the task is very simple.

Someone came to them in private and said: This war is known to all seven countries. Only by killing the wild people of the Crab Claw Peninsula who dare to provoke can they be worthy of the nobility and honor of the Valley Knights. Their mission is to secretly encourage... to use The sword in the hand of the knight of the valley drains as much blood as possible from the wild men of the Crab Claw Peninsula.

When many people were still worrying about how to get this rich golden dragon, another person came to them again: he told them what slogans to shout when, and these slogans can be summed up as... The true knight of the valley will never Back away.

After thinking about it, it seems that all employers have the same goal...? As a result, some lucky freelancers have received a double windfall with peace of mind.

Therefore, the committed free riders encouraged the Valley Knights to fight decisively at the right time and in accordance with their private agreement.

As for what will be the consequences after launching a decisive battle...how could the noble knights lose to those savages? Even if there are some setbacks, it is absolutely impossible to lose this battle that is related to the honor of the valley.

Then why did you slip away from the charging team? Free riders are only hired to do odd jobs, and they are not eligible to participate in the honorable battle that belongs to the Valley Knights.

…………

Who were those two men who secretly bribed these free riders? One is Littlefinger and the other is Lord Grimm.

Littlefinger's purpose is to make both the Crab Claw Peninsula and the Righteous lose. In other words, he hopes that both parties will perish together. This result will make it easier for him to hold the control of the valley in his hands.

As for Green's goal, he hopes to eliminate as many obstacles as possible for the next valley conquest in this rare battlefield.

Therefore, both Green and Littlefinger used covert means that seemed to be harmless on the surface, which intensified the intensity of the war.

…………

…………

"For the glory of the Vale of Arryn!"

The knights of the valley struggled forward in the muddy ground, the neighing of the horses and the shouts of the cavalry intertwined.

However, the pride and courage of the knights alone could not make the horses move smoothly on the muddy pond. More and more war horses suddenly fell to the ground, throwing the knights on the saddle out.

"For the glory of the Valley Knights!"

There were more and more frightened horses. The valley knights tried to control their horses, but everything was in vain. They became more crazy, bumping around, and the cavalry formation suddenly became chaotic.

Beep-beep, beep-beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, this is the trumpet of retreat.

Most of the cavalry were completely awakened by the sound of the retreating bugle, and they had to admit in despair... The Valley Knights were really defeated. They lost to the despicable savages.

But there are still many people who ignore the retreat bugle like gamblers who have lost all their property. They cannot accept that the Knights of the Valley have lost to the wild men of the Crab Claw Peninsula. They want to continue to move forward for the glory of Erin Valley.

This also brought even greater chaos to the Valley Knights.

…………

Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu, Kleb's long bugle sound echoed on the battlefield.

More than 1,000 Crab Claw Peninsula warriors, mainly members of the Klebo tribe, walked out of the battle formation under the command of Emparo Sones. Their weapons were mainly armor-piercing weapons such as page hammers, war hammers, and battle axes.

Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu, the bugle sounded soon again, and more than 500 Kleb spearmen walked out of the military formation and followed closely behind.

Their target was the Valemen lying on the mud, wailing and struggling. Lord Green's order was - no prisoners needed.

…………

…………

That night, the camp of the Alliance of Justice.

Countess Anya Waywood's eyes were red and she cried: "Gods, Lord Yorn... is he really... how could this be like this?! How dare they... how dare they..."

Sir Jerwood Hunter said solemnly: "With Earl Royce's status in the Seven Kingdoms, no matter where he is, even as a prisoner, he should be treated with respect and courtesy."

He looked at Lord Holden Redford and continued: "Earl Holden, could it be that... there was a mistake? The Kleb family..."

After a pause, he added: "Half-savages are not real savages after all."

Lord Holden Redford stared at the brazier in silence. After being silent for a long time, he spoke with a trembling voice: "My son, he, his son, are all dead, really all dead."

"Gods forgive me..." Mrs. Anya closed her eyelids sadly.

Ser Jerwood stood up suddenly, paused, and said hoarsely: "This is murder! This is a crime! His crime is unforgivable! We must protest to King Joffrey and ask for it to be witnessed by the seven gods. Justly judge Green Kleb for his crimes!"

"The Red Keep?"

Earl Horton sighed feebly and said: "The current Red Keep is not the place where Lord Jon Arryn was when he was alive. If the old Duke is still there... oh... if he is still there... who dares Challenge the valley, does Kleb dare?"

He shook his head and added: "Before King Joffrey came of age, everyone knew that the Red Keep belonged to the Lannister family, and Earl Crabb was a favorite of Queen Cersei. Maybe they would regard our protest as It’s a joke.”

Lady Anya reminded: "Earl Horton, we must protest to the Red Castle. We must let the Seven Kingdoms know about Earl Kleb's barbaric atrocities in the valley as soon as possible."

After saying that, she couldn't help but murmured: "Seven levels of hell..."

Earl Horton said sadly: "Today is a battle known to all the seven countries. I'm worried that they will laugh at the honor of the Valley Knights..."

Mrs. Anya shook her head slightly, and reminded again: "Earl Horton, I can understand your concerns, but... who can accept such an appalling result? Almost all the knight families in the Erin Valley who have inherited it for thousands of years... In just half a day, they It will disappear forever. This is a barbaric act that the gods cannot forgive... This can no longer be explained by just an excuse for a war. Every good person in the Seven Kingdoms will not forgive this cruel atrocity."

Earl Horton nodded slightly and said: "Indeed, this is no longer a matter of the kingdom's laws, wise Lady Anya."

Sir Jerwood said bitterly: "All the people of Crab Claw Peninsula must pay with their blood!"

Mrs. Anya sighed and said, "We have to deal with the Red Castle first..."

Mrs. Anya's words were interrupted by the sudden movement outside the tent.

Not long after, Leonor Corbray, Earl of Hearts City, strode in. As he walked, he said: "Good night, gentlemen, please forgive me for disturbing you."

"Lord Corbray?"

"You should ask the guard to inform you before you come in. This is basic etiquette."

"Why are you here?"

Count Leonor first sat down at the empty seat beside him, then he glanced at the three people with solemn expressions and said: "I can feel the grief emanating from here from a very far away place. As a member of the same Aylin family, Sir, I have no choice but to disturb you."

Lady Anya, Earl Horton, and Sir Jerwood looked at each other, and Lady Anya said: "Earl Corbray, I would rather see a frank character from a man in the valley, rather than an insincere excuse."

Earl Leonor shrugged and said: "Lady Anya, Earl Horton, Sir Jerwood, in the name of the Duke of Eagle's Nest City, I have brought reinforcements to you tonight."

Earl Horton frowned and said, "Duke Robert?"

"Following Mrs. Anya's instructions, I will be more direct..."

Count Leonor raised the corners of his lips and continued: "It was Duke Robert's adoptive father, Lord Baelish, who ordered me to send support to the Alliance of the Just."

Sir Jerwood sneered and said: "You really came in time. I have to tell you... Lord Corbray, you are late."

Count Leonor spread his hands and said: "It is precisely because of the defeat of the Alliance of the Just that I have the temerity to appear here... According to Lord Petyr's instructions, if you win, my mission is to recover the fallen Seagull Town in the hands of savages, and then get back your own things."

Sir Jerwood snorted coldly and said: "We will take back Seagull Town ourselves. The Alliance of the Just will never accept Lysa Tully's help. We have not forgotten that she was the murderer who poisoned Lord Jon Arryn."

Lady Anya echoed: "Earl Corbray, as vassals of the Arryn family, we must let the murderer get the justice he deserves."

Earl Horton nodded and expressed his attitude.

Earl Leonor sighed, paused, his expression became serious, and said: "Lady Anya, Earl Horton, Sir Jerwood, I want to tell you... Not long ago, Lysa Tullin could not forgive herself. He chose to die due to the sins he committed..."
