The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire

Chapter 447: The Stranger's Call

"Hey, I'm done baking."

Sir Monton, who occasionally worked part-time as the lord's cook, entered the tent carrying a pot of roasted meat.

Brienne moved the small round table to the brazier. She went to get the jug and wine glasses, while Munton put the fragrant roast lamb on the table.

Green sat down, took a bite, and said, "It's delicious. Your skills are getting better and better."

Sir Monton scratched his head and laughed.

Green smiled, picked up the wine glass and took a sip of Summer Red, and then said: "Monton, what is King's Landing... to Kleb?"

Mengton's eyes that seemed to lack the light of wisdom seemed to be thinking seriously. He paused and replied: "Your new home?"

Hearing this, Green couldn't help but laugh: "That's a good answer."

He looked at the scarce talent on the Crab Claw Peninsula—Sir Monton, who was both capable of fighting and literate, and then said: "The two thousand Crab Claw Peninsula soldiers stationed in the north of the Steel Gate lack a leader. You will set off tomorrow."

Is he going to become the commander of the corps?

This is his dream (Chapter 88)!

Meng Dunxian, who had dull eyes, looked at the large piece of barbecue in his hand, then put it into his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it directly.

Then, with a bang, the fat and fat Sir Mengding knelt down to the lord.

"Lord, thank you for your gift, I am at your disposal!"

Green leaned back in his chair, tapped his chin, and said, "I feel your loyalty. Get up, my warrior."

After Sir Monton sat down again, Green continued: "I will allocate you ten knights of the valley and five knights of the river to go to King's Landing with you. From now on, they will all be led by you."

Sir Monton's big head nodded, and Green said again: "My loyal Sir, in your eyes, what are the knights of the valley and the river?"

Mengton once again scratched his head with his big fat hands, thought for a while, and said naively: "Sir, their loyalty is...not as good as the people of Crab Claw Peninsula, well, everyone says so."

Green's brown eyes moved slightly. He looked at Menton, tapped his chin, and said: "Loyalty needs to be cultivated, and cultivating loyalty cannot be separated from my kindness, generosity, and justice."

After a slight pause, he continued: "Among them, the fairness of Kleb's Law is particularly important. I hope you can remember this and let the knights in the valley and rivers receive fair "treatment" in the regiment you command. .Always remember that you have only one identity, and that is Kleb’s loyal warriors.”

"Lord Green, I will always remember this."

After eating the barbecue, Green first wrote a letter to his cousin Lyanna Crabb in the manor outside Whispering City.

In addition to greetings, he also expressed concern for Lyanna's one-year-old illegitimate daughter in the letter.

The quill in Green's hand paused, and the ink-stained pen tip scratched the parchment. At the end of the letter, in accordance with his cousin's request, he named his daughter--Isabel.

When handing the written letter to Brienne, Green told her, the only woman around him: "Pick some beautiful jewelry among my trophies and have someone send it with the letter. Lyanna likes sapphires." ”

After taking the letter, Brienne moved her plump lips, but in the end she turned around and left without making a sound.

Then Green called in his temporary advisory group in the Riverlands (Chapter 434).

The main content of their discussion today is still the issue of restoring production in the riverlands. As the number of people settling in the riverlands increases, things have become extremely complicated.

Green rubbed his brows. He needed a reliable Minister of Agriculture.

…………

While Green was patiently discussing government affairs with his maester advisory group, Lord Eddard Stark left Winterfell and headed north, preparing to go to the Wall to meet Stannis Baratheon.

…………

At about the same time, Asha Greyjoy gathered her men on a coast south of Ironborn Bay and set sail towards the Ten Towers City in the Iron Islands.

…………

At about the same time, under the arrangement of Cersei Lannister, Osney Kettleblack and others took the initiative to go to the Great Sept of Baelor and confessed their crimes to the High Sparrow under the witness of the Seven Gods.

Moreover, Cersei proposed at the Royal Council that the Light of Highgarden, the King's fiancée, and Margaery Tyrell, representing the royal family, would bless the knights and soldiers of the Kingdom fighting under Riverrun in the Great Sept of Baelor for seven days and seven nights. of prayer.

Rumor has it that under the power of the Queen Regent, Little Rose of Highgarden bid farewell to the king, put on simple clothes, took several rose maids, and was escorted into the Great Sept of Baelor by gold and red robes.

…………

…………

The sun was setting in the west, and the candles in the candelabra in the Duke's tent were lit.

Bachelor Arlando's bachelor's necklace jingled softly. He put down the letter in his hand and said with a hint of surprise: "Lord Green, this...according to what Miss Tyrell wrote, after a while, all the rose bread sent to King's Landing will be delivered to you." Transfer to the Riverlands?"

Green nodded slightly and said: "I need the bachelor to follow my troops south, establish a new camp near the bridge where the Blackwater River meets the Golden Road (the border between the Riverlands and the Reach), and assist them in receiving Rose’s Bread.”

"Gods bless Miss Tyrell."

After sighing with emotion, Bachelor Alando glanced at the letter again and said, "Sir Green, the 'some time' mentioned here does not have a specific time."

After a moment of silence, Green spoke slowly: "Miss Margery seems to be waiting for the opportunity. Naturally, we should prepare as soon as possible."

The young Bachelor Orfo stood up and volunteered: "Lord Green, please allow me and my assistant bachelor to go. Since I travel often, they are all good at equestrian skills."

…………

In the morning, the sky was densely shrouded by thick dark clouds, as if a huge gray curtain hung down, and a depressing atmosphere filled the air.

Today is the third day since Frey's reinforcements arrived at Lannister Camp.

Mainly composed of two thousand Frey soldiers brought by Lord Emmon Frey, and under the command of Davon Lannister, the Lannister-Frey coalition launched a fierce siege.

The horns resounded loudly through the sky, and the shouts of killing shook the heaven and the earth.

The smell of blood spread everywhere. The Tully soldiers guarding the sluice waited for Brynden's order. With slogans in their mouths, they worked together to turn the winch that controlled the sluice gate.

Crunchy--

The huge sluice slowly rose, making a dull and thick sound, like the low moan of an ancient behemoth waking up.

Immediately afterwards, the raging river water roared out of the gate like a wild beast being released.

The water flow hit the obstacles, making a loud "bang bang" sound, white waves splashed high, and the river water rushed towards the ditch under the Flowing City with an unstoppable force.

The earth trembled under the powerful impact, and the whistling wind and the sound of water flow were intertwined, as if it was the call of a stranger.
