Chapter 228 Breaking the City of the Horse King
Seeing this scene, Missandei suddenly let out a cry of surprise, and the Unsullied nearby could not help but be moved by it.
Even Gray Worm himself raised his arms in shock, staring blankly at the broken ground and uninjured fists.
Daenerys had a satisfied smile on her face. Although the serum had not yet been tested on humans, it could already appear in the [Pavilion of Rare Treasures], indicating that its safety and stability had already been verified by the void.
This is why Daenerys gave the serum as a reward for Gray Worm.
After being strengthened by the serum, Gray Worm's strength and physique have been greatly enhanced, but this is not Daenerys' reward. The real reward is another No. 2 serum with the ability to heal the body...
"Grey Worm."
Daenerys called with a chuckle.
Gray Worm came to his senses immediately, knelt down on one knee and lowered his head.
"Your Majesty the Queen, thank you for your reward. I will be responsible for repairing the damaged stone bricks——"
"It doesn't matter!" Daenerys interrupted him with a smile and said jokingly, "Compared to this, don't you have other feelings, such as something suddenly added to your body..."
Gray Worm was slightly startled when he heard this, and then his expression suddenly became excited.
He suddenly kneeled on the ground with his other knee, and lay on the ground, as if worshiping Daenerys.
Missandei was at a loss, but Daenerys smiled and called her back, then ordered Gray Worm to return to the team.
Gray Worm kowtowed twice and walked toward the Unsullied queue with excitement on his face.
The Unsullied who were waiting there were a little surprised. They had never seen Gray Worm like this before.
Gray Worm did not hide it from them, and immediately proudly let a companion touch his crotch.
The companion stretched out his hand in surprise, then his eyes widened, and he couldn't help but whisper something excitedly.
Soon, the news that Gray Worm had turned into a man again spread throughout the hall, and all the Unsullied could not help but whisper.
This was a state of disgrace that the Unsullied had never seen before, but Daenerys didn't care and allowed it to happen with a smile.
Zuo Yu curled her lips and whispered: "It seems that this No. 2 serum will have to be renamed [Eunuch Gospel] in the future!"
Zhao Lihe and Daenerys both laughed.
Zuo Yu patted the wooden chair under him, stood up, and said with a chuckle: "Okay, the three portals in the three worlds have been set up. Let's leave the business transactions and officer training to my subordinates. , I want to go back to the world under one person..."
Daenerys was slightly startled and said quickly: "It's so fast. Why don't you stay a few more days?"
"No." Zuo Yu shook his head and explained, "Time flows faster in the world under one person. After I delayed it for so long, I guess Li Yun has already left Wudang Mountain and is preparing to participate in the plot of Chen Duo."
Zhao Lihe said softly: "I have to go back and prepare for going south."
Zuo Yu raised her eyebrows, a little surprised: "Are you going to speed up the pace of reunification?"
"Yeah." Zhao Lihe nodded and said with a smile, "You have already obtained the development rights in the Americas. If I were still hanging around in Asia, wouldn't I be laughed at?"
"how could be?"
Zuo Yu shook his head: "I know what you are doing. Since ancient times, China has always found it easy to conquer a country, but difficult to conquer a country. In order to solve this problem, you build railways wherever you attack. This rhythm is very good. There’s no need to forcefully speed up for me.”
"Stop being narcissistic, I didn't do this just for you."
Zhao Lihe shook his head: "The reason why I delayed the progress of unifying the country was not just to build the railway, but also the problem of talent shortage - China is too big, and the number of officials under me is seriously insufficient. Unless I use those old literati , otherwise it will be difficult to spread throughout the country, but I don’t want to use these old literati. If nothing else, I can’t trust them just to redistribute land for the people.”
"Then why are you speeding up?"
"Of course it's because of this..."
Zhao Lihe looked at the maids in the hall, or rather the brocade boxes they touched in their hands, and said calmly: "Those rotten scholars in the south of the Yangtze River think that I need their help in governing the country because of the insufficient number of officials under my command. Therefore, they have always been confident and feel that I need them to help me govern the country." I will not kill them, but now I have decided that I will extract their governance experience and use memory items to quickly create a group of young officials."
"There are also eunuchs in Kyoto. Many of them are outstanding officials, but they are missing something, so they are looked down upon by others. If I use the No. 2 serum to give them some hope, they should be able to take the initiative to become the officials I want. The appearance of..."
"I see." Zuo Yu nodded and said with a smile, "Okay then, I will ask them to study the one-time No. 2 serum when I get back and sell it as a medicine that can cure broken arms and limbs. It should have great prospects. Bar."
"He is indeed a businessman!"
Zhao Lihe gave a thumbs up in approval.
…
…
Three days later, Daenerys, wearing a white gauze skirt and a robe made of white lion skin, stood on the balcony of Qarth's palace, overlooking the city and kingdom that belonged to her below in the morning sunshine.
Behind her, the young maid Missandei hurried over, her face rosy, and there seemed to be a hint of spring in her brows.
Daenerys turned her head, glanced at her, and frowned: "Did you sleep with Gray Worm?"
Missandei was slightly startled, and quickly knelt on the ground, explaining in a panic: "No, Your Majesty, it's just...just a kiss..."
"Okay, look, I scared you. I don't mean to blame you."
Daenerys smiled, stretched out her hand to pull her up, and said warmly: "You are still young. Doing such a thing is not good for your health."
Missandei gritted her teeth and plucked up the courage to say, "Your Majesty, I am already 15. I can already become a mother in my hometown."
Can I become a mother at 15?
Daenerys fell silent, not knowing how to answer.
It is true that the kingdom expanded much faster under her rule than Zhao Lihe, but for the same reason, she ignored many aspects of the problem.
When she thought about it carefully, except for the new ruler on top of her head, the entire continent of Essos seemed to be the same as before she traveled through it.
In other words, she only changed the fate of some people around her, but Zhao Lihe changed the fate of the entire country and even civilization.
The decision made Daenerys feel a little ashamed.
"Maybe I should delay my steps and govern the country properly..."
Just as Daenerys was thinking this, she suddenly received another battle report from the front line.
Located at the foot of the Mother Mountain on the other side of the Dothraki Sea, the only city of the Dothraki people, the city of Horse King Vaes Dothraki, has been successfully attacked by her Iron Legion. It has carved stone tents and marble steps. The pyramids were shattered by artillery, and the grass-woven mansions and wooden towers as big as castles were ablaze.
The roar of muskets continued, and the Dothraki warriors guarding the city died on the road to charge.
It happened that the horse king Drogo Khal who was stationed nearby heard the news and came with one hundred thousand cavalry.
But before they could rush in front of the Unsullied, more than half of them were killed or injured in the minefields laid by the Unsullied in advance. The remaining cavalry were also in a mess amidst the roar of tanks and artillery. The panicked horses collided and trampled each other. A comical gesture of exiting the battlefield.
At the same time, under the cover of the Iron Legion, the three giant dragons flapped their dragon wings, spit out hot dragon flames of different colors, and chased the Dothraki warriors who fled in panic as if playfully.
After this battle, Vaes Dothraki, which had no walls, fell completely.
The Dothraki warriors guarding the city were frightened, and surrendered together with the rest of Khal Drogo's army who rushed to the battlefield, expressing their willingness to surrender to the Iron Legion and the master of the three-headed dragon before them.
Currently, the Unsullied are searching for the treasures in Vaes Dothraki, and plan to combine these treasures with the two giant bronze horses that symbolize the "City of the Horse King", as well as the Zhuo found in the minefield. Gorkaol's half-broken body was brought back to Qarth.
"In other words, now I have countless more Dothraki cavalry..."
Daenerys sighed and placed the battle report in her hand on the white quartz table.
Due to Dothraki folk customs and traditions, these people are predatory, bloodthirsty and cruel, which is completely opposite to the people Daenerys hopes to have. But since they have surrendered, shouldn't they be given a chance to change their ways?
But if this is the case, what should they do with the innocent people who died in their hands?
Daenerys had a headache. Sure enough, governing the country was not as simple as she imagined.
At this moment, the void jade medal hanging on her waist suddenly vibrated.
Daenerys picked it up and looked at it, and found that it was the news from Lin Zhongtian.
"Are you interested in participating in the Battle of Five Armies?"
Daenerys was slightly startled and quickly replied: "What do you mean?"
Lin Zhongtian replied: "Literally, Thranduil was absent from the Battle of the Five Armies due to my relationship with the native world traveler. I discussed it with Ilúvatar and decided not to disturb the Elf King Thranduil. But let you fill Thranduil’s vacancy.”
"How about it, little Dani, are you interested?"
