Chapter 457
"Hundreds of tons of Valyrian Steel? Where is it?" Dany looked at Imp suspiciously.
"Why, don't you believe it?" Tyrion asked with a smug expression and raised his eyebrows.
"There are only 3000 Valyrian Steel weapons in the whole world, which add up to less than 30 tons. Now you tell me that there are hundreds of tons of Valyrian Steel hidden somewhere, can I believe it?" Dany indifferently said.
"No, no, no," Tyrion waved his fingers, full of smiles, "it's not 'Hidden', it's standing on both sides of the road, everyday all hundreds of people pass by it, There are at least a million people who know it exists."
Dany was a little shocked now, and Imp didn't seem like he was talking big, so...
"Ah , I see," Connington and Aegon exclaimed at the same time, "there are hundreds of tons, and that Valyria steel statue is huge."
"Where is the statue?" Dany asked quickly.
"In Ghoyan Drohe," Connington said.
Leave Pentos and go east along the Valyrian road, about 500 kilometers, to the banks of the Little Rhoyne River, where there is an ancient Rhoynar city ruins.
Remains of the former Ghoyan Drohe.
"Have you all seen the Valyrian Steel statue?" Dany asked again.
"We've been living in seclusion upstream of Little Rhoyne for ten years! Every time we pass Ghoyan Drohe by punting, we can see the Sphinx statue on Valyrian road."
"Ah, I remember," Jorah slapped her hands and said suddenly, "When I was a mercenary for Myr and Braavos, I passed by that statue several times.
The dragon's body , the head of a woman, the Sphinx statue is lying on the ground, the base is as wide as half a double bed, three or four meters high, not 100 tons, but also 70 tons.
At the time, I wondered why there was only one statue. , very incongruous.
Then my mercenary friend told me that more than 200 years ago, Khalasar of horse men came over and took the statue of King away.”
says At this point, Big Bear was completely excited, his cheeks flushed and said: "Your Majesty, at Godsway in Vaes Dothrak, you must find the Sphinx statue with the head of the dragon body man.
The Seven is on top, two seats Valyrian Steel statues are definitely more than 100 tons. If they are all made into Valyrian Steel Sword and Valyrian Steel armor, what are we afraid of Others?"
"Yes, there were originally a pair of Sphinx statues, standing on both sides of the road, One of them was mounted on huge wooden wheels by the horse men and dragged all the way back to Vaes Dothrak," Connington said.
Listening to what they said, Dany was a little skeptical, "Are you sure it's Valyrian Steel, not ordinary steel?"
Tyrion said with absolute certainty: "Thousands of years of wind It rains, but there is no trace of rust, what else can it be except Valyrian Steel? And, with Valyrian's luxury, will the 'triumphal arch' be forged with steel?"
"triumphal arch? That is triumphal arch?" Aegon wondered.
Tyrion slowly nodded and said: "You can see the map of the western continent of Essos and you will understand that Ghoyan Drohe is the last Rhoynar city-state in the north.
Two thousand years ago, Rhoynar and Valyrian's war, from Valyria all the way to Festival City - which is now Sorrows.
In Festival City, Rhoyne suddenly flooded at night, drowned all Valyrian cavalry and infantry, more than ten Ten thousand people.
Well, Valyria also has cavalry, heavy cavalry, specially responsible for clearing the crossbow array on the battlefield, and then the dragon group swoops down, Raging Inferno Blazing Praire."
Dany touched the chin pondered, and said casually: "didn't expect you even know Valyrian's tactics."
These words seemed to irritate Imp's itch, and he said with a bright face, "I As I said, I am a dragon expert.
Dragons are not invincible.
Do you know why Valyrian likes dragons to attack?
Three hundred per battle One dragon, one hundred dragons, scare people to death."
"Just to scare people!" Tyrion said proudly: "This is a Valyrian tactic, hundreds of dragons covering the heavens, shielding the sun, below The soldiers were afraid, and the ballista had no heart to control the ballista.
In the era before the Scorpion was invented by Maester, the ballista could kill the dragon - the Dorne killed the centenarian Meraxes It's an example."
"That's because the Dorne people had good luck and just hit the dragon's eye. When a dragon became an adult, ordinary bows and arrows and even ballistas couldn't break his scales.
Field of Fire, do you think your ancestors didn't prepare ballistas? Too bad they couldn't even break the scales." Old Aemon frowned.
Well, Field of Fire that battle was, Targaryen VSesterlands Lannister + Highgarden Gardener.
It was also after the war that Lannister acknowledged allegiance to Targaryen and served as a good minister for three hundred years.
Tyrion sighed then said, "Look at Big Black, now his eyes are as big as the mouth of a bowl; in the future, as he gets bigger and bigger, his eyes will inevitably grow.
An eyeball bigger than a window is a deadly weak spot?
Any qualified archer can shoot a ballista at a window 200 meters away, right? Right?
When dragon breathes fire, his mouth is down, his head is down, and his eyes are down on the target, right?
If he can stare at you, it means his The eyes are already exposed to you.
As long as you are not afraid of death and have a strong will, you will definitely be able to shoot him - whether you shoot or not is another matter.
After all, Dragonflame's attack The range is never as far as the arrow, and before the fire comes, the last arrow will definitely be shot."
Old Aemon was speechless, Dany looked back at Big Black and Little Green's huge shining eyes, looked thoughtful.
Tyrion continued: "Dragon is powerful, but not invincible, and the Valyrian knew this, so they formed the second only to Rhoynar's iron cavalry.
dragon's Dragon's Might gang Our heavy cavalry suppresses the opponent's heavy cavalry, and our heavy cavalry helps dragon to clean up the array of archers and crossbow machines. Such mutual cooperation is the real reason why Valyria is unrivalled throughout the world."
"How do you know These?" Aegon asked in shock.
“Books, Cyvasse chess,” Tyrion said.
"Uh, Cyvasse?" Aegon looked weird.
"hehe!" Tyrion's black and blue eyes flashed bright light, lightly said with a smile: "Do you know who invented Cyvasse chess?"
"Volantene," Aegon said.
“No, they were Valyrians back then!” Tyrion emphasized.
“The chess and card rules set by Valyrian oneself: the dragon eats the elephant, the elephant eats the heavy cavalry, the heavy cavalry eats the trebuchet, the archer and the siege scale, then the trebuchet eats the dragon, and the siege scale also eats the dragon
Valyrian formulates such a rule, which means that in the countless wars they conquered the world, they must have encountered the situation where the trebuchet threw the broken head of the dragon, and the steel crossbow shot through the vital point of the dragon.”
Looking at the silent listening crowd, Tyrion smiled proudly, turned to Aegon and said, "So, do you know why I can easily beat you every time I play chess?
Because I have mastered it. As a rule, dragons should never be too far away from heavy cavalry.
Knowing this, you must win more and lose less when playing Cyvasse.
The reason why you lose is also because of the opponent Knows the rule, and does it better than you."
At this point, even Dany had to be impressed by dwarf.
This guy is so smart, it's easy to see the core truth behind the problem!
Tyrion read the Dragon Queen's eyes, which he enjoyed immensely.
Unable to help, he winked at the Queen and smiled.
Dany's face was sullen, and a basin of ice water poured down on his head: "So, you are almost dead now, what are you doing to show off?"
"oh!" Tyrion The proud expression on his face instantly solidified, cracked and fell off, revealing a bitter melon face whose sorrow was no greater than his heart's death.
He sighed, "I know, it's too late to say anything. I just want to complain, Queen, you shouldn't have made me Wildfire General, General dragon is for me."
>
"Okay, stop talking, explain to me about the triumphal arch."
Dany waved his hand and said angrily.
Tyrion said feebly: "Vengeance from Mother Rhoyne for the flood that engulfed the Festival City of a hundred thousand Valyrians.
Then Valyrians took their revenge, too, against Rhoynar.
Hundreds of Dragonlords rode the Demon Dragon up the river, from south to north, burning every village and city along the way, and Ghoyan Drohe was the last castle on Little Rhoyne.
The When Ghoyan Drohe burns to ruins, it means that the war between Valyria and Rhoynar is officially over, and Valyria is victorious.
That's why they built the Sphinx statue outside the city of Ghoyan Drohe.
That is the triumphal arch of the Valyrian, a monument to the destruction of a great nation!"
"It makes sense!" Dragon Queen beautiful eyes brilliance again and again, "the statue may be forged by Valyrian Steel, two hundred tons!"
"Valyrian is too extravagant." Old Aemon exclaimed.
"I don't think they're luxurious enough!" Dany exclaimed.
"hehe..." Tyrion chuckled lowly, "Your Majesty, have you ever thought, if the statue could melt, why would Qohor next door let it go?
Even horse men can transport statues to Vaes Dothrak on giant wooden wheels, but Qohor in Smith's City can't?"
"What, you know why?" Dany calmed down, asked.
"I don't know why, but I'm sure all the Smiths in Qohor can't melt it!" Tyrion affirmed.
"deng deng deng..." Several people were talking, and Hattur walked up the stairs with heavy steps.
After bowing respectfully, he said, "Your Majesty, fortunately you survived, the old man did it."
"So soon?" Tyrion was surprised.
"Ai, he just got a trick from me 'dragonfly touches the water lightly' and he's scared."
Hattur winter melon showed a bit of loneliness on his face and sighed. : "At this time, I was really looking forward to meeting another Faceless Men. I have dragon slaying skills, but there are only a group of snakes, insects, mice and ants in front of me. It's so... lonely."
Tyrion's expression was shocked, and his eyes were in a trance. This tall and reckless man seemed to have transformed into a peerless swordsman with Eguanbo belt, long hair and long beard, lonely and lonely.
On a full moon night, standing proudly on the top of a lonely peak, with long hair and robes swaying in the wind, he held his sword and looked down at the mountains in loneliness.
"Okay, just bring Smith here, I have something to ask him."
Dragon Queen's impatient snarl brought Tyrion back to reality.
He looked more closely, and the reckless man was still a reckless man, vulgar and ugly, and the Earl Butcher could be called "Slaver's Bay Shuangsha".
Ten minutes later, the two Unsullied returned with Smith Tobho in hand.
Old Smith looked pale, but his eyes were a little dazed, but he didn't change much. His plaid robe was not stained with blood, nor was there any sign of being beaten by a whip.
Dragon Queen full of smiles greeted him and instructed graciously: "Bring a chair for Grandmaster Tobho, Master is a distinguished guest, how can you let him stand? Jhiqui, make a pot of Yi Ti black tea for Master ."
Seeing Dragon Queen's sweet smile, the muscles on Smith Master's slender face twitched a few times, forcing a humble maid-like smile, saying: "Your Majesty, what do you want to know, little one? People know everything and say everything.”
