Chapter 681
Chaos of Four Kings, Renly has the strong support of the two kingdoms of Highgarden and Stormlands, and Doran is watching steadily from behind. There are 20,000 light cavalry, and the total strength is as high as 60,000. The strength is the best among the princes.
As Duke of Dragonstone, Second Stag's Fiefdom is also the basic plan of Targaryen before Aegon conquered Seven Kingdoms: Celtigar and Velaryon are the main ones, supplemented by the Crownlands minor nobles of nearby islands and peninsulas.
Weak in strength, it is at the bottom of the five kings.
Then he asked Renly to eat a peach and picked Renly's peach: he had the support of almost all Stormlands nobles, and Reach also had Florent lead a group of nobles into the account.
Today also seems to have the prototype of Chaos of Four Kings, Dragon Queen, Queen Cersei, Second Stag, King Aegon, and the new Young Wolf who wants to be king but does not compete for Iron Throne.
Dragon Queen watched from the sidelines, looking towards Westeros, full of disgust.
However, her size is too large, and Westeros people don't think she doesn't love Iron Throne, who is "first under the heavens throne", so she is not in the rivers and lakes, but the people in the rivers and lakes spread her name in awe No.
But no matter how famous she is, she insists on making soy sauce, which can barely be compared to King Balon back then.
The second generation Young Wolf, like the first generation, clearly has the power to influence the situation, but because the goal is not clear, he is very timid.
Cersei is an old player. Imp and Tywin helped him back then, but this time, he has a good husband and he is still stationed at King's Landing.
King Aegon has a part of Dragon Queen's prestige bonus, and also has many princes to join, its power is strong, just like Renly is alive.
Second Stag is still so weak, with a team of several thousand people, and the hearts of the people are still scattered.
Then Second Stag did the trick again, asking the strongest King Aegon to eat the peaches and now expertly picking his peaches.
Send peaches and pick peaches.
But well...
It's like picking Renly's peaches last time, but the peaches oneself are not necessarily happy to be picked by him.
On that day, Highgarden Tyrell led the bannermen back home, and the Stormlands nobles also dispersed, and even won Storm's End by sending out a second peach -- even if Renly ate the peach, Storm's End would keep it safe. Will be reluctant to surrender Second Stag, and Second Stag treats him to a peach.
Today, Vale nobles also expressed their dissatisfaction with oneself being "picked off" by Second Stag, and even said that between Cersei and Second Stag, they prefer Cersei.
This...
"The Vale nobles have made it clear that they don't agree with you, Riverlands Brynden Tully is Lady Sansa's grandfather, and Aegon helped him avenge him, and I'm afraid... ...
And the Dorne people, they helped Aegon because of Princess Elia, and the Golden Company couldn't buy it.
Your Majesty, your idea is very good, I'm afraid it's hard to believe Everyone!"
The first discussion was over, and as soon as he returned to the guest room castle, Onion Knight told oneself's concerns.
"Davos, you are my Hand of the King, and I will not hide my oneself thoughts from you."
Second Stag walked to the window and looked out at the courtyard where the stakes were The huge Wyvern on the ground sighed: "I can't wait, something that shouldn't have appeared.
Originally supported by Iron Bank, I can calmly recruit mercenaries, and then go south to The Neck with the support of Jon Stark. .
Take down The Twins first, seize a large amount of food and property for military funding - just like Aegon did, I heard that they got millions of Golden Dragon and hundreds of thousands of tons in The Twins. Food.
This batch of military funds is enough to spend 100,000 army for two years, more than enough to win King's Landing.
The trial of Walder Frey can also win the hearts of Riverlands and North, and win North and Riverlands The nobility's allegiance, and then my 20,000 mercenaries landed from Blackwater Bay...
Winning!
However, the sudden appearance of Aegon not only disrupted my plan , and directly threatened my life... So, this is my only choice, my only chance.
Maybe the True Dragon Alliance 45,000 armies will not all rely on me, but if Half of it is almost enough."
Renly's legacy is actually only one third inherited by Second Stag, and the rest is a dead loss, all run away.
Therefore, Second Stag does not intend to take full possession of King Aegon's estate.
—a small peach is better than nothing.
"Your Majesty..." Davos looked at the Lord with a complicated expression.
"Sorry." Eventually, Onion Knight bowed his head, "I'm not a qualified Hand of the King, I..."
--I've always hated Red Woman, I want Qing Jun, because she will only lead you into the abyss, but now, I am not as useful to you as she is.
"No, Davos, it's time for you to show off your talents," Second Stag turned back, excited, with his right hand on the Prime Minister's shoulder, sincerely pleaded, "I need your strength, help me. ."
"I, what can I do?" Onion Knight looked up and saw Lord's expectant and trusting eyes, both moved and at the same time dazed.
"Davos, don't underestimate oneself, you also have a very unique charm about you.
You have convinced me many times when I was angry, and when the situation was extremely unfavorable. Convince Earl Manderly, and even Melisandre, by your courage and integrity.
Your eloquence, insight, wisdom, affiliation, and virtue are few in Seven Kingdoms. Seeing your strengths, I will be moved by your sincerity.
I need you to go to King's Landing, find the leaders of the True Dragon Alliance, convince Bronze Yohn, convince the Golden Company, convince Dorne Arianne."
Seeing the sincerity and trust on Second Stag's face, Onion Knight's eyes were wet.
"Your Majesty, I, I did my best, but..." He turned his head, quietly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said in a urn: "Take the fast ship and wait until I arrive. King's Landing, it is estimated that it will be a month later, too late!"
He didn't say fast progress, rapid progress.
Westeros doesn't have an official post at all. In peacetime, you might be able to buy a few useless horses from a small hotel on the road, but now the army is in chaos, and a person does not dare to go on the road.
Broken Men, bandits, black shops, unemployed farmers, wild beast...
"We have it!" Second Stag pointed to Black Dread in the courtyard.
"Wyvern?" Davos exclaimed, and wondered again: "I don't have a real dragon blood, how can I control Wyvern? Besides, the master of Balerion is not dead, can we take control of it?"
"Wyrmrider doesn't need a real dragon blood vein, that Aegon, I suspect that Varys replaced oneself's relatives. At least Tyrion, definitely not a real dragon blood vein."
"As for control, hey, you've got Melisandre to thank for cracking Daenerys' Holy Knight's Seal." Second Stag laughed smugly.
"Cracked?" Davos asked expectantly.
"Not yet, I need a sacrifice."
"A sacrifice?" Davos' face changed suddenly, unconsciously thinking of Little Flayer who was struggling and wailing in the flames that day.
"Your Majesty, you broke your promise and quietly burned Ramsay to death, which has caused dissatisfaction among the North people. If you sacrifice Theon again, I am afraid that even Duke Jon will have a different opinion.
Theon But his father's adopted son is his righteous brother!" Davos worriedly said.
"Different? Hmph, that thankless wretch, who has had a different heart. Without his acquiescence, would Aegon dare to attack me in Winterfell?"
Second Stag's neck twitched with blue veins up, teeth creaking.
"Your Majesty, Sansa is his younger sister, it is impossible for you to make a bannermen completely turn their backs on family interests," Davos advised.
"Could it be that the oath of allegiance to the king is bullshit?" Second Stag said angrily.
"Your Majesty, in the battle of Usurper, you were also a servant of the Mad King. Even the Mad King planned to kill Robert and named you Storm's End Duke.
But you without the slightest Hesitation stands on the side of the eldest brother, abandons the temptation of the monarch and the title, and chooses to cut wood.
By pushing the other, not only can you not hate Duke Jon, but you must understand him, appreciate him, praise him, Rely on him even more, he is far more loyal to the monarch than you were back then!
Change your position in Duke Jon, and then replace Sansa with Robert. It is estimated that he would lead the North soldiers to oppress them earlier, we have a hundred of them hidden. Madam Melisandre doesn't help either."
Second Stag stares at the oneself prime minister with wide-eyed, murderous aura.
Davos' face is calm and his eyes are hard to avoid.
"ka beng crunch-" Second Stag's jaw quivered and he began to grind his teeth hard.
After a while, Second Stag tilted his head first, saying with a bitter smile: "You dare to say such a thing. But you are right, I can't ask my courtier to do it, and I can't do it myself. ”
“If you don’t sacrifice Theon, you can use his elder sister Asha...”
Onion Knight’s expression changed again, anxiously said: “Your Majesty , Asha is Duke's daughter, and redeemed with a precious Valyrian Steel dagger, absolutely can't kill!"
"What do you say?"
Davos' face Suddenly became incredibly pale, and said weakly: "Can quantity be used instead of quality?"
......
Sansa was also very lively, just returned to the Lord In the hall of the fort, a group of nobles loyal to Aegon surrounded the queen, everyone talking at once admonishing.
"Queen Sansa, Westeros never had such a precedent," Earl Maege said.
"True Dragon Alliance is not easy to set up, Iron Throne is right in front of you, so you can't easily let the villains get it!" Ser Andar Royce almost cried.
His father, Bronze Yohn, led Vale's 20,000 army to thousands of miles and finally got close to King's Landing.
The fruit is about to ripen, I really don't want someone to pick the peaches.
"Your Highness the Queen, you should go directly to King's Landing, wait for us to take Iron Throne, wait for you to give birth to Prince, wait for Dragon Queen to end the war on Slaver's Bay, Stannis has no choice but to release Aegon Your Majesty."
Earl Galbart offers a seasoned advice.
Sansa shook his head firmly, and said, "It's someone else who captured Aegon, I might be able to bargain slowly, but Stannis..."
"That heathen is almost insane, and a lunatic can't figure it out."
"Although he's a bit difficult to get along with, he's not too..." Jon naively.
"Actually, I always thought he was a lunatic," muttered Tormund Giantsbane.
"Are you really going to give up Iron Throne and go into exile?" Maege frowned.
To be honest, the North people don't really like Aegon that much, but Aegon's queen is Stark, and they naturally prefer him.
In other words, Second Stag's charm value is too low, and everyone doesn't like him.
In today's Seven Kingdoms, Second Stag, Cersei, Aegon are fighting for hegemony, Aegon is not so good, but Second Stag and Cersei are two wonderful flowers, which can forcibly set off a dog's tail flower into a crimson fairy grass.
Sansa glanced at the nobles in the hall and said firmly: "Aegon is not only my King, but also my husband, my child's father.
For him, Stannis's I can agree to any excessive conditions."
You nobles, respectfully.
"Besides, Dany aunt is about to end the battle at Slaver's Bay, and I don't believe she won't get justice for us."
Jon and the others, their faces twisted.
