A Western fantasy journey that began with Game of Thrones - Chapter 313 Nothing Happened
The abnormal response of Haijiang City to sending troops made the ironmen very vigilant, but the result of the matter surprised them——
Those enemies that hurriedly attacked did not bring any special spells or conspiracies. Instead, they sailed out to sea without preparation and rushed straight towards the Ironborn fleet to attack!
If there is an idiom in this world about overestimating one’s own capabilities, or that a pedestal may regret a tree, then the ironmen would probably have instinctively thought of it after encountering such a dramatic attack, and now, they can easily eliminate this unsystematic “water army” In the end, they just felt ridiculous.
Because the land is located at the main entrance to and from the sea in the Riverlands, there are still a lot of ships under the command of Seaside City, but most of them are used for fishing. The limited war ships are simply unable to defeat the Iron Islands. The Invincible Fleet——
It’s not that Seaside City doesn’t want to build a fleet that can resist the Ironborn attacks, but the lords here can’t compare with the Iron Islands in terms of maritime heritage. They don’t have the technology and the money. There won’t be any good results if they reluctantly build it. It’s better to give up completely. This method relies on buildings on land to passively resist Ironborn attacks.
Even the people of Kohor who occupied Seaside City also lacked marine power and had no ability to fight back.
However, they fought back.
“The Unsullied are never afraid of danger, nor are they afraid of death. Even if they are ordered to commit suicide, they will execute it immediately without hesitation. I didn’t believe this before, but I do now.”
On the deck, Rhaenys, who witnessed the enemies being wiped out in three blows, commented thoughtfully, “What a bunch of pathetic people.”
“Why is this? Showing weakness?” Wallis, who was hiding in the dark, was also frowning and thinking, feeling that this matter was a bit incomprehensible.
Are those people crazy?
Still not sure about the strength of the Iron Fleet?
“Did Renly cast some kind of spell to deceive people’s minds and turn every Qohor person in the castle into a fool?” He secretly guessed, and felt that the possibility was not low.
What happened next made his guess even more believable, because not long after the first wave of attacks, a second wave of attacks surged out of the castle at the end of the line of sight, and it was the same as last time. It was fierce, but it could not even get close. Can’t be wiped out quickly.
This appearance made many ironmen laugh, but it also made many cautious people wary. However, nothing happened after that, and Haijiang City just stopped.
It wasn’t until the next day that a large group of spearmen wearing leather armor emerged from the city, formed a formation under the castle, and sent people to declare a challenge.
The ironborn were confused.
What are these people doing?
They are sending themselves to death, and they are setting up a formation… Do you want to stimulate them to start attacking the city?
is it possible? How stupid do you have to be to attack at this time?
And if they attack the city, shouldn’t the enemy’s best response be to defend the city honestly?
Why did you escape out of the city?
Obviously, the Ironborn cannot understand the hardships of the Kohor people in Seaside City. Such behaviors may seem idiotic, but in fact they are really idiotic, but it is impossible not to do them.
How could they remain indifferent just because “the superiors” have spoken out to fight back?
However, the Ironborn were in the ocean, too far away to use black magic. And because the sea was flat without any shelter, their mages had to consider whether they would be killed if they wanted to get close by boat.
What’s more, black magic is not omnipotent, or it cannot affect a huge army at all. And they still don’t understand the specific situation of the matter, and they don’t have a precise target to counterattack.
So in desperation, the Kohor people could only use soldiers to die to show that they had tried their best. It was not that they didn’t know that this was useless, but in fact they were completely “forced to have no choice.”
This reason is ridiculous. No matter how hard you guess, the ironmen can’t guess it. However, their countermeasures are very simple. No matter what the enemy’s plot is, they just come to cover it up with water and earth, and just waste it on the sea. Maybe this is the right way. Is it because of what their son of the Drowned God did?
With this mentality, the ironmen who had been impetuous before calmed down and were no longer anxious. They just wanted to see what this situation would turn into in the end.
They didn’t have to wait long.
On the third day after the death incident, the enemies who had lined up their troops outside the city and even sent boats to clamor for provocation suddenly withdrew their troops!
Then, the red-background black goat flag hanging high on the city wall of Haijiang City was quietly removed, and the soldiers stationed on the wall disappeared in a hurry.
The whole castle suddenly became extremely silent.
It didn’t take long for the Ironborn to discover that the Kohor people stationed in Seaside City began to evacuate the castle quickly!
This situation was a bit unexpected, even abnormal. Fearing that there might be a scam, the ironmen did not take advantage of the situation to pursue them. Instead, they sent scouts ashore to follow and be vigilant. They also asked a small group of ironmen to enter the castle to carefully check whether there were any traps, and they waited too long. one day.
Finally, we came to the conclusion that the enemy has really completely evacuated here, without any conditions and without any hidden tricks!
“Renly’s deception is so powerful that the enemy obeys orders?” Varys, who had witnessed all this, was horrified, and most of the ironborn in the fleet were also dumbfounded.
It seems that nothing has been done yet, and the difficulty in front of us has been solved in this way, silently, which is really puzzling.
In the end what happened?
No one could answer this question, but everyone guessed that all the abnormal actions of the enemy were all because of the faceless Son of the Drowned God.
But he only sent two notes in, right?
Not many Ironborn could read, and even fewer could read Valyrian, so they didn’t even know what was written on the two notes. Because of the unknown, there were many speculations about this thing.
Something with powerful magic or curse, or there were many threatening words written on the notes, and the enemy had to retreat under the power of the great Drowned God…
Obviously this is the truth, but no one can be sure what the situation is. However, no one asked about it. The gods are mysterious, and they gradually became immune to the magic of the Son of the Drowned God.
…
After successfully occupying the Sea Border City, the previously customized plan can be implemented immediately, so the Ironborn vanguard went ashore to open the way and be vigilant against the enemies in the river. At the same time, a large number of Ironborn cut wood to make tools, carried longboats, and rushed towards the turbulent river not far from the Sea Border City.
In the past, the River Island Kingdom relied on the Sancha River to dominate the riverlands, but was later conquered by the dragon. Now, three hundred years have passed, and they finally have the opportunity to occupy the Sancha River again. Everyone is naturally excited, thinking that the good days of the Iron Islands are finally coming.
The war brought disaster to many people, but it also opened up some gaps in some originally solid situations, and countless opportunities have arisen. Now that the Ironmen are forced to send troops, they can be said to have seized this opportunity.
As for whether they will withdraw from Westeros under pressure from all sides after the war?
Now that they are here, how can it be so easy to withdraw?
