Chapter 222
Autumn is cool and the sky is clear.
Outside King's Landing, a light breeze blows the tail and the corners of the clothes, all around the flag hunting, and the dragon queen Daenerys rode his horse to the waiting army of the Unsullied.
Behind him, besides the Unsullied soldiers holding spears and leather shields, there are also Dothraki cavalry who are screaming and riding horses.
After days of siege and attack, several times riding a dragon and burning the city wall with fire, the defense force in King's Landing has been stretched out. Lannister soldiers and golden robe have suffered heavy casualties.
Jaime Lannister and Bolong can only encourage civilians to defend the city wall.
Ordinary civilians, without training, how can they be opponents to the world-renowned elite infantry Innocent?
Faced with the murderous Dothraki warrior, it is no different from a sheep!
Hundreds of thousands of people crowded into the city. The food was consumed two weeks ago. Apart from the enemies outside, hunger is King's Landing's biggest enemy.
"Listen to the people on the city wall!"
"In front of you is the birth of the storm, the descendants of Old Valyria, the queen of the Andal ancestors, Luo Queen of the Ina people and ancestors, the ruler of Westeros and the Guardian of the whole territory, the Kalixi of the Great Caohai, the unburned, the chainbreaker, the queen of Milin, the liberator of Astabo, the silver-haired queen, the Dragonstone Princess, the mother of dragons, and the queen of dragons Daenerys Targaryen!"
As the dragon queen spoke, the title was repeated by soldiers who knew Westeros lingua franca, and it quickly spread to everyone on the city wall of King's Landing .
"These titles with her unsullied Legion and Dothraki cavalry are really bluffing."
Hearing this series of titles, Bolong still looks like a stumbling block. But the ridicule is a bit more solemn.
Jaime brows tightly knit: "Are you afraid?"
"Who's not afraid?" Bolong rolled the eyes, pointing at those strong men who had been forced to fight, and said angeredly: "You Look at those shiver coldly civilians."
"They may rush over to capture or kill us at any time, and then open the door to the Dragon Queen to dedicate the city. Aren't you afraid?"
Kingslayer sighed: "So, did I make a mistake in letting them come to defend the city?"
"Nothing wrong." Bolong was even more depressed when it came to this, and it was him who proposed to hand over weapons to civilians.
Looking at this small number of enemy siege equipment, Jaime Lannister said: "At least we can hold the city wall, right?"
"It’s hard to say, even with House Lannister’s When the soldiers supervised the battle, when the Unsullied and Dothraki attacked the city again, they found that they would still surrender if they couldn't fight."
When he heard the mercenary, Jaime shook his head firmly: "We must defend King's Landing!"
At this time, the two people didn't care about the Dragon Queen's words of persuading surrender. Legion the Unsullied has slowly pushed the crash, wound the giant crossbow, and loaded the sling stone.
A group of Unsullied people raised their shields, escorted and carried a long ladder, and Dothraki, who pushed the siege ladder, charged towards the city wall.
"The archer prepares for me!"
"Stay steady, wait for them to get closer and release arrows!"
Jaime and Bolong saw this and hurried to guard The city's militia ordered.
However, the ordinary commoner who only took up the weapon did not say that he had not been trained, nor did he mention that he had never seen this kind of war scene.
They have been short of meat for a long time, and not many people are strong enough. In addition, King's Landing lacks food and can't eat enough, so they almost use their strength to open the bowstring.
Where is the strength to hold the bowstring?
Within a few breaths, the sharp arrows flew to the Unsullied soldiers holding the shields, or directly to the unmanned ground.
The feather arrows are wasted in vain and cannot cause any effective damage.
"It's a waste." Bolong couldn't help cursing when he saw it.
Jaime had no choice but to continue to give orders: "Draw the bow again immediately, this time the supervising team will show them to me, whoever releases the arrow in advance is welcome!"
Yes The supervising team of Lannister soldiers pointed their knives behind their backs, and the militiamen immediately followed orders better.
However.
Catapults and giant crossbows were developed to launch attacks. Stones and crossbow arrows continued to greet the city wall. The supervising team pointed a knife at the back, and the feared militia still had no effect.
They panicked and threw down their bows and arrows, and then they were killed by the supervising team members, and finally sparsely released their arrows again.
The giant dragon flying in the air swoops down, moving towards the most enemy position, spouting flames.
The militia can't stop the long ladder from being put up on the city wall.
As the brave Dothraki warrior climbed up the ladder, the siege ladder was also pushed to the city wall, and more Unsullied soldiers and Dothraki warrior aggressive rushed to the city.
"Draw the sword to meet the enemy!"
"Runaway kill without mercy!"
No matter what Jaime and Bolong order, no matter how the supervising team kills.
Not enough to eat and wear, because the militiamen who have been frightened by the Unsullied and Dothraki for days of siege and siege, dare not fight such an enemy at all.
The mercenary hurriedly said to Jaime Lannister: "Don't shout, we lost. If you can't keep the city wall with these civilians, run right away!"
"No!" Kingslayer No matter how he refused to retreat, "We must guard the city wall!"
"We have repelled the Unsullied and Dothraki many times, and we will repel them all this time!"
Looking at the untouchables who dropped their weapons in horror and turned and ran away, Jaime still wanted to drive them back to deal with the enemy, but Bolong caught him when he saw it.
Said, "Before there were soldiers from your House Lannister, no matter how bad they were, there were golden robes, and Daenerys did not send a dragon.
Now the dragon is here, we are not their opponents at all!
While there is still time, there is a boat, hurry up and run!"
Besides the city wall, Daenerys on horseback has dismounted and slowly climbed up to her dragon. On the back, there is the queen personally assisting in the battle, and the morale of the unsullied and Dothraki is extremely high!
The dragon will not let the dragon breathe fire where there are soldiers fighting with the enemy.
But on the city wall, where the Unsullied and Dothraki did not reach, the flames burst into the sky in an instant!
The collapse is completely irreparable.
Jaime is not reconciled, but for Cersei's safety, he can only ride his horse to the Red Keep.
Back to Red Keep, I was going to find the twin sister who became the lion queen, but Jaime didn't expect. She was bringing three people towards the gate.
In addition to Cobain and Robert Strong, who he made from the corpse of the Devil Mountain, there is also a man wearing Valyrian Steel armor, a demon helmet, and holding a sea monster battle axe.
Jaime immediately said: "Let’s take Myrcella and run."
The Lion Queen hearing this shook her head and calmly said: "It is not us who should run away."
Bologne thinks Cersei Lannister is already stupid.
But her twin brother already knew the source of Elder Sister Bai’s confidence and looked at the man holding the battle axe: "Is he Euron Greyjoy?"
See Kingslayer With a suspicious look, Cobain is hearing this proudly said with a slight smile: "He is more powerful than Robert Strong, Sir Jaime, you can definitely repel the Dragon Queen with him."
Cersei is also right. younger brother nodded: "The power of Euron is now very strong."
Bolong's face is full of suspicion. He obviously doesn't believe that Euron has any way to defeat the three dragons and Legion the Unsullied. And Dothraki cavalry.
"But we don't have an army." Jaime brows tightly knit, and think that the elder sister may be crazy.
"Euron, it's time for you to show your strength."
