Chapter 80: support
On the other side, as soon as Samwell returned to the pier, he also started to shake people,
"You immediately wrote to Madam Olenna, telling her that I have defeated the Dane family army and occupied Starfall City, but was..."
"Ahem." Todd couldn\'t hold back when he heard this.
Samwell glared at the other party, and said confidently:
"What are you doing? The pier is not considered Starfall City? And don\'t tell me you don\'t know what we are about to face this time. Although it is extremely dangerous, it is also a good opportunity to become famous all over the world! Todd Buddha Flower , if you want to get rid of the surname of the illegitimate child, just do as I tell you!"
Sure enough, there was a flash of struggle in Todd\'s eyes. After a while, the illegitimate child of Qingting Island sighed, nodded and said:
"I will tell Mrs. Olenna as you said."
"Very good!" Samwell patted the other person on the shoulder heavily, "Don\'t forget to write down Natalie Dane\'s life experience as well. Believe me, Mrs. Olenna will definitely not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
"good!"
Watching Todd\'s leaving back, Samwell sighed.
He knew that a big war was inevitable.
With the personality of that Princess Arianne Martell, she will never stop until they are driven into the sea.
Even if he withdrew to Yingzui Island, the ambitious Dorne princess would lead his troops to chase after him.
On the river bend, Mrs. Olenna should not miss this excellent opportunity to control the western part of Dorne, and there is a high probability that she will send troops to support it.
So, this is no longer just a grievance between Yingzui Island and Starfall City, but an upcoming war between Hewan and Dorne.
The situation has inevitably slipped out of control.
Samwell suddenly realized that this was probably what "Littlefinger" Petyr Baelish really wanted to see.
Chaos is the ladder.
From then on, after the man personally visited Yingzui Island for a silver mine, things began to escape from Samwell\'s control.
Pretended to be greedy for the benefits of silver mining, but in fact, concealed evil intentions to expose Yingzui Island to the sight of the Dornish people, and quietly assassinated the last blood of the main branch of the Dane family, completely provoking the conflict between Starfall City and Yingzui Island.
There is also the arrival of Arianne, Samwell believes that Petyr may have planned it secretly, otherwise there would be no chance of such a coincidence.
Although he had long been on guard against this notorious conspirator in Game of Thrones, he never expected to fall into the trap he wove.
Recalling that day at the Tower of Sky, he secretly laughed at Duke Renly as a marionette in the hands of Lady Olenna, but now, he himself cannot escape a similar fate.
Even sadder, Samwell found himself with no choice.
Unless he betrayed his position and interests, he could only start the war in the way Petyr designed.
Is this the strength of the top players in this Game of Thrones?
The corners of Samwell\'s mouth turned up slightly.
After realizing this, he wasn\'t too upset.
Petyr Baelish is not a **** after all, so it is impossible to count everything.
The conspirator tried his best to plan this drama, but he couldn\'t control the direction of the plot after all.
He can decide how to start the scene, but he cannot decide how to end the scene, let alone know that a puppet controlled by him has found the figure hiding behind the scene along the silk thread.
"Petyr Baelish!" Samwell gritted his teeth and said, "Just wait, one day, I will repay your care!"
—————
Horned Hill is located at the northern foot of the Crimson Mountains, and is the most important barrier in the south of Highgarden.
Whether it is the savages in the Crimson Mountains or the more elite and powerful Dornishmen, if they want to invade the most fertile core area of the river bend, they cannot bypass the war fortress of Horn Hill.
Today, this terrifying war machine located on the border of the river bend finally started to operate again.
Flags of various colors are flying in the air, directing the soldiers to line up to enter the city. The knights in bright armor are ready to go, as if they can\'t wait to fight for honor.
"Father! What are you calling the army for? Is there going to be a war?" Dickon Tarly ran to the top of the wall excitedly.
At only fourteen years old, he already has the height of an adult, with a strong physique and a handsome appearance. It is no wonder that Earl Randle was determined to support him as the heir of Horn Hill.
"Yes." Randyll Tarly said words like gold.
"Who are you fighting with?" Hearing that there was going to be a war, Dickon not only showed no fear on his face, but was more excited.
The Tully family has always had martial blood, er...except for a certain disinherited eldest son.
"Dorne."
"Fight Dorne! It\'s great! I\'ve long since disliked those guys covered in sand!" Dickon blushed, "Is it the war order issued by the Duke? Apart from us, there are still people in the River Bend Which families participated in the war?"
"The duke didn\'t give the order." Earl Landau saw a vassal knight under the castle take off his helmet and salute to himself, so he also waved, "We are the only ones in the river bay to participate in the battle."
"Huh?" Dickon was dumbfounded.
Earl Randall took out a letter from his arms and handed it to his son: "This is a letter from the Duke of Mace three days ago, read it yourself."
Dickon scanned it quickly, and then exclaimed: "It\'s my brother! The Dornishmen are going to attack his territory! It\'s disgusting! Father, please let me go too!"
"No." Earl Landau refused without hesitation.
Dickon\'s face suddenly collapsed. Although he knew that his father\'s decision would not be changed, he still asked unwillingly:
"Why can\'t I go?"
"Because you have more important tasks." Earl Randall said, took out another unopened letter, handed it to Dickon, and said, "Take this letter to Brightwater City, and give it to Ai Lord Lister."
Dickon was a little displeased: "To deliver a letter to my grandfather, do I need to go there myself? Can\'t I use a raven? Or let my mother go. She told me a few days ago that she missed the lake in her hometown, which just happened to let her Go back and have a look."
Earl Randall squinted his eyes and looked at his son, and said coldly:
"Can the raven represent the Tully family? Or can your mother represent the Tully family?"
It was only then that Deacon realized that this letter might be of great importance, and when he thought about the military operation in Horn Hill, he suddenly realized:
"Father, you don\'t want Liangshui City to send troops to support brother, do you?"
"That\'s right." Earl Randall\'s face softened a little, "I wrote the reasons and conditions for sending troops in the letter, and you hand it to your grandfather, and tell him that the Tully family will not forget the Florent family. help."
Dickon hid the letter next to his body, and asked again:
"Father, the Duke\'s letter only said that people from Starfall City are going to attack my brother\'s territory. Is it necessary to mobilize so many people?"
Earl Randall sighed quietly, and said: "Once the footsteps of war sound, it is up to certain people when to stop."
Dickon scratched his head, half understanding: "You mean the Dornish people will mobilize an army to attack Yingzui Island? Then why is the Duke of Metz ignoring it and only us and Brightwater City going to fight?"
"Have you not seen it yet? Your brother has become an abandoned son." Earl Landau had a mocking smile on his lips, but he didn\'t know who it was aimed at.
"Huh?" Dickon was taken aback.
He wanted to say, father, you were the first to abandon your brother...
Of course, he would definitely not dare to say this in person.
Sometimes, Dickon felt that he couldn\'t understand the world of adults, it was too complicated and confusing.
He suppressed his messy thoughts and asked again:
"Father, if my grandfather agrees to send troops, can I go with the army?"
Earl Randall shook his head again: "No. After delivering the letter, you have to go to Highgarden. The Duke of Mace\'s fiftieth name day banquet is coming soon, and you will attend on behalf of the Tully family."
"Oh." Dickon looked reluctant, but he had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, go to your mother, if she also wants to go to Bright Water City, you can take her with you."
"Okay, Father."
