Game of Thrones: I Became a Crown Prince For a Day Chapter 442

Chapter 442 Target, Sunspear

Time flies, and several days pass by.

Tianji City.

At the foot of the hillside of Dorne, 10,000 Reach allied troops were arrayed in formation, watching eagerly around the siege equipment.

After many days, we finally have to attack this dangerous city.

Glutton roared in the sky, his huge body covered the scorching sun, shrouded the army and rushed to the sky above Tianji City.

Rhaegar, with a frosty face, took advantage of the giant dragon to glide over the heads of the army and shouted loudly: "The city is about to be destroyed, the whole army attacks!"

“Go for it!”

“Prepare the catapult, cover the army!”

The shield soldiers swarmed up to protect the spearmen and archers in the rear.

“Hiss…”

Menghuo screamed sharply, spreading its broad wings like the blue sky, and besieged Tianji City along another road.

Boom—

Two giant dragons hovered over the city, spitting dragon flames wantonly.

For a time, it dealt a huge blow to the garrison at the top of the city and instantly reduced their morale.

On the top of the city, Count Fowler personally took command and shouted angrily: "Set up the scorpion crossbow and shoot down the dragon!"

Click click click…

Several heavy scorpion crossbows turned and aimed at the dragon in the sky.

Whoosh!

The steel spear was fired, but it missed the target far away.

“Glutton, kill him!”

Rhaegar sneered and swooped down on the dragon.

Glutton's green eyes were stern, and a mouthful of dragon flames sprayed out, swallowing up dozens of soldiers centered on the scorpion crossbow.

“Seven Hells!”

Facing the giant dragon, Count Fowler felt dizzy and felt discouraged.

He thought of how his ancestors had dealt with Targaryen invaders.

Abandon the city and go into the desert.

Perhaps he shouldn't have defended the city. This was a huge mistake.

Unfortunately, it's too late.

Rumble —

The closed city gate quietly opened to welcome the Allied forces from the Reach who climbed up the hillside.

Morse's face was pale, an arm was missing from his shoulder, and his armor was wet with blood.

Dicken was trembling all over, holding a scimitar in his hand, and seven or eight soldiers gathered around him.

“Attack!”

The city gate opened wide, and Rhaegar roared loudly, driving the gluttons across the city, suppressing the defenders and retreating from the city.

“Hiss…”

Menghuo neighed and quickly descended into the city gate, a puff of dragon flame sweeping across the supporting soldiers.

“Stop them.”

Helena leaned down on the dragon's back and spoke the language of dragon taming.

Meng Huo is very brave, his light blue wings are like two giant knives, and he pushes hard with his long and thick dragon tail.

The well-proportioned figure transforms into a ruthless war machine.

Anyone who offends will be directly sprayed with increasingly intense light blue dragon flames.

One person and one dragon have the same mind, trying to gain time for the Reach army to rush into the city gate.

“Long live the princess!”

“For the Iron Throne…”

Seeing this scene, all the soldiers' eyes lit up and they rushed into the city.

Fight for the Targaryens and you'll win!

At the top of the city.

Seeing the city gate being breached, Count Fowler was filled with shock and anger, and the fear of death surged into his heart.

He still has a lot of things to do. The three thousand soldiers and two thousand mercenaries in the city have not yet been used.

“Who opened the city gate?”

Count Fowler murmured, then suddenly woke up and cursed hysterically:

“Damn Manwudi, how dare you betray openly!”

The situation is over, but sadness comes from my heart, and my eyes are full of resentment: "I will curse those who betrayed..."

Halfway through the words, the green dragon flames sprinkled down and landed on the top of the head without any bias.

There was a sizzling sound, and the brain was filled with smoke.

Rhaegar glanced at it and said scornfully: "There's so much nonsense."

The lord died tragically, and morale plummeted.

Two giant dragons suppressed the attack with firepower, and an army of 10,000 invaded the city.

At this point, Tianji City officially fell.

There was chaos and chaos, and the war ended before the sun set.

Tianji City changed its owner, and a new policy was implemented in a drastic way.

Members of the Fowler family were all placed under house arrest and imprisoned in the castle attic.

After the fighting, most of the three thousand soldiers and two thousand mercenaries who guarded the city were left, and they all knelt down and surrendered.

Dornish soldiers numbering about 1,600 were divided into small groups and imprisoned separately.

　　The mercenaries were all beheaded, with spears inserted into their heads, and stood on top of the city.

　　While it was still dark, Rhaegar sat on the back of a dragon, one man and one dragon standing in front of the castle.

Helena followed suit and rode Dreamfire to block the gate of the castle.

Two giant dragons faced each other across the sky, with more than a thousand Dornish civilians gathered in the middle.

They are the subjects of the Fowler family, and they retreated to the city when the war began.

Rhaegar looked around and made a formal declaration: "Martell went to war privately and abandoned precious peace."

"But I know that you are just a group of poor people and innocent people."

"The Targaryens will not harm you. I hope you live a good life and do not get involved in the meat grinder of war."

After saying that, he gave Donald, who was lowering his head, a look.

Donald understood and dragged up several Dornish officers, promising not to kill the prisoners and imprisoning them until the end of the war.

It is difficult to tell whether it is true or not, and it can appease the common people to a great extent.

Many of these soldiers are the children of civilians, so they naturally do not want the Iron Throne to kill prisoners.

Getting assurance will immediately put an end to dishonest thoughts.

What Rhaegar wanted was this effect.

If you don't ask for the sincere loyalty of civilians, at least don't cause trouble in the short term.

There will be plenty of time for preparation in the future. …

Inside the castle, cliff hall.

The war was won and a meeting was held.

There is a Dorne terrain sand table on the table, and Rhaegar points to the Hellgate Castle in the hinterland of Dorne.

“Hellgate Castle is the residence of the Uller family. It is located along the Sulfur River, surrounded by barren desert and has no natural dangers to rely on.”

“To conquer Hellgate Keep, all you have to do is break down the strong walls.”

Helena listened carefully and spoke attentively: "The walls of Prison Gate Castle are very strong, and there are Sandstone City and Vance City on the left and right. Once we get into a protracted war, our army will be unable to move even an inch."

At first glance, Hellgate Castle seems to have no natural dangers, but in fact, the deserts in all directions are natural dangers.

Any army that wants to break the city must have an arduous task by marching in the vast desert.

Not to mention the extremely long supply line from the Reach to Hellgate Keep.

As long as an army is hidden in the desert in advance, it can intercept the enemy's supplies halfway and cause a devastating blow.

Rhaegar nodded, glanced at the people present one by one, and changed the topic: "I received news from Lord Corliss yesterday. He has broken through the town of Planks and is waiting for the army to join together."

　　咚! Boom!

He tapped the sand table with his fingers and said seriously: "The distance between Tianji City and Prison Gate Fort is moderate. I decided to mobilize all the cavalry, bring ten days of dry food, and immediately go south to attack the city!"

“Ten days!?”

Mont was stunned and said in surprise: "Even the fastest cavalry will take seven days to travel between the two castles. This is still a prerequisite for not getting lost or encountering a sandstorm."

“After all the calculations, we only have less than three days to siege the city.”

Which castle can be conquered in three days?

“Lord Mond, three days is enough.”

Rhaegar was unhappy at being interrupted and said coldly: "Don't forget how the Dornish people resisted the Targaryen attack during the First Dornish War."

Abandon the city and go into the desert.

　guerrillas everywhere, assassinating nobles.

There are many ways to play with the word disgusting.

Wangzhong City and Tianji City did not abandon the city, which can only mean that Ke Olun Martell gave them a death order and asked them to resist tenaciously.

To obtain additional funding beyond the Narrow Sea.

The Uller family of Prison Gate Castle has always been known as lunatics, and their strength is not much weaker than that of the Fowler family of Tianji City.

Facing the Targaryen dragon, there will definitely be no head-on resistance.

Most likely to imitate their ancestors, leaving only the old, weak, sick and disabled to surrender in the city, while the soldiers hide in the desert for sneak attacks.

Rhaegar wanted to capture the castle and send a dragon to control the area from Prince's Pass to Hellgate Keep.

Mond immediately recalled the assassinated Duke of Tyrell, frowned and said: "Since it is an empty city, it is useless for us to capture it."

It is difficult to defend an empty city.

The people in the city are all spies, and there are mouse holes in every corner.

In case of carelessness, supplies were cut off and the army had to starve to death in the city.

Rhaegar nodded lightly and said thoughtfully: "Hellgate Castle is the main city in the west of Dorne. Control this place to contain Dorne's troops to the maximum extent."

Sea Serpents occupy the Greenblood River, cutting off the east-west war in Dorne.

He sent an army to draw firepower and hold back the resistance forces to the west.

"what do you mean…"

Mond was stunned, thoughtful.

Rhaegar placed his fingers on the Bone Road, then rowed to Sunspear City, and said directly: "Open the Prince's Pass and the Bone Road, occupy Tianji City and Yronwood City as bases, and the army will approach Sunspear City."

The Dornish can abandon the castle, and the Targaryens can abandon the search for the Dornish.

Control the Crimson Mountains, attack Sunspear City, and attack Martell's lair!

Even Keolun has fled in the same way, and can only wander around in the yellow sand like a street rat.

Since he likes it, let him eat sand with those **** vassals.

Look at the Iron Throne.

Prince's Pass and Bone Road are sealed, and the supply lines on both sides of the Reach are acceptable.

By regularly clearing out the Dornishmen lurking in the Crimson Mountains, the safety of both roads can be ensured.

Spend some effort to completely bring the Crimson Mountains under the jurisdiction of the Iron Throne within a few years.

Sunspear is equally important as Planktown.

Both were coastal towns that transported food by sea, abandoning dangerous land supply lines.

Wait until the three city-states of Lys, Myr, and Tyrosh are on track, and unite the Stepstone Islands to control the lower half of the Narrow Sea.

At that time, there will be no way out of Dorne from the Crimson Mountains inland, and no way out from the Summer Sea by sea.

In addition, the Iron Throne's army and dragons burned and harassed, destroying wells, water and farmland.

Within two years, the Dornish people would be plunged into a nationwide famine that would starve them to death.

Effortlessly destroy the Dornish regime.

The next day.

Bone Road, Weir City.

“Hiss!”

Vormisor soared over the city, dragon flames bombarding the city's towers.

However, there was deathly silence in the castle, without any sound.

The empty castle, not a single soul in sight.

Viserys frowned, looking down at the empty city.

Obviously,

The Dornishmen were up to their old tricks of abandoning their castles and not confronting the dragons.

“The Weir family, disgusting surname.”

Viserys muttered, feeling disgusted.

Tunnels connecting caves were dug underground in the city of Weir to strengthen its defenses.

　　During the First Dornish War, the Weir family used this trick to avoid the Conqueror and Balerion.

In 12 AC, Wel of Wel City showed up uninvited at the wedding of Sir Jon Cavalon, the heir of Fawnton, and Aly Oakheart, the daughter of the Earl of Oakheart.

Killed the Earl of Oakheart and most of the guests, and forced the bride Yali to watch her husband be castrated.

Ali and her maids were raped in turn and sold to slave traders in Myr.

“Shameless Weir!”

Viserys took a sip, rubbed the bronze scales under the saddle, and gave the order: "Vormithor, let's go."

Weir City has become an empty city, and the same is probably true of Yronwood City at the exit of the Bone Road.

He received a letter from the sea serpent Corliss and knew that attacking Sunspear was the top priority.

Since Weir City and Yronwood City do not resist, the Darkport army can pass through the Bone Road.

He had to go back and write a letter to his eldest son and formulate a general policy.

“Hiss!”

Wormisor flapped his wings and moved away from the complex terrain of Weir City.
