Dominate the Game of Thrones with Mount and Blade

Kingdom, Kings Road.

Led by flags such as the red three-headed dragon on a black background, the golden sword and horse flag, the headless wolf on a white background, the golden rose on a green background, and the twin towers on a white background, dozens of riders with various flags marched at the front of the team, followed by 150 elite River Bay cavalrymen, guarding the royal family and nobles in the center of the team.

Hundreds of carriages and ox carts followed behind, and the eighty selected servants sat on the open ox carts with their luggage.

One hundred Stark infantrymen wearing chain mail and pointed helmets marched together with the servants' convoy. They were part of the guards left by the northerners for Sansa, and now they followed the queen to the capital.

The weather was gloomy and it looked like it would rain soon. The infantrymen and servants prayed secretly that it would not rain until the team camped.

The nobles lying in the closed carriages did not have such worries.

In the center of the team, on the most luxurious four-horse carriage, the king who had just fought with Sansa twice was sorting clothes with the queen and chatting at the same time.

"I remember there is a nest of dragon eggs in your Winterfell. Do you know about it?"

The king asked after rubbing the child's canteen.

Queen Sansa, whose beautiful face was as red as her hair, was surprised and said, "Are you kidding? How could there be dragon eggs in Winterfell?"

She thought her husband was going to blackmail her and the Stark family, so she pinched Arthur's waist viciously.

After gently slapping Sansa's little hand away, the king said seriously, "I'm not kidding. There are rumors that a dragon named Vermax has been to Winterfell and laid a nest of eggs near your hot springs. The Starks will definitely not hatch a dragon, so this nest of dragon eggs may still be hidden in a secret room in Winterfell."

Vermax was active in the Dance of the Dragons nearly two hundred years ago. It is rumored that he is a male dragon, and the dragon rider is named Jacaerys Velaryon. In order to seek support from the North, this man once flew to Winterfell on a dragon, and his dragon took the opportunity to lay a nest of eggs.

Speaking of this, we have to mention the gender of dragons.

Maester Adar, who compiled the book "The World of Ice and Fire", believes that fire dragons are divided into male and female, but do not follow the principle of "sexual dimorphism".

That is, in theory, there is no difference in size between male and female dragons. The female dragon "Vhagar" who survived the period of the Dance of the Dragons grew to the size of the male dragon "Balerion", making this statement more reliable.

However, an influential monk Bath believes that dragons have no gender, and Maester Aemon of the Targaryen family believes that the gender of dragons is as erratic as dragon flames.

The third view is that dragons are divided into male and female, but the gender is not fixed, and only show a certain gender at a certain time.

Dr. Guldan agrees with this view. Because he has studied the Targaryen family and dragons in depth, this view is also more reliable.

"Why do I feel like you want to blackmail my family?" Whether there is a nest of dragon eggs or not, Sansa doesn't want her husband to get them.

"You still have six dragon eggs in your hand, which is more than enough for hatching dragons or selling them for money."

She knew her husband's plan to expand the royal standing army, and she supported it.

"Since Daenerys and I have successfully hatched dragons, the dragon eggs have strategic significance. Such a big killer, even if we don't plan to hatch all of them, we have to have them in our hands."

Arthur pondered for a moment and discussed with his wife: "After Winterfell is recovered, I will send a reliable person to go there. If we find dragon eggs, we will take them back."

Sansa stared at her husband with resentment, "My family is already poor enough, and you still want to take away good things..."

"What do you mean your family and my family?" Arthur stretched out his hand to stop his wife from talking, "You are all mine, what's wrong with me taking some of your things?"

The king was joking, but found that his wife's face was not very good.

So Arthur hastily changed his words, "My things are yours too, we are a family. As for the nest of dragon eggs, they are considered the public property of the Stark family. If I take them, I must pay Winterfell at the market price."

Sansa was a little happier.

After tidying up the clothes, the king gently patted his wife on the shoulder and said that he was going to discuss important matters with the vassal.

Queen Stark guessed who her husband was going to see, so she stretched out her right hand again and twisted Arthur's waist hard.

After this punishment, Arthur, who fled the battlefield in embarrassment, got off the car directly and ran towards an inconspicuous carriage behind.

There, Princess Arianne of Dorne was waiting for him.

Since he hadn't fought with the petite and lovely Princess of Dorne for a month, after Arthur returned to Harrenhal, the two fought whenever they had free time.

While Sansa was inspecting the town of Harrenhal, in the lord's room, in Arianne's own room, in the empty basement, and even on the throne of the Hundred Hearths in the middle of the night.

Even so, Arianne still felt it was not enough.

To the king's surprise, the driver was Tyene, the beautiful sand snake.

But thinking of her close relationship with the Dornish princess, Arthur got on the carriage shamelessly.

Tyene pretended to glare at the dragon bearer fiercely, but secretly glanced at his slender fingers and almost perfect figure.

For the next few hours, Tyene had to listen to her cousin's beautiful singing and worry about whether the bumpy carriage would fall apart during the journey.

"Gods! Let us hold on until King's Landing."

She prayed for this.

...

The Golden Company camp outside Storm's End in the Stormlands.

In a very large military tent, three officers, including Quinn, Tristan Rivers, and Alto, each with ten strong sergeants, were sitting on the ground in a circle. A large box that had been tied several times with iron chains was being Sixty-six eyes stared intently.

"I said." Quinn, who was tall and strong and wearing a simple set of mail armor, coughed twice, attracting the attention of his two companions.

"Are we too stupid to do this? The dragon egg is in the box, and what does it mean that we stare at the box? I propose to open the box and let us stare at the dragon egg."

Another officer, Alto, also supported this view, "That is, can the dragon egg be stolen under the eyes of more than thirty of us?"

Tristan Hewen glanced helplessly at the two companions who were famous for their bravery and fighting, and reminded:

"Is it possible that we need to rest? We left it outside for people to stare at, but the more the guard looked at it, the more he thought it was valuable and planned to steal it. What should I do?"

Quinn and Alto looked at each other and agreed with Tristan Rivers' point of view.

"The Earl of the Riverlands is right."

"That's right, the nobles of Westeros have good brains."

Quinn is a native of the Stepstone Islands, and the dark-skinned Alto is from the Summer Islands. The two often joke about Tristan Rivers' illegitimate status.

"I was beyond foolish before Prince Velaryon of the Summer Isles."

Because Alto was dark-skinned and had white hair, Tristan Rivers mocked him as Prince Velaryon, but of the Summer Isles.

The three of them went back and forth, talking nonsense to each other for a long time, and then they came to the topic of common concern.

Alto asked: "Two deputy captains, how much gold do you think this dragon egg is worth?"

Quinn half-joked and half-guessed: "At least 20,000 golden dragons?"

"snort!"

After blowing a breath from his nose, Tristan River felt that he had finally seized the opportunity to ridicule his companion.

"Hei Baqu comes from the same place as you. You should know the price of hiring an archer mercenary, right? Twenty thousand golden dragons only have two hundred archers. How can they be worth the same price as a noble dragon egg?"

Hei Baqu is also a white-haired man from the Summer Islands. He is the archer commander of the Golden Company and has a good relationship with Alto.

Alto thought for a while and said: "That's right. The Myr people offer archers a price of one hundred gold dragons each. A mere two hundred mercenaries are indeed not worthy of dragon eggs."

Quinn asked again: "The one hundred thousand golden dragons?"

Alto shook his head, "More than that, I think it's at least two hundred thousand."

The two people had their own opinions and started arguing with each other.

Tristan Hewen was secretly amused for a long time before he stopped talking nonsense and began to analyze it carefully.

"Have you heard about Daenerys, the Mother of Dragons? She had already tested the prices of dragon eggs and young dragons when she was in Astapor."

After making the conversation, he took out the cowhide bag from his waist and drank tons of water.

Quinn and Alto urged him to tell him the price of the dragon eggs.

"How much does a group of Unsullied ones cost? In peacetime, I would sell them for seven or eight thousand gold dragons!"

The Unsullied are not only sold individually, but are usually sold in groups of one hundred, and sometimes sold in units of one thousand, with commanding officers attached to maintain discipline.

Quinn raised his right index finger and shook it, "You're wrong. The Unsullied have a great reputation. How can it be so cheap? The unit price is only seventy or eighty gold dragons. It's cheaper than our sergeants. Is this possible?"

The hiring price of a single Golden Regiment soldier is generally between fifty and one hundred gold dragons, depending on the equipment, strength, and past performance.

The subordinates of these three officers are naturally the bravest and bravest in the entire Golden Regiment, and their unit prices are also the highest.

"Then it will be calculated as a group of ten thousand gold dragons." Tristan Rivers motioned his companions to come closer. "It is said that Daenerys Stormborn exchanged a young dragon for eight thousand Unsullied in Astapor, that is, Eight hundred thousand gold dragons. In addition, Slaver's Bay was relatively peaceful at that time, so the price was low. A young dragon is worth at least one million gold dragons!"

Tristan clicked his tongue for a while before expressing his conclusion about the price of dragon eggs:

"After the Dragon Holder and the Stormborn successfully hatched dragons, the price of dragon eggs is probably as high as the price of young dragons. I guess if this dragon egg appears in the market of Volantis, it will be thrown away and snatched away. , with the influence of wealthy businessmen lowering the price, at least 600,000 gold dragons can be sold, and it is easy to sell 80 or more million. "

"That's it, I haven't counted the Volantis nobles' strong love for dragons." Tristan became more and more enthusiastic as he talked, wishing he could steal the dragon eggs and sell them for money.

Because they consider themselves the heirs of the Dragon King's family, the entire upper echelons of Volantis are fanatically pursuing dragon-related things.

Dragon eggs are really priceless over there.

Quinn nodded, admitting that his companion's analysis made sense:

"You're right, but you have to look at the quality of things when selling them. This dragon egg is gold and silver, which shows that the hatched dragon is also gold and silver. The gold on your armband is so beautiful, and a silver one inside How beautiful is the gold-encrusted dragon? This alone can raise the price a lot."

Tristan Rivers has a solid gold armband that he currently wears on his right arm.

The three officers discussed for a long time and came to the conclusion that the price of dragon eggs was more than one million gold dragon coins.

At the same time, there was another inconspicuous tent in the military camp.

The faceless man, whose figure was covered by black, said coldly: "If the dragon cannot be hatched this time, we will be responsible for the dragon eggs and subsequent fire dragon matters."

"Don't worry." Although the temperature was very low, Captain Harry was sweating all over. He didn't know whether he was scared or hot.

He didn't know what kind of agreement Fatty Illyrio had reached with the House of Black and White, but he knew that this group of people was not easy to mess with.

And according to the fact that the Faceless Man never killed people he knew, and this Faceless Man never revealed his body shape and appearance, Harry felt that he should not be treated much preferentially.

"This time, we must catch the blood of two kings and successfully hatch dragons."

The Faceless Man waved his hand gently, "There shouldn't be any problems at Storm's End. What are you doing in King's Landing? Do you need my help?"

Captain Harry bit the bullet and moved closer to the black-robed man, whispering, "Sir Leswell Peake has secretly gone to King's Landing. His relatives, the Peake family of Star Shuttle City, have 1,500 soldiers in King's Landing. We are trying to win over this army."

"If nothing unexpected happens, we will give him a surprise at the Dragon Holder's second wedding."

The Faceless Man's black hood shook slightly, and he seemed to agree with this approach.

…

East of the Stormlands, in the waters near Shipbreaker Bay and the Isle of Tarth.

A large ship is connecting with a small ship.

A few days ago, Onion Knight Davos Seaworth returned to his old ways and secretly took Edric Storm and Shireen Baratheon away in a boat in the middle of the night.

Of course, there are also several loyal knights, such as Andrew Easmond, Gerard Goyle, and several sons of the Onion Knight, Dale Seaworth, Mathos Seaworth, Stannis Seaworth, etc.

Yes, Davos named his favorite son after his king (who was only a lord at the time).

After the Golden Group occupied the territory of Cape Wrath, the wife of the Onion Knight took her underage sons to take refuge at Storm's End.

After realizing that Storm's End would have a difficult defense, Davos also took his favorite sixth son away.

"Sir Andrew, Princess Shireen and Edric will be in your care."

The Onion Knight said sincerely.

Previously, he had appointed Sir Andrew as the guardian of Princess Shireen and Edric Storm.

"Why, you won't go with us?" Andrew asked puzzled.

He thought Davos brought his sixth son out just to escape together.

"No." The Onion Knight's eyes were firm, "Someone killed my king, I must avenge him!"

PS: Tyrion's life experience is very clear in Volume 1, that he is the son of Joanna and Tywin. The combination of the two Lannisters made the little devil's bloodline purer and regressed. His ancestor, "Clever Lann", was a dwarf who was eloquent and wise.
