Quanyou: I loaded the Demon Hunter system

Chapter 210 The Battle of Riverrun City

Clay didn't know anything about what happened in King's Landing City and Dragonstone Island in the north, and even if he knew, he didn't care too much.

Autumn is leaving a little bit, the temperature is getting colder and colder, and there is not much time left for the whole of Westeros.

He started from the west gate of the Twins, headed south, along the Green Fork.

Although the Hejian land was in the place of the Fourth World War, due to the victory of the previous war, no one dared to attack the civilians here.

But this time, the defeat was originally on the east side, which was equivalent to the annihilation of Robb Stark's army who guarded the land in the east of the Riverlands. This caused the area east of Riverrun to be under the enemy's soldiers.

Clay had no intention of attempting reconnaissance alone, and he had to get to Riverrun as soon as possible.

Riverrun City received the news that Clay was coming in advance, so they sent people across the Red Fork River to take Clay to Riverrun City in advance.

From Riverrun's point of view, if Clay Manderly, the last hope of the Northern Territory, had an accident on the road, then the Riverlands, a staunch ally of the Northern Territory, would be in great trouble.

In fact, this is completely overwhelmed, because Clay brought a full 100 elite cavalry, which cannot be used to directly attack the Valley people, but self-protection should be no problem.

A group of people hurried on and rushed to Riverrun City as soon as possible.

Once outside the city, Clay saw a series of military tents. Riverrun could not hold 2 people, so they had to be arranged outside the city.

The flags of each family were flying, and flags of Raventree City, Riverrun City, Sea Frontier City and so on filled every tent in the barracks.

It looks very imposing, and it looks like a large army, but how effective it is, you can only know when you go to the battlefield.

All the way into Riverrun, many people subconsciously stopped when they saw the flag of the Mandalay family. Of course they recognized this flag. Not long ago, the owner of this flag defeated their enemies at the foot of Riverrun. , rescued them.

Arriving at the main castle of the Tully family in Riverrun, Clay was led into the hall by the guards of the Tully family.

Not long ago, Horst Tully was unable to resist the erosion of time after tossing and turning sick for a long time, and went to meet the Seven Gods he believed in. As a result, Edmure Tully officially became He Jian master of the land.

But just after he officially took over the power, he suddenly faced the collapse of his ally and king's army, and was surrounded by his opponents in a castle that might fall at any time.

This situation made Edmure Tully completely numb. With no experience in the battlefield, he came up with an idea after a while, which made the other nobles gathered in Riverrun frown.

After watching for a long time, they confirmed that their army would be taken into the ditch by this master, and then took decisive action.

These veteran nobles with great prestige in the riverland began to lobby Edmure Tully not to easily raise troops, and at the same time put pressure on him to give Clay Man in the Twins City Dele wrote.

After the cavalry of the Vale of Arryn began to attack the three eastern cities of Riverrun, the reinforcements sent by Edmure were easily copied by the cavalry of the Valemen, and then they were divided and surrounded without any waves breaking up.

Since then, Edmure Tully has never sent reinforcements to the three besieged eastern cities. The lords of those three cities in Riverrun are jumping every day, but there is nothing they can do.

Because this is a state of war, they can of course just leave, but this means that in any subsequent actions, they will be excluded from the city of Riverrun, which is not worth the loss.

Clay entered the hall, and immediately saw the bearded Edmure Tully wearing a thick cloak and standing silently in front of the huge sand table.

"Ha, Clay Mandalay, you're here. How did you become like this? It's very difficult now."

When they met, Edmure Tully gave Clay such a sentence, which made Clay frown slightly.

"Lord Duke Edmure, let's not talk about that for now. I don't know the situation on the battlefield. When I arrived at the Twin Rivers, something happened to His Majesty's army, so I don't know more than you."

Clay said something lightly, took off his heavy cloak, and walked swiftly to the sand table.

Edmure Tully smiled mischievously. He couldn't stand up in front of this Clay Manderly. He was the one who rescued him when he was a prisoner.

In the subsequent battle to break the siege of Riverrun and the battle to defeat the Lannister army, without the command of this Clay Manderly, I still don't know where I am now.

"Master Clay, the current situation is like this. At present, our army is shrinking along the city of Riverrun, and the Lannisters in the west are also locked in the city of Golden Tooth without any movement."

Clay nodded. Since Jaime Lannister was sent back to the West by his father, Lord Tywin, he has been very honest. Apart from leading a group of recruits to beat up the ironmen who came ashore, he did nothing. did not do.

Seeing that Clay did not speak, the Earl of Raventree City who had just introduced Clay continued:
"Before you came, Lord Edmure sent an army of 2000 men to rescue Stonewall City, Acorn Hall and Stone Hall Town, which were under attack, but it is clear that the Valemen are waiting for us nearby."

"How many people are there in the valley, have you figured this out? I don't want to listen to what the soldiers tell you, it will affect everyone's judgment."

Clay interjected. What he wanted to know was whether the valley had put all the ten thousand cavalry here, or had it left a reserve.

If 1 people are here, it is a clear card, and the battle will be relatively easy to fight.

"Well... it should be. The soldiers who escaped and the ravens sent to us by the three cities all said that they encountered many enemies. If the whole army of the valley was not here, they would not be able to surround so many places."

As the actual commander of the battlefield, the Earl of Raventree City touched his chin and gave his own judgment.

Clay nodded and said calmly:
"1 people are here, but they don't attack Riverrun, and use the cavalry as infantry. This is forcing us to go out of the city and fight them."

Clay clicked on the location of the three cities, pointed to Riverrun where he was, circled a small space in the middle with his fingers, and said in a low voice:

"If I remember correctly, this place should be a continuous plain without any mountains, right?"

"That's right, it's all fertile land of my Tully family, and the population is relatively dense."

Edmure Tully felt a little displeased at being sidelined again, and took the opportunity to interject.

Clay didn't have the time to understand his thoughts, so he patted the place and said with a sneer:

"That's it. You see, they are all cavalry. Although they have dismounted and become infantry now, the horse herd must be nearby. If we attack rashly, they can mount as fast as possible."

Clay tapped twice on the plain with his index knuckles:

"What a great battlefield, there is not even a single forest or mountain range, 2 people in Riverrun go out, they only need to reproduce the tactics against King Robb, and charge at night, even if these 2 people can stand still, they will definitely suffer heavy losses .”

Seeing the faces of the nobles in Hejian in the hall getting worse and worse, Clay gave the final conclusion:

"The Valley people don't even need to completely annihilate you, as long as you are maimed and hurt, it is enough to completely cut off the idea of ​​Dongjin rescue."

"It doesn't make any sense for them to defeat you. Since they chose to cooperate with Tywin Lannister, their first goal is to go south. After the two stags fight, they will eat the winner directly and restore their throne in King's Landing. .”

Clay sharply pointed out the logic behind the strange style of play of the Valley Cavalry, because if it was guided by the thought of destroying the country, then the Valley Cavalry should come directly from the barracks under the city of Riverrun.

"So, what we have to do now is absolutely not to send troops easily. If we are here, the cavalry in the valley will not dare to retreat. Tywin Lannister must also stay under Harrenhal to watch His Majesty Robb."

"There is food in Harrenhal. It's great to spend it with Tywin Lannister, but if King's Landing City decides the winner, I'll see what he will do then."
