The king on the Great Wall
Page 244
……
Daenerys was a little disappointed.
Iger's reaction was reasonable, and I had already expected that he would object... But, even if I was mentally prepared, when I really found out that the softness in my heart could not get the support and approval of anyone around me, even this Even when the man whom she regards as her confidant and comrade, whom she has always looked at differently, is no exception, strong helplessness, loss and grievance still emerge uncontrollably.
Followed by a string of negative emotions, there is a rebellion that emerges from the bones.
She felt the dragon's wrath ignited deep within her.
This may be the son of the elder brother whom he revered, and his last living blood relative with the same surname!
Of course, she would patiently listen to and accept those obviously correct suggestions, tricks, and even criticisms, but—how to deal with the false king suspected of being her nephew, is there a clear distinction between right and wrong?
It's not your blood that flows in his bones, so of course you don't feel sorry for him!
The two dragons were placed in an open space [-] meters away from the center of the camp, and the surrounding river bend military camps had already been dismantled. When the queen and her prime minister walked here side by side and stopped briefly, they were gnawing on Daenerys The cattle and sheep fed by Sipai raised their heads curiously when they sensed the real dragon breath on Iger.
"I hope to get your support, Iger." Daenerys poked her neck slightly in front of the open-air dragon house, covering up the grievance and choking in her voice, "but if you really insist on objecting out of reason, I have no choice but to I hereby issue an order to you in the name of the Queen, that Aegon Targaryen must be captured alive, and his fate must be judged and judged by me!"
A familiar sense of displeasure immediately lingered in Iger's heart, and it took him a few seconds to figure out where this familiarity came from: In the original world, whenever his girlfriend made trouble for no reason, there would be such a feeling in his stomach. annoyed.However, anger is nothing but anger. In most cases, as long as a man still doesn't want to break up, he will probably suppress his unhappiness and coax him.
For his own sake, little Aegon had to die.
Don't say that there is a high probability that he is fake, even if it is true, it is useless.
Jesus couldn't keep him, I said!
Iger had made up his mind to kill, but at this moment he remembered another troublesome thing he had encountered before crossing.
There was once a neighbor who insisted on not carrying out the renovation according to the legal time, and woke up the upstairs and downstairs neighbors from their dreams countless times early in the morning.Good words are useless, after many quarrels, complaints and even calling the police, they only restrained themselves a little. In the end, the villain got his revenge. Not only the glass was broken, but the tires were also deflated...
The matter was quite satisfactory up to this point, but the next person insisted that it was Iger who did these things (because he came to negotiate the most noise matters), and made a big noise and asked him to admit his mistakes and pay compensation, although in the end he refused because of no evidence After all, the nausea still haunted him for a long time.
This is not a big deal, but the "true culprit" who has been hidden in the dark has made Iger understand a truth, that is: if you are determined to take hostile actions, it is best not to say anything superfluous other than actual actions If so, do anything superfluous.
With Iger's current power and status within the camp, he can stick to his own opinion, speak out and remonstrate, argue with Daenerys and even quarrel.
But if you do that, it's okay if you succeed in persuading the queen to make her back down. If not, the queen insists on going her own way. She can use her status as a superior to forcibly stop the pursuit of little Aegon, and replace it with trusted troops who obey orders to complete the war. The second half without difficulty... Then, no matter what clever means I used to make little Aegon "accidentally die", the queen would suspect him.
And seeing Daenerys's stiff expression and changing tone, Iger really didn't have the confidence to persuade her.
He never dared to forget that in front of him was a noble, intelligent, and beautiful potential mental patient with the Mad King gene.
After some mental journey, Iger made up his mind.
"Your Majesty." He sighed in a firm but unwilling tone, "reason and sense of responsibility make me have to reserve my objection. But at the same time, I also clearly remember: in Winterfell, it was you who cut your wrists and let out blood. I am very poisonous. My life belongs to Your Majesty, and I will not hesitate to go to the mountains of swords and seas of fire for you. You are making a dangerous and wrong decision, but if you have fully thought through the pros and cons, you will still Decide to bear the consequences of doing so, accept the risk of doing so...then, I am willing to stand behind Your Majesty from beginning to end, accompany and solve your problems, and fight any difficulties and enemies with you until the last moment of my life."
?
day!
It was too warm too.
Daenerys was caught off guard by this sudden change in attitude.
She is a powerful and iron-blooded dragon queen, but she is still a woman, and for a woman, what could be more comforting than being accepted and pampered by a man she trusts for her occasional willful nonsense?
Not to mention, this tenderness also comes from a night watchman who is known for being tougher and more ruthless than her!
Say thank you?It doesn't fit the status, and it's too outsider.
No expression or even take it for granted?Then she's not that stupid.
I only saved Iger's life once, and it was in an almost risk-free situation.
But what he has done for himself has far surpassed equality, to the extent that she has nothing to repay!
The night wind in spring was still cold, but the little queen's face became inexplicably hot, and she sucked her nose that became moist for some reason, and she was at a loss for a while, like an innocent girl who had confessed her love.
Feeling the change of mother's state of mind, the green dragon Drogon, who was closer to the two, stretched his long neck and brought his head closer. While blowing Danni's face with his breath, he looked sideways at Iger again, trying to figure out why there was something wrong with him. That inexplicably powerful aura.
Daenerys raised a hand that had no place to rest and scratched Lei Ge's nose, but still couldn't relieve the embarrassment of being blank in her mind and not knowing what to say. Thinking of Erlong's inexplicable closeness and friendly attitude towards Iger, she suddenly felt idea.
"Egg, have you ever thought about riding a dragon?"
-
Chapter 695 The power of blowing dust
Windfall.
Iger expressed his loyalty with a scumbag, and his initial starting point was very simple: since the ending is doomed, it is better to brush up the Queen's favorability than quarreling... It will be beneficial to both work and people in the future.
Who would have thought that because of the lack of love and the fact that the conversation happened next to the dragon house, the queen said on the spot: He should try to ride the green dragon!
The implication is that as long as he can sit on it, Lei Ge will be his mount from now on.
Take a dragon as a reward!
Even though he felt that he had done enough for the queen, such an unusual but heavy reward still exceeded Iger's expectations.
How much is a one-stop service?
Economically, no one can say for sure, after all, in the known history of the world of ice and fire, there is no definite record of buying and selling adult dragons with clearly marked prices.
But corresponding to the military, there are ready-made reference examples, which are right in front of Iger:
In today's decisive battle during the day, it was precisely because the queen and the dragon did not show up for a long time that the Hewan army had the courage to push the dragon hunting crossbow that was supposed to be deployed behind the formation to the front-this operation actually caused a lot of trouble. A series of chain reactions were triggered: because the ground shooting of the Dragon Hunting Crossbow put great pressure on the Western Front infantry of the Queen's Army, Iger had to immediately invest in the second line of three phalanxes for support, and at the same time dispatched half of the artillery to suppress it hit.These two responses did relieve the pressure in a short period of time, but the former order left him with almost no soldiers to use in the last wave of surface attack, and the latter made the fire suppression of the other two lines of the Western Expeditionary Army obviously insufficient. ...making an otherwise sure-fire battle dangerous.
It is conceivable that if there were two dragons at the beginning—no, even just one—circling over the battlefield... Even if they and the queen did not dive into the battle because they were afraid of the threat of the dragon-hunting crossbow, regardless of the encouragement of one's own side and the enemy's The psychological pressure on Fang can at least be affirmed: the "air defense force" of the Hewan Army will never dare to switch to ground combat rashly.And this also means that the dragon can at least hold back the output of a dozen of the enemy's large killers and hundreds of elite crossbow engineers, thus making the ground combat of the Western Expeditionary Army easy and orderly, just as originally imagined Unfolding, without any suspense, victory after victory, until the ending is known.
With such a total, a rough but clear inference in the general direction comes out.
Two dragons are at least equivalent to the armed forces of six thousand elite soldiers in three phalanxes on the battlefield. This number may further expand with the correct choice of investment timing and methods and exquisite command... There is no limit!
In addition, if Iger remembers correctly, Daenerys treats all three dragons as children.
This also means that in the decision of "allowing others to try to ride a dragon", the value of the dragon itself and how many divisions it can hold are not the most meaningful topics for discussion.What is more core or worthy of attention lies in this kind of permission and even the encouragement itself - the subtle change in emotion it represents: Daenerys has placed Iger's status and importance in her heart as "Dragon above the sons.
With such a good foundation, it is probably only a matter of time before riding a dragon after riding a dragon.
Under the approving and gratifying eyes of Daenerys, and the astonished stares of the guards and onlookers gasping for air, Iger also raised his hand, and placed it on Rhaego in a symmetrical manner with the Queen. on the front nose.
The direct touch made the power of the real dragon instantly transmit to the green dragon's head in the form of bioelectricity, and Lei Ge felt as if he had eaten a big mouthful of mustard.Then, a scene similar to the last time we met outside the Last Hearth City was staged again: After shaking all over, it bent its knees, lowered its shoulders, lowered its neck, and crushed Xi Zheng with a crisp click sound. The soldiers of the army built wooden strips around the dragon house, which was used to enclose the giant dragon in name, but in fact it was a fence to stop idiots from dying, and once again made the fence that any species and any culture can understand the meaning at a glance. Body language: six body prostration, lying down!
Daenerys raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Unlike Iger, it was the first time she saw Rhaego in such a submissive manner—this posture seemed shameful, but it was actually very similar to Drogon's posture when she was about to get on and off the dragon's back, which was rare The difference is: when the black dragon bends down, it doesn't stick its entire tail to the ground.
Even when her "mother" wanted to ride a dragon, Drogon was not so good!
"Since His Majesty has given instructions, I shall follow them."
This is a reward from the king, and there is no reason to refuse it.Iger didn't know that Daenerys was feeling sour. He smiled and said something beautiful, and while still caressing the green dragon's steaming body with his hands, he took a step and stepped over the covered area. The destroyed fence walked towards the "shoulders" of the huge winged lizard.
The black dragon not far away snorted heavily, and the surrounding soldiers who were drinking and eating meat were also attracted by the noise. Soon, a thin layer of people eating melons surrounded the dragon house.
Under the gaze of countless people or beasts, Iger passed the green dragon's solid and broad neck like a wall, and stood at the base of Lei Ge's wings.
As he stopped, the scene fell silent.The discussion just now stopped completely at this moment, and everyone shut their mouths and held their breath, waiting for the next move of the prime minister, for fear of disturbing the giant beast beside him by making any noise.
Iger is no longer a middle school boy. He doesn't have any burning desire or strong expectation for riding a dragon, but even if the psychological factors such as prestige and glory are thrown away, a flying and fire-breathing dragon is still a quick and convenient thing. The means of transportation plus the weapons of war with astonishing destructive power... suppressed by the aura on the scales bestowed by R'hllor, he has no doubts about the fact that he can ride a dragon. The only worry before was that he did not want to go beyond the queen's permission , Offended her private property without authorization.
And now, with Daenerys' promise, the last of the worries vanished.
He began to "climb the dragon".
The green dragon has never carried people, and its original purpose of lying down is only to show obedience and submission rather than to imply that Iger is on it, so it is not surprising: although Rhaego is low, he is not as skilled as his big brother Position yourself in such a way that you can easily get on and off.
But not much.
The leather scales on the adult dragon's body surface are rough and hard, not inferior to car tires. In addition, they are covered with criss-cross textures and bulges that are similar to the pimples on a toad's body. This makes the dragon's body itself constitute a An extremely low-difficulty "rock climbing" platform - as long as you are not afraid of the scorching body temperature emitted by their bodies, and the dragon itself does not move around, it is actually not difficult to climb up.
And these two requirements happen to be met at this moment.
The scales of R'hllor on the chest gave off a slight warmth under the skin, and the body of the dragon, which is hot to ordinary people, became warm and pleasant under his palms, and Lei, who was approaching the root of the wings, was caressed by Iger all the way. Brother, under the shock of the astonishing coercion of the scale of R'hllor, he didn't even dare to take a breath, let alone disturb his climbing.
So, grasping the hard protrusions at the root of the green dragon's wings with both hands, stepped into its half-foot-deep body surface texture with the toes of his boots, and exerted force with his hands and feet, Iger easily flipped up Rego's wing membrane , standing on the shoulders of giant beasts.Amidst the uniform sound of panting all over the field, he did not delay at all, but quickly continued his efforts—after a run-up step, he took off by stepping on the huge shoulder blades of the giant dragon, stepped on the rough arched back of the green dragon, and jumped up in one breath. Rego's back.
Effortless!
A loud exclamation spread throughout most of the camp. Simple-minded audiences were simply amazed at the fact that their commander-in-chief was able to ride a giant dragon, but those who thought a little deeper had already realized: the matter of being able to ride a giant dragon The political significance within the True Dragon Dynasty is extraordinary, and the wealth and safety of their followers is another layer of protection!
Not to mention the uproar among the soldiers watching, even Daenerys tried her best to hide her astonishment: she didn't know the Valyrian Freedom Fortress before the doomsday catastrophe, but one thing is certain--the place under her feet On the continent of Westeros, it has never happened before that an adult dragon can be tamed so smoothly.
A moment ago, she was worried that the green dragon would not submit obediently, so she put her hand on its head.Now, on the contrary, she suspects that there has been a "female love" in this world for a long time.
There are probably many secrets waiting to be discovered in this man!
"Don't move around, find a safe place and sit down!"
Daenerys' reminder pierced through the exclamation and discussion and passed to the dragon's back. This was not an aimless and out of words—it was a warning that Iger was almost half a beat late because Iger's movement on the dragon was too fast.The back of the dragon is as rough as a desert rock wall that has been weathered for thousands of years. As soon as Iger climbed up, he immediately lowered his center of gravity and came to the middle of the junction between the neck and back of the green dragon, just above the center of mass of the dragon as a whole. Squat down.What I was thinking in my heart was to lower my center of gravity to avoid being thrown off by the shaking of the dragon's body, but I only squatted down halfway, and my crotch touched a hard object and hurt it. After listening to Daenerys' warning, I lowered my head and looked. It is the skin surface along the spine on the dragon's back, with a row of large and small thick and hard spike-like protrusions.
Hey guys, how does this ride?
If you just sit down on your butt without paying attention and then fly half a circle in the air, you may only be able to ride a dragon obediently in this life, and you don't have to worry about riding a dragon knight anymore.
"Okay, Lei Ge has accepted you, it's night, you can't take off, come down!" Daenerys's shout continued to come from below, "It's useless to climb up, it's better to prepare Saddle and safety rope. Tomorrow I will teach the two red robe priests the ritual of controlling the dragon that I mastered in the Shadowlands, and let them do it for you. As long as you link your mind with Rego's consciousness a little, you can Save more than ten years of skill training and directly become a qualified dragon master!"
Iger followed the Queen's advice and returned to the ground along the original road.
At this time, two soldiers came running quickly on the camp avenue west of Longshe. At first, everyone thought they were two meddlers who heard about what happened in Longshe and wanted to come to join in the fun, until they were out of breath. Quickly ran to Iger and Daenerys, and reported loudly.
"Your Majesty, Your Excellency the Prime Minister. High Court has sent a negotiating mission, and they are waiting for a reply and release outside the west gate of the camp!"
-
Chapter 696 The Prime Minister and the "Queen"
"Leave it to you."
The queen threw down half a sentence briskly with a touch of playfulness, then turned around and drifted away.
This is not a pick, but a "shangfang sword" that Iger asked the queen before he set off from the king's collar on the road to the west:
As the proposer and implementer of the "Great King's Land Plan", he conquered the river bend and has the right to make decisions on the disposal of the nobles in the area and the terms of negotiation - Daenerys will never interfere in any way.
The queen, who had already left the novice stage, naturally understood the rationality and necessity of this request of "letting out a door". Now that she has just been coaxed and is satisfied, she is naturally even less likely to break her promise.
Therefore, Iger ordered to receive the negotiating mission after seeing him off respectfully, and returned to his commander-in-chief's account after finishing his mood, waiting for the guests.
After waiting for a while, noisy conversations came from far and near outside the tent.Iger instructed the negotiating mission to be searched before allowing them to visit. This arrogant and rude order obviously aroused the resentment of those searched. Protests and disputes soon rang out, and some female voices were mixed in for some reason.Just as he was wondering, the door cloth was lifted, and the guards came in.
"My lord, the leader of the negotiating team is Margaery Tyrell, she refused to accept our search, you see..."
Margaery Tyrell?
Iger's eyelids twitched.
Doesn't this woman understand that besides the eldest daughter of the Tyrell family, she is also little Aegon, the queen of the false king?
After a brief astonishment, he was overjoyed: This means that if the price cannot be negotiated, he only needs to withhold it, and he directly has a heavyweight hostage!
The two armies are not engaged in war?He doesn't have the burden of aristocrats, so he doesn't talk about this kind of shit Basic Law!
It is naturally inappropriate to ask the male guards to search the body of the enemy's "Queen", which is indeed because he has not thought carefully.Iger corrected it when he knew his mistake, and immediately came up with a remedy.
"Melisandre, go search yourself."
The red-robed woman nodded and followed the soldiers out of the tent, and the negotiation between the female voices immediately replaced the mixed arguments.After a few seconds, everything quieted down. It was obvious that someone had made a concession. Two minutes later, the tent door was opened again, and a slender figure in a dark green cloak with a hood followed behind the red-robed woman. came in.
"Miss Margery, emmm... No, ma'am? Or the queen?" Iger met the eyes of Flowers of High Garden with a playful expression, "You actually condescend to come to negotiate in person, I am really flattered , please sit down."
"Master Prime Minister, you are such a powerful official!" Margaret followed the guidance and came to sit down in front of him, her tone filled with grievance, anger and trembling, "Old friends meet, and they have to be searched to meet each other Is it worthless after years of friendship!"
Iger didn't answer immediately, but put away his smirk, rolled his eyes expressionlessly, and glanced at Melisandre.
The red-robed woman nodded to him imperceptibly: No problem.
Margaery was neither disguised by someone else's magic, nor did she carry a murder weapon that could be used for assassination.
interesting.
After he winked, Melisandre bowed slightly and exited the tent.
If an ordinary male negotiator came to see him, Iger would choose to let the red-robed woman stay in the room just in case, but Margaery?
Wearing dragon steel armor with a sword at hand and a table between them, if he is still afraid of such a young female nobleman who has just undergone a body search and has no strength to restrain a chicken, then he doesn't have to mess around .
……
"For special times, please forgive me."
He responded casually, then turned his gaze and glanced at Margaery.
