Chapter 33: War Begins! War Begins!
Come to surrender? Liu Yuan was a little surprised. If they were from the Stan clan, they should have been brought here by Greg. Could it be that some small clans came to surrender on their own initiative? I don't want to think about it anymore, I'd better meet them.
Liu Yuan said to Piccolo: "Bring them in! And this, send someone to give it to Mutos and tell him to carry out the construction according to the drawings. If there are not enough people, help him arrange soldiers to assist." Then he handed a stack of drawings in his hand to Piccolo.
Soon, Bick and the soldiers came with several sturdy men, all about 1.9 meters tall. They were all dressed in animal skins and had no weapons. One of them was holding an object covered with animal skins in both hands. Liu Yuan looked at them with interest: "I heard that you wanted to see me. Tell me, what do you want?"
The first man spoke: "Sir, I am Al Kroll, the current patriarch of the Kroll clan. May I ask if you are a lord from the mainland? You should not serve Winterfell, right?" His common language was a little unfamiliar.
Liu Yuan smiled: "Oh! I am indeed the Lord of Westeros, so what if I serve Winterfell?"
Al knelt on the ground, and the others behind him knelt down quickly. Al tore off the animal skin, and what he held in his hand was a deer-horned beast helmet, inlaid with gold and silver foil, with a simple and rough workmanship, and it was very old.
El held up the stag horn helmet and said respectfully: "My lord, the Magnar clan colluded with the Bolton family of the Dreadfort to capture and kill our people. We also united with the Stan people to resist, but suffered a tragic defeat and could only retreat to the Abyss Fort. But they did not intend to give us a way out and attacked our hunting team. Now food is very scarce. If you can save us, the Klauer clan is willing to be loyal and swear to submit to you forever! This stag horn helmet is the heritage of the clan, and now I present it to you." El was still a little hesitant, but he just saw the strength of the outsider. You know, in the decisive battle, the Bolton family only sent two hundred soldiers to participate in the battle, and defeated the coalition. And the warriors he saw alone were three or four thousand, and they looked better armed, which made him more determined to surrender.
Liu Yuan didn't expect this man to be so sensible and actually bow down, so he asked: "As far as I know, you Skaggs have sworn allegiance directly to the Stark family. Is it okay for you to join my army like this?"
El replied respectfully: "My lord, it was the Magnar clan who swore an oath to the Starks, and it was they who were canonized. We are merely represented, and the Stark family has never cared about our lives."
Liu Yuan was also quite satisfied with his attitude. He took the stag-horn helmet and said to them: "Very good, I accept the loyalty of the Klauer clan. My name is: Garon Morningstar, and I will be your lord from today. But I have to say that if you decide to become my subordinate, you must obey my orders completely. I will guarantee the safety of your people and keep them away from hunger and cold. If you dare to betray me, you will face the wrath of my 30,000 warriors!"
On the first day of arriving at Skaggs Island, he conquered the Klauer Clan, one of the three major forces. Liu Yuan was quite satisfied. The territory of the Klauer Clan was relatively poor, and the clan members had more contact with the outside world for their livelihood. The entire clan had only more than 4,000 people, and only about 800 strong warriors. With his ability, it was not a big problem to feed these people.
But they would never eat for free, and immediately ordered all the young men and women of the Klauer clan to be brought to the Skinning Bay to work. In addition, a thousand warriors were sent to the Abyss Castle with a large amount of food to protect the old, young, women and children left behind by the clan. This would certainly cause dissatisfaction among the Klauer clan, but it was forcibly suppressed by Al. He understood that this was a test and a temptation. Handing over the clan land and the old, young, women and children of the clan was both a hostage and a manifestation of loyalty. He resolutely carried out Liu Yuan's order.
The arrival of these Klaus provided a large amount of labor. Cutting down trees did not require any skills, and all Liu Yuan had to pay was some food.
The issue at the Driftwood Hall was resolved, as Greg had already pledged his allegiance to the Stan clan. Reid convened a high-level meeting that evening, and Greg persuaded all the leaders and minor clan leaders to pledge their allegiance to Liu Yuan. Liu Yuan sent out five hundred-man teams to cooperate with the Stan clan warriors to wipe out the Magnar raiding team.
Such a big commotion here naturally alarmed the Magnar people. King's Hall is the home castle of the Magnar clan, located on a hill on the southeast coast of Skaggs Island. It is more like a palace than a castle, with only a tower and a low wall built at the entrance of the hill. Below the hill is a small fishing port, with a large number of wooden houses scattered nearby, forming three large villages.
The Magnars are much more civilized than their relatives on the island, and the Magnar clan is the only noble family on the island. It can be traced back to more than 1,600 years ago, when the Magnars "represented" the island of Skagos to surrender to the Stark family. Their family emblem is a green lobster against a white background, with a black harpoon in its claws. Their surname also comes from the ancient word "Magnar", which means lord.
In the meeting hall, the leaders of the Magna people gathered together to discuss. In addition, there was a group of people who were indifferent to the discussion and just drank on the side. The clan leader, Toren Magna, glanced at them and cursed the damn Bolton bastards. There was nothing he could do about it. A few years ago, the Bolton family approached him and the two sides cooperated to capture young men and young women to obtain the iron and food that the clan urgently needed.
But the other party's appetite is getting bigger and bigger. Since last year, they have already started to attack the other Clan Klauer. What he couldn't accept the most was that the illegitimate son of the Bolton family actually sold the young patriarch of the Stan clan to a slave trader without telling him. As a result, the Stan clan was forced to go to war. At this point, the Magnar clan can no longer escape. Fortunately, they won in the end! But after more than a year of conflict, their own people also suffered heavy losses. Now, whether they turn against the Bolton family or the other party voluntarily withdraws? They have to face the full-scale counterattack of the other two major clans.
According to the intelligence obtained, since two days ago, the territories of the Clan Klauer and Clan Stan have discovered signs of unknown scale of mobilization. Many raider teams have been attacked and no detailed information can be obtained. The other party is likely to unite again to attack Magna. Now the leaders are discussing how to deal with it, but the people of the Bolton family are drinking and watching the show nearby.
Torun Magna spoke up: "Coach Bailey, what do you think of the enemy's unusual behavior?"
Bailey is a man in his thirties with typical northern appearance. He was originally a free rider, but because of his excellent weapons, he was recruited by Roose Bolton to be the martial arts instructor of the Dreadfort. He is his absolute confidant, so he can be sent out to do such dirty work.
Bailey said nonchalantly: "Sir Toren, you worry too much. Don't worry about such a small matter. The Kraul people and the four single men have suffered heavy losses. Even if they unite again, so what? At most, we can fight again. Just destroy them all. The warriors of the Bolton family are fearless~" After he finished speaking, he raised his glass high, and the Bolton soldiers on the side also raised their glasses and cheered: "Fearless!"
"Boom!" Along with their shouts, there was a loud bang, and the whole hall shook. A Magna guard pushed open the door and shouted: "Chief, Chief, we are attacked. There is a ship outside, a big ship!"
The people in the hall didn't care about anything else and rushed out. When they ran out, they could see clearly that there were several meteor-like fireballs flying from a distance in the sky. At this time, whether it was the castle or the village below, there were flames. People looked up and saw five three-masted sailing ships blocking the port. The catapults on the decks threw fireballs at the King's Hall. On the black sails, the pale skulls were so eye-catching.
Bailey's eyes were bloodshot because he saw two galleys burning in the harbor. He grabbed the soldier next to him and yelled at him: "Go! Send someone to put out the fire. This is Lord Bolton's property. If it is destroyed, I will peel off your skin." The soldier ran away in a panic. Unfortunately, before he ran far, a fireball fell from the sky and hit his feet. The splashing kerosene immediately burned him into a torch. The shrill screams were chilling, and everyone looked for something to use as a shield.
After all, Toren was the clan leader. He saw that the enemy only had these five ships. The harbor was already ablaze and the enemy could not go ashore. He began to calmly command the guards to put out the fires everywhere, and even abandoned the small fishing boats in the harbor. As for the two rowing warships on fire, they were the property of the Bolton family and had nothing to do with him.
The catapults fired fireballs for a long time, and the five ships on the sea finally stopped attacking. They all turned around gracefully and sailed away to the northeast. Only the devastated port was left behind, with wooden houses burning everywhere, and the wailing of men and the crying of women and children shook the sky.
Fortunately, the enemy did not continue to attack, and the chaos caused by the catapults gradually subsided. The number of casualties was not large, but the port was completely destroyed and all the ships were burned.
Those ships were all flying black sails, they must be pirates from the south. Although I don't know why they are mixed with the other two clans, how many people can they gather? At this point, Toren is not afraid anymore, at worst he can just go to war. The population of the Magnar clan is over 10,000, and there are 4,000 to 5,000 clan members living near the King's Hall. He can pull out 3,000 warriors at a time, and it is no problem to gather 5,000 people including some small dependent tribes. As for the soldiers of the Bolton family, their ships were burned, and there was no other way to retreat. After this battle, the entire Skaggs Island will once again return to the rule of the Magnar clan! And he is the king of the 'Rockseed'!
Bailey led his men to the port and looked at the rowing warships that had been burned to charcoal. He knelt down and muttered, "It's over, it's all over! How should I explain to Lord Bolton?" Two warships! You know, Roose Bolton took great pains to build only ten rowing warships, and two of them were destroyed right under his nose. I don't know how Lord Roose Bolton would deal with him if he knew about it. It's chilling to think about it.
Toren walked up to him and said sternly, "Those pirates must be helpers from the other two clans. I have decided to go to war with them! This time I will concentrate all my strength to defeat them all at once. You must also join the battle."
Bailey was stunned and said angrily: "How dare you order me? You have to understand that we are Lord Bolton's soldiers. We are here to help you, not your men."
Torun spit at him with disdain: "Bah! You are the one who is confused! Your ship has been burned, and there is no way to retreat. If we fail in this battle with the enemy, what will happen to you? And our food will be used to feed the soldiers. If you don't want to join us, just go to the sea and catch fish to eat!"
"You~!..." Bailey stared at Toren angrily and reached for the hilt of his sword. Toren no longer cared about the Bolton family. The Magnar clansmen immediately surrounded them, holding all kinds of weapons in their hands and staring at them viciously. Bailey held back his curse words and was shaking with anger.
Toren said calmly, "Bailey, you still have one last chance. As long as you fully cooperate with me in the battle and destroy all enemies, if you can seize the pirates' warships, I will give you half. As long as you hand them over to Lord Bolton, it will be enough to exempt you from punishment."
Bailey thought carefully, one of those three-masted sailing ships was enough to buy four rowing boats. If he presented it to Lord Bolton, he might even get a reward. He nodded and said, "Okay, I agree. My soldiers and I will fully cooperate with you in the battle. Sir Toren, please remember your promise. We want half of the ships."
Toren: "We Skaggs value promises the most. After the battle is won, half of all the captured warships will be given to you." He thought to himself, what do you have to rob the ship? Those pirates can't be defeated, so can't they just run away? You can swim and chase them! He used the ship to trick these Bolton soldiers into fighting for their lives. How many of them can survive after the battle? Haha...
The five ships were sent by Liu Yuan, with the purpose of sinking the ships of Macnah and Bolton. After he conquered the two major clans, he had a deeper understanding of Skagos Island. The conflicts between the tribes were basically on the scale of a hundred people. A battle of four or five hundred people was considered a major battle. Even the last battle of the three major clans only had more than two thousand people combined. It was really an exaggeration for him to lead such a large army here. He turned his head and glared at Gregg fiercely: "I'm here to avenge you. If I had known that you would only fight at this level, I would not have gone to Slaver's Bay. It would be enough for me to lead the guards and not borrow any more soldiers from the Celtigar family."
Greg scratched his head innocently: "Boss, I am innocent! You didn't tell me what you were going to do at the beginning. I just listened to you along the way. Besides, you didn't ask!"
