"Hiss —"
The black dragon was like a fairy in the storm, nimbly moving through the thunder and lightning. Blue and white fork-shaped lightning flashed around him, adding to his mysterious power.
"Hiss —" The black dragon drilled out of the dark clouds and hovered more than a thousand meters above the Flying Dragon Tower. It did not immediately rush down to spit fire.
But Sir Bacon and Lucian couldn't help but shout in fear, "Attack!"
The lion-armored soldiers immediately pulled the trigger, and more than thirty treadmill-sized crossbows shot out a thin rain of arrows. The crossbow arrows, as tall as a person, made a long air passage in the rain. They flew more than three hundred meters high before they slowly hovered in the air and then accelerated to fall into the sea.
"Hiss —" The black dragon lowered its head and hissed. Before the second wave of arrows arrived, it flapped its wings and flew to the Galen ship with the True Dragon flag on the sea.
"The Megalosaurus ran away. Megalosaurus is also afraid of the Dragon Slayer crossbow. We drove away the Megalosaurus!!!"
Sir Bacon was stunned. His fear disappeared and he cheered excitedly.
"The Dragon Slayer crossbow is so powerful, far beyond the attack range of the Megalosaurus' dragon flame. At the top of the Flying Dragon Tower, the crossbow arrows can almost cover the entire Stone Drum Tower. "
Although they didn't hit the Megalosaurus, they might have forced it to not dare to come down. Sir Lucian was also very happy.
"Long live King Tommen, long live Lannister!" Under the leadership of Sir Bacon, more than a hundred lion-armored soldiers on the tower shouted loudly.
"Sir, you attacked the Megalosaurus." Scholar Pylos's mouth was red and swollen, but he still looked serious and dutifully reminded his lord at this time. "You attacked the Megalosaurus, which means you refused the Dragon Queen's persuasion to surrender."
Lucian raised his eyebrows and said disapprovingly, "You saw it. With the Dragon Slayer crossbow, the Megalosaurus didn't dare to approach the Stone Drum Tower. With only a thousand shrimp soldiers and crab generals, she can't break through the castle defense of Dragonstone Island. "
"Woo woo woo —"
On the sea.
At the center of the fleet, two kilometers away from Dragonstone Island, the flagship, Leila, was the first to sound an urgent horn.
Yes, before we set off, the old crab wanted to change the name of the new Red Crab to "Holy Danny Lisi". The Dragon Queen declined with a smile and suggested that the flagship be named "Leila".
"Wu wu wu —"
On the other side of Dragonstone Island, a bugle horn sounded, signaling the start of the attack. Four hundred armored soldiers holding the flag of the three-headed dragon walked along the rugged mountain path, slowly approaching the castle gate.
"Hahaha, the Evil Dragon is so angry that it wants to attack the Stone Drum Tower!" Black Armor Duke Rick pointed at the Long family's soldiers on the hill in the distance. He leaned on the wooden frame of the dragon-slaying crossbow and laughed, "Lucian, do you see that? Only four hundred armored soldiers dare to attack Dragonstone Island? That woman doesn't know anything about the defenses of her hometown. "
"Sir Berk, leave this to me. You go down and teach those traitors a lesson. Let them know the price of betraying the Iron Throne." Lucian said coldly.
"I'll make sure they don't return!" Sir Berk laughed cruelly and left.
Glancing at the young scholar with wet hair who was still standing respectfully at the side, Lucian frowned and said, "Scholar Pylos, send a message to the King's Landing immediately. Tell King Toman that the reinforcements can take their time. There's no need to rush.
I swear on the name of Lannister that the Mother Of Dragons won't be able to take down Dragonstone Island in a month. "
Ten minutes later.
A messenger crow flew away from the crow's nest in the Sea Dragon Tower and flew towards the city by the bay in the west.
"Caw caw —" The sound of a dragon's roar could be heard vaguely.
Lucian had been using a telescope to observe the large Galen ship. At this time, he could vaguely see two Megalosaurus, one white and one black, jumping out from the stern of the ship. They first glided away from the tower for a distance, then increased their altitude and their figures gradually disappeared in the misty water.
"Where did those two beasts go? What is Danny Lisi Targaryen doing? "
With a puzzled expression, he held the telescope and kept turning it in the direction, observing the sky in all directions, hoping to find the location of the Megalosaurus' attack.
"Caw —"
"Caw —"
Suddenly, a sharp whistling sound came from above. Lucian and the other lion-helmeted guards looked up and their pupils contracted. Their expressions changed drastically. Two black "stones" the size of bathtubs fell straight down from the sky.
At this moment, the two dragons once again disappeared into the misty rain. The two huge terracotta tanks had accelerated by a thousand meters and were only five hundred meters away from the top of the tower.
"The Seven Levels of Hell, the Megalosaurus can actually throw stones to hit people?" Lucian's expression changed drastically. He looked at the direction where the "giant stones" were falling and ran out of the falling range in a few steps. He even shouted, "Quick, quick dodge, the platform is big enough, don't squeeze!"
Yes, the Flying Dragon Tower was big enough. It used to be able to stop a Megalosaurus like Bellerion. The area was bigger than a basketball court. When the two terracotta tanks fell, of course, they could dodge.
But …
"Those are terracotta tanks?! “
"Boom, boom!"
The fragments of the terracotta tanks flew in all directions, penetrating the armor and flesh, bringing about waves of screams among the surrounding soldiers.
The liquid in the terracotta tanks fell down at high speed, splashed, and turned into a cloud of oil mist. It was still flying in the air, but it burned fiercely.
“BOOOM!!!!”
A ten-meter-tall mushroom cloud rose from the top of the Flying Dragon Tower, formed by red fire and black smoke.
Mutilated corpses, intact corpses, and burning corpses that were still flying in the air, wailing in pain, along with broken crossbows and twisted arrows, flew in all directions.
They fell into the bottom of the cliff, onto the roof of the stone drum tower behind, and into the courtyard.
The entire castle shook slightly.
Six hundred kilograms of kerosene almost ignited the Flying Dragon Tower into a towering torch. The fierceness of the fire could be felt a few kilometers away. Sixty crossbowmen, fifty strong archers, and their commander, Sir Lucian, were wiped out in one wave.
"How terrifying!" Crab Number Two's eyes widened. He was frightened and excited.
"I didn't expect the Megalosaurus to be used like this …" Old Yimont wore a sealskin cloak and looked in the direction of the Flying Dragon Tower with blurred eyes. He muttered, "As long as we are careful enough, the Dragon-slaying Crossbow seems to be ineffective against the Megalosaurus."
"It's too strong. If the terracotta tanks were not filled with kerosene but wildfire, if it did not fall into the Flying Dragon Tower, but …"
Old Crab spat out two words with a pale face. "King's Landing, Red Castle!"
"Let the Leila get close to the cliff behind the castle. We'll board from there." Danny had her hands behind her back. The sea breeze mixed with the drizzle lifted the hair on her temples, adding some coldness to her beautiful face.
"Hiss —"
"Hiss —"
Dahei and Little White landed on the deck, causing the huge ship to shake violently a few times.
Ten minutes later, they each carried a terracotta tank sealed with a wooden lid to the top of the castle.
Amidst the terrified screams of the guards, they ignited two sentry towers with a few ordinary siege crossbows, burning dozens of lion-helmeted guards to death.
"Rumble —"
When the Leila was three hundred meters away from the cliff behind the castle, more than ten pillars of fire were already burning around the stone drum tower.
Thick smoke billowed, and a burnt smell filled the air. Even the people on the ship could smell the roasted meat.
"Hiss —"
"Hiss —"
This time, Blackie and Little White did not carry the terracotta tanks. Instead, they lowered a long rope ladder with three or four knights standing on it.
They first seized the Flying Dragon Tower where the flames were gradually extinguishing. With steel shields in hand, they set up a defensive formation at the entrance of the corridor.
After the two dragons went back and forth for more than ten times, close to a hundred honorable knights in iron armor had gathered on the tower. Only then did the Dragon Queen descend on the black dragon.
The honorable knights did not disperse their formation.
According to the battle plan, Bronn had already led four hundred armored soldiers to seal the exit. The lions had nowhere to run.
That's right, the four hundred Long Family soldiers from the fishing village did not charge at the castle gate at all. They formed a tight formation and blocked the narrow stone path outside the gate.
"Hiss —" Blackie raised its neck, and the crimson dragon flames in its mouth quickly condensed into a fireball the size of a washbasin. It fell into Danny's palm under everyone's shocked gazes.
"True Dragons need the flesh of lions to fill their stomachs. Come with me and clean up Dragonstone Island!"
Ten fully armored knights holding arc-shaped shields walked at the front, followed by archers and knights holding spears and swords.
Everyone was wearing iron armor and helmets.
Danny walked at the back, protected by Barristan.
Blackie and Little White did not stop working on the "transport plane". The Dragon Queen led a hundred of her armored subordinates to cross the castle's defensive line. They went from top to bottom and from the back to the front. While they were massacring the enemies with their overwhelming military strength, the two dragons also continuously transported soldiers from the ships.
Yes, the castle on Dragonstone Island was built on the side of a mountain, and the terrain was dangerous. Every killing hole, battlements, and sentry tower was an insurmountable obstacle, and every obstacle could take out dozens of times the number of enemies.
For example, the Knight of Flowers, Loras, because he charged too quickly, he was burned into a strengthened hunting dog by the boiling oil that was poured out of the killing cave …
However, all the obstacles only defended the bottom and not the top. They were completely unable to stop the Dragon Queen's Bursting Orange Team.
Furthermore, Lannister's forces were scattered. He arranged guards at every obstacle. There were more than ten obstacles, and there were only ten or twenty people guarding each one. How could they stop Dragon Queen's hundred-man armored team?
The Dragon Queen was even using cheats. She raised a large fireball and shot out small fireballs.
As the Dragon Queen slowly but steadily pushed forward, the number of Long Family soldiers attacking the castle gradually exceeded the number of lions. The number of soldiers with three-headed dragon insignia on their breastplates increased, and the lion-helmeted soldiers began to scatter and flee …
"Wuwuwuwu …"
When the lion-helmeted golden-robed soldiers panicked and opened the castle gates to rush out, Bronn outside the castle blew the horn to attack.
.....
After Duke Tywin's death, Cersei became the Queen Regent.
The boss's ability and skill in controlling his subordinates determined the upper limit of the quality of his subordinates.
A muddle-headed and incompetent king would have many mediocre officials.
Cersei's ambition was higher than the heavens. Her ability, wisdom, and methods were almost on par with her eldest son, Joffrey.
After she became the Queen Regent, the King's Landing court started a feast of crows.
Ministers who were truly talented and dared to speak their minds, such as Kevan Lannister, had all left the center of power. Villains who were not well-known but were good at flattering and making the empress dowager happy had entered the palace and occupied high positions in the court.
When the Queen Dowager was trapped in the Great Holy Church by Sparrow and was being adjusted, her Hand of the King, Orton Marrives, ran away.
Her admiral, Orion Marrives, brought 'Cersei's fleet' and escaped from the King's Landing.
Her treasury manager, Harris Swyver, and Grand Secretary Pycelle not only did not try to rescue her, they seized the opportunity when the Queen Dowager was not around to seize control of the court.
The Queen Dowager of the Seven Kingdoms, who was once worshipped by thousands, was now left with 'Poison Scholar' Cabourn as an obedient official.
More than a week ago, when the City of Knowledge informed the King's Landing that the Dragon Queen had violated the rights of the guests and burned down the City of Knowledge, the Imperial Conference controlled by Grand Secretary Pycelle did not pay much attention to it.
The City of Knowledge was far from the King's Landing!
It was even further away from the King's Landing than Myr and Tyrossi. News of the Dragon Queen had come from the other side of the narrow sea a long time ago.
At the beginning, Pycelle was still very worried about the restoration of the True Dragons. He even conspired with Tywin to assassinate the Dragon Queen.
But now that two years had passed, news of the Dragon Queen kept coming, and he was numb.
So be it. After all, it was the City of Knowledge that was burned down by the dragons. Moreover, she had violated the rights of the guests. Seven Gods above, this was great news!
The Dragon Queen was even crazier than her father.
No noble in the Seven Kingdoms would support the second Mad King.
It was as if the second shoe had finally fallen. Pycelle was relieved and relieved.
He started to cooperate with the City of Knowledge to increase the public opinion of the Dragon Queen that 'the second Mad King is better than the first'.
Until he received a series of messenger crows: 'The Dragon Queen has arrived at Tidehead Island, and the Dragon Queen has sent troops to Dragonstone Island …'
'Perhaps, I should encourage the Great Sparrow to kill that idiot Cersei.' The Grand Secretary thought sadly.
