The Tengshi River originated from the Western Region and flowed towards Hejian before finally converging into the Trident River. Rapidflow City was located at the delta where the Tengshi River and the Trident River's tributary, the Red Fork River converged.
As the night fell, the surface of the Tengshi River began to freeze. The river water dried up, the flow rate almost stagnated, and the river became narrow. In this way, the deviant ghosts had a way to leave the Western Region through the Tengshi River and enter Hejian.
In fact, there were more than 200,000 corpses gathered there.
In the end, they were discovered by the Bran who had opened up the map. Danny led the Western Region's Volunteers to rush over and fought a not-so-great but very fierce Battle of the Tengshi River.
Without waiting for them to recover, the Bran sent news that there were corpses gathering around Calamity Bastion.
Calamity Bastion was located at the northernmost tip of the Western Region and was only separated from the Iron Islands by a hundred-kilometer-wide strait. The deviant ghosts could attack Calamity Bastion that had not yet fallen, or they could sneak into Hejian along the coastline. Regardless of the situation, it was a fact that the corpses were gathering on a large scale. Danny had to go there.
Therefore, after they cleaned up the battlefield at the Tengshi River, they did not rest and immediately broke camp. In the end, they went to the Tarbeck Hall a hundred kilometers away to spend the night.
"Kastme's Rain" involved two major families, one was the Tarbeck family and the other was the Reyes family. The two families joined forces to rebel against the Lannister. Tywin captured the Tarbeck Hall and killed the entire Tarbeck family.
The Kastme Castle of the Reyes family was similar to Casterly Rock. It was built in a mine and was easy to defend. Tywin poured the river into the mine and drowned hundreds of the Reyes family members.
At this time, one hundred and fifty sleigh buses surrounded the collapsed castle. The main hall of the castle was cleaned of debris on the ground and spider webs on the walls. The Dragon Queen's tent was set up inside.
In the tent, the usual dinner had already ended.
Well, every time it was dinner, the noble knights of the Volunteers would come to eat at the same table with the Dragon Queen. They did not necessarily eat well, but it was a Westeros tradition for the king and his subjects to eat together.
If Danny wasn't here, Tyrion would be the one to entertain the knights.
At this moment, dinner had just ended. The centaur maid was instructing the knight squires to clear the plates and clean up the place. The Dragon Queen and the dwarf sat on the other side, staring at the lit glass candles together.
"Your Majesty, please come back quickly. The people of the Royal Territory need you!" Old Crab said earnestly from the other end of the candle.
"The people of the Western Region need the Queen more. There are still millions of ghouls waiting for the Queen to clean up!" The dwarf laughed.
"Sigh. The royal nobles are the true roots of the Targaryens! Now, there were frequent reports of victories in the Western Region, where they could easily kill a hundred thousand or even two hundred thousand enemies. This was in stark contrast to the difficulties in other regions.
The nobles of the Royal Domain wrote letters one after another, expressing their willingness to form a Royal Domain Volunteer Regiment, and that they would wholeheartedly obey the Queen's command.
They are fearful of the increasingly frequent otherworldly assaults and are hoping for the Queen to come and suppress them. "The old crab said helplessly.
"The castle in the royal territory hasn't fallen yet, right?" Danny asked.
Without waiting for the old crab to speak, Tyrion said first, "Not a single one. The royal territory is very close to Harren Castle and Dragonstone Island. Reinforcements can arrive in two or three hours.
In fact, they don't need reinforcements at all.
Last time, when Staghorn Castle was besieged by thirty thousand ghouls, Sir Burkwell led eight hundred clan soldiers and held on for a day and a night. He killed more than ten thousand enemies and forced the ghouls to retreat without much loss. "
"That was a special case. Sir Burkwell's family happened to have two bishop level priests." The big crab shook his head and said with an amazed expression, "They saved up divine spell slots for more than a year. In just one day, they used more than two thousand divine spells. How terrifying!"
Generally speaking, there were three things that every noble family in the Westeros was well equipped with: Scholars and their matching crow's nest, Monks and their matching templars, and Godswood Forest.
Scholars, crow's nest, and Godswood Forest were things that almost every family had. Monks and templars rarely appeared in the Northern Region. In fact, only White Harbor and Mandalay believed in the Seven Gods.
Staghorn Castle also had a templar, and there was only an old monk surnamed Burkwell and an apprentice in the templar.
He was the granduncle of the current Earl Burkwell.
Because the second son did not have the right to inherit, the granduncle went to the King's Landing Cathedral to study when he was young.
After becoming a monk, he went home to preside over the business of the templar. Half a century passed in a flash.
Then Sir Burkwell's younger brother did not have the right to inherit, so he followed the granduncle to study the teachings of the Seven Gods. After more than ten years, he also became an apprentice monk (not registered in the church headquarters).
However, the two second sons of Burkwell had a special "root of wisdom" and were very devout. They became priests more than a year ago.
They belonged to the family's lineage and did not go to the Cathedral of Baylor to become archbishops. In fact, many regional archbishops did not go to King's Landing after becoming priests. Instead, there were bishops of King's Landing who were appointed by the Holy See to preside over affairs after becoming priests.
The two Burkwell monks stayed at home to study the "Seven Stars Bible" and did not have a reputation. Earl Burkwell knew that they had become priests, but he did not pay too much attention to it.
The two devout monks prayed in the family's templar every day and did not have many opportunities to use divine spells.
However, the Holy Mother Danny allowed the infinite accumulation of spell slots.
The two of them held back for more than a year, and each of them accumulated more than 20,000 spell slots!
Twenty thousand, they could be called human-shaped divine cannons.
One could imagine how much shock they brought to others when the deviant ghosts attacked the city.
Well, under the divine system of the Seven Gods Church, as long as the bronze held back for a long time, defeating the gold was not a dream.
That scene was almost as big as the shock to the Shaolin Temple and the entire Jianghu when the sweeping monk suddenly jumped out and overturned South Murong and North Qiao Feng and his father.
The defense of Antler Castle also made the world understand the huge role of monks in war for the first time.
The effect of [Sacred Healing] was not very good (because the priests did not use it in the right place), but for sword wounds, especially bleeding, [Sacred Healing] could be called a BUG, and wasn't this the most needed treatment in war?
"Since monks are so useful, let the church send monks to each castle!" Tyrion said.
"Those nobles certainly thought so, but the church did not agree." The old crab shook his head.
Danny said disapprovingly: "Think about the dawn warriors, even a fool would not divide the dawn warriors into hundreds and scatter them in each castle.
Antler Castle is a special case, the two monks have been accumulating spells without a chance to use them, so the two of them are equivalent to a team of hundreds of priests.
Just like after the dawn warriors were divided, one or two Iron Warriors would not be of much use other than boosting morale. Low level priests only have a dozen spell slots in a day, and do not have the ability to turn the tide of the battle.
Only when the priests are gathered together and form a large group of priests, together with the elite warriors' sons, can the effect be more powerful. For example, guarding King's Landing and holding back the deviant ghosts' main force in the south. "
At this point, Danny could not help but think of Erlu who had already become the king of King's Landing, and asked: "What is Stannis doing? He has finally fulfilled his long-cherished wish of many years, to take King's Landing and ascend to the Iron Throne.
Even if he is unable to defend the Seven Kingdoms, he should at least protect his own territory, right? "
Tyrion nodded and smiled: "I almost forgot about Stannis. Although the Red Keep was destroyed by You Lun, he has finally been crowned king, and the Iron Throne's fief is the king's responsibility to defend the fief. "
"Speaking of which, I have already pledged my loyalty to him, and as the lord, he should come to Casterly Rock's aid."
"Stannis' situation is a little complicated …" The old crab was hesitant.
"How complicated? Just tell me what he is doing now. "Tyrion said.
The old crab hesitated: "Half a month ago, when he saw the Iron Throne, he vomited blood and fainted on the spot.
After that, there were rumors that he was ambushed when he was chasing You Lun, and was heavily injured, and has been recuperating since then.
There were also rumors that he was not injured at all, and was just sitting in his room in a daze.
There were also rumors that he was hysterical, and kept saying things like 'Shireen', 'the highest and most holy authority of the King', 'I am the rightful king of the Seven Kingdoms', 'I will judge the Seven Kingdoms, and judge You Lun and Cersei'.
It is very scary, and it is said that he is on the verge of going crazy.
There are too many unconfirmed news, and he has not shown himself, so we do not know much about his situation. "
Danny obviously knew the story of the search for the Iron Throne, and hearing this, she said disapprovingly: "Isn't it just that the Iron Throne fell into a cesspool, what is there to be unable to accept?
It was also in a cesspool before!
To put it bluntly, You Lun and Cersei's buttocks are not as clean as a child's poop. "
"If Stannis heard this, he would go mad," the dwarf said with a grin.
"Maybe Stannis is really recuperating, and has not gone crazy. After the Red Keep was bombed, he went to pursue You Lun, and was indeed ambushed by the Dragonslayer crossbows.
I can confirm that Davos, who was following him, was pierced in the stomach, and if not for the many priests in King's Landing, he would not have survived. "The old crab said.
"Stannis is not even afraid of death, why would he be afraid of being injured? He does not need to recuperate at all, unless it is a heart wound. "Danny shook her head.
"Has the Iron Throne been moved back?" Tyrion asked curiously.
The old crab nodded. "The Red Heart Knight used a crowbar to pull the Iron Throne out of the cesspool, then stretched the rope, and three wyverns carried it back to the Red Keep."
The image of the Iron Throne appearing in Danny's mind, and when it was pulled out, juices flowed, colorful …
She shuddered, and quickly extinguished the thought. It was too disgusting.
"Stannis can still eat that kind of chair? What a good appetite. "She said in disgust.
"Sitting is sitting, just treat it as sitting on the toilet, there is no need to say 'eat', right?"
Tyrion and the old crab also had disgusted expressions.
"Sitting on the toilet?" Danny chuckled. "That is a good idea."
The dwarf seemed to be able to smell the smell coming from the Iron Throne during every court session.
"Didn't the Red Keep blow up a huge crater?" He changed to a "clean" topic.
"The outer city became a huge crater, and the towers in the inner castle near the crater collapsed, while Meg Tower and White Sword Tower were at the back, and were preserved."
"Has the gap in the city wall been repaired?" The dwarf asked again.
"It is being repaired, Davos is mobilizing the people of King's Landing to repair the city wall and clean up the burned city.
Renise Hills was the worst hit, and he plans to move the people to Visania Hills.
Between the corner of Powder Street and Sister Silence Street, a quarter of the residential area near King's Landing, which is the area of the flea nest, are all being pushed down. "
"What nonsense, if he has the energy, he might as well save the vassals." Tyrion said with a frown.
"No, he has no other choice. You know how complicated the environment of the flea nest is, there are many ghouls hiding there, and there is no way to clean them up. Recently, there have been sightings of the living dead in the dark alleys. "
