Chapter 102: The Enemy at the Gate

Chapter 102: The Enemy at the Gate

Euron grinned and raised a finger, whispering: "My price is not high, a longship, a weapon that can control dragons only needs a ship, it's worth it."

"Even if you didn't say it clearly, I can guess that the weapon must be in the hands of that woman." Glazdan clapped his hands in annoyance and shouted: "I didn't expect that we all underestimated her. She pretended not to know Valyrian and concealed her true wealth. Otherwise, with her desire for the Unsullied, we would be able to trick her out of the dragon-controlling weapon."

Kraznys' face turned blue and red, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Send a letter to Kaiyuan immediately and let them-"

"What can they do?" Euron waved his hand to interrupt him, sneered: "Now that bitch has thirteen thousand Unsullied, can Kaiyuan's slave soldiers stop her?"

"There is no need for war. She certainly cannot afford the food and drink needed for a large army of nearly 15,000 people. What is the weapon we force her to use? Tell me quickly!"

Seeing that Euron was still nonchalant, Grazdan's eyes became dangerous and threatened: "Remember your identity and don't force us to do things that the good masters are very willing to do. If you are outside the city, if you are on the sea, if I catch you, I will definitely train you into the most obedient slave. Even if I ask you to lick me, you will be happy to do it."

If we are on the sea, if my Tranquility is still there, you eight fat pigs can come together, and I can easily cut off the thing between your crotches and sacrifice it to the God of Storms!

Euron had a vicious thought in his mind, but he still shook his head and said, "A long ship, I tell you everything. Similarly, giving me and my crew a place to live is the basis for our future cooperation.

As the good master said, when we are at sea, no one knows whether you will abide by the agreement. Without my own ship, I will never explore the ruins of Valyria again."

The eight good masters looked at each other and quickly made a tacit decision. Kraznys came forward and promised, "A new Ghis warship." There are roughly three types of ships at sea. The first type is like the Thaydurion that Dany took, a flat-bottomed, fat-bellied sea ship with a large cargo capacity and not easy to capsize in a storm.

The disadvantages and advantages are equally prominent. It is too large and completely relies on wind power to sail. The speed is slow and it is easy to break down without wind.

The second type is warships, most of which are long and narrow ships with two kinds of power: wind power and oars. The bow ram is specially reinforced. In boarding battles, it can "pierce" the opponent's ship like a blade, which not only kills the enemy ship but also forms a stable "springboard".

The armed longship is mainly used to seize sea control, because the wood required for building sea ships is extremely high, and the cost of the flagship armed longship is also extremely expensive.

After the "Battle of Red Cliffs" in the Game of Thrones version, Cersei spent 1 million gold dragons to rebuild the royal fleet, and only built more than ten armed longships.

However, the armed longship has a small hull and cannot carry too much cargo.

Euron robbed so many oriental merchant ships, but Dany did not find a piece of silk or a jar of spices on the Serenity. Obviously, he threw away those "cheap" things and could not put them down.

The third type is similar to the "Summer Sun" in the fleet of Blackbeard Grole, with sails, oars, and a huge cargo hold.

Rowing merchant ship.

It has a certain escort capability, but its speed is relatively slow, its impact is weak, and it cannot gain control of the sea.

At this time, the new Ghis warship promised by Kraznys is a standard armed longship, and it is also the ship that Euron wants most.

"Oh, the new Ghis armed clipper?" Euron became interested, leaning forward from the back of the chair, and asked curiously: "New ship or old ship? How many oars?"

"Three hundred oars, more than 10 years in service." The slave owner said.

"10 years?" Euron frowned. It is not that the wooden hull ship cannot be used for more than 10 years. The key lies in "service", which means that it has been fighting with pirates and has been injured countless times.

Maybe after the New Ghis Iron Legion was eliminated, it was sold to the Astapor people at a low price?

"That's fine." He nodded slowly and said: "That's a Dragon's Horn-"

  "Woo-"

The low and desolate horn sounded like water waves, and the ripples swept across the top garden of the pyramid and across the entire city of Astapor.

"Dragon's Horn?!" Euron stood up in shock and ran to the half-meter thick granite wall. He took a look outside the city gate and his face changed drastically. "Damn it, you bunch of rubbish Gis people, don't you have any sense of defense? Ten thousand troops are at the city gate, and no one has come to notify us?!"

The Great Pyramid of Grazdan is only separated from the city gate by a Pride Square, a distance of more than 200 meters. Standing on the top of the 100-meter-high tower, you can clearly see a large number of Unsullied with swords drawn outside the city.

  "Report!"

As soon as Euron finished speaking, he saw a Ghis guard wearing a yellow silk cloak climbing up the stairs panting, and said in a crying voice: "Good Lord, it's not good, the Queen of Westeros is leading the Unsullied to attack!"

"What?" The good Lord, who had not yet recovered from the change, was horrified and said in disbelief: "Is she crazy? Why would she do this?"

Kraznys staggered down from the high-backed wooden chair, and his gorgeous tokar robe immediately slipped off his shoulders. He only took a look down and collapsed to the ground like mud.

"This is impossible, this." He muttered absentmindedly, "Yesterday she also gave each of us a precious dragon bone scepter, how could she come to attack Astapor?"

Euron's heart moved, and he asked anxiously: "When did you send the gift?"

  "Before leaving."

"Shit, you bunch of idiots, that is a guest gift, which represents the end of the guest relationship!" Euron was furious. They didn't notice such an obvious hint?

You greedy slave owners have almost squeezed every gold dragon out of her. Only a fool would give gifts to express gratitude.

"She didn't attack immediately," Grazdan suddenly woke up, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, grabbed the collar of the guard who reported the news, and shouted at him like a roaring horse: "Is she trying to extort money for the journey home?"

"No!" The Ghis guard's black and red hair stood upright on his head and was in disarray. He howled with tears: "It's over, we are all finished. She doesn't want a single copper coin. She just came to kill all the slave owners."

As he said that, he also raised a roll of parchment.

The slave owner took it and took a look. The text was written in Valyrian, and the title was "Seven Great Hates".

Grazdan could barely understand the first few "hates" about the bloody cruelty of slavery, the violation of human ethics, and the violation of the teachings of the gods, but in the end, what the hell is "hindering the development of civilization" and "hindering social harmony"?

Euron also came over to take a look. He didn't understand what civilized development and social harmony meant, so he could only rub his nose and guess, "The Targaryen family converted to the Church of the Seven three hundred years ago. That bitch probably also believes in the Seven Gods. For the believers of the Seven Gods, 'seven' is the most auspicious number, so she had to make up seven charges."

  "Hiss, hiss--"

Suddenly, the good masters felt a darkness above their heads.

  "Bang!"

There was a muffled sound, and "snowflakes" fell from the sky.

"Dragon, it's her dragon." Euron looked up and saw a black dragon hovering more than 50 meters above his head, and small white notes were falling from the sky.

"Let's get into the pyramid quickly." Euron's scabby face seemed to be burning faintly, and he quickly rushed into the stone steps.

The eight good masters didn't react as quickly as him, and it was the first time they saw a real dragon in their lives. They couldn't help but look up at the sky, and they were all dazed.

Dany had been in a dragon dream state. In addition to distributing leaflets above the pyramid, she also wanted to investigate the enemy.

After all, in addition to the Unsullied, Aposta had thousands of city defense troops, and the good masters also raised some slave soldiers.

Seeing that the eight good masters were having a party with Euron in the garden on the top of the tower, and there was no crossbowman around, the big black immediately fell from the sky.

  "Boom--"

The surging dragon fire ignited the three good masters and the six servants behind them in just one go.

"Ah ah." As if waking up from a dream, the remaining five good masters rolled and crawled, crying and running towards the corridor.

  "Hiss--Boom--"

This time, Dahei identified the target and whistled over Grazdan's head, leaving a seven or eight meter long column of fire.

"Ah--" Grazdan's eyeballs and nose melted in the scarlet dragon flames, as if encountering a high temperature candle.

  "Hiss--"

Dahei circled and saw Kraznys and the other two good masters escape into the passage. He roared unwillingly and flew to the next pyramid.

There are 18 pyramids in the city, and 500 "Declarations of Freedom" are sprinkled on top of each pyramid: I am the mother of dragons, the hater of slavery, and the mother of freedom. I declare in the name of 13,000 Unsullied troops and three dragons that you are free, pick up the sword in your hand, and kill the slave owners around you. Remember, freedom can only be fought for by yourself, even if you shout "I want freedom, long live freedom".

In addition to the pyramids, Dany did not drop leaflets anywhere else.

The Unsullied can easily capture the city, but each pyramid itself is also a fortress.

There were very few slaves who could read, and it was estimated that few of them could understand the leaflets they picked up, but the slave owners would definitely understand them.

The leaflets were actually prepared for the Gis people. They would pass on Dany's message to the slaves, such as adding heavier chains to the slave warriors, and whipping the slaves to prevent them from rebelling.

Slaves are human beings, and they know how to read people's expressions and the slightest expressions of their masters, and know how to judge their emotions through those expressions. Those who don't understand would have been hung on the wooden platform in the center of the punishment square.

Every time the slaves noticed that the fear in their masters' hearts increased by one point, their own fear would decrease by one point, and eventually the fear disappeared, and they began to muster up courage.

Dany divided her troops into three groups, guarding the main gate in the north, the east gate near the Worm River, and the dock area in the west.

On the north wall, a bronze-helmeted Gis man suddenly appeared. Using his shield as a shield, he used a metal trumpet to shout to the motionless army below: "Unsullied, protect your master, protect your city, and kill that oath-breaking Westeros bitch!"

Five thousand Unsullied stood still like stone sculptures, with only the white-background black dragon flag held in the front row fluttering in the sea breeze.
