Chapter 276 Stalemate

Having defeated the Dothraki, Targaryen has clearly proven himself to be the second most powerful trade city-state.

Beyond the distant Volantis, and has the strength to challenge the big brother.

Dragons are the root of the Targaryen forces' confidence. Dragons can create many miracles, and at the same time, other forces cannot have them.

However, although revenge is not overnight, Viserys also needs to consider the price of turning against Braavos now.

His dragon may be difficult for Braavos to exert its full effect, and Braavos has strong military manufacturing capabilities, not a traditional nomadic tribe like the Dothraki.

They really have a lot of giant crossbows that can threaten dragons. If Bellerrain faces hundreds of giant crossbows pointing directly at the sky, even if the sight of this kind of thing can't be hit very crookedly, but it can't stand blind. The cat meets the dead mouse.

If fighting the Dothraki is a human-machine difficulty without any threat to the dragon, and facing the terrifying giant crossbow array in Braavos is probably a hell difficulty that requires top operation.

And Braavos didn't just make these preparations in order to fight the dragon.

Because the founders of Braavos were a group of slaves who escaped from Valyria, they were actually prepared to fight against the dragons from the very beginning of their establishment, so they were prepared for a rainy day.

The whole of Braavos is a stone city, linked by hundreds of archipelagos.

But there is not a single tree in the whole city, all are bare stone houses.

Connected to each other with stone bridges, perhaps only in the harbor are there densely packed wooden boats.

Therefore, Braavos can stand upright when facing the threat of the giant dragon, because it is difficult for the dragon's flame to ignite the city, and the threat will naturally be greatly reduced.

And now it's not just Essos that is in turmoil due to the rise of Targaryen.

Westeros is also facing the winter. Hundreds of thousands of savages are approaching the city. The coalition of nobles from the seven kingdoms will not give in, preventing the savages from crossing the Great Wall and fleeing to the south.

There have been several negotiations between the two sides but nothing has been achieved, and it seems that the war will eventually be used to solve the problem.

Now is the time when the Baratheon Dynasty and the Wildlings and the White Walkers are battling to lose their power, and Viserys is the perfect time to send troops to retake Westeros.

If you turn against Braavos now, you will probably miss this opportunity and give the Iron Throne a breather.

The night outside the window was heavy, and the crow made an unpleasant cry in the city.

Viserys sat quietly in the castle room by himself, with his fingers crossed, staring at the night outside the window without a word for a long time, thinking about the general direction of the future.

Regarding the next battle, there is actually nothing to think about.

Although the Dothraki 80,000 coalition army only lost 30,000, this is not the main battlefield. However, the loss of 30,000 people also liberated 20,000 Targaryen soldiers.

One and the other.

The balance of power between the two sides is no longer the unbalanced state it was in before, but has taken a big turn to the point where the Targaryen army has a dominant advantage.

The two armies of Pantos and Hero Fort showed a tendency to tie the corners, just enough to sandwich the remaining 50,000 Doslaks in the center, like a big net slowly opening.

Take a night’s rest tonight, and you can lead the army tomorrow. If the Dothraki’s news is not well-informed, you may be able to seize the opportunity to complete the finish.

These 50,000 Dosraki people don't even want to run away.

Then, I don't know how long has passed.

The next morning the thick fog slowly arrived.

at the same time.

Not far away in Pentos.

Jon Clinton got up early and was busy in his room, dealing with Pantos' military and government affairs.

Despite having commanded the Great War and having ample command and dispatch experience as the former Prime Minister of the kingdom, Jon Clinton still feels a little busy lately.

He is now equivalent to taking over the duties of the former prime minister of the new dynasty. Pantos has a lot of recent affairs, big and small, all of which are on his shoulders.

He needs to consider both defending the city and internal affairs, and he needs to pay more attention to the situation of material reserves.

Because now their majesty the king is not in the city, but rides out on a dragon.

The Dothraki army outside surrounded Pantos in such a way that it was almost impossible for a fly to fly in.

However, Viserys seemed to be fine, and it was time to get on the dragon and fly out for a spin.

You can even walk around the top of the Dothraki like patrolling the territory, scaring the three Kaodong to hide in XZ and hide in the tents of ordinary tribesmen.

They didn't dare to sleep in their big tent, for fear that when they fell asleep, a pillar of fire would fall from the sky and burn themselves.

Even the three Kao psychology in Pantos have already retreated, but they are too embarrassed to bring it up first.

Such a strong westward expedition, and then nothing was gained, so he fled back with his tail between his tails.

I am afraid that this will become the "shame of Kaa" in the future, and will be looked down upon by other colleagues, and even his own clan will gradually become detached.

The Dothraki admire warriors and despise cowards, and a timid khal is not qualified to ride the strongest of warhorses.

However, what the three Kao thought more about was that Viserys did not pay attention to them recently, but looked elsewhere for trouble.

the night before.

The 'pirates' who blocked the Gulf of Pantos were suddenly hit hard.

It took two days for the news to reach Pentos, and it was heard that more than a dozen ships were burned and destroyed by the dragon.

These 'pirates' suffered extremely heavy losses and were forced to give up blocking the bay of Pantos.

And everyone knows who these 'pirates' are.

It is understandable that Viserys went out to attack these navies who had dropped their flags. The other party suffered a big loss but could only swallow it.

Otherwise what to do?

Admit yourself to be a pirate?

But Viserys went out the first two nights and never came back.

Jon Clinton, however, knew the bottom line and knew that Viserys had flown to Herod Castle.

Since the defenders of Pantos couldn't go out of the city to fight and defeat the Dothraki, it was not the way to drag it, so he would go to solve the war on the other side first, and then bring the people from there over to cooperate with the inside and outside to break the siege of Pantos. .

And at this time.

Someone knocked on the door, then pushed open the door and walked in.

"grown ups."

"I pried open the mouths of the prisoners I caught two days ago."

Ramsay, with dark hair and a gloomy face, sat on the chair opposite Jon Clinton and spoke.
