Chapter 438 Death of Duke Tully
"Father!"
And Edmure saw his father fall, and instantly felt like a thunderclap.
He stood there dumbfounded, and he couldn't even believe his eyes. He couldn't believe that his father, who was as majestic as a mountain, would fall down one day.
After that, the eyes of the heir of Riverrun became a little red, and tears rolled in his eyes. He drew his sword and roared, and he took the lead in killing him.
The fat Earl of Spring City, William Moulton, was not at the front. He wanted to shrink back, but for some reason, he encountered Edmure with red eyes. The other party roared and rushed forward, although William ·Morton himself is also capable of swordsmanship twice, but how can he compare with the young and vigorous Edmure?
clang clang-
The metal collided and made a sound, and after just three or two strokes, the Earl of Nuquan City was pierced by Edmure's sword. The bright point of the sword penetrated the armor and exposed from the back, and blood poured out and dyed the armor red.
William Murton originally joined the rebel camp in order to survive, but he did not expect that he would die in Riverrun. His eyes were unwilling, and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.
Then William Murton's body was kicked to the ground by Edmure, and he pulled out the long sword from him with a puff. Then Edmure, in a rage, strode forward with the blood-stained long sword. Go, once again slashed a rebel soldier head-on with a sword.
"kill!"
The screams of killing in Riverrun City were loud, and there were two sides in the fierce battle. The death of Duke Tully not only did not calm one side down or give in, but intensified the conflict even more. The rebels and the soldiers of the Tully family started fighting in the city. fierce fighting.
And this scream of killing alarmed Horst Tully, and naturally, it had already alarmed Robert Baratheon and his Kingsguards who were also recovering in the castle.
"Seven layers of hell, who can tell me what's going on outside?!"
Robert Baratheon lay on the hospital bed, his chest still bandaged, but he was able to sit up.
The arrow pierced through his chest and nearly killed him, but in the end, it was Robert who survived.
Now Robert was holding on to the head of the bed to get up and see what was going on outside, but was pressed down by his Kingsguard captain, Ser Barristan Selmy.
"Your Majesty, there are rebels attacking the city outside. It's too dangerous to go out now."
"I will protect Your Majesty's safety here."
The gray-haired old knight held the hilt in one hand with a serious expression on his face.
In this situation, you can almost use your toes to figure out what is going on outside.
The defeat of the coalition forces in the daytime has almost established the outcome of Riverrun City being breached. Seeing that the situation is over, the nobles in the city are naturally unwilling to coexist with Riverrun City, and they will inevitably engage in some moths at this time.
And because of the special city defense structure of River River City, it is also not easy to break through this heroic city from the inside, so the rebels want to attack the main castle first, capture Duke Tully and King Robert alive, and then use them as hostages Ask the Tullys to give up their resistance and sacrifice Riverrun.
At this moment, the cries of Duke Tully's death suddenly came from the fierce fighting under the castle.
"what?"
Hearing the news of Horst Tully's death, the expressions of everyone in the room changed slightly, except for the Kingsguard Ser Malin Tran, who was sitting on the chair on the other side.
Malin Tran's eyes flickered slightly, and he peeked at the topless king and his captain, Barristan Selmy, and Sir Mandon Moore was standing by the door and was guarding the door, beware. The rebels came in from outside.
Then King Robert asked to go out and have a look again, but was rejected by the captain of the Kingsguard. The two argued for a few words. In the end, Robert could not convince the stubborn and stubborn old man, and sat back down angrily. to bed.
Robert could not go out himself, but ordered Sir Mandon Moore, who was guarding the gate, to go out and see what was going on? Did Duke Tully really encounter any accident?
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Ser Mandon Moore, who was wearing a white cloak, also looked serious, nodded slightly, pushed the door and walked out. Only King Robert, Barristan, and Marin Tran were left in the room.
However, the three people in the room waited for a moment, and did not wait for Sir Mandon Moore to return, but heard his screams.
"Stop! What are you doing!"
Ser Mandon Moore's voice was quick, startled and angry, and then there was the sound of swords clashing.
clang clang-
Ser Mandon Moore appeared to have killed both of them, but then he let out a scream.
"what--"
There was a sudden sound of fierce fighting and the sound of footsteps spiraling up the stairs.
bang bang bang.
"Quick! Quick!"
"Catch Robert Baratheon alive!"
"Catch the fake king alive!"
It turned out that the rebels, under the command of Genos, had no way to attack the main castle of Riverrun, and then the cunning Genos dispatched a few good men to climb up the wall with ropes from the other side of the castle.
The rebels opened a passage from the inside of the castle, and then some of the rebels poured into the castle, and the main battlefield of the two sides was transferred from outside the castle to here.
There were quite a few rebels holding torches high and taking a step forward along the steps to the upper part of the castle. They kicked open Duke Tully's room, but the old duke with the arrow in his chest was already dead at this moment, completely dead. Even the body has gradually lost its temperature.
Then the rebels cut off Duke Tully's head, grabbed the hair and held it high in their hands, passed them to each other like throwing a ball, and finally picked it up on the tip of the gun.
"Horst Tully is dead!"
Not far from Duke Tully's room, King Robert's bedroom was naturally besieged by a large number of rebels.
But the captain of the Kingsguard, Ser Barristan Selmy, the 'Fearless', with a long sword in hand, stood in front of the door and fought hard, with multiple wounds on his body, but he still fought to the death and fought off the rebels instead. Several times of siege, like a god of war.
After all, the entrance to the bedroom is so small, and the advantage of the number of people is compressed to a very small range. If you can't pass the level of the captain of the Kingsguard, no one can hurt King Robert Baratheon.
"Who can kill me!"
Barristan Selmi's gray hair and beard were stained with blood, and the white robe on his body was also stained with blood, holding a long sword and blocking the gate.
As a legendary knight famous all over the world, he was so shocked that the rebel soldiers were a little cowardly and dare not move forward.
