Chapter 1089 Launch
Tristan gave his brother an idea, suggesting that while his nephew Heros was not in control of the situation, he should call on more Dornish nobles loyal to the Martell family to launch a coup d'etat to regain the power that should belong to him.
Even Tristan suggested that Quentyn might as well stop now.
However, this suggestion was so cruel that it was difficult for Quentin to accept it from a psychological and emotional level for a while. In addition, Quentin's character was cautious, so he did not agree for the time being.
But Quentin thought about the other solutions Tristan had proposed, and there was no other better idea right now.
Although he didn't want to tear his face off with his nephew, it was the other party who did it first, so he couldn't take it into consideration, he could only grit his teeth and agreed.
The brothers Quentin Martell and Tristan Martell, the princes of Dorne, were conspiring to rebel, and they began to secretly gather trusted people to contact other Dornish nobles.
It is a pity, however, that most of the nobles of Dorne politely declined after receiving requests from Quentyn and the Tristan brothers.
Because after the establishment of the empire, after the rebellion of the Fowler family in Tianji City and a series of adjustments, the ambitions and rebelliousness of the Dornish nobles have been relatively smoothed out.
What's more, this matter originally originated from Prince Doran's own order, and Prince Doran was not coerced, nor did they violate their oath, so they were unwilling to get involved.
However, there are also some Dornish nationalists who believe that Dorne should be ruled by Dornish people.
Although His Royal Highness Heros has some Dornish blood, he is still a Valyrian through and through. The royal family reached out to Dorne. This is a transgressive behavior. At the beginning, His Majesty the Emperor promised Dorne to maintain a detached status. .
So people with these ideas and some of Quentin Martell's friends were gathered together to secretly prepare for a coup d'état.
The people they have to deal with are not just Helos alone, but also guard against his dragon and the people who were bought by Helos.
For example, Obaya Sand, the elder sister of the Sand Snake Sisters, who is currently the garrison commander of Sunspear, leads a heavy army to guard the triple gate of Sunspear.
This is the key part of Sunspear City. Unlike the curved wall, the complex and winding curved wall will only be attacked when the foreign enemy is attacking.
The triple gate provides an easy access to the inner city, allowing visitors to pass directly through the triple curved wall to reach the Palazzo Vecchio without having to walk a few miles around the labyrinthine city.
The Old Palace is where Helos is staying today. This is an ancient palace full of the characteristics of the Loina people. The well-known Spear Tower and the Sun Tower stand in the Old Palace.
After Nymeria and her people landed in Dorne and married Morse Martell, the spear tower and the tower of the sun began to be built, representing the combination of Martell's spear and the Roy taking the sun.
In addition to the two towers, the Old Palace contains at least one banquet hall, as well as a study for the Prince of Dorne, in which His Royal Highness Prince Heros Targaryen is now resting.
The chief steward of the Old Palace was Elia Sand, the eldest of the four daughters of Prince Oberyn and his mistress, Ellaria.
She loves horses and jousting, and is good at spearing, and Elia is named after her aunt, Elia Martell, Helos' grandmother.
The Sand Snake sisters used to stay in King's Landing regularly, and even the youngest Sand Snake sister, Rory Sand, was Heros' childhood playmate, and their father remained loyal to Heros.
Therefore, the Sand Snake Sisters were one of the first people to be bought by Helos.
The plan they made was to cooperate with the inside and the outside, to attack the triple gate of Sunspear City from the outside unexpectedly, and the inside of the old palace bought the inside to catch Helos.
This would prevent the dragons of Heros from rushing to rescue them, and would also force Obaya Sand, the commander of the garrison of Sunspear, to take a knee.
Quentin and Tristan thought their plan was perfect.
Then, after contacting many Dornish nobles who were willing to participate, a coup d'état was suddenly launched in the early hours of one day.
Quentyn and Tristan have lived in Sunspear for so many years as princes of Dorne, and they are naturally very familiar with the people and terrain here.
"who?"
"It's me, open the door!"
They first used fraud to open the first gate of the three gates. The soldiers of Sunspear City had no doubts about him, and when they saw the prince returning from hunting, they opened the gate and let them enter the city.
However, Quentin and Tristan looked at each other at this moment and suddenly ordered to do something.
"Don't be merciless!"
"kill!"
"Take the city gate!"
And the Dornish noble soldiers who followed the two Martell brothers already knew what they were going to do for a long time. They tore their faces suddenly, pulled out the machetes at their waists and rushed up.
On the other side, the soldiers of Sunspear City were caught off guard by the two princes of Dorne, and they were chopped to the ground one after another, while the remaining soldiers also reacted and started to counterattack with their round shields and spears in their hands.
However, it was still too late, after all, Quentin and Tristan came prepared, and they also caught their opponents by surprise.
Therefore, the first gate of the triple gate was quickly taken down, and then Quentyn and Trisdan continued to lead the troops to attack the second gate of Sunspear City without stopping.
But this time it wasn't so easy for them, because the soldiers inside were already prepared.
bang bang bang-
The walls of Sunspear were tall and strong, and arrows poured down from the top of the city, preventing the rebels from attacking the city, and the attack of the Martell brothers Quentyn and Tristan was hindered.
On the other side, Quentin and Tristan suddenly launched a coup d'état, and the news really quickly spread to the Old Palace.
Heros woke up from his sleep and received the news, and then, as Quentin had expected, he left the heavily guarded bedroom belonging to Prince Dorne and set off for the Sun Tower.
The Tower of the Sun is the main fortress of the Old Palace, which is very strong and easy to defend and difficult to attack.
It has golden vaults and leaded glass, and below it is the Throne Room, a circular room with thick windows and stained glass, and a floor of pale marble.
There are two almost identical seats on the high platform in the throne room of the Sun Tower. One of the seats has the golden gun logo of the Martell family on the back, and the other has the sundial pattern of Royna on the back.
Helos set off for the Sun Tower to discuss countermeasures, but Quentin and Tristan, who had previously bought in, suddenly launched an attack when the guard was the most relaxed on the road.
"Go! Be careful not to hurt him!"
"Be sure to catch them alive!"
