Chapter 483 Dorne Army
In the capitals of the Seven Kingdoms, the king's wedding is being celebrated, and it is very lively. People seem to have forgotten the war for a short time and enjoy the precious time of peace.
In other parts of Westeros, although the large-scale war has ended, the other four corners of the West, the Valley, the Reach, and the Stormlands surround the occupied Sanhe area and the royal capital, but the two sides are at peace with each other. Nothing, tacit recuperation.
However, the great war did not take place, but the skirmishes did not end.
"The cavalry is back!"
"The cavalry is back!"
There were the shouts of guards from the camp, and then the heavy wooden door made a difficult sound and opened to both sides, and a group of rangers wearing light armor and sandy yellow cloaks returned from the outside world.
"Call-"
"Call-"
The headed cavalry was stained with blood, with a red and black coat of arms and a golden hand on the chest, which was the symbol of the Elion family in the city of divine grace in Dorne.
The cavalry took off his helmet, revealing a face that had been through vicissitudes of life, then turned over and dismounted and handed the helmet and reins to a squire beside him.
"Father."
And behind him, another Dorne Ranger in armor also jumped off the horse, took off his helmet to reveal a young and immature cheek, and followed behind him.
"Damon."
The middle-aged jazz frowned slightly when he saw his illegitimate son following behind him ignorantly.
"I'm going to see Lord Ellenwood, so don't follow me."
Then he saw that the warhorse he had been led away by his servants was covered in blood, and said.
This horse was his cherished treasure, like a pure white satin, and he couldn't bear it to be covered in mud and stench in the future.
"It just so happens that my warhorse is a little dirty. Go and brush him."
The armor on the middle-aged man made a sound, and the figure walked into the distance, ignoring the bastard who was standing blankly behind him.
Although the status of illegitimate children in Dorne has been slightly improved and received some acceptance, they still have no social status.
And, take your own illegitimate son to see his powerful father-in-law?
Ser Roger Arrion of Divine Grace wouldn't have done such a thing if it wasn't for his brains.
Since Viserys fought off the White Walkers and war broke out between the Twins and the Allied forces, Dorne's side has been mobilizing troops.
Although the news came back by surprise, I didn't expect to repel the White Walkers so quickly, but still cooperated with the Targaryen army to fight.
The Dornish army came upon the city, holding back the Baratheon and Tyrell armies, preventing them from marching north to answer King Robert's call to support the besieged King's Landing and repel the Targaryens' army.
Now the commander of the Dorne army is Lord Anders Yronwood, who is called the guardian of the stone road and the nobleman of blood in Dorne. The most powerful family in Dorne other than the Martell family, Prince Doran's Right arm.
He was once assigned by Prince Doran to lead a Dornish army in response to King Robert's call as a means of delaying the army, and went north to join the coalition forces to go to the Great Wall to stop the wild and the White Walkers.
However, Lord Anders Yronwood lost a foot in the war against the White Walkers and fell down. Although he was rescued by Dorne soldiers desperately, the wound was eroded to save his life. In order to save his life, the bachelor used heat The knife method cut off his injured left foot and has since become a maim.
After that war, Anders Yronwood led the remnants of Dorne's defeated army and returned to Dorne.
Finally, after a long journey from the north to the end of the south in Westeros, the Dornish army finally returned to their homeland, bringing back the true news of the White Walkers to Prince Doran.
Anders told Prince Doran that there were terrible demons at the end of the world that the Dornish people might never go to, and they were carrying death and cold, trying to destroy the whole world.
If no one can stop each other, the world may be destroyed.
Prince Doran was still a little skeptical at the time, asking his cronies what the legendary White Walkers were like?
Yet Anders told him the White Walkers weren't legendary, but he had seen them with his own eyes, and if the prince wanted to ask what they looked like? How fast do you have? How much power?
Then Anders could only point to his lost left foot, as well as the soldiers who survived Dorne, many of them lost their minds, and even committed suicide on the way back, and then told Prince Doran that they Just like 'death', nothing else.
At this moment, in the silent Dorne army commander's tent, Anders Yronwood sat behind the sand table and quietly stared at the situation in front of him.
"Father."
Then Roger Elion opened the curtain and walked in. Roger's father-in-law was the 'Guardian of the Stone Road' Earl Anders Yronwood who had lost a foot, and is now the commander of the army of Dorne.
He married Anders' daughter, Ians Yronwood, with whom they had two sons.
"Well, I'm back."
When his son-in-law returned from outside the camp, Anders didn't even raise his head. He was still staring at the sand table in front of him, as if he was looking for a way to break through the obstacles.
Although the Dorne army was aggressive, the attack was actually not very smooth.
After the troops left the Prince's Pass, they faced the obstruction of Nightsong City. It seemed that the frontier land had already been prepared for the attack of Dorne. After all, this place was historically a battleground for the military, and it was extremely sensitive.
The frontier commander, Earl of Nightsong City, Bryce Cullen, summoned many nobles, large and small, to assist in the battle, as well as troops from House Tyrell and House Baratheon.
The main armies of the two sides started a long tug of war here, and Dorne's cavalry units were sent out, constantly harassing the reinforcements in Stormland and Reach, hijacking and cutting off their supply lines.
It even went deep into the fertile river bay for a burst of burning and looting, and I don't know how many villages were burned down.
This behavior completely angered the Rose of Highgarden, and the Duke of Mace borrowed his uncle from his own vassal, House Hightower in Oldtown, and Ser Maureen Tyrell, commander-in-chief of the Oldtown garrison, led the troops to come. support.
But here comes the good news.
"We fought off the Tyrell reinforcements, father."
Roger Aerion said, they set up an ambush on the only way for the reinforcements to pass, caught the Tyrell family by surprise, and temporarily repelled them.
"And there is another unexpected gain, which is to catch this little fat man."
Then Ser Aerion clapped his hands, and a shivering little fat man with a green-backed red-clothed walking hunter crest on his chest was pushed in.
Dorne's commander, Earl Anderson Yronwood's eyes suddenly fell on the coat of arms on his chest, and then he raised his head and said in a calm voice.
"Boy, introduce yourself."
