Game of Thrones: Battle Royale Game

"Why did you come to see me? Lord Earl." Butler Mills was stopped by Ian on the gravel path, so he asked. His attitude was very respectful, because he knew that the young man in front of him was the key training target of Governor Illyrio.

"Sorry, Mr. Mills," Ian apologized, "I have something I want to know, but I couldn't find Hazru (the big rat) at the moment, so I had to come and ask you." He paused. , "By the way, are you taking a walk? We can go together." After saying that, Ian made a gesture of invitation.

Mills nodded and took steps again, with Ian following beside him.

"Hazru is not in this house now, he is very busy. Pantos is brewing a storm," Mills said, and asked proactively, "Did you encounter any trouble when you wanted to find him?"

"That's not true," Ian shook his head. "Actually, what I care about is this storm. Isn't this the life and death battle between Prince Hazan and Suda Tetrus that will begin the next day? I always feel a little uneasy. , a life and death battle. It shouldn’t develop into a civil war in the end, right?”

"To tell you the truth, there are already signs of this," Butler Mills nodded. "According to reports from our spies, the private soldiers of the Hauket family and the Tetrus family in nearby villages and towns have reported to Pan Toss set out and expected that everyone would be in the city before tomorrow night. They didn't trust each other and wanted to prevent each other from turning their backs on each other.

Among them, Governor Tetrus is the worst offender, because he has many sons, and he can afford to lose. But he knows that Hazan is the core figure of the Braavos Party, and Hazan cannot afford to lose.

Governor Guerrero Tetrus has publicly stated that if anyone intends to forcibly disrupt the game to save Hazan's life after Hazan and his team are at a disadvantage, he will take action. Hazan and the others were forced to respond by gathering troops. "

“However,” Steward Mills changed the topic, “In fact, both governors also secretly expressed to His Excellency Illyrio and the old governor Lotalus that they did not want to go to war.

In order to avoid possible conflicts, Governor Illyrio has also agreed to exchange the mercenary team commanded by his officers responsible for the defense of the southern city with the mercenaries of Governor Guerrero Tetrus in the DC area. This would separate his troops from Prince Hazan's mercenaries. "

"Are there no mercenary teams stationed in the East, South, and North XC areas?"

"Our new mercenaries are to defend the Dothraki. They are deployed on three walls of the city, and the XC area is close to the sea." After speaking, Butler Mills laughed, "Don't worry, even if the civil war breaks out , you will not be affected in any way even if you live in this house. In fact, I can even guarantee you that our entire XC area will not be affected."

"Why?"

"The XC area is the traditional sphere of influence of our Chamber of Commerce. Our Chamber of Commerce has 800 long-term trained Chamber of Commerce guards in the XC area, and in the port, we can mobilize 600 to 1,000 sailors from resting ships at any time. Or call sailors.

Coupled with the Governor's 500 Unsullied in various mansions and the guards in the mansions of several of the Governor's allies, no matter which side we favor, we are doomed to the destruction of the other side. This is the neutral capital of Lord Illyrio. .No one dares to enter the XC area and risk our irritation. "Mills was just stating a fact, but it sounded really domineering.

"But the problem is," Ian laughed sarcastically, "I have agreed to Prince Hazan's invitation and will go to the Prince's Palace to watch the game."

"You can also rest assured about this, because during the competition, the defense outside the Prince's Palace will be responsible for the first standard guard of the old governor of Rotalus. There are 800 of them, and they are all real elites.

The First Banner Guard will control all the streets near the Prince's Palace. This is the unanimous request of Prince Hazan and Governor Tetrus. No troops from the Volantis Party or the Braavos Party will be allowed. Close to the Prince's Palace.

As for the 200 guards in the prince's palace. You are a friend of Prince Hazan, so it is Sudar Tetrus and the others who should worry about something happening, right? "

"Is Governor Rotalus reliable? Is it possible that he was bribed by the Tetrus family?" Of course, Ian could not say that he was bribed by Hazan. "After all, you said before that he stood on the side of the Governor's Council. The Volantis Party supports war against the Braavos Party."

"I would like to vouch for the honor of Governor Rotalus, Ian. He will never allow anyone to destroy the tradition and order of Pentos, let alone be complicit in it."

An Eddard Stark-type character? Ian finally had a rough idea, but he didn't rule out the possibility that something was wrong with him.

"Thank you for clarifying my doubts. This reassures me a lot." After Ian finished asking the questions, he thanked him and said, "If there is nothing else, please allow me to leave."

"You can do it yourself." Butler Mills did not hold back and watched Ian leave.

After returning to his residence, Ian first asked Rohr to find Hazru, the 'Big Mouse', and asked him to bring Hazru's spies who were responsible for investigating the Red Temple and the Gini Taime incident, as well as the spies belonging to Illyrio in the Red Temple. The priestess of his subordinates called over, and then used the shape-changing technique to enter the body of the falcon, and flew into the sky in the night.

Ian was not flying high, barely over a hundred meters. Even though it was at night, he could still see everything on the ground clearly with the help of the falcon's visual cells, which were far better than humans.

He has just preliminary verified his guess, and now he needs to conduct a reconnaissance of the entire Pentos to further verify his guess from an overall perspective.

After circling around Pantos, Ian investigated the newly added mercenary camps located in the north, east, and south. At least from tonight's perspective, everything was business as usual.

Then there are the residences of the three governors Hauket, Tetrus, and Mogan, as well as Prince Hazan. Their guards and private soldiers have already entered the city quite a bit.

The most elite among them were the 200 heavy cavalry under Guerrero Tetrus. The arrival of these people filled the stables of Governor Tetrus's residence - each of them had three horses, of which 100 horses were used for combat. That one is a large Andalus war horse, equipped with horse armor.

Ian could see from the sentries standing guard that their equipment was all standard scale armor, open-face helmets, long swords, morning star hammers and kite-shaped shields.

Although the urban terrain is not suitable for cavalry combat, with this equipment, infantry combat is not much different.

These people can indeed serve as the basis for Governor Tetrus to demand that Hazan not cheat in the contest.

The private soldiers of Hazan's ally Governor Hauket were not much better - at least in street fighting. His men were all infantry, but they were also well-equipped.

If a war breaks out, these private soldiers, the mercenaries under their jurisdiction who were recruited to deal with the Dothraki, and the city guards they originally controlled will be the main force of the war.

Later, Ian returned to the XC District. He investigated the headquarters of the Illyrio Chamber of Commerce, the Red Temple on the top of the mountain, the port, and the Liberty Street not far from the port, which is located at the junction of the XC District and the South City District and was nicknamed the 'Mercenary'. Guild's Joma Inn.
