Game of Thrones: Battle Royale Game

But correspondingly, the difficult conditions in the mountainous areas make them easier to be bribed than the people in the plains, just as the tough Swiss regard the export of mercenaries as their main industry. Now that winter is approaching, Ian believes that as long as he keeps adding money, he is not afraid that the Finley tribe will not be willing to surrender.

"We've already tried it." The one who answered Ian was Unsullied instructor Lyxix, who had been promoted by Ian earlier to the commander of the first legion of the Astapor Slave Iron Legion.

As part of the promise that Celia made when winning over these instructors, Ian decided to give these Unsullied instructors who should have become great generals of Gith but unfortunately became slave traders a chance to realize their dreams - in itself. Among the talents that Ian has at this stage, they are also the ones with the highest tactical literacy. Reusing them can further deepen the trust between him and the Lord of Femor City.

"Three times," Lexix continued, "The Finley tribe is very satisfied with the conditions we offered, but there is one thing we have never been able to agree on. They are unwilling to surrender, let alone kneel down."

Another major characteristic of the mountain people, Ian shook his head: "We can allow them to become our allies on an equal footing. We will provide them with food and various living supplies for next winter, and they need to open all The land provides us with access and provides us with military support.”

Ian has no expectation of conquering the mountain people in such a period of time. The sky is high and the emperor is far away, but the mountains are high and there is no emperor. No feudal dynasty in the world has ever truly conquered the mountains. In most eras, even in the unified Celestial Dynasty, few emperors could receive a few taxes from the mountainous areas. For the emperor, if the mountain people did not rebel, they were already obedient, and there was no need to create additional problems.

Not to mention foreign attempts to conquer mountainous areas. Afghanistan, the graveyard of empires, is the best example.

"Will such a compromise have an adverse impact on our negotiations with other Lazarin tribes?" The speaker this time was Femor, the city lord of Astapor. As Ian's core ally, he also participated for this military meeting, "if they all ask for it"

"Don't be joking, my friend." Ian interrupted him with a smile, "We can't conquer the mountain people, how can we fight against the 'goatmen' on the plains? No, I never said that we would fight with They negotiated, and there were only two paths before them.

Either they voluntarily surrender and become our slaves, then according to the status of the surrenderers in their respective clans, they will directly obtain the status of high-level slaves, and the patriarchs and high priests of each clan will directly obtain the qualifications to become royal slaves and retain their property.

Either refuse to surrender, then our army will crush their clans, and all of them, regardless of gender, old or young, high or low, will become fourth-class slaves, and will be assigned to the higher-ranking slaves in their hostile clans to rule. "

After hearing what Ian said, all the participants in the room looked at each other, especially the few Astapor nobles who had successfully gained Ian's trust and were able to attend the meeting. They all prayed in their hearts, hoping that they would never offend this devil one day. .

Fortunately for them, through communication with the Westeros people who followed Ian and the others to Astapor, they learned a very important piece of information.

That is, although Earl Darry is extremely sinister and ruthless towards his enemies, he is always generous and sincere towards his own people.

The most important thing is that everyone who works under Lord Darry has now received rewards far beyond their expectations.

Now Queen Daenerys' captain of the Kingsguard, Kes, and the commander of the Unsullied, Rohr, were once just servants of Lord Darry; the commander of the Imperial Army, Dorian the Black Falcon, and the deputy commander, Bronn, were once just ordinary people. Mercenary; Lord Daeron Grafson had nothing when he left Westeros with Lord Darry. Now he is the Sea Lord of the Royal Council and is presiding over the construction of a large royal fleet.

Even Queen Daenerys herself, when she was in Pentos, was just a commodity that was conspired by her brother and a certain trade governor to be sold to the Horse King Drogo.

Now, who among these people is not extremely powerful?

The reason is simply because they received a promise from Earl Darry.

And now, Lord Darry has also given Astapor a promise.

Fermor and Lysix knew very well that whether they could obtain a glorious future all depended on this war.

"In addition," Ian thought for a while and added, "Slaver's Bay will no longer capture slaves from the Finley tribe. They can also send people to the three cities of Slaver's Bay to identify the tribe members who have become slaves. Once confirmed, these The slaves will be freed immediately. This condition, combined with the previous condition for the Finley tribe, is valid for all mountain tribes."

"Is such a condition too generous? What if Meereen and Yunkai have objections?" Fermor must know the Gith nobles of Slaver's Bay better than Ian and the others. It was a dream that the Great Masters of Meereen freed their slaves.

"It's easy to handle. If anyone has any objections, let them be the vanguard to capture the Kaisai Pass and hold it." Ian spread his hands, "As long as they can do it, I promise not to say anything."

Fermor chuckled twice, then turned his head and stopped talking.

"Then let's continue." Ian didn't hesitate and returned to the map. "How are the military expenditures promised by Yunkai and Meereen received?" He looked at Celia.

"The first batch of 150,000 of the 400,000 brilliant coins has been transported from Yunkai to Astapor, but they said that the part that Meereen needs to pay will still take time." Celia replied.

That part of Meereen does take time. The bleeding in Meereen this time is too great. Not only do they have to pay for the four iron legions of New Ghis, they also need to spend money to recruit mercenary groups and provide them with armor.

Ian could guess without thinking that there must be chaos inside Meereen now, and the great masters were all pushing each other over who gave more money and who paid less.

Human nature is like this. Even if the rebels attack the city, Chongzhen asks his wealthy ministers to donate money to raise military expenses. The ministers are still unwilling to donate, not to mention that the centaurs are still far away on the Dothraki sea. Now let the great lord of Meereen Did they come up with such a large amount of money?

It was a normal reaction to the situation in Meereen, but it was Ian who was surprised that Yunkai had come up with the money so quickly.

"What's going on with the Iron Legion?" Ian continued to ask.

"The four Iron Legions of New Ghis have completed their assembly, but their navy is not enough to transport so many soldiers at one time, so they plan to transport the army to Meereen in two times. They asked to join our army in Meereen."
