Game of Thrones: Battle Royale Game

The commander-in-chief of New Ghis, Ereth Zo Emde, stood on the high hill on the right wing of the army, observing Ian's army.

Different from the habit of the generals of the Great Celestial Dynasty sitting in charge of the central army, in most cases, Western commanders and famous generals like to personally command the most elite and punching wing of the army.

"Why did you call me here at this time? Why haven't you started attacking yet?" Grazdan Zo Pal, the commander of Meereen's city defense army, came to General Eres and dismounted. "Lord Darry's trebuchet has already been launched. They had already launched an attack. It took them less than an hour to destroy all the trebuchets on the southern wall of Meereen, and also opened a large gap in the southwest corner of the wall.

The old brick walls of Meereen were unable to withstand the boulders thrown by the enemy. The trebuchets used by Lord Darry's army could hurl farther than any trebuchet I had ever seen, and farther than any trebuchet I had ever seen. All kinds of trebuchets are very powerful. If given time, I doubt he could bring down the city, and if we can't defeat them here, he'll break into Meereen with ease! "

"Earl Darry was not fooled." Different from Grazdan Zo Pal's anxiety, General Eres just pointed into the distance unhurriedly, "He saw through my deployment and sent the most elite Unsullied .The Unsullied, who had all been equipped with breastplates, were deployed on his left flank, while the most useless Yunkishmen were deployed on the center and right flank."

"My Iron Legion cannot defeat the enemy Unsullied quickly. Can you Meereenese defeat Yunkai's army quickly?" Eres asked with a smile.

"This" Grazdan Zor Palka is a little embarrassed. Although Aereth described the Yunkai people as useless, how good can Meereen's army be?

"Can't, right? You and Yunkai are both the same."

At this time, Grazdan Zo Palka's embarrassment turned into shock. Everyone knew the quality of Meereen's army, but such a straightforward and unrelenting ridicule should not be done by an ally. things that come out.

"If we cannot quickly gain an advantage on either wing," Eres raised his hand again and pointed at the Ian Army cavalry in front, "they will easily destroy us."

"But." Seeing Eres say such depressing words, Grazdan Zo Pal quickly defended, "But their frontal width is less than two-thirds of ours. We can directly attack their entire left wing. Complete the outflank."

"In this way, we have completely lost our depth. Count Darry only needs to use his cavalry to smash open any of our square formations from the back, and his central army can attack from this gap and cut our army in two. .”

"Are we going back to the city?" Grazdan Zo Pal suddenly panicked. General Aereth Zo Emud of New Ghis was fighting against the Qarthians and their Eastern mercenaries. Grazdan, the contemporary top general of the Gith people who has served for decades, has no doubts about his judgment, "Perhaps we can build a defense line based on pyramids. Meereen is full of pyramids, and each one is a fortress. If the enemy If the siege equipment cannot be transported into the city, maybe"

"When the city wall is breached," Eres interrupted Grazdan Zo Pal, "as long as Lord Darry promises not to harm their lives, half of the great lords will surrender immediately, and if he promises not to plunder If they lose their property, the other half will surrender soon after.”

"Those unreliable things!" Grazdan Zo Pal knew very well that those people would do this. "Then we can't return to the city! This battle must be fought!"

"Is it necessary to fight?" General Eres asked with a smile.

"Ian Darry is coming for us! Don't you understand? Since we can't return to the city, we must fight him here." Grazdan Zo Pal roared.

"Are they coming for us?" Eres shook his head, "Actually, I have discussed this matter with Holy Lord Hizdahr before, and we came up with two solutions in total."

"Have you thought of a solution?" Grazdan Zo Pal breathed a sigh of relief, "What are you going to do?"

"The first way is to defeat Lord Darry head-on. If he successfully falls into my trap before the battle, I will try to fight him. But now, I think we have no chance of winning, so I decided to take the second method."

"What's the second way?"

"I'll lend you your head."

As soon as General Eres finished speaking, a trail of blood appeared on the tent behind Grazdan Zo Pal.

Later that day, the Pyramid of the Parr family had been completely emptied, and the pyramid, along with the accumulated wealth, slaves, and industry of the entire Parr family, were presented to Ian as an apology from Meereen.

All the men of the Parr family were executed, and all the women were made slaves.

In addition, the Great Lord's Council of Meereen raised another sum of 100,000 gold coins to compensate Ian.

In return, Ian forgave Meereen's betrayal, agreed to continue the alliance, and did not allow the army to enter the city.

This made all the great masters of Meereen feel relieved after the disaster.

Eventually, both Meereen and New Gith handed over high command to Ian, given the good standing he had gained with the nobles of Gith in Astapor and Yunkai.

In return, Ian appointed Eres Zo Emde, the general of New Gis, as the chief deputy commander of the coalition, and even NPC Rohr was ranked behind him.

After issuing two orders in succession, Slaver Bay purchased unlimited grain from the world at twice the normal price and recruited unlimited mercenaries from the world at twice the normal price, Ian officially began the work of reorganizing the coalition forces.

Ian first gave the New Gith Legion a new command number. Out of respect, he did not let them use the same set of numbers as his slave Iron Legion, but prepared an 'honorary' Iron Legion number for them separately that started with four clangs.

The longer the combination password is, the more inconvenient it is to command, but it doesn't matter. In Ian's plan, the Iron Legion of New Gith will be used entirely for regular troops instead of surprise troops. As we all know, troops resisting the line rarely accept orders. .

Then, Ian integrated all the mercenary infantry in Yunkai and Meereen together, forming the First Mercenary Regiment of about 3,000 people.

This act of disrupting the original establishment of the mercenaries naturally attracted strong resistance from the mercenary captain and the mercenaries, but this resistance soon collapsed with Ian's simple increase of money.

As for the two thousand mercenary cavalry, Ian has sent the leader of the Stormcrows, Puranda Na Gison, with 500 of his men to Hersi in the Lazar area. When he arrives, Ian will use the Peregrine Falcon to convey to him Further instructions.

Ian assigned the other 1,500 cavalry from the other three mercenary regiments to the Guards Cavalry and personally organized them.

In the impact formation of each cavalry group, the mercenary cavalry positions were deployed in the middle of the first row. Their edges and rear were composed of Dothraki guard cavalry.

A cavalry charge is a pure contest of courage. A large number of cavalry research reports or tactical training manuals show that the cavalry on the far side or in the last row during the charge are most likely to be intimidated first and then break away from the charging formation.

The cavalry in the front row and in the middle have no chance even if they want to give in. As long as the cavalry behind them does not give in, they will be quickly hit by the cavalry behind them as long as they slow down. There are people on the side who cannot turn, so they The only option is to bite the bullet and rush towards the enemy formation.

For these unreliable mercenaries, this method can effectively improve their impact efficiency.

As for the armies of Yunkai and Meereen, Ian chose to reorganize them after scattering them all.

Among them, Ian selected 7,000 barely qualified crossbowmen through the assessment competition, gave them the designation of the first regiment, and then sent them to the newly built camp for training.

The other slave soldiers and conscripts were all newly formed into super spearmen, designated as the Second Reorganized Legion. In the following time, they also need to undergo a round of training to obtain the most basic combat effectiveness.

For the two reorganized legions, Ian transferred a large number of officers from the reserve officers who originally belonged to the slave iron legion to manage them. Yes, they were those who failed the listening test, but their military quality was not bad.

Half of these people are the nobles of Astapor, and the other half are from the slave class. If it were not for the shortage of manpower, Ian would prefer that they all be slaves. This would set a good example for the reorganized legions of Yunkai and Meereen. effect.

The reorganization work took Ian almost a week. After all units had entered the new camp, Ian found some time and decided to conduct an inspection of the newly reorganized armies in Yunkai and Meereen.

For these rabble, Ian's basic usage idea is unconventional. He does not plan to deploy them on the dangerous periphery and use them as cannon fodder. On the contrary, he plans to deploy them all in the safest location.

If in the end the centaurs did not go through the Skarhazaban Valley, but attacked Meereen City directly from the north, the field formation chosen by Ian could basically be determined to be eight formations.

As for these simply trained super spearmen, Ian chose to deploy them at the location of the former central army.

This position will not be attacked on the flanks and rear. They only need to raise the super long guns in their hands. With their depth of more than 10 rows, the horsemen's cavalry will have almost no possibility of breaking through from the front.

Without suffering a devastating direct blow, even the troops with the lowest morale cannot collapse before the elites on both sides collapse.

Behind these people, Ian's central army deployed all crossbowmen, who were responsible for long-range attacks on the centaurs coming from any direction.

The front left, front right, rear left, and rear right formations are the four formations that are most easily outflanked and attacked at diagonal angles. Ian’s plan is to place the elite Unsullied and the New Gith Iron Legion, while other positions will deploy medium-strength formations. Slave Iron Legion.

This is a choice that can easily cause the elite troops to suffer huge casualties, but the 'gamble' component is very low, because the Iron Legion of the Unsullied and New Gith can withstand huge casualties. As long as their formation does not collapse, victory is only a matter of time. question.

And if the inferior legions are placed in these locations and let them act as cannon fodder and the centaurs to consume each other, if they win, it will indeed reduce the losses of the elite. But once a certain period breaks down, it can easily bring down the whole thing.

"We are here, Commander-in-Chief." Grazdan Zo Erlands of Yunkai has been by Ian's side since he swore allegiance to Ian and was successfully promoted to a high noble. The tokar robe with gold tassels is so eye-catching that people passing by might think it is Ian's attendant.

After hearing this, Ian stopped thinking, got off the carriage, walked into the newly built temporary school ground, and was escorted by a group of guards to the wooden platform in the center of the school ground.

Below the high platform, 14,000 newly reorganized troops were gathered early, waiting for the inspection of the leader Ian.

And their state is what a slave army that has never fought in a war should be like - half dead.

Ian can see fear in their eyes, and they are afraid of themselves. This is good news, but the bad news is that they are also afraid of centaurs. To be precise, they are far more afraid of centaurs than themselves.

Less than a third of the slaves in Slaver's Bay are the labor of their own mercenaries and slave-catching teams, while the rest are contributions from the Dothraki.

It can be said that most of the soldiers standing in front of Ian were slaughtered by the Dothraki and sold as slaves. The fear of the Dothraki has long been engraved in their bones.

Accordingly, if they can be made to believe that they can defeat the centaurs, this fear will turn into hatred and motivation.

But it's a pity that the possibility of convincing these cowardly slaves that they can win this kind of thing with just a word of mouth is zero in Ian's opinion. In contrast, Ian prefers to use more tangible things to boost their morale.

"Soldiers who reorganized the First Army and the Second Army, in the past few days, I think the officers I sent to you should have told you a lot of stories about their life experiences." Ian observed the stage The slaves below found that their distracted eyes began to condense.

To ensure that each company (centurion) of slaves heard the story, Ian deliberately chose to mix the centurion and lieutenant for one noble and one slave.

"Yes, I am talking about the fifth-class slavery that is currently implemented in Astapor." Ian continued.

All of a sudden, the slaves' ears perked up.

"I believe that in the past few days, your superiors have told you in detail about the contents of fifth-class slavery, their tragic experiences and the changes brought about by their promotion," Ian said. He paused, "I won't go into details today. Today, what I want to tell you is that from now on, Meereen will also adopt fifth-class slavery!"

After Ian finished speaking, he looked around at the few powerful lords of Meereen who he had specially invited to review the army together.

Several people seemed very shocked, but after a long time, no one raised any objection.

Ian knew that at this moment, Meereen had truly surrendered.
