Game of Thrones: I Created the Magic Web

I really didn't see it, Renly is a gambling dog. Joffrey sighed silently.

After knowing so many truths, he still delusional about being able to make a comeback, deeply believed in Cortnay Penrose's words, and even believed in that kind of plan.

It's a bit naive.

Now that he knows the existence of magical power, has he ever thought that Cortnay Penrose would be affected or controlled by similar forces?

In fact, that's exactly the case.

Joffrey was able to persuade Cortnay Penrose in just one night, relying not only on coercion and inducement.

Just want to do everything with words? That's too arrogant.

Magic is the most reliable and reassuring.

As long as Cortnay's heart has a little wavering, magic can continuously concentrate and amplify his thoughts in one direction, and eventually overwhelm other thoughts and make decisions for him.

This is normal.

Otherwise, how could Cortnay Penrose, who had been fighting to the end in the original book and refused to open Storm's End after Renly's death, be willing to deceive his liege?

It is difficult to force a person who is not afraid of death to do anything.

Perhaps it is because he knows Cortnay's character that Renly trusts him so much.

Of course, it may also be that he is so desperate that he has no way out. Faced with the only glimmer of victory, he has to choose to believe and firmly protect the last hope.

A person who is about to drown, how can he have the energy to distinguish whether he is grabbing a lifebuoy or a noose?

Renly is the same.

Joffrey can say with certainty that Renly is grabbing a noose, a noose that is slowly tightening.

Waiting for the opportunity to mature, the noose will be tightened.

The prey Joffrey is patiently waiting for will also step into the trap, and then he will wipe them all out in one fell swoop, simply and neatly.

"Sandor," he called out to the Hound, "In the past few days, keep your men safe, don't use the artillery, leave only one regiment to defend the city wall, and the others stay in the city honestly, don't let them be discovered outside the city."

The Hound grinned, "Your Majesty, don't worry, I understand, it's just acting, everyone is very skilled."

The Hound patted his chest, "I guarantee that the rebels will not see our details, even if they attack the city for days, we will only use ordinary army methods to defend the city, and never use magic!"

Joffrey nodded, "Also, don't forget to release some ravens every day, and be sure to ensure that they are shot down by the rebels."

The Hound asked again, "What about the content of the letter…"

Joffrey shook his head, "Do I still need to teach you this? You also know the plan. It's nothing more than intelligence such as weak defenses, exhausted strength, the magic effect of Storm's End greatly increased, magic失效, and requests for ships to pick them up."

Joffrey stood up and walked to the window, "In short, just let my uncle Renly, who is unwilling to fail, feel at ease."

Give a reason, and people will deceive themselves.

Joffrey looked out.

The sea was a bright and fresh azure blue, rolling with white waves.

There was not a shadow of a ship.

Cortnay Penrose gave Renly a somewhat reasonable and awkward explanation:

"Joffrey is trying to create a false image of full confidence, so as to restrain the coalition forces outside the city and prevent them from advancing or retreating, hesitating how to leave safely, and not daring to attack the city rashly.

Thus.

He was able to divide a large number of troops to capture the northern territory of the Stormlands, completely surrounding the Allied forces around Stone Mill.

Therefore, Joffrey sent out all the ships, cutting off his retreat to show his confidence."

Renly probably believed it.

Those lords and generals at least believed it on the surface.

Turning the tables.

No one questioned Cortnay Penrose's plan any further. After all, Renly himself had already agreed, and there was nothing else for others to say.

The plan went smoothly.

The ravens accompanying the army have been released to return to their nests, and it is expected that Stone Mill will receive the news tomorrow.

Joffrey was very much looking forward to it.

Duke Mace Tyrell and more than 30,000 troops are stationed in Stone Mill, and there are also many lords or knights from the Reach and the Stormlands.

Once Renly's order arrives, at least half of the people will rush to Storm's End.

Hundreds of families, one-third of the Seven Kingdoms.

Storm's End will be surrounded, the purpose is to take down Joffrey, the king, and seize the Iron Throne.

A life-and-death war.

By then, he will be able to rightfully and maximize the harvest of victory.

Who can complain that the king's methods are unkind?

After this battle, the Reach and the Stormlands will become the basic territory of the royal family, and the overall situation of the Seven Kingdoms has been determined.

Joffrey couldn't help but think of a happy trouble: seventy-seven Kingsguard seemed to be not enough soon, should they be increased to seven hundred and seventy-seven?

More than 30 vacancies, the Reach alone can fill the quota, and there will be many left over.

It is indeed the most fertile land in the Seven Kingdoms.

Highgarden.

"It's really a busy day, an important day for the Seven Kingdoms."

He said with inexplicable emotion.

The Hound listened beside him, not knowing what it meant, but vaguely felt that it was not a bad thing.

Joffrey sat back on the throne.

"I have things to do outside, take care of my body and don't let anyone disturb me."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The Hound skillfully closed the doors and windows and arranged guards.

This is not the first time.

The so-called "prosthetic body" is good in every way, but it is difficult to multitask. The Hound has seen Joffrey trying to control two bodies at the same time. Although it is barely possible, his energy is obviously not as good as usual.

Therefore, unless it is an emergency, Joffrey only focuses his attention on the most important place.

Now, this place is Highgarden.

… …

When he opened his eyes again, what Joffrey saw was the swaying carriage, and the air was filled with the fresh scent of plants and a faint floral fragrance.

He opened the curtains.

As far as the eye could see, there was a whole piece of green fields and hills, dotted with red, gold, purple, and white roses, full of vibrant beauty.

The Kingsguard troops lined up in a long line in the middle were a bit of an eyesore.

Nature and violence, a clear contrast.

Joffrey got out of the carriage, "Everyone, please be polite, let's concentrate on the road. What kind of charm does beautiful Highgarden have? It's really making people can't wait."

"Fearless" Barristan and Loras and others got up silently.

Joffrey looked westward into the distance.

The white majestic castle occupies the entire hill, and carriages and horses are constantly traveling on the two connected avenues, and the wide river below flows slowly, nourishing the vast green land.

The castle has three white circular walls.

The bottom wall surrounds the entire foot of the mountain.

The area between it and the second wall is full of green, which is a carefully arranged plant maze, used to entertain guests and for fun. Of course, enemies will also get lost in this maze and fall into traps.

The last wall is the highest and thickest.

Slender and elegant round towers stand between the three walls.

This is Highgarden.

It is indeed beautiful, with a kind of quiet beauty.

Unfortunately, now it has blown an ear-piercing horn, and a disturbing army is pouring out of it.
