Chapter 605 Confrontation

The magic circles that sprinkled like oil paintings on the city wall have emitted red light, transforming from the originally bright white to the dazzling blood red, like burning flames, spreading out from the majestic walls of Fengxi Castle, dyeing most of the bright sky red.

The originally clear sky became dim, as if dusk had arrived early, and the dark red sky was rendered with a layer of blood, making people feel deep depression.

The sea leaning against it also seemed a bit terrifying under the bright red. The originally clear sea water was dark red and hideous. The waves were rolling uneasy, causing layers of surging waves. Countless invisible sea creatures lurked under the waves.

This scene can be clearly visible even dozens of kilometers away. For example, the Tyrion brothers on the dragon's back looked strangely as the Fengxi Castle dyed most of the sky red, but they didn't know what was happening.

The flying dragon under him has reached the fastest speed, but it is still a while before he arrives at Fengxi Castle.

The thick-skinned and thick-skinned flying dragon didn't feel anything when it was flying for a long time, but the two people on it were already trembling with cold, and even their bodies were covered with frost. However, the coldness could not match the chill in Yi Xiao's heart, and the chill that appeared after he saw this magic circle.

"This is..." Yi Xiao narrowed his eyes and his tone was a little hesitant.

But at this time, a person appeared behind him, "What is this? His Excellency Sean." It was the former captain of the Royal Guard beside Daenerys, Balistan. He was ordered to find Yi Xiao, and had been standing here for a long time.

From Yi Xiao moving out of the blacksmith shop to the appearance of this magic circle that occupied the entire city wall, he could see clearly from the side. Moreover, after being with Yi Xiao for so long, he could vaguely feel that there seemed to be huge magic in it.

Yi Xiao did not put down his frown, and he said slowly, "I don't know."

"..." Balistan turned his speechless eyes to Yi Xiao after hearing this, "Maybe we should first inform Her Majesty of this matter that there is an army of eight thousand innocent people in Fengxi Castle."

Yi Xiao did not answer him, but asked strangely. "Why are you here? Daenerys should be very busy now."

...

Daenerys was indeed very busy at this time. Although she didn't know how Yi Xiao did it, Sir Farin and several noble families in Fengxi Castle did completely express their surrender to her. This meant that Fengxi Castle had officially become her territory, and it also meant that it had become her responsibility.

Although enthroning a territory requires the will of the Iron Throne, Daenerys is the true dragon successor of Targaryen in the former dynasty. The Iron Throne itself is not worthy of the name, so she does not need the recognition of the Iron Throne. Instead, it should be hers to control the Iron Throne. So far, wherever Daenerys defeated her is hers.

What's more, it's not clear who Junlin belongs to at this time.

"Faring, what's going on in Wind Breath Castle now?" Under the leadership of Sir Faring, Daenerys and others entered the Lord's Hall of Wind Breath Castle with Stark and others, while asking in a low voice.

Although the soldiers around were strange, no one made any extreme actions. One was that as Sir Farin's personal soldiers, they were completely loyal to him. They would do whatever he asked them to do, so Farin was loyal to Daenerys, and they were loyal to Daenerys.

Another reason is that Daenerys is famous and has never seen it with his own eyes, but the name of the Dragon Mother of the Dragon from Essus, who traveled across the ocean to Westeros. As a coastal military fortress, it is impossible that he had never heard of it. These soldiers were actually more curious than strange.

"I'm not hiding it from your Majesty." Falin smiled bitterly and whispered, "The situation in the castle is not very good."

As the supreme commander of the Wind Sniff Fort, Sir Faring was appointed to stay in the fortress of Sniffer's base camp when Sniffer gathered all his strength to the North.

At the beginning, Sir Falling did a good job in maintaining and stabilizing the development of Fengxi Castle. He even used the fragments of funds that the Iron Vault had lent to Stannis to contact several caravans, and once made Fengxi Castle prosperous.

But the good times did not last long. Yanchang Town was suddenly attacked by a group of thugs. Although it seemed to be stopped by a few strange people, the second attack soon came. After Yanchang Town was severely injured, Fengxi Castle lost a caravan with the most travels.

Although one caravan was missing, the remaining caravans from the coastal areas of Eagle Nest City could still maintain a certain amount of funds and income, but the second crisis came not long ago.

Junlin suddenly suffered a sudden change. Although he didn't know what happened, Falin keenly realized that this change would probably not have to be small when the King of the North died there. Originally, this seemed to have no effect on Fengxi Castle, because this was a question that his master Stannis should consider, but Junlin suddenly cut off the land caravans from south to north soon after.

All the caravans passing through the Royal Grove and Rose Avenue disappeared. You should know that the caravans on land are the most important sources of supply for Fengxi Castle. Perhaps for other towns, the closure of Rose Avenue will not affect anything. At most, prices will rise a little, but for Fengxi Castle, which is backed by the sea and nestled on high cliffs of the mountains, it is fatal.

Moreover, the caravans traveling to and from Junlin had a heart-warming high-value trade, so even if Fengxi Castle belonged to Stannis, Junlin never cut off the traffic. Although the Iron Throne was controlled by the Lannister family, the interests of the caravan belonged to other nobles, and even Lannister did not inflict public anger.

But this time, if it was replaced by a werewolf who had already been fed by humans, there was no reason to say.

Falin didn't know what happened to King's Landing, but the food was not to be eaten. Although there were still a few caravans who deviated from the Rose Avenue and avoided King's Landing and passed through the King's Landing in advance, the number was too small. They were all specially sent to them for Stannis's sake, and the price was very high.

Fortunately, Hailu was behind the scenes, otherwise Fengxi Castle would have collapsed long ago.

But even so, with just a caravan traveling around Eagle Nest City, the resources in Fengxi Castle are still decreasing. By the time Daenerys comes here, the spare grain and surplus grain are only enough for half a month. Even if Daenerys doesn't attack, Fengxi Castle cannot defend it.

"The situation is so bad." Daenerys sat in the middle of the lord's hall, quietly listening to Sir Faring's report, and then frowned slightly.

Falin was very tired during this period. As soon as he defected to Daenerys, he immediately felt bitter. "Now, only the caravans in Haiou Town still have to travel with us, so Longshi Island doesn't have to think about it. It is Lannister's back garden, and Yanchang Town will have a long time to recover. Because of your arrival, the caravans that should have entered the city in the past two days did not come from the direction of the imperial forest. If this continues, Fengxi Castle will not survive the next arrival of Haiou Town's food."

Daenerys nodded thoughtfully. Now she knew why Yi Xiao had proposed to hide in the fleet and carry a lot of food and spices. "The food problem is easy to deal with." She said, "My fleet has a lot of food, which is enough for everyone to spend this time. What else is the situation? How many people are there in Fengxi Castle?"

As soon as he heard that the food problem of Fengxi Castle could be solved, Sir Faring immediately felt relieved and became energetic. After thinking about it, he whispered, "The army guarding the city has a total of 800 people, a reserve force of 400, and the others in the castle... are about 5,000."

Fengxi Fort is a military fortress that cannot accommodate so many people in theory. However, after becoming Stannis' territory, he has been expanding for so many years, gradually expanding a castle into a collection of fortresses and cities, so he can accommodate so many people, but if he wants to accommodate the eight thousand impure people, it is probably impossible.

"Are there five thousand people?" Daenerys had a little thought in his mind. The settlement of the Wudier was very simple. He could take turns to return to part of the ship. Anyway, Fengxi Castle has a channel to connect the sea. The fleet is protected by Yi Xiao's magic, so it is very stable and safe in normal times, and there will be no bumps or bumps.

"Your Majesty...Food..." Sir Faring asked in a low voice. It was not that he was anxious, but that there were starving people in the castle at this time, and the cold was still aggravating this phenomenon.

Daenerys nodded casually. "You call a group of people to go to the boat with the Ultimate people to bring food down." Then she turned back and said to Dario, "You go to contact the Ultimate people and let the fleet go north, and enter the range of the Wind and Breaking Ship Bay Castle in the shortest time."

"Next..." Daenerys paused for a moment and frowned. She was not unfamiliar with managing the city. After all, Meereen's population is much larger than that of Fengxi Castle, but the situation between the two is different. Moreover, this is Westeros, not a slave society, and her rule still requires the help of the nobles.

"Party, party." It seemed that Daenerys was hesitant about what to do next, Stark immediately urged him, and this was also what he liked the most and was best at.

"What?" Daenerys kept calm and asked in a low voice, tilting her head slightly.

"Oh, it's a banquet, dinner," Stark whispered. "You should hold a dinner, not only to contact the nobles in the city, but also to announce your own brings, and to distribute food, telling the civilians in the castle that there is still reserve of food in the castle."

"It's a good idea." Daenerys nodded immediately and told Balistan the idea.

Stark was also very satisfied. He had been looking forward to a medieval dinner for a long time, with an empty and majestic castle, a quiet corridor, a dim torch, crystal red wine, a hearty food, a lively banquet, and ubiquitous and secret empty rooms, enthusiastic noble ladies, and beautiful and helpless maids...

Very good, Stark is still the same Stark, and has not changed at all. Perhaps the food at this banquet may disappoint him a little, and he should be fine with the rest. After all, now he has seen several noble ladies with very good faces, and seems to be very interested in the people around him, the queen. Oh, it must be a wonderful night tonight.

Speaking of the banquet, Daenerys finally remembered that she seemed to have forgotten something. Her eyes glanced around the crowd below, but she did not find her chief wizard. It might be nothing if someone else was not there, but Yi Xiao was not here, which made her feel unsure.

"Where is Your Excellency Sean?" She whispered to Balistan. The gray bug was seriously injured. During the period of recovery, Balistan replaced him.

"Uh." Baristan was stunned for a moment, obviously not knowing where Yi Xiao was going, so he could only say, "He didn't come to the Lord's Hall with us."

"Go and find him." Daenerys frowned and added, "The fleet's problems still need his help."

Westeros still have a coastal patrol fleet, so Daenerys led the Imperialis to log in to several large ships, and they still need magical help to hide. Along the way, Yi Xiao not only accelerated the fleet's speed and led them to avoid the storm in advance, but after arriving in Westeros, he also used spells to hide dozens of ships.

Now that the coastal fortress Fengxi Fort has been won, the fleet naturally has a place to dock, so it can be lifted from hiding.

"Yes, your majesty." Balistan whispered.

...

"It was Her Majesty the Queen who asked me to find you." Standing beside Yi Xiao, Balistan looked calm. He was an old knight. Although he didn't like Yi Xiao very much before, it had already passed. After so long, he had already known the importance of Yi Xiao and paid great attention to the hierarchical relationship between the two. "We are holding a banquet, but you are not here."

"The banquet is so fast." Yi Xiao chuckled, "Has the Wugui settled down?"

"Not yet." Balistan shook his head, "The situation of Fengxi Castle is worse than any of us think. Stannis not only took away most of the supplies before going to the expedition, but also recently he had broken contact with Fengxi Castle. In addition, King's trade route was blocked, so they could only accept supplies from the sea, and even food was very tight."

"If we hadn't brought food, I'm afraid that even if no one attacked Fengxi Castle, many people in the Castle would have been able to survive for three months."

"Since that's the case, why should Daenerys stay here? Just go to Junlin directly." Yi Xiao said, "There are dragons and a few of us. Junlin's werewolfs are not opponents. Don't tell me that she plans to stay here and make Fengxi Castle very vivid?"

"I don't know Her Majesty's decision yet," said Balistan seriously. "But I think Her Majesty the Queen will not give up here. After all, the people in the Wind Snack Castle are her people, and... His Majesty also needs to re-equip the Unsullied, otherwise they will definitely not be the opponents of the Westeros cavalry." (To be continued.)
