In the Westeros continent, there are only two most powerful and strategic weapons that can be used in war. They are currently: the wildfire in King's Landing controlled by Queen Cersei Lannister and the three giant dragons in the hands of Daenerys Targaryen, the mother of the dragon.
There is nothing else other than that!
Oh, sorry, now the dragon in the hands of the Dragon Mother seems to have only the last two left...
When it comes to ‘wildfire’, we have to talk about its origin:
The true owner of the wildfire should belong to the mad king of the Targaryen Dynasty - Eris Targaryen II! At the same time, he is also the seventeenth member of the Targaryen family and the last member of the family to ascend to the Iron Throne and be overthrown and killed.
The Targaryen family usually uses the red fire-breathing three-headed dragon on black background as their family emblem, representing the conqueror Aegon (1-37 years in the reign of Aegon) and his sisters Visania and Renith. The family's words are "blood and fire". The base of their family is King's Landing, the capital of the seven kingdoms and Dragonstone Island in the narrow sea east of King's Landing and south of the Crab Claw Peninsula.
Generally speaking, the kings of the Targaryen family usually sit on the Iron Throne in King's Landing Red Fort and rule the extremely vast and fertile land of Westeros. In general, Dragonstone Island will be left to the first heir of their family! Because it is said that Dragonstone Island is the habitat of dragons, and dragons are the guarantee of the rule of the Targaryen family, so this place is extremely important to the Targaryen royal family!
However……
Because the last weak dragon of the Targaryen family, Chenguang, the dragon belonging to Renia, was too young to participate in the blood dragon dance, and finally survived the "giant" dragon. When it died in the reign of Aegon Targaryen III (Aegon 131-157), there were no dragons in the Targaryen family.
So, when the Mad King Eris II (Aegon 262-283), there was no dragon, and he was almost defeated by the rebel army in the battle of the "Battle of the Bell". After the rebel leader Robert Baratheon was even allowed to escape calmly, Eris II, the king, began to fear that Robert's rebels would eventually win the war?
Therefore, in order to restore the depressed unfavorable situation, he recruited magical alchemists and finally developed a magical "wildfire" in time, and formulated a plan to "burn the King's Landing" to let the entire city and the rebels burn together, thus achieving the goal of winning the war.
And this is the origin of the ‘wildfire’.
At that time, Eris II appointed Count Rosater, Gaugos and Beris, three alchemists, to jointly create thousands of powerful wildfire jars, and secretly buried them in various parts of King's Landing... From the bottom of the Great Hall to the shabby houses of the flea nests, the Knight's stables, the Kingdom's warehouses, the seven large and large city gates of King's Landing, hotels, sewers, squares, and even the cellars of the Red Fort, there are a large number of wildfire jars that can directly destroy the entire city.
Eris II's idea was actually very good, because if his plan was successful, even if the last Robert Baratheon's rebels successfully attacked King's Landing, as long as he retreated in time and ignited the "wildfire" so that the entire city and the enemy's army would be burned together, he would still be the winner.
Although this plan is cruel and evil, once it is successful, it will definitely quell the rebellion of the rebels in one fell swoop, continue to maintain the rule of the Targaryen family, and at the same time it can also intimidate the nobles who are ready to move, so that they will bow their heads and dare not have any other intentions again!
It's a pity...
The idea is good and feasible, but the reality is cruel.
Iris II did not do a very good job of keeping confidentiality in secret plans like this, which was planned to blow up the rebels and millions of people in the city...
Because, in addition to being arranged by several alchemists, this top secret plan also knew about it, there was also an Imperial Guard, the one who was known as the "Fu Xiao Divine Sword" who was disabled and had an invincible fight before!
So, in the end, Eris II's plan of destruction failed without a doubt...
In the end, he died under the sword of the young James Lannister, and... James Lannister's widely circulated name of "Reign Slayer" was obtained from this.
No matter what the reason why James Lannister killed Eris II, or how despicable the crazy king was, it is indeed an undisputed fact that he personally took action to kill the monarch he had loyal to!
Therefore, the "wildfire" stored under the king's lands fell after the fall of the Crazy King and after the demise of the Targaryen Dynasty, it naturally fell into the hands of a few people in the entire Lannister family! And this is why the little demon Tyrion Lannister could use the "wildfire" to burn Stannister's warships in the Battle of the Blackwater River!
"Since you've found it out..."
"Then you go and get rid of all those people, no one left! I will never want any can of wildfire to fall into the hands of outsiders again!!"
In the huge cellar under the King of Red Fort, Cersei Lannister first explained to a figure in the dark before turning around and walking to the light, looking at a group of slaves who were busy working under the supervision of the soldiers, and asked:
"How about it, little Annie, are my wildfire reserves very shocking?"
"As long as they have them, I will not be afraid of them, whether they are the Dragon Mother from the East, the Crow Eye from the West, the Tali from the South, the Stark family from the North, or even the White Walkers... I will burn one if they come, and I will burn two if they come!"
Yes, because of these large amounts of "wildfires" hidden under the king's land, and because of their existence, Cersei Lannister would not be afraid of the three dragons of the Dragon Mother, or the White Walkers! This is also the real reason why she refused the suggestion and advice of her brother James and refused to send troops to fight against the White Walkers with the rebels!
Because Cersei knew that the dragon mother's dragon was not invulnerable to swords and guns, nor could it be killed! In fact, the three big reptiles on the other side have been killed by White Walkers! That huge monster is actually nothing extraordinary except flying and ignition!
As for the White Walkers, let alone...
Before, when she and the woman of Dragon Mother, Jon Snow, and others gathered in the rotten city outside King's Landing City, she had seen Jon Snow burn the broken hand of the White Walker with ordinary flames. Then, there is no doubt that those White Walkers are afraid of fire!
Now, Cersei has a huge amount of "wildfires" in her hand and powerful flame weapons that can directly burn the entire King's Land. How could she be afraid of those White Walkers?
"But……"
(?_?)
"If they only come to one group, how could you burn two groups?"
∑(′△)?!
In Little Annie's opinion, this kind of "wildfire" is actually nothing extraordinary.
They are nothing more than the mixed liquids of oil, the mixture of various alkanes, cycloalkanes and aromatic hydrocarbons cooled and extracted by heating. They are far inferior to the pure aviation kerosene, gasoline, and diesel on the earth, which are backward and expensive, and are only expensive to increase prices but not reduce prices!
These people use this kind of "wildfire" to ignite them and then let this unstable fuel explode and explode in a small space. It is just the most basic and simple use. Moreover, this kind of thing can not be thrown far even with a catapult. If it is buried in advance, it can only be buried under the city in advance as if it is thought.
but……
Annie also felt that these people were really big, hiding so many dangerous goods and hiding these explosive fuels under the entire city for so many years, looking at the dust in the wooden barrels of shoes, they were not afraid of accidentally igniting the fire one day and blowing up the entire city?!
You know, even at the gas stations on earth, even the broken Laura car of Uncle Colson, when they went to refuel, they kept reminding themselves not to play with fire, and then they dared to enter and refuel. They were afraid that she accidentally lit the entire gas station and bombed some unlucky guys and people around them to the sky?
Speaking of Uncle Colson, I don’t know what the other party is doing now…
To be honest, Annie misses them a little now!
"By the way!"
"Annie, what else do you do besides being able to control the flames and transform that snowman?"
After so many days of contact and understanding, Cersei has almost understood this little girl very much and is very relieved to be able to go to and from her Queen Cersei’s bedroom without any notice.
Because, both she and the other party have regarded each other as friends. Although she has some utilitarian purposes, at least she is sincere and has no other purpose. At least not now, she has regarded the other party as her daughter Myrcella, and even gave the other party to live in the princess's bedroom before she kissed her. This is enough to show her force field.
"I know magic!!"
(＾w＾)
“…”
"Magic? What exactly is magic, and what is its use?"
The word magic has been heard countless times in the little girl's mouth these days, but she has never understood what magic is. She agrees with objectives, such as the little girl's fire control ability, such as the little girl's snowman, etc.
"Magic is magic. I am now a very powerful arcane wizard. My magic is omnipotent!"
(*?′╰╯`?)?
Yes, Anne is already very strong now...
But how strong she is, she is not sure about playing games by herself or the bear... After all, Queen Anne is a good girl, so she will not go to fight casually! In these countless worlds and countless planes, there are so many interesting and fun things. She is very busy, so she will not be able to fight and show off every day like a fool!
"Magic omnipotence?"
"Ha! Little Annie, I still don't believe it..."
There is no omnipotent ability or character in this world, and I'm afraid even the Seven Gods can't do it! Therefore, Cersei obviously doesn't believe in this matter.
"But my magic is omnipotent now!!"
(..??_??..)
Anne's own ability is real, and she has learned and grown up step by step from a talented little girl. Of course, I won't talk about the various opportunities. Just now, such as this world, this Westeros continent, as long as she thinks, she only needs one thought to make it disappear or reshape it directly!
But, Anne would definitely not do that kind of thing. She just came here to play and play, not to destroy or dominate the king. Such things really have no meaning at all.
“…”
Cersei twitched, ignoring the little girl's words of nonsense or innocentness, she just turned her head and looked at the other side, looking at the bachelor who obeyed her orders under her.
"Bachelor, how did the task I assigned you to accomplish?"
Cersei's use of wildfire was not simply like Tyrion in the Battle of the Blackwater River, throwing it into the water and igniting it, or hiding it like the Crazy King Eris II, passively defending and preparing to die with the enemy?
Compared to those two idiots, Cersei is more keen on attacking, and is keen on transforming wildfires into magical weapons that can attack. Just like the kind of catapults used by the rebels to assassinate themselves a few days ago, they directly used the "wildfire" as stones and oil tanks, and threw them out after sealing and ignition. Their power was very terrifying, and they almost burned her to death...
That's right, if Queen Cersei hadn't happened to meet that little girl at that time, and she happened to be in a good mood to receive the other party, those rebels would have really succeeded!
So, inspired, she ordered the bachelor in King's Landing to develop a safe and effective way to attack "wildfire" in the shortest time! It is far from enough for a trencher. She at least needs a longer distance and a higher throw! Otherwise, whether it is against the White Walker or the Dragon Mother Daenerys Targaryen, she, Cersei, will definitely not be able to gain any advantage.
"Of course, my queen..."
"Look, according to your instructions, we took three days and three nights and finally came up with a plan that suits your expectations..."
Queen Cersei, who found that she was murdering without blinking, turned around and asked herself. The old scholar did not dare to be negligent. She quickly took out a large roll of parchment from her desk and carefully spread it on the table before she signaled the other party to come forward to watch.
"Huh? Is there anything fun here?"
o((*^▽^*))o
Little Annie, who thought it was something fun, saw it and jumped off the wooden barrels filled with "wildfires" beside her, then jumped to the table, looking at the open drawings of the white-bearded old man.
She likes the most about joining in the fun!
Of course, if it's fun to join in, it's even more perfect!
“…”
The old bachelor squinted his presbyopia eyes, and first raised up and down and again, the little girl who rushed up was whistling up, and then shook her head after thinking of the other party's great achievements two days ago, and those snowmen who were chasing a group of children in the city and almost caused riots.
Whether it was this little girl who had special abilities and could not be understood by him, or the Queen Cersei who was frowning and looking at the drawings and waiting for him to explain, they were all too big and small, so he could only stretch out his fingers and explain to the things on the drawings:
"Look..."
"This is our improved 'wildfire' pot. In addition to the normal seal, we also applied a layer of fire-proof paint on the outside and then applied flammable grease to ensure that it will not be burned suddenly before it lands, or explode in its own positions?"
"There is another one..."
"This is an improved counterweight catapult car. The more counterweight, the farther the projection distance, and the adjustable direction... After calculation and testing, it can probably launch our wildfires on the flat ground for more than three times the distance of the general catapult car, about 800 to 1,000 feet..."
Because time was really tight and the Queen Cersei ordered it to be completed as soon as possible, they could only use the assassins to improve the ideas of catapults and pottery...but the effect was extremely good.
Anyway, this thing is already very good in his opinion, a bachelor from the bookstore. It will definitely be twice the result with half the effort to defend King Land!
As for the offense...
Then you really can't ask for too much, they have really tried their best.
“…”
"Not enough! What I need is something that can attack the enemies in the sky!!"
After looking at the drawings for a while, Cersei's face was still a little unfavorable, because she knew that in the future, whether her enemy was the mother of the dragon or the White Walkers, what she had to face was in addition to the enemy's ground troops, there were also giant dragons from the sky!
If the White Walker wins and goes south in the end, then what she has to face is one to three giant dragons...
And if Daenerys Targaryen's group wins by then, what she needs to face is in addition to the elite veterans who have taken advantage of the victory to the south, there are also the two dragons of the enemy! Therefore, she must be able to deal with the enemy's weapons in the sky, rather than this catapult, or the meaningless crossbow that Koben recommended to you before.
"The heaven..."
"I'm sorry Her Majesty, we are really powerless..."
The bachelor of course understood what Queen Cersei meant, but looking at all the books in the school city, he could not find a way to attack enemies in the sky, that is, attack those giant dragons! Once those giant dragons grow up, their effects on them are limited, whether they are bows, arrows, or crossbows.
Of course, unless they fly down to the ground and let the enemy attack? But obviously, the dragons prefer to spit out fire in the sky rather than fly down to play hand-to-hand combat!
"I don't want to hear such nonsense from you, I just need to see the results! You must take advantage of the enemy in the air before the battle in the north ends!"
Cersei issued an ultimatum directly.
"this……"
The old bachelor was a little anxious. If there was such a thing there, how could he find a way to deal with the dragon? Not to mention him, even if he gathered all the bachelors in the entire school town and searched through the books in the entire school town, he was sure that they would never find any good solution!
Otherwise, the Targaryen dynasty would not have lasted for so many years until it was overthrown after the dragon was gone.
"that……"
|??w?`)
"Actually, I have a good idea!"
(*^▽?*)☆
With a blink of an eye, Anne simply grabbed a blank parchment paper, and then a wizard hand made a quill quickly copy the two drawings she saw from the library when she was in New York.
Of course, in addition to the patterns, she used the common text of the Westeros continent.
"Here! I'll give it to you!"
(′▽｀)ノ?
"No need to thank me, I'll go out to play first. You must not play with fire here!"
-=????=???????(?)?
After saying that, Annie ran to the entrance of the stairs of this huge underground facility like an air raid shelter. The air here was very dull and the irritating gasoline smell of wildfires. She didn't like it very much, so she wanted to go back to the ground!
(Dear little master, is it so troublesome? You might as well give them a batch of electromagnetic rifles and cannon missiles directly! At that time, no matter what kind of White Walker or Flying Dragon it is, one shot is definitely not necessary to hit a second shot.
(?ˉ?ˉ?ˉ?)
——In Tibers’s view, with the productivity of this era, the production of weapons and armor is entirely crafted, and not to mention steam engines, even windmills and water trucks have not yet used. Even with detailed drawings, they can’t make a few qualified barrels in a month! On the contrary, the cannon is easier to build, but the quality is better, so there is no need to think about it.)
"Tibers, they have helped them a lot. It is impossible for me to go to everything. I don't like that kind of war game!!"
(ˉ▽￣￞］)Tsk~~
“…”
"What's this?"
Cersei obviously couldn't understand, so after being shocked by the little girl's way of controlling the writing of the quill pen, she looked at the old bachelor in confusion.
"this……"
"It's really amazing..."
The old bachelor's eyes were almost put on the drawings, and he looked carefully at each pattern and each detailed description of the size.
"gunpowder……"
"Murder..."
"And this cannon..."
"Detonation, seal and thrust...so that's it..."
The old bachelor read it roughly at the fastest speed. After he seemed to understand it, he raised his head. He looked at the direction the little girl left in shock before nodding to Queen Cersei who was waiting:
"Her Majesty, this thing is amazing!"
"I need manpower, and blacksmiths, a lot of copper, iron, lead, saltpeter, charcoal and sulfur!!"
“…”
"What the hell is this?"
“…”
"A remarkable weapon!!"
"How powerful is it?"
"It may be even more powerful than a dragon, just a weapon that can be mastered by us mortals!!"
“!!”
"I will ask Coben to arrange everything you need tomorrow. When will you see the finished product for me?"
“…”
"I don't know, this thing is very difficult, I need to study it for a few days!"
"You must be a bachelor's degree as soon as possible!"
"Of course, my Majesty..."
