Chapter 35 Take the letter and get out!

The Earl of Harvest Hall, Astan, opened the city gate, but there was no time to close it.

The cavalry who followed him knocked open the city gate, and Lin En beheaded him on top of the city!

The third day is Fellwood City. The Earl here is Heywood Fell. He fell into a frozen pond on the way to King's Landing with Stannis and died of illness soon after. At this time, the new city lord took office but did not receive any canonization from either party.

, Lin En easily defeated the city with the momentum of victory,

In three days, three cities, Bronzegate City, Harvest Hall, and Fairwood City, together with the original Hay Hall, were all captured in the plains north of Storm's End. The fiefdom Earl was executed and the fiefdom was recovered.

This land in the storm land, which is most suitable for cultivation and has the largest population, is back under Linn's control.

Linn refused any begging for mercy or allegiance, and massacred anyone who was hostile,

Recruit officials locally, cooperate with officials from Storm's End, and redistribute the land under the suppression of the Unsullied.

As a large number of civilians get land, they will be the most supportive of Linn.

Defending these cities, the only thing that can threaten Storm's End from land is the Eagle's Nest Castle that connects the Rainforest Peninsula.

Ten days later, Linn eliminated all the opposition forces in this area, leaving a part of the Unsullied to maintain order in the four cities, while selecting and training soldiers, and led the troops back to Storm's End.

"Congratulations to the Duke on your victory!" Ronald led the officials of Storm's End to greet Linn at the gate of the city.

"There is nothing to congratulate, this is just the beginning!" Linn rode across the horse and said without looking back: "Ronald, come see me later!"

"Yes! Your Majesty the Duke!"

In the Bucks Hall, Lin En was sitting on the throne. Ronald was kneeling in front of him, his face was red, and he looked at Lin En excitedly.

"Really? My lord, are you willing to let me take back the Eagle's Nest Castle?"

Lin En nodded: "I can give you this opportunity, but you also know the result I want! Can you do it?"

"Don't worry, sir!" Ronald pointed his head straight.

"Although Robert returned Eagle's Nest to the Clinton family, he deprived them of their lordships and most of their territories, and enfeoffed it to others. I promise to clean up Eagle's Nest and the surrounding fiefdoms.

Leave it clean to the adults!"

"Then I will wait here for your triumph! Take away all the defenders in the city. When you come back, you will be the steward of Storm's End Castle!"

Ronald led the troops away,

At the same time, the news that Lin En sent troops to sweep several cities spread rapidly among various forces in the Stormlands.

All the mocking voices were silenced in an instant!

"That's impossible!" was the first reaction everyone heard,

Although some of these cities underestimated the enemy and some were in chaos, Linn's feat of three hundred cavalrymen finally defeating two thousand cavalrymen still made their hair stand on end!

The biggest reactions came from several cities on the Rainforest Peninsula.

The Rainforest Peninsula is south of Storm's End and is a vast forest on Cape Wrath. Although it is humid and rainy, the soil is fertile and covers a large area.

It was nominally assigned to Davos Seaworth by Stannis, also known as the famous Onion Knight, but everyone knew that he was unable to control this area at all, and even his people were still thousands of miles away on Dragonstone Island.

Woolen cloth.

There are four cities scattered in this forest, namely Crow's Nest Castle, Rainhouse City, Mist Forest City and the most powerful Stonehelm City!

Among these cities, the heir to the Earl of Crow's Nest was killed by Lyn in the Battle of King's Landing.

Rainhouse is still loyal to Stannis.

Stonehelm City is located next to a large river that flows into the Dorne Sea. This river may have given them a lot of wealth and power. They may even be one of the most influential nobles in the Stormlands below the Baratheon family, and Stonehelm City

Many people in Helm City were killed or captured during the Battle of King's Landing.

They all had reasons not to surrender. After learning the details, they began to prepare for war. In a very short period of time, they gathered nearly 10,000 troops. Under the leadership of the Earl of Stonehelm City, Gulian Shiwen,

Stay in the first city into the rainforest, Crow's Nest!

By guarding this place, the army from Storm's End will not be able to invade the rainforest, and then the rainforest will be in an invincible position first.

Count Gurion has rich combat experience and has two sons. The eldest son followed Stannis on the expedition and swore allegiance to the Iron Throne after being captured in King's Landing.

The second son, Balon, is one of the seven Kingsguards and serves King Joffrey and King Tommen successively.

Ten thousand troops are guarding Crow's Nest Castle, and news from the front is constantly coming.

The aristocratic forces near Eagle's Nest Castle have been wiped out by the bastard son of the Clinton family. Duke Linn's troops from various places began to gather towards Eagle's Nest Castle.

A month later, the nearly abandoned Eagle's Nest came back to life. Three thousand Unsullied, plus five thousand soldiers recruited from various places, were garrisoned by eight thousand soldiers.

Nearly 20,000 troops from both sides faced off on this narrow coastline.

At the same time, a reprimand from King's Landing was placed on Linn's desk!

The person who sent it was Lord Gurian's second son, Balon Swann, one of the seven Kingsguards.

"Duke Linn, please stop your illegal behavior immediately. This is the order of the Prime Minister and the King!"

Baron was standing in front of the table, looking at Linn with contempt,

Lin Enli ignored him, reached out to open the wax seal, and glanced at the contents of the letter.

The Royal Council had no position to prevent Lin En from regaining the fiefdom, but they still found the direction of attack and reprimanded Lin En for his massacre of the nobles!

How could the nobles slaughter them at will without trial? Especially when they had surrendered,

After reading it, Lin En sneered, threw the letter at his feet, and stepped on it.

Balon Swann raised his eyebrows, and just as he was about to have an attack, Linn's cold eyes swept across,

"Who gave you permission to stand?"

In an instant, Baron's chest felt as if he had been hit hard by a giant hammer. A mouthful of blood surged up. His whole body was numb as if it was electrified. His knees softened and he fell to his knees!

"What is this? Who is this?" Baron almost fainted, and the intense fear in his mind made him almost lose consciousness!

Linn stopped looking at him and wrote a few lines on the parchment.

"The penalty for betrayal and oath-breaking is death, and poachers and thieves will lose one hand. This is a universal penalty! I punish treachery, and the king has no right to interfere!"

After Linn finished writing, he threw it to Baron on the spot.

"Take the letter and get out!"

The iron guard gritted his teeth and reluctantly stood up, picked up the letter with a lowered face, bent down and exited. He no longer had the courage to face Lin En.

After Balon went out, he rode his horse and galloped out of the city without stopping for a moment.

Shortly after he left the city, Lin En personally led 300 heavy cavalry, plus a thousand light cavalry recruited from various places, and rushed to the Eagle's Nest Castle!
