The Winter of Ice and Fire Is Coming

In order to ensure safety, Jorah ordered the army to retreat three miles to camp. He took the guard himself, riding the mount with the horse's mouth, and looked forward.

Along the way, the villages I saw were burned down, the small towns were burned down, and some very good grasslands were sprinkled with kerosene and burned. There are a lot of grasslands. After being burned, there are still many lawns, and these lawns look suspicious now.

Before trying the water in the streams, wells, and lakes, no one dared to let a horse drink it, let alone take it personally.

Entering the village, apart from the broken walls and houses, no living materials were left behind.

Qiao La looked at it and knew that it was the wise masters of Mi Lin who practiced the "Clear Field". This was the first time Qiao La had met. It's just that the water and grass, I don't know if it was poisoned on a large scale, or if it was only selectively poisoned on the marching road. Therefore, the formation of suspicion made the soldiers dare not drink water and the horses dare not eat grass.

But this is easy to handle. Wherever the water—the rat and kitten are okay if they drink it, it’s safe; where the grass—the pigs and sheep are okay if they eat it, the horse is also safe.

If you can’t drink water for grazing along the way, it’s very problematic. You can take food and grass with you on your way, but it’s hard to take water with you.

Qiaora was a cautious person. After watching the journey, he returned the same way. People dare not drink water and horses dare not eat grass.

Qiaola returned to her military account. According to his order, all the medical doctors in the army came. There were more than a dozen people, including men and women, many of whom were hairless. Hairless people refer to eunuchs with medical skills. They used to be slaves.

"Who can recognize the poisonous water and grass?" Jora asked.

No one answered.

Jora decided to say something else: "Tell me, when someone poisons the water and grass, who should I go to to detoxify the water and grass?"

"Witch or priest!" said a healer.

"Is there a witch or priest in our army?"

"No, General Jorah."

Qiao Ra pondered for a moment and said, "I want to send someone to find the witch or priest on the grassland to help. Who can tell me what to do? How much money, food, food or other things should I ask someone to bring Where can the witches and priests find in the grassland?"

"In the village, General Chora."

"There are no villages and towns ahead." Qiaora said, "but on our way, we passed many villages and towns."

"The bigger the village, the more likely it is to find a priest or witch." A healer said.

Qiaola has made a decision in his heart. He said: "I will send three teams to go in three directions to find places where people gather on the grassland, and then invite priests or witches. But at the same time, you have a dozen. A healer must find a way to go on the road ahead and find the water and grass that have not been poisoned."

A dozen doctors looked at each other.

"Don't be afraid, I will allow you to take the small animals and set off together. If the small animals drank the water and ate the grass without any casualties, the water and grass are safe. There is no shortage of rabbits and mice on the grassland."

A dozen or so military doctors were relieved.

Under Qiao La's order, the three teams set off in three directions, bringing money and food, to find nomadic tribes on the grassland. More than a dozen healers in the army led their apprentices and attendants, led by the vanguard cavalry team, entered the area destroyed by the wise masters of Mi Lin, and began to search for safe and healthy waters and grasslands.

The wise masters of Milin cleared the fields and sent 20,000 troops to burn the area north of Milin with the strategy of burning, looting, and driving the people away. They went up and down the water and grass on the road that the Dothraki must pass. Very toxic.

In Meerin, Yuankai, and Astapo, there are wizards who specialize in breeding a terrible insect that is good at killing people. This insect has a fearsome name: Heliconia.

The scorpion tail is very poisonous and was first discovered on an island in the Jade Sea. Among the countless islands in the Jade Sea, there is an island that is covered with such highly poisonous insects, and that island is also called Heliconia Island. Not far from the island of the Helicopter, there is an island. Legend has it that the first dragon egg was found on that island.

After this scorpion was discovered by a dark wizard, the news spread. Dark wizards who specialize in poison research went to the scorpion island to catch this poisonous insect in groups.

Later magicians also heard the sound and came to this island. Dark wizards and magicians were deeply hostile to each other. In order to avoid conflict, these wizards and magicians who like to breed, research, and drive poisons each occupied nearby areas. The island was settled, and it was specially refined, researched, and equipped with new venom by taking the venom of the scorpion tail. Over time, the famous scorpion tail island was formed.

The prosperity of the Heliconia archipelago caused the rapid reproduction of the Heliconia, and through the hands of these evil wizards and magicians, it began to spread throughout the continent of Essos.

In Braavos, a free trade city-state, Neptune has a small courtyard that specializes in breeding this highly poisonous insect. No matter how powerful people or animals are, if they are stabbed by the scorpion tail poisonous sting of a specially bred scorpion tail, there is no antidote and they will undoubtedly die.

This legendary creature is common in Valyria, in statues in Meerim and Yunkai, Astapo, and many cities in the east. The family crest of the Lodge family on the west side of Westeros is the Scorpiontail.

The scorpion has an emerald shell, a curved and thorny tail, and a disturbingly vicious black face. Scorpion tails will hiss and are good at disguising like green beetles. Its poison is deadly to humans, and it is also a superior poison recommended by monks, wizards, priests, alchemists, and scholars on the continent of Essos.

In modern history, a hundred years ago, the trade of live Heliconias spread all over Essos, such as in the market stalls in the holy city of Dothraki, Vis Dothraki.

Later, because this kind of poisonous insect killed too many people, it was impossible to guard against. The princes, nobles, Kaohs, governors, kings and other powerful figures in various places joined forces to strangle anyone who raised and sold this poisonous insect, and the spread of scorpionfish It was effectively contained, but for dark wizards and secret wizards, the Helicopter was still their favorite pet.

On the Helicopter Islands in Jade Sea, there are still people who specialize in catching this highly poisonous insect for a living. Although the Helicopter trade, although they dare not blatantly proceed, they have been trading secretly without interruption.

In Meerin, Yuankai, and Astapo, there is an underground market for secretly trading this venomous scorpiontail. The venom of the scorpion tail was refined to neutralize other toxins, and was made by wizards into many expensive poisons. It was very top-secret and was secretly popular in the upper class. It was an indispensable venom for slave owners to murder and set fire, and to travel at home.

This time, the sages of Mi Lin gathered the power of the major families and sprayed diluted venom in the water and grass on the enemy's marching road, among which the scorpion tail poison was the main one.

For the Dothraki people, detoxification is their weakness, and horseback and archery are their strengths. But precisely because of the preciousness of the scorpion tail venom, not every water source and grassland was spilled with poison on the Dothraki's marching road. This strategy is like marching and setting up an array. As long as it can make the opponent fearful and march slowly, it will achieve the purpose of the wise masters.

Once the army of more than 200,000 is stalled, the amount of food to be eaten every day is an astronomical number. Over time, no matter how powerful the warrior is, he can only withdraw his troops without food and return without success.

It is the strategic purpose of the virtuous masters to make the opponent retreat when it is difficult to withdraw and not attack Mi Lin!

0942 Chapter 2

"What is that?" Scaratz stood on the wall and looked into the distance.

He saw the banners waving, but he was not sure yet.

The ups and downs of the Milin Mountains in the distance are not obvious, but there are several small hills near the city.

Between the top of the hill and the top of the hill, Skalatz seemed to see a flag flying.

This made his heart jump.

The slave guards around him looked far away, with a skeptical expression on their faces.

The other sages were chatting in the Great Pyramid, betting how long Daenerys could not hold on leaving.

"My lord, there is a banner, it is Dothraki who is here!" said the captain of the slave guard.

Behind them, there were rows of Unsullied men wearing bronze spiked helmets, with round shields on their backs and spears in their hands, expressionless.

Scaratz watched intently, the banner flashed out from the first hill, the first side, the second side, the third side, and then the cavalry team began to appear.

"The Dothraki are here, so fast!" Scaratz was incredulous.

Daenerys' 200,000 army broke through the poisonous water and poisonous weed area so quickly? How is this possible? Two hundred thousand people, four hundred thousand horses, how did they come here smoothly? Horses are beasts, it is impossible to be so obedient, and it is impossible to cage all four hundred thousand horses with their mouths.

Because Skalatz never believed that Milin could hold it, he came to wander around the wall every day. Look at the defense, look at the military arrangements, and personally applied for the defensive command of the most important section of the city gate.

"Blow the horn and tell the whole city that the Dothraki people are coming." Scaratz regained his composure and began to order.

In terms of military command, as long as the sage master is present, all generals must obey the sage master. The status of the wise master is higher than the status and real power of all military generals. If there are two sage masters, it depends on who has the higher status and the stronger strength, and what position they hold in the Great Pyramid.

The official positions of the sages of Mi Lin are elected once a year, and votes determine their positions.

Oh oh oh! Oh oh oh! Oh oh oh oh oh-

Two short horns and one long horn sounded, wave after wave, one by one, and quickly spread throughout the city.

The sages in the Great Pyramid are all startled.

Daenerys came here so soon, but her large army broke through the poisonous water and poisonous weed area so soon? How much food, fodder and water they brought!

For 200,000 people, drinking water every day is a huge problem. In a poisoned area, which water can be drunk and which can not be drunk is a problem.

The ruling sage Yalman Daznak in the Great Pyramid quickly stood up and strode outside: "My sages, the enemy is coming. Let us get in place according to our plan and act."

"Ho!" The sage masters gained confidence and strength from Yarman's fearlessness. They stood up together, roared, and ran away from the Great Pyramid. Every sage master was assigned a place to be stationed and specific affairs.

As soon as Yarman left the Great Pyramid, his slave servants had long brought a tall yellow horse. Yarman took the reins. The slave immediately knelt down and bowed his head. Yarman stepped on his slave’s back and stepped on the horse. , With a wave of the horse whip, the horse galloped towards the gate. Behind him, a slip of family slave guards and the Unsullied ones followed.

The second to step on the horse on the back of the slave was Grazdan, the Green Saint of Meereen. She is also like a prophet of Mi Lin, possessing some magical powers that ordinary people don't possess, and she is especially proficient in poisoning. Most of the poisonous water and poisonous weeds are related to her.

Her weapon is a longbow, several quiveres, and a scimitar. Behind her, the attendants and the Unsullied Guard were the same as those of Archon Yarman.

In Milin, the strength of the Green Saint Family is the top three great sage master families among the fifteen big families.

Along the way, wherever Grazdan went, civilians bowed, slaves stopped and bowed, and soldiers stopped to salute. Grazdan's face is hidden under a half-moon-shaped face ornament made of various beautiful jade treasures. No one has seen her face except for those beautiful eyes. ,

Her dress today is not simple, it is like a shining crystal, a piece of uniform size jade crystals of various colors are woven with one-piece clothes that do not know what silk thread, which wraps her whole person in this dazzling Under the beautiful jade crystals, these crystals are the size of a fingernail with a thumb, which can very softly outline the curve of the human body, just like the locks that can be folded arbitrarily worn by some generals on Westeros. A.

Beautiful jade crystals will shine in the sun, even if there is no sunlight, these beautiful jade crystals will also shine. It is not easy to find one of this kind of crystal. It is even more exaggerated to find hundreds of these crystals, but it is a miracle to knit into a piece of clothing like a chain mail.

This shows how exaggerated the wealth of the slave owners is. Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands and millions of slaves have created a lot of wealth from generation to generation to provide the lives of these fifteen great sages.

When the Green Saint Grazdan arrived on the city wall, the vanguard of 10,000 cavalry led by Chora had arrived on the other side of the moat. The cavalry lined up one by one, as if they were in Meereen City beforehand. The territory was planned outside, and the phalanxes continued to extend with the cavalry.

Unknowingly, the murderous air filled the city wall and into Milin City.
