Valyrian ruins,
Countless abandoned exiles looked at the mountains of food, their eyes filled with unconcealable greed.
But even if no one dares to step forward recklessly,
Stand in front of the crowd,
Lu Yan spread his hands and said, "Now, everyone who surrenders to me will be given favors! This is your reward."
Lu Yan took out a large amount of prepared food from the storage space and handed it to the leader of Gray Scale.
Compared to these worthless foods, what he needs has already been obtained.
There is not much Valyrian steel accumulated, only a set of armor, a spear and a greatsword can be crafted
But even so, this is something that many families dare not expect in this life.
Because that's Valyrian steel!
After staying in the ruins of Valyria for a long time, Lu Yan originally planned to find a dragon egg.
But unfortunately, he did not find the "confirmed" dragon egg.
There was only one thing that looked like an oval stone, covered with scales.
Looking at it, Lu Yan once thought it was a dragon egg.
But no matter what he does, this "dragon egg" is just like a fossil and can be used as a hidden weapon to hit people.
After leaving the ruins of Valyria in despair, Lu Yan said that next time, he must find his own dragon egg.
Even if it is a collection!
After crossing the Sea of Smoke, the ship returned to the Land of Storms a month later,
In Flame Castle, Lu Yan asked Lasoka about the territory.
After it became clear that there was no "thorn in the head", Lu Yan couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
He's been out for so long, why don't two idiots jump out and ask him to clean up?
Seeing Lu Yan's expression of trying to deal with someone, Lasoka's face was speechless.
What lord is he loyal to? Why do you always want to attack your subordinates?
However, although Lu Yan does not talk about martial ethics, he is still very considerate towards the knights who are loyal to him.
If the fiefdom is too small, Lu Yan will take the initiative to help it build it, and will also let him join his business plan.
The territorial knights under his command are looking for "jobs". He is probably the only one in the entire Westeros continent.
It is precisely because of this that the Howard family is extremely united.
There is no sordidness in other territories,
After all, those who want to cause trouble and those who are making trouble have been buried.
Lords: lonely and scared, hiding in the corner and shivering.
Four years later, in the year 281 of the Westerosi calendar,
The martial arts tournament that has been going on for many years has begun. It is precisely because of this martial arts tournament that the battle for the winner has begun.
Flame Castle, the extremely luxurious hall,
Lu Yan was drinking vodka leisurely.
Over the years, he has never participated in a martial arts tournament, not because he was afraid, but because he didn't want to watch a group of novices pecking each other.
But this year is different. He needs to go to Robert to "loyalty".
This is a famous scene. I wonder if Robert will jump three feet high when he sees Lyanna Stark accepting the "Crown of Love and Beauty"!
"Sedro, how are your preparations going?"
Passing the wine glass to the maid aside, Lu Yan looked down at the man eating steak.
"Everything is ready, Lord Marquis, we can lead the cavalry to attack at any time!"
Hearing Lu Yan's words, Cedro quickly wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth and said,
Nodding indifferently, Lu Yan didn't say anything.
Now, with the help of a large number of golden dragons and the suppression of refugees over the years, the Howard family has prepared a cavalry force of tens of thousands.
These are not civilians who picked up a spear and went to the battlefield, but after years of training,
But even so, the Howard family is almost financially exhausted.
Three years ago, Lu Yan borrowed a loan of one million gold dragons from the Iron Bank.
As for repayment
What a joke, I, Lu, borrowed money based on my ability, why should I pay it back?
Not convinced? Come on, get me!
For Lu Yan who failed to repay his debts and tried to become a deadbeat, the Iron Bank did not fail to respond. It sent a fleet of Braavos and about 3,000 mercenaries to collect the arrears.
Unfortunately, after the other party came ashore, he was buried by Lu Yan on the river bank.
Even the fleet was resold to Qingting Island by Lu Biman.
After this incident, Tiejinku felt like it had been slapped in the face.
It's not that they have seen scoundrels before, but this is the first time they have seen such a shameless person.
It was impossible to fight, and Lu Yan didn't make a living on the sea.
As for finding other mercenaries, such as the Golden Regiment and the Second Son Regiment, well, they were all rejected.
After all, in Westeros, who doesn’t know that the current Marquis Howard is a madman?
A ruthless man who can overwhelm and intimidate a group of three thousand mercenaries on his own.
Although the rumors are relatively "mythical", the Iron Bank is obviously at its wits end. Even the Faceless Men from the Black and White Institute have sent out several waves, and now they are still sitting in the Flame Castle, living leisurely. Are you angry?
The Black and White Institute is also angry, but there is nothing we can do!
The Faceless Men are powerful, with all kinds of assassination and poisoning methods unmatched by anyone, but in the face of Lu Yan who has experienced several worlds,
Before he even got close, he could smell the "smell" on his body.
Forget it, destroy it, just owe it what you owe, at worst, ignore this bastard from now on.
Since then, the Howard family has been officially blacklisted by the Iron Bank.
Lu Yan also expressed his helplessness about this. He originally wanted to borrow 30 million, but he only got 1 million, and it ended like this.
Although he made a lot of money selling the fleet and grabbed two thousand mercenaries, Lu Yan felt that he should be able to perform better.
However, he couldn't afford to play with the Iron Bank and turned the table over.
Financial stress is the biggest dilemma facing the Howard family today.
If there is no war next year, Lu Yan will decide to seize the continent of Essos.
After all, he is still hanging around in Westeros, and he wants to give everyone some face, so let’s start with Essos!
When the "scandal" between Lu Yan and the Braavos Iron Bank was making a fuss, Westeros didn't stop either.
The mad king is getting more and more crazy, and his mind is starting to go crazy.
Fortunately, Prince Rhaegar Targaryen is normal.
But to Lu Yan, Rhaegar Targaryen was the craziest one.
He angered Robert and the Starks, and his father burned the Duke and heir of the Stark family to death.
The two fathers and sons worked in tandem, irritating four regions and cutting off all escape routes.
If you don't die now, it will be Lu Yan's turn to be confused!
After years of development, the Iron Wall Regiment finally attracted enough manpower, totaling 800 people.
This time we went to Harrenhal City, escorted by them, a total of two hundred people,
Although Lu Yan is very brave and not afraid of death, he can't guard against the Mad King!
Imagine you, a normal person, talking about logic with a madman? Are you confused? Is he a normal person?
In order to protect his own safety, Lu Yan decided to play it safe.
Half a month later, a neat cavalry team entered Harrenhal City.
Having already purchased property near Harrenhal, Lu Yan and his men moved into a luxurious manor.
A military tent has been set up in the backyard, and people from the Iron Wall Regiment are setting up grills.
Put the cattle and sheep that have been slaughtered long ago,
Sitting in the garden with a vast backyard, Lu Yan looked into the distance, then turned around and said, "Is your Black and White Courtyard so persistent?"
"All men are mortal!"
Without answering Lu Yan's words, the other party calmly pulled out the dagger and stabbed Lu Yan.
"Uh-huh!"
A breeze blew by, and the faceless man fell to the ground,
Lu Yan calmly retracted his hand and put the dagger back on his waist.
Standing up, Lu Yan glanced at the faceless man without any compassion in his eyes.
