Chapter 177 Hall of Heroes
"The [-] troops garrisoned in the ancient oak city continued to practice, and Earl Matus Rowan insisted on resisting."

Lord Tywin stared straight ahead at the far-reaching corridor.

"Our army will go south tomorrow."

The powerful and majestic voice echoed in the golden corridor, spreading to the distance beyond the sight, and the gold on the wall gleamed, as if responding.

Casterly Rock never fell.

Joffrey is walking in its body, discussing the war with its owner, Duke Tywin alone, talking about death, money and power, conceiving battles, deals and conspiracies.

Casterly Rock had no doubt heard many words like this, and was used to it and tired of it.

fortunately.

Joffrey was young enough to retain interest and pleasure in many things.

"Grandpa, I wish you a successful trip in advance."

"The territory of the Oakheart family will be transferred to the Western Territory, the title will be stripped, and permanent consuls will be established." Joffrey talked about the distribution of the fruits of victory as a matter of course.

"Then, from your perspective, Grandpa, how do you deal with the territory and title of the Rowan family?"

Two sweet fruits.

The Oakheart family lived in the ancient city of Oak, and their territory was located on the northern coast of the Reach, bordering on the west, guarding the coastal road, and close to the Shield Islands, the high court's coastal defense line, which can be called the northern city wall of the Reach.

After taking it, the independent defense of the Reach will be disintegrated, and the western region will be able to enter Highgarden directly, and troops will approach the city, making it impossible for the Tyrell family to deal with it calmly.

The Rowan family in Golden Tree City is even more incredible.

Its fief almost covers the entire northern part of the Reach, and there are many vassals and loyal knights, not much worse than the lord Tyrell.

In addition, the Rowan family has a long history, noble lineage, and grand prestige. They also have good marriages with families such as Tyrell, Hightower, Redwyne, and Tully, and they cite each other.

Regardless of strength or fame, among the hundreds of earls in the Seven Kingdoms, the Rowan family definitely ranks in the top ten.

However, Duke Tywin answered irrelevantly: "Lady Egwene Oakheart has many sons, and Tyrell is likely to support one of them to claim the right to inherit the ancient Oak City. The royal family and the Western Territory will be placed in a dilemma."

Joffrey shook his head lightly, "There is no need to worry at all. As long as grandpa is willing to accept this gift, all kinds of troubles will be taken care of."

He smiled, "Didn't a thousand jihadists be transferred from King's Landing under your command?"

Along with the reinforcements, there were also [-] pieces of artillery chips. The chips came with runes and mana, making them easy to transport and carry.When you need to fight, just ask the warlock to fuse it with steel to make the cannon reappear.

Complete victory on the Western Front will thus be created.

"Even so," Duke Tywin was quite cautious, "The Reach will not accept it willingly. All surviving families will maintain strong vigilance or hostility, and the kingdom will still not be peaceful."

Tywin looked at Joffrey, "It's better to leave an unmarried Oakheart girl to inherit the title. We can find an excellent husband for her."

long tradition.Rule your partner's fiefdom as husband or wife and allow for a smooth transition of power.

But that didn't satisfy Joffrey.

In his plan, there should be even greater changes in the ancient oak city after the war.

Rain House City is the beginning of consuls, and Ancient Oak City is a further test. There are no titles, only officials, and the personnel are completely appointed by the royal family.

This is also the reason why the ancient oak city should be included in the management of the western region.

Confining the inevitable disputes and contradictions to the level of the Reach and the Western Territory, the royal family can stay out of the matter, and as a referee, they can pull sideways and achieve their desired goals.

Duke Tywin is unwilling to play the villain?
Still aware of the damage to the aristocratic feudal system?Resist with the duke's body instead of supporting the centralization of the royal family as an elder?

Joffrey kept walking.

"Grandpa doesn't want the western region to expand its territory? If this method is adopted, why would the ancient oak city be separated from the river bend?"

Tywin and Joffrey walked side by side.

"Western Territory and Reach Land are just titles. As long as Ancient Oak City is in our hands, we don't need to care about its nominal ownership."

"Besides," Duke Tywin said meaningfully, "aren't they all ruled by the Iron Throne?"

Joffrey sighed.

"Grandpa, you naturally understand that the territories under the Iron Throne are very different."

Joffrey made a direct comment.

"As close to the royal family as the Western Region, plus the families and fiefs that are directly loyal to the Iron Throne, these can be regarded as the loyal strength of the royal family."

"Most of the princes in the northern region, the riverlands, and the valleys are not against the royal family, and they are barely allies."

"The Reach and the Stormland are powerful challengers to the royal family. One wants the throne, and the other wants to return to the court and gain real power."

"As for Dorne, he is outsider, and he is hardly considered a prince under the throne."

Joffrey talked freely and did not shy away from it at all, as if he really only regarded Tywin as a close elder.

"Grandpa, should we let this continue?"

Joffrey looked earnestly.

"The three dragons of Aegon the Conqueror failed to conquer Dorne, nor could they convince all the Seven Kingdoms, so they had to maintain the status quo and use the princes to govern the kingdom."

"But it's different now."

"We have a more powerful and precise power than the dragon, enough to honor everyone and make everyone in the world surrender."

"If such a great opportunity is wasted, the gods will not tolerate it!"

Joffrey spoke firmly.

"Grandpa, don't limit your eyes to Casterly Rock City. The Seven Kingdoms, Essos, and the wider unknown world, our journey will never end!"

Every word speaks of his great faith.

No wonder.The light curtain of divine grace and various magical powers are undoubtedly a crushing blow to this era.How could he not be confident?

Lord Tywin made no reply.

The two continued to move forward, and every step they took on the ground paved with gold and stone could be clearly heard.

The field of vision gradually widened.

This is a vast palace.Niches carved into the rock walls display hundreds of pieces of mighty armor of various shapes, ancient or polished.

Hall of Heroes.

Behind every piece of armor, Joffrey knew, lay a Lannister knight, duke, or king who had fallen valiantly.

Boom~~~
Bursts of thunder came from the ground, it was the roar of the sea tide.

Lord Tywin stood in front of a bronze armor.

Joffrey stepped closer and looked at it. Time has left countless marks on this armor. Even with careful maintenance, the armor has long been covered with copper rust and the nails are mottled.

"Joffrey Lydon," said Lord Tywin.

"Maybe you've heard of him?"

Joffrey nodded slightly, "Thousands of years ago, the Andal knight married the only daughter of King Gerald III of the Casterly Rock, and later changed her name to Joffrey Lannister, who was crowned as Joffrey I and ruled the Kingdom of Casterly Rock. .”

Lord Tywin stroked the ancient armor lightly.

"He still has an iron armor, but it has long since disappeared with the wind. Only this bronze armor from Casterly Rock remains, with Casterly Rock."

click~
The bronze armor was taken off abruptly by Duke Tywin, and the pieces of the armor collided back and forth, almost shattering.

"Casterly Rock City would like to take this as a gift."

There were many complicated meanings in Duke Tywin's eyes, "Do you like it? Your Majesty."

Joffrey held out a hand.

The moment he touched the armor, the bronze flowed down his palm to his whole body, returning to its original state.

Joffrey I.
