Chapter 193
Looking at Storm's End in front of them, everyone was completely stunned.

"how is this possible!"

"It must be dazzled! Tell me, what did you see?"

"This is Storm's End..."

The cavalry reined in their horses, holding the reins tightly in their hands, and couldn't help but question them.

The eyes did not deceive them.

The big banner on the top of the city is no longer just a crowned stag, but a roaring golden lion and crowned stag with their heads held high.

King Joffrey's banner!

What does this mean?People have to realize the terrible truth: Storm's End has been breached!

Storm's End, which is incomparably strong, has never fallen, is still unscathed in any storm, and can persist in the face of the siege of a hundred thousand troops, has been breached!

How did you do it?
Earl Randall Tarly looked around on his horse, his face serious and puzzled, "There is no trace of battle, and the so-called barracks are gone. What happened?"

Renly Baratheon frowned.

Now this situation is completely beyond his expectations, Joffrey entered Storm's End?

It never occurred to Renly that this was a possibility.

You know, all the preparations he made were based on the fact that Joffrey was still outside the city.

According to the plan, in order to launch the surprise attack smoothly and catch Joffrey by surprise, Renly personally led [-] cavalry to rush towards Storm's End at full speed, preparing to end the war as soon as possible.

In order to paralyze his opponents and make sure everything was safe, he didn't even send scouts to scout for information, just to prevent Joffrey from being aware of the danger.

After all, the sea route cannot be blocked, even if only Joffrey is let go, it would be a huge loss.

For this purpose the army marched quietly and swiftly, never running far in advance, but only guarding the perimeter, lest anyone report to Joffrey.

It was quiet until last night.

but now……

Renly looked at his Storm's End and those flags from a distance, and the depression and anger in his heart almost exploded.

My Storm's End!
mine!

How dare you plant such a disgraceful banner on the walls of Storm's End, Joffrey? !Storm's End does not belong to lions! !

Renly couldn't help his shortness of breath as his anger flared up.

Earl Randall Tarly quickly reminded: "Your Majesty, the most urgent task is to appease the soldiers and build a camp."

"We have come here from a long distance, and we are really powerless to fight against the castle. It is better to settle down first, and make plans after inquiring about the specific situation."

Renly let out a long breath. "That's right. Lord Randyll, you can do it."

Randyll Tarly was ordered to go.

The other generals around looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing whether to approach and speak now, or to stay away quietly.

Renly smiled with feigned relief, "Looks like we'll have to spend the night outside the city tonight. Go to work, everyone, and make sure you settle down before sunset."

Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and asked King Renly for instructions to leave.

Watching all the princes leave, Ren Li's gaze returned to his Storm's End Castle. Although his mood eased slightly, he was even more gloomy.

Storm's End.How exactly?
Is it because of Joffrey's weird powers and spells?
Doesn't Storm's End also have ancient magic?Joffrey's power is real, but Storm's End's is a lie?

Renly couldn't help but bewildered.

At this time, under the orders of the generals, 2 people gradually moved into action.

Part of the cavalry remained vigilant, monitoring every move of the castle.Some troops went around one by one, looking for villages and towns, collecting intelligence and supplies.Some soldiers began to set up camp and prepare meals.

Storm's End remained quiet.

Looking at it, Renly couldn't help but drove his horse, and circled the castle far away, but still didn't find anything unusual.

The walls, the sea, the land, the rocks, everything is exactly the same as before.

The barracks that Sir Cortanay reported was already an open space, with only signs of ordinary personnel activities, but no traces of battle.

It looked as though Joffrey's men had moved into Storm's End unhindered.

But how is this possible?

Sir Cortnay and the guards of Storm's End are not just ignorant puppets, how could they be unresponsive!

but.

Maybe worse than a puppet now.

Renley felt distressed.

With Joffrey's temperament, Ser Cortnay must have been killed.

The people in the city probably will not be spared either.

And Edric Storm.The identity of this little guy is too dazzling for Joffrey.Even if he hadn't been killed, life would have been worse than death.

Renly would not accept it, but there was nothing he could do.

The plan had been to flank Joffrey with Storm's End, but now Storm's End was an enemy stronghold.

Killing Joffrey was nearly impossible.

Storm's End with 5000 men is enough to withstand an army of tens of thousands, let alone the 5000 men who captured Storm's End.Even if the castle is captured again, the sea ship can take Joffrey away.

So, what's the next step?
"Attention the rebels! Attention the rebels!" The loud voices suddenly echoed across the field, causing the horses to neigh in confusion.

Renly looked up.

The voice continued: "To show the mercy and tolerance of the gods, His Majesty will send envoys to conduct peace negotiations. At noon, Sir Cortnay Penrose will leave the city alone, and the rebels must ensure his safety..."

Renly's eyes widened for a moment.

Cortanay!Is it Cortana? ! !How could he be an emissary? ? !
The surprise in the hearts of the princes under Renly's command was not too much. Cortnay Penrose is the acting castellan of Storm's End. Now it sounds like...

"Traitor! Despicable villain! Do you have the face to see His Majesty again?" Earl Florent scolded sharply.

In the temporary camp, Renly and a group of princes formed a circle, seriously examining Cortnay Penrose standing in the middle.

Renly had calmed down quite a bit. Until now, he still didn't believe that Sir Cortnay would really betray.

"Ser, explain your purpose," said Renly.

Cortanay Penrose's eyes were full of sadness and pain, "His Majesty the King ordered me to come and surrender."

It is so!

"If you are willing to give up your resistance and withdraw your accusations and groundless demands, His Majesty will forgive your capital crime and exile you to the Great Wall as a night watchman. Your lords will also be pardoned."

Cortnay Penrose sighed mournfully, "Failure is inevitable, please think twice, Lord Renly."

The crowd could no longer hold back their anger and contempt.

"You said 'Lord Renly'?"

"Your Majesty Renly has treated you so favorably! It's only been a few days and you've changed your name to 'My Lord'? Chameleon!"

"Say! Why did you give Storm's End to Joffrey!"

Renly pulled himself together secretly.

Cortana really didn't want to answer.But the light curtain had already given a hint, so he could only follow through: "Storm's End was not given to me. Your Majesty is favored by the gods, and his mighty power is enough to control wood and stone."

Renly's heart sank.

Kotnai calmly narrated, "After a week of siege, a small boat dived into the waterway along the pier under the cliff. Afterwards, the city wall parted the road by itself, and His Majesty's army was able to enter the city smoothly."

Everyone was silent, imagining the scene and how they could deal with it.

It dawned on Renly.

It turns out that the power to build a battleship can also do this kind of thing!Why is there a need to besiege the city?

Um?siege!

Renly's heart trembled, so why did he want to besiege the city! ?

Cortana let out a long sigh.

"Lord Renly, you shouldn't have come."
