Eagle of the Valley of Ice and Fire

Chapter 96 The Northern Wolf Attacks

The gates of the two fortresses of the Twins opened quietly. The gray and cold direwolf flag walked slowly through the gates and stepped onto the long bridge. The sound of the Green Fork River gurgled under the direwolf's belly.

Wolf, crossed the Green Fork River.

"Lord Attis." Robb's voice sounded from behind.

Attis did not turn around. He waited for Robb to stand beside him and then said: "Duke of Winterfell, I hope you will win. Fighting against the Lannister is not easy."

Robb nodded and looked at the northern soldiers filing out, "Tywin's army can only be blocked behind the Green Fork River. He will not be too far away from King's Landing and the king's territory. If he is rational, he should take Joffrey with him." Return to the west and defend the enemy with all your strength."

Attis remained unmoved, "But there's no lion, right? He's waiting for you with his mouth wide open."

"Yes." Robb looked at the open plains of the Riverlands in the distance, "My mother's family. You did not agree to my uncle's peace proposal."

"House Corbray, House Hunter. Countless lords of the valley are unwilling to see their lords helping Tully. I let Bronze Yohn lead the army and Roose Bolton to march to King's Landing. This is the only way I can help Tully." Tucker, help Lord Eddard." Attis did not shy away and bluntly stated the thoughts of the nobles in the Ming Valley, "Even if there is no vassal's idea, I can't just let it go with Tully."

Robb nodded slightly. His father had always valued honor. Robb knew how tarnished his mother's race had been to the honor of the Arryn family. Questioning the Duke of the Eagle's Nest's inheritance path meant questioning Attis as the canyon. The legality of the Guardian, this accusation is actually more serious than the arrest of Tyrion, the youngest son of the Lannister family.

If the Arryns wanted to go further, they might have carved up the riverlands with the lions and drank freely on Riverrun.

Robb was slightly glad that this did not happen.

"I plan to divide our troops into two groups. Roose Bolton will lead all the infantry and the valley soldiers you assigned to us to go south along the Green Fork River. I will command all the cavalry in the north to penetrate into the west and try to defeat the regicide. Capture as many Lannister prisoners as possible to prepare for the return of Sansa." Robb said, his blue eyes staring directly at Attis.

Attis looked at Robb's body that was as tall as possible and the armor hanging on his body that didn't fit properly, and said: "If you need my affirmation, my answer is that there is nothing wrong with your strategy."

He's still a boy, just like me, Attis thought.

Robb seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, "I will lead the fight, just like you did when you suppressed the rebellion in Longbow Hall."

"I didn't fight such a big battle when I came up, nor did I command so many people on the battlefield for the first time, Duke Robb." Attis pointed at the endless northern soldiers.
"They are very convinced of you, Lord Robb," Attis laughed dumbly, "Believe in your talent, the running wolf of Winterfell." He turned around and walked a few steps, suddenly stopped, turned around and said, "If Do you really want to lead the way and bring your direwolf with you, how does it sound?”

The direwolf, who was as fierce as Nymeria, crouched next to Robb, baring his sharp fangs at him, as if threatening.

"Grey Wind, his name is Gray Wind," Robb answered.

Attis nodded, "There is a little wolf girl in the Gates of the Moon. Your father entrusted her to me. When I return to the Eyrie this time, I will send her back. It's just a pity. If I could have brought Sansa with me." Take it back to the valley, and maybe you won’t have to worry too much.”

"No one can guess what will happen in the future, it's all a mystery, isn't it?" Robb smiled, holding the long sword at his waist tightly with his iron glove, looking carefully, there was a slight tremor, Attis didn't know it was Nervous, excited, or both.

"In the name of Baratheon, in the name of Lord Eddard, we have made an agreement." Attis said, and he looked at Robb.

"Of course," Robb nodded, "I have no interest in the Iron Throne. I will only launch a war in the name of Baratheon to avenge my father. After the war is over, I will lead my army back to the north. You will also open up the Twins and let the Union troops come home."

Attis nodded with satisfaction, "It seems that you remember the contents of this agreement very clearly, which is very good." "This was an agreement drafted under the witness of the old and new gods. Of course I will not forget it." Robb frowned slightly, He doesn't seem to enjoy being taught.

Attis looked at the strong wind blowing from the north. The cold-toned direwolf flag added a lot of loneliness and vicissitudes to the Twins City where the abundant sunshine spread across the river.

"At least you didn't ask me about Lord Walder's fate like that fool Edmure. He almost had his request to return to the Twins and Harrenhal written on his face." Robb spoke to me for the first time. The Twins saw Attis smiling disdainfully.

The young duke did not laugh or respond. He just stood with the young duke who was older but equally young, looking at the distant sky.

"Busy mother," Jon Grafson chewed the dried meat and looked at Lady Catelyn who was sitting not far away. "It's not easy. Duke Robb left the post-event negotiations to her, but this Poor lady just lost her husband.”

"This poor lady also caused the honor of our Duke Arryn to be trampled on, and the people of the Riverlands were ravaged by her two impulses." Lynn Corbray poked out Caitlin mercilessly. Caitlin, who was in the distance, moved her gaze towards the painful spot, apparently hearing the explanation.

"Ms. Caitlin is a guest. You must not insult the guests. You are a Canyon Knight who knows honor, Lynn!" Jon Grafson frowned slightly and looked at Lynn as a warning.

"Okay, okay," Lynn Corbray picked up a large glass of ale and drank it with a "gulp" to hide the embarrassment of being accused by Jon.

He put down the wine glass, but inadvertently noticed Jon Grafson staring blankly into the distance. Linn frowned slightly and turned around to see Roselyn following Catelyn, cleaning up with the Lady of Winterfell. Scraps left on the table.

"Hey!" Linn slapped Jon Grafson on the back, "Have you never seen a woman? Do you want to go to the surrounding towns to find a prostitute?"

"Nonsense," Jon Grafson's cheeks turned red with embarrassment. He swallowed the last piece of bread on the plate and stood up to leave. "Duke Attis is going to return to the valley, so he should think about what preparations he should make next. "

Lynn Corbray looked down at her plate, thoughtful.

Caitlin had long noticed the movement of the two Canyon Knights on the long table in the distance. She also knew that she was not welcomed by the people in the valley, and was even hated. However, she did not expect the people in the valley to like her. She only hoped that she could Use your words to impress the Lord of the Vale and get as much as you can for yourself and Robb.

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Caitlin. These knights always lose their temper after drinking and talk gossip. Duke Attis has already said it," Roselyn followed Caitlin and said softly.

"You are very attracted, miss," Caitlin noticed the eyes of everyone in the main hall looking at Roslin, "This is a good thing, but for the lonely Frey family, beauty is not a good thing, Roslin."

Roslin listened to the advice in Caitlin's words and whispered: "Don't worry, Mrs. Caitlin, Duke Attis promised me that he would let my father go."

"Promised? Where did you promise?" Caitlin looked at Roslin's innocent eyes, her heart was full of sadness, most likely in bed.
Roslin swallowed slightly, making no sound, but silently clearing the plates.

"Alas," Caitlin sighed slightly, "Duke Attis has a distinguished status, and he will marry a woman who matches his status."

"Ms. Caitlin," Roslin raised her voice slightly, "It's time for you to go to Duke Attis to discuss big things. You don't need to worry about my small things."

Caitlin was stunned for a moment, put down the plate in her hand, and walked up the steps.
