The Iron Islands have a harsh climate, rugged roads, and full of black mossy rocks. The fertile land has become a luxury here, a dream but not a dream. The largest of these islands is rich in various ores, and the miners have never seen the sea in their entire lives.

People living here have a difficult life, and going to sea is the only hope. The storm on the sea is so ruthless, it can be said that death and the sea are two brothers inseparable.

People live very hard, and when they drink and have fun in the evening, they are all spitting, and the competition is worse than anyone else. Whether it is a fisherman or a pirate fighting with the sea, or a farmer who wants to dig a little crop from a crack in the stone, they are happier than poor miners. What are the miners working in the dark all day for? Iron, lead, and tin have nothing to do with them. When their lives are exhausted, they are accompanied by the bones of the previous miner.

This has created the iron man to change his destiny by going out and plundering. For thousands of years, the old way of the iron man-the old way of plundering for a living has been formed.

The tribal language of Theon Greyjoy's family is—Forced is better than hard work!

But now, the opportunity has come.

Stannis I will destroy the Tyrell family, and the Tyrell family fief will be redistributed. Tiemin’s combat effectiveness is the strongest. They are not only proficient in naval warfare, but also proficient in land warfare. The Shield Islands can only be won by iron people who are proficient in naval warfare. Even if it doesn't work, it is a great achievement to win the Shield Islands and reward them to their vassals to collect taxes.

Thinking about the prospects, Theon was full of enthusiasm.

*

"My lord, your cloak was wet by the waves." The girl said timidly beside Theon.

"Tiemin is not afraid of waves, it's nothing."

"My lord, you will take me away, won't you?"

"No, girl, I can't count the number of women I have ever done. If everyone wants to marry me, my Parker City can't hold it anymore."

"My lord, if you don't take me away, after you get off the boat, my father will kill me."

These words reminded Theon of his father: "Every father is like this, girl, you will grow up. Go and tell your father that he should be happy. It depends on the relationship between me and you. On, he will come to the Iron Islands to do business in the future, mention my name, no one dare to bully him. Tell your father to remember my name-Theon Greyjoy. I did you so much along the way Second, it’s hard for you not to get pregnant. You can give birth to the illegitimate child of the future King of the Iron Islands, which is an honour that no other woman has."

The girl didn't know what to say for a while, she looked at Theon, and Theon looked at her. She was so stupid, Theon thought to herself that she wanted to marry me as a concubine. The salt concubines were all women who were snatched back by the Tiemin when they looted outside.

"Girl, raise my illegitimate child well, maybe one day, I will come to Haijiang City to look for you."

Theon is a ship on the border city.

"I can't live in Haijiang City!"

"It's okay, I can find you, no matter where you are."

The girl was clumsy and dumb, she hadn't seen anything in the world, especially the nobles, her face and expression became stupid in Theon's eyes. So Theon pushed her away and walked straight away.

The Milahan slowly rounded a forested headland. Under the cliff full of pine trees, dozens of fishing boats are busy retrieving their nets. The merchant ships moved far away from them in a zigzag movement.

Theon walked to the bow. He saw the Portree family castle. The former fortress was made of wood and fences, but Robert Baratheon burned the castle clean with a fire. Count Chavon It was later rebuilt with stone. The small square fortress sits on a hill, and the pale green flag is embroidered with schools of silver fish.

The small castle of the Earl of Chavin protects the fishing village called King’s Port, and the dock is full of boats.

Ten years later, the traces of the war are hard to see. The villagers used old stones to build new houses and cut the turf to build the roof. A new hotel was built by the pier. Only the seven-pointed base of the church next to it was left, and there were traces of scorched black burnt down by Robert Baratheon.

Among the countless fishing masts, a merchant ship from Telosi is unloading.

In the sea outside the harbor, not far away, there are several long and narrow rows of warships parked, at least 60 ships.

Theon saw the blood moon flag of the Wenqi family, the striped black horn of the Gubler leader, and the silver sickle of the Harlow family. Theon couldn't find Uncle Euron's "Tranquility" in it, which was a long and narrow red boat. The red color of the boat was painted by Uncle Euron with human blood and glue. The tongues of the boatmen and oarsmen were all cut off by Uncle Euron. Euron didn't like the boatmen and oarsmen talking, he liked being quiet. ——That’s how the name of the Serenity came from.

Theon has three uncles, the older uncle is Euron, the second uncle is Victarion, and the younger uncle is Iren.

Theon didn't see the Tranquility. He saw his father's "Wangyang Giant Monster" in the harbor. There was a huge gray iron ram in the shape of a sea monster in front of the bow of the Giant Monster. The golden sea monster flag with an inky black background was fluttering in the wind. It was bright and bright, indicating that it was a new flag.

Theon saw that the battleships of the Iron Islands were gathering, which made him ecstatic. He came back just in time. It seemed that his father's thoughts were the same as him. The forces of the Iron Islands were assembled and he followed the call of Stannis I. Attack the shield islands of the Tyrell family, and then go up the river and rush into the hinterland of the Tyrell family.

The immortal military exploits will be created by Theon. The crown of the Iron Islands will also be carried on his head.

Beside the Ocean Giant Monster, dozens of long and narrow ships were assembled. This was the direct fleet of Park City. Thinking about the past, although his father won the crown of the Iron Islands, his subsequent campaigns were all in vain. Every time his father rebelled, he was exchanged for bloodier suppression and killing. In the end, his father ended in failure. Don't kneel and surrender again.

That humiliation and failure to accomplish anything should end, and now it’s time for Theon to take the lead-to respond to Stannis’s order to destroy the Tyrell family, this is his plan, and it will be his glory, the future The crown can only be his.

His father was old, and his second uncle Victarion who commanded the Iron Island fleet was also old. Uncle Euron is another matter. He is the only tough guy who makes Theon fear in his heart, but his "Secure" is not in the harbor, and the fleet outside does not have the shadow of the Serene. This is best, Theon is eager to try. In this way, his father saves him the time to call out vassals, and he can send troops as soon as possible.

The Milahan gradually approached the land, and Theon paced restlessly back and forth on the deck.

He scanned the shore frequently and did not see the father who came to greet him, nor did he see the steward "Smelly Mouth" Silas or even "Cleft Jaw" Dagmore. It would be great if he could see Dagmore's sordid old face again.

After Robb sent him out of Winterfell, he released several ravens back to report the letter.

Huh!

As the Milahan docked, the captain and the crew on his ship yelled, "Let’s come from the old town!" The captain shouted down, "Bring apples, oranges, wine from Qingting Island, Midsummer Islands. A beautiful feather cloak, a mile lace, mirrors used by the ladies, and a pair of wooden harps made in the old town. They are genuine!" The boat creaked down and pressed onto the dock with a bang. "I'm also bringing back your Young Chairman En-sama! Theon Greyjoy! Hurry up and welcome your prince!"

The workers on the dock were still busy loading and unloading goods, and the merchants on the shore looked blank. They stared at Theon Greyjoy. No one cheered for him, and no one came up to greet him.

They don't even know him!

Theon was furious. He was their prince, the future king here, and these guys looked at him dumbly, like one by one idiot.

After the merchants glanced at Theon Greyjoy, they continued to direct the boatmen to be busy, but the workers, no one stopped and glanced over here.

Theon's face suddenly felt hot and painful!

He stuffed a golden dragon coin into the captain's hand: "Ask your person to carry my luggage down." He strode off the ship board. "Innkeeper!" he said loudly, "I want a horse!"

"Yes, my lord," the man replied, but didn't even bow.

Theon resisted the urge to pierce the stupid guy's stomach with his sword: "I'm going to Park City."

He regretted that he should wear that coat with the golden sea monster family crest embroidered on his chest. Yes, golden sea monsters, these guys only know golden sea monsters.

A sailor took his yew longbow and quiver, and it was the captain's daughter who carried him in his clothes. "My lord," she flushed her eyes. He took the pocket, and she hugged him in a gesture of presence, in front of her own father!

Theon was worried, he really wanted to kick her belly. On one side of his body, he avoided the girl. Until this time, he did not know the girl's name: "Thank you." He said perfunctorily.

"Please," she said, "My lord, I really love you."

What a stupid guy who fell in love with me?

Theon said, "I have to go!" He took the package, put a bow and arrow on his back, turned on his horse, and ran towards Park City. If it is slow, he won't be able to reach Park City when it gets dark.

night.

Inside Pike Castle.

Father turned his back to Theon, facing the blazing fireplace.

The sea breeze outside the window roars like a ghost.

Theon stood behind his father, the atmosphere depressed.

He wanted to speak, but his father raised his hand to stop him from speaking.

I don’t know how long I have been standing like this. Theon couldn’t stand anymore. He walked over and sat down. He just got on the stool, and his father said, "Did I let you sit?"

Theon froze in amazement.

He came back in a hurry, for the honor and safety of the family, what did he do wrong?

Since returning home, even the servants in the house have dared to resist him. The two female slaves who arranged his bedroom dared to push him to the ground, when he reached into their skirts.

This is simply the opposite.

He is the prince of Pike Island. Isn't the slave girl just going to go? What happened to this world?

Theon drew his sword to teach the two female slaves who dared to resist him. Father's butler came in: "Master Theon, if you kill the female slave at home as soon as you come back, Lord Baron will be unhappy."

Theon thrust the sword back bitterly: "Get out." He shouted to the butler.

This housekeeper was no longer the butler Sigs, whom Theon was familiar with, who died five years ago. This is a stranger he doesn't know at all.

My mother no longer lives in Pike City. She and her aunt moved away from Pike Island and live on Harlow Island. She has a severe cough, and the climate of Harlow Island is not as bad as Pike Island.

My sister is also not at home. It is said that she is summoning her vassals and ordering them to quickly gather in the King’s Port in a long ship to prepare for war.

Theon hadn't seen his sister for ten years. He tried to think about it, but he couldn't remember the impression of his sister. But these are not important, the important thing is that the father has to listen to his plan, and the fleet has to be directed by him.

During the meal, Theon Greyjoy realized that he was with the servants and servants in the family, and his father was not in sight. Later, Theon learned that his father and his new housekeeper were eating in the main castle restaurant, instead of going out. .

Theon was so angry that he smashed the bowl in his hand and overturned the long table.

Until now, standing by his father's fireplace, Theon was still hungry.

*

Theon looked at his father's side. It was a face as stern as a black rock, his hair almost falling out, and his eyes sharp as a sea eagle. The fingers of his father's hands were as dry as old vines, and the veins on the back of his hands were tangled under the skin.

Theon slowly stood up and took two steps back.

The father continued to warm the fire silently, as if his son did not exist at all.

"I let the raven come back to report, and there is more than one." Theon said. He decided to break the embarrassing silence. He did nothing wrong, he came back to lead the family to the top.

His heart was burning with anger, to know that he did not eat tonight. Even if he was the adopted son of Ed Stark's family, Theon had not eaten with the slave laborers.

In Winterfell's main fort restaurant, there is a place for him at all times.

"What is the iron man's motto?" His father's voice was hoarse and harsh, but with a majesty that made Theon fearful.

Theon was taken aback!

"The dead do not die!" He finally remembered.

"What you believe in is a tree now." Father slowly turned his head back and stared at him, his eyes like a sharp razor.

"I am a Tiemin, not a native of the North." Theon felt humiliated. "The deceased will not die. They will rise again, and the momentum will be even more intense."

Father looked at him coldly: "Are you Stark or Greyjoy?"

"Greyjoy!" Theon straightened his chest.

Father stared at him for a long time, turned his head to continue roasting, and whispered: "Well, I will give you a boat so that you can follow your sister Asha to attack the northern border and take down Winterfell. "

Theon could hardly believe his ears: "Father, what are you talking about? Are you crazy? We should attack the Tyrell family. Didn't you read the secret letter I ordered the butler to give you? Stannis The first generation destroyed the Tyrell family, and the next step is to destroy us. He will burn Pike City to ashes and hang all the Greyjoys."

Baron snorted coldly: "Stannis? Hey, his own life is no longer guaranteed. When we successfully take the North Territory, he is already a dead man who can't die anymore. The crown on my head is for himself It’s not something Stannis allowed me to wear. If you don’t dare to fight, the butler will send you to Harlow tomorrow. You can live with your mother. You are only worthy of some faint old women. People live together. Look at what clothes you wear, look at the jewelry on your neck, have you paid iron money?"
