The Winter of Ice and Fire Is Coming

Dorn, also known as Dongn, is a huge peninsula at the southernmost tip of Westeros and one of the seven kingdoms. Its capital is Yangji City on the east coast of the kingdom.

The border of Dorn is the Dorn Sea and the Crimson Mountains in the north, the Stone Step Islands in the east, the Summer Sea in the south, and Qingting Island and the mountains in the east of the old town in the west. The Crimson Mountain is a land barrier separating Dorn from the Bay of the Rivers and the Fortress of Wind.

There are only two main official roads in the Crimson Mountains: Shilu Pass and Prince's Pass. The Prince's Pass is connected to the river bay, and the stone road, also known as the bone road, connects to the storm ground, and the exit is near the Midsummer Hall.

Dorn is the hottest area in Westeros, rocky, mountainous, arid and barren, and has the only desert on the continent.

For thousands of years, no hero has been able to conquer Dorne by force.

The first War of Conquest of Dorn took place a thousand years ago. Namelia, the heroine of the Loena people from the other side of the narrow sea, led thousands of ships in order to avoid the Valyrian dragons. Large and small ships, with more than 200,000 soldiers and people, landed in Dorn. At that time, Dorn was never unified and divided into several small countries.

The conquest war initiated by Namelia quickly failed. Whether it was a war in the desert or a war in the mountains, Namelia always lost more and less. After weighing the pros and cons, Namelia decided to marry the Martell family, the great nobleman of Donne. The successful marriage strengthened Namelia’s army. After receiving the support of her husband, the Martell family, Namelia unified Dorne, captured the seven kings of Dorne, and sent the king to the Great Wall. Night watchman.

Arya Stark’s Ice Wolf named Namelia, which comes from the worship of the heroine Namelia of Roina!

This is the first time in history that the Dornites have been unified. The Royna people have gained a firm foothold in Dorn. They brought the customs and beliefs of the Royna people. Until now, they still use the way of the Royna people. The patriarchs of the Martell family of En's have always called themselves "princes", their sons are called princes, and their daughters are called princesses.

Although the Loyna people unified Dorn, their unity was inseparable from the support of the local nobles of Dorn. Without the support of the Martell family, Namelia could not unite Dorn, and Namelia unified After one Dorn, the entire Dorn's reign, after her death, returned to the hands of the Martell family.

The full name of the Martel family is Namelos Martel.

"Namelos" means "Namelia's blood", usually they omit the front Namelos and just call it Martel. The family crest of the Martell family is a golden gun that runs through the red sun. The golden gun is the family crest of the ancient Martell. The red sun is a symbol of the Loyna people and also represents the glory of Namelia like the sky. The sun generally never goes out, and Martel’s family motto is "indomitable."

In modern times, the second war to conquer Dorne was initiated by the Targaryen family.

Three hundred years ago, Aegon Targaryen the Conqueror invaded Westeros. In the war of conquest he launched, all the Andal kings surrendered one by one, and only the Dorn refused to submit to the Dragon King.

When Aegon led the dragon and army to fight the Dorne, the Dorne used the mountains and the endless desert to refuse to confront Aegon, forcing Aegon to be unable to use the dragon. Then, the Dorn people used only the tactics of ambushing and plundering forage and grass, and quickly attacked and quickly withdrew to the desert underground or the high mountains of the Crimson Mountains. Even if Aegon rode a dragon across Dorn, he could not find Dorn's army. With food not keeping up, Aegon finally withdrew from Dorn.

When Aegon Targaryen established the Red Fort in King's Landing City to rule the other six countries, the Dornians maintained their independence.

One hundred and fifty years later, the "Young Dragon Lord" Darren I, after meticulous long-term preparations, piled up food and grass, and set out for Dorn again. This time, he used the tactics of stationing and fighting a protracted battle to successfully bring down the Dorn people who lacked food Forced out of the desert and mountains, Darren I conquered Dorne.

But it didn't take long for the Dornites to relax and immediately launched a rebellion. Year after year of rebellion, the Dornites eventually sacrificed more than 40,000 soldiers, forcing Targaryen to withdraw from Dorn again, and Targaryen's second conquest failed.

Later, Darren's successor "blessed by God" Baylor truce with Dorn. They decided to learn the strategy of Loena’s heroine Namelia-marriage.

In the end, Darren II married Princess Miriam Martel of Donne, and his sister Daenerys married Prince Marlon Martel of Donne. Therefore, Dorne did this The peaceful way was incorporated into the Seven Kingdoms.

Despite this, the Martell family of Dorn still maintained their political and military independence. They are also the only country among the seven kings that still call themselves princes and their children are called princes and princesses.

From ancient times to the present, the Dorn people have never been conquered by outside forces except for marriage.

There are three reasons why the Dornians publicly declare their independence again this time: The first is that Aegon Targaryen VI, the secret son of Princess Rega Targaryen’s wife, Princess Ilia Martel, was taken by Daenerys and Will caught in Pantos and left him in his cell.

The second is that Prince Quentin Martell sent by Prince Martell arrived in Daenerys Targaryen’s army with the purpose of contacting Daenerys Targaryen to overthrow the Baratheon family. But Prince Quentin Martell and several of his guards all died in battle, and Quentin did not leave any words to his father Prince Daolang.

Third: After Will and Daenerys reached a settlement in King's Landing City, although the Ravens notified Prince Martell, Daenerys Targaryen did not personally go to Dorn to explain to Prince Martell. For Will and the Baratheon family, the Martell family has no trust. Especially for a guy named Will, the Martell family knew nothing about him.

After feeling abandoned and despised by the great nobles of Targaryen and the other six nations, the Martell family did not hesitate, they declared de facto independence.

Whether it was the ungrateful Targaryen or the frequently twisted Baratheon, they had no illusions.

Dorn’s economy, politics, and military have always been independent, and even taxation is independent. During the three hundred years of swearing allegiance and surrender to Targaryen, Dorn paid tax to the Targaryen royal family every year. It is symbolic. Among the seven countries, Dorn has always enjoyed a completely different political status and treatment from the other six countries. When they got Ilia’s son Aegon was still alive, the people of Dorne cheered the whole country; when Aegon conquered Rees, Taloshi, and Mill, Dorn’s Red Viper Oberon began to gather the army And heavily train soldiers.

However, all political changes came faster than the summer rain. In just a few months, everything turned upside down. Aegon was taken by Daenerys. Will and Daenerys negotiated a peace, the Golden Knight. The regiment withdrew from Junlin City.

This caused Don's great hope and careful preparation to burst like beautiful soap bubbles!

0884 Chapter Mans Reid is not ashamed: Conquering Donne is easy

"No one can conquer Dorne by force!" Littlefinger Petil concluded after talking about Dorne's history.

The meeting held by the King, Prime Minister and Lady Catelyn was filled with the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms, the knights from the Tyrell family, the knights of Wind's Breath, the nobles of the valley and the west, as the lord of the north and the future of the queen. "Mother", Caitlin said: "Prince Doran Martell has a daughter, Arianne Martell, who is the heir of Doran. She is also called Princess Dorne. She is very beautiful. Everyone can consider marriage."

Barristan Selmi said: "Prince Daolang also has a son, Tristan Martel, who is 14 or 15 years old this year and can also be married."

"I think Arya Stark and Tristan Martel are very suitable." Gavin Westlin said. His daughter Jane Westerlin has married Robb and will soon have children. The Westerlin family and the Stark family are already in close relationship by marriage.

"Arya can't!" Caitlin said.

"Sansa Stark can kiss Tristan Martell," Littlefinger Petil Belish said.

The eyes of the nobles all fell on Will’s face. Everyone has heard the rumors that Will was rejected by Sansa. Sansa is the jewel of the Stark family and deserves it no matter what. Lord Will, Sansa suddenly refused to marry Lord Will after you suddenly came from Running City. Everyone didn't think it was wrong.

The eldest lady of the Stark family has such a proud capital.

Caitlin respected her daughter's ideas, and wanted to find a real nobleman for her daughter is also something nobles would like to see.

If Will really marries Sansa, many nobles will feel uncomfortable.

They think Will is not good enough for Sansa!

Will was not embarrassed, and said, "I have no objection to Sansa's pro-Trisdan Martel. As long as Sansa agrees, I will support it."

The eyes of the nobles looking at each other are meaningful.

Everyone harassed and put forward a list of marriages with the Martell family.

Behind the names of the eldest princess Arianne of the Martell family and the third prince Tristan, there are a long string of names of noble boys.

Littlefinger smiled and said: "Earl Oberon Martell has many daughters, there are eight in total, and some of them are young and beautiful. We can also consider marrying Oberon's daughter."

"His daughters are all illegitimate daughters." Count Jon Umber from the North said contemptuously.

"Sir Jon Jon is very good. He can marry any of the eight illegitimate daughters of the Red Viper." A nobleman laughed.

"There are also several beautiful women in the Mormont family, and they are suitable for Tristan Martel's age."

Will looked at the savage king Mans Reid, and he realized that Mans Reid was about to fall asleep.

For those who are not familiar with the background of the southern aristocracy, it is indeed boring to discuss whose daughter is better suited to Cui Sidan.

There was a move in Will's heart. Mans Reid was elected by him to be a royal courtier in order to restrict the danger of freedmen. It was not very good for him to sleep when he first participated in such a national government conference. Will touched Mans Reid's leg with his foot and said, "Mans Reid, what do you think?"

"There is no kingdom that cannot be conquered." Mans Reid said.

His words shut up the nobles who were discussing marriage.

Everyone even felt that the savages were savages in the jingle shirt standing behind Mans Reid. It is impossible to compare them with them. It is just that due to Lord Will and the current situation, the nobles think it is good to use the savages as artillery. material. Out of the idea of ​​being useful to savages, the nobles accepted the ‘Prime Minister’s proposal’ that Mans Reid also became a member of the royal court.

There was a rare quiet moment at the government affairs conference!

Mans Reid was a very exquisite person, and he naturally saw the surprise and contempt in the eyes of the nobles.

He said: "If we can't conquer Dorn, it’s just that we haven’t found a way to conquer Dorn. For example, if we send out swordsmen and suddenly kill Martell’s family, what will the Dornite do? They dare to attack us. Huh? There are only two ways to come out is death. Although the Dornites have never been conquered by force, the Dornites have never come out to conquer us. Why? Because they are not strong enough."

"The population of the Dorn is indeed the smallest." Littlefinger Petil said.

Caitlin's prejudice against the savage king Mans Reid is also very deep. If it were not for Lord Will, she felt that sitting with Mans Reid would be a humiliation to her reputation.

"Master Mans Reid, if you lead soldiers to fight Dorne, do you think you can take Dorne?"

"Easy!" Mans Reid said slowly.

His tone and attitude made the nobles feel too arrogant and rude.

Roland Storm, Earl of Nightsong City, located on the north side of the Crimson Mountains, said coldly: "Master Mans, if you are so sure, then please tell me your military strategy. We must respectfully listen to the lord’s explanation that this will win. The way."

"I won't say it!" Mans Reid said, "but killing the Martell family is the first step in the entire military plan. As for the later strategy, it won't work after you say it. But as long as Lord Will orders If I lead my troops, I can conquer Dorn and make the Dorn people desperate for the leadership and rule of His Majesty the King."

Yulin Tiewei Haile Hunter came from the vassal of the famous southern general Randall Tully. He couldn't help it, stood up and said, "Master Mans, I remember you are just a defeated opponent of Master Will."

"Yes, Lord Will not only defeated me, but also saved one hundred thousand lives of our free people." Mans Reid said calmly. There is no shame in him being defeated by Lord Will.

"Hey, Lord Will dare not say that you can easily win Donne, but you dare to brag about it here. There are many famous players in the south, so don't underestimate the warriors in the south."

"I never look down on anyone." Mans Reid said lightly. "There was no joking at the military meeting. I would like to make a military order. Just give me an army and the generals I want in the sea. Don, it's easy."

"You may be able to defeat Dorn, but you can't conquer the hearts of the Dorn people. As long as you leave, they will immediately rebel." Haier Hunter said.

"I'll go, they won't!" Mans Reid said lightly, "General Haier, do you dare to bet with me, if I have conquered Donne, your head loses to me. If I can't win, I will kill myself. In front of you adults."

For the time being, I owe a reward from the head of ‘this moment’, let’s talk about it first. Will make up! ^_^^_^
