Chapter 708 Ambush

"What's the situation?" Ed looked at Herrenburg in front of him, and was a little speechless. The situation was too strange. They had arrived in front of Herrenburg now, but Herrenburg was still quiet. Ed stood here and could not even see the soldiers on Herrenburg.

"I'll go and have a look." Ye Junwen said directly.

"No, this is too strange, there may be a trap." Ed said immediately, "I'll send troops to see it."

Ed decided to try a feint attack, so he summoned a small army to attack Herenburg. However, after waiting for a while, until the troops rushed to the bottom of Herenburg, they still did not see the enemy's attack. Ed thought for a while and ordered the small army to launch a siege directly.

So the ladder to attack the city was quickly raised, and the small army was only a few hundred people. The attack speed was of course very slow. However, until the ladder was raised, there was still no response in the city.

There was nothing to say, the troops here crawled into the city directly, and Ed and the others outside were also waiting anxiously for the situation. The whole scene was very strange, but after waiting for a while, the gate of Herrenburg was opened directly, and the person who opened the gate was from the team responsible for the attack.

"This... sir... there seems to be no one inside." The person in charge of the team was Jon Amber from the Amber family in the north. To be honest, he thought he would have been dead for a lifetime this time, but he didn't expect it to be so easy, and he felt it was a bit incredible.

"Father, the Lannister family won't run away, right?" said Robb next to him.

"You can't be careless," Ed said after thinking, "Enter the city and check the situation in the city to see if there are any ambushers, or...fire objects or something."

"What my father meant was that they could burn the city?" Robb asked.

"You can't be careless, Tywin is not a simple character," Ed said.

Ed was very careful and still sent a small group of troops into the city for inspection. But soon, the troops here came back, and the result of the inspection was that... there was really no one, and there were no fire objects or anything like that. There were still many people in the city. According to their statement, about two days ago, the Lannister's troops left one by one.

"Really left?" Ed was really surprised. Tywin actually retreated, he didn't expect it.

"I guess I received the news from Long, so I ran away." Ye Junwen didn't say anything before. After all, he didn't know the situation of war in this world, so he also looked at Ed's operations. The actual situation was not much different from that in another world.

"Well..." Ed thought for a while, then suddenly said, "If it were to run, which direction would it be?"

"Western border, or king's land." said Robb next to him.

"If it was King's Landing, it would be bad." Ed said anxiously, "They have been away for two days, and we must chase after him immediately."

"I always think you..." Ye Junwen looked at Ed who was a little anxious, and suddenly felt that this guy was obviously in a position to fall into a trap. In fact, the strategy was to guide the enemy to do what he wanted, and now Ed's situation felt like he was going to be guided. Ye Junwen felt that if he was Tywin, he would definitely do this if he knew Ed's personality.

Thinking of this, Ye Junwen said directly: "Forget it, I'm too lazy to wait. I'll go after it first, come here yourself."

After saying that, Ye Junwen waved his hand, and a white light flashed beside him. Ye Junwen rode the dragon and flew away. The people who stayed behind were stunned. What was going on? When did the dragon come back? They haven't seen the dragon these days. Many people want to ask directly what's going on, but what was going on just now? Why did Ye Junwen appear when the dragon waved his hand? I can't understand it.

Of course Ed was also very strange. He wanted to ask Ye Junwen what was going on before. The history books did not say that the dragon could appear in front of him in an instant. However, it seemed that it was not the time to discuss this. After thinking about it, Ed quickly said: "Set out immediately, hurry up!"

There was no problem with the army in the north. They didn't marches in a hurry before, and they were still very physically strong, so they quickly followed Ye Junwen's direction.

As a master of tricks, Ye Junwen felt very keen. Yes, Tywin really used tricks at this time, but what he didn't expect was that Tywin's trick was not Ed, but Ye Junwen.

First of all, Tywin had already received news from Junlin City very early. After all, Junlin was controlled by the Lannister family before, so of course he could get first-hand news. Ye Junwen, who had emerged from nowhere, also knew the news that his daughter and grandson were dead, and even he knew the news that Ye Junwen took Ed to the Northern Army.

When he learned the news, Tywin immediately realized what he had to do, because he already knew Ye Junwen's purpose. He led the Northern Army southward, and the first one to destroy was his troops. Tywin didn't feel that he could defend Herenberg, and the Northern Army itself was not weak. Now there are Dragon Knights to help. If they really defended it, it would be too difficult.

Tywin had never seen real dragons, but he had read a lot of history books. The most famous thing was naturally the conqueror Aegon unified the seven countries. It should be noted that Aegon unified the country and the first attack was Herrenburg. At that time, Aegon led an army of 1,000 people. How could he capture Herrenburg? He rode the dragon and circled around Herrenburg. Herrenburg turned into a sea of ​​fire, and all the people inside were burned to death. So do you think that Tywin could make such a mistake again?

Tywin had no experience with dragons, so he could only learn from ancient books. The first thing to note is that you should not defend the city when fighting against dragons. The castle is useless at all. All those who guard the castle will be burned to ashes without exception. Secondly, don’t fight against dragons on the plains, because the wars that occurred in the open area will be burned out without exception.

Of course Tywin also knew that dragons were not invincible. First of all, it was said before that five dragons were killed by peasant uprisings in the Blood Dragon War. Secondly, there were precedents for defeating dragons in the war, that is, during the Aegon period, when attacking Dorn, Aegon's sister and wife Renes was defeated in the war, the dragon died, and she disappeared.

Thinking of this, Tywin also thought of a solution. The first thing was to give up Herrenburg and march southward. After seeing that Herrenburg was no one, the Northern Army probably thought that they had already headed towards Junlin. They would naturally rush over. After all, Junlin doesn't have many troops now, and it would be a good idea if they lose.

Then, Tywin set up an ambush halfway, and the target of his ambush was Ye Junwen, because Long flew over quickly. Tywin felt that Ye Junwen had just ascended the throne, but in the face of a lot of rebellions, he was so anxious to go to the northern military camp so anxiously, so he must be very anxious. So when he knew that his troops were advancing towards the north, there were several major chances that he would catch up alone, and this was the best time to deal with Long.

So Tywin chose a place to ambush Ye Junwen. This place is not too far from Herrenburg, but it will take half a day for the troops to come. In other words, if Ye Junwen comes alone, he will not be able to wait for reinforcements. The terrain here is relatively rugged, and the hilly terrain will not let the dragon fire burn, which will also help them hide their ambush.

The main plan is to first send an army to "marches" in obvious places, which allows the dragon knights who are looking for them to discover first, and then the other party will definitely come down to attack them. Tywin prepared a large number of long-range troops to ambush next to him. Once the other party comes down, they will attack immediately, trying to solve Ye Junwen's biggest trouble one at a time.

It can be said that Tywin's plan is still good, at least the current development is exactly the same as he thought, but Ye Junwen is not thinking about whether there are ambushing or not, but doesn't care at all. According to his thinking in another world, how could someone ambush a dragon? Common sense in another world is that he just runs away when he sees a dragon, and no one will really design how to deal with them.

Of course, Tywin is also very anxious, and the current situation is not good either. If Ye Junwen and the others are not fooled, the battle situation will be very unstable. So Tywin controls his emotions while looking north of the sky, waiting for the result.

Until a figure appeared in the sky, Tywin suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. It was his plan. At this moment, Tywin felt that the balance of victory was tilted towards him. But after all, he was also a veteran, so he immediately calmed down his mind and let his troops ambush and wait for the other party to come down.

As expected, the dragon above quickly discovered their seduction troops and began to lower the height. It seemed that they were coming to attack them. Originally, these soldiers were also very excited. Are they going to become the legendary dragon slayer? However, as the dragon fell, their expressions slowly turned into fear. Yes, the dragon was too big. As the whereabouts fell, it became bigger and bigger in front of them, and it became bigger and bigger, beyond their imagination. They did know that what they were going to deal with today might be a dragon, but they didn't expect it to be such a huge thing.

Tywin was also a little stunned. He didn't expect Ye Junwen's giant dragon to be so huge. Although the letter said that the dragon was huge, it was completely different from the one I saw in the letter. He had seen the bones of the black death god Belorian in King's Landing City before. The one in front of him might be bigger than that one.

However, what surprised him even more was that the dragon did not directly attack the seduction troops in front of him, but landed directly on the ground. Tywin was still stunned, and a voice sounded: "Hey, come out."
