Chapter 357 356 Battle of the city defense

  Outside the city of Meereen, the blood-red eyes of hundreds of Yunkai'i looking at the sky appeared in the west and disappeared into the eastern horizon.

   Now the sky has returned to normal, leaving only the afterimage of a blood-red arc.

  The fierce sun was as hot as ever, but it couldn't dispel the chill in everyone's hearts.

  The terrifying **** eyes, the destructive gaze made the entire battlefield silent.

   "The Ghiscari gods are watching!" someone shouted.

  More people responded.

  The battlefield where the pause button had just been pressed resumed its hustle and bustle again, but no one cared about the city in front of them anymore.

  The terrifying scene lingered in the hearts of the soldiers, making them fear, trembling, uneasy, and finally turned into fanaticism.

  Countless people dropped their weapons, knelt down on the ground, bowed to the sky, and prayed loudly.

  On a high ground behind the battlefield, the twenty-four sages of Yunkai looked at each other, with bewildered emotions in their eyes.

  In the end, everyone turned to the Supreme Commander of the Yunkai Army—Grand Marshal Zacca zo Eraz.

  Gozaka twisted his body on the horse. The **** eyes in the sky just now made him pee his pants, and now he was sticky and uncomfortable.

   "Should I... withdraw the troops first?" He tentatively asked, feeling a little apprehensive about the terrible scene just now.

  Most of the sages nodded in agreement, but a mercenary outside shouted:

   "How can we withdraw troops at this time?"

  Gozaka frowned subconsciously, seeing that the person speaking was Prince Ragged, the leader of the Windblowing Group, he said patiently:

   "The soldiers were frightened, and they continued to attack at this time..."

   "Why are the Ghisians frightened by their own gods?" The Ragged Prince asked back, "It should be those foreigners who should be afraid."

  Gozaka thought deeply.

  A sage lord said: "How do you know that those things just now are the gods of Ghiscari?"

"Isn't it obvious?" The Prince in Ragged Clothes took it for granted, "This is Slaver's Bay, the territory of the Ghiscari gods, seeing outsiders invading, especially outsiders with dragons, he Of course they will perform miracles. Maybe all the dragons in the city have died in that **** light at this time."

   "That's right! It's the divine punishment from the Ghiscari gods!" Gozaka finally came to his senses.

  Although he himself was not sure whether the scene just now was the arrival of the Ghiscari gods, but it was enough to fool those low-level soldiers.

   "The gods are protecting us! It's time to demand blood from the Valyrians! Order the entire army to launch a general attack!"

"yes!"

  The Ragged Prince heaved a sigh of relief, he was really worried that these Yunkai people chose to withdraw their troops.

  Of course, he doesn't really care about the ownership of Meereen, but as the head of a mercenary group, he must pay attention to his interests.

  The Windblown has invested heavily in this war. He not only arranged spies in the city, but also bought a group of Meereen nobles with a lot of money. If the Yunkai'i withdraw their troops, his investment will be in vain.

   Mercenaries don't talk about honor, but they will never damage their own interests.

  The order to attack was passed down layer by layer.

   Sure enough, as Gozaka and others expected, the morale of the Yunkai army began to rise rapidly. After learning that they were protected by the gods, the Ghisians fell into a frenzy of revenge.

  At this moment, they seemed to be the avenging messengers of the ancient Ghis Empire, roaring and rushing towards the tall city wall of Meereen, vowing to wash away the shame of the country's destruction with the blood of the dragon.

  The rhythm of the battlefield suddenly became extremely **** and cruel.

  Yunkai people gathered like ants and rushed towards the city wall. Arrows and spears flew in the air like locusts, and scimitars and war hammers gleamed coldly in the sun.

  The shouts of killing were deafening, but it was difficult to cover up the screams of the wounded soldiers.

  Flags of various colors fluttered in the wind, but the most conspicuous color was the glaring blood red that kept flowing.

  Six huge trebuchets lined up in a rough crescent shape, surrounding the eastern half of Meereen, constantly throwing stones.

  However, what they threw out were not boulders, but corpses.

  Boom!

  A corpse fell on the top of the city, hitting the front of the watchtower, and the splashed brains and flesh fell like a torrential rain.

   Severed limbs fell to Ser Jorah Mormont's feet in a sticky pool of rotting flesh.

   "They must be stopped!" Skalatz held his breath and took a few steps back.

He was originally a Meereen secondary noble. After Daenerys captured Meereen, he was the first group of local nobles who offered their loyalty. In order to show his determination to abandon Ghis culture, he shaved off the most The distinctive hairstyle leaves only a smooth bald head, which is why he is called "Master with a Round Head".

  Daenerys organized the slaves who revolted locally in Meereen and established the Beast Face Army, and this "Master Round Head" was appointed as the commander.

   "Otherwise the morale of the army will collapse." Skalatz looked at the expressionless Unsullied, and added, "My army will collapse."

  The commander of the Unsullied, Gray Worm, glanced at Skaraz indifferently, and said:

   "Your Majesty only ordered us to guard the city gate, so the Unsullied will not go out to fight."

  Skalatz pointed to the remains of the corpse on the ground, suppressing anger and panic in his tone:

"These corpses will bring a plague of blood! The morale of the army will also drop rapidly. Believe me, the Beast Face Army is not the Unsullied. They still have an instinctive fear of death and disease. If this continues, my people will probably die." Run away!"

   "The Unsullied cannot run." Gray Worm replied lightly.

  Because the Unsullied have no brains! Skalatz slandered in his heart, but there was nothing he could do about the other party.

  The Unsullied of Meereen only obeys the Queen's orders, and they don't know how to adapt. He can't persuade the other party at all.

   While speaking, Skalatz saw six fresh corpses dancing into the sky outside the city.

  But at this moment, a huge shadow suddenly passed over the head.

"dragon!"

   Someone shouted loudly.

  Skalatz saw a body engulfed in flames, and another body was bounced off by white dragon wings, and fell into the middle of several Yunkai horsemen.

   "It's Caesar's white dragon!" There were more and more cheers from the top of the city.

  Bailong's target was obviously the six trebuchets. He swooped down, and a bright red line of fire gushed out from its mouth, instantly igniting one of the trebuchets.

  The Yunkai soldiers operating the trebuchets fled frantically, and some tried to put out the fire, but the fire continued to burn.

   Even from such a distance, Skalatz seemed to be able to smell the burnt smell, which was the smell of victory.

   There were hurried footsteps behind him, and when he turned around, he saw Ser Jorah Mormont running up in armor and holding a sword, saying:

   "Her Majesty has ordered that the beast-faced army continue to guard the city gate, and the Unsullied will attack with me!"

   "Yes!" Gray Worm decisively accepted.

  After the troops lined up in the tall shadow of the iron-paneled city gate, Ser Jorah turned his horse's head, looked at the dozens of Dothraki cavalry behind him, and said:

   "Rush out later, remember to follow me! Kill as many nobles as possible, but don't blindly attack Yunkai's army formation."

   The Dothraki nodded in confusion.

  Jorah didn't say much, such a small number of steppe cavalry were not the main force of this attack, but the Unsullied.

   But it takes time for the Unsullied to get out of the city and form their formation, so his task is to buy them enough time to set up their shields and deploy their spears.

   "May the gods watch over us." Jorah took a deep breath and said loudly, "Send orders to attack!"

  Boom!

  The third trebuchet is engulfed by dragonfire.

  Samwell rode the white dragon and passed quickly over the heads of the panicked Yunkai soldiers.

   After failing to find Viserion, he did not entangle with the Iron Fleet, but returned to Meereen to help the Unsullied defend the city.

  Arrows and spears were shot one after another, but they were unable to cause substantial damage to Cleopatra at all.

The Yunkai people obviously didn't think about how to deal with the dragon. Maybe they thought that they would encounter Daenerys's three young dragons in Meereen at most, rather than Cleopatra, who were considered adults in terms of size dragon.

  After no large-scale shooting weapons such as bed crossbows were found in the Yunkai army formation, Samwell knew that the end of this war was doomed.

  Bailong has no natural enemies at all here, and can roam freely.

This was a fatal blow to the morale of the Yunkai army, and because the Yunkai commander previously declared that the vision of the sky was a divine punishment from the Ghiscari gods in order to boost morale, but now, the dragon did not die. under punishment.

   The panic of the Yunkai people can be imagined.

   Every time the giant dragon flew over a battlefield, it was full of fleeing Yunkai soldiers. Even with its current dragon flame power, it couldn't burn many people to death.

   More enemies are scared away.

  When the last trebuchet was also destroyed by Dragon Flame, the east gate slowly opened, and a group of Dothraki cavalry rushed out led by an armored knight.

  Even if there were not many people, they rushed out with the momentum of thousands of troops.

  The Yunkai'i fled in all directions, ignoring the Unsullied who were marching out of the city.

  Wait until the Unsullied are safely lined up outside the city, Samwell will know that the overall situation has been settled.
