Game of Thrones Overlord Conquest - #189 - Chapter 191 Yunkai Alliance
Chapter 189 Yunkai Alliance
The fog, as deep as the sea, gradually dissipated, and the Ghiscari Mountains, towering to the sky, slowly emerged from the shadows.
Suddenly, people would think that in an instant, the gods just pulled out a majestic mountain with their divine power.
While the sailors were marveling at the wonders in front of them, the sea turned from black to pure blue under the dawn.
In the morning breeze, the white sails covering the entire sea fluttered in the wind, and the clear sound of the horn floated in all directions with the breeze.
“We’re in Astapor!”
“It’s the Volantis fleet, the Volantis are coming! Our allies are coming!”
…
The Yunkai Alliance camp was built in a unique way. The camp was divided into eight districts. Each district had an independent entrance and a different flag. They represented an ally, but these districts were not of the same size. They represented each of them. Allied forces.
The area facing the main entrance of Astapor’s main city wall is Yunkai, which is also the largest area. It is stationed with a standing army of 5,000 Yunkai slaves, consisting of 2,000 crossbowmen and slingers, and 3,000 infantry.
Of course, this is not all its strength here, otherwise it would not be able to secure the top spot.
Yunkai is the smallest city among the three city-states of Slaver’s Bay, but it is closest to Astapor and is the most threatened, so it spends a lot of money.
In this war, Yunkai hired every mercenary company it could find: the Second Sons, the Stormcrows, the Lances, and the Cats.
On the left and right sides of the Yunkai camp are Meereen and Qarth respectively.
The three city-states in Slaver’s Bay share the same blood, and the slave owners are also related by marriage.
At the beginning of the war, Meereen was the first to actively respond to Yunkai’s call and sent three thousand elite spearmen to Yunkai’s command.
Originally, it could send more troops, but on the way to Yunkai, the Astapor refugees received by Meereen suddenly rioted.
Forced by desperation, the Great Lord of Meereen could only recall his army to safeguard his own safety.
Qarth is also a slave trader and hates the Dothraki.
It was very powerful. The merchant guild in the city alone had thousands of ships, so it easily dispatched one hundred and thirty giant ships.
Unfortunately, the commander of Qarth and a member of the royal family, Mathos Malaroven, was killed in the battle at Kesai Pass, and at the same time, most of the soldiers were lost.
Apart from the fleet which was now intact, only three thousand soldiers remained in the camp, consisting of one thousand camel cavalry and two thousand infantry.
Volantis is the latest to arrive among the eight allies. It is relatively far away and its internal political struggles are also complicated.
The annual consul election lasts for ten days, and the Tiger Party and the Elephant Party will do whatever it takes to win the election.
This year was particularly fierce, and it took two months for the Tiger Party to win the competition with the Elephant Party, decide to declare war on the Dothraki, and join the Yunkai Alliance.
Volantis had already assembled 300 ships, and this fleet was commanded by Belicio Stangani, the new Tiger Party leader who inherited the political legacy of Malachor Meguya.
But just before the fleet was about to set off, a Dothraki cavalry force of about 10,000 people suddenly appeared in the upper reaches of the Rhoyne River, causing the already sensitive Volantis to feel extremely frightened.
In the end, Volantis only sent a fleet of one hundred ships.
This fleet carried 3,000 tiger robe troops and 2,000 Fengchui regiment mercenaries.
With the support of Belicio Stangani, the secret agreement between the Tattered Prince and the previous Tiger leader, Malacho Meguia, remains in effect.
Therefore, the prince agreed to lead the troops to fight in Slaver’s Bay.
Most of the city-states on the Essos continent are located along the coast. They prefer maritime trade and have stronger naval capabilities.
In this way, due to too many ships staying in the bay, Belicio of Volantis and the Tattered Prince did not land on land until mid-day and entered the camp of the Yunkai coalition.
Along the way, they saw the flags of other allies. In addition to those well-known city-states, there were also New Ghis, Troos, Elea, and Mataris.
Especially in New Gis, the Iron Legion only had a thousand men, but their quality and momentum surprised the Tattered Prince.
Although the prince has never seen the legendary “Invincible Legion” of the Gujis Empire, he seems to have seen the glorious history of that army from the Iron Legion.
Moreover, there are a hundred armed elephants in the New Gis camp, which makes Belicio feel very familiar. If the distance is not too far, he will bring some elephants to join the battle.
Located at Troos on the northwest shore of Slaver’s Bay, the slingers are the best in Essos. They throw lead balls instead of stones, which can cause great damage to the human body.
Their soldiers are not many in number, and they do not look like warriors, but more like athletes participating in sports games.
The two city-states of Elea and Mataris were adjacent to each other, and their camps were clustered together.
However, Belicio and the Tattered Prince just glanced at it quietly and did not take another look.
Mataris is considered an ominous place, or the “city of monsters,” and its people are said to be born with deformities.
The two of them just looked at it and saw a two-headed man from the camp, which shocked them.
As for Elia, although it is not as notorious as Mataris, it happens to be adjacent to Mataris.
Seeing this, Belicio and the Tattered Prince quickened their pace and walked towards Yunkai’s camp.
They were going to meet the supreme commander of the coalition forces first, when the gate of the camp slowly opened.
“Your Excellency Bellicio! Your Excellency the Prince!”
“The arrival of Volantis makes me realize that victory is indeed close!”
Two burly slaves carried an old man who looked like a human-shaped sour plum and led a group of people with different characteristics out of the camp. The old man’s voice was very strong and powerful, and it sounded consistent with his appearance, age, and current situation. No match at all.
“Victory is indeed close at hand!”
Belicio and the Tattered Prince quickly stepped forward to respond and said hello very politely:
“Dear General Marshal, Your Excellency Yakhaz of the Yazak family, hello!”
The old man, who was being carried by slaves, had a hunched back, wrinkles on his face, and all his teeth. From the outside, he looked like a cultural relic that had survived from ancient times.
But he is indeed the supreme military commander of the Yunkai Alliance, Grand Marshal Yakhaz Zo Yazak.
Belicio and the Tattered Prince had heard of this old man, whose authority in Yunkai was higher than that of other slave owners, and the title of Grand Marshal was given to him by mercenaries and other allied armies.
However, they doubted the old man’s leadership and command abilities.
On the way here, Bellicio and the Tattered Prince observed and calculated that there were four hundred naval ships and nearly thirty thousand soldiers.
There are so many troops, but Astapor still stands there.
