Game of Thrones Overlord Conquest - #198 - Chapter 200 March forward

Chapter 198 March forward

After Meng Ge unified the Dothraki Sea, in addition to the holy city of Vaes Dothraki, the grassland was divided into five pastoral areas of 10,000 households on the left and right sides.

Weiss Eve, located in the southeast corner of the grassland, belongs to Wanhu on the left.

Its leader is Harsha, nicknamed “Lingbi”. He is both a rising star and a veteran with outstanding achievements on the battlefield.

The former is because Harsha was still an ordinary Dothraki Roaring Warrior when Mongo fought Drogo in Volantis.

The latter said that Harsha participated in all the battles in the process of Dothraki unification, made countless achievements, and was named the leader of ten thousand households by Mengge.

During this trip south, he was appointed commander of the left army, responsible for harassing Qarth and forcing the enemy to stop sending troops to support the Yunkai coalition.

There is another key reason behind this important appointment.

That is, the Wes Eve Ten Thousand Houses is closest to Qarth. It can also be said that the Ten Thousand Houses itself was built for defense or attack on Qarth.

On the east side of Vaes Eve is the sand road of the Bone Mountains. The land this road leads to is called the Red Wasteland, and Qarth is in the southeast of the wasteland.

The Red Wasteland is a barren land on the continent of Essos.

As the name suggests, its land is red, dry and lifeless, full of wind-worn hilly fields and dry river beds.

The Dothraki are no strangers to this wasteland. It was once a very fertile land.

Except for the natural erosion of the great sand sea in the north, they have contributed a lot to what it is now.

During the Century of Blood, the Dothraki sacked much of the region, leaving behind cities in ruins.

The largest of them is called Ves Tororo, which means “City of Bones.”

Its original name is no longer known, but it may have been one of the city-states founded by the Qarthites.

The tall ancient wall surrounding the city has become a broken wall, surrounded by rusty iron guns with skeletons hanging on the tips of the guns, some of which still look relatively fresh.

This is because Weiss Tororo has now become Harsha’s garrison camp.

He was stationed here and kept sending cavalry to invade the southeast, plundering the surrounding areas and trading caravans of Qarth. The newly hung heads all belonged to Qarth merchants or nobles.

The sky was as scarlet as if stained with blood, and the Weeping Blood Star was shining in the east, falling towards the Jade Sea.

Hasha looked at the blood-red stars that were stronger than the moon, and said to Sauter beside him:

“We all thought that the Weeping Blood Star had disappeared. We didn’t expect to see it here again. Now, I have another interpretation of the omen it brings.”

“It heralded the beginning of the war and the bloody storm. When it appeared in the Dothraki Sea, we fought the Unification War. Here it is, a symbol of our upcoming conquest of Qarth.”

Sauter was also observing the star, but he had a different opinion and slowly said:

“War is a continuation of politics. It has a purpose and has nothing to do with omens.”

“A war based only on a prophecy and without benefits is meaningless and unjust.”

“Just like you said about the Dothraki Unification War, the difference between the great Khal and the Dosh Kalim is this.”

“The purpose of the great Kaa is peace, to resolve the centuries-old disputes between tribes that have been fighting each other. As for Doshkarin, their actions are meaningless.”

With that said, the two slowly returned to Weiss Tororo and entered the tent set up on the broken wall of the ruins.

Sauter held up an oil lamp, pointed at the sheepskin map hanging in the tent, and continued:

“The Dothraki attacked Iban for the rich minerals there, and went south to Slaver’s Bay because of our differences with the free city-states on the slavery system. The ultimate goal is for the population.”

“As for Qarth, it is an ally of Slaver’s Bay and our enemy.”

“In addition, Qarth itself is our competitor and our mortal enemy in business and trade.”

“It’s not obvious yet, and the people of Qarth have not yet realized this, but the interests involved are enough for the two most powerful countries in the world to launch a full-scale war.”

At this point, Harsha had completely understood. He stared at Qarth on the map, his eyes slowly shifted to the right, and he said:

“It’s trade with Yi Di. Qarth controls the Gate to the Jade Sea. We control the three routes out of the Skeleton Mountains. These are the only two trade routes in the world.”

“That’s right.” Sauter nodded and said in a decisive tone:

“I have reached an agreement with the Emperor of the Golden Celestial Empire and the General of Trade Town on behalf of the great Kaa. This will inevitably infringe on the interests of Qarth. War is inevitable, and the winner can get unimaginable wealth.”

“This is really exciting!”

Hasha poured two glasses of mead with emotion, handed one of them to Sauter, and then raised the glass:

“This battle must be won, for the sake of the great Khal and Dothraki!”

At this moment, two Dothraki cavalry entered the camp with a messenger.

The messenger holds a wooden tube about eight or nine inches long in both hands. Although the wooden tube is simple in appearance, it is hung with a beautiful black gold ribbon. It also depicts cavalry galloping on horseback with flying hooves. The whole picture looks very urgent. .

After Hasha and Sauter saw the wooden tube, their faces instantly became serious and solemn.

The black ribbon inlaid with gold thread symbolizes the highest level in Dothraki, which means that the messenger is sent by the great Khal, and his letter is contained in the wooden tube.

The different running forms of the cavalry galloping represent the urgency and importance of this letter.

There is no doubt that the messenger standing in front of the two people has brought the most urgent and important letter to the great Kaa.

Hasha did not dare to delay. As the commander-in-chief of the army, he took the wooden tube with both hands.

Seeing that the wax seal on it was intact, he unscrewed it, took out a roll of parchment, unfolded it and read it.

As time passed slowly, Hasha’s face gradually relaxed, and finally turned into excitement, and he laughed and said:

“This is the great Khal’s declaration of victory!”

“The Dothraki army defeated the Yunkai coalition forces in Astapor, and Slaver’s Bay now belongs to the Dothraki.”

“Let all warriors who can mount horses come to me. I will pass on this joy to everyone. I will let them spread this news throughout the red wasteland and make the enemy fearful.”

Soon, the ruins of Vaes Tororo were crowded with Dothraki cavalry, and next to them were the female warriors who were watching. They came from Baya Sabhad on the Sand Road, and were three descendants of Heilkoron. One of the fortress cities, now owned by the Dothraki.

Harsha and Sauter walked out of the camp in armor, followed closely by the messenger. Everyone fell silent and looked at their commander.

Hasha stood up straight and announced with a strong voice:

“Warriors, please pay attention, this is the messenger of the great Kaa! He brings us important news.”

“The king of the steppe kingdom, the commander-in-chief of the Dothraki army, Mongo, the descendant of the horse god, our great Khal has won. He defeated the Yunkai coalition and conquered Slaver’s Bay!”

All the warriors raised their scimitars and spears high and shouted in unison:

“Great Khal, the Dothraki are victorious!”

After everyone had vented their excitement, Hasha raised the parchment in his hand and shouted:

“There is also good news for you.”

“Great Khal, my king is coming to Weiss Tororo and will fight alongside us!”

“He ordered us to march to Qarth!”
