Chapter 206 Some changes
“If killing the enemy is considered as keeping his oath, then he is indeed a person who keeps his promise!”
When the opposition businessmen heard the capitulationists’ unreasonable remarks, they were speechless and could only respond sarcastically.
No one on either side could convince the other, and the Thousand-Seat Palace suddenly fell into deathly silence.
Finally, the timid voice of a member of the royal family broke the silence:
“Why should we listen to the Dothraki’s declaration that we should exchange our property for our lives?”
His conscious, intelligent brain and curiosity drove him to continue asking:
“Can’t we just leave Qarth by boat?”
Upon hearing this question, the merchants who had nothing to say looked at each other in confusion, and then became increasingly angry. They turned around and glared at the royal family sitting on the throne.
“Don’t be too smart. Isn’t there anything that can make your brain spin a little bit?”
“I swear on the name of my ancestors! I really wish the kings of Ancient Qarth were here. If they hadn’t given birth to you, you wouldn’t be here at all. I curse them and hope they fall to death in a cesspool!”
“Please stay calm!”
Xaro could not stand up to stop the chaos in the palace, and then asked the royal family, or the businessmen who had the same idea and were lucky:
“We can escape. The ship is parked in the port and can set sail at any time, but where do we go? Are we still Qarthites after leaving Qarth?”
“Our alliance…”
“Don’t mention our alliance!”
Xaro waved his hand to interrupt those who wanted to answer his question, and raised his voice and said:
“There are only eternal interests, but no eternal alliances.”
“The people of Qarth who have ruined their army, left the walls of Qarth, lost the Gate to the Jade Sea, and are loaded with wealth are just lambs to be slaughtered.”
“We will not have allies, we will only have greedy enemies one after another. They will be greedier than the Dothraki, they will stare at us more fiercely, and they will pounce on us more crazily.”
“Royal family? Nobles? Look at the Targaryens, and then think about Rogar of Lys. You are the next Beggar King. All your gold, jewels and clothes will be taken away. Your brothers and sons will be chained and tortured. If you die, your sisters and daughters will be enslaved and live in the world.”
Zaro vented what he wanted to say, glanced at everyone’s eyes, and finally said solemnly:
“If you think what I said is wrong, I won’t care about you anymore. The ship is at the port. You can leave. I hope we will never meet again!”
Then, Zaro turned to the merchant standing beside him and said:
“I am willing to surrender to Kaicheng. I cannot let myself fall into a precarious situation. In order to save my life and residence, I am willing to pay two-thirds of the value of my property. I believe that the remaining property is enough for me to live a prosperous life. , or start over.”
After saying this, Xaro left the Thousand Seats Palace without hesitation, and a large group of merchants quickly followed behind him.
No one is a fool who chooses to surrender and stay in Qarth, they still have many possibilities.
For example, at the Gate of the Jade Sea, even if they have to pay taxes to the Dothraki in the future, they can still go to the Jade Sea to trade and slowly accumulate wealth.
And the consequences of leaving Qarth to wander around can be imagined.
——
The day passed quickly, and the next day the east wind blew, and there was a dark and gloomy atmosphere everywhere.
The sound of horns came from the Dothraki camp early in the morning. Scouts rushed into the camp and informed that a group of cavalry had appeared in the northwest wilderness and were heading towards Qarth. It was the great Khal who had arrived!
The continuous sound of horns continued to sound, and Harsha and Sauter dressed up and began to prepare to welcome the great Kaa.
Soon after, people could see billowing smoke and thousands of horses galloping.
Meng Ge’s army stopped on the hillside of the wasteland. Several cavalrymen rode forward and rushed towards the camp.
They reined in their horses not far from the camp, bowed their heads slightly to show respect, and then shouted loudly:
“The great Khal sent us here to send an order to Lord Harsha and Lord Sauter to meet with him!”
Before Hasha and Sauter could respond, a loud friction sound attracted everyone’s attention, and the iron-lined city gate slowly opened in front of everyone’s surprised eyes.
The royal family of Qarth walked out of the city with depressed faces, followed closely by the merchant nobles. They took off their gorgeous silks and wore Dothraki clothes, with grievances and embarrassment in their eyes.
On a battlefield surrounded by wolves, these Qarthites looked as fat as carefully raised sheep.
“follow me!”
Meng Ge’s majestic voice oscillated back and forth in the wilderness like thunder.
He took the lead and rushed down the hillside. Thousands of troops and horses rushed forward with the deafening sound of horse hooves. For a moment, the color of the world changed.
The Qarthites who were waiting to surrender began to panic, and some even retreated and tried to escape, trying to escape back into the city.
But a group of cavalry under Hasha’s command had already circled behind them and surrounded them.
Another cavalry group, led by Sauter, drove straight in and rushed into the open city gate.
The defenders of Qarth did not make any move to resist and laid down their weapons and surrendered.
This situation made the Qarth royal family and merchants more and more convinced that this was a trap. However, they had no way out and could not help but scream in fear.
At this moment, the dark clouds were swept away by the strong wind, and the light of dawn illuminated the east. Under this dazzling light, a black figure like a nightmare appeared in the distant light.
“Dragon! Dragon!”
“The dragon is coming!”
“We’re trapped, it’s all over now, we’re all going to die here.”
The people of Qarth kept wailing and fell into a moment of despair.
However, this time, the evil dragon did not spit out high-temperature flames from its mouth, but only let out bursts of earth-shattering dragon roars.
Greitn hovered in the air for a while, and when the time was right, it rushed forward and landed from the sky.
With a bang, its body fell to the ground, a large amount of dust rolled up, and everything fell into silence.
The howling east wind blew across the earth mercilessly, blowing the red smoke into the distance, and the ferocious true appearance of the black dragon finally appeared in front of everyone.
Then, a crisp sound of horse hooves slowly came from behind the black dragon. It lowered its proud head, and the great Kaa came riding a horse.
There is no tall throne on many steps, no marble-carved dome like a crown.
Even without these, all Qarthites could not help but feel a sense of awe when they saw Mongoll.
They didn’t dare to raise their heads or speak. They just listened to the horse’s hooves walking towards them until they were only one step away from them. Then, Mengge spoke.
“Hello, royal family and merchants of Qarth, I am glad to see you. I am here to receive the city and wealth that belongs to me.”
There’s a tinge of clarity in Mongo’s commanding voice that brings relief to tense moments.
At the same time, this also indicates that Dothraki’s bloody road of conquest is beginning to usher in some life.
