After Liu Qian's order, Jelena quickly boarded twenty rowing warships with 5,000 pirates in leather armor and well-trained pirates, and 400 dragon spirit guards dressed in Valyrian armor.
The oars pierced the lead-gray water, cut through the waves, and punched on Broken Spear Island.
The rugged coastline of Broken Spear Island is revealed in the morning mist.
Without any resistance, the warship violently crashed into the pebble shoal outside the village of Spearhandle.
The pirates were like sharks smelling blood, howling, pushing and jumping off the side of the ship, and the cold saltwater was soaked to their knees.
Jelena took the lead, her steps steady, her cloak rustling in the humid sea breeze.
The village of Spearhandle was defenseless.
The defenders of Teloxi numbered only four or five hundred, most of whom were still immersed in the smell of last night's drunkenness or the gentle countryside of prostitutes.
The piercing sound of horns, the roar of pirates, and the sonorous sound of clashing iron armor awakened them from their dreams.
A few disheveled soldiers hurriedly emerged from the barracks or sentry towers, their rusty spears still trembling.
The battle broke out in an instant and ended in a much shorter time.
The dragon spirit guard was like a tide, efficiently annihilating sporadic resistance points.
Their movements are precise and ruthless, with Valyrian steel swords drawing deadly arcs in the morning light, each swing accompanied by a shattering bone or a dying muffled grunt.
The pirates, like loose beasts, roared and rushed into the narrow streets and low houses of the village, smashing open doors with their knives and fists, dragging the terrified soldiers out of their beds.
The cries, curses, and begging for mercy mixed with the harsh sound of weapons clashing broke the tranquility of the village.
Jelena stood at the entrance of the village, her eyes like ice, scanning the chaotic battlefield.
She saw a Telosi officer trying to organize resistance, and as soon as she raised her sword, she was pierced in the throat by a dragon spirit guard, blood splattering on the muddy floor.
"Surrender! Drop your weapon! "
The roar of pirates rang out everywhere.
The surviving Telosi soldiers were seized by fear, dropped their weapons, and fell to their knees with their hands held high.
The few who tried to flee to the port or the dense forest were quickly caught up by the pirates' bows and arrows and throwing axes, screaming and falling down.
In less than an hour, all the dust settled.
The smell of blood mixed with the sea smell filled the humid air.
Hundreds of ashen-faced Telosi prisoners were strung together with ropes like animals to be slaughtered.
The village of Spearhandle, a small island stronghold that thrived on smuggling and the black market, was mercilessly looted, along with the warehouses full of silk and spices, the merchant inns full of food and wine, and even the golden dragons and silver deer hidden in the soldiers' barracks.
Jerina's gaze swept over the captives and piled up supplies, and there was no wave in her dark purple eyes.
She gave the first order: "Tie up the prisoners, escort them to the ship, and send them back to the Bloodstone Island dungeon." "
Then, she turned to the black market merchants who were poking their heads and eyes flickering in the chaos, and announced loudly: "We have taken over the village of Spearhandle. "
At dawn on the fourth day, Liu Qian led three hundred dragon spirit guards to set foot on the pebble beach of Spear Handle Village.
After Jelena sends soldiers to escort the captives back to Bloodstone Island and sets out to restore the chaotic black market in the village.
Order in the village of the spear handle was restored extremely quickly.
This lair for smugglers is once again noisy under Jelena's rectification.
The black market in Spearhandle Village is mainly aimed at smuggling merchants, and it is full of all kinds of smuggled goods.
Furs and wood from the north, red wine from Dorne, blankets from Mill... There is a dazzling array of goods from all over the world.
Since there is no tax officer's exploitation, the goods here are very cheap.
Liu Qian stepped into Helina's temporary command post, a stone house filled with sea and dust.
"My lord." Jelena's voice was steady.
He nodded, looked at Jelena and said, "Is there any movement on Telossi's side?" "
Her purple eyes were slightly condensed: "The patrol ship returned, the direction of the main island was dead, and the port only saw the shadow of merchant ships, but no warships gathered." "
Liu Qian was puzzled: "We have all hit their doorstep, how can the Teloxi people endure it?" "
He thought that the Telosi fleet would pour out like a wasp that had been stabbed in the nest, so he rushed to the rescue.
This abnormal silence is more disturbing than the drums of war.
What are these Telosians with their nostrils up to the sky planning?
Wrong!
A thought stuck into his mind.
It is very likely that the Telosi people have colluded with the G7.
Jon Arryn's old falcon in the valley is well versed in strategy and will never strike recklessly before finding out the truth.
It takes time to assemble a large army, transport grain, and prepare warships.
He will definitely use this gap to win over the forces on the other side of the Shijie Islands who are also standing opposite Liu Qian.
Tylosi and Reese.
However, Telosi and Reese have long had a grudge over trade frictions in recent decades, and it is really difficult to persuade Tellosi and Reese to reconcile and send troops against Liu Qian.
Therefore, Jon Arryn is most likely to send messengers to Telosi for help.
Telosi is in the Shijie Islands, and they are more eager to eradicate Liu Qian, and the Talosi people rely more on the trade routes of the Shijie Islands than Reese.
It is very likely that the Seven Kingdoms and Telosi will reach an agreement to send troops together.
If so, it is in Liu Qian's arms.
Liu Qian said categorically: "Jelena, you continue to guard Broken Spear Island, and try to make the momentum as louder as possible, so that Tai Luoxi thinks that we are stationed here." "
A trace of confusion flashed across Jerina's purple eyes, but she didn't say a word, and simply replied, "Obey orders, my lord." "
After Liu Qian finished giving these orders, he returned to Bloodstone Island.
Just returned to Bloodstone Island, Rollo, Howl, and Mezzo came together.
Mezzo took a step forward and spoke slowly: "My lord, according to the news from the people of King's Landing, the Prime Minister has sent the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Petyr Berisi, to Telosi to discuss cooperation with the Maharaja of Telosi. "
Liu Qian said secretly in his heart, sure enough.
He nodded, his face motionless: "How is the preparation of the Seven Kingdoms?" "
Mezzo continued: "The Seven Kingdoms have begun to mobilize for war, and the king has just returned to King's Landing after participating in the competition in Twilight Valley City, and during the banquet, the king claimed to pacify the Stone Steps Islands like the Targaryens and the Iron Islands. "
"Even if he comes, he'd better come, otherwise I can't think of anything more worthy of bragging than capturing the king of the Seven Kingdoms..."
Luo Luo took a sip, a trace of old hatred burning in his eyes.
Liu Qian's eyes were burning: "What about their fleet?" How is the assembly? How many people are in the army? "
Mezzo said sincerely: "Redwin's fleet is ready to go, the royal fleet is being repaired, and I heard that the prime minister also ordered the Iron Islands to contribute, and the Iron Islands sent thirty long ships to participate in the war..."
Liu Qian couldn't help but frown and said, "How can Tiemin be so obedient?" ..."
Mezzo explained: "It was the Prime Minister who wrote a letter threatening the Iron Islands, and this war would send Duke Eddard Stark, the guardian of the North, to King's Landing with his adopted son Theon Greyjoy..."
Liu Qian was stunned, he almost forgot about this little sea monster.
Although Baron is very hard-mouthed, he is a rat thrower in the face of hostage threats after all, and he does not dare to fight against the Iron Throne at this time.
But it doesn't matter much.
As long as it is a boat, it can be burned.
As long as it is a person, it will lose its combat effectiveness if it falls into the water.
Mei Zuo looked at Liu Qian's thoughtful expression and continued: "As for the strength of the troops, this is a bit difficult to inquire, there are several versions of the news from King's Landing."
But in general, the prime minister summoned the princes of the four borders of the seven kingdoms, the Guardian of the Four Realms, the Dorn Territory, the Stormlands and the Riverlands in the name of the king.
However, how these princes will treat this war needs to be observed for a while. "
Liu Qian was very satisfied with Mezzo's performance, but to be honest, Mezzo Maher's intelligence capabilities greatly exceeded his expectations.
And his thinking was very clear, in King's Landing, he inserted intelligence officers into the pile of wealthy businessmen of the Antlers.
King's Landing wealthy businessmen like to talk privately about what happened in the Red Keep, especially the war.
After all, war has a great impact on their business.
However, they are not Liu Qian, and they are clear about the intrigues between various families in Westeros.
From Liu Qian's point of view, these princes may participate in the war, but they will definitely not go all out.
Because only he knows how many careerists are hidden in this land of sunset.
Even, most of the careerists of the Seven Kingdoms will see this expedition to the Shijie Islands as an opportunity, and may use this opportunity to break the original political and military balance of the Seven Kingdoms and lay the groundwork for the later chaos.
Liu Qian didn't want to be someone else's pawn.
He wants to use this opportunity to lay some foundations for the deer chase in Westeros.
