Chapter 197 Shining Crown

Chapter 195 Shining Crown

"I have made up my mind!"

Salladore Saan knelt on the ground and said with great determination, while Mungo slowly pulled out the "Bleeding Star" and put it on his shoulder.

"I hereby swear allegiance to the Dothraki and the king of this country. From now on, I will run for it without hesitation, regardless of life and death, until the destruction of the world, until death, Saan of Lys, Salladore swears."

"I, Mungo, the King of Dothraki, remember your oath, I will not forget, and I will definitely respond to your allegiance, respond to loyalty with kindness, respond to bravery with honor, and respond to betrayal with revenge."

Mungo stared at Salladore's drooping head, took back the "Bleeding Star", put it back into the sheath, stood up and spoke with a clear voice. The voice announced:

"Now, your bravery in the war will be rewarded!"

Salado raised his head instantly, his face flushed with blood boiling, and then heard the great khal say:

"You will join the blood guard and become the blood of my blood. You will serve as the captain of the army and have a fief of a thousand households in Astapor. You will live and die with me, fight side by side, and protect me from danger."

Salado accepted the title very excitedly, and immediately fell to the ground to kiss the great khal's boots, and left with satisfaction.

The extremely humble and self-humiliating expression just now shows that he has got what he wanted.

The captain is the noble lord of Dothraki, and the thousand households should be considered an earl.

Of course, this title is very different from the fief lords of other countries. It is not hereditary, and it must be subject to the strong constraints of the king and the Great Code.

But so what, nobles are nobles, and they are nobles of the most powerful country in the world.

Dothraki is not without hereditary lords. No matter if they are thousands of households or tens of thousands of households, as long as they have enough merit, they can get hereditary fiefdom.

He, Salladhor Saan, will never let the great khal down, not now and not in the future. He must earn a hereditary inheritance.

Next, Mongol met Bono again.

He walked in front of the great khal and knelt down. The two blood guards stood silently behind him.

Bono's face instantly lost color. He thought that this time he had made meritorious deeds and could return to the herd.

Now it seems that the hunter felt that his hound was useless.

Mongol took the parchment handed over by the blood guard and said in a cold tone:

"Bono, you have been an enemy of the king. Under your scimitar, the holy land of Dothraki was stained with blood. Moreover, you made an alliance with other countries without my permission. In the past, these crimes were enough to get you killed."

Bono seemed to have been hit hard. He crawled on the ground and his body trembled.

But he didn't dare to think of resistance, and even the idea of ​​escaping that just came to his mind was suppressed by him in an instant.

His fear of Mungo has penetrated into his blood and bones.

Bono took out a bronze horse-head dagger and raised it above his head with both hands respectfully.

This is a token given to him by the great khal, which has the power to mobilize the entire spy network and even part of the army.

Thinking of this, Bono's shaking hands could no longer hold the dagger, but the great khal spoke again:

"Because of your merits in the war, I forgive all your crimes. You will join the Hashashin troops, the assassination intelligence army of the Dothraki. You will serve as the commander of this team and live in Wujia Samuyi, and be loyal to the royal family for life!"

Mongol took the dagger, put it back in Bono's hands, attached the parchment appointment letter, and continued:

"Your mission is not over yet. It will always be yours and will be inherited by your descendants as long as my dynasty exists!"

After escaping death, Bono's forehead was covered with cold sweat, he gasped heavily, tightly grasped the bronze dagger, and bowed repeatedly to thank him.

Wujia Samuyi Wanhu is a good place, which can be said to be the most abundant pasture in the entire Dothraki Sea.

For all Dothraki people, it is their dream territory.

】

For Mongol, it was also a good place. Not only was it the closest to the Holy City, but it was also the most trusted Wanhu in his sight.

Wuga Samui was the Silver Sea Camp, and Mongol liked to call it the Old Camp.

There were only two kinds of Dothraki living here, the tribesmen who had followed him since he seized power on the Sarn River, and even before that, and the descendants of the warriors who died for him.

The royal family was responsible for all the food, clothing and training of those children. When they came of age, they would be selected into the Blood Guard and continue to follow him in battle.

——

Mongol stayed in Astapor for half a month, and the food supplies from Meereen also arrived.

At the same time, there were scholars, or officials, under the maester Bas Porter.

With their help in managing the city, Astapor soon changed, gradually clearing the ugly scars left by the war and regaining some vitality.

Therefore, when the Dothraki cavalry was ready and marched towards Yunkai, they were surrounded by people lining the streets to see them off, all the way from the Great Pyramid in the center of the city to the plains outside the city gate.

Their faces no longer had the confusion and fear of the unknown fate that the Dothraki had when they entered the city, but were more sincere and cheerful.

Because they were attacking their enemy Yunkai, the young people of Astapor even spontaneously organized an army, bringing their own weapons and shields to go with the army.

Looking at the Astapor people gathered at the city gate and the respectful eyes of those young people, Mongol had to sigh that this is really a bad era.

Those who do not oppress the people at will and give them food to live on are noble and kind lords in their hearts.

This time, the Dothraki attack on Yunkai is different from before.

They split into two groups, one group still marched on horseback, and the other group went north by boat, with some craftsmen and siege weapons on board.

Those Dothraki who were assigned to board the ship were as aggrieved as they could be, just like dead horses.

They were horses in the true sense, and nothing was more unacceptable to them than this.

However, they were not pioneers, and they were not the first Dothraki to go to sea by boat.

The Wanhu of Ivervellon and the Wanhu of Ober, far north of the Essos continent, had already sent nearly 20,000 warriors to Ibben Island.

Under the command of Elihu Phoenix, these warriors captured the Ibbenese city of Ibben No and were besieging the enemy's capital, Ibben Harbor.

The holy city of Vaes Dothrak has been able to receive furs, whale oil, gold and iron ore from Ibben Island.

When Elihu takes Ibben Harbor and clears the surrounding Ibben islands, these resources will continue to supply the holy city.

The craftsmen of Qohor, the wood of Ifovlon, the trade wealth of the Golden Kingdom of Yi Ti, the minerals of Ibben, the food and population of the Ober Peninsula and Slave Bay.

Mongol firmly believed that this would be the era of Dothraki dominance.

On that day, the places he saw and all the surrounding lands would become the pearls on his crown, shining like stars in the distance.

PS: Character review: Elihu Phoenix.

An elephant-cart slave of Volantis, with a wheel tattoo on his face, tall and strong, this man has infinite strength and is good at throwing, known as a "trebuchet".

His position is the Dothraki Thousand Households Commander, the leader of the Free Legion, and the commander of the Batu Camp.

He first appeared in the Unification War of the Holy Mother Mountain, leading 6,000 Batu Camp soldiers to line up and block the cavalry charge of the Holy City Alliance.

In this battle, 6,000 Batu soldiers were almost wiped out, and Elihu was seriously injured.

Before that, he also had a record of winning the battle with infantry against cavalry in the Silver Sea, which was mentioned in the narration. The commander sent by Mungo to conquer Iban was Elihu.

There may be only one update today, and there will be a video interview later.
