Game of Thrones Overlord Conquest

Chapter 68 Freeing the Slaves

The huge entrance to the Black Wall of Volantis was tightly closed. There seemed to be no one on the wall. The surroundings were extremely quiet, but there was an aura of imminent rain.

Even if tens of thousands of troops brought powerful siege weapons, no general would have any hope of conquering the black city wall. For the Valyrian Dragon Kings who advocated the construction of this military outpost, they knew very well that only the Dragon King's dragons could Invitations from outside are not accepted.

After centuries of development, the outside of the wall has long been crowded with towering, row upon row of residences and shops. However, due to the pressure of the war, the Volantis governors evacuated all the freedmen and wealthy merchants in advance.

At this time, only Volantis spearmen with green tiger stripes were stationed here.

The dazzling dawn cut through the darkness like a sword. The sergeant wearing a tiger helmet raised the flickering diamond claw guard and chanted a prayer to thank the Lord of Light for giving them the dawn. Then he smiled and asked the soldiers beside him:

"If that horse king grants you freedom, will you continue to be a tiger-robed army?"

A Tiger Robe soldier was leaning against the wall with sleepy eyes, clutching the gem necklace on his chest as if he was having a sweet dream. Another young soldier was stroking the tiger stripes on his face and said proudly:

"We are the Tiger Robe Army. What can we do if we don't become tigers? We are here to fight against the evil Dothraki."

Then, he paused the spear in his hand angrily and complained softly:

"We shouldn't waste our time guarding those lowly slaves.

The soldier who was having a sweet dream screamed as if he was suddenly frightened. He held the safe gem firmly, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a rogue smile:

"Yes! These are the shops and residences of free people and wealthy merchants. They fled back inside the wall without their lives, leaving a lot of wealth behind. If we have time, we should take the opportunity to loot again, as well as the imprisoned female slaves. hey-hey……."

Hearing these wasteful answers, the sergeant couldn't laugh anymore. Whether he was a sergeant in the Tiger Robe Army or a loyal follower of the Lord of Light, the news he had learned and the questions he had to think about were greater than those of these ordinary soldiers. need more.

The Tiger Party Governor Malachor Meguya sent them here to prepare them to face death, but he had no choice but to carry out this suicide mission dutifully.

Thinking of this, the sergeant's expression became extremely distorted, his eyes were bloodshot, full of anger and fear, and he looked like a trapped animal grinning.

Just when they were about to turn around and change the guard, the silence was suddenly broken. The deafening low sound of horse hooves echoed along the banks of the Rhoyne River like muffled thunder. The harsh and urgent bells of Volantis shook people's hearts and made the tiger robe The soldiers' eardrums ached.

Dawn gave out brilliant morning light, and countless cavalry swept across the land like a torrent. The Dothraki shouted excitedly and rushed from the northern wilderness. The sergeant's eyes fell into darkness, and the last trace in his heart His hopes also vanished.

Soon, except for the area where the Tiger Pao Army was stationed, all the nearby land was surrounded by dozens of times more enemies. At the front of the team was an extremely huge figure, with his exposed chest like pieces carved out. On the solid rock, he rode a fiery red war horse with flying long mane, extremely strong and graceful.

The sergeant knew who he was. A few months ago, there was no legend mentioning his name. But now, people are either happy or afraid, rushing to give him a famous name, calling him the stone giant from the country of Jagovin. , City Breaker, Slayer, Slave Liberator, Dothraki King.

After the troops set up their formation, Meng Ge slowly walked out on his war horse as if no one else was around. The only people following him were the flag officer and the red-robed monk Ma Qiluo. The sun and wind met him, and they stopped a few steps in front of the sergeant.

"Is any of you qualified to talk to me?" Mengge looked at the strange tiger costume of the Tiger Pavilion Army and couldn't help laughing: "Or maybe he knows me well enough to make a wise decision?" choice.”

The sergeant looked at Dothraki Khal who was as powerful as a real tiger and wanted to eat people. He was so nervous that he could not speak. However, his eyes and appearance were tightly captured by Magiro, and the red-robed monk did not move. He moved and just translated Meng Ge's words to him, but he took several steps back, as if he was worried about being attacked, and shouted in panic:

"I'm just the sergeant responsible for guarding this place, you guys can't attack me!"

"Calm down, servant of the Lord of Light." Magiro could see the fear in the other man's eyes. He stared at the sergeant with an embarrassed expression and shouted in a stern tone:

"The rabble of Malachor and his mercenary allies are hiding in the town of Velonthes on the west bank of the Rhoyne. They are trembling and will never dare to attack the great Mongo tribe. From now on, all the land east of the Rhoyne will belong to Khal Mongo. All of you, including the lands from Volantis to the Dothraki Sea, are the subjects of Khal Mongol, and you must disarm and kneel to swear allegiance to him."

Seeing the sergeant become quiet, Magiro jumped off the horse, got close to the other man's head, and said without any emotion in a voice that could be heard around him:

"Obviously, Malachor's plan has failed. I know that your life and death are not important to him, or his mission is actually to abandon you, sergeant, servant of the Lord of Light, think about it! Malachor Joe's purpose was to purge slaves who wanted to escape slavery and followers of the Lord of Light. He betrayed you mercilessly. You are also slaves, no different from those imprisoned inside. Isn't Malachor oppressing you? Is he a good master that you can't let go of? Please use your remaining wisdom and calmness to decide what to do quickly. Meng Kao doesn't like to wait, and his mood will be closely related to your fate. "

The sergeant looked at Meng Ge's movements carefully and carefully. For a moment, he didn't know how to answer. Everyone could clearly see the despair and struggle on his face.

After a while, he threw away his spear, took off his tiger helmet, and knelt on the ground. Other slave soldiers followed him to disarm and choose to surrender.

The sergeant turned his head and glanced at each tiger-robed soldier. His voice seemed to have changed a lot in an instant, and he shouted loudly:

"The twelve hundred tiger-robed troops of Volantis, and the more than 30,000 slaves imprisoned here, swear allegiance to the great slave liberator, King of the Dothraki, Khal Mongor."

Magiro has become much more honest and well-behaved since he was last sent to Volantis to perform a mission, or was expelled from the horses. He translated the sergeant's words intact.

Meng Ge understood the meaning. He rode forward and looked at the sergeant's head lying on the ground and asked:

"You are very smart. What is your name?"

"Pea, Pace." The sergeant replied in a muffled voice, his body trembling and not daring to raise his head.

Meng Ge did not ask him any more questions. He walked around the place gently with horse hooves, walked to the street, and shouted loudly to the slaves locked in the house:

"For thousands of years, the slave trade in Essos has never been interrupted. It seems that it is natural to capture men as slave labor or use women as bed prostitutes. However, people are not sheep or poultry, and they should not be bought and sold at will. , no one is willing to devote himself to others, and let himself and his children never be free for life. This is absolutely a sin. I told the gods that I am tired of slavery, and they agreed with it. From today on, from the Lorne River eastward to In the Bone Mountains, slavery is no longer legal. All people under my rule are born free. No one is allowed to engage in slave trading. Anyone who violates this will be sentenced to death. If any city-state disobeys, the two hundred thousand warriors of the Mongo tribe will be killed. , all people should fight this crime together.”

As soon as these words came out, Meng Ge knew in his heart that from now on he would be on the world stage as the leader of the slave army. From the Jade Sea to the Narrow Sea, from Essos to Westeros, all the nobles would will oppose him, malign his honor, and wail his name.

But for a barbaric Dothraki horse king, no nobles would support him. As long as he chooses to conquer, no matter whether it is sinful slaughter or benevolent and generous, the nobles and their descendants will still secretly call him a barbarian.

All he could win over were slaves, and what was the difference between freedmen and slaves? Of course, their status might be higher, but they would not open their eyes to see the world.

If the old wave doesn't go away, the new wave won't come.

After thinking for a long time, I decided to free the slaves and not engage in slavery.
