Game of Thrones: The Red Dragon Lord
Chapter 196 Situation
Time passed quietly, and Gavin had stayed in Astapor for more than a month.
Today, there are raging flames outside Astapor City, and the situation is in chaos. Those escaped slaves and bandits who were once suppressed, with the help of material assistance and the Blood Dragon Guard, were like wild beasts breaking out of their cages, growing rapidly in a short period of time.
Subsequently, they attacked one village after another with unstoppable momentum, killing the good masters inside, liberating the imprisoned slaves, and calling themselves the rebel army under the banner of "kill all the good masters and free the slaves".
Facing the butcher's knife of the rebel army, the once-good Lord's rule outside the city completely collapsed at this moment.
Many slaves who learned the news escaped and joined the resistance team, making their power snowball.
The number of slaves in the rebellion once reached 50,000, until they successfully captured a town not long ago.
After the news came back to Astapor, the good people in the city fell into extreme panic and confusion. They don't understand why the riots that were about to be extinguished are now getting more intense. Afterwards, countless benefactors flocked to the city to take refuge, making them fully understand the seriousness of the matter.
So, in the most glorious pyramid of Astapor, countless nobles and benefactors gathered here, and an emergency meeting was being held.
In the luxurious but tense palace, Krazny Monacroz, who was sitting at the head of the table, had a gloomy face. He was the ruler of Astapor, and now this slave riot occurred during his rule. He simply cannot escape responsibility.
What's more, the scale of the riots was unprecedented, and many good people suffered losses. Some ordinary philanthropists are fine, but the key is that those philanthropists with aristocratic status may need compensation from their Nakroze family.
Krazny looked around and saw that all the nobles had arrived. He stood up and said loudly: "Everyone, some of you may know the situation outside the city, and some of you may not. Now, those lowly slaves are here In just over a month, they have grown to a considerable scale. They have continuously attacked our villages, plundered supplies, and killed good people. They even broke through Shahen Town not long ago, and all the good people in the city were killed. Now these rioting slaves have threatened Astapor, and if they are not contained, the consequences will be disastrous. "
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the conference room, and everyone whispered to each other.
A young good man wearing a gorgeous robe and an arrogant face frowned and questioned: "Isn't it just a slave riot? Those slaves still have the ability to attack the city?"
Another old benevolent person responded: "It's true. All my property in Shahen Town has been lost. Besides, the town wall is not high and there is not much defense power. It is normal to break it."
The young good man asked doubtfully: "Why did I hear that the riot was suppressed before? Did my servant lie to me?"
Hearing his question, the old good master nodded worriedly and said, "That's what I heard too. It's really strange. Those slaves suddenly became different. I heard that the slave soldiers outside the city suffered heavy losses. "
At this time, a fat man with a fleshy face slammed the table and stood up.
The good people became quiet when they saw this.
The man who stood up was named Grazdanmo Urho, and he was the patriarch of the Urho family.
The Urho family and the Nacroz family he belongs to are both Ghis nobles that have been passed down for thousands of years, and the family members all have the noble title "Mo" in their names.
The two families have a high status and influence in the political system of Astapor. The two families have always taken turns to govern and manage Astapor, and Grazdan Moulho is the established next ruler. .
Grazdan stared at Krazny coldly and shouted angrily: "It's all because of your incompetence in governing! That gave these slaves an opportunity! Look at the current situation, it's a mess, and you are definitely to blame!" Another benefactor who had a good relationship with him also echoed: "Yes, you should have taken measures against these escaped slaves as soon as possible, instead of letting them grow and develop. You are doing this to us Asta." That’s irresponsible!”
Faced with these accusations, Krazny Monacroz's face became increasingly ugly, but he couldn't refute it. Finally, he suppressed his anger and said: "I have been paying attention to the movements of the escaped slaves, and I have been sending slave soldiers to encircle and suppress them. However, those slaves are very powerful and have caused us to lose more than ten groups of slave soldiers. And I didn't To think that they are developing so fast, I admit that I am responsible for this, but now is not the time to pursue this, we should discuss how to deal with it.”
As soon as Krazny finished speaking, the relatively calm head of the Aiel family stood up and said: "Everyone, calm down. Krazny is not to blame for this. There are slave riots outside Astapor every year. This is not surprising, because there will always be restless slaves, which is why we built the Punishment Square. What makes me strange is that the scale this time is really too big. It seems that all the escaped slaves suddenly rose up overnight. There were no signs. The most important thing is that all the bandits and escaped slaves started acting at the same time. We have to find out if there is any conspiracy behind this."
"I suspect there is someone behind them." Another good person said, "Otherwise they would not have been able to organize such a large team in such a short period of time. Maybe other city-states want to take the opportunity to weaken our power."
"Whether there is a conspiracy or not, we can't just sit there and watch." Kraznys said loudly, "I suggest sending out the Unsullied to let those escaped slaves have a taste of power!"
But then, his proposal was immediately opposed by everyone:
"It's just a slave uprising, there's no need to use the Unsullied."
"It takes too long to train the Unsullied, and it's not worth losing any of them. There are still so many slave soldiers."
"I only have more than a hundred Unsullied, and it would be a big loss if I lose them."
Grazdan stood up again and shouted angrily: "Krazny, don't think I don't know that you sold your Unsullied a long time ago. Your proposal is to let everyone pay for your stupidity."
Krazny heard this , his face became more and more ugly, and he loudly retorted: "That was a normal transaction, and I sold the Unsullied more than a month ago."
Grazdan sneered and said: "It's ridiculous. You sold your Unsullied. No matter how you quell this rebellion, you won't lose anything."
After a pause, he looked at everyone and said: "Although the scale of the escaped slaves is not small, they are divided into many forces, and the largest one has only 5,000 people. Moreover, these slaves have never been trained, and an army of the same size can defeat them one by one. I propose to gather the slave soldiers stationed in the northern towns and villages, so that we can form an army of 5,000 people to suppress the riot."
