Chapter 39 Big bait and small bait
"Tyrion, you'd better give me a suitable reason." Lord Tywin was obviously unhappy with his son's repeated interruptions.
"Here, you said it." He pushed Cole out, "Now the people are here."
Tywin sat down at the table and said, "Really? I heard that you want to marry a Lannister."
Cole's face was full of question marks, what does this mean? He looked at Tyrion with doubts, so what did the little boy say to Lord Tywin?
"Ahem~ Dad, you'd better listen to Cole's suggestions first."
He turned his golden eyes and asked, "Then what does this 'Lord of Fire' have?"
Cole nodded and walked to the map, "Lord Lannister, please look here."
He pointed at Riverrun City, "Here you can directly cross the Green Fork River, then cross the Trident River, and directly reach the hinterland of the Riverlands. If Stark's cavalry comes from here, they can support Riverrun City, or they can attack
Our rear."
"You're saying that Old Frey from Luanhe City will help the Stark boy, but he doesn't have the guts."
"Then please look here." Cole pointed to another place on the map, which is White Harbor.
Lord Tywin's face finally showed confusion, but he concealed it very well.
Cole continued, "The ships here can directly reach the Arryn Valley, and the messengers from the north can set off from here. As soon as the Blood Gate is opened, the knights of the valley will go straight down to our rear. Sir, you should know,
The person in charge of the Arryn Valley now is a relative of the Stark family."
"At that time, the Lannister family's scouts will come and report." Lord Tywin said rudely. How could he not guard against the valley?
"If this is what you want to say, then I think you should go down and have a good rest. There will be a fierce battle to be fought next, and I have high hopes for you."
"No, Lord Lannister." Cole shook his head, "I know you want to use us as bait to fish out the main force of the Stark family, but what I want to say is that the tribesmen, Tyrion, and even
The magic mountain is nothing more than bait."
"The real big bait is your eldest son, Sir James."
He continued, "The army from the north is coming down from the north. Even if they are defeated, they can still retreat to the Neck and hold on to the Gulf of Carlin. Even if we have ten times the force there, we can't take it down."
"And where is the Lannister army?" Cole asked.
"If any army appears in the south, it will kill all our retreats. Whether it is Stark's cavalry, or the cavalry of Arryn Valley, or even Stannis's army, as long as it supports Riverrun,
, with the internal and external cooperation, the besieged Sir James will definitely be defeated. By then we will be fighting the northern army and will not be able to rush to rescue, and there is still a Green Fork blocking the way."
"Forgive me for the offence, my lord. Sometimes people can't trust their own consciousness too much. Maybe you felt it in King's Landing ten years ago."
Tyrion couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Oops." Not many people dared to say that in front of Tywin.
Sure enough, Lord Tywin's eyes turned cold.
"You said that people from the north would come from Luanhe City, and that the armies of Arryn Valley and Stannis would rush to aid Riverrun. How could you be so sure?"
"The Vale of Arryn originally stood on the same line as the North, and Lord Stannis, with his strategic vision, also knows where his opponents are."
Of course, the two at the back are all bullshit by Cole to deceive Tywin. One of them just wants to be a turtle, and the other can't recruit many people at all. The northern cavalry is bound to cross Luanhe City.
The Young Wolf Lord is very courageous.
"Someone told me that in war, all factors should be considered properly and all hidden dangers should be resolved. Otherwise, the victory or defeat can only be left to the gods."
These words finally made Tywin's eyes flicker. "You have some confidence."
"Nine points." Cole said confidently, leaving one point for the gods.
A smile appeared on Tywin Lannister's face, and this smile immediately shocked Tyrion. He saw something, and his father smiled, as if he had never seen him since he remembered it.
"Take your people, and I will ask Kevan to lead a thousand cavalry to support Riverrun. If there is an attack, you will take command and hold until I can bring reinforcements.
I will give you the fief, the title, and the woman."
Cole was stunned, and so was Tyrion.
"Dad, why don't you let me go with Cole?" Tyrion asked.
Tywin just glanced at him and said, "Take your friends down. I still need to rest."
When he returned to the camp, Cole was still a little confused. He just wanted to remind Tywin to prevent the Frey family from defecting to the north, and to refresh his sense of presence.
The battle between Tywin's army and the old skinned "Roose Bolton" is unsurprisingly a must-win battle. As long as Cole performs bravely in this battle and leads his firemen to kill the enemy bravely, then he will join Tywin's army.
Even if you can't bear it, you can still accompany Tyrion to King's Landing.
After defeating the Young Wolf Lord's plan, no one can stop the Lannister army. Waiting for Tywin to return to King's Landing and show his performance, the territory and title will be there. Bronn did the same thing anyway. And Cole is confident
You can only do better than him.
But are you serious about asking three thousand men to stop the Young Wolf Lord? Oh, I forgot, there are also one thousand cavalry from Kevan Lannister.
Didn't I surrender to Robb Stark because of his superior military talent? Although he didn't even look at him, it was undeniable that Robb's ability to lead troops was even more impressive than the veteran Lord Tywin.
Even worse, let alone Cole, who was leading troops for the first time.
"Can you leave this job to someone else?" Cole said to Tyrion with a bitter look on his face.
He looked puzzled and said, "This is a good opportunity. It's much more comfortable to follow my brother James than to be with my father. As long as you tell him that you are my friend, you will definitely be welcomed by him."
"
"Don't worry, trust my brother, he is the youngest Kingsguard in history."
The youngest of the Kingsguard, he can hold a sword but lead troops to fight, it's hard to say. And he will soon become a prisoner of the Stark family like you. Of course, Cole did not say this.
The next day, Ser Kevan came to him with an angry look on his face. His brother Tywin actually asked him to follow a little barbarian boy to lead an army to support Riverrun, and he also wanted to hand over the command to this boy with no hair.
Kevan, a veteran who has been fighting for many years, is not willing to accept it, so this is causing trouble for Cole. Of course, he has already quarreled with his elder brother.
"Ser Kevan." Cole was about to leave the tent.
I saw this old guy putting his hand up to Cole's chest, trying to push him to the wooden railing.
Unexpectedly, Cole didn't move, just looked at him with a half-smile. "I think we have nothing to do, Sir."
