Game of Thrones: Battle Royale Game

Chapter 160 Motives and Techniques (Part 2)



“At first I always thought that this competition was promoted by Ander Poole, a player who acted next to Soda, but after discovering Hazan’s purpose, I realized that things were not that simple.

Because this contest directly pushed the conflict between Hazan and Soda to a life-or-death level, and also dragged the situation in Pentos to the brink of civil war. This is why Hazan and his allies can mobilize their troops at will without causing any trouble in Ili. Leo was on high alert for opportunities.

Coincidentally, the tourney happened to be before the horse king's wedding. If Hazan and the others planned to use this tourney to deal with Illyrio, then the time would match that Illyrio would be killed before I left Pentos. The conclusion of getting rid of it.

So I asked Illyrio's butler to learn more about the situation in Pentos City. I wouldn't know if I didn't ask, and I was really shocked when I got the answer.

It turns out that Prince Hazan and Governor Tetrus had already approached Governor Illyrio for help because they 'didn't want a civil war to happen', and on the grounds of 'separating the armies of both sides to avoid conflict', they sent the new troops under Illyrio's command to The additional mercenary team was transferred to the DC area - which just separated them from the XC area, Illyrio's traditional sphere of influence.

This undoubtedly created an opportunity for Hazan and his allies to attack the XC area.

The next question is whether Hazan's ally is Governor Tetrus, who has gathered his army in the North City, or the old Governor Rotalus, who will send the First Banner Guard outside the Prince's Palace in the central city tomorrow to maintain the order of the contest. After all, these two positions can be matched with Hazan's troops in Nancheng District to attack the XC area.

I prefer the former. After all, the old governor of Rotalus was not assigned the command of the new mercenaries, nor did he allow his family's private soldiers to enter the city. The force in his hands was less than half of that of Governor Tetrus.

In terms of odds of winning, the possibility of an alliance between Hazan and Governor Tetrus is much greater.

Moreover, tomorrow's contest was proposed by the Tetrus family. If the contest itself is a conspiracy against Governor Illyrio, the Tetrus family, one of the initiators, is more likely to be involved.

With this direction in mind, more evidence began to emerge in my mind.

For example, after I told Hazan the news that two of Hazan's water dancers were going to rebel on the spot, Hazan said that he already knew the news.

I was shocked at the time. After all, two water dancers rebelled against something that could determine the outcome of the game. Is it possible for Suda to tell anyone easily? I'm afraid he wouldn't even trust his own brother, so how could Hazan's mole know about it?

But if Governor Tetrus had indeed formed an alliance with Hazan, this would be explained - Governor Tetrus himself betrayed his son.

According to the information I received earlier, Governor Tetrus is an old stallion with dozens of illegitimate sons. It is entirely possible that he is willing to sacrifice one of his sons to dispel Illyrio's suspicions - besides Hazan may not take Sudha's life tomorrow.

After having this guess, I conducted a reconnaissance on Pentos in the form of a falcon, and soon got more evidence.

The Qoma Inn, nicknamed the 'Mercenary Guild', which belongs to the Tetrus family, and the Liberty Street Arena, where both parties have recruited agent warriors in the past month, are both located at the junction of the two southwest districts.

The former itself has gathered a large number of mercenaries at any time, while the latter has a large number of mercenaries and slave warriors gathered due to the activities of Hazan and Suda recruiting agent warriors over the past month. In these two places, Hazan and Governor Tetrus could temporarily recruit hundreds of people.

As a result, the total strength of both sides was close to three times that of Illyrio, giving them an overwhelming advantage.

At this point, Hazan's method of dealing with Illyrio has been completely solved.

Then only the final question remains - why did Governor Tetrus form an alliance with Hazan? When did they reconcile and come to an agreement?

So I continued to search for answers in my memory, and soon I found a clue - on the morning when Hazan and Delif announced their engagement, Prince Hazan, Governor Haukote and Governor Tetrus were in the Red Temple. There was a failed peace negotiation

The Red Temple is your activity area. I think it was probably at that time that you used some kind of magic trick to promote their alliance, right? "

"That's right," Celia admitted generously, "I used intermediate Red God magic and potions to hypnotize them, making them think they saw Illyrio in the flames begging Drogo at Drogo's wedding. Help him seize Pentos, and Drogo readily agrees and sends his cavalry through the gate held by Illyrio's army, into a vision of Pentos slaughtering them all."

Celia said as she stood up to light the incense burner that had just been extinguished. "Then the two governors and Prince Hazan decided to put aside their grudges for the time being, and under my guidance and hints, they formulated a plan to eliminate Illyrio. plan."

"Wait, what are you doing?" Ian stepped forward and grabbed Celia's hand. "We have already formed an alliance. Do you want to drug me and die together?"

"No, the medicine is still in the stove, and I haven't changed it." Celia shook her head gently.

"So what do you want to do?"

"I'm thinking that if I am pregnant with your child, maybe you will show mercy to me when I lose my use value to you."

"I'm talking to you about business." Ian said, but still let go of Celia's hand and let her light the incense burner.

"Let's talk about business without delay. Isn't that what you talked about when you first started?"

"Tell me Hazan's more complete plan first." Ian did not resist, "I want to know what other omissions I have?"

"Before the attack," Celia began to tell, "we will first find a way to introduce Illyrio into the Parliament Palace. This can effectively prevent Illyrio from escaping through the port. After all, this plan only involves Prince Hazan and Hauket. The Governor and Governor Tetrus, Delif Howcott, and five of me knew.

After we issue the order to attack, the army below will need a long time to react. During this time, Illyrio's intelligence network will definitely get the news, and he will be able to escape from the sea before we surround his mansion. to escape, so we need to trap Illyrio in the Council Palace first, and then eradicate his power. "

"Then why didn't you just kill Illyrio in the Parliament Palace?" Ian frowned.

"Because the guards of the Parliament Palace belong to the Grand Council itself, no one has the right to mobilize them, and it is impossible for us to attack the Parliament Palace. That would offend all the nobles of Pentos. This is why we are sure to introduce Illyrio to the Parliament Palace. , the interior of the Parliament Palace is an absolutely safe place, and blood has never been seen there since the founding of the city of Pentos, and Illyrio cannot possibly doubt it."

"So your plan is to blockade the Palace of Parliament outside after Illyrio enters the Palace of Parliament, and then start to attack the west city, and then intercept and kill Illyrio after he comes out of the Palace of Parliament?"

"Yes, that's it in a nutshell," Celia finished and asked, "So, which side are you going to stand on? My suggestion is to follow my plan, kill Illyrio and form an alliance with Hazan , and then follow Daenerys along the original line until she captures the city in Astapor.”

"I'm ready to stand on my side." Ian chuckled and whispered his next plan in Celia's ear.
