After more than ten days of long waiting, Arya and more than 3,000 mountain clan warriors finally walked out of the mountains and returned to the camp.

These more than 3,000 mountain clan warriors come from more than 40 different tribes, and they are all willing to fight for Stark.

Most of the leaders of these tribes are old, and they have appointed their successors to lead their tribesmen to respond to King in the North's call.

The successors of each tribe came to the main tent, knelt down and swore allegiance to Gary.

Gary According to tradition, he held a banquet with the only dried meat and bread on hand to welcome the arrival of the vassals.

At the banquet, Gary discussed the next battle plan with them.

The mountain clans live on the outskirts of Wolfswood. They often enter Wolfswood for hunting, so they know the terrain inside the forest quite well.

With their help, Gary quickly formulated a rough plan: he himself led the Highgarden cavalry, Giants, and two thousand mountain clans to attack Deepwood Motte from the front E, the remaining Qianshan clan secretly sneaked into the north side of Deepwood Motte's seaside, destroyed Ironborn's long boat on the shore, and cut off Ironborn's retreat.

After the tactical discussion, the banquet ended. Gary asked everyone to go to bed early tonight and leave for Deepwood Motte tomorrow.

Five days later, late at night.

With the mountain clan leading the way, Gary's marching speed among Wolfswood greatly accelerated. They did not light a torch and quietly arrived at the outskirts of Deepwood Motte.

The successor of the Flint clan, Donner Flint and Gary were squatting in the grass together, looking at Deepwood Motte not far away.

Deepwood Motte is located on a hill and is a wooden fortress. It is built very neatly and elegantly. The walls on all four sides are thick enough, which is much stronger than the mountain clan tribes that also have wooden structures.

There are at least twenty Ironborn patrolling the southern city wall. Together with the patrols on several other walls, there are more than a hundred soldiers on duty in one night.

It can be preliminarily inferred that the number of Ironborn from Deepwood Motte is at least five hundred.

Donal Filint lowered his voice and asked, "Your Majesty, let me lead a hundred warriors to investigate first and see how many Ironborn there are in Deepwood Motte."

Gary raised his hand to stop him and said, "The number of Ironborn is not important. There were one thousand Ironborn stationed before Deepwood Motte. Even if Iron Islands sent a few more waves of Ironborn over, the total would only be two to three thousand defenders, which is not a big concern."

He patted Donal Flint on the shoulder and said, "Your mission is to clear the battlefield and help me capture important people. The troops fighting in the front are my cavalry and Giants, not you."

After Gary finished speaking, he took a Wooden Bow and a burning Flame arrow handed over by the Ice warrior, "The siege has begun, obey my orders, do you understand?"

Donal Flint was a little reluctant, but he couldn't disobey the king's order, "Yes."

Gary fully drew the bow string, pointed at the sea monster flag above the city wall, and shot the Flame arrow.

"Whoops."

The Ironborn people on the city wall didn't know what was happening, but they saw a burning Flame arrow nailed to their flag.

Flame spread quickly and burned the entire flag.

"Enemy attack!"

The Ironborns who were on duty at the south city wall were gearing up. They all came to the top of the city wall, drew their bows and shot arrows, and continued shooting at the forest outside.

But those arrows seemed to have disappeared into the sea without causing any splash. What about the enemies in the forest? Why were there no movements?

Just when Ironborn were extremely confused, their "return gift" arrived.

Dozens of giant arrows as thick as their arms fell from the sky, nailing all the Ironborn on the south wall to the floor. The arrows were so powerful that they left dense black holes on the wooden wall.

There was also a giant arrow that missed the target and hit the city gate, punching a hole in the wooden city gate that was large enough to pass through.

Ironborn on the other three walls heard the noise and wanted to rush over to support...

"Roar!"

A Dragon roar came from the sky, and Daenerys flew over Deepwood Motte on a dragon, "Dragonfire!"

Drogon sprayed out a beam of slightly dazzling Flame at the Ironborn on other city walls, and countless Ironborn were instantly incinerated. Three city walls were also set ablaze by Dragonfire, igniting a raging fire.

Gary pulled out Falling Plum from his waist, raised it high, "Charge!"

His knight's horse rushed out of the forest first, followed closely by Highgarden's two hundred cavalry, and thirty-seven Giants cavalry.

Gary took the lead. He used the snow near the city wall to activate Ice Magic, turning it into a huge ice fist and smashing the heavily damaged wooden city gate into pieces.

The cavalry followed Gary and rushed into Deepwood Motte. A feast of swords, blood, and blood was about to take place.

Countless Ironborn woke up from their sleep. Before they could even pick up their weapons, their heads were chopped off by the passing Highgarden cavalry.

Dragon in the sky will also spray out streams of Dragonfire at the camp on Ironborn's side when passing over Deepwood Motte.

However, the enemy that makes the Ironborns feel most desperate is not the Dragon flying in the sky, but the thirty or so Giantss riding mammoths. Often, before they get close to the Giantss, they will be beaten to death by the wooden sticks in the hands of the Giantss, or trampled into pulp by the mammoths.

Under the triple attack of the cavalry, Giants, and Dragon, the Ironborns were defeated.

Gary's army quickly captured Deepwood Motte with overwhelming force and almost unilaterally massacred the Ironborn army stationed there.

The screams of the Ironborns resounded throughout the Deepwood Motte. Under the light of the fire, this castle seemed to be a purgatory on earth.

Asha woke up as soon as Ironborn sent out the enemy attack alarm. But as soon as she got dressed, the enemy had already invaded Deepwood Motte, and she had no time to direct the battle.

She kicked open Victarion's door angrily and found that he was still sleeping soundly with two women in his arms. It seemed that they had been fighting so late at night that they could still sleep peacefully despite the sound of killing outside.

"Uncle Victarion! What the hell are you doing?"

Victarion was kicked awake by Asha and said angrily, "Asha, are you crazy? How dare you do this to me?"

Asha was furious and shouted at him, "The enemy has already entered, are you still sleeping?"

"What enemy? Stark?" Victarion opened his mouth and hurriedly got out of bed to put on his armor, "You two stinky cousins, get up and help me put on my armor!"

He was in a hurry and couldn't put on the armor in a short time, so he woke up the two girls and asked them to help.

The girls were crying and helping Victarion put on armor and helmet with trembling hands.

Asha reminded, "Uncle Victarion, Dragon is here too, remember to use Dragonbinder!"

She led dozens of her confidants to the lower level of the castle and met the House Glover members she imprisoned here.

Deepwood Motte Earl followed Robb to fight south. Because Roose Bolton betrayed him, he was captured by Lannister.

The members of House Glover who are currently imprisoned in Deepwood Motte by Asha are Mrs. Earl, Shibena Locke, their eldest son Gawen Glover, and their eldest daughter Aina Glover.

Both children are very young, the slightly older Gawen Glover is three years old, and Ina Glover is still a one-year-old baby.

Since Asha captured Deepwood Motte, it has always been very courteous to Mrs. Sibena Locke. She originally wanted to negotiate with the North through Sibena Locke's identity.

But she didn't expect that this weak aristocratic woman would now become her only bargaining chip to escape Deepwood Motte.
