Only in this way can she completely escape the fate of being controlled by others.
After a brief exchange, the two seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding and temporarily formed an alliance.
Two days later, except for the lord Dorne, representatives of other lords and nobles gathered in the cathedral.
The crowd gathered around Viserys and held a grand and solemn coronation ceremony.
At this ceremony, Viserys was officially crowned King of Seven Kingdoms and awarded the titles of "King of Andals, Rhoynar and First Men, Ruler of Seven Kingdoms, Protector of the Realm".
Many lords came forward one after another and swore allegiance to the new king.
Their vows echoed under the dome of the church, looking particularly solemn and solemn.
However, Redd, who was standing aside, watched all this with cold eyes.
He secretly thought: Among these people who swore allegiance, how many of them were sincere? I'm afraid only God knows the answer to this question.
After the ceremony, Viserys stood on the high platform, holding the Blackfyre sword high in his hand. The sword shone with a cold light, as if to tell the determination and majesty of its owner.
His voice was like thunder, echoing in the square. "I, Viserys·Targaryen, declare here today that I declare war on Dorne!"
This declaration was like a huge stone thrown into the lake, causing thousands of waves. Although the lords who had just sworn allegiance had their own plans in mind, at this moment, no one dared to speak against it.
Because they all know that this is not only a war, but also an opportunity for the new king to establish his authority.
Although the kingdom had just experienced a brutal battle between the living and the dead, all the lords had suffered heavy losses and should have rested and regained their strength.
However, this war was inevitable because it involved the king's power and influence.
Any opposition to this war will be regarded as a blatant challenge to the authority of Viserys.
The news spread quickly throughout Seven Kingdoms. House Martell of Dorne had already expected this.
Ever since the death of Prince of Dorne revealed her inextricable connection with House Targaryen, Princess Dorne has begun to prepare for war.
The elderly princess personally led the army and took the lead in the invasion of Stormlands without hesitation.
Although House Baratheon stood up to resist, they could only barely hold on under the fierce attack of Dorne's army.
After Viserys learned of Dorne's actions, he quickly responded.
He ordered Daemon and Corlys to lead their armies respectively and attack Dorne from two directions: Stormlands and Stepstones.
The total strength of the two armies is as high as 300,000, and there are also three powerful dragons participating in the battle.
Viserys's calculation is very precise: he hopes to defeat House Martell quickly through this quick and decisive war and make them submit to his rule as soon as possible.
But Dornish is simply the toughest among the toughest. Their tenacity and tenacity are amazing.
In the war with the dragon, Dornish accumulated rich experience, especially good at guerrilla warfare and tunnel warfare. They used these tactics with great proficiency.
Facing the powerful dragon, the Dorne army will never foolishly confront it head-on. Instead, they will cleverly make use of the complex and harsh terrain in the Dorne area to tenaciously resist the enemy's offensive.
Redd has no interest in the war between House Targaryen and House Martell.
After he and Rhaenyra held a grand wedding in King's Landing, his cheap father-in-law Viserys began to make frequent innuendoes on him, hoping that he could intervene in the war against Dorne.
Redd is like a mirror in his heart. He naturally understands Viserys's wishful thinking - it is nothing more than wanting his dragon to participate in the war, so as to enhance House Targaryen's strength in the war.
However, Redd doesn't have much enthusiasm for this war.
After all, there is no deep hatred between him and Dornish, and he has already accepted compensation from Dornish.
In his opinion, breaking one's promise and going to war is not a wise choice.
What's more, the number of soldiers currently recruited by Dragonstone is less than 30,000. This manpower is simply a drop in the bucket for the Dorne war situation and cannot play any substantial role at all.
Unless King Ghidorah is allowed to participate in the war, it is almost impossible to quickly defeat House Martell and force Dorne to surrender.
Therefore, Redd turned a deaf ear to Viserys's nagging. He felt that instead of listening to Viserys's nonsense here, it would be better to ride the dragon directly back to Dragonstone and have a clear mind.
Only two days after returning to Dragonstone, Redd actually received a handwritten letter from Prince Pentos.
When he finished reading this letter, he couldn't help but feel strong anger and disappointment in his heart.
The content of the letter made him shocked and unbelievable, because the princes and governors of Pentos behaved so incompetently and stupidly when facing such a powerful enemy as Braavos.
Redd had obviously sent two powerful dragons to attack Braavos, which not only successfully killed Neptune, but also destroyed a large number of buildings, causing huge losses to Braavos.
It can be said that Braavos must have been severely damaged in this attack. Even if they can elect a new Sea King as quickly as possible, they may not be able to quickly restore unity and stability internally.
However, at such a perfect opportunity when the opponent was suffering from internal and external troubles, Pentos actually lost the war so quickly.
And now a letter asking for help has been sent to Redd. The tone in the letter is even more humble, as if he has completely lost his confidence and dignity.
Redd The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He slammed the letter on the table and cursed angrily, "These people are simply a bunch of trash who can't hold up the wall!"
I gave them such a good opportunity, but they are still so useless!"
After getting angry, Redd decided that he could no longer sit idly by and do nothing. He wanted to leave early and deal with the situation personally.
So, he ordered the guard outside the door, "Go and call Douglas."
Not long after, Douglas hurried into the room.
Redd looked at him and asked directly, "How many troops do we have now? If we want to take over a city-state, are we capable of doing it?"
Douglas' face changed slightly and he hurriedly replied, "Sir, although we have more than 20,000 people, if we are all mobilized, Dragonstone will lose enough guard power."
There was a hint of worry in his voice, and he was obviously a little embarrassed by this decision.
However, Redd raised his hand to interrupt him without hesitation and said firmly:
"Don't worry about Dragonstone's defense. I will leave two magic dragons here. With them here, no one will dare to cause trouble easily."
