181: Surprise Attack on Bay Carlin
"I am Theon Greyjoy. This needs no explanation. I was born in Pyke and am the only heir to House Greyjoy."
At this moment, Theon seemed to have become the iron hero who captured Winterfell again.
The two guards looked at each other, one of them sneered and put his hand on his sword.
Seeing this, Theon swallowed his saliva and said quickly: "I want to see your commander-in-chief. If your commander-in-chief is noble enough, he must have met me."
Theon's solemn words made the two guards look at each other in confusion. For a moment, they were not sure whether what Theon Greyjoy said was true.
In the end, one of the guards chose to take Theon to see their commander-in-chief, Raver Kenning.
Raver Kenning was an Ironborn invader from the North, a member of House Kenning of Harlow.
Raff was one of Victarion Greyjoy's captains when he captured Moat Cailin.
He pushed hard for Victarion to claim the Seastone Throne.
After Aeron Greyjoy calls a kingsmoot, Victarion leads the Iron Fleet to Old Wyk, leaving Raff in command of Moat Cailin.
Although Raff was not present at the kingsmoot, he was listed as a supporter of Victarion at the kingsmoot.
Soon Theon met Raver Kenning.
But what surprised Theon was that at this time, Raver Kenning was lying on a simple wooden bed, like a candle in the wind, and it seemed that he would die at any time.
"What's going on?" Theon asked in surprise.
"I was wounded by a crannog's arrow, but there is no medicine here, and the wound has festered. But you, Theon, what have you been through?"
Raver Kenning apparently knew Theon Greyjoy.
But Theon Greyjoy had changed so much at this time that he looked dozens of years older in just a few months.
Theon frowned and walked forward to lift the rag on Lafo's leg. Underneath was festering black and purple rotten flesh, which made people feel nauseous.
"No need to look. I know the situation very well. But you, why are you here? Didn't you capture Winterfell?"
Theon's breathing suddenly became rapid, but he did not tell them about his experience. He only said that he came to persuade them to surrender.
As long as they surrender, the Bolton family will allow them to retreat safely to the Iron Islands.
After hearing this, Lafo sneered, "Are you a woman, boy?" Although Lafo's voice was weak, the sarcastic tone made Theon feel extremely harsh.
It was obvious that Lafo was not ready to surrender. Thinking that he had not completed the task assigned to him by Ramsay, Theon began to tremble in fear.
"I'm not a woman, I'm a stinker, I'm a stinker, you don't know." Theon's voice trembled and tears of fear filled his eyes.
Lafo struggled to his feet. Without Victarion's orders, he was obviously ready to fight to the death with the people outside.
"Go back and tell your master that the ironborn will not surrender, Theon Greyjoy? Who the hell do you think you are?"
Rafe's tone was unusually firm; he supported Victarion.
Not to mention Theon Greyjoy, even if Balon Greyjoy was here, he would have to get the order from Victarion.
Theon stood there in fear, muttering "I am a stinker" over and over again, and this scene was seen by Lafo.
"What the hell are you mumbling about?" Before Lafo could finish his words, a dagger had already pierced his heart.
"As long as we surrender, the Bolton family will let us retreat to the Iron Islands, right?"
A bald man behind Lafo stabbed Lafo to death with a dagger. He was willing to die for Victarion, but that didn't mean everyone was willing!
This feeling of defending an isolated city was too easy to make people collapse and despair, with no reinforcements or help in sight.
Now that they have the opportunity to surrender, they are still prepared to fight to the death. Do they really not value their lives?
As for the iron race not surrendering?
This is bullshit. Didn't Baron surrender at the beginning?
He even sent his own son to Winterfell as a hostage!
Theon looked at Lafo, who fell to the ground with his eyes wide open. He was stunned for a moment before reacting and said quickly, "Yes, as long as you are willing to surrender, Lord Ramsay is willing to let you return to the Iron Islands."
The bald man nodded, and then said: "Go tell your master that we are willing to surrender as long as we can return to the Iron Islands safely!"
Then the bald man asked others to carry Lafo's body away and throw it away somewhere.
The others looked at Laffer's body expressionlessly, without any sympathy or guilt on their faces.
Even they showed a look of relief on their faces. It was obvious that Laffer's fight with others here caused dissatisfaction among all his subordinates.
The food has been exhausted, and there is no medicine. Now there is a chance to surrender, but they are still prepared to fight the enemy with their lives. What is the difference between this and killing them?
As for loyalty and honor?
Don't be funny. In front of your life, you can give up anything!
Nothing is more important than your own life!
Just when Theon was trying to persuade the ironborn who stayed in Moat Cailin to surrender, Ramsay Bolton encountered an emergency outside.
Ramsay Bolton was waiting for news from Theon, but suddenly he felt the ground shaking slightly.
Then a large number of cavalry suddenly rushed out from behind without any warning.
The most important thing is that Rams had never seen the flag of this light cavalry before, and the monster on the flag was even more unheard of.
The cavalry that appeared was the light cavalry led by Hecarim. Their original target was the iron race that landed on the Stone Coast.
However, the number of iron races was far different from the number mentioned in Mrs. Glover's letter. By the time they arrived, the iron race threat had already been resolved.
So Jack simply asked them to take dry food with them, and the five hundred people set out directly from the Rocky Coast, without looting along the way, and headed straight for the Bay of Cailin.
At this time, there were only a few iron races defending the Bay of Cailin. According to the original plan, after they arrived, Korakshu would help them eliminate the enemies in the Bay of Cailin.
With Korakxiu's intelligence, he can complete this task alone.
And no matter where Korakshuu is, Jack can enter the Dragon Spirit state.
This is different from Daenerys and Drogon having to stay within thousands of meters of each other.
This is one of the functions of the power of faith. Jack and Korakxiu have both absorbed the power of faith.
And because of the special nature of Poseidon's soul, Jack is like a tumor on Poseidon's soul, constantly and passively absorbing the power of faith in Poseidon's body to strengthen his soul.
So Jack can also use the power of faith, but Jack is different from Poseidon and can only passively absorb and strengthen souls.
It has no other effect at the moment. Jack estimates that he has to wait until his soul is strengthened to a certain level before he can enter the Galaxy of Faith and learn to control the power of faith.
However, although he can only passively use the power of faith to strengthen his soul.
However, Korakshu and Jack, who have been strengthened by the power of faith, can ignore the distance and enter the dragon spirit state by relying on the strengthening of the power of faith.

Chapter 182 Ramsay's Little Trick
Ramsay's bastard troops were not considered elite even among the soldiers of House Bolton.
Faced with the sudden cavalry, the "good boy among illegitimate children" was instantly scattered.
Hecarim rushed straight towards Rammus, and it was obvious that Rammus, the leader, came into his sight.
Since there was a narrow passage near the Moat Cailin, Ramsay left his army in the open area.
He never expected that an army would come out from behind. You have to know that the North and the South are all the sphere of influence of the Bolton family, and no army can bypass the Bolton family's eyes.
But that is the fact. Although someone has indeed discovered Hecarim's whereabouts, because of Korax's guidance and escort, it is estimated that the Dreadfort has just received the news now.
Seeing that things were going badly, Ramsay managed to remain calm and immediately jumped on his horse to escape.
"Catch the leader and reward him ten silver coins!" Hecarim roared.
Suddenly dozens of cavalrymen rushed towards Rams.
"Hiss——" a roar suddenly exploded.
Ramsay's black horse was suddenly frightened, and then an arrow hit the horse's leg, and the black horse fell to the ground in an instant.
Hecarim led a dozen cavalrymen to surround Ramsay, "Capture him and interrogate him about the situation at Moat Cailin."
Hecarim then led the rest of the people to slaughter Ramsay's army, chasing them for several miles. Finally, after only a few dozen people were left and disappeared, Hecarim returned to clean up the battlefield.
After returning, Hecarim asked someone to bring Rammus over.
"What is your name?" Hecarim looked Ramsay Bolton up and down.
"My name is Lan, sir. I am just a small captain, sent by the higher-ups to monitor the movements in the Bay of Cailin."
Ramsay looked terrified, as if he was just a captain who knew nothing.
"Haha." Hecarim sneered, "It seems you are still not honest."
He looked at the soldier next to him and ordered in a cold voice: "Teach him a lesson and chop off his right hand."
Ramsay was stunned. He didn't expect Hecarim to chop off his hand directly.
"Wait, wait, I know a piece of information that will allow you to capture Bay Cailin without losing a single soldier!"
But Hecarim remained unmoved. He looked at Ramsay Bolton coldly, then nodded and signaled the soldiers to take action.
Then, under the horrified and vicious gaze of Ramsay Bolton, his hand was pressed to the ground and cut off by a soldier's sword.
Ramsay stared at the soldier intently, as if he wanted to memorize the soldier's face clearly.
The soldier was frightened by his stare and kicked Ramsay in the face.
Then the soldier stepped on Ramsay hard and said, "Where are you?"
"Look at me again and I'll dig your eyeballs out!"
At this moment, the resentment and anger in Ramsay's heart had overshadowed the pain of having his hand cut off.
Ever since he captured Winterfell and restored his name to Bolton, he had never suffered such humiliation. Even the lowest soldier could trample him into the mud.
But Ramsay knows that the most important thing is to survive.
The origins of this cavalry were unknown, and combined with the dark shadow that just flashed overhead, Rams had already roughly guessed the general background of this cavalry.
If what he expected was true, it must be the army of the Targaryen bastard in the north.
Although he didn't know how this cavalry unit managed to get to Bay Cailin quietly, given the current relationship between the two families, which was one of life and death, if his identity was known, he would be doomed.
Roose Bolton would never pay any price for him, because having another legitimate heir would be much better than having him as an illegitimate child, and it could even be a matter of killing two birds with one stone.
Ramsay wailed in pain, like a little conductor trying to survive.
"My lord, I am really just a viscount. Please, my lord, please have mercy on me. I can swear allegiance to you. I can be loyal to you and provide you with information about the Bolton family and Moat Cailin!"
Ramsay's superb acting skills made Hecarim temporarily believe his words, and Hecarim did not expect that he could really catch any big fish.
Just as Hecarim was about to question Ramsay, a soldier rode over on horseback and threw a man to the ground.
"My lord, this man just walked out of Moat Cailin and tried to escape after seeing us."
When Ramsay saw Theon being thrown down, he was a little panicked, but he suppressed his panic and winked at Theon.
Theon was a little confused. He thought Ramsay was playing some trick on him again until he saw the severed hand on the ground.
Theon was stunned.
He raised his head blankly and looked at Ramsay.
Ramsay's heart trembled, he hid his right hand and revealed his left hand.
But Theon still saw his bleeding right hand.
!!!
Theon's pupils suddenly shrank. He realized that this didn't seem to be a show performed to torture him. The corpses around him and the severed hands on the ground looked so fresh.
The bright red blood is so conspicuous.
At this moment, a strong wind blew and a huge black shadow enveloped everyone, and then everyone quickly gave up their position.
Korachou fell from the sky, and his shiny scarlet scales and huge body made Ramsay and Theon a little stunned.
Theon Greyjoy's heart began to tremble, and his silent and numb heart began to bleed again.
He knew the current situation in the North, and when Ramsay and Roose were discussing the situation, they did not avoid him, the stinky guy.
"What is your name?" Hecarim looked at Theon. "Why did you come out of Moat Cailin?"
"I'm Theon Greyjoy. I'm Reek, Reek." Theon suppressed the urge to ask for help.
Because he was not sure how the other party would deal with Ramsay, what if they reached an agreement with Roose Bolton and released Ramsay.
And then give himself to Ramsay to take back, he might as well commit suicide.
Unexpectedly, when Hecarim heard his words, he frowned and said in disbelief: "Are you Theon Greyjoy? Look up!"
Hearing Hecarim's harsh rebuke, Theon instinctively began to tremble and became uncontrollably frightened.
He slowly raised his head and said in a trembling voice: "I am Reek, I am Reek."
Hecarim looked shocked and had basically confirmed Theon Greyjoy's identity.
Because Jack had told them before that Ramsay of House Bolton might also be attacking Moat Cailin, or even had already taken it.
Tell him to keep an eye out, if he can, for a Reek, Asha Greyjoy's brother, with Ramsay.
