"To show our sincerity, we have specially made a throne of pure gold for you, and a crown made by the best craftsmen in the world. The crown has three dragon-shaped statues representing your noble bloodline. Their torsos are made of gold, their wings are made of silver, and their three heads are carved from emerald, ivory, and agate respectively."
Aegon Amero kept boasting about the crown to Daenerys, but Daenerys remained unmoved.
"When I conquer Qarth, these things will still belong to me."
"Your Majesty is a little too arrogant." Aegon Elmor frowned and advised earnestly, "Although the Unsullied of Astapor are powerful, it is undoubtedly a fantasy to want to conquer Qarth with only 3,000 Unsullied. Even with the three young dragons behind you, you can't be a match for Qarth."
"Instead of both sides suffering losses in the war, why not negotiate in advance and shake hands in peace?"
The greatest advantage of the people of Qartheen is their politeness. They claim to be civilized people, but no matter how much they boast of their civilization, they cannot cover up the fact that Qartheen is a slave city-state.
As the Breaker of Shackles of Essos, Daenerys never shows mercy to slavery city-states like Qarth, and no matter how Aegon Amoroo tempts her, he cannot change her determination.
"You know nothing about power."
Daenerys said calmly, "Go back. For the sake of the gifts behind you, I will give you thirty minutes to consider. After thirty minutes, if you are still unwilling to surrender, I will capture Qarth like I did to Meereen and Yunkai. All the slave owners in the city will die."
“…You’re going to regret this!”
Aegon Amero looked at Daenerys hatefully, then turned and left with his servants.
As for the carts of gold, silver and other valuables it brought, Daenerys naturally kept them.
At this moment, Li Yun suddenly frowned and turned to look at the red wasteland on both sides of the army.
Suddenly, a thin black line appeared on the high slope at the end of the field of vision.
Li Yun took a closer look and found that it was a dense mass of camel cavalry. It was the cavalry corps that Qar'th had secretly sent out of the city during the negotiations to flank the Unsullied army on both sides.
Now that the negotiations have broken down, a brilliant firework exploded in the sky above Qarth.
The camel riders on both sides saw the fireworks and immediately drew their weapons, shouting and charging towards the Unsullied army.
"I knew it!"
Looking at the camel cavalry charging from both sides, Daenerys curled her lips.
Then she drew the rapier from her waist, raised it high, and said fearlessly: "Brave and fearless warriors, I have given you powerful weapons that only warriors of God can possess. In front of these weapons, the enemies before you are nothing but a group of lambs to be slaughtered!"
"Now, draw your weapons and prove your strength and loyalty to me!"
Along with Daenerys's passionate battle declaration, the three thousand Unsullied troops burst into earth-shaking shouts.
The fanatical and high morale shocked the charging camel cavalry regiment. The camels under them seemed to be frightened by the neat shouting, and the formation instantly showed signs of chaos.
Hearing the thunderous response from the surroundings, Daenerys smiled and swung the sword forward with force.
"Dracarys!"
"roar!!"
The three young dragons soaring in the sky spewed out raging flames, and then swooped down towards the camel cavalry on both sides.
The Unsullied army formed a battle array on the spot, with the Unsullied holding heavy shields and wearing heavy armor at the forefront. The rest of the Unsullied stood behind these heavy infantrymen, resting their rifles on their shoulders, aiming at the camel cavalry in front.
“Bang, bang, bang—”
Accompanied by the spewing of countless tongues of fire, dense bullets were fired at the camel cavalry charging forward.
The hot bullets easily penetrated their light leather armor, tore through their flesh, and penetrated into their bodies.
After just one encounter, the camel cavalry at the front fell down on their backs in large numbers.
The camel cavalrymen at the back were hit by the second round of bullets before they realized what was happening. As expected, they fell off their camels and were trampled into dust and mud by the iron hooves that followed.
For the next minute, the sound of gunfire rang out like drumbeats among the Unsullied army.
The camel cavalry charging on both sides fell down inexplicably amid the thunder.
The distance of only a few hundred meters seemed like a direct passage to hell, causing these young warriors to end their lives at an extremely fast speed.
Looking at their companions falling one after another and listening to the gunshots ringing like the bells of hell, the camel cavalrymen who still didn't know what was happening finally collapsed.
The fear of death and the unknown overwhelmed their minds and made them forget their mission.
There was only one clear thought left in Kong ****'s mind -
Run away!
The farther you run, the better!
In just a few minutes, the aggressive camel cavalry regiment was defeated.
In contrast is Daenerys' army of the Unsullied.
Not only were they full of fighting spirit, but no one died.
Only three people received minor injuries from rifle explosions.
Outside the carriage, Feng En stared blankly at the defeated camel cavalry in the distance, his heart extremely shocked.
Having lived for so many years, he has experienced countless wars, but he has never seen such an easy battle as the one before him.
...No, this can't be called a battle at all!
Because the two armies had never engaged in direct conflict.
The Unsullied armed with rifles only needed to stand still, aim at the charging meat targets, and mechanically pull the trigger to easily take the lives of their opponents. Occasionally, there would be lucky ones who got close to the army formation, and they would only need to pull out the grenade from their waist, pull out the ring, and throw it out with force, and the opponent would be blown to pieces by the flames that appeared out of nowhere.
At this moment, he finally understood the meaning of Her Majesty the Queen's words "times have changed".
Looking at the camel cavalry fleeing in all directions ahead, Daenerys couldn't help but curl her lips.
It was really vulnerable. She had prepared twelve vehicle-mounted machine guns, ten RPGs and two hundred rockets. Now it seemed that these things were of no use at all.
The enemy's field army couldn't even break through the frontline fire defense line, let alone organize a large-scale decent attack.
It can be seen that the Unsullied Legion equipped with thermal weapons has become invincible in field battles in this world.
But if it's a siege, it's different...
Thinking of this, Daenerys couldn't help but turn her head and look at the tall and sturdy walls of Qarth.
On the watchtower behind the city wall, many figures were stealthily observing the battle situation outside.
"Daxos, didn't you say that when I bring my army to the city, the Thirteen will offer me the city gates?"
Hearing Danyel's emotionless words, Dasor, who was wide-eyed and shocked, suddenly came to his senses, sweat oozing from his forehead. He quickly explained: "Your Majesty, we thirteen great men have already discussed it. Tonight we will send people to take down the city gate and welcome your invincible army into Qarth."
"Tonight?" Daenerys frowned slightly. "Why is it taking so long?"
"this……"
Dasos looked embarrassed, not knowing how to answer.
They originally thought that Daenerys would choose to camp outside the city, negotiate with Qarth for a few days, and then look for an opportunity to launch an attack. However, who would have thought that Daenerys would fall out with Qarth on the first day and easily defeat Qarth's proud camel cavalry regiment.
Looking at the expression on Daxos's face, Daenerys seemed to realize something.
"...Forget it, I'll take down the city gate myself!"
After saying that, Daenerys clapped her hands, and the ten iron puppets carrying the sedan chair immediately cooperated in pairs and pushed the five iron behemoths to the front of the formation.
These five steel behemoths were painted in green camouflage, had thick and long gun barrels, and heavy gun mounts with legs spread out behind them. They were exactly the Italian 1935-style 210mm howitzers that Zuo Yu strongly recommended to her.
This was the best Italian artillery piece during World War II, and its performance was not inferior to that of large-caliber artillery pieces of the same period.
Since Italy surrendered, Germany has continued to produce this artillery, which is enough to prove that its performance is excellent.
It has an exaggerated caliber of 210 mm, and the shells are available in two models: light 101kg and heavy 131kg. The muzzle velocity can reach 560 meters per minute, and the range is up to 15.4 kilometers.
In this medieval era when swords were king, a range of thirty miles was a number that made all enemies despair.
Looking at the steel behemoth in front of him that was fifteen meters long from head to tail, Dasos felt a sense of fear for no reason.
Daenerys controlled the iron golems to load ammunition, adjust parameters, and aim the muzzles of the five iron beasts at the walls of Qarth and the watchtowers filled with human figures.
“Watch this!”
Daenerys said calmly.
"boom!"
With a roar that almost shattered the eardrums, the shells weighing hundreds of kilograms turned into afterimages and slammed into Qarth.
A few seconds later, the watchtower filled with human figures exploded with a loud bang. The Qarth nobles inside did not even utter a scream before they turned into countless blood and limbs flying all over the sky.
The power is pretty good...
Daenerys nodded with satisfaction, then ignored the terrified screams coming from the city, turned around, looked at Daxos whose back was already wet with cold sweat, and whispered, "Go back and tell them to leave the city and surrender within ten minutes."
"Otherwise, this city will be completely engulfed in blood and fire..."
