Chapter 250
From the west bridge on the westernmost side of the Impassable Wall, rush to the eastern sea on the easternmost side of the ice wall.
Because the united army soldier is stationed, the road is unimpeded, and under the horse galloping, the moon is setting and the sun is rising after the clouds covering the earth.
Although the sun cannot be seen, the sky changes and dark clouds cannot completely block all the light.
The cold wind not only brings bone cold, but also seems to blow away everything in the world, and the heavy snow seems to bury the world.
If there are no soldiers taking turns to clear the snow, not only will the passages on the Wall be blocked by snow, but even the fortifications will be damaged.
Compared with the ground where the snow is faster than the knee, obviously riding a horse on the ice wall can get to the Eastern Sea faster.
Looking south on the Wall, the Night's Watch land grant is shrouded in snow and fog, and you can’t see what the situation is like in the Hand of the King Eddard who led the army to support the Wildling settlement.
However, the situation of Eastern Sea is obvious at a glance.
Varian manages the castle like an iron barrel.
Through fortifications, city defense, gunpowder and other weapons, all the ghoul army was blocked from the city wall. More than two thousand resurrected dead were burned to coke and returned to eternal silence.
Of course, Varian successfully defended the castle and took the opportunity to destroy many ghouls. It was also because the Others had no goals and were not the hope of Eastern Sea, and they did not personally launch an attack.
Compared to the Eastern Sea Castle, the situation on the wharf and north of Wall here is worse.
The dock is completely occupied by Others.
No matter the soldiers on the naval battleship or the Wall, they can only watch the dead army continuously bypass the ice wall through the icy sea, and they can't stop it by any means.
"So, the ghoul can come from outside the wall continuously?" Knowing the situation here, Arthur brows tightly knit.
Varian helplessly said: "I want to guard the castle. The situation on the Wall can't be ignored by Avatar, and there is no way to destroy the solid ice."
"We can't let The ghouls continue to bypass the ice wall and head south." Arthur said solemnly, "I suggest to take the initiative to kill the General Others on the dock."
Varian shook his head when he heard the younger brother's words: "No. , This is too risky, the wind and snow are so big, we don’t even know the exact location of General Others.
Even if we know its location, the ghoul continuously comes from the sea ice, we will definitely be trapped when we rush over. , Even with your holy light protection, it may be consumed."
"But for this reason, the land-grant Wildling of Night's Watch has been constantly attacked by ghouls. If Wildling dies*|光Now, Others will get more ghoul soldiers."
"We all know, but this kind of thing must have a perfect plan and full confidence." Varian still refused the younger brother to take the risk. "Don't be too hot to charge ahead!"
Then explained: "Although it is impossible to prevent Others from bypassing the Wall in the castle, the number of passes they can pass is at most two thousand at a time.
The Wildling of Night's Watch land grant is supported by Hand of the King Eddard. You said the Imperial Father will also rush over. The defensive battle will be difficult, but this is also a good opportunity for us to eliminate Others."
Arthur hearing this has some doubts.
I don’t understand how the others led the army of ghouls to attack the Night's Watch land grant. Tens of thousands of Wildlings are in danger, how could they be turned into a good opportunity to eliminate them.
Varian laughed: "Eastern Sea hopes that the castle and the navy are still there?"
Arthur frowned: "But we can't cut off the Others and the army of the dead to bypass Wall Ice tunnel."
Varian: "I have tried. Four powder barrels can blow up the ice tunnel, but in a snowstorm, the sea will re-freeze in two or three hours. ."
What's the use of cutting off the ghoul and going south for two or three hours?
There are so many indefatigable, unfeeling, hard-to-kill resurrected dead, only this time can not completely eliminate them.
Arthur still didn't quite understand what Varian said.
No one has been teaching the younger brother about military knowledge. I can't think of the strategic plan so clearly. Varian is really speechless.
"Arthur, there are Hand of the King Eddard and Imperial Father, do you think the Wildling camp can be held?"
"If there are not too many Others...it should be possible."
"Since we can hold on, we can build a new line of defense to completely attract ghouls, right?"
Speaking of this, Arthur also guessed one thing: "Your It means...the ghouls have entered our pockets, but aren’t we unable to completely cut off the ice?
Moreover, tens of thousands of ghouls have entered the grant land, and there are several commanders. General Others, how can we eliminate them in two or three hours?"
Varian confidently said with a slight smile: "Dare to arrange this, naturally there is a way to do it."
"What am I going to do?"
"Go to support the Imperial Father and Hand of the King Eddard."
"What about you?"
"I can defend even if a large number of Others come to attack the city."
"Okay." Arthur is not a procrastinator. Hearing Varian’s words, immediately let Annie and Gawain do it. Prepare.
Satisfied, rested, and immediately returned to the Wall. From east to west, one castle after another asked Hand of the King Eddard and the others which castle the reinforcements were closest to.
But Night's Watch land grant and new land grant are too big.
Add snow and fog.
The surroundings of the Night's Watch castle, even if there are sentries observing on the tower, they do not understand the situation of the Wildling settlements.
In desperation, Arthur had no choice but to return to Castle Black and repeat Varian's words to Ryan, and then he immediately summoned 10,000 people for the younger brother to bring the Night's Watch land grant support.
King has led five thousand soldiers to take the lead.
But considering that just in case, and keeping the army in the Castle Black camp is of little use, Ryan simply gave them some people for the sake of safety.
In this way, ten thousand people followed Arthur, grandiose headed east.
The marching speed of the large army is very slow, and with bronze cannons, catapults, etc., it takes a lot of time to clear the snow.
Fortunately, this 10,000-strong army does not need to be commanded by Arthur. There are nobles of Riverlands, Vale of Arryn, and Dragonstone, otherwise he will definitely make a lot of jokes in a hurry.
Place Wildling's Night's Watch land grant here.
Hand of the King Eddard's situation is not good.
In the successive battles, whether it is the soldiers of The North, Wildling warrior, or Spearwoman, they are exhausted to resist the ghouls' day and night attacks.
All the gunpowder barrels, gunpowder jars, and Dragon Crystal arrows that I brought have been exhausted.
As a reinforcement commander, he also took over Wildling. The North has not slept for two days and two nights, his eyes are red and bloodshot.
He was tired and sleepy, but he couldn't close his eyes and rest.
Because the ghouls have attacked fiercely for so long, the Generals Others who controlled them have never appeared!
As a rare transcender, the bronze Jon who commanded the elite soldiers of Talisman Stone City is the main force of their reinforcements.
However, the Others did not come out, and he was seriously injured just in the face of endless ghouls.
This battle seems to be endless.
In a spurt of energy, it fades again and exhausts after three. The soldiers have not just come to support, vowing to kill all the high-spirited and vigorous ghouls.
Strengths can be continuously replenished from the icy sea. The Night King, who is in charge of the marvelous soldiers, is also advancing. The General Others, who commanded the dead to storm the Night's Watch land grant, is really not in a hurry.
The snowstorm is violent.
The firewood that can be used in the camp has been lit.
They are all used to burn ghouls, and now they don’t even have firewood for heating.
"Our situation is very unfavorable. Did Skinchanger send back the letter for help?"
Heard the inquiry from The North and Kingdom Hand of the King, and suffered multiple injuries. Bronze Jon said: "Skinchanger controlled the crow to fly aside two hours ago, saying that Your Majesty is coming with cavalry."
"About how long will it take to arrive?"
Big Jon said: "There is too much snow, and some ghouls rushing past, this is not true."
"What's the good news then?"
From the valley Lynn Cobrelli of Heartland City thought for a while and said: "Wall has not been breached."
