Chapter 318
After notifying House Tully of the news of Others going south, he saw the Mormon family survivors, Blackfish Blington and the others, Jon did not continue to run with the Dothraki cavalry in the Riverlands. Returned directly to the largest castle in Westeros.
Others and ghouls march very fast.
Before House Tully had time to send a letter to the princes of Riverlands, the Melist family sent a raven to send the news that the Sea Territory was captured by the army of the dead.
When Harrenborg in the middle of the Riverlands received the Raven Ravens, Jon, Jaime, Tyrion, Marwyn, Varys and the others could already see tens of thousands of dead army on the city wall.
Jon brows tightly knit: "This will be a hard fight."
Jaime who heard this took a deep breath, said solemnly: "But I believe we can live."
Tyrion looked at Marvin Academician who mastered magical power, but the new Long Family Grand Maester shook his head slightly, not sure about using spell to destroy thousands of ghouls.
"Have we all ignited the torch?" After thinking about it, Jon wants to decide on his own supplies again.
Tyrion brows tightly knit said: "They are all on, and we ran out of our two-week reserve of kerosene and firewood. After this battle, we are going to collect supplies again."
p>"Don't be too optimistic." Jon didn't want to hurt morale, but he was more afraid that Tyrion, Jaime, Malvin Academician and the others would underestimate the horror of ghouls. "Remember, we don't have Dragon Crystal weapons. If they don't die, we must burn them."
"Don't worry, these are warriors that are very difficult to deal with." Jaime glanced at the surrounding Dothraki and Unsullied soldiers.
From the time the ghouls were discovered to when they attacked, within half an hour, tens of thousands of resurrected dead people flooded the city wall of Herrenborg.
Once encountered a ghoul outside the Great Wall.
Every time, they sacrificed the broken troops, letting them stop the pace of the dead with their lives.
But now that there is a city wall, Jon does not have much confidence.
They have no engineering equipment, some are just crazy offensives. They wield myriad weapons and rushed to the city wall. They squeezed one by one, and climbed up the city wall like a pile of Arhat.
Falling rocks and deciduous trees.
The tools that can be used to defend the city are all smashed at the ghouls trying to climb the city wall.
Machete slashing, spear stab, torch used as longsword to move the flame towards the approaching dead and ignite it.
After a while, the smell of barbecue spread throughout Herrenburg.
Dothraki from Essos is wild and violent, physique is tough, and the unsullied soldiers are disciplined, but they can't kill with scimitars and spears. They will not be tired and fearful. They ignore the wounded ghouls. Gradually fell into a disadvantage.
"Malvin Academician, we need your spell!"
Seeing his own decline is obvious, knowing how bad the situation of ghouls killing the city wall will become, Jon immediately asked to master the magic Grand Maester shot.
Magician Malwyn shook his head: "I have limited mana, so I will cast spell now. What should I do if an accident happens next?"
Jon: "But you can see those ghouls can't kill at all , If they go up to the city wall, the Unsullied and Dothraki warrior may not be able to withstand it."
Without entering Sanshan City, Aisara and Moroa said, "Let us help."
As the two female voices fell, the elements suddenly condensed, the flames bloomed out of thin air, and the hunting crimson instantly burned densely packed ghouls under the city wall.
However.
Their magic has no effect at all on Others who are covered with ice armor and hold ice crystal war blades.
Seeing the emergence of magical creatures controlling the dead and mastering ice magic, Jon's face suddenly changed: "It's bad."
......
The North is trembling in the snow and bitterly cold.
The Unsullied, Dothraki warrior, and Dorne Spearman have all left White Harbor at this time.
Leaded and commanded by Daenerys, Varian and the others, they joined the coalition forces that left Winterfell and arrived at The Neck.
Replenish troops, get the Legendary magic item Winter Horn, control a rock giant that is 30 meters high and weighs 1,000 tons, plus two giant dragons and many transcenders, The Seven, Old Gods, The red gods are watching the world.
Robert, Ryan, Varian, Daenerys, they all think that as long as you find Others, victory is at your fingertips!
Inexplicable self-confidence for everyone.
Arthur did not strike, because it was in line with strategic contempt and tactical emphasis.
Meet with the Dorne forces, the Unsullied and Dothraki, and join the coalition consisting of The North, Riverlands, Vale of Arryn, Reach landers, Storm Lords, Royal Lords and Freedmen outside the Great Wall They, the team was inexplicably bloated as they marched.
Furthermore, as many forces squeeze together, friction and contradiction occur every day.
As one of the Chief-In-Charge management logistics, Arthur everyday all can receive reports of theft of food and supplies.
King Robert doesn’t care, Daenerys only cares about the Unsullied and Dothraki, Robb manages The North forces, Varian temporarily takes over the Riverlands forces, because the valley nobles hope to lose all in the Eastern Sea, and it’s up to Sir Barristan Acting as command, Stannis was in charge of the storm and the imperial forces alone, the freedmen were managed by their leaders, and Ryan was the nominal commander-in-chief.
Except for the Unsullied, Dothraki and Freedmen, the alliance soldier is the private soldier of the nobility. The faction stand in great numbers makes the alliance command system very chaotic.
Gawain, Lancelot, and Lan Mallok often catch soldiers who steal things.
How to deal with the thief, it made Arthur a headache.
Great aristocrats like Robb Stark, because they are in charge of authority, they will not complain about how to punish or kill offenders, but those little aristocrats, unruly freedmen and Dothraki, are careless. It will cause big trouble.
Even if Daenerys, Tormund, Ding Dong, and the others tried their best to restrain Dothraki and the freedmen, the results were minimal, and troublemakers continued to appear one after another.
"It won't work like this."
"If the freedmen and Dothraki continue to quarrel, we don't have to fight Others because of internal fighting all split up and in pieces!"
Because of the poor handling of the coalition affairs, eldest son was called to attend the meeting. After hearing Barristan’s report, the Fatty King was very upset: "Ryan, if you can’t handle these things well, the commander of the coalition forces don’t Be it, go and be a soldier!"
Ryan brows tightly knit: "Imperial Father, the freedmen and Dothraki are restrained, but there are not many troubles. The real ones are The North and Riverlands. People, people of Vale of Arryn..."
The dragon queen ruthless broke in front of the place: "All Westerosi are repelling freedmen and Dothraki warrior."
" Exclusion?"
The problem of discrimination has existed since ancient times.
Robert who is hearing this has no good way. In fact, as far back as the impeccable wall, the coalition camp, and the town of Houguan, there were various contradictions.
But there was an imminent crisis at that time. Others and Ghost Soldier were near the city, and there was no time for them to make trouble.
Now that the army is marching south, it may be too easy. In addition, the cold weather makes the soldiers drink to keep warm, and there is no threat of foreign enemies. The contradiction between the buried conflicts will blow up.
Barristan suggested: "His Royal Highness, let the coalition go separately."
This is not the first time that the old Kingsguard Captain's suggestion has been mentioned. As the commander-in-chief of the coalition, Ryan is too worried. "But...who will go ahead, if we encounter Others and the dead army, how can we ensure that the whole army responds in time?"
"Your Majesty, let us The North go ahead."
p>
Thinking of the death of his parents and younger brother, Robb was the first to stand up.
Until Robert objected, Ryan shook his head and said, "No, there are too few soldiers in The North. "
Stannis: "Then let Stormlands and the imperial leader's troops go forward."
"But my lord...we...I’m afraid we’re not capable enough to handle it. A heavy task." Hearing these words from the temporary commanders of the two troops, the deputy commander of the imperial collar hurriedly stood up.
Robert hearing this suddenly coldly snorted: "I won't let me down, you guys take on this important task!"
"Then let the Unsullied and the Dothraki cavalry go ahead "Daenerys groaned opened the mouth and said, "But I have a request, that is, let Arthur help us."
hearing this, Robert and Ryan, Varian, Barristan, Stannis , Robb, Landau and the others mutually glanced at each other. Seeing no one objected, they reluctantly nodded.
"Yes."
Received the answer that everyone agreed, Daenerys immediately said to the boy who served as the background board: "Arthur follow me."
" Now?"
The dragon queen of swift and decisive nodded and said: "Yes, we will go now."
In this way, the Dothraki cavalry and the unsullied began to be summoned, Will walk in the forefront of the coalition forces, as a pioneer to pave the way for the large forces.
But in the Conference Hall, everyone still needs to arrange the discussion freedmen where.
Tormond, Ding Dongshan and the others, as leaders of the freedmen, don’t want to mix with those noble soldiers, and they don’t want to hide behind them as scumbags, so they offered to walk in the unsullied Legion and Behind the Dothraki cavalry.
Soon.
The deployment of the troops was negotiated, and the coalition forces were divided into five parts and went south.
The Dothraki Cavalry and the Unsullied Legion are in front, the Freedmen follow closely from behind, the Dorne coalition and the logistics and logistics bureau, The North, Riverlands, Vale of Arryn, Stormlands, and the Imperial Territory have formed two forces. Partly on the two wings.
The soldiers were restrained again, and the disturbance suddenly disappeared.
Time is in a hurry.
The army accelerated southward. Robert, Ryan, Varian, and the others soon saw the crossing of the river they left when they went north.
The Twins appeared in front of everyone.
The prosperous crossing of the river in the past, today there are only two lonely castles on both sides of the river. There are not a few people, and there is no silhouette on the long bridge.
On Zhuo Geng's dragon's back.
When Arthur and Daenerys brows tightly knit riding together, they felt that the gate was closed tightly, and the passageway on the city wall was blocked. There was no voice at all. It seemed that it had become a dead place. People may be slaughtered by Others and ghouls.
"Anyway, we still have to go down and take a look."
The army crossed The Neck and went south, without a moment of rest. Although there is enough food and supplies, this World of Ice and Snow, the soldiers can't sleep and eat all the time.
The huge Black Dragon landed on the long bridge. Arthur didn’t let the dragon queen come down. The boldness of execution stems from superb skill he blessed holy light, so he went to the bridgehead alone to inquire about the situation, and then found that the castle was not only blocked by all passages , Even the windows are all sealed.
This means that everyone inside hid and did not fight directly with Others and ghouls!
"Is anyone still alive?"
Arthur immediately yelled: "I am Arthur Holy Lorraine, the coalition forces are going south, and your reinforcements are here!"
