Chapter 324
Dany organized Suicide Squad to head north to Haunted Forest to capture Others, Stannis knew, but he had no plans to get involved.
First of all, he didn't want to work with the Dragon Queen, because she didn't want to show off one's military strength while riding a dragon.
Also because of the dark tricks in his heart, getting along with the client will remind him of the unbearableness of oneself-normally, he is strict with himself, proud of the noble morality and character of oneself (Second Stag worked hard and successfully believed Renly death has nothing to do with oneself), conspiracy to murder Dragon Queen is contrary to his values.
Secondly, even though oneself has been declared the savior many times, the competition for Iron Throne has only one purpose: to unite the forces of the Seven Kingdoms under the command of the legitimate King - that is, his oneself -, and to deal with the evil in the north. Other .
In fact, Stannis never saw Others at all, nor did he fundamentally understand the meaning of "Child of Prophecy ends Long Night".
To put it bluntly, playing Others against the Stag Party at this time is a political slogan. Set up a flag to ensure that oneself stands on the moral high ground.
As for the threats from Others, they had never even seen them before, so they couldn't agree with them from the bottom of their hearts.
Finally, Stag Party was very tired and didn't have the energy to spend time with Dragon Queen.
The raid on the Wildlings camp only lasted one morning, and it ended after lunch, seemingly without much effort.
But Stag Party is not Night's Watch, it has been stationed in Wall. They set off from Dragonstone, drifted on the sea for several months, and crossed the sea road to Eastwatch.
This is beyond the wall where the temperature is minus ten degrees at night!
And Stag Party, all southerners, traveled 250 kilometers in the World of Ice and Snow, and finally came outside the Wildlings camp.
But in order to ensure the suddenness of the sneak attack, they must enter the Haunted Forest in the middle of the night, circle a large circle, and hide the cavalry team behind the Wildlings camp...
In this way, they fought fiercely for another morning, and sadly they were torn apart by hundreds of Giants and two hundred heavily armored cavalry.
Afterwards, they took prisoners, cleaned the battlefield, treated the wounded... At night, they had to burn the bodies of the dead and were ridiculed by the Dragon Queen. They were too tired, physically and mentally exhausted, Not even the energy to do crafty plots and machinations.
Therefore, when the cries, curses, and fights came from the camp outside the city, the Stag Party Knight was still asleep; when the Night's Watch blew three horns and went to King Stannis for help, the fans Second Stag, staggering out of bed, refused Pomegranate without the slightest hesitation.
"I don't care whether Wildlings live or die, but I also understand that Wildlings can be resurrected after death. The more Wildlings die at this time, the greater the trouble in the future. But yesterday's battle, the cavalry under my command ran out of energy and could not survive. After two or three days, I can't get over it.
Also, it's hard to tell the enemy's situation at night, what if the Others army is ambushed by the side?" Stannis bit his cheek and said ugly complexion.
As one of the top three players in Westeros (by Barristan), Second Stag understands the truth of "knowing the enemy and yourself will get you unscathed through a hundred battles".
He and his Knight had never fought Others before, and certainly wouldn't want to hand over the first time in such a daze.
In case oneself's more than 1,000 cavalry are under Wall (like the Dothraki screamer under Mother of Dragons in the last season of "Game of Thrones"), how can he have the capital to be Child of Prophecy?
Bowen Marsh had no choice but to leave the Lord Commander's Tower, climb up the city wall, and urged the trumpeter to blow the trumpet hard, but couldn't stop for a moment.
"I just hope Daenerys Your Majesty can hear the trumpet and bring the dragons to help," he said helplessly to the one-armed Donal.
At the end, he seemed to have a feeling: "The king of dragons is the True Dragon!"
......
Dany The new Wildlings camp accommodates more than 12,000 wildlings who are fleeing. They are not yet within the wall Wildlings, and they are not sure where they will go in the future: or continue to be Wildlings, or go to the other side of the Narrow Sea with Dragon Queen to beg for food, or work for Night's Watch. , lend oneself out.
But since Dany had secured them from Second Stag, she would not let it go and let more than 10,000 people rot under Wall - she always despised Wildlings' chaotic management and no social system, Disorganized and lawless.
Barristan started picking up Wildlings in the morning and kept busy until sunset.
According to Dany's instructions, he temporarily registered the Wildlings in the camp according to tribes, customs and regions. The camp is divided into 12 areas, divided into twelve thousand-person battallions, one hundred and twenty hundred-person platoons, and 1200 ten-person squares.
Thousand Man Leader, Hundred Man Leader, or Ten Man Leader are all elected by Wildlings oneself, Dragon Queen and Barristan are not involved.
Except Thousand Man Leader needs to report to Barristan and Dragon Queen - recognize faces, other Captain's appointment and dismissal do not even need to notify Dany.
So the camp didn't collapse when the Wights hit.
"huhuhu..."
As the first group of Wights with blue eyes appeared on the edge of the woods, the wind rose flat and wrapped around people's bodies like poisonous snakes , take away the body temperature.
Then, the silver-gray sky dimmed, like a veil covering the full moon in the sky.
The wind blows, bringing a milk-white mist to the camp.
"Be careful, those ghosts are coming!" Morna, who was stationed beside pyre, woke up from a drowsiness, picked up the lance beside him, and called out to all around Wildlings.
"What?" Ygon Oldfather on the other side didn't react at first, but he only looked up into the woods, and the densely packed dead eyes flashing ice blue made him hit immediately. shiver.
“dang dang dang dang ——” He frantically banged the gong beside him, and while running towards the camp, he shouted: “The Wights are coming, the Wights army is coming! Get up, everyone! Stop sleeping, hundreds of thousands of dead people, immediately, burn wood, tents, oil drums, hurry up!"
After a while, Val started running around the camp on a horse: "Child With the old man, go to the city wall, the good guys and Spearwife follow me to pyre."
Wildlings have far more experience with Wights than Night's Watch, they have been dealing with Others for several years.
At least the psychological quality passed the test, and the team did not collapse.
When the first batch of about 400 Wights with icy blue eyes came out of the woods, Morna, Ygon, Great Walrus, Val, four Wildlings Thousand Man Leaders had already led more than 1,000 The Wildlings, with pyre as their stronghold, formed the first line of defense in front of the new camp.
Fortunately, in order to reduce the amount of engineering, pyre used local materials and built it in the old camp.
Backed by the forest, it is convenient for logging and collecting firewood, and it is also convenient for collecting corpses from the old camp. The old camp was opposite the new camp, right in the way of the Others.
Well, Wights aren't stupid, they bypass the pyre with its residual heat and charcoal.
"What's the matter?" Ygon Oldfather, with torch in left hand and bronze machete in right hand, looked at the blue-eyed Wights that gathered more and more east of pyre, and broke out in a cold sweat in the cold wind.
Ygon is the leader of a Wildlings tribe, he has eighteen wives, and his children are too many to count - he is not even sure and doesn't care how many belong to him, so he got the "Oldfather" "The nickname.
Because he had too many wives and children, and it was too difficult to support his family, he did not escape into the forest, but joined a new camp, ready to go to the other side of the Narrow Sea to fight.
"No, there's something wrong with the situation, why didn't they just rush over like before, what are they waiting for?"
He had already guessed what Wights was waiting for, but the truth was too terrifying, he desperately expects different answers from his peers.
Val immediately and grimly dispels Ygon Oldfather's fantasy: "There are White Walkers, White Walkers are controlling them, and it's waiting for all the Wights in the woods to come out and come at us."
"Damn, didn't the Dragon Queen just catch the White Walkers? Why did the White Walkers come this way instead?" Great Walrus yelled.
Great Walrus is the leader of the Frozen Shore seamen tribe, a big bearded man who looks like Hagrid in Harry Potter.
As early as the tripartite talks, he was convinced by Dragon Queen.
If Mance Rayder hadn't brought up Clause 3 of the Tripartite Loan Agreement (no need to sign the agreement right away, Wildlings was allowed to wait and see), he would have signed the agreement long ago.
"Night's Watch is blowing the horn desperately, it should be for the summon Dragon Queen." Val mused.
"Will the Night's Watch come out? That Red God King, doesn't he have armored cavalry? It's time for them to come out and break up the ranks of the dead." Spearwife Morna, wearing a white Weirwood mask, said .
Morna is the leader of a small tribe and is ineligible for the tripartite talks. But she's still a Sorcerer, IQ online, awe-inspiring, and one of the first to sign a lease with Dragon Queen.
"Don't think about it, the city gate is tightly closed and no one comes out. King of the red heart of flames will not care about Free Folk's life or death." Val shook his head.
"Watch out, they're coming!" one Wildlings shouted sharply.
The corpse on the opposite side didn't shout. In fact, apart from the sound of running fast in the mud, the Legion of thousands of people didn't make any extra sound.
Their movements are frighteningly fast, and they don't have the crooked, bumpy bumps of zombies at all, and are almost the same as the running speed of ordinary people.
As the Wights approached, gusts of cold wind blew away the hairs of the Wildlings first, the ice was biting, and the flames on the torch shrank abruptly.
"Kill!" Oldfather roared, pulling the blue-eyed Wights from the torch in his hand.
"bang!" In the middle of the one-armed Wights' face, the kerosene on the torch stuck to its face, and in the blink of an eye, the whole head "beep beep beep" burned, and the fire even went down the body spread.
Wights are extremely flammable, as if their skin were oil-soaked cloth.
Oldfather lifted his right foot and slammed it into Wights' belly.
"bang!" flew in mid-air, and the Wights, which burned into a torch, burst into two pieces and fell on the two running Wights.
"Boom, bang!" is another two torches.
“Haha, chops, go to hell!” Great Walrus laughed triumphantly.
"puff!" air-splitting sound, a cold light hit him.
Oldfather was really experienced, and did not use the torch held in his left hand to block the opponent's weapon, the bronze knife in his right hand suddenly lifted up, ushering in the past.
"ka!" Senbai's cold light drew an arc in the air with almost no hesitation, a paragraph of bronze knife, the expression on Oldfather's face solidified, and a line of blood slipped from the eyebrows to the chin.
"Pu pass!" The decades-old Oldfather fell to the ground, his hands and feet twitched a few times... and soon struggled to get up again.
"呲——" The torch held in the left hand swayed... extinguished.
"——" There was no pain, but the same face, from the eyebrows to the tip of the nose, the lips divided into two, to the square chin, there was a coagulated blood line.
He held the fire-extinguishing stick in his left hand, and the bronze knife with a broken blade in his right hand, turned around, and looked at Morna not far away...
