The Winter of Ice and Fire Is Coming

Chapter 397: The Northern Army's Southern Expedition and the Aegis Armed Appear

(2 in 1)

*

In May of the 299th year of Aegon's calendar, Winterfell in the North was packed with armies of major lords. There are too many people, Winterfell City suddenly seems so small, and the winter town outside the city is also full of people. Every day, knights under different lords fight each other, or because of a ridicule, a contemptuous look, Or a camp prostitute, with a sarcastic ridicule, they drew their swords in the street and splashed five steps with blood.

Thanks to Robb and Will's strict military discipline, no killings occurred.

This expedition is different. The Southern Tyrell family is second only to the West in the wealthy land, with richer products. In Stannis’s call, this time the southern expedition is dominated by people from the North, and other troops are attached. This is an excellent opportunity to make a fortune.

Each lord received a letter from the Raven in Winterfell, clearly specifying the number of people participating in the war. The bachelors of Winterfell are considered dead for the combat power of the lords. This time the drafting specifications far exceed those of the battle for the West.

To Robber's surprise, the nobles in the north responded one after another.

In the western conquest, the nobles in the north gained a lot. The land of the Lannister family in the west was scraped off by everyone. The soldiers on the expedition were also very satisfied. This led to the call for this conquest. Very positive response.

The army organization, logistical food and grass, weapons and armor rest, and soldier recruitment, which took at least one month to complete, were completed in only 20 days this time, and it was also the busy sowing season in the autumn.

Long summer is over, before winter comes, this may be the last harvest season.

The nobles fought for the sake of gain and power; the knights under their banners fought in the same way. The biggest attraction of soldiers fighting for their lives is that they can make a fortune after bleeding and sweating.

In the last battle, the huge wealth accumulated by Lannister and the nobles in the West just happened to satisfy everyone's pursuit.

There will be no less rewards for this battle in Tyrell. This is the final battle of the general trend of the world. After the war, Stannis I unified the seven kingdoms. The noble knights would have no chance to fight anymore. Just like the first king Robert, after the war, the seven kingdoms had nothing to do with the soldiers, and the soldiers returned to the field. Today, there is 16 peace. year.

Once there is no war, there are few opportunities to get rich.

Many proletarian knights have also lost the destiny of changing their Hegar family through military exploits.

At the end of May 299 of the Aegon calendar, headed by the 16-year-old Robb Stark and the leader of the Great Wall, Will, the two commanders led an army of nearly 30,000 from the north to the south and set off along King’s Road towards Junlin City. .

In the team, the strength of the Great Wall of Extremis was only a hundred, which was completely ignored. However, Will has a special identity. He is the most respected Chosen of the Stark family and the son of prophecy. In the last battle of the Western Territory, Will was the one who won the first and surprising victory.

Will and Robb led the army together, and none of the proud nobles in the North stood up to oppose them. It is not easy for the nobles in the north to recognize it. People in the North are very stubborn, just like the cold weather and frozen soil in the North; the people in the North are also very proud. People who don't have real skills, and those who don't understand the harshness of ice and snow, they will never surrender.

The Great Wall of Extremis did not send a real army to fight this time, but the nobles in the north felt more comfortable, just like a belligerent general, no one likes other people to share their achievements on the table with themselves.

This is a war where you can get rich rewards if you stand up.

The Northern Territory mobilized its greatest energy, mobilized much more military power than it did during the battle in the Western Territory, and drained the largest blood volume in the Northern Territory. After the flag was sacrificed, the army went south.

The Bear Island of the Mormont Family in Frost Bay, the Deep Forest Castle of the Wolfwood Glover Family, the Hearth City of the Amber Family at the far north, the Cahor City of the Kastark Family, the horror of the Ruth Bolton Family Fort, the Torun city of the Taoha family, and the winter city of the Stark family have almost become empty cities-except for the most basic guards, all the troops that can fight are coming out...

The Stark family was loved by two generations of kings of the Baratheon family. Ed Stark was also named the hand of the eternal king. This time, the civil war of the unity of the seven countries was put down. Ed Shi in the north Tucker is the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, and the army in the north is also a well-deserved protagonist.

The team passed through Kalin Bay, and it took half a month to cross the very difficult neck.

Neckze is a swamp land about two hundred miles away. People who are not familiar with this land cannot pass through the neckze. This marshland is unfathomable, no matter how many troops can swallow it, there is no trace in the end. This is a moving swamp, the scenery you see will completely change in a few days. The vines clearly in the east drifted to the west, while the duckweed in the south disappeared inexplicably and replaced by a waterland.

And the more the number of people, the slower the walk at the neck.

Historically, no invading army has conquered the neck.

The invasion of the ancestors and the invasion of the Andals were both blocked by the Stark family. This is also the reason why the people of the Northern Territory have maintained the ancient and traditional belief in the old gods. Until the people of the Targaryen family rode a dragon across the neck...

The northern army crossed the neck and came to the vassal of the Tuli family in the Hejian area-the domain of the Frey family. The current patriarch of the Frey family in Luanhecheng is Sir Steve Lun Frey, De Frey's eldest son.

After Wald Frey was pinched to death by Will and Osha, the 60-year-old Steve Lun Frey was the heir in line. He became the lord of Luanhe City and the patriarch of the Frey family.

This time the army didn't have to cross Luanhe City and went directly south along King's Avenue. The famous Green Fork River is on the right side of the army, and the mountains and woods are on the left.

Will and Robb walked in front of the line. Jon, Ygritte, Harris Moran, Ding Dong, Black Ya and Abel, and Blake the Faceless Man in charge of the Ravens of the Great Wall Legion disguised as a bachelor apprentice followed Will and Robb. Around.

After these people, there are two hundred guards.

Will's two griffins have grown bigger, and they eat astonishing food every day. They like to eat **** horse meat. Unlike other birds that are born to fly, griffins need to practice flying.

Strictly speaking, griffins are not birds, but flying beasts, just like dragons.

The size of the flames and the aquamarine was more than twice the size of the raven, the eyes became more colorful, and the feathers became brighter. The two siblings are trying hard to learn to fly. They can't fly in the sky for a long time, they grow too fast but their wings appear to be insufficiently powerful, and their flying height is limited. The young griffon at this time is the most vulnerable.

The archer's arrow can shoot them, killing them.

For a domestic griffin, the owner must use a bird pole to drive it to fly continuously. As long as it falls to the ground, run to drive it, let it fly into the sky again and again.

Will brought two griffins, no matter where he went, they were the focus of everyone's eyes.

Griffons are flying mounts brought by the Andals from across the narrow sea. The valley lord, the Ailin family relied on the power of the griffins to conquer the valley, and built the family castle on the mountain top of the giant's gun. The name is Eagle's Nest City.

A scout in front rushed back, and above his head, two griffins were flying back with him.

When Will reached out and let the flames and azurite fall on his arm, the scout jumped off the horse.

"Master Robb, Master Will, another believer who had been hanged was found in the woods ahead. They were all barefoot, wearing linen gowns, with red seven-pointed stars on their left chest, just like the ones they found a few days ago. "The scout said.

"How many believers are there this time?"

"More than thirty, adults; there are males and females. They are pierced with daggers, daggers, sickles, hoes, and some headshot bodies have wooden sticks tied to them."

In the past few days, scouts have been sweeping along the road, and they have found believers wearing seven-pointed stars who have been hanged in the woods for three consecutive days.

"It must be someone from the Frey family." Will said in a deep voice.

Seven-pointed star, the communicator of the seven gods. The kingdoms on the neckze all believe in the Seven Gods. The belief in the Seven Gods is the main belief of people outside the northern border.

The center of the faith of the Seven Gods is the Baylor Church in Junlin City.

Jon said, "Why did the Foley family hang the seven monks?"

Robb, Will, Jon, Harris and others all have this question.

The Faith in the Seven Gods is also the Faith of the Frey Family, and they have no reason to hang the monks who preach the Seven Gods.

"What do you think is the reason? Lord Will." Robb asked calmly.

"Unless the belief in the Seven Gods threatens the interests of the Frey family." Will said pensively.

"Seven gods monks have nothing to do with the world," Robb said.

"I think we'd better send someone to Luanhe City to inquire." Will said, "This is too strange."

"I'm going!" Jon said immediately.

"I'll go with you." Huo Kiss Ygritte immediately followed up.

Will said, "Okay, you take ten people."

The team continued to move forward, half an hour later, another scout in front ran back.

"My lord, in the woods ahead, hundreds of believers of the Seven Gods holding hoes, knives, forks, sticks, and rusty hatchets were found. They were dressed in rags and barefoot. There were men and women, just like a group of beggars. They Full of hostility towards us." The scout said immediately. The horse ran panting, the scout controlled the rein, the horse was still kicking and turning in circles.

"Don't conflict with them," Will said.

"Yes, my lord!" The scout beat his horse and ran back.

Harris Moran said, "My lord, I'll take a centurion team to check it out."

Will and Robb nodded together.

Robb said: "Don't conflict with them."

"Yes, my lord. But what if they attack us?"

"Then catch a few people and ask why." Will said.

"Yes, my lord."

Tens of thousands of troops from the north are going south, and if a group of beggar-like combat power dares to challenge, then it is really impatient to live.

Harris Moran led a centuries of northern cavalry rushed out.

The griffin on Will's arm also flew up, making a sound of gold and iron, and flew into the air. Their screams startled the birds and beasts in the woods on the left to flee.

"Master Will, what do the monks of the Seven Gods want to do? They always have weapons on their bodies. Their weapons are the Seven Gods Bible and prayers."

"They are developing their own weapons." Will suddenly understood. The benefits of the traverser hadn't been used up yet, he suddenly understood why there were so many seven monks hanged in the woods.

Those people are dressed in ragged clothes, bare feet, and weapons are anything that can be found. In addition to the Seven Gods monks, they have another name: Sparrow!

Will's heart was shocked.

If the sparrow's power has developed to the upper reaches of the Green Fork River, then the land of the king's territory must already be like a cloud of believers. Will's face suddenly condensed.

"Rob, do you know that Baylor's Great Sanctuary once had Holy Sword and Holy Shield weapons?"

Robb shocked: "Master Will, I have read the history books about the Holy Sword and the Holy Shield." As Robb trained by Ed Stark as the heir since childhood, he was asked to learn the Seven Kingdoms since he was a child. History is inevitable.

"The Holy Sword Armed Forces is composed of knights who'donate all their land and property to the church.' The only thing they must be loyal to is their belief in the Seven Gods, and they will never forgive anyone who dares to oppose them. The Holy Shield is It is composed of civilians, homeless people, farmers who have lost their land, and other free people. They call themselves sparrows and promote the beliefs of the Seven Gods to help the poor spare no effort, but as long as they grab a weapon, they are the Aegis of the church. They are numerous in number. The poor have high prestige."

"The Baylor Church will not be allowed to have the Holy Sword and the Holy Shield. Meri I cancelled their armed power. Every generation of kings is like this. Anyone sitting on the Iron Throne will not allow the Baylor Church. Develop your own weapons." Robb said.

"That's history, now times have changed." Will said in a deep voice.

"Stannis I will not allow Baylor to develop arms. He believes in the Red God, and Melisandre is equivalent to his national teacher." Will said, "Melisandre's belief in the Red God will not allow Baylor’s Great Church develops believers and armed forces. She will even issue laws through Stannis I to restrict the development and growth of Baylor’s Great Church."

"Maybe the curse is Melisandre," Will said, hitting the nail on the head.

Meili Shandro developed the belief in the Red God in King’s Landing, which had a huge impact on the belief in the Seven Gods. It belongs to the belief of the Seven Gods like the state religion. How could it be possible to allow a foreign priest in red to develop the belief in the Red God in King’s Landing, but Mei Li Sandra has the support of Stannis I, and Baylor's Great Sanctuary can only subdue.

Since it cannot develop in the royal capital, then leave the royal capital and develop well outside. As long as he has the arms, it is possible to drive away the Red God priest Melisandre.

This is a new situation. In the previous world trajectory, there was no conflict and dispute between the beliefs of the Red God and the Seven Gods.

Robb said, "Are we going to come back to deal with the Seven Gods monks after we finish playing Tyrell?"

The belief in the Seven Gods has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people for thousands of years. Under this kind of public opinion, Will felt a chill on his back. Unless, as in the previous world trajectory, the Baylor Cathedral is bombed with wildfire, and the archbishop and the bishop, as well as their elites, are swept away.

With the sound of horseshoes, the scout came back again: "Master Will, more monks of the Seven Gods were found in the woods ahead. The captain chased up and asked the monks why they had gathered. They still had weapons in their hands. They claimed to be temple sparrows. The depths of the woods retreated."

"Go tell Harris and your captain, as long as the sparrows don't take the initiative to attack us, we should not provoke them." Will ordered.

"Yes, my lord!"
