Bran, Robb suddenly shouted

"Father wants you to take out your horse, and we will go to the watchtower in a moment, where a night watch deserter has been caught, and father will execute him".

Here it is, it looks like the Night's Watch Ranger has been caught

Bran let go of Arya,

"I'm going to the watchtower, you stay at home obediently, I'll shoot a rabbit when I come back at night, you prepare flint and salt foam, let's eat roast rabbit in the old place of Shenmu Forest."

"I know, you're old enough to see your head cut off, and your father never let me and Sansa see it." Little Lori Arya pouted. "Said ladies can't look at this."

There was a big drop of cold sweat on Bran's skull, how to say it seemed to be something beautiful, I didn't want to look at it at all?

But whether it is the Middle Ages in Europe, or our ancient Celestial Empire, it seems that the people's greatest entertainment is to watch the execution of prisoners, our country location is not in the vegetable market entrance is the noon gate, the noon gate Bran does not know what it means, but it is understandable, probably what is the name of the place, it should not be the city gate, the city gate is like that, the noon gate is about noon is a very sunny place, Bran guessed blindly, but the location of the vegetable market Bran is very incomprehensible, if someone goes to the Wal-Mart supermarket to buy vegetables in modern society, By the way, I watched a beheading or something, I don't know if I'm in the mood to cook and eat when I go home.

Is it for the convenience of the big guys (erhuayin, referring to everyone, the meaning of the public, Northeast vernacular, explain)

Okay, the brackets are too long, I'll repeat, is it to make it easier for the big guys to dip some blood in the steamed buns after buying them in the market? Bran remembered that there used to be a textbook about human blood steamed buns, which showed the ignorance of the people, saying that human blood steamed buns could cure tuberculosis. Or, in ancient times, it was still popular to cut the prisoner directly into meat slices, and everyone took it back to the hot pot without buying meat dishes? Bran couldn't figure out why he was at the entrance of the market. Is there such a lack of meat to eat?

In the Middle Ages in Europe, it was also popular to see the execution of prisoners, and the location may also be in the downtown area, it should be a square, Bran summed up three ways of execution, beheading, which is the most common, the executor wears a black mask and wears like a thief to chop, it is said that a certain English king, there are too many beheadings, and there are not enough executioners to execute, and a single-blade headhopper was invented. A basket is installed under the head chopper, and it will fall into the basket directly after cutting.

The second type, hanging, this is called hanging, this is to make people stand on a high platform, wrap a hemp rope around their necks, hang on a high platform, there are movable planks underneath, cut the rope of the movable plank, the person hangs, it is said that in the Victorian era, when the prisoner's feet fell and hung in the air, the crowd would make a huge cheer, and I don't know what to be happy about.

The third is more cruel, the first two are at least no pain, the third is to deal with a specific group of people, witches, yes, burn directly, don't think that witches are just legends, in the European Middle Ages, farmers have bad crops, or today they are unlucky and lose money, they will think that it is a witch, so they will find the person he thinks is a witch, and burn them directly, yes, it is so cruel to women, the Celestial Empire also has a similar pig cage, a waterboard and a burning stake are also full of matching, but let's find a reason, cough cough. In the European Middle Ages, as long as it was considered a witch, it could be burned directly.

In the world of A Song of Ice and Fire, all three executions are present, the burning of the Holy Maiden of Light, the little princess of stone scales, the tribal witch who killed the horse king, the beheading of the Ranger, and Bran's now Daddy Ned Stark. The Night's Watch rebelled, and Snow was hanged. Another person who was burned at the stake was Tommen, the king of the Outer Fortresses, but not long after the burning began, Snow shot him to death with an arrow to prevent him from suffering too much.

This execution is the first heavy scene in the A Song of Ice and Fire TV series, Bran was thrilled when he watched it, and he felt slightly uncomfortable, well, this is a normal phenomenon, and he was happy after watching it, or enjoyed it, Bran felt that this person was afraid that he had an antisocial personality.

The place of execution was the watchtower, which was a watchtower built on high ground. In the high ground to prevent the enemy from invading, if there are savages or escaped night watchmen, it is more convenient to directly catch them and cut off their heads, so a wooden platform is placed here that the neck can just be put down, here is a mountain and water, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and it is an excellent place to bury bones, well, an excellent place to bury bones needs to be considered.

How to get there? After leaving Winterfell, walking north, about half an hour on horseback, you can see the watchtower.

To the north of the watchtower, there is an endless prairie, because the climate is cold, there is no water source, so the grass grows very dry yellow and low, there is no feeling of wind blowing grass and seeing cattle and sheep, but it is a bit like desertification of saline-alkali land, fortunately the animal husbandry in this world is not very developed, there is no trend of desertification here.

The watchtower is to prevent the wildlings in the direction of the Tough Tun to the west, they can swim around the Desperate Wall and cross this side to hunt wild food, there are still a few villages north of Winterfell that need to be protected, unlike the Mole Village on the Night's Watch, these villages are the fiefdoms of Winterfell.

Built on this high ground, it is difficult for either the night watchman deserter or the savage army to escape the observation of the sentinels, this is close to the King's Road, if you want to go south, you must pass through here, you say not to go here? Non-existent, overgrown black pine forests can completely disorient you, and the bitter cold, snow will kill everyone who traverses the jungle.

Bran finally understands why there are so many fortresses in ancient times, the soldiers must fight for the land, you no longer go on the main road, the natural environment alone can have a probability of killing you more than 90 percent, if there is a fortress, it is better to go around than to capture it, you can live to provide for it, go around the past and do not take the road to drill the forest, nature will make you understand what cruelty is.

Of course, there are still a few wild people who swim around the Great Wall of Desperation every year, after all, there is no difference between this and swimming in the sea to bypass the glacier on the Arctic continent, the wild man is just a wild man, not the White Bird Saint Seiya Glacier, nor a seal, more people climb the city wall to climb over the Great Wall of Desperation, this situation The night watchman can see it on the Great Wall of ice, and will also light a beacon to notify the watchtower, so that Winterfell and the night watchman can fight back and forth. Anyway, did the savages live a little miserable? Bran rode his horse, his mind slowly emptying his mind.

They are also considered to be part of the Northland, and the giants also participated in the construction of the Great Wall of Desperation, so why can't I see them after they are inside the Great Wall? There's an inside story here. His tall servant, Ado, is said to have giant blood, but it is already thin, which shows that this species can intermarry with humans. It stands to reason that the Lord of Winterfell is the Stark family, and according to the upright character of this family for generations, there is no reason to suppress the giant clan, could it be that these giants are still frost giants, and they can't survive on this side of the Great Wall?

If Bran, even in order to create a strong army, must encourage the giants to play with their lives, whether they are mixed or not, as long as they are still as strong as Ado, then wouldn't there be heavy infantry? Moreover, population is a huge sign of the improvement of comprehensive national strength.

Then take all the wild people outside the Great Wall to the Great Wall, so that the strange ghosts have no new members to add, and then take the giants as the vanguard and the giant dragon as the main attacker step by step, compress the living space of the strange ghosts little by little, and finally chase them to the end of the continent to completely eliminate them, which is better than building the Great Wall and guarding it for generations, right?

In the end, the children of the forest were afraid that the humans would attack them after the victory, and launched ice magic to seal the north of the Great Wall, and those wild people were actually the descendants of the human alliance back then, and the Great Wall was not built to resist the ghosts, but to prevent the cold current in the north from freezing the entire continent?

It's not that there is no possibility, this continent is set very strangely, the winter will last for years, even decades, it is not caused by the frozen magic of these children of the forest, and the ghosts are also created by them, they don't look like good people, the old man Martin gave them a bit like the American Indians, the land was occupied by the whites, so they took revenge, went down to voodoo, and lowered their heads, and the children of the forest were also occupied by the ancestors, and the trees were cut down by the ancestors, so they made strange ghosts in a frenzy.?

?? Of course, there is also a possibility that before the ghosts were completely eradicated, the human race began to split and snatch the fruits of victory. As a result, the coalition forces were unable to march westward. had to build the Great Wall to keep the land in hand, and then each family sent people to be the black-clad night watchman, swearing that the battle on the continent would have nothing to do with it from now on, and the families who failed the struggle were exiled to the north of the Great Wall as savages. Some exiled families have resentment, so they left to sacrifice their children to the ghosts, well, this possibility must be there, in line with human nature, I think that the skinheads just didn't wait for the footbasin chicken to surrender, and began to snatch the fruits of victory, and all kinds of armies occupied the city, fortunately, my Taizu strategized, so he was not succeeded, the kind of upright boy of the Stark family, how to play too much under the Six Kingdoms, if it weren't for the fact that the Stark family was left with the ghosts, it is estimated that the clan would have been wiped out long ago. No wonder the ancestral training is left, Ling Dong is coming, and he dares to know that the strange ghosts have not been eliminated

The third possibility is not big, this may be four words to put it bluntly, raising Kou is self-respecting, that is, the ancestors of the Stark family did not want to eliminate the ghosts, build a city and guard, this is no different from the warlord general army at the end of the Ming Dynasty, when the border army raised Huang Taiji, didn't it just want military salary, but it turned out to be free, this possibility, for the Stark family who are all upright boys, it is unlikely.

Bran shook his head, no longer thinking, and suddenly, the horse stopped, and looked up, the watchtower was already close in sight, although Bran had emptied himself along the way. But in fact, the system has been let control their own body to drive the horse, choose the automatic follow function, just follow their father's side, it is really convenient, riding a horse can also be in a daze, if under normal circumstances, he would have fallen off the horse, before the crossing heard that major car manufacturers are studying automatic driving technology, he this automatic riding following technology, I don't know if the research can be studied.
