Chapter 645: The Great War Is Imminent (2200 Equals)

"It's not easy, it's much harder than going west of Westeros." Shen Long smiled and shook his head, "Okay, you should rest, let's start a new day of practice!" ”

After Littlefinger's death, the nobles of the Vale still did not leave, they all believed that the Wraiths were about to go south, and for the safety of the entire continent of Westeros, they were willing to stay in Winterfell to help the Stark family in the defense, or for their own sake, but then again, the terrain of the Vale seemed to be more suitable for defensive warfare than Winterfell.

When the time comes, the ghouls will have to squeeze along the narrow passages, and Winterfell is on a plain, easily surrounded by an army of strangers; But there are still so many people in the north, and if the army leaves, they will have to wait for death, and even if they can finally defeat the strangers, the north will be finished.

Now that Winterfell has begun to build various fortifications, Cobain commanded the soldiers of Winterfell to install the giant crossbow on the city wall, and when the first giant crossbow was made, Sansa and Master Walken recognized Cobain's ability and began to draw more manpower and material resources to help him, but now the crossbow arrows have not yet been installed, and the dragon crystal of Dragonstone Island has not been sent over for the time being.

Outside the city walls, Lyanna-Mormont, Bronze Jonn and others were digging a trench, and Shen Long and Cobain changed the defense plan together, no longer digging only one trench, but changing it to a multi-layered trench, and the strange ghost broke through the first and second lanes, and this plan was approved by Bronze Jörn.

Of the remaining nobles in Winterfell, Bronze Jon has the most military experience, and he has always had a good relationship with the Starks, being Ned's brother in the Vale, and the Royces were married to the Starks, so Sansa is willing to follow his advice in any way.

As a result, the construction of a more complete city defense system than the original book began, and when the trench was dug up, not only would the horses be installed inside, but also the wildfires created by Cobain would be arranged in order to inflict maximum damage on the ghouls.

In addition, Shen Long also suggested that the Amber family should withdraw from the last Hearthplace in advance and take everyone to Winterfell for refuge, which would not only increase the strength of Winterfell's side, but also reduce the number of ghouls.

Sansa was hesitant at first, but Sansa changed her mind after Maester Walken handed her a letter from Raven, in which Jon told Sansa that at the Dragon's Lair meeting, Jon showed Jaime and Euron the ghouls he had just captured.

After meeting the ghouls, Jaime was persuaded by Tyrion to lead a large army to the north for reinforcements, but Euron decisively left Blackwater Bay with the fleet, and it is not known whether he would return to the Iron Islands or go to Essos to hire the Golden Regiment.

"The Lannisters, Daenerys' Dothraki cavalry, and the Unsullied, there are suddenly so many more people in the north, how can the food problem be solved?" This news made Sansa both happy and a little worried, happy that there were so many more reinforcements, and worried that there was not enough food to eat, the north was already very cold, the food production was not high, and suddenly there were so many people, it was indeed not easy to feed them.

"With all due respect, you need not worry about this matter, as long as the food can hold out until the arrival of the army of strangers; If this battle is lost, I believe that everyone will no longer have to worry about eating, and if they win, I think their need for food will also be greatly reduced. Shen Long said.

If you lose the battle, everyone hangs up, so naturally you don't have to worry about what to eat, even if you can win, you will definitely lose a lot, and the food is estimated to be enough for those who are still alive.

"Your words are cruel and true." Sansa responds, and she immediately orders Ned Amber to return to the Last Hearthplace and bring Amber's soldiers, people, horses, and food to Winterfell.

Speaking of which, Shen Long wanted to complain about the original plot again, as mentioned earlier, it was at least two thousand kilometers from King's Landing to Winterfell, and it would take at least a month for the army to march, so didn't Jon write a letter to Sansa for such a long time? Remind her to gather the people of the north early?

It took Daenerys' army to think about it when they arrived, was it because Jon and Sansa didn't have enough brains, or did the army open any door like Varys? Can teleport in Westeros?

Also, the final season of the seventh season of the Wraiths resurrected Veserion, why did they wait so long to get to Winterfell? The journey from the Wall of Desperation to Winterfell was much closer than the north from King's Landing to Winterfell, and the Wraiths didn't have to eat or rest, so why did they move slower than Daenerys' army? Could it be that if the screenwriter doesn't let them go, they won't dare to go?

The defense system outside Winterfell is getting better and better day by day, the trench has been dug three times, blocking the way south to Winterfell from the north, and the sea ships have also begun to transport Dragon Crystal from Dragonstone Island, Cobain and Shen Long study the characteristics of Dragon Crystal together, and discuss what kind of weapons should be made with Dragon Crystal.

Shen Long also got himself some dragon crystal weapons, so that adding a Mithril weapon would not be effective against strangers or ghouls, and he could also have an alternative weapon, in addition, Shen Long was still a little curious, and he didn't know what the reaction would be to use the turtle wave qigong to fight the strangers.

At last, Daenerys landed with his army from White Harbor in a sea ship, and they traveled north along the White-Fork River, soon approaching Winterfell; To the south, Jaime's Lannister army crossed the Neck and would arrive in Winterfell after Daenerys.

It is said that His Excellency Lord Edmus-Tully also wanted to lead the army of the Riverlands into the war, but the Freys had just been dealt with by Arya, and the Riverlands had been in shambles, and the Duke of Edmure had not been able to gather enough soldiers, and Sansa politely declined Edmure's kindness.

Maybe she thinks that her uncle brings people over, except for wasting more food, it seems to have no other effect, and it is a good thing that he does not come.

On this day, the soldiers of House Stark returned to report that Queen Daenerys' army was about to arrive in Winterfell, and Sansa had led many nobles from the North and the Vale to the outside of the city to prepare to meet them.

Arya was supposed to stand with those nobles, but Arya refused the suggestion, she quietly hid among the ordinary people, and Shen Long was with her, he was curious about the difference between the real dragon and what he saw on the screen.

Soon, the sound of neat footsteps was remembered in the distance, and the silent army of the Unsullied arrived, followed by the sound of scattered horses' hooves, and the Dothraki cavalry also came, and the battle between the living and the king was about to begin.
