Chapter 122

"What kind of identity are you using to talk to me?" Celine's face remained unchanged, and she turned her head to continue questioning Jon Snow.

“.…..” Jon was at a loss for words. It's just that at this time, Sam beside him spoke. "Jon Snow is the rookie commander-in-chief of the Night's Watch. He hoped that the Duke would raise his noble hand and let go of these impulsive brothers. ”

Sam is a very smart fat guy. Just for a long time, his fat body. and a cowardly personality, which makes him seem very clumsy. But clumsiness doesn't mean low IQ. In fact, Sam is probably the smartest person in the entire army of Night Watchmen. With the election of a new commander-in-chief of the Night's Watch just around the corner, it's time for Jon to gain prestige.

Most of the Night's Watch present were not Jon's supporters. But at this time, someone stood up and spoke for them, and they couldn't ask for it. Even if he was not interested, he was pulled by his companions.

They knew that Jon, even if he was an illegitimate child, was better than them. I grew up in an aristocratic family. At this time, it must be much stronger than they argue.

"Really? The night watchman guarded the northern frontier for countless years for the Seven Kingdoms. As the commander-in-chief of the Night's Watch, you have the right to negotiate terms with me. If you want me to let them go, they can. But you must promise me one condition on behalf of the Night's Watch. ”

"Of course, sir. Please state your conditions. Jon breathed a sigh of relief. It's good if there are conditions, at least there is something to talk about. Those who were detained were the elite of the Night's Watch. With so many people lost at once, the whole camp would fall into a state of emptiness.

"I want you to let Mansred go, and go with him to the wildling camp and build an alliance."

With a bang, the whole camp exploded. The Night's Watch have been at odds with the Wildlings for thousands of years, and now they are being asked to ally with the Wildlings. Hundreds of night watchmen exploded in an instant. They can't accept this kind of thing. There is such a thing as a blood feud, which cannot be offset with a single sentence.

"Looks like your people don't agree with me. That's simple, Sir Daves, clean up the Night's Watch camp. Then change to a new batch. ”

When he said this, Daves was stunned for a moment. Because Celine's words are to kill the entire Night's Watch camp. This iron-blooded command is unimaginable to come out of the mouth of a little girl. He couldn't help but look at the beautiful woman standing beside Celine. The witch turned this eight-year-old girl into an iron-blooded duke in just one night.

"Yes, my lord." Although Daves mentally questioned the order. But a qualified knight will not question his master in front of everyone.

With Daves' order, more soldiers gathered around. In fact, Stannis left behind only about 10,000 soldiers. This is also the reason why he wants to recruit wild people, and the troops are insufficient. But even if it's less than 10,000 people, that's the number that crushes the Night's Watch. At the same time, these soldiers were well armed, and there were elite cavalry of three thousand people. Annihilating the entire Night's Watch is a matter of minutes.

At one point, the tide reversed. The night watchman, who had just sworn that he was a savage and incompatible, instantly coaxed again.

In fact, some things are very simple, but no one has debunked them. Is the Night's Watch really a good army? Pure.

A team of rapists and murderers, except for swordsmanship training, there is no political ideological reform. There is only an empty oath to bind. Where did you tell that this was an army?

In the entire Night's Watch legion, except for Uncle Bunyan, Severed Colin, and Maester Amon, who are rare people with honor and justice, the others were forced to go up the walls. Savages will not show mercy to anyone who wears black robes. If you want to survive, you can only fight hard.

Do you have feelings between them? Of course there is, after all, they have carried guns together, prostitutes together, squatted through windows together, and the three irons are all together. But how deep is the feeling?

The so-called brotherhood of life and death has extremely high preconditions. First of all, the two are like-minded, and they are normally like-minded about justice and honor. Murderers are rapists, although they are similar, but they are obviously not really like-minded (maybe there are, but we can only believe that there are none).

Second, the purpose is the same, and this purpose must be some kind of macroscopic, higher purpose. It's all about surviving, and this is definitely not going to work. Because there are many stories that tell us the opposite. For example, I don't need to run faster than a bear, I just need to run faster than you.

The third is the unity of outlook on life, world outlook, and values. This is a combination of the above conditions.

In short, it is necessary to combine at least the above characteristics before there can be a life-and-death relationship between comrades-in-arms.

Having said all this, it is to argue that the night watchmen of this era are nothing more than a group of killers who lick blood from the knife edge. Others, honor, justice, affection, these things are basically not up to standard. These things are the reason why they quickly changed their minds. They don't defend the illusory with their swords.

Almost all of the night watchmen quickly threw away their swords. At the same time, he said that whatever Celine boss said was what he said. Even if I was to call the savage brother and sister right away, there would be no problem.

That's what they did in the original. Stannis wanted to recruit from the Savages, and none of the Night's Watch dared to fart. Jon Snow wanted to join forces with the wildlings, but most of them were against it.

At the end of the day, their opposition was never because of the Night's Watch creed. Rather, they felt that they could reap the benefits of a weak Jon Snow.

Later they killed Jon, and most of them went to their side. Jon then came back to life, and they turned back again, tying up several of the murderers and giving them to their commander-in-chief. Jon Snow may have been frustrated with the Night's Watch because of this.

The Night's Watch Legion that he had been thinking about since he was a child was not the army of justice and honor he imagined. On the contrary, this is a depraved mercenary group full of conspiracies, betrayals, and intrigue.

Seeing that no one objected, Celine spoke again.

"Very well, Jon Snow. Tomorrow Mansred will be back at the Savage camp opposite. When the time comes, you go back with him. I want you to make a formal pact with the leaders of the wild tribes. ”

Jon Snow and Sam are both a little blindsided. They just followed Sam's doctrine and came to brush up on their prestige to pave the way for the next commander-in-chief election.

But I didn't expect the commander-in-chief to get it directly, and there was a fatal errand that followed.
