Chapter 149: Spring
Lynn's army crossed the avenue outside Horwood, and did not choose to enter the city, which now belongs to the House of Mandalay, and Sir Wendell Mandalay stood on the highest tower in the city, with a bronze bell hanging from it.
Looking at the long army outside the city, Count Wendell Mandalay suddenly felt that the fear that had lingered in his heart in White Harbor had returned.
Wendell Mandalay worried, "Is Lynn here to search for the legacy of the Bunton family in the Fort of Terror?"
A few dozen miles north of Horwood City is the Terror Fortress, which is now the garrison of Shifu, the commander of the Shaw Cavalry and the commander of the Sweep Army, where Lynn sits.
Earl Wendell's cousin, the charming woman Lynn had seen in Carlin Bay, Donala Mandalay, had a snow-white and feminine face, deep eyes and distant eyebrows, as if there were clear waves flowing between them.
She wasn't sure why the legion outside with the Gripen banner had come to the north.
There are no strong enemies in the north, and hearing that the Kastark family has occupied Winterfell makes the new king of the north unhappy, but between the two, the strength is not at the same level at all.
There is no need for Lynn to abandon the flowery and warm White Harbor City and come to the north to enjoy the wind chill here.
In fact, Lynn's army did not make its way to the Fortress of Terror, a fortified castle with towering walls and sharp jagged battlements.
Even if you hear that it is located near a volcanic crater, it is very curious.
On the third day, the party crossed the raging Whiteblade River and entered Winterfell on the King's Route, heading to the Great Wall.
A short distance away is the junction of the northern plains and the wolf forest.
The terrain here begins to be uneven, with steep ridges and long claw-like slopes of rock and soil.
The lower part of the slope has trees, pine, hawthorn and cen trees, but the higher part is not covered with vegetation, and the top rises abruptly under a cloudy sky.
And in the sky there was a noise of crows, and when I looked up, I saw ten thousand jackdaws, carrying the sun, sweeping through the dead trees, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
On the protruding ridge, the sturdy figure of the golden pig guides the direction of the army.
The birds flew from among the branches as it passed, and the golden pig flapped its wings with its claws, as if it were catching the birds that fled into the air.
The sand and gravel flew under its talons, and the golden pig with a few goshawks in its mouth landed on the top of the ridge and stood tall at the top.
The sun hung high above the pine trees, large and bright, and the trees and hills in front of it continued to stretch into the distance until the end of sight and smell.
"That's my Gripenmon, you can revere it, but don't be delusional about being the second human to conquer it. ”
Lynn held the smoking stove and looked at the big eyes of the hound outside the carriage under a pair of thick eyebrows, staring at the golden pig that was smiling on the ridge not far away.
As the owner of the Hippriff, Lynn warned.
The latter replied sullenly, "The king cannot be conquered, but you are lucky." ”
Lynn pursed her lips and re-isolated the cold wind outside from the curtain.
On a bumpy road, it's a great place to take a break.
When you hear the breeze sighing among the leaves, you hear the squirrels chirping and whispering, and even hear the sound of pine cones tumbling to the ground.
Countless vivid scents surround him like a ballad, singing the praises of the beautiful green world.
Lynn's swaying carriage woke up from a drowsiness after noon.
Soon, in the lord's luxurious carriage, there was a small tune of humming and chirping.
"In the mountains, I only see vines entwined with trees, where in the world do I see trees entwined with vines, if the green vines do not entangle the trees, they will pass spring after spring......"
Lynn's singing style is unique and intoxicating.
The tall Duncan led the way in front of Lynn's carriage, and when he heard the sound, he flicked his whip and drove the seated horse out of the middle of the line to inspect the front.
The sound of the hoofs of the hounds as they sat down also paused, and seemed to have gone to the dwarf dogs beside the road to graze or excrete.
Han Niu Zhanger couldn't figure it out, and the thin monkey would come to his side and whispered: "My lord, this is spring, you go around where there is a woman." ”
Han Niu was frightened and shocked, the adult wants to take the lord's wife?
The thin monkey smacked his lips and said, "That's pretty much what it means?"
Han Niu looked at her husband Lu Yin sadly and said: "Can there be a woman in this dense forest? I'm afraid it's hard to find sows, it's difficult now, huh...... The tone of the adult changed. ”
"Really? I'll listen!"
The thin monkey urged him to sit down on his horse, and he rode alongside the chariot with the silk curtain.
Really.
"Who is the grievance and sorrow, the heart has no time to shake off, and only kills the legend for the world
Only Kuang Shi Jingwei has the world in mind, but the blood-stained enemy town is killed, is it against the way of heaven
Sigh and sorrow are not regretful, I am afraid that the years will pass, and I will only live with my faith and wait for future generations to comment on ......"
This time, there is no spring in the lyrics, entangled, and the singing is unusually bright in the cold forest.
Although the singing is not particularly exquisite, it is clear and firm, it is a light, like lightning breaking through the night sky, coming to you at great speed, splitting the overlapping fog of the rivers and lakes.
The thin monkey was looking down and chewing, and when he turned around, he saw a cold face in the carriage, smiling meaningfully at him.
"Uh... The adults ......," the thin monkey laughed, "what kind of tune the adults sing, the subordinates are fascinated by it." ”
Lynn was about to scold, but heard the sound of horses' hooves in front of her.
One of the sentries in charge of the front of the road rode his horse's hoof, kicked up a puff of dust, and hurried to Lynn's carriage to report: "Tell your lord, there is a cavalry squad of more than a dozen people in front of you in the dense forest, and it seems that the flag is a night watch ranger. ”
Lynn glared at the skinny monkey.
The night watchman is now facing increasing pressure from the wildlings, and he should not be in the mood to leave the desperate Great Wall and go south, so he thought for a moment and said, "Sterling, you accompany the Sentinel to the front to take a look." Let's see if these people are deserters from the Great Wall of Desperation!"
As the guardian of the North, Lynn must continue some of the policies of Winterfell before, and capture deserters who rebelled because they couldn't stand the boring and cold life of the Night's Watch legion.
Whether it's for the safety of Westeros or the North, a little thought will make it clear that this tradition must be maintained, and the Night's Watch is the first line of defense against northern wildlings and strangers, and it is also the most important barrier.
If that legion rots, there will be a great shock in the whole north.
The army stopped at the entrance of the wolf forest, Lynn took out the kettle and drank a sip of water, but he couldn't stand the earthy smell in the kettle, so he threw the kettle to Han Niu, ran to a crystal clear mountain stream not far away, raised a palm, and took a shallow sip, which was considered to moisten his throat.
After a while, the thin monkey rode back.
"It's the flag of the night watchman, but the man is not the night watchman, and he says it's from Bear Island. ”
