Chapter 100: The Great Wall of Desperation Attacks by Strange Ghosts

On King's Road, Chen Zhong led his army to pursue Celine north against the wind and snow. The 50,000 elites of Baratheon broke through.

After a month of siege of Storm's End, the city's food reserves had been eaten up by a large number of troops, and Celine could only levy food from the common people and minor nobles to maintain daily consumption, and when the cavalry began to stealthily kill horses and eat meat, she knew that her situation was over.

Celine gave the order, and more than 100,000 troops forcibly attacked the lineup of Chen Chong's army at any cost, and finally opened a passage to the north, with more than 50,000 elite cavalry, more than 100,000 war horses and the remaining food, and galloped all the way north.

Chen Chong's army was suddenly attacked, although there was some surprise, but the traps that had been prepared in the woods played a huge role, and it took only two days to achieve victory, leaving a part of the warriors to watch over the captives and chase the rout, Chen Chong began to pursue Celine north with most of his army.

The army went north along the King's Road, but after crossing the Neck, they ran into trouble and it began to snow in the north.

Whether it is the Dothraki, the Unsullied, or the Dorn, they live in an arid and hot climate, and suddenly come to the icy north, many of the warriors are sick, and the soldiers' clothes are too thin, Chen Zhong can only order to temporarily camp in Grey Water, waiting for Tyrion's logistics to send warm clothes and related supplies.

It took five days for the baggage team to arrive, and the redressed army continued to move north, arriving in Winterfell, the home of the Stark family, which was now unoccupied.

Celine's strategy of going all the way north made Chen Zhong a little uneasy, could it be that Celine planned to flee all the way to the land of eternal winter outside the Saiwai? Isn't she afraid of the strange spirits there?

After passing through Winterfell, they encountered several messengers of the Night's Watch with Jon Murphy, the Commander-in-Chief of the Night's Watch. Snow's handwritten letter for help, three days ago, Celine led more than 50,000 people to defeat the team of night watchmen and free men guarding the desperate Great Wall, opened the gates of the Great Wall, and she led the army into the Ghost Forest outside the Great Wall.

Chen Chong's worst fear appeared, and Celine ran to the outside of the place. When the season of winter has arrived, the strangers and ghouls will become the masters there, and all the humans they encounter will be transformed into ghouls who obey orders, and they have no confidence that they can defeat these evil races, so do they have to compete with Celine in endurance? See who dies first in this world?

After Celine opened the gates of the Great Wall and entered the fortress, the defeated Jon gathered the ragged Night's Watch and Freedmen in Mole Village, returned to Castle Black and closed the gates again, still keeping his Night's Watch oath and sticking to Castle Black.

After the arrival of Chen's army, Arya, Sansa, and Jon told them about their separation, and after learning what Chen Chong had done, Jon expressed his willingness to surrender to the Ryoma Empire on behalf of the Night's Watch Legion.

Daenerys heard about Jon. Snow has long wanted to meet him after the incident of not dying in the fire, contacting Jon's age and his brother Prince Rhaegar and Lyanna. Stark's matter, Jon's life story is about to come out, he has the true dragon blood of the Targaryen family flowing in his body, he is his brother's son, his own nephew.

Looking at the young and handsome Jon, who seemed to be able to see Prince Rhaegar from his body, Daenerys said emotionally: "Jon, follow me back to Pantos, you are a member of the Targaryen family, you should get married and have children to pass on the bloodline of the family." ”

Jon finally learned of his origins, but with a strong personality, he said to the crowd the vows he had made: "The night is coming, and I will keep watch until I die." I will not take a wife, nor a fief, nor have children. I will not wear a crown, and I will not compete for honor. I will do my duty and die in my life. I am the sword in the darkness, the guard of the Great Wall, the flame against the cold, the light at dawn, the trumpet that awakens the sleeper, the shield that guards the kingdom. I give my life and glory to the night watch, tonight, night and night. ”

The soldiers of the Night's Watch followed Commander Jon as they took the vow, and Daenerys hugged him and wept when she saw Jon's heart.

Chen Zhong said to Arya, "You will be the Lord of Winterfell in the future, and I will give you the reward of the North, so that you and your sister Sansa can take care of Jon who is stationed in Castle Black." ”

Instead of being overjoyed about regaining her father's lost Winterfell and the North, Arya became worried, was Mengo driving her away?

With Chen's support, Jon sent several teams of scouting warriors to the Fist of the Ancestors, the Ghost Forest, the Castle of Custer, the White Tree Village, and the Tough Castle outside the fortress.

A few days later, only eight of the five teams, each of twenty scouts, had returned, and under the cover of their companions' deaths, they had brought back important information that countless strangers and ghouls were heading south and were about to come to the Wall.

According to survivors who have had close encounters with the Wraiths, the largest number of ghouls are more afraid of fire, while the smaller number of Wraughs have little weakness, and legend has it that they are afraid of dragon fire and obsidian.

Chen Zhong ordered Braavos and Pantos to ship large quantities of fire oil and send men to reach obsidian from the Far East.

The members of the Cult of Light who are good at fire magic were also recruited to the Great Wall, but after hearing that they were going to fight against the ghosts, the Green Saintess and the others became excited, it turned out that in the records of the Cult of Light, the enemy of the god of light Rahlo was a strange ghost who was good at ice and snow, and it was an honor for them to be able to help the god they believed in destroy the enemy.

On a morning when there was no snow, the night watchman on the Great Wall of Desperation sounded the alarm, and everyone in the Black Castle climbed the Great Wall more than 200 meters high, standing on it and looking, all the sight was full of ghouls like skeleton soldiers, these ghouls were converted by aliens into ordinary humans, and the ghouls who may have been converted over the years have come here.

Chen Zhong looked at the countless ghouls and asked Jon, "How many enemies do we have?" ”

"According to what can be seen now, there are more than 100,000, and this is not counting what you can't see in the ghost forest."

"It looks like there's going to be a big war." Ghouls and strange ghosts Chen Chong is not worried, with this treacherous Great Wall of Desperation, he still has more than 100,000 troops to assist in the defense, there should be no problem, what worries Chen Chong is where Celine ran away with her people? Does she have any other plots?

The ghouls began to attack the city, but the ice-covered walls of more than 200 meters high were not easy to climb, and the night watchman and the soldiers brought by Chen Zhong continued to shoot arrows, stones, and oil, but the arrows were useless even if they hit the ghouls, and these things converted from dead humans were not important, and only died when the stones smashed him or were ignited by fire.

There weren't too many stones and oil stored on the Great Wall, after all, it hadn't been invaded by strangers for many years, and as the density of attacks decreased, some ghouls had climbed to a height of a hundred meters with their sharp claws, and Jon shouted to the night watchman who controlled the mechanism, "Release!" ”

The giant sickle with a diameter of more than ten meters hanging on the head of the city is constantly shaking from side to side against the city wall, and there are dozens of such sickles on the city wall.
