Chapter XXIX: Judgment and Recruitment

Physical punishment was not enough to justify the guilt of the savages who participated in the rebellion.

William took prisoners of the savages who attacked Donghaiwang, flogged them and handed them over to the Night's Watch Legion, and the others directly skipped the trial, and the Gripen Legion never had these cumbersome rules for treating the enemy, so they rushed together to shoot them and then buried them in the snow.

In contrast, the commander of the Night's Watch, Jon Snow, was much more particular about the prisoners of war, and he had the Night's Watch officer brought from Castle Black read out a long line of testimony and verdict in front of thousands of wildling onlookers.

Although there are many crimes, the core content is also very simple.

As long as they are involved in rebellion, regardless of the severity of the crime, whether they are murderous or whether they are armed or not, they will be executed in one case.

After a round of screening, the hundreds of captives who survived were not able to rejoice in their escape from hell, and were savagely dragged to a remote drying ground in the savage camp by hundreds of black-clothed soldiers.

These sinners have moved from one hell to another.

Each of them had a bloody whip on their bodies.

The tattered clothes were scraped in the snow like fallen leaves.

Although the Night's Watch is more elaborate than the Gripen Legion, the punishment is more bloody according to the law.

It took dozens of thugs to chop off for nearly an hour before removing all the rebels' heads from their heads.

The bright white snow drying ground quickly became a hell on earth.

Surprisingly, not many people watched such a bloody execution ground, not that the savages were accustomed to seeing life and death outside the fortress, and they were not curious about the cold execution ground at all.

Just because at the same time, the recruitment meeting of the Xinmin Legion that was being held in the central valley of the savage camp was more popular with the Xinmin than the betrayal spirits who died and could not be favored by the old gods.

William looked around on a makeshift wooden platform with his sword in hand, and made his final remarks before recruiting new recruits.

"My lord, Lord Lynn de Rothschild, the king of the north in your mouth, once said that the betrayer of the new people has tarnished the glory of all the warriors of the new lands and severely damaged Lord Lynn's trust in you. ”

To put it mildly, even the wolf cubs in the wolf forest know that they know that they are not even as good as animals. However, Lord Guardian has never liked to kill everyone with a stick, and you still have one last chance to join the New People's Army for the sake of your family, your tribe, and your relatives!

I swear that I will bring you back to glory and trust. ”

As soon as William's words fell, the sound of beating his chest resounded in the square, and the savages were stimulated by the words of the most instinctive wildness in their hearts.

The hustle and bustle was overwhelming, and the crowded areas of the various tribes rioted almost at the same time.

Many savages stared at William on the high platform with burning eyes, and William, who looked mighty with his hair tied and wearing bright armor, everyone's face was full of eagerness.

Seeing that the enthusiasm of the savages to join the Xinmin Legion was so high, William nodded secretly, and looked down at the scribes who had been waiting from the last Fireplace City, who had already taken their seats behind the simple wooden tables side by side, and shouted to the audience with a wave of his hand: "This time the recruits are recruiting 6,000 people, 5,000 from each of the twenty tribes in each new land, and those who sign up are lined up, so that the legion affairs officer can register in front of them." ”

The fifty warriors of the Giant Tribe pushed through the dense crowd, led by the patriarch of the Giant Tribe Wangwang, walked at the front of the queue, they wore very little, except for simply covering the vital points, the rest of the place was bare thick hair, despite this, they did not feel the cold at all, even in the bitter cold outside the plug, they often slept in the snow.

With the establishment of a new legion, as a legion commander, you need to establish your own absolute authority, and it is the first time that William has cooperated with a non-Gripen Legion's system soldiers, so Lynn has given him even more special rights!

The accustomed savages lined up honestly because of William's previous torture of the rebels, killing the monkeys to show these monkeys.

The recruitment meeting is going on enthusiastically.

William beckoned to Tomund to come over, and as the head of the Castle Black's recruits, William met him several times during his daily interactions with the Night's Watch Legion.

Tormund trotted in front of William, saluted with the etiquette of facing the Lords within the Legion, and waited for the Lord's lecture, no worse than those who had been in the ranks of the Continental Army in Westeros all year round.

William narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "I heard that you have a lot of experience in training Xinmin?"

"Don't dare, the Gripen Legion is brave and good at fighting, it can be called the invincible army of Westeros, and my subordinates have already heard of it!" Tormund had mixed up with the old night watch in Castle Black, and he answered very properly when he spoke, and he lost the reckless temperament of the wild man outside the Seychelles, and his body was a little more rounded.

"Hahaha, you know probably the rumors of several main forces of the Gripen Legion in the Southern Expedition, right? Although I have been ordered to guard the last Hearthh City, I also yearn to kill the enemy on the front line like other Gripen Legion soldiers, the Xinmin Legion is an opportunity, for me it is a moment to show loyalty to Lord Lynn, and for you savages Xinmin, it is a great opportunity, for the Cypriot Foreigners fiefdom, this is an unprecedented event, you are not tempted?" William asked playfully.

How could Tormund not be tempted, although the position of the night watchman was much better than being a new citizen hunting in the savage camp, it was still a step worse than actually going to the south to fight, fight for glory, and receive a reward.

When Jon Snow led the team out of Castle Black, he had already informed him about the formation of the New Folk Legion, and also said that Lynn personally named the Legion after the New People at the White Harbor Conference in order to take care of the wild people of the new tribe, and although Tormund had the position of Night Watchman, he was grateful to Lynn for the respect of his fellow Mariners.

The Wall of Desperation has separated the Free Folk from Westeros for thousands of years, and for generations they have chosen and followed a leader according to their own preferences, living a life of exile and a long period of fratricidal warfare.

Although Lynn let them enter the south of the Great Wall to avoid the pursuit of the strangers, and gave them the status of new people, these wild free people have been extremely worried for this period of time, because from the beginning to the end, their acquisition range is also tightly limited to new lands, and they have never really integrated into the life of the people of Westeros, and even the crows who guard the desperate Great Wall must have a lower status.

From the primitive society to the relatively modern north with community organizations, the class gap always stirred up their sensitive nerves.

It wasn't until the moment when Lynn announced the establishment of the New Militia that Tormund and all the savages were completely down-to-earth.

They don't care who kills the enemy for Lynn, as long as they have the opportunity to work hard, they have a channel for promotion, and their family can have the opportunity to completely transform from a new citizen to a normal Westeros resident who can receive education.

Life outside the Cypriot taught these savages that human life is worthless in the face of poverty, hunger, and danger.

Of course, Tormund could hear the voice of the mighty Gripen Legion, and without the slightest hesitation, he knelt down on one knee and said loudly to William: "As long as you are willing to drive, Tormund is willing to serve your lordship with all your heart, and I will personally resign from Commander Jon Snow as the head of the Night's Watch." ”

"It's not to serve me, but Lord Lynn, whether it's the Night's Watch Legion, or the New Folk Legion, we are all fighting for the North, fighting for Lord Lynn, since you are willing to come, you don't have to worry about the transfer, now that the Gentiles on the east coast of the North are raging, the establishment of the New Folk Legion is one of the top priorities in the North, I will personally submit a letter of secondment to Castle Black, and Commander Jon agrees!"

Tormund looked at him, his head lowered again, and his chest clapped the chain mail with a pop, "Yes, my lord!"
