Chapter 45: The Camp
Lynn was a little confused, paused, and asked Erya in a low voice in the night, "Do you know me?"
"Yes, at the Harvest Feast in Winterfell three years ago. My father has praised you himself......" Arya said in surprise at first, but her eyes darkened again when she talked about her father, Ned.
Three years ago it was supposed to be the year 295AL in the Aegon calendar.
Harvest festivals are generally held in autumn, was it autumn three years ago?
Lynn couldn't remember, if not, it should have been a meeting between the Lord of Winterfell and his vassals.
At the time, she was 12 years old and Arya was 7 years old.
At that time, he seemed to have just come to this world, it was in that winter that he inexplicably arrived at the fishing village port, his father the fishing village port Viscount failed to survive the winter of that year, and Lynn inherited the title of Viscount Rothschild, as well as the fishing village port territory.
Arya was a little depressed, and Lynn diverted the topic and comforted: "Duke Ned is someone I admire, and the people of the North, including me, will avenge him, Arya, please believe me, didn't Duke Ned also praise me at the banquet three years ago?"
Erya blinked and said, "My father said that you are a miracle, and it is a miracle that you can survive to Winterfell like that, and then your father took you to the Divine Wood Forest and prayed to the old gods to dispel the disease on you, don't you remember?"
Lynn was a little embarrassed when she heard this.
When he came up, he was swept away by the little girl, and he sighed helplessly.
However, the previous self was actually a terminally ill strong Xiaoqiang, which was a bit unexpected by himself.
It is estimated that Erya's first impression of herself was not good.
Looking at Lynn's angry expression.
Arya chuckled.
Through the moonlight, Lynn looked at Erya's appearance.
Arya's body is thin and flexible. Her appearance has the standard Stark family traits: a long face, gray eyes, and tan hair.
A schoolgirl-style short hair draped over her shoulders, the whole person looks like an energetic savage girl, of course, this is when Lynn knew in advance that she was a girl.
The needle was held in her left hand, now hanging loosely.
She is indeed left-handed.
Arya lowered her head slightly, she still knew how to be shy, especially when she remembered what she had just done, I don't know if she was seen by Lynn, even though it was dark and the visibility was less than one meter, she still felt a little ashamed and nervous.
Erya blinked her eyes and asked Lynn, "By the way, how did you find here?"
Lynn thought for a moment and said, "My merchant ship was passing through the Trident River and was going to Greystone City to buy some things, and on the way I met a golden-robed guard returning to King's Landing, and from there I found out the traces of the Night's Watch conscription. ”
Arya's eyes turned into a crescent moon and she exclaimed heartily, "Lynn, you are very smart now. ”
Was I stupid before?
Lynn just wanted to be humble when footsteps came from behind him.
Hood, the leader of the guards, stepped forward and whispered to Lynn, "My lord, something seems to have happened to the Night's Watch camp?"
Lynn looked up in surprise and peered into the camp through the dark bushes.
You don't have to look very closely, because outside the ruins of the camp, bonfires are lit everywhere.
Around the bonfires, large and small, figures flickered, and from time to time there were a few exclamations and wails of people.
Erya also turned around in surprise, and she said in horror: "Is it a water? I have to go back to put out the fire." ”
"Wait......" Lynn grabbed her arm, stared at the camp in the distance, and asked thoughtfully, "Arya, is this near the Lake of the Eyes?"
"Yes, the Eye Lake is not far ahead, what's wrong?" said Erya, puzzled,
His eyes were fixed on the camp, and his face was anxious.
Lynn grabbed Erya's arm and didn't let her leave.
He knew that the Night's Watch camp was most likely attacked by Lannister's army instead of taking water.
Erya suddenly said angrily, "Lynn let go of me, I want to go back to put out the fire, the camp will burn down, and many people will die." ”
Lynn sighed and said in a resolute tone: "There is an enemy attack, it will be dangerous in the past, and my mission is to protect you back to the north." ”
"Enemy attack...?"
Soon, the grinding of weapons and the sound of people wailing and screaming in the camp confirmed what Lynn said.
Arya paused and struggled, "Let's go and save him, Uncle Yoren is a good man, we must save him, and the big bulls." ”
Lynn hesitated, this was the Riverlands. The Lannisters have quite a few troops.
The second girl was agile, and took advantage of Lynn's stunned kung fu to break down her sleeves and run towards the camp quickly.
Damn it!
Lynn scolded secretly, and could only beckon the attendants to hurry up,
He shouted as he walked,
"It's the regular Lannisters, be alert after you pass, Hood, you arrange for a few archers to take cover in the woods, and the others will follow me to break into the camp at the right time, and our mission is to protect Miss Arya Stark from entering. ”
When Lynn first learned that this was the shore of the Lake of Eyes, he was not good.
He remembered that the Lannisters' mission to collect food and sweep in the Riverlands was to attack the Night's Watch recruited by Yoren near the Lake of the Eyes.
They killed Captain Yoren and the others, and captured all of the Night's Watch recruits that Yuren had worked so hard to recruit into Harrenhal.
The Riverlands were the site of the Great War between Robb and the Lannisters, and the armies stationed around it were strong.
However, no matter how bad the situation is now, you have to pinch your nose, if something happens to Erya, you will not only blame yourself in the bottom of your heart.
The main quest will also be completely disconnected.
Lynn led the men to the entrance of the camp, and several corpses of the Night's Watch were scattered on the ground.
One of them, dressed in black leather armor and with a black beard like a bush, leaned against the back of the corpse against the wheel of the carriage, and the long sword in his hand hung limply to the ground.
Lynn sighed secretly, this person should be the night watchman "Raven" Yulun.
He died in the hands of a broadsword, his neck grunting with thick crimson blood, his eyes wide open, obviously a little caught off guard by his death.
The Lannister army that attacked the camp had advanced to the interior of the camp at this time, and there were shouts of killing from the tent.
Lynn looked around the camp, which was full of campfires and torches, but there was no shadow of Erya.
I guess he rushed into the camp.
In a corner not far away, a two-wheeled carriage loaded with prisoners was parked, attracting Lynn's attention.
In the light of the fire, I could vaguely see the three figures standing in the prisoner car.
Lynn waved his hand and pointed at the attendant behind him,
He shouted, "Go there, let's go there." ”
The camp was too chaotic, and it was unwise to rush directly into the center of the camp where the Lannisters were encircling and suppressing it.
He knew that Arya would choose to rescue Jia Kun who was locked in the prison car, and now he could only take people over first, near the prison car, and wait for Arya to escape from the camp smartly.
Leading the attack on the Night's Watch recruits was a knight named Amori Lodge.
He is a prolific knight of the Lodge family who plays for the Lannisters. His family crest is a black sphinx manticore on a red background.
When Lynn arrived at the prisoner's cart, he was searching around on horseback with a few crossbowmen.
Sitting on his horse, he was short and fat in a black-gray armor, and under his helmet was a pale pig's face with small pig-like eyes.
Although the eyes are small, they are very easy to use.
His vigilant attention slipped to Lynn and Duncan and Shifu near the prisoner car.
A cruel smile tugged at the corners of his mouth under the Amorites' helmet, and he shouted at the crossbowmen behind him.
"Look, there are still fish that have slipped through the net, kill them!"
