Chapter 0699: Robb Hezhen Arya borrowed his face

The next day, early in the morning, in the snow, a fast horse galloped into the winter town.

Outside of Winterfell, there is a village, and this village is called Wintertown.

When winter comes, the north is cold and snowy, and there are no crops in the fields, and the people of the north need to solve two problems: the first is to eat, and the second is to keep warm.

Winter towns are places where the impoverished people of the North come in and live in groups in the dead of winter.

The houses here are all made of heavy and thick granite, tall and sturdy, the rooms are full of wood, each house has a fireplace, and a basement has been dug to store grain, and there is a basement for a fire to keep warm.

In the North, the people sleep mostly in the warmer underground during the winter, with the exception of the Stark family of Winterfell, which was built on a hot spring.

Winterfell also has cellars, which are granaries to be exact, and are naturally only used to store grain, not to live and rest at night. Inside the walls of Winterfell's main fortress, there are hot springs flowing through the walls, making Winterfell a very comfortable and warm place in winter.

It is rumored that there are a large number of dragon bones buried in the ground of Winterfell, which are derived from the dragon bones killed in the battle between the Terrans and the Aliens during the Heroic Age, which is said to be the origin of the underground hot spring water. In the entire North, only Winterfell has a hot spring underneath, which is unique.

This year, winter hadn't yet arrived, but the winter towns outside Winterfell were already crowded with people from the north of the North.

The strange spirits attacked, and the entire northern part of the northern realm gathered in the winter town for refuge.

Several trenches were dug outside the winter town, filled with fire oil, and a long array of antlers was laid out, which was protected by a human wall of swords and shields in the event of an attack by strange spirits. These measures have given the people of the North the greatest sense of security. Robb Stark, King of the North, tells his people that House Stark will do everything in their power to keep them safe.

"Are there any people who can build walls?" cried a loud voice in the streets of the winter town in the early morning snow, "His Majesty has called upon the workers who have built the walls to serve hot fresh bread and carrot soup with ham every day. ”

King Robb's minister made no mention of wages.

Although the Stark family is a duke family, it is not a wealthy family compared to the dukes in the south. In these turbulent and dark times, His Majesty needs the united devotion of his people.

Doors and windows were opened, people poured out of the room, and many voices were saying - I can build walls, I can mine stones, I have strength, I can do anything......

"If you have stonemason tools, bring them and report to the south gate of Winterfell, there is a scholar at the gate who is responsible for registering the information of the personnel, and the king's affairs officer will arrange your specific work. The Wraiths are coming, and the king has decreed that the walls of Winterfell need to be heightened. The clerk who had come to recruit shouted on his horse.

In a turbulent situation, it is not easy to find a job with fresh bread and soup with meat cubes, not to mention wages.

The men scrambled towards the south gate of Winterfell.

"Sir, I'll dig for the dirt. A dirty little girl came to the officer's horse and said timidly.

This childish voice caused the old man and the woman to laugh good-naturedly.

"Little girl, what's your name?" the clerk didn't smile, his face was serious.

"My name is Wheat. ”

"Wheat, do you have any tools to dig the soil?"

"I have shovels at home. ”

"Have you ever dug a cellar?"

"Yes, sir. I dug the cellar for my parents, and I dug it fast and well. ”

"Little girl, you have been hired, go back and take your shovel and go to the north gate of Winterfell, where the clerk is recruiting workers who can dig cellars. ”

"Yes, sir. The little girl with dirt on her face was full of excitement, and her eyes were full of excitement.

"Ladies and gentlemen!" shouted the commissioner, "men and women, young and old, those who can dig cellars, those who have dug cellars, and those who do not want to be killed in the winter town when the strange spirits attack, all go to the north gate to register, and wait for the unified arrangement of the officials." His Majesty has a new order that all the people of the North are to take refuge in the Winterfell before the Stranger arrives, and the Winter Town will give up its protection. To repeat, the Winter Shelter Town will give up guarding. ”

The news spread, and there was an uproar in the winter town, and the voices of women, old people, men and children rang out everywhere.

............

The day after the mountain arrived in Winterfell, the whole of Winterfell was in full swing, and almost all the people of Winterfell were recruited as workers to build the walls and dig cellars.

Winterfell had two walls, and between them was a deep moat. Hundreds of craftsmen appeared on the two walls, and they began to build the walls, building the already high walls even higher.

Winterfell has three gates to enter and exit, one for the convenience of hunting, one for direct access to the Wolf Grove, one for the south facing King's Landing, and one for the north facing the Great Wall.

Outside these three gates, on both sides of the gates, early in the morning, craftsmen came to build the tall acropolis towers.

The wooden acropolis tower has no actual combat effect in the face of the ghosts, and it is extremely inconvenient to go up and down, once the ghosts attack closely, the soldiers on the tower can only be a dead end. The tall wooden Acropolis Towers could only be used for lookouts, but these buildings, which were useless in actual combat, were a gesture that Winterfell was determined to defend.

This is deliberately made by the Magic Mountain for the wise Stranger and the Night King!

Outside the first wall, the soldiers who dug the trench continued to dig deeper. Behind the trenches, thousands of northern soldiers were laying dense wooden stakes with spikes pointing outward, laying a large array of antlers, leaving only a narrow road in the middle to enter and exit the city gates.

Just one day after the arrival of the Magic Mountain, Winterfell underwent two drastic changes, the first was the sound of the raised walls and the construction of the Acropolis Tower, and the second was the thousands of people with tools digging deep into the cellars of the big wine bags beneath Winterfell.

In a corner of the school yard, carpenters and workers are crackling and nailing large wooden frames, which are half a person high and one meter wide. Outside of Winterfell is the Thousand Miles Wolf Forest, and the last thing that is lacking is all kinds of wood.

The soil dug out of the ground is continuously picked up to the city wall, and the nailed wooden frame is also transported to the city wall like flowing water, the wooden frame is arranged neatly according to the general soldier, and then the soil is poured into the wooden frame, tamped with a stone hammer, and constantly adds some gravel and water into it, the water penetrates into the soil in the extremely cold weather and solidifies immediately, and the artificial mud and stones that are one meter wide and half a person high are stacked up hard like steel.

In just a few days, the walls were being raised at a speed visible to the naked eye. It's a miracle that if you go to a distant quarry to mine the stone, pull it back and hang it on the city wall, it won't take months for the city wall to be raised quickly.

*

Robert Stark, King of the North, Her Majesty the Queen Mother, Caitlin Tully, Queen Roselyn Frey, Commander-in-Chief of the Coalition, Magic Mountain, Count Rickard Karstark, Count Gallbert Glover, and Countess Lysand Flint walked the walls of the newly built section of the South Gate. They walked slowly, inspecting the military defenses of the soldiers and civilians inside and outside the city.

The eyes of the nobles of the north have all changed when they look at the Magic Mountain, and the most critical and guarded Lady Catelyn Tully has also become respectful to the Magic Mountain, and her gaze at the Magic Mountain has also become cordial and polite, and she has given Her Majesty the Queen Mother a respectful smile for free.

The miracle that the city walls can be built so quickly, and the four walls are getting higher at a speed that is visible to the naked eye, all come from the method proposed by the magic mountain.

Filling the earth dug out of the ground with wooden frames, adding water and gravel to tamp it is not a method that the construction workers came up with, this is a method that the magic mountain came up with. The speed at which the walls were raised was astonishing, and it was a good solution to the problem of piling up the earth dug up by thousands of people underground, as the soldiers only had to pour the soil into a wooden frame that had been placed one by one, and the rest was handed over to the builders to tamp it down.

This is a well-established assembly line operation: the people in the ground dig the earth, the tall porters carry the soil to the city wall, the carpenters nail the wooden frames and transport them to the city wall like bricks, and the city builders only tamp the soil in the baskets...... Everything runs like a machine, in an orderly manner, and there is no clumsiness of boulders, no need for large machinery, and no need to go far to the quarry to mine boulders.

The morale of the soldiers of the northern realm has soared, everyone has witnessed the rapid rise of the city walls, and their confidence has soared like the city walls, and the magic mountain has brought his dragon, and it has also brought good methods and hope for life.

The military and civilians of the whole city are united in their hearts, and the military projects are in full swing every day. The soldiers and civilians of the North, nobles and commoners, in between their work and rest, were talking to each other about a manβ€”the Magic Mountain and his dragon in the West, and his method of building walls using dirt. The new initiative to hollow out Winterfell and hide the people of the North underground instead of Winter Town also came from the Magic Mountain's suggestion.

Strange ghosts are coming, and the winter town has no walls to block, which is very dangerous in itself. Relying on a few fire oil ditches and the sword and shield formations of the northern soldiers, it is indeed safer to hide in the underground of Winterfell. And to get all the people into Winterfell, if you don't hollow out the ground, you can't accommodate so many people. The nobles of the North have taken possession of all the houses in Winterfell.

As the four walls of the city became taller, the prestige and honor of the Magic Mountain rose like the city walls, and among the tens of thousands of soldiers in the north, there was only one person who was not happy in his heart, and he was Robb Stark, the king of the north.

Everyone was looking forward to the strong defense of the walls and the safety of the underground tunnels, but Robb knew that all of this was a deliberate illusion designed by the Demon Mountain, in order to deceive the Night King, the Demon King, so that he could drive the army of ghouls to attack Winterfell, and eventually take Winterfell completely, and then the big Mountain would burn Winterfell to the ground with a fire.

The ghoul who was burned to ashes, the Night King, can never be resurrected. The Magic Mountain first eliminated the Night King's army of ghouls, and then the Night King. Robb Stark knew very well that the plan was good, but, only, Winterfell belonged to Stark!

Robb Stark was depressed, and in his eyes, the walls were nothing more than a wreck in ruins in the splendor of wildfire and dragon fire.

Robb is still a little uneasy, the magic mountain in exchange for Winterfell in exchange for the military plan to win the Armageddon, he represents the northern forces, becomes the only co-conspirator of the magic mountain, and also has to keep it a secret for the magic mountain.

This is the first time Robb has met and dealt with the Magic Mountain in person, he has learned the taste of the Magic Mountain, watching the Magic Mountain enjoy the compliments of his northern courtiers, as well as the respect of his mother and wife for the Magic Mountain, Robb Stark looked up at the foggy sky in the north and wanted to roar fiercely...... He'sβ€”what's heβ€”β€”!

Nearly 30,000 Legions of the Valley, 15,000 Legions of the West, 5,000 Legions of the Riverlands, more than 50,000 of the three major legions, known as the 100,000 Great Army, the three armies joined forces and gathered in the territory of the Frey family in the Twin River City, and when they were about to cross the hundred miles of the neck in the north, a large merchant ship from Braavoss arrived at the port of the Blackwater River in King's Landing, and the merchant ship brought cloth, spices, nuts, silk, and flour, as well as a messenger of vengeance: Arya Stark the Faceless.

In the year 298 Ayral, Cersei ordered Marin Tran, the Kingsguard, to lead the golden-robed soldiers, kill the entire team of the prime minister who wanted to let her go with mercy at that time, and threw Eddard Stark into an underground black cell, and put Sansa Stark under house arrest to order the north. The guards and servants, as well as the cattle and sheep in the stalls, were all killed, and not a single one was left alive.

Arya Stark, who witnessed the bloodshed, escaped through the underground tunnels of the Red Keep, and now she has returned. Standing on the bow of the ship looking up at the tall red rock walls of the Red Keep in King's Landing, Arya Stark's face was as calm as water.

Death to all mortals! She is single-handed, fearless!

A few days later. Late at night. Meggor House.

Oswell Kate Black, the queen director, returned to the house, walked into his bedroom with a candle, and saw a girl with a sharp temperament sitting on the soft collapse of the bedroom.

"Who are you? I have never seen you in the palace. Oswell Kate Black asked kindly. In his heart, he was very vigilant.

The girl is young and thin, and although she has a sword at her waist, it is a child's toy sword. This made Oswell not panic.

"I'm Arya Stark, a wolf from the North. Arya stood up and said calmly. She is as calm as water.

"Arya Stark, how did you get in?"

"How I escaped, how I got in now. β€œ

"What do you want to do?"

"I want to ask you to borrow something. ”

"What's that?"

"Your face, I'm going to borrow your face. ”

As she spoke, Arya Stark pulled out the sewing needle from her waist.
