Chapter 0351: The Most Powerful Expeditionary Force for Thousands of Years
Littlefinger Petyr Berish, now Little Green, who is in charge of trade and town building, has been refaced, making money!
Coben, who lost his tongue, is in charge of medicine and life research - saving lives and helping the wounded, and will build the first hospital on the Great Wall!
Blacksmith Donna Noi is tasked with assembling a team of blacksmiths to craft weapons – Valyrian steel swords and future dragon crystal daggers and arrows!
Samwell is in charge of the Cellar Library, which is the future of the University, and it doesn't matter if there is a chain of bachelors from the School City Templar to prove it.
Will Cao has initially built a talent pool in his kingdom.
In order to build a strong army, it is not only to focus on building an army, but also to build a strong army with food, money, weapons, a population base, bachelor's degree, medical care, and so on.

The sound of the iron chains stirring the heavy iron gate echoed in the tunnel, and the darkness in front of him began to reveal a glimmer of light from the ground, and the bitter cold wind swept in from the bottom of the big iron gate that had just risen a little.
Will rode a horse and carried a torch, flanked by Blake's squire.
Blake had a pack horse in his hand and two cages of ravens. Blake was flanked by alchemists Adonis and Jarvis, both of whom were prominent figures in the King's Landing Alchemists' Guild, who had been brought to the Great Wall by Will in wooden crates along with their disciples, including the wildfire-making materials the guild had stored.
The alchemists in the Alchemists' Guild were all 'invited' to the Great Wall by Will, and they lived in Icemark City, which was three castles away from Castle Black. To the east of Icemark is the Long Night Keep, which will be used for the blacksmith's shop.
The kidnapped alchemists were placed in Icemark City for fear that they would explode while refining the wildfire. Wildfires are extremely unstable materials, and when large merchant ships brought wildfire raw materials to the Great Wall, those wildfire materials were submerged in the thick river sand.
Behind Will, Blake, the alchemist Adonis, and Jarvis are the Roaring Eight guards.
Then there's Big Gilly, Angai, Hound Dog, Chief Ranger Commander Tough Guy Sauron, and two of Bachelor Coben's assistants, whose medical skills require actual training.
Bachelor Coben was a doctor for the expeditionary force.
Behind this group were three hundred rangers!
Will and the others took the three hundred rangers out of the Great Wall tunnel and slowly lined up in the snow.
With the sound of horses' hooves, another black-clad team of three hundred people appeared, led by the leader of the recruit sect, Jon Snow, also three hundred cavalry, but all of them were recruits from the Seven Kingdoms and the Wolf Forest tribe.
Jon Snow walked out of the Great Wall Tunnel with all his recruits and lined up on the left flank of the Will Legion.
Then another army came out of the tunnel, and the officers were mainly Tyron Ash, and all the warriors of the Roaring Stonefolk were still three hundred cavalry. They lined up on the right flank of the Weill Corps.
Three legions of three hundred men on the left, center, and right, with Will in the center.
Will blew the iron whistle, which was the order signal he had agreed upon after a brief exchange with officers at all levels yesterday.
From then on, the orders of the Great Wall Corps will be called the Iron Sentry. Will was the first to spearhead the practice.
The expedition was also a training exercise for the training officers.
It is better to give orders with a whistle than to shout at a loud voice.
As long as the army has passed 1,000 people, the army will probably not be able to hear the order issued by the loud voice, and a special messenger will be needed to deliver the order. The sound of the iron whistle is high-pitched and high-pitched, and it stays in the air for a long time, making it easier for soldiers to hear.
This is also the first time that the sound of the iron whistle has been used in military operations in this fantasy world.
Before this, the army had to rely on the loud voice of the leader to fight!
Will gave an order, and the three groups of people slowly walked into the Ghost Shadow Forest.
However, the tunnel gate of the Great Wall was not closed, and slowly, a fourth team of 300 people came out of the tunnel of the Great Wall, they were a team of 300 cavalry made up by the advance army of the four countries, and this team was arranged by Lord Will as a logistics team. Each soldier had at least two horsemen, one of whom was a pack horse, carrying the rations of the army, bundles of arrows, bows and arrows, knives and guns, leather and robes, tents for supplies. In addition to pack horses, the 300 advance troops also drove dozens of wagons, all of which were logistical necessities, including pots and pans for the troops.
The advance force of the four countries was used by Will for the rear supply team, which actually made the deputy commander of the advance army, Robert Royce, very unhappy.
The commander-in-chief of the Advance Force of the Four Kingdoms was Robb Stark, who pursued the two Kingsguard in the Riverlands and had not yet reached the Wall. Robb Stark was away, and the top commander of the Advance Force was Robert Royce of the Eastern Valley.
Robert Royce, like his father, Jon, the Bronze, wore bronze plate armor with spells said to have been drawn.
The runes on the bronze armor of the House of Royce ward off attacks and reduce damage - but sadly, the people of House Royce were killed and injured in battle. Weima Royce, who patrols the Phantom Forest with Will, is Robert Royce's younger brother. Weimar Royce was the first Ranger to be killed by a Wraith in 8,000 years. The runic bronze armor that Weimar Royce wore under the black cloak did not protect him from harm.
Jon and Daisy Mormont are Robert Royce's lieutenants.
In addition to Robert Royce's dissatisfaction, it was the commander-in-chief Jao Mormont who was even more dissatisfied with Will this time.
Jeo Mormont is going to be the commander-in-chief of this expeditionary force, and it should be Will who should stay on the Great Wall of Desperation to rest, he is tired enough, and he has won too much honor and wealth for everyone, he has just returned to Castle Black for only one day, and the next day he immediately led an expedition, which is unacceptable to Jeo Mormont, who has been on the Great Wall.
However, Jeo Mormont's proposal to lead the expedition was met with strong opposition from Will.
The reason Will opposes Jeo Mormont is prophecy.
The prophecy this time is not from Will, but from the noble heart of Lady Leaves.
When Will and Tyrion go to the noble heart to find Lady Leaf, the first time Lady Leaf touches Will's hand she sees the blood of the Great Wall and a talking raven in the Ghost Forest pecking at an old man's face.
Will thought about it, and he thought that the old man in the prophecy was probably Mormont.
On the Great Wall, the only talking raven is Commander Mormont's raven, a raven that scolds and makes demands, but as long as Mormont dies, it will still eat the flesh of Mormont's eyes and face - the raven eats corpses, and the corpses are their own masters.
In the end, in the hall vote, Jao Mormont's vote was far lower than Will's, and Jao Mormont had to stay behind on the Wall.
But Will took his long claws with him.
Now the long claws hung from Tyron Ash's waist.
Taryn Ash took his own cavalry with him, but he himself did not ride a horse, and his weight, the horse could not bear. Even when he was on a horse, his legs were stumbling and dragging on the ground.
Will is on this expedition to capture a mammoth for Taryn Ash.
The mounts of the giants are mammoths.
