Five days later. The Great Wall, the Black Castle.

Outside the castle gate, there are brothers from Tokai Wang and the Shadow Tower.

Seventy elite rangers, two hundred and ten infantry and officers.

The cavalry was in front, the infantry was behind, everyone was unsheathed with their swords, and the archers' bows and arrows were on the strings.

Inside the gate, a team with better armor and weapons blocked the gate, but the line was lined up with infantry in front, all pikemen, densely packed with spears like hedgehogs.

The infantry was followed by cavalry, equally well-armored, with swords and swords. On the sturdy guard tower, hundreds of arrows were aimed at the team outside the gate, condescending, occupying the geographical advantage.

In this kind of formation, the black-clothed brothers of Donghai Wang and the Shadow Tower were obviously at a disadvantage of being slaughtered.

If the black-clad brothers were to charge, the cavalry would suffer heavy losses first, and it would be very difficult for the cavalry to break through the spurs of several layers of pikemen.

However, even if the brothers in black change their tactics, the situation will not be much better.

The wolf forest archers on the guard tower took advantage of the location.

There was a rain of arrows, hundreds of arrows were spilled, and more than a dozen brothers fell to the ground.

Despite this disadvantage, the brothers in black are still imposing.

The barbarians of the wolf forest made them feel the same hatred and blood boiled.

Inside Castle Black, in the council hall, the atmosphere was also tense.

Commander-in-Chief Mormont sat at the long black table, looking condescendingly at his subordinates.

The Commander-in-Chief and the Legion Commanders sat on a three-foot elevated platform.

To Mormont's left sat Will, who had a faintly different look and temperament, and to his right was Maester Aemon Targaryen, his blind eyes staring into the void. Behind them were the twelve warriors of the Wolf Forest barbarians that the commanders of the black-clothed army had never seen, and it had to be said that the good armor that these barbarians didn't know where to get it exceeded the black-clothed leather and chain mail of the commanders in the hall.

Under the long table, to the left of the table, stood a giant man who was almost twice as tall as everyone else. The giant man's chest and arms have armor on them, which doesn't seem to fit, as if they were improvised patchwork, but they protect the vital points of the giant man's body.

The giant man's weapon was a pair of huge bronze hammers, and in the center of the bronze hammer there was a spike about a foot long, shining with a cold light.

The huge body of this giant man and the huge bronze hammer gave people the domineering aura of a wild beast, and his eyes were like the eyes of a shadow lynx, dark and bloodthirsty and cruel. As long as he grins, he will show his curved fangs comparable to that of a hungry wolf, which is timid.

The castle's hall is very tall, and the ceiling is home to ravens. Only now, there is not a single raven, they are all locked in a cage and controlled, just like the three commanders of Castle Black: the chief of general affairs, Bowen Marcy, the acting chief ranger Sir Jeremy Lake, and the head of the recruit Sir Alyssa Thorne.

Beneath the three-foot-high council floor was the Great Hall, and there were a number of people standing now, all of them the leaders and chief technographers of the Night's Watch.

First up was Carter Pike, the commander of the East Sea Lookout, and he was accompanied by three of the most powerful Ranger brothers: Deputy Commander Watt, who was a master of swordsmanship and military advisory, Jimmy the Rock Sheep, who was good at tracking and climbing, and Arnold, a lone wolf, who was able to run for long hours in the snow without tirelessness.

Next to the gang is Dennis Mellister, the old commander of the Shadow Tower, and beside him is the newly released deputy commander Severed Palm, Colin's bravest lieutenant, Bane, and the most skilled climber and archery Stonesnake brothers.

Behind these men were the veteran and skilled blacksmith Donna Noy, the chief craftsman of the Legion, Osel Yawick, the chief craftsman of the Legion, and the Hound Training Chief, Adonis, among others.

Carter Pike was the first to speak: "Commander, Will, what the hell is going on with you? Why did the Wolf Foresters come in and take control of Castle Black? If it weren't for your letter, I would have attacked the Black Castle and killed all the barbarians of the Wolf Forest. Will, I've heard a lot of rumors about you, so tell me what is going on yourself. ”

Will was silent, expressionless.

Mormont coughed, and the crow on his shoulder suddenly interjected: "Corn, corn." Good girl, good girl. The clever crow remembered the good girl who gave it corn, Big Gilly.

Big Gilly and his group of twelve women were temporarily settled by Will in the room below the Command Tower. Their arrival made all the brothers' eyes glow green, whether it was the brothers in black or the wolf forest brothers, their psychological activities were very consistent when facing the living women.

Mormont drove away the noisy crows and said in a deep voice, "I went to Custer's fortress with Lord Will and the Burning Thirteen, and we killed Custer, burned his fortress, and brought back his twelve wives. ”

Wow!

The brothers in black were in an uproar.

The news was shocking.

Custer was a half-friend of Commander-in-Chief Mormont, and the commander was so commanded that no brother was allowed to be disrespectful to Custer, because the Ranger brothers needed to rest and resupply Custer's fort when they were patrolling north.

Now, the Commander and Will rushed over to kill Custer.

This is something beyond the imagination of all the brothers.

Everyone was amazed.

"Custer has nineteen wives, and he's lived there for decades, brothers, why do Custer's nineteen wives have only daughters and no sons?" said Mormont, crushing all the noise in the hall.

The reason for this is unknown and well known, because Mormont also issued a military order not to take care of any of Custer's affairs, including why he only had daughters and no sons. The world of savages is mysterious and difficult to understand, and after a long time, everyone gets used to it.

Mormont's two non-startling words made everyone clearly aware of the great changes that had taken place here, as if Will had suddenly transformed and brought back hundreds of heavily armed wolf warriors, and among these warriors were some women, some women with wolf-like eyes.

Commander Mormont sighed, "Actually, both I and Maester Emon, Chief Bowen, and Chief Ranger Bunyan Stark know that Custer sacrificed his son to his god. It's just that we don't know what the god of Custer is. Until Will told me that the god of Custer was actually a stranger, a god of cold, and his sons were all transformed into strangers. ”

The hall roared!

The commanders of the more than twenty black-clothed legions were talking, talking loudly and emotionally, and none of them could hear what the other was saying.

Mormont exclaimed, "I was like everyone else at first, and when Lord Will told me the truth, I refused to believe it. So, Lord Will took me to the fortress of Custer and saw that it was believing. When we reached the White Tree Village, we were ambushed by strange spirits. In all the villages near Baishu Village, all the livestock disappeared, all the people were killed by the strange spirits, men, women and children, the corpses were mutilated, and the stumps were arranged in a huge spiral pattern on the snow. They were sacrificing with the lives and blood of the villagers. On the snow, blood was everywhere. ”

Rumble!

The hall was even more enthusiastic.

The hall was small in number, but it was as noisy as if it was crowded with hundreds of people.

Mormont saw that the heat was almost over, stood up suddenly, and said in a deep voice: " Brothers, if it weren't for Lord Will, we wouldn't even know that the strangers came to the Great Wall, and we wouldn't know that Custer gave birth to an army of strangers under our noses, Will has received an oracle revelation, he is the son of the god of time and space, he is the chosen one, the future prophet, winter is coming, the long night is coming, in the snowflakes in the sky, the strangers will drive thousands of ghoul legions to attack, I respect Lord Will as the leader of the army against the strangers, and promise to follow him, although he dies, he will not rebel, now, what do you say?"
