Game of Thrones: I loaded the Witcher system - Chapter 350
c343 Confrontation in Changhu, testing on the frontier
After the army was organized and Jon Umber did what he had to do.
Without further delay, Clay led the troops himself along the King’s Road.
He plunged into the vast wolf forest.
Theoretically, he could lead the army to regain the Last Hearth City first.
One of Lord Amber’s favorite proposals.
However, Brynden Rivers told him that Castle Black was now in a very dangerous state.
Alliser Thorne, after returning to Castle Black with the remaining soldiers.
The Wild Hunt army, which had also suffered heavy losses, was silent for the time being.
Because when they conquered other worlds, even if they encountered worlds with a similar level of force as this world, their losses were not so great.
The unique magic shielding ability of this world eliminated the possibility of them using cold magic as they wished.
This results in the Wild Hunt army, without unplugging the node.
Falling into a frontal battle without generational differences.
Although their full-body armor is more sophisticated than that of the Night Watchmen, this kind of life-and-death fight ultimately loses momentum.
After all, they cherished their lives so much that they almost all chose to dodge when faced with the killing moves of the night watchmen in exchange for their lives.
And in this kind of head-on attack, if you choose to dodge, the opponent will take advantage of the situation and attack without mercy.
Then, you may fall into a passive situation of being embarrassed and frightened.
Although the full body armor can prevent the hacking of ordinary weapons.
However, facing the full thrust of the stainless steel sword, there was still no way to resist it.
As a result, the blood of the Wild Hunt army continued to flow in this snowy wasteland.
In the end, both sides made a tacit agreement to withdraw their troops.
The Night Watchmen were unable to fight anymore and were forced to retreat.
The Wild Hunt, on the other hand, was shocked by the huge bloodshed.
As a result, both parties acquiesced to the other’s departure.
However, what is to come will still come.
The approaching hoar frost made the entire wild hunting group feel a strong existential crisis.
So, they have no choice.
On the second day of the war, the revitalized Wild Hunt army, led by their general Illerith, once again marched towards the Great Wall node.
At this time, the main force of the Night’s Watch, led by Commander-in-Chief Jeor Mormont, also arrived.
Confirmed eyes.
The two sides are mortal enemies.
So, on the bones that had just chilled the day before, the armies of both sides began to fight head-on again.
But this time, the Night Watchmen are in big trouble.
After the Wild Hunt army realized that they could not fall into a positional battle with these natives, they immediately asked Caranthir to retreat outside the coverage of the Great Wall node.
Then, they opened the portal and summoned their huge number of wild hunting dogs.
One-on-one, well-trained Night’s Watch warriors, all you have to do is focus.
With the steel sword in their hand, they can easily chop off the head of a wild hunting dog without armor protection.
However, let a night watchman and a sword face two, three or even more wild hunting dogs.
Since the style of the Night Watch is basically light to medium armor, there is no full body protection at all.
Then, it is easy to get hurt in front of this kind of creature that has no fear at all.
In this kind of life-and-death battlefield, being injured is basically equivalent to death.
Because your comrades don’t have time to save you.
The reason why Commander-in-Chief Jeor Mormont came personally led his troops.
It was when he realized that what Bran Stark and Clay Manderly had reminded him so far was correct.
My enemy is really coming for the weirwood!
Although we don’t quite understand this approach, we must stop what the enemy wants to do.
This principle applies everywhere.
Therefore, the commander-in-chief came with troops and ran into the large army of Wild Hunt.
Then there’s nothing to say, let’s start the war!
After a day of fighting, the main force of three hundred men of the Night Watch arrived.
When they left the battle, there were only one hundred and forty-two people left, more than half of whom were reduced.
On the Wild Hunt side, seventy-five soldiers were killed or injured.
The exchange ratio between the two sides went from close to one to one in the last battle to two to one this time.
A huge number of hounds launched a fearless charge.
Provided considerable help.
After Jeor Mormont retreated to Castle Black, he immediately understood that the Night’s Watch army could no longer fight.
After all, after two battles, their side had suffered more than 300 casualties.
It was equivalent to defeating their main field force.
Most of the remaining soldiers, with the exception of support personnel, were demoralized.
Therefore, Jeor Mormont immediately sent a raven to report the crisis situation here to Winterfell.
But in fact, the Three-Eyed Crow has been monitoring their situation here.
After all, the Great Wall nodes are still there.
He, who holds most of the memories of the North, probably knows the current state of the Night’s Watch better than Commander-in-Chief Jeor Mormont.
Therefore, He informed Clay of the Night Watch Legion and Castle Black’s imminent failure to defend.
Only then did Clay lead his troops to go north immediately.
To be honest, Clay didn’t think it could kill him when it came to the Wild Hunt.
They have magic, and so does Clay’s side.
If it really doesn’t work, I can hold back a lot of demon hunters and bulldoze them.
But the Great Wall doesn’t dare to cause problems. The White Walkers are unreasonable.
In the memory of his previous life, the Night King was also out of his mind.
Why gather all the White Walkers to fight against the city?
It also gave the dragon the opportunity to draw a line and burn it.
Clay complained at the time that he would be the Night King.
He directly ordered the White Walkers under his command to break into pieces and scatter into the vast wilderness.
There were only two dragons left, and the Night King had one of his own.
This is completely helpless against the White Walkers who are scattered everywhere.
Once the White Walkers used their black throats to swallow most of the population of the North.
At that time, Jon Snow was a real strong man descended from heaven, but he could not withstand the frenzy of hundreds of thousands of corpses.
Retreating to the south of Ningze was his only option.
In this life, I am the one facing this problem.
Clay couldn’t guarantee that the White Walkers would do such stupid things.
He and Daenerys combined were just four dragons.
If they get together, they will light up the fire for him.
But if the White Walkers are fighting guerrillas with Clay, there won’t be much difference between four dragons and two dragons.
There was nothing we could do before because the military strength was objectively insufficient.
In addition, I really didn’t know that the magic of the Great Wall of Despair was also deeply bound to the old gods.
Moreover, the Wild Hunt is progressing too quickly.
When he arrived in the north, the last Hearth City next to the north, Kahor City, was gone.
This gave the Wild Hunt army the opportunity to directly attack the Great Wall.
Now, he had to quickly find a way to solve this problem.
Otherwise, if something goes wrong with the Great Wall’s magic circle, it would be ugly.
At that time, all we can do is strengthen the walls and clear the country, or evacuate the entire northern border population.
These guys and Han Shen must have reached some kind of agreement.
Imagine that if the Wild Hunt opened a portal for the White Walkers and allowed the wights to pass through, the problem of the Wild Hunt’s insufficient strength would be solved immediately.
And this will cause an irresistible crisis for any army that wants to fight with them.
The army slept and ate all the way, and quickly approached the north along the King’s Road.
All the elite scouts were dispersed.
Everyone must know the movements of the four people closest to him in advance.
Once the scouts on either side do not return within the specified time, they must report it immediately so that the army has time to react and be on alert in advance.
Clay couldn’t bet that the Wild Hunt wouldn’t get him.
In today’s Northern Territory, where magical forces are intertwined and mixed, any action taken by one’s side will carry a very high risk of exposure.
Just like the Three-Eyed Raven watched the entire battle for the Black Castle node.
If you can see them, there’s a good chance they can see you.
It’s all mutual.
Therefore, you must be careful and careful when going north.
These days of fear came to an end when Clay’s troops reached the west bank of Chang Lake in the north.
The six sentries sent out to detect the situation in the northwest direction all disappeared and never returned.
Other sentries immediately reported the news to Clay, who was discussing the war situation in the south with Jon Amber.
The two people looked at each other and instantly understood that something was coming.
“Order, the army expands toward the northwest, and the heavy shielders establish a defense line on the outer layer. Be careful not to leave any gaps inside the military formation.”
This is already within the control range of the last Hearth City node.
When this node collapsed, this place was already covered by wild hunting’s hoarfrost.
The Wild Hunt army discovered them, so if there is a gap in the military formation that can open a portal, it will easily be bloomed in their center.
Clay knows this very well, so this time, even if the speed is slowed down, the lineup must be rigorous.
Now, the war is coming.
The Wild Hunt’s troops had exposed their position after eating his scouts.
They are just north of Long Lake and are approaching here quickly.
The desolate horn sounded, and after the soldiers heard it, under the command of the grassroots generals, they began to form an array in a slightly flustered manner.
Heavy shields lay across the boundless snowfield.
They are the first line of defense for the army.
After the military formation changed to the enemy’s state, the place fell into an eerie tranquility.
But the deep sense of uneasiness is getting stronger and stronger.
The Wild Hunt army did not keep them waiting.
Soon, a strong blizzard appeared from the northern sky like a wall stretching from heaven to earth, pushing straight towards them.
Although this is the northern border.
But now, it is the home field of the Wild Hunting Army.
Although their main army is not here, the navigator staying nearby can still open the portal.
Summon a sufficient number of Wild Hunting Dogs here.
They knew that this army of eight thousand people was not something they could stop.
As long as they can be delayed with hoarfrost and worthless hounds, they will be dragged here until their northern compatriots can clear the barrier.
Their mission is considered complete.
…
Stormlands
Black Harbor City
This castle is located in the Dorne Frontier, in the north of the Crimson Mountains, close to the Dorne border.
It is the seat of the Dondarrion family.
The current Earl of Blackport City is Baley Dondarrion.
This guy with the nickname “Lightning King” is actually half of Clay’s allies.
Because in his heart, he has always been loyal to Stark and Robert Baratheon, who has turned into bones.
For Renly and Stannis, including Joffrey Baratheon’s treasonous behavior, they hate evil and do not support any of them.
After Renly returned to the Stormlands, he repeatedly summoned Baley Dondarrion to Storm’s End.
But this very individual Earl of Blackport City ignored him at all.
After Daenerys appears in Dorne with the Targaryen banner.
He began to struggle internally.
Black Harbor City is not just a corner in a barren mountain.
As it is close to the border of Dorne, it is a military hub for guarding the Bone Road and preventing Dorne from invading the north. It is also an important security town for suppressing mountain bandits.
The military status of Black Harbor City is quite high.
It is simply impossible for the Dornish people to enter the Stormlands without destroying Blackport City.
The previous lords of Dondarrion have indeed played their roles well.
But now, Baley Dondarrion, deeply influenced by Thoros the Red Monk, and disgusted by Renly’s actions.
I don’t know if I should continue to guard the border for the entire Storm Land.
Storm’s End was no longer worthy of his allegiance.
So the question is, to whom does he owe his allegiance?
Self-reliance?
Don’t be ridiculous, this is a place that both sides will fight for.
It also decided that he would never be able to live alone.
In this entanglement, he waited for news of the war.
The Prince of Dorne, that insidious red snake, personally led an army of twenty thousand men and marched out of the Prince’s Pass.
All the way along the avenue, heading towards his Black Harbor City.
The messenger has arrived.
Simple, clear and extremely domineering.
Surrender and join the founding of the Mandalay-Targaryen dynasty, or be crushed by his 20,000-strong army.
Prince Oberyn Martell promised in the letter.
If Blackport City wants to be an enemy of his army.
Then, he guaranteed that the Dondarrion family’s inheritance would be completely cut off.
The army marched vigorously and resolutely.
With the help of Dorn who had suppressed the fire of attack from top to bottom, in just six days, they fought all the way from the sky to the city to the foot of Blackport City.
The army surrounded this small castle, but the height of the walls was comparable to King’s Landing and Harrenhal.
The spear-pierced flag fluttered in the four directions of Black Harbor City under the scorching sun.
Yes, even if the North and the Riverlands are already covered in snow.
But in the Dorne Frontier far to the south, it was still warm and slightly hot.
Oberyn Martell holds a poisoned spear and stands outside the southern city of Castle Black.
Eyes as black as eternal night stared at the castle in front of him.
Rarely, there was no contempt.
He knew very well that this castle and this family were definitely not easy to deal with.
If he could get them to surrender, his 20,000-strong army would suffer far fewer casualties.
Moreover, Blackport City surrendered without a strong fortress or powerful family behind it.
After the army crosses the mountains, it can go straight into the belly of the stormy land.
Just as Oberon was about to order an attack on the city.
The city gate of Black Harbor City suddenly rumbled open.
A knight from the Dondarrion family rode out of the city under the banner of the lightning four-pointed star.
Not afraid of the power of the 20,000-strong army, they ran towards the banner of the Dornish army.
They recognized Oberon.
The name “Red Viper” is known to all seven countries.
Moreover, except for him, no one would show off in front of the army.
Still far away, Oberon shouted at the knight:
“Dondarrions, are you here to surrender?”
Always flamboyant, Oberyn Martell never knew what it meant to be restrained.
The knight came to the Prince of Dorne, took off his helmet, and glanced at him.
Then he explained his purpose:
“Lord Baley Dondarrion, I wish to have a duel with His Highness Prince Oberon.”
“Leave the ownership of Blackport City to the will of the gods.”
