Game of Thrones: Royal Game

After Ian's order was passed on, the firepower of the fortresses on the east bank of the Skull Bridge began to weaken one after another, and the zombie army that was originally unable to advance on the bridge also successfully gradually approached the east bank.

Perhaps after discovering that the defenders were running low on arrows, the attacking White Walkers finally issued the order for a general attack.

First, the Ice Giant, who had razed the castle "West Bridge View" abandoned by Ian on the west bank of the Grand Canyon to the ground, finally jumped out from the top of the rift canyon and jumped into the deep canyon. Then densely packed corpses began to emerge from the thick fog and rushed onto the Skull Bridge.

"They still have a reserve team!" Lord Roose Bolton couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this. "The White Walkers kept resurrecting the corpses who were shot on the bridge before, not because they only had this small resource of troops, but because they wanted to use this There is no other way to consume our dragon crystal arrows! These ghoul pioneers have become dilapidated in the process of being killed more than ten times, but the ghoul in the reserve team are still in peak condition!"

"If His Majesty hadn't asked us to pretend to run out of arrows and deceive the enemy's trump card in advance, the consequences would have been disastrous when we encountered these corpses after we really ran out of arrows." Count Jon Rothstein nodded repeatedly. This senior sergeant of the Golden Company successfully secured a large castle in the West after following Ian back to Westeros, and is now one of the deputy commanders of the Shadow Tower.

"How many reserves have the ghouls prepared? Ten thousand? Twenty thousand? Or more?" Looking at the dense black spots that kept appearing on the west bank, the red-robed monk Ma Qiluo also felt anxious, "How could they have So many troops?”

"Those returning savages said that they lost a lot of people in the process of going south. In addition, those tribes who did not accept the call of the 'King Beyond the Wall' to join the savage army at the beginning, plus some animals and relatively few With such fresh corpses, it shouldn't be difficult for the White Walkers to assemble an army of tens of thousands." Ian then smiled.

"Your Majesty, from your tone, you seem to be very happy about this?" Jon Rothstein was very surprised. "The appearance of these corpses has brought the morale of our soldiers to a low point."

"If the servants of the Cold God can only gather a few thousand ghouls, it is impossible for them to launch an invasion southward. In other words, these tens of thousands of ghouls must exist. The only question is, where are they? ?”

"So your Majesty, you have carried out the most rigorous deployment on the entire Great Wall." Count Luce immediately understood what Ian meant, "Even after we discovered this ice giant, you only mobilized General Fermor's 20,000 People came here to support, but Lord Eddard Stark, Ser Denys Mallister, and General Belicio were still left behind on other lines of defense."

"Yes, originally I had been worried that the enemy would use this ice giant as a cover to attract our main force to the Shadow Tower, and then use the main force of the zombie army to attack the other end of the Great Wall. Once they opened a gap in the Great Wall, like a fish Entering the sea, the entire northern population may become their potential source of troops, so I left more than half of my troops on the east side of the Great Wall." Ian said for a moment, "But now it seems that the enemy does not have such a Courage or brains."

"But in this case, the pressure will be all on our side." Count Jon Rothstein frowned.

"We can withstand the pressure better than anyone else. His Majesty himself is here, there are dragons on standby behind the castle, and the Unsullied are here to supervise the battle team." Roose Bolton fully understood Ian's thoughts, "In A decisive battle with the enemy's main force here is the most favorable situation for us."

"The firepower of many fortresses has become fierce again." Suddenly, Luce looked up at the sky and found that the number of arrows began to increase again. He quickly ordered the herald, "Go and warn them not to be frightened by the new enemies." Instead, strictly carry out His Majesty’s orders.”

"No," Ian immediately interrupted, "It's normal for people to be frightened by unexpected situations and lose control for a moment. Let them pour out firepower crazily, and then stop firing arrows completely to create our arrows. The illusion of complete exhaustion.”

"Then the enemy will take this opportunity to completely break through the Skull Bridge! Once the White Walkers approach the bridge on the east bank, the wildfire we set..." The red-robed monk Magi Luo wanted to say, 'It will not be able to burn', but suddenly Thinking of Ian's previous vow that he could kill the White Walkers with wildfire, he couldn't help but shut his mouth.

"I have to go to the front line to ensure that they can implement your orders, Your Majesty." Luce glanced at Magiro, and then asked Ian for instructions. "Yes." Ian nodded and looked at the other generals standing beside him, "You all go to the front line to supervise the battle and ensure that everyone faithfully implements my instructions."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The generals quickly left after receiving the order.

Ian's new order was quickly transmitted to various fortresses on the east coast, followed by a torrential downpour of firepower, and a large number of ghouls who had just poured onto the bridge fell to the ground. Not long after, the arrow rain stopped abruptly, and in just a few minutes, the firepower projections from the east coast ended one after another.

After realizing this, the White Walkers completely abandoned the corpses of the vanguard corpses that had been shot into sieves, only resurrected the new reserve team, and then launched a fierce attack on the east bank of the Skull Bridge.

It seems that they know that humans have hidden a large number of wildfires in the bridgehead fortress. In order to prevent the bridgehead defenders from lighting wildfires and blowing up the bridge, the White Walkers took the lead this time and rushed to the front of the bridgehead, trying to use ice magic to prevent the ignition of wildfires.

However, the moment they approached the bridgehead, the entire bridgehead, together with the White Walkers and the corpses around them, melted like paraffin in the green firelight.

Immediately afterwards, the skull bridge across the Grand Canyon began to crash from the east side, and the White Walkers and thousands of corpses who had already boarded the bridge fell into the valley. At the same time, a large number of corpses resurrected by the melted White Walkers also lost their 'vitality' at this moment.

For a time, the entire east coast burst into cheers, and the gloom that had previously enveloped the hearts of the soldiers seemed to be swept away.

"How is it possible?" The only one who was confused about this was Ma Qiluo. Compared with other laymen who couldn't understand, he knew how incredible this kind of thing was. "I want to survive the blizzard dropped by the cold god. To use fire to harm the White Walkers, you must use very powerful fire magic materials to enchant the wildfire, and such materials are almost extinct in this era. Your Majesty, what exactly did you add to the wildfire?"

"Remember our trip to the Dreamland of the River Rhoyne? There, we sacrificed a wizarding dragon king of ancient Valyria to the Lord of Light."

"You kept the ashes of that witchcraft dragon king?!" Magi Luo immediately exclaimed, "You shouldn't do this. The dragon king is your sacrifice to the King of Light."

"The Red God only took away the power from the Dragon King's blood," Ian interrupted directly. "Since He didn't take away the remaining power from the Dragon King's body, but left it to me, isn't he preparing for today? ?"

"It turns out that everything is the will of the King of Light." Magi Luo quickly lowered his head after hearing this, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I shouldn't question you."

In fact, the King of Light simply cannot take away power through means other than blood. Ian sneered, but what is the difference between my will and the so-called King of Light's will? (End of chapter)
