Chapter 186 Goal
Jon walked out of the tower, the night was gloomy and gloomy, the snow stopped falling in the afternoon, at this time in the dark and cold, only the sky and the earth were dark blue.

The military camp in the Stormlands is just outside Castle Black, lined up with wooden towers and stone castles. Was swept to the sides.

After the snowfall began, Cole returned to his barracks from the King's Tower.

Walking through the corridor, Jon approached the center of the entire barracks, where Cole's tent was located.

You can see the candle flames coming from outside the tent.

When Jon approached here, the patrolling knights found him. The knight in charge of patrolling around the tent was Duran. Holding a two-handed battle ax and a armed sword hanging on his waist, the sound of the chain armor made a tinkling sound, and the black ring armor on the outer cover seemed to be colder than ice and snow.

They were all very tall, and there were not many taller men in the Night's Watch.

"Jon Snow, His Royal Highness has been waiting in the big tent for a long time." Duran gave way to him.

He pushed open the door cloth of the tent, and it was much warmer inside than outside. A charcoal and steel basin was lit in the center of the tent, but Cole was sitting by the candlelight on the table and reading a book.

"You like to read?" Jon asked him.

Cole closed the book, "Books are the greatest invention of mankind, and we can learn a lot from them." He pointed to the chair next to the charcoal basin, "Please sit down, Lord Commander."

The brazier was originally prepared for himself. Jon sat on the sheepskin upholstered chair, and the smoke from the charcoal fire pierced his eyes, causing him to blink several times quickly.

"There are quite a few records about the Night Watchman in the Night Watchman's library, maybe you can read them for general reading, which will be of great help to you as the commander-in-chief of the Night Watchman." Cole said to him.

"Sam has been in charge of taking care of the books there. He often praises you. Maybe you will have more topics to talk about." Before Sam, Cole was helping Maester Aemon take care of the library.

"Samwell Tarly, this is the name I've heard the most on the Great Wall. Grant told me that he killed a White Walker. Have you ever seen that monster with your own eyes?"

Jon shook his head.

"They said you also killed a ghoul, what do you think is our chance of winning if we fight this monster?" Cole asked him.

Confusion crept into Jon's eyes, he didn't know.

"We know very little about the White Walkers, how many they have, and what their purpose is. But there is no doubt that the White Walkers are the enemy."

Jon agreed.

"So what do you want me to do?" Jon asked.

"Do you know how many wildlings there are outside the Great Wall?" Cole asked back.

"Ten thousand, a hundred thousand, no count. But Mance Rayder said he had tens of thousands" He only counted how many giants and mammoths they had.

"White ghosts have the ability to resurrect the dead. The more dead people, the more ghouls they have. If there are [-] wildlings outside the Great Wall north of the Great Wall, then the enemy may have [-] ghouls. Do you think that with this The wall, and the current night watchman, can you stop a hundred thousand ghouls, Jon."

Although Cole's alarmist words were quite exaggerated, Jon still understood what he meant. Their enemy was not the wildlings, but those mysterious eccentric spirits.

"Anyway, the duty of the Night's Watch is to hold the Wall," Jon told him.

"The night is coming, Jon Snow." Cole said with a solemn expression, "If you think this is just a matter of the night watchmen, you are wrong. This is a disaster for mankind. If the White Walkers break through the Great Wall, then What can stop them in the south, Winterfell? King's Landing?"

"But besides father and you, who will come to support the Great Wall." Jon couldn't help asking.

Cole nodded in his heart, you finally see the point, Jon.

"Yes, after the death of Robert Baratheon, wars continued in the south. Compared with the fate of mankind, the princes and lords in the south are more greedy for the rights in their hands."

"The Night's Watch will not interfere with anything in the Seven Kingdoms." He vaguely guessed what Cole wanted him to do.

"Do you know why I came all the way to the Great Wall? Jon. The Stormlands need me more than here. I can send a trusted knight to support the Night's Watch, but I'm still here. said Cole.

"In addition to the Starks of Winterfell, there are actually your relatives alive." Cole told him, "Your father Rhaegar Targaryen, and his sister Daenerys Targaryen are living on the other side of the narrow sea." The Free Cities stand ready to take back the Targaryen throne."

Jon frowned, and after a moment of silence, he asked, "Why did you tell me this? What exactly do you want?"

"Look at my hair." Cole pointed at the silver hair, "That's all I can tell you for now."

He looked at Cole's silver hair and fell into deep thought.

Taking a bundle of scrolls from the table, Cole pulled out the top knot and spread the scrolls on the table. "This is the map of Westeros. As the commander-in-chief of the Night Watchman, you can't just confine your eyes to one acre of land on the Great Wall, Jon. Although the position of the Night Watchman is separated from the Seven Kingdoms, as long as you live On this continent, it is impossible to sever ties with the kingdom."

Jon stood up and walked over to the table.

Cole pointed him to a small island with the word Dragonstone Island written on it, "This is where the Targaryen family first landed on the continent of Westeros, Dragonstone Island. Now it is occupied by the Golden Group." He said Pointing to another point, it is a bay, "This is Crab Bay, the fleet from Lannister Harbor and Arbor Island is docking here. There is a war in this sea area, and the purpose of my trip north is exactly To end this war."

"Finish?"

"That's right." Cole nodded. "Only after the war in the south is over, can the Seven Kingdoms turn their attention to the north."

"The Golden Company is fighting for Daenerys, and I will fight for House Targaryen." He continued, "Crab Bay gathers the entire Lannister fleet, and this is what hinders Daenerys. With her husband, Khal Drogo, the main force of the army that landed in Westeros."

"You're thinking"

"Yes, my goal is this fleet, take them, or destroy them." This is the purpose of his trip north. "So I hope to form an alliance with the North, and that needs your help, Jon."

With the ships and men in his hands it was difficult to do, so Stark had to help.

If he was facing Eddard Stark, he wouldn't say so much, and he wouldn't show his support for Targaryen, just explain that he was dealing with their common enemy Lannister, Presumably with his help to the Duke of Winterfell, the alliance will be easily reached.

Unfortunately it backfired.
