The fine snowflakes began to grow larger, and the leaden sky became darker,
I don't know who sang a song called "Jenny of Wild Rock City", the tune was melodious and reverberated in the city.
After a short rest,
The whole Winterfell wakes up in the light of fire!
Knights from various families began to gather, and groups of soldiers rushed back and forth to their predetermined positions.
All the women and children in the city have entered the tomb passage below, including Tyrion, although he is reluctant.
Bran went to the godswood under the protection of Theon and a group of ironborn. The whole group of soldiers moved forward silently.
Arya, Sansa and many archers stood quietly on the city wall, watching the defenders outside the city gradually form into square formations.
Teams of Unsullied lined up outside the city. They stood closest to the city wall, with trenches and fences dug behind them, which were the last line of defense in front of the city wall.
In front of the Unsullied is a row of heavy trebuchets. Beside each trebuchet, enough flints are prepared, which will burn when exposed to fire. When they hit the ground, they will shatter and sputter into a burning sea of fire.
Further forward, there were Dothraki cavalry and wild men. They stood silently. The low air made the horses quiet down. There was not even a sound of horses in the huge cavalry array! The silence was so breathtaking that it was difficult to breathe.
Then, a row of warriors, Brienne, Jorah, Tormund, the Night's Watch, Jaime, and the Hound, all of them stared at the darkness in the distance!
It's too dark! Waves of biting coldness rush in from the darkness, like a dark abyss, opening its mouth to swallow up all the warm life.
The dead are coming! They are right on the opposite side, in the darkness, watching me helplessly.
…
The silence before the battle was interrupted by a burst of spells. The red-robed woman Melisandre stood in front of the Dothraki cavalry phalanx. Her hand was on the cavalry's scimitar, and she kept chanting something that no one could understand.
The spell, in a strange tone,
No one interrupted her. At this time, Winterfell was filled with people from all over the continent and from all faiths. They could accept any kind of prayer.
Suddenly, there was a flash of fire in the darkness, and the scimitar in the hand of the red-robed woman burst into flames! Cutting through the darkness.
Then, the overwhelming fire swept away at an extremely fast speed in front of everyone's eyes! In the entire Dothraki cavalry phalanx, the scimitars in the hands of all the cavalry burned!
The fire gathered into a sea! It lit up the entire sky of Winterfell!
The miraculous fire dispels the darkness and gives people courage!
The war horses began to neigh! The beast-like howls of the Dothraki came one after another.
They seem to be blessed with a halo of courage, tenacity, fearlessness, etc.
Then start charging!
The flaming phalanx of the Dothraki cavalry pierced the boundless darkness like a huge arrow.
…
To the east of Winterfell, on a high mountain, three figures stood on the edge of the cliff. They were Lynn, Daenerys and Snow.
From where they stood they had a clear view of the entire battlefield, and Dany's face glowed with pride as the Dothraki cavalry charged.
But this pride did not last ten minutes...
The sea of fire that originally illuminated the sky was extinguished one by one like the stars in the sky, until the last star disappeared, and darkness returned to the distance, getting darker, and countless tiny chewing sounds could be heard that made the whole body chill...
…
The fearless Unsullied remained motionless, their commander Gray Worm put on his helmet and stared straight into the darkness! Valley
"The Unsullied!"
"Roar!"
Uniform shouts, precise movements, and pieces of dragon crystal spears pointing diagonally forward!
The momentum is serious and never retreats even half a step!
But not everyone is Unsullied!
The savages began to panic. They were driven all the way here by these corpses. How could they not be afraid? But they were not the first to run away.
The well-equipped nobles could not bear the pressure at first. The surge of darkness and the faint sound of chewing made them escape without looking back, in twos and threes, and gradually more!
"Hold your position!!!" The general's roar reached the cliff.
Lin En on the cliff sneered!
"Why are you laughing?" Dany asked dissatisfiedly with a pale face.
Lin En said nonchalantly: "I don't know who set up the defensive formation, but listen to my advice. If you are still alive after this battle, replace him!"
"What's the problem with this?" Jon looked over. The defense plan was specified by him at the meeting. Everyone was there at the time, and no one said anything. This Linn is now laughing at the battle plan in front of his queen, but he just doesn't want it.
Have good intentions!
“There are so many questions, I don’t know where to start!”
Lin En complained first, then pointed at the charging Dothraki cavalry and said: "It's okay to put the cavalry outside, but why do they have to be placed in front?"
"They don't even have a piece of iron armor on their bodies. Once they fall into the sea of people in a frontal charge, those corpses can tear them apart with their hands and teeth!"
"Also, why should the catapult be placed outside the city? How many times can it be used there? Even if the city wall is too narrow to fit, it should be placed inside the city! With the height of the Winter City Wall being two feet, it can be placed calmly and play its role.
To the maximum!”
"The most ridiculous thing is that the Unsullied are the most fearless shields! But why should they be placed outside the trench?"
"Putting it inside the trench will obviously have a better killing effect. If the zombies break through the trench, the Unsullied can still get support from the archers on the city wall, so they can hold on longer!"
"The last thing is the defense of the city wall. Why didn't I see you preparing kerosene or asphalt? You told me that the zombies are afraid of fire, right? Didn't you use it when you were guarding the Great Wall?"
"Now this kind of defense is completely independent! Do you think fighting is a game of stacking blocks?"
Lin En's sarcastic tone embarrassed the two of them, but the various problems he pointed out made their hearts freeze!
This is not actually what Lynn preached.
Strictly speaking, Dany and Snow can basically be regarded as laymen when it comes to war.
Dany fought on a dragon and breathed fire. Snow fought in a battle of guarding the wall and a battle of bastards. Both times, he was confused. Stannis rescued him in the first time. The second update
It had the opposite effect. If the valley cavalry hadn't arrived quickly, his bones would have been rotten!
Snow's talent in combat is far behind that of Young Wolf Lord Robb!
"Then why are you saying it now?"
"My purpose is to kill the Night King, not to defend Winterfell! Besides, those Dothraki cavalry are predatory, and I don't care how many people die."
Sure enough, as Lin En said, the boundless darkness surged towards the Unsullied like a wave.
The catapults have become disposable decorations, and the city walls are too far away to support them. The Unsullied and the Savages can only fight against them head-on.
Dany's face could not be said to be ugly, but angry. She turned and walked towards Drogon.
