From the perspective of the original work, the biggest contributor should be Stannis.
But now that Stannis has been beaten back to Dragonstone by Gao Bin, he can't count on anything. The only thing he can rely on is his nearly 100,000 troops!
Due to the cold weather in the north, the temperature gets lower as you go north. When the army assembled in the north, they uniformly changed their uniforms and added a layer of velvet to the armor.
Don't underestimate this thin layer of velvet, it can serve a great purpose and will not affect the soldiers' activities.
Each soldier was also issued a fur collar, which was the material Gao Bin had asked Ned to prepare in the north early. This shows that he had already made full plans for the savage war.
What's even more frightening is his self-confidence. He was sure that he could sit on the Iron Throne before the fight began.
Because of this detail, the princes from all walks of life respected and feared Gao Bin. Such thoughts and courage were beyond the reach of ordinary people!
At this time, the Stark family was already in King's Landing. Gao Bin made this arrangement in the hope that Ned's status and ability would help him stabilize the situation in King's Landing.
Although he trusted the little devil, he had to be wary of others. What if the dwarf betrayed him? Someone had to check and balance him, and Ned was the best candidate.
The North is the territory Gao Bin left for Bran. When Stark grows old, Bran will become the new Duke of the North.
As for Snow, he is the natural leader of the Night's Watch. After he stabilizes the situation, Snow will be sent to the Great Wall to garrison and lead the new Night's Watch army to resist the White Walkers!
He has made arrangements for the boys in the family, while the girls are more casual. He gives them absolute freedom. If they are willing to marry, Gao Bin will find a good family for them. If they are not willing, they will be alone for the rest of their lives. Anyway, the family is not short of money.
, can afford it.
But the current North was still a borderless land before Bran grew up.
Of course, even if they borrowed the courage of those vassals, they would not dare to rebel. The lessons learned from the Bolton family are still fresh in their minds. Who wants to be killed for no apparent reason?
The army arrived at the foot of the Great Wall. Gao Bin rode on a pure black horse, looking at the man-made moat and lamenting the energy of people in this world.
How can such a building be built by manpower?
The new King arrived, and the former commander-in-chief Ormen was killed. The new commander Gao Bin did not even give him a chance to meet, and directly announced that he would take over the defense of the Great Wall.
The 100,000 legions he brought with him were quickly distributed at various defense points on the Great Wall.
Gao Bin, on the other hand, took 8,000 heavy cavalry and 45,000 infantry to sit in the Black Castle, waiting for the arrival of the savages.
Castle Black is located east of the Queen's Gate, west of the Oak Shield, close to the center of the Great Wall, and at the northern end of the King's Road.
Although there are nineteen fortresses along the Wall, the Night's Watch is stationed at only three fortresses, and Castle Black is one of them.
There used to be more than 5,000 people living in this castle, but now there are only a few hundred.
The main castle is not a real castle. There are no city walls on its east, west, and south sides, and only the Great Wall of Despair stands on the north side.
It consists of several stone towers and wooden fortresses.
There are some underground passages called "worm passages" under the fortress and towers, connecting them with each other.
It is rarely used in the summer, but in the winter, it is the only passage connecting all parts of the castle.
There is only a small church in Castle Black, but no sacred wood.
Those who believe in the Old Gods have to go beyond the Great Wall, deep into the Haunted Forest, and make an oath in a small piece of weirwood forest left by the Children of the Forest.
Command Tower, the residence of the Commander-in-Chief.
King's Tower, a 100-foot-tall round tower with city teeth on the top, from which you can see the gate and the wooden stairs leading to the Great Wall.
The oak door at the entrance is inlaid with iron nails.
Although it was prepared for distinguished guests and named after the king, no king has ever arrived here in more than a hundred years.
Until Gao Bin's arrival.
Harding's Tower is severely tilted, the defensive wall is damaged, and the stones from it have fallen into the field.
Although the Spear Tower is only one-third of the height of the Great Wall, it is the tallest tower in the castle. It is tall and slender and is on the verge of collapse.
The Guard Tower, the strongest tower, is located next to the King's Avenue and the Great Wall, overlooking the city gate and the bottom of the wooden stairs.
The Tower of Silence, a tower in Castle Black.
The main hall of the castle is a wooden structure, with crows perching on the high wooden ceiling.
The storage room is underground, including a grain warehouse and a library.
There are some records and books in the library that even the Citadel does not have, about the faces painted on the weirwoods, the language of the Children of the Forest, the scrolls of Valyria, etc.
Shields Hall - Once part of Castle Black, it is a large dining room made of black stone.
When the Night's Watch was still very powerful, its walls were covered with bright shields.
When a knight puts on black clothes, he will lose his original equipment and identity and put on the black oak shield of the Night's Watch.
His original shield will be hung on the wall of the Shield Hall.
Gate, Castle Black guards one of the two known passages through the Wall (the other is the Black Gate).
The passage through the Great Wall is long, winding and narrow.
There are three locked iron bars in the passage, and each door is locked. There is a trap above the door for placing hidden arrows. The door outside the passage is made of solid oak and is nine inches thick.
The passage to reach the top is a zigzag staircase. From Castle Black, you can go up the stairs to the top of the Great Wall.
It is made of wood and held in place by huge beams.
Noose lifts were used to transport supplies and people up the Great Wall.
It is an iron cage suspended by a noose, used to carry ten people or the same weight of supplies up and down the surface of the Great Wall. It is located near the well of Castle Black.
The top facility, a warm cabin for those on guard duty, is located near the crane.
This is the entire structure of Castle Black.
Gao Bin took a quick walk around and concluded that it was terrible.
If it weren't for the amazing defensive power of the Great Wall itself, I'm afraid the North would have been captured by the White Walkers and Savages long ago.
Back in the hall, the princes are all drinking hot tea to keep warm. It's really cold here. If you don't drink something to replenish your calories, you will soon be frozen.
The scout troops have been sent out. A total of 12 teams are searching in different directions. Once the enemy is found, report back immediately!
The waiting time is long, but Gao Bin has been arranging tasks, so everyone will not have nothing to do.
The fastest scout came back in less than half a day, which meant that the savage army was not far from the Great Wall.
The slowest reconnaissance team also took more than ten hours to return.
The situation was not optimistic. An army of 100,000 savages had already gathered in the Ghost Forest. The reconnaissance team was afraid of being discovered, so they did not get too close and turned back when they found the target.
As night fell, as the ghost forest burst into flames, Gao Bin knew that the war had begun.
The savages climbed the Great Wall in batches, trying to climb up the Great Wall with awls.
On the legion's side, they hung themselves with ropes, perpendicular to the city wall, and shot at the climbers with bows and arrows.
Some of the savages shot back arrows, but they fell down in mid-air.
However, the giants' iron arrows shot directly through the defenses at the top of the Great Wall, causing huge damage to the defenders.
Since it was difficult to climb the Wall, Mance Rayder ordered the wildlings to attack the tunnel.
The Great Wall of Despair has no gates. Castle Black enters the outside of the wall through a long tunnel. This tunnel has several iron fences locked with heavy chains. They are all four-foot-wide cold-rolled steel bars that can block most enemy attacks. If necessary,
At that time, it can also be sealed permanently with ice, snow, sand and gravel.
The savages began to attack the tunnel gate. The vanguard encountered barrels filled with stones and ice from the defenders and suffered heavy losses, but they bought time for the giants and mammoths.
Unfortunately, Gao Bin made sufficient material preparations for this war, and the huge losses of the savages did not bring effective help to the giants and mammoths.
They had no choice but to attack by force. The giant hung a huge iron hook on the iron fence of the outer gate. The savages drove the mammoths to pull the rope forward, and a giant used an iron lever to move the iron fence.
Three "monsters" are trying to pull the heavy outer door.
The iron gate was shaking. Seeing this, Gao Bin ordered the oil to be poured out. Several burning oil barrels were thrown at the mammoth. Fortunately, the explosion burned the cable and frightened the mammoth. Another giant tried to chase, and then
He was shot to the ground by a giant crossbow on the city wall.
The remaining giant tried to lift the steel outer door by himself and got into the tunnel, but was penetrated by more than a dozen giant crossbows and stuck in the ground. It won't take long for him to become a sculpture.
Mance Rayder knew that the Wall was like a chasm and a frontal attack would be difficult to achieve, but he didn't expect that there were so many people in the Night's Watch.
If he had known that the new king of Westeros had arrived, I wonder if he would have launched this war.
But now, even if he knows, it's too late, Gao Bin will not let him go.
The heavy cavalry was ready to go, bypassed the Great Wall, and penetrated directly into the belly of the savage army from the side.
Looking down from the Great Wall, the black heavy cavalry is like a steel sword, directly killing the savage troops.
Because the force was so strong, it took a full kilometer to slow down and turn around, readjust the formation, and launch the charge again.
Going back and forth several times, the savage troops were killed in pieces.
At this time, the infantry that had been prepared poured out of the tunnel and collided head-on with the savage army.
Jon Snow also put on armor and led the attack, killing all parties in the chaos.
Soon, he became the target of the wildlings, and was approached by the angry Thenn Stir. Stir almost beat Jon, and the ax knocked Jon's "Long Claw" into the mire.<
/p>
At the critical moment, Jon sprayed a mouthful of blood on Steve's face, then picked up the hammer next to him and hit his head with one blow!
Sid's death means the failure of the Savage Raid Plan!
Outside the Great Wall, the savages were still climbing the Great Wall desperately. Seeing that they were halfway up, the defenders suddenly activated their killer weapons. The huge steel sickle broke through the ice. Under the influence of gravity and iron chains, it looked like the sickle of death.
, harvesting the lives of savages.
The giant scythe that sliced through the ice wall completely destroyed the wildlings' plan to climb over the Great Wall, and Mance Rayder had to temporarily withdraw his troops.
Retreat? Where to retreat! The savages don’t have a black castle to station themselves in.
Gao Bin ordered to pursue the victory, and the heavy cavalry took the lead. Those who ran slowly were left alone. Those who ran fast, no matter how fast they were, could they be faster than four legs?
Mance Rayder saw that the opponent was gaining the upper hand and showed no mercy, so he ordered a counterattack in anger.
But the heavy cavalry regiment led by Anderson didn't give them a chance to resist, and rolled them over like tanks.
Those who were lucky were killed by swords, while those who were unlucky were knocked away by horses and lay on the ground vomiting blood. In the end, they could not escape death.
More and more wildlings died. Mance Rayder knew that the end was over and raised the white flag high to surrender.
This guy still doesn't give up and hopes to negotiate with the commander.
Let's talk, Gao Bin also wants to use them to fight the White Walkers.
So a banquet was held in Castle Black to entertain Mance Rayder. Looking at the dejected savage prince, Gao Bin signaled:
"Try it, how long has it been since you had these?"
Mance Rayder is of medium height, with slender legs, a strong build, and broad shoulders and chest.
He once had long brown hair, but now it has almost turned gray, and the corners of his mouth have also developed smile lines.
His appearance is unremarkable, he is just an ordinary middle-aged man.
As a child of the night watchman, he certainly knew what Gao Bin meant when he said that - everyone is originally one of our own, there is no need to fight, as long as you are still willing to obey.
"Who are you?" Mance Rayder asked.
"The new king of the Seven Kingdoms—Gao Stark!" Anderson, who took off his military uniform and continued to serve as Gao Bin's bodyguard, said.
"New king? Where is Robert?" Mance Rayder was a little confused.
"Robert is in the past, Mance, you also need to look forward." Gao Bin said meaningfully.
"Your troops are very powerful." Mance Rayder said dejectedly.
"Thank you, they deserve your praise."
"In that case, you can kill or cut into pieces as you wish."
"No, if I want to kill you, I can kill you outside. Why wait until now?"
"What's the point of keeping me?"
"Savages are free people. They are called savages just because of their different beliefs. But many of us are not ghosts!"
Mance Rayder was not a fool, he reacted immediately:
"You want to recruit freedmen?"
"To be precise, it's cooperation!"
"What kind of cooperation method?"
"I will find an area for you to take root near the Great Wall, so that your life will be more stable, and you will no longer have to suffer the erosion of the cold. In return, when the White Walkers attack, the free people will automatically join the Night's Watch to resist the White Walkers."<
/p>
Gao Bin puts forward his own conditions!
"White ghost?" Mance Rayder's pupils shrank. Obviously, he didn't know the news yet.
"Yes, my people have seen the presence of White Walkers more than once and fought with heavy losses!"
Mance Rayder growled:
"Damn it, aren't they all dead?"
"Obviously not, Mance, you and I have a common enemy and can completely cooperate. As for this battle, I can forget about it!"
Mance Rayder couldn't help but said:
"What are you afraid of? Legend has it that the Great Wall can resist the White Walkers!"
These White Walkers are tall and gaunt, with skin as pale as milk, eyes as cold and burning as ice, and a deeper blue than any human eyes;
The description of the ghost woman married by the Night King in the legend is similar, with skin as pale as the moon and eyes like blue stars.
Their reflective armor changes color as they move, somewhat like the hidden armor worn by the legendary children of the forest.
They have superb swordsmanship, wielding long swords that look like thin crystal fragments that emit a strange blue light, as if they are so cold that they can shatter any object it touches, including the steel long swords used by the Night Watch.
Their language is incomprehensible, and the sound they make is as harsh as ice breaking, but it may be a sentence with practical meaning, and the language they use may be ancient dialect.
The free people believe that the White Walkers and the corpses they create can smell the breath of life, or feel the warmth emanating from life.
Legend has it that White Walkers can suck human blood. During the ancient "Long Night", female savages outside the Wall would have an affair with White Walkers and produce horrific offspring that were half human and half ghost.
Ancient legends and stories do not provide many conclusive facts.
Some stories claim that the White Walkers come when the cold comes, while others say the cold comes because of them;
Some stories say that they avoid the sun and crave darkness, while other stories assert that they will bring night;
Sometimes they appear in mist or snowstorms, and melt away when the sky is clear.
There are also stories about them riding the dead bodies of animals, including bears, direwolves, mammoths, and horses. Some stories even mention "ice spiders" as big as hounds following the White Walkers.
Melisandre believes that the White Walkers are servants of ancient gods, and declares that they are an evil god who represents darkness, cold and death, and is R'hllor's eternal opponent.
In ancient documents, there are not many known weaknesses of the White Walkers.
One of them is obsidian, or dragon crystal, "frozen fire."
When Samwell Tarly happened to stab the White Walker with an obsidian dagger, the White Walker flowed out light blue blood, and its flesh and bones melted rapidly, leaving behind opalescent glass-like bones that shone palely, and finally all
Turned into a puddle of cold liquid.
This implies that they are sustained by magical powers.
The literature also records another weakness of the White Walkers, "dragon steel". The brothers of the Night's Watch speculate that it refers to Valyrian steel.
This is why Mance Rayder believes that some kind of magic left in the Great Wall prevents the White Walkers from crossing the Great Wall and entering the Seven Kingdoms.
Since the White Walkers are the product of magic, and the Great Wall can resist magic, then what are you afraid of?
"You also said that it was a legend. Whether the legend is credible or not has not been confirmed. What we have to do is to prepare for a rainy day!" Gao Bin explained.
After a pause, he added:
"You don't want the long night to fall again, do you?"
Thousands of years after the oath was made, a generation-long winter descended on the entire world.
The cold world is dark and dark. People grow up in the cold winter and die in the cold winter. They never see the coming of spring in their lives.
The king and the humblest servant in the castle were all spared and froze to death in the long winter.
Mothers kill their children in order to prevent them from suffering at birth. They cry loudly, but the tears freeze on their cheeks.
According to Rhoynar legend, the Rhoyne disappeared in the long night, and the entire stretch of the river from its source to the Sehoru was frozen.
The Yi people believe that the Long Night was caused by the Blood Stone Emperor's "Blood Betrayal". He killed his sister Queen Amethyst, usurped the throne of the Dawn Empire, and betrayed the True Gods Bright Maiden and Night Lion, worshiping one instead.
Black boulders fall from the sky, so the Night Lion lets the long night fall to punish humans.
A Yi Di legend is recorded in "A Summary of the Jade Sea". It is said that the sun hid itself because it was ashamed of something that no one knew about, and finally a woman with a monkey tail reversed the disaster.
In the darkness, strange ghosts came to the world.
They hate light and warmth. They come from the far north riding giant ice spiders and resurrected dead horses. They hold ice swords as thin as blades and slaughter all living creatures in front of them.
They resurrect the dead to fight for them. No army can resist them. The survival of mankind is at stake.
In order to save mankind, the last hero in the legend of the North set out with his companions to find the Children of the Forest, hoping to use their magic to fight against the White Walkers.
However, many years of searching were in vain, and one after another his partners died or abandoned him, and his weapons were reduced to pieces.
At this time, the White Walkers tracked down this desperate hero, and humanity's last hope seemed to be about to dissipate.
However, he eventually escaped the White Walkers who were chasing him, perhaps killing them with fragments of the dragonsteel sword.
Finally, the last hero found the Son of the Forest, and this was the turning point of everything.
With the help of the Children of the Forest, the earliest Night's Watch Legion was formed.
A great hero - recorded in the ancient books of Asshai as "Azor Ahai", which means holding the Lightbringer, leading mankind in a desperate battle against the White Walkers.
In the end, the White Walkers were repulsed and fled back to the land of eternal winter.
In the story of the Rhoynar, a hero convinces all the children of mother River Lorne, such as the Old Man of the River or the King of Crabs, to sing a secret song and bring light back to the world.
Brandon Stark, also known as Brandon the Builder, used ice, gravel and magic to build a hundred leagues-long wall from the Grand Canyon to the Shivering Sea to defend against the White Walkers.
Invasion again.
Brandon Stark becomes the first Winter King.
The construction of Winterfell (and probably Storm's End) and the establishment of the Night's Watch, which was responsible for guarding the Wall, also occurred during that period.
The Yi people believe that the world will see light again, but the legendary Empire of Dawn has been destroyed and the world has been damaged. Human beings from different tribes have gone their separate ways, and depravity such as war, murder and obscenity continues to remain in the world to this day. p>
For some bachelors in the city, the story of the Long Night is too absurd. Some people believe that the so-called White Walkers are a tribe of ancestors and the ancestors of today's wildlings.
When the long night fell, they were forced to move south, triggering a series of wars.
They believe that the brutal acts of these "White Walkers" are just fabricated by the Stark family and the Night's Watch. They just want to exaggerate their historical identity, claim to be the saviors of mankind, and cover up that they benefit from this turf war.<
/p>
In the legend of the Second Long Night, the Night King, the thirteenth commander-in-chief of the Night Watch, fell in love with a woman with "skin as pale as the moon, eyes like blue stars...skin as cold as ice" (the description is similar to that of the wights)
Very similar), and established himself as king.
Thirteen years after his reign, the King in the North joined forces with Joman, the King Beyond the Wall, to overthrow him.
It is said that the Night King once sacrificed to the White Walkers, so people erased all records about him and his name became taboo.
The ancient book of Asshai predicted that the White Walkers would reappear, and the followers of R'hllor told that the prophesied prince Azor Ahai would be reborn and lead an army to fight against them.
In short, no one wants to experience the horror of the long night. Even if they don't believe it, they don't dare to provoke it.
Gao Bin's words were like a thorn in Mance Rayder's heart. Whether he agreed or not was all in his mind.
However, Gao Bin is very confident. For Mance Rayder, he has only one choice, which is to cooperate!
Once he says no, there is only one end waiting for him - death!
If he could live, who would want to die? What’s more, he has children.
Sure enough, Mance Rayder agreed, but he also asked for a title.
Gao Bin named him the Free Earl on the spot, found a piece of land within the Great Wall as a fief, and built a Free Fort for free people to live in.
However, he also asked Mance Rayder to swear allegiance to the Duke of the North!
Mance has no objection to this!
...
After the Battle of Castle Black, Westeros entered a period of stable development. By virtue of his ability to resist the wildlings, Gao Bin officially appeared in front of the people of Westeros and officially ascended the throne with the support of the High Sparrow. p>
At the same time, his wedding to Little Rose Margery was also completed the next day.
In the second month after the wedding, Queen Margaery became pregnant and gave birth to twins in October.
At this point, Gao Bin's throne is completely stable.
However, what makes people support him the most is that he has implemented a new set of economic policies in Westeros, which is free trade.
Tariffs between various city-states were cancelled, national taxes were levied uniformly, and taxes were included in consumption.
The lords of various regions were naturally very dissatisfied, but after Gao Bin distributed the tax proportionally, their dissatisfaction disappeared.
Because in this way, they earn more than before, so what is there to complain about?
The most important thing is that they found that after this measure was implemented, the people became active. They no longer stayed in one area and were willing to go out.
What does this mean?
As long as people move, they will consume, and as long as they consume, they will pay taxes to the country. If they pay taxes, they will make money. How can they be unhappy?
At the same time, Gao Bin also implemented a new structure in the seven countries, established a national government, separated business affairs from government affairs, and coupled with the latest legislation and judicial institutions, the originally vague power structure became clear. p>
The common people are working hard, and when they encounter troubles, they are solved, it is not a prosperous scene.
King's Landing also more than tripled in size under the little devil's rule.
Not only in terms of area, but also in terms of population, it is the capital of the seven countries after all, and its economic development and public security level are the best among them!
The little devil also stepped up environmental management at Gao Bin's request, planted a large number of trees, and spent a lot of money on sanitation management. Public toilets can be found everywhere to prevent the streets from being littered with feces and urine.
Of course, what people are most concerned about is life, such as prices.
Prices in Junlin are controlled by Gao Bin to be in the middle and lower reaches of the country. Whether it is vegetables or meat, the quality is very high and can be described as high quality and low price.
At the same time, he also established a financial institution to popularize the concept of banks. In the third year after he ascended the throne, he issued the first version of banknotes, the Dragon Coin, which was directly linked to the Golden Dragon and implemented the gold standard system.
The denominations are 1 pound, 2 pounds, 5 pounds, 10 pounds, 20 pounds, 50 pounds, and 100 pounds.
Because it has just been released, it is still very valuable. The purchasing power of 1 pound is roughly equivalent to the living expenses of a family for a day!
Paper money has just been issued, but many people are still resisting it. They feel that it is not a real gold coin and they are not safe to use it.
But it didn’t take long for everyone to realize the convenience of banknotes due to the active promotion of businessmen.
And there is no trouble when using it, so everyone has become accustomed to carrying banknotes when traveling.
Gao Bin actually took this step for better capital operation, because he wanted to build roads, which cost a lot of money. If he only relied on gold coins to build roads, it would take him until the year of the monkey and the horse. Only by carrying out capital operations can he achieve the best results.
Build the road quickly.
To this end, he also established a number of companies controlled by the royal family, so that the money would not go to outsiders. It would be better to make some money himself.
It can be seen from this that he has not completely gotten rid of the thinking of a businessman. He always considers interests first in everything. When his thinking changes, he will be able to become a better monarch.
Of course, it's too late to say this now.
No matter what, Westeros is getting better and better under his governance. If a survey is done, the people's support rate for him must be the highest in history, at least 80% or above.
The first King's Road starting from King's Landing and running from north to south was also completed two years later.
Next is the Queen's Road that runs from east to west. With the birth of these two main roads, the connection between the seven countries will become even closer.
During this period, he also did a major thing, which was to use the name of exercises to gather the armies of various lords and conduct exercises once a year, once every six months. Counting the time spent on the road, Gao Bin was there most of the time.
You can firmly control the army in your own hands.
I dare not say that there are more, but he can now gather a large army with a total number of nearly 200,000 at any time.
These include 20,000 heavy cavalry, 10,000 light cavalry, and 30,000 naval soldiers.
The navy that Gao Bin focused on building now has 50 warships, but this is not enough.
The navy is prepared for the decisive battle with the eastern continent in the future.
He has always been wary of Dragon Mother. Although he doesn't know what this woman is thinking and has not yet fought her back to Westeros, Gao Bin knows that this woman will definitely not give up.
The quieter she is now, the more prepared she is!
What Gao Bin is most afraid of is not the dragon, but the Dothraki. The fighting power of these nomadic people is amazing. If they face each other head-on, both sides may lose. This is not what Gao Bin wants.
The Dothraki live in a tribe called "Khalasar", which is led by the bravest warrior-"Kaa".
Each "Karasa" will be divided into several parts, called "Kas", each led by a "Kou".
When a khal dies, a new khal will take power;
Or Khas disperses and re-forms into a khalasar, and the former Kou becomes the new Khal.
The Dothraki are all equestrian experts, and horses occupy a primary position in their lives. They are food, transportation, raw materials for handicrafts, and weapons of war.
Each Khal has his own bloodrider.
They are not only guards, but also brothers and partners. During the affairs of Kaa during the day, the bloodriders have always been by his side.
Ancient tradition dictated that they follow Khal when he died.
If the khal dies in battle, the bloodriders will spend the rest of their lives doing everything they can to seek revenge, and then commit suicide after taking revenge.
Some of Khal's bloodriders even share his wife.
The only thing Khal and the bloodriders never share is their own mounts.
Khal and the bloodriders often call each other "blood of my blood".
There are no settlements in Khalasar, and their economy is largely supported by raiding surrounding countries. In order to survive, they will also attack each other.
On special occasions, the Dothraki will set up huge straw tents, but usually, they live in portable tents to facilitate migration at any time.
The Dothraki have only one fixed city, Vaes Dothraki, which is also their capital.
The khalasar always fights in the grasslands, but in Vaes Dothraki, each Dothraki must treat the other as a biological brother.
No one should shed a drop of blood, let alone draw a sword.
After the death of Khal, their wives Khaleesi lived here.
They are called "Doshkarim" and rule the city above all Khals.
One of the core beliefs of the Dothraki is that the most important moments in a person's life must occur under the sky.
The Dothraki believed that the stars were herds of flaming horses galloping across the night sky.
But there is also a saying that they believe that the stars are the souls of warriors after their death.
The Dothraki called the sea "poisonous water" and they distrusted any liquid that a horse could not drink.
They have many superstitions, such as touching a body they did not kill is a sign of bad luck, and they curse witches, or "witches" as being evil and unnatural to humans.
It is worth mentioning that Dothraki weddings usually start at dawn and end at dusk.
The day was filled with endless feasts and battles.
Women wearing crimson, yellow and orange veils danced to the beat of drums at the wedding banquet, while warriors feasted on them freely under the watchful eyes of the entire khalasar.
If two men fall in love with the same woman, they will fight to the death.
A Dothraki wedding without more than three people dying is a failure.
The bride receives three traditional gifts: a whip, a longbow and an arakh.
She wants to use traditional rhetoric to refuse, but her husband will accept it.
When the wedding gifts are given out and the sun sets, the wedding will be considered a successful conclusion.
There is no privacy in Khalasar, and their concepts of sin and shame are completely different from those of the Free Trade Cities and the Seven Kingdoms. The process of the bridal chamber is like that of animals, and everything returns to the original.
In Dothraki, only eunuchs, the disabled, the elderly, women and children ride in carriages.
Except for these people, anyone riding in a carriage will be laughed at.
There are two kinds of doctors in Khalasar. The herbal women heal wounds with potions and charms, while the eunuchs use sharp knives, needles and threads and fire.
For babies born with deformities, the Dothraki would throw them to wild dogs.
In the Free Trade City, the Dothraki will also wear gorgeous clothes and spray perfume, but in their own tribe, both men and women wear bare chests, painted leather vests, horsehair leggings, and bronze sashes around their waists.<
/p>
They believed that wearing armor was an act of cowardice, and Dothraki women sometimes wore painted robes.
Men wear their hair in braids and only cut it off when they are defeated in battle.
They tied bells on their braids to commemorate the victory.
Most of these bells are obtained from the heads of slain enemies. The braids and bells are symbols of a warrior's bravery.
The Dothraki are not into building.
A thousand years ago, they would dig holes in the ground and cover them with grass as roofs.
The Dothraki eat horse meat and drink fermented mare's milk.
They also eat black sausage, blood pie and beet soup.
These people are natural cavalry, and their riding skills are better than any knights.
Light cavalry is their main force.
The warriors used scimitars called arakhs, longbows and whips.
They believe that wearing armor is a cowardly act, and usually wear painted leather vests and horsehair leggings.
When the khalasar moves, there must be scouts patrolling in front of the main team, responsible for paying attention to various prey and enemy traces, while the pioneer troops guard the two wings.
After the battle, there will be "Jakalan" holding a giant ax and harvesting countless heads from the dead and dying people. The little girl will pull arrows from the corpses and put them into the basket for use again. p>
To sum it up in one sentence - barbaric!
However, only barbarian tribes can produce the most powerful warriors, so Gao Bin had to guard against them.
Since your warriors have strong personal combat effectiveness, use technology to defeat you!
Gao Bin promotes unified education in seven countries, from primary school to middle school to university, and cultivates different types of talents at designated locations.
He also established the Royal Academy of Sciences in the capital, King's Landing, and gave scientists the most favorable treatment so that their clever minds could be used for his own benefit.
Facts have proved his foresight. At his request, the Academy of Sciences has created no less than 20 kinds of weapons that can play a role on the battlefield, and the first batch of experimental subjects are likely to be Dothraki.
If you want to defeat the Dothraki cavalry, you must first destroy their horses.
The Dothraki on horseback and the Dothraki standing on the ground have very different fighting capabilities!

At this time, Dragon Mother is in Pentos, which is one of the nine free trade city-states. It is located in the west of the Essos continent, on the edge of the Narrow Sea, far away from the Seven Kingdoms, and is the free trade city-state closest to King's Landing.
.
Pentos borders a bay on the Narrow Sea.
To the east of the city is a vast wilderness called "The Flats". Continue eastward along the road built by the Valyrians, and you will cross the tributaries of the upper reaches of the Rhoyne River, pass through the Velvet Hills and enter the Andas Mountains, arriving at Gol Dohor.
.
The avenue continues to extend, connecting Ge Doho with the other two Free Trade Cities, Norvos and Qohor.
Pentos was originally a trading outpost established by the Valyrian people, but soon annexed the surrounding hinterland, from the Velvet Hills and the Little Rhoyne to the sea, including almost the entire ancient kingdom of Andas.
The original Pentos were merchants, traders, sailors and farmers, and only a few were of high birth.
Perhaps for this reason, they are less protective of their Valyrian ancestry and are willing to intermarry with the natives of the areas they rule.
The result is that many Pentos people have Andal ancestry, and they may be the closest cousins to the people of Westeros.
Slavery was widely practiced in Pentos for much of its history, but this resulted in the war between her and Braavos.
Since about two hundred years, the two cities have fought at least six wars, and the reasons for the wars, in addition to slavery, include control of the fertile lands and waters between the two cities.
Braavos won four times, the last of which occurred more than 90 years ago. Pentos sacrificed four princes in one year, until after a rare victory, the fifth prince persuaded the governors to sue for peace. In the peace agreement, Pentos had to make concessions, abolish slavery, and outlaw the slave trade.
