#411 - Chapter 145: Continental Recruitment Order
Jhinara straightened her body and replied in a firm tone, "Twenty Red Priests, three hundred of the Temple's most elite Holy Flame Hands, they are all the most devout believers of the Lord, willing to dedicate their lives to Your Majesty." Her gaze fell on Liu Yuan, revealing deep doubt and incomprehension: "Lord Galon, it's strange, I can't see your past, let alone your future. Why is this?"
Liu Yuan smiled slightly and waved his hand casually, "I don't believe in any gods, so naturally you can't see my destiny. So, you must be Melisandre? I've heard of your name, you are Stannis's loyal follower, why would you come here?" His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, as if to penetrate the depths of her heart.
Melisandre: "I once served Stannis Baratheon, but he has died beyond the Wall, and the evil forces are on the verge of the Wall. I came this time to persuade Her Majesty the Queen to join the war."
Liu Yuan frowned and said, "Stannis is dead, it's a pity. Who can tell me what happened?"
Rickon sighed, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, and said: "Godfather, let me tell you! After Robb and I eliminated the Bolton family, we led our troops to the Wall..." He described in detail everything that happened after the Northern Army arrived at the Wall, including the pre-war division agreement with the wildlings.
Also, after the battle, the Others made many reactions, using tricks to design a joint navy and occupy hundreds of ships. They used unimaginable ways to cross the snow-capped cliffs that humans could not reach, carrying out a large-scale encirclement. All of this proved that the Others were a highly intelligent race. The most terrifying thing was the endless army of undead wights who were fearless of death. Moreover, they could use the corpses of humans who died in battle to continuously replenish and expand the army of the dead.
Are the Others really that powerful? Liu Yuan couldn't help but sink into deep thought. At this moment, Daenerys gently took his hand and led him to the main seat. After the two sat down together, Daenerys held Liu Yuan's hand tightly and looked at him with firm eyes.
After a brief silence, Liu Yuan opened his mouth and said, "The current situation is indeed very serious, we must face reality. Since all the wildlings beyond the Wall have been gathered, then we must not sit idly by and watch the Others threaten the North. Every battle will consume our strength, which is undoubtedly a huge loss for us. Dany, what are your thoughts or suggestions on the current situation?"
Daenerys frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then she slowly said: "My people have experienced too many wars and sufferings, I really can't bear to see them hurt again. If the Others threaten the safety of the entire Westeros, I am willing to ride the dragon and lead the army to fight them."
"Very good." Liu Yuan nodded, expressing his approval, "I have a suggestion, send ravens to the lords of the Seven Kingdoms, publicizing the threat of the Others. At the same time, let them send troops to support the Wall, and we can use ships for transportation."
After hearing this, Daenerys frowned and asked: "What is the meaning of this? Many great lords do not recognize my rule now, and even if there are lords willing to join the war, they will be stopped by their liege."
Liu Yuan smiled slightly and said with confidence: "I have already thought of a way to deal with the Night King, but it takes time and power. The troops supported by these lords are not necessary for us, but their attitude is very important. This is also the attitude we should take towards them in the future during the unification war."
After hearing this, Daenerys suddenly realized and smiled: "I understand, Prime Minister Tyrion, you heard what Lord Galon said, right?"
Tyrion quickly responded: "Yes, Your Majesty the Queen. I will arrange for people to do it right away, but the number of ravens we have on Dragonstone is limited, and we may not be able to deliver the message to all the lords in time."
Liu Yuan looked at Tyrion and said: "I will order all the ravens in the Thornling and Sethigarling towns to act together, so that we can ensure that the information can reach every place, completely covering the entire Westeros."
Tyrion nodded, expressing his agreement: "Then I have no problem, Her Majesty's will will be carried out."
In the days that followed, countless ravens flew out of King's Landing, their destination being every corner of Westeros. Basically, as long as there was a lord served by a scholar, they received the Dragon Queen's summons.
This news shocked the entire continent of Westeros. The ancient evil god has been resurrected, and the Others are leading an army of undead resurrected from the dead, their goal is to destroy all human civilization on the continent of Westeros. Stannis, the former king, has died beyond the Wall, and he used his life to uphold his oath as a nobleman to protect the people.
Dragon Queen Daenerys Targaryen, with her fearless courage and determination, calls on all nobles to follow the ancient oath and fight for the survival of mankind! She firmly believes that only by uniting can we overcome this terrible threat.
The legend of the Others has passed for thousands of years. Although some people still mention it now, not many people on the continent really believe in their existence. After all, no one has ever seen what a real Other looks like. So when they received the letter from the North, many lords thought it was just a joke. But few of the lords who have really made it to this day are fools. They also saw the implied content of this letter.
However, faced with this situation, the lords had different ideas. Some people thought it was just a farce and not worth wasting time; while others thought it might be an opportunity to expand their sphere of influence. So, depending on their respective positions, the lords had to make different choices.
For those landless knights or small lords, this was undoubtedly a rare opportunity. They put on their armor and attendants, and responded to the call to go north, hoping to gain more land and wealth in this war. Even some great nobles sent their second sons or bastards to show their importance to this matter.
Of course, for some lords who were far away, they could choose to travel to the North by boat. The summons clearly stated that the cost of the boat would be borne by the Dawn Company. In addition, the Oldtown Bank and the Iron Bank also expressed their willingness to endorse it and pay part of the funding in advance. In this way, even the poorest knights could participate in this war.
In fact, these lords are not stupid, they are very clear about the situation they are facing. Nowadays, the territories in various places that should be enfeoffed have already been enfeoffed. If they still want to have further development, then it can only be a major event such as a change of dynasty.
