I have a Mount and Blade panel and I kill people in the Game of Thrones

Finding a way out of war is a choice that every nation will make, and free people are no exception.

Many people made their own choice: stay in the north and freeze or starve to death, or follow a king from the south to fight.

Stannis is gone, his next destination being the Nightfort.

After all, it will take time for the army to march south. After recruiting a lot of free militia from Lyon, Stannis urgently needs to transform these free people into qualified fighting forces.

"My Lord Commander, Stannis has recruited approximately five hundred Thenn berserkers and a thousand Free Folk hunters, led by a dozen Free Folk chieftains, led by Olaf."

Before following Stannis south, Jon first came to Lyon to report.

"Tell Olaf that if the situation is not right, I will allow him to lead his men to retreat on his own. We don't need to pay a large number of casualties for Stannis's ambition. I still have great use for these freemen warriors."

"Yes, Lord Commander-in-Chief."

"You have to remember that our Night's Watch remains neutral in the Kingdom's war. I don't want you to destroy it."

Before leaving, Benjen Stark gave his nephew a hug and whispered in his ear:

"This is not a war for us Night's Watch. Swords have no eyes. You better be careful."

"Okay, uncle."

With that, Jon mounted his warhorse, surrounded by five experienced old rangers.

Once they recruit enough people, the six Night's Watchmen will immediately lead their men back to Eastwatch.

"Sir, how do you plan to resettle the remaining freemen? We can't feed so many people for nothing, right?"

After Jon and the other rangers left, Grand Maester Aemon also returned. The first thing he did when he returned was to ask Lyon for ways to resettle the free people.

Speaking of this, Leon also felt a headache.

If I hadn't allocated the supplies reasonably in the past two days, I don't know how many free people would have starved to death due to lack of food.

Now that the long night has arrived, most of the land is frozen solid and is no longer suitable for planting, except for a few cold-resistant crops such as potatoes that can still grow tenaciously.

Even the crops that could be harvested saw a massive reduction in yield.

It is currently impossible to feed these 100,000 people through self-sufficiency.

"It's across the Summer Sea. It's still summer, and the fleet Stannis left behind hasn't been taken away yet. We can take a boat across to buy food."

The solution given by Lyon is simple and direct.

"But this will be a huge expense. With the financial reserves of our Night's Watch, I'm afraid we are unable to afford it."

Grand Maester Aemon had an account in his mind, but no matter how he calculated it, it could not satisfy a hundred thousand hungry mouths.

Thinking of this, Grand Maester Aemon discovered that his commander-in-chief was not sad at all when he heard the news. Instead, he showed a mysterious smile.

"Send a raven to Tywin Lannister and Roose Bolton and ask them if they are willing to support us with a sum of gold dragons or food to feed these 100,000 wildlings. After all, we are the ones who blocked the wildlings and the White Walkers for them."

"What if they don't want to? I think the south is too far away from here. Even if we let the savages go south at this season, they won't be able to go far."

“All I need is an attitude.”

Grand Maester Aemon was clearly not satisfied with Lyon's answer.

He looked at Ser Davos, the Hand of the King of Dragonstone, who was left behind. He was responsible for providing food and fodder for Stannis's southern expedition.

That's why I stayed in Donghaiwang.

Seeing that Grand Maester Aemon and Lyon's eyes fell on him at the same time, he knew that he had to come up with an idea now, not only for the Night's Watch, but also for his lord to have no worries.

At this moment, he had a plan in mind, so he said:

"Before the funds from the southern lords are in place, we can go to the Iron Bank to borrow money to buy food. This bill can be counted on His Majesty Stannis, but the Night's Watch will also have to bear part of the cost."

"If the Iron Bank is willing to help, it won't be difficult to support 100,000 free people, but what can we use as collateral?"

Grand Maester Aemon muttered to himself that he couldn't think of any reason for the people of Essos to pay, but just because he couldn't think of an idea didn't mean Lyon didn't have one.

"We are running low on food reserves. We should set out as soon as possible. That's it."

Finally, Lyon made the final decision and set the departure schedule.

Speaking of which, there has been no news of assassinations by the Faceless Men since they parted at Castle Castle, and Leon also wanted to ask the elders of the House of Black and White whether they had forgotten about this test.

Before leaving, Lyon only took some of the Night's Watch, Davos, and a White Walker - Big Yellow.

Rhubarb is used as a warning. Anyone who sees a living White Walker will be frightened.

And Davos's ability to talk big is believed to be able to conquer the head of the Iron Bank once again.

After a week of drifting on the sea with Lyon and others, Stannis' fleet finally saw a magnificent giant statue, which marked that they had finally arrived at their destination - Braavos.

The city is actually made up of hundreds of islands scattered throughout a hidden bay.

The mainland area near Braavos is covered with dense swamps, while the offshore area is surrounded by towering islands like mountain peaks, leaving only a wide natural strait that is large enough for ocean-going merchant ships to enter and exit freely.

At this exit stands a statue known as the Titan of Braavos, which is not only a conspicuous landmark and guiding beacon, but also an impregnable defensive fortress.

Adjacent to the Titan is the Battle Fortress and a massive dockyard known as the Arsenal.

Within this fortified enclosure lies a magnificent stone city of grey, gold and red arches, towers and domes.

Having been accustomed to the desolate and dilapidated Eastwatch and the unchanging scenery of the North, many of the Night's Watchmen on the ship were attracted by the beautiful scenery of Braavos and could not take their eyes away.

Davos, as an experienced smuggler, would naturally not let the city scenery in front of him completely attract his attention.

He explained to Lyon and the other night watchmen like a tour guide:

"There are many moneylenders in Braavos, and their Iron Bank provides loans to other countries in the world, including the Seven Kingdoms."

"By the way, those brightly colored boats you saw belong to the world-famous Braavos courtesans."

"Each courtesan had her own boat and servants, her beauty was sung by singers, goldsmiths and jewelers vied to make objects for her, craftsmen begged for her patronage, trade magnates paid royal ransoms for their arms at balls, banquets and theatrical performances, assassins fought each other in their names."

Following Davos' introduction, Lyon and other night watchmen saw many women on the flower boats waving to the big ship the night watchmen were on.

The clothing and appearance of these women are completely different from those of the heavily made-up and vulgar women in Mole Village.

One of the night watchmen could no longer hold back and immediately asked loudly for the price. However, after receiving the woman's answer that was enough to scare him to death, he immediately became depressed.
