Chapter 129: The King's Death (7)
In less than two hours, the second line of defense was breached. Faced with such a grim situation, Stannis had to order a retreat. In order to buy more time, he decided to set fire to the forest behind. The raging fire spread quickly, forming a huge wall of fire.
However, this time the White Walkers behaved extremely fiercely. Instead of retreating, they drove their huge army of wights to continue chasing humans. The fire in the forest became bigger and bigger, one piece after another, and the flames shot up into the sky. However, since many White Walkers participated in the command, their ice magic could suppress the flames, making the wights no longer afraid of the flames and pouring into the forest continuously.
During the escape, many human warriors were killed because they were caught up by the wights. At the critical moment, Jon stepped forward and led the soldiers to engage in a fierce close combat with the White Walkers. Some members of the Night's Watch came from the Living Army, and they have unique skills and experience in dealing with the White Walkers. As long as the White Walker in charge is killed, the wights under his command will lose control and collapse into corpses all over the ground.
The bloody battle in the forest lasted for several hours, and both sides suffered heavy losses. More than fifty White Walkers were killed by humans, and humans left thousands of corpses in the forest. In the end, relying on the terrain and the burning forest, the human warriors stabilized their position in the third line of defense. Jon and Tormund gathered the retreating warriors and organized them to defend on the spot.
But Jon found that Stannis was nowhere to be seen, and even Davos was nowhere to be seen. He had a bad feeling in his heart. At this time, the fire in the forest gradually weakened, but the enemy's attack became more and more fierce. Jon knew that this last line of defense could not be held for too long.
He immediately gave the order: "Hurry up and recover your strength. This forest can't stop them for long. We are the last line of defense. Fight hard! For the women and children behind us!"
Jon's voice was full of determination and resoluteness, making everyone present feel his resolve. The soldiers nodded one after another, expressing their willingness to follow him and fight to the end.
Inspired by Jon, the soldiers' morale was boosted and they fought bravely. They used their lives to protect the women and children behind them and fought for their homes and loved ones. Although the enemy was numerous, they were not afraid and resisted the enemy's attack with tenacious will and unyielding spirit.
The sea was pitch black at night, with only a faint fire flickering in the distance. The ships of the Skaggs fleet raised their sails and headed towards the fire at the fastest speed. However, sailing in the dark was not easy. The raging cold wind howled, bringing icy fog, which seriously affected the vision. The surging waves brought great challenges to the sailing.
"Pay attention to the formation! All ships maintain maneuvering speed! This fog may be the magic of the White Walkers. If you find any abnormality, sound the alarm immediately!" Al Krowl ordered loudly, his voice echoing in the cold night wind. He led the fleet forward without flinching, firmly and decisively. The flames that shot up into the sky became a beacon for their progress, guiding them through the darkness.
Finally, the fleet approached the area where the fire was, and the scene in front of them shocked them. The coast was in chaos, and the trees in the forest were burning fiercely, but due to the low temperature for many years, the trees did not burn completely, resulting in smoke but not a strong fire. Through the gaps in the woods, a large number of zombies could be seen wandering around, as if they were looking for something.
Al Klauer and Rickon looked at each other and realized that the situation was out of control. The defenders on the front line were in a bad situation and they had to act quickly.
Al Krall calmly gave the order: "Teams 1 and 2 will attack in turn, and Team 3 will move forward and be on guard. Use high-explosive incendiary bombs, target the back of the forest, and fire at intervals of four!"
As the order was given, the cannons spewed out flames, and the shells with long tails of flames streaked across the night sky and fell into the forest like meteors. The violent explosions resounded through the sky, deafening, as if they were going to tear the entire earth apart. The shock wave and raging flames generated by the explosions instantly swept everything around, turning the forest into a sea of fire.
The ghouls struggled in agony in the sea of fire, their bodies engulfed by flames, and they screamed miserably. The fire spread rapidly, forming an insurmountable wall of fire that stopped the ghouls from advancing.
On the other side, Jon was extremely anxious, and he commanded his soldiers to fight desperately against the crazy attack of the wights. A steady stream of wights poured out of the forest, and soldiers who had withdrawn from the forest continued to join the battle, but their number was getting smaller and smaller.
However, Jon is troubled by the fact that Stannis has not yet returned. As time passes, Jon becomes more anxious.
Just when Jon was extremely anxious, there was a sudden earth-shattering sound in the distance, "boom~rumble!" The sound of explosions came from afar, and the roar of waves sounded from the sea. He immediately realized that it was his fleet that arrived.
Jon shouted excitedly: "Brothers, our reinforcements have arrived! Everyone hold your positions!" His voice spread across the battlefield, and the human warriors were immediately refreshed. Their exhausted bodies were filled with strength again, and their morale was greatly boosted. They even launched a counterattack and drove the wights back into the forest.
In the light of the fire, Jon's eyes were determined. He knew that the battle was far from over, but at this moment, the dawn of hope had arrived.
The effect of the fleet's bombardment was still very significant. The originally scattered flames in the forest were connected together to form a huge wall of fire, which completely blocked the endless stream of wights. Some unlucky White Walkers were even directly hit by the shells, and a large number of wights were scattered.
Some people who were originally surrounded by wights in the forest took this opportunity to escape. Jon organized soldiers to rush forward to rescue them in time and successfully rescued many people.
Among them was a group of people whose bodies were blackened by smoke. They were guarding the stretcher in the middle tightly, and the leader was Davos who had disappeared for a long time.
Jon's pupils shrank, and he hurried forward and asked, "This is... Your Majesty Stannis, why is he like this?"
Davos said with a face full of grief and indignation: "The road we were taking was blocked, and we were unable to evacuate in time. We were surrounded by the White Walkers who followed closely. However, the number of White Walkers was too large. Your Majesty... he was ambushed by the White Walkers during the battle... I failed to protect him."
