The journey of the film and television world is endless [continued]

However, Melisandre did not give way. She blocked Jon's way, looked at him sharply, and said softly: "Lord Jon, I sense something different about you. You seem to have resistance to me. May I talk to you in private?" There was an unquestionable majesty in her voice.

Jon: "I'm sorry, I have my beliefs. I think you should go talk to His Majesty!" Seeing Melisandre approaching step by step, he stepped back step by step. Just as he was about to sidestep around Melisandre, she grabbed his hand and stuffed it into her chest.

Jon only felt the scorching heat coming from his fingertips, and a strange feeling surged into his heart, making him feel uncontrollably moved. However, this feeling only lasted for a moment, and he struggled to break free as if frightened.

Melisandre chuckled: "Haha, you may not know what you have missed? But I believe you will come to me again." After that, she turned and left, leaving Jon standing there alone, feeling upset.

It was unknown how long it took Jon to come back to his senses. He took a deep breath and tried to calm his inner restlessness. Then, he slowly walked towards the cell where Mance Rayder was imprisoned.

Mance Rayder looked at Jon through the iron bars, with a flash of surprise in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. He seemed to see through Jon's mind at a glance, and sneered: "The King of the South sent you! Go back, young Crow Chief, you should know that the free people will never surrender."

Jon shook his head slowly, his eyes revealing a hint of helplessness and regret. He stared at Mance Rayder and said in a low but firm voice: "Stannis has lost his patience. If you don't choose to surrender, then the only way waiting for you is death. You must know that you have no chance of breaking through this indestructible wall. The life and death of hundreds of thousands of people depends on your decision at this moment."

Mance Rayder straightened up and responded with a firm gaze: "You don't understand. The free people may choose to surrender, but the King-beyond-the-Wall will never surrender." There was a determination and pride in his voice, as if declaring his position to the world.

Jon turned around and left the cell silently, his heart full of entanglement and contradiction. He knew that Mance Rayder's fate was already determined, and he was powerless to change it. At this critical moment, he really didn't want to see humans continue to kill each other and waste their energy.

Just as Jon was lost in thought, a black raven flew quietly over his head like a ghost, bringing news from south of the Wall. Jon's little servant Ollie came running all the way, panting to Jon, and respectfully handed over the note: "Lord Commander, the raven brought news, Maester Aemon asked me to give it to you."

Jon quickly took the note, unfolded it, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He stared at the words on the note, as if he could see more profound meaning from it. This letter was sent from Horwood City. The territory of the Horwood family is vast and rich, including a vast forest and three strong fortresses besides Horwood City. Their sphere of influence extends westward to the White Knife River, bordering the territories of the Manderly family and the Bolton family, forming a natural line of defense.

However, since the Frey family migrated and built their own fortress at the mouth of the River of Tears, the conflict between them and the Hornwood family has become increasingly acute. The territorial disputes between the two sides have been escalating, especially when Robb ordered the blockade of Bolton County, and conflicts often broke out between the two sides.

This time, Robb was determined to completely solve the Bolton family's trouble. The vassals of the North gathered again and put together a powerful army of 15,000 people. These soldiers were professional warriors who had experienced many battles. They had experienced countless battles and possessed tenacious fighting spirit and superb fighting skills. Compared with those temporary peasant soldiers, they were undoubtedly a force that could not be ignored.

This army will become the sharpest sword in Robb's hand, piercing directly into the heart of the Bolton family! At this moment, the battle line of the Northern Army has successfully advanced to the walls of the Dreadfort. Facing the aggressive Northern Army, Roose Bolton actually chose to voluntarily abandon the castle controlled by the Frey family and withdraw all his troops, trying to protect himself by holding on to the Dreadfort.

At the same time, Skagos Island also sent out its own army. Robb had already granted Skagos Island to Liu Yuan, and on a legal level, Liu Yuan naturally had to respond to Robb's call for conscription. So, as the commander of this army, Grig led more than 1,500 soldiers to participate in this battle. It is worth mentioning that these soldiers also include many professional siege troops, who are very good at making and operating various siege equipment. Afterwards, they took a longboat upstream along the River of Tears and successfully joined the siege of the Dreadfort.

Jon quietly put away the letter. The content of the letter was not much, but it briefly introduced the current situation of the war. Since becoming the commander-in-chief, Jon has gradually grown up. He began to see some deeper meanings behind these simple messages. Things are definitely not as simple as they seem on the surface...

Stannis actually abandoned Dragonstone, an important strategic location, and led all his troops out of the nest and suddenly appeared in the northern region. Although Stannis claimed that the purpose of doing so was to resist the wildlings outside the wall and the terrible white walkers.

But for Robb, the Prince of the North, they are definitely a huge threat. Therefore, Robb also needs to gather all his troops as soon as possible and prepare corresponding countermeasures. The Bolton family is the only extremely unstable factor in the current situation and must be completely eliminated.

"Alas, how long will it take for humans to truly unite?" Jon couldn't help but let out a long sigh. He stood in front of the window and witnessed Stannis and his group slowly walking out of the long hall. From the expressions on their faces, it seemed that they had reached a result that was satisfactory to both sides.

After careful consideration, Jon finally decided to find Samwell to hear his opinions and suggestions on the matter.
