Game of Thrones' opening sold the gods

Chapter 125 124. Regular Army Fighting Primitive Tribes
Seeing the silent Ygritte come back, Daniel knew the result.

"Your Majesty is right, if you hurt them, they will believe you."

"Order the whole army to prepare for the attack."

Then the whole army began to move, like a sophisticated machine, advancing towards the wildling camp.

When Mance saw that the opposing army was moving, he immediately put the archers into readiness. The wildlings usually made a living by hunting, and most people could become archers by picking up a bow and arrow, unlike the southern nobles who needed to train for several years.

The range of bows and arrows is generally proportional to the strength of soldiers. The throwing range of barbarian archers is about 150 meters, while the average range of soldiers from the Seven Kingdoms is between 100 meters and 120 meters.

So Mance intends to take advantage of this and use bows and arrows to consume first. He can have an extra range of nearly 50 meters on his side, and there don't seem to be many cavalry on the other side.

However, the development of things always exceeded Mance's every step of the plan. The soldiers in the river land did not choose to let the cavalry advance. Instead, the two hundred cavalry had been on the flank of the large army.

When the distance between the two sides was only 300 meters, the archers of the Hejian army took the lead. They used the compound bows manufactured by the Hejian Institute.

In addition, the soldiers in the Riverlands eat well and supplemented with more scientific physical training, so they are all physically strong, and with the compound bow, their throwing distance is 300 meters, and they can still guarantee effective killing within 350 meters.

The rain of arrows fired by the four hundred archers instantly caught the wildlings by surprise, and even Mance was almost hit by an arrow.

If Mance hadn't paid attention to Ygritte's last advice and asked several people to protect themselves with full armor and iron shields, the wave just now might have taken him away.

Although he couldn't figure out why the army on the opposite side could shoot so far, the most important thing now was to fight back from close quarters!

"Charge! Get close to them!" Mance roared, and the wildlings rushed towards the riverland army, as if this would make them ignore the rain of arrows.

For the savages without armor and army formation, charging under the rain of arrows was no doubt about the same as sending them to death. Within a short distance of 300 meters, they were shot seven times by the Hejian army.

They can take away about two hundred wildlings every time, but after they face each other, they realize that the spear array in the riverland is hell at all.

Not to mention breaking through the sword and shield hands at the front, their weapons can only leave white marks on the armor of the Hejian soldiers.

The armor of the river land was almost armed to the teeth. Facing such an army, the wildlings were beaten and retreated steadily. More than ten wildlings could not replace a soldier of the river land.

Up to now, the savages have lost more than 2000 people, but they haven't even torn a small hole in the Hejian army formation.

At this time, the iron cavalry on the flanks began to exert their strength, and two hundred iron cavalry rushed into the scattered and dense formation of the wildlings and began to slaughter.

Facing the charging iron cavalry, the savages couldn't even fight back. Facing the charge of the cavalry, even the infantry forming an army formation could hardly parry, let alone the savages in a scattered and dense formation.

The savage soon couldn't stand it anymore, Mance blew the retreat horn with a heavy face, he didn't expect that the army on the opposite side was so strong, and their 2 people couldn't beat the [-] on the other side.

When the savages heard the retreat horn, they immediately turned and ran away. They just wanted to stay away from this group of damned iron barrels now.

The free people who retreated to the camp looked ugly, let alone eating the army on the opposite side, it would be nice if they could not be eaten by these 2000 people.

Daniel saw that the savages had retreated and did not continue to pursue them. Instead, he immediately began to treat the wounded. Because of the protection of the armor, there were no dead people, but many were injured.

Fortunately, there is a high concentration of alcohol and various medical supplies, otherwise someone in Hejian would definitely die from wound inflammation.

In ancient times, many soldiers did not die directly on the battlefield, but died of wound inflammation.

Daniel's face was strange. He didn't expect that the other side would fight in such an unorganized and undisciplined manner. He didn't even have a single person killed in battle. He didn't realize that he commanded the army to charge in the same way at the beginning.

Daniel found Ygritte and told her that she would give Mance one more chance to meet her in person.

Ygritte understands that this is Daniel's last chance for the wildlings. If Mance doesn't make good use of it, the only thing facing the wildlings is ruthless slaughter, and then burn them all.

So Ygritte approached Mance again, and this time Mance was obviously not as rebellious as before.

"I said a long time ago that the free folk can't win." Ygritte said sullenly, and she had to be beaten severely to be obedient.

Mance was silent for a long time before asking softly, "Is there really [-] troops like this?"

"We can't even deal with the weakest 10 of the 2000 people. You tried just now, Chief Mance." Ygritte's words hurt one's self-esteem, but they were all true.

They just can't even deal with these 2000 people!

"General Daniel invites you to meet him. This is our last chance. Your Majesty will give us land and aid, and he will!" Ygritte said firmly.

The wildling leaders were moved. Now they can't even defeat these 2000 people. If what Ygritte said is true, it is indeed a sure-fire deal.

Mance also recognized the gap between the two sides. Ygritte hadn't told him that Theon faced two White Walkers, beat one away and captured the other alive, and Mance would not believe it.

"Please take me to meet him, that general." Mance offered to meet Daniel.

In the original play, after defeating the wildlings, Stannis asked Mance to kneel and surrender, but Mance refused and was finally burned to death by Stannis.

After Mance was burned to death, Stannis promised that as long as the wildlings followed him to attack the north, he would promise the wildlings land, which made [-]% of the wildlings willing to follow Stannis southward.

Now Mance is also facing a similar situation, except that the army in the riverland is far stronger than Stannis' army in the original play.

Under the leadership of Ygritte, Mance soon saw Daniel in the military tent. At this moment, Daniel was looking at the map outside the Great Wall.

"I'm Mance, the leader of the free folk. Hello, General Daniel."

Upon hearing this, Daniel looked up at Mance, then motioned for Mance to sit down, and sat opposite him.

"Mance, I'm Daniel, the major general of the future empire." Daniel is very proud of his identity, especially when facing a wild man outside the Great Wall.

"To be honest, I don't understand His Majesty's kindness. I will definitely kill you all and burn them all. This will save trouble and don't have to worry about you turning into ghouls."

Daniel said unceremoniously, but the sharp words did not cause any facial changes in Mance.

Instead, Mance said calmly: "But you still want me to come to see you, thank you Your Majesty for your kindness to us, can you talk about the conditions in detail?"

Daniel stared at Mance for a while, then snorted coldly, and got up to get a document.

"First, obey the law and submit to Your Majesty."

"Second, you will be placed in Houguan Town. His Majesty will give you seeds and livestock cubs, and send someone to teach you how to farm and raise livestock."

"Third, you will be the mayor of the town. Take good care of your subordinates. Once you find that you have robbed the surrounding northern villagers, you will be executed immediately."
