Heaven's Change of Fate

Chapter 258
The Great Wall of Despair is said to have been built during the Long Night Era 8000 years ago.After the First Men united with the Children of the Forest to defeat the White Walkers in the War of Dawn, in order to protect the Seven Kingdoms from the White Walkers' invasion again, the legendary "Fortress Builder" Brandon from the Age of Heroes built with the help of giants The Wall is sworn to be guarded by a human legion called the Night's Watch for life.

This fortification, which is about 300 miles long and 700 feet high, is made of black ice. It extends from the Grand Canyon in the western mountains of Westeros to Seal Bay on the eastern coast of the mainland. The ancient spells and magic of the Green Seer, the Son of the Forest, can block the passage of magical creatures such as the White Walkers.

However, as people have gradually forgotten the legend of the Long Night in the past 8000 years, the meaning of the Great Wall and the Night Watchman in people's hearts has also changed from defending against the invasion of aliens to defending against the savages from outside the Great Wall.

The importance of the night watchmen has also been greatly reduced, and their troops have shrunk severely. Today, among the nineteen forts built along the Great Wall, only three forts, Shadow Tower, Castle Black, and Eastwatch, still have teams of night watchmen stationed there.

Moreover, the members of the Night's Watch in the past were all regular troops with status, and becoming a Night's Watch was a very honorable thing for the people of the Seven Kingdoms.Today, the Great Wall of Despair has become a lawless zone for the exiled prisoners of the Seven Kingdoms. The night watchmen are composed of death row prisoners, illegitimate children and other low-status people.

The number of night watchmen was too small, and it was too hard. This group of night watchmen had no merit but hard work. Yang Xin simply collected the night watchmen and moved them to Mole Village to engage in logistics work.

After doing all this, Yang Xin continued to send people to Slaver's Bay on the Essos continent to buy as many slaves as he wanted. Yang Xin did not think that there were too many people, but that there were too few. There were so many places in Westeros. They are all unopened lands. It is not difficult for just one northern territory to accommodate another 200 million slaves.

After Yang Xin owned a large number of slaves, he marched out of the Great Wall, occupied Baicun, and then moved north to occupy Custer's fortress.Custer's fort is not really a war fort, this fort is a hall covered with branches and earth, long and low, it can only accommodate 30-50 people at most.The gate is made of two-hide buckskin.There is only one hall and one room in the whole house, plus an attic on top used as a bedroom, connected by a shaky ladder.

After Yang Xin's army occupied this place, they directly bulldozed the fort and built a new fort, which Yang Xin named Hangu Pass.Yang Xin built Hangu Pass firstly to fortify the walls and clear the country to keep the enemy out of the country, and secondly to use Hangu Pass as a buffer for the Great Wall.

Yang Xin knew that the Night King had the Horn of Winter, which could blow down the Great Wall of Despair. In order to prevent this, Yang Xin simply mobilized an army of 30 slaves to build another pass outside the Great Wall of Despair.

In order to increase the enthusiasm of the slave army, Yang Xin deliberately changed and perfected the system of conferring military merits, and even made it clear to the slave army that building Hangu Pass was considered military merit.After all, the continent of Westeros has been unified, and the chances of fighting in the future will become slim, and the chances of being knighted through military merit are even less. The first batch of military nobles who were born as slaves have already been produced, and the eyes of the slave army are anxious, but If there is no war in the future, there will be no chance to gain military merit.

Yang Xin's action instantly ignited the enthusiasm of the slave army, and the slave army let out howls of excitement and joined the ranks of building Hangu Pass.

The newly built Hangu Pass is located in the ghost forest, with a lot of wood, the slave army directly used local materials, and with the material, financial and human support of the entire continent, Hangu Pass was built very quickly.

Relying on the Great Wall of Desperation, starting from the Shadow Tower and ending at East China Sea Watch, under Yang Xin's order, the Slave Legion built a large arch in Hangu Pass. Hangu Pass is both a pass and the urn of the Great Wall of Desperation.Yang Xin also let the slave army collectively enter the Ghost Forest to log. The timber was first used to build Hangu Pass, and the second was transported to Westeros.

The wood in the Haunted Forest is too good to waste, and cutting down the trees in the Haunted Forest is also to broaden the horizon and prevent the enemy from raiding the Haunted Forest.

Yang Xin's big move naturally attracted the attention of the barbarians outside the Great Wall. However, this action was an organized military operation of the Great Qin Empire, and the barbarian tribes didn't dare to attack the slave army at all.

Moreover, because the slave army wantonly cut down the trees in the Ghost Forest, it invisibly compressed the living space of the wild people outside the Great Wall, and constantly forced the wild people outside the Great Wall to move northward. The living space of savages.

In desperation, the barbarians outside the Great Wall launched an attack on the slave army, hoping to enter Hangu Pass and become the master of Hangu Pass.Unfortunately, the Slave Legion is not the Night's Watch.

The night watchman army has a maximum of 500 people, and Yang Xin's slave army outside the Great Wall has a full army of 30, and all the tribes of the Saibei wild people add up to less than [-] people. describe.

The savage coalition forces outside the fortress collapsed on their own without even firing three rounds of crossbows, and then fled deep into the ghost forest. Yang Xin would not let them go and directly dispatched the wolf cavalry.

The ghost forest is dominated by wolf cavalry, and the direwolves, carrying the knights on their backs, had fun in the ghost forest. At the same time, they drove and forced the Saibei savages to flee towards Hangu Pass.

In the end, except for a few of the Saibei savages who escaped, most of them became prisoners.

Yang Xin had no interest in talking to the king of the wild people of Saibei at all, so he sent Jon Snow out directly.At this time, Jon Snow was already a fighter-level master. Jon Snow entered the captive camp of the wild people in the north of the Great Wall alone, and defeated the King Beyond the Great Wall, Raymond, with only one hand.

The savage coalition forces in the north of the Great Wall had no capital to negotiate terms with Yang Xin. The military force that the King Beyond the Great Wall was proud of was nothing in front of the Great Qin Empire, so they had no choice but to obey Yang Xin's arrangements.

Jon Snow first selected the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled from the Northern Wilders, and sent them to the northern border to open up wasteland; then, he scattered all the remaining five thousand Wilders of the Great Northern, and placed them separately in the slave army, where they worked in correspondence. The construction of Guguan; finally, Jon sent the giant to Harrenhal where Yang Xin was located.

When Yang Xin saw these giants, he felt very excited at first, but after a little understanding, he lost his excitement for these giants.

These giants are just giants, not the Hulk.First of all, they have almost no combat skills and can only wield big sticks; secondly, the giants are very poor. From the fact that the weapons are big sticks, it can be seen that their weapons are logs without any processing. The giant's weapon is directly a small tree. This is not the point. The point is that they are too poor to eat enough.

So when they fight, they don't make inspiring war cries, nor do they show any qualities of warriors. They just do what they have to do slowly and calmly, just like going to work, with slow and dragging movements. ~~~···The giants' fighting spirit will only be aroused when their relatives and friends fall, but it is also obvious that they have no brute force and no tactics at all.

However, giants are legendary creatures after all. After Yang Xin saw the giants, he decided to build a giant army.
