Chapter 185: Keep Out of the City

Keeping the Enemies Out After arranging the troops, Daenerys rode on Drogon and rushed to the North with three dragons.

Winterfell. Jon had already led the remaining troops to Winterfell yesterday, but was blocked outside Winterfell by Ramsay the Flayed who occupied Winterfell.

The reason was that he had not received any order from King's Landing to let the Night's Watch forces in.

Looking at the castle where he grew up being occupied by others, Jon really wanted to break in and retake Winterfell right now.

But the army of death led by the Night King was slowly approaching from hundreds of kilometers away, and the situation and responsibilities prevented him from doing so.

The scouts under the command of Johnny English in the city also learned that the army of the dead had broken through the Wall, and did not doubt Jon's words.

But how could he be willing to give up Winterfell, which he had obtained with great difficulty?

Moreover, King's Landing's attitude towards the White Walkers is still unclear, so he certainly won't let Jon into the city at will.

Jon could only stay outside Winterfell with his soldiers and wait for news from King's Landing and Dragonstone.

The Night's Watch had sent letters to various noble forces for help more than once, but received no response except from Stannis.

Now that the Wall has been lost and the army of the dead is marching in, he doesn't know whether the nobles will believe the news about the White Walkers told by the Night's Watch.

If they just do nothing and allow the Death Army to wreak havoc in the North, then all the northerners, including themselves and the newly joined wildlings, will become new wights.

When the Army of the Dead crosses the Neck and invades the southern border, there will probably be more than 300,000 soldiers. By then, no army will be able to stop the coming of winter in Westeros.

After seeing the Night King approaching the Wall, Jon truly understood the meaning of the Stark family motto "Winter is coming". Wherever the Night King goes, there is winter.

The temperature south of the Wall has begun to drop sharply. He did not expect that the Night King could actually drive climate change in the entire North. It was really unbelievable.

"I just saw a raven fly into Winterfell!"

Jon, who was looking at Winterfell, suddenly heard a soldier next to him say.

"I saw it too. It must be a raven!"

Jon, who had not cared much at first, opened his eyes wide and looked towards the sky above Winterfell when he heard the two say they saw ravens, but he saw nothing.

Ravens have been seen flying into Winterfell more than once, but the gates of Winterfell have always remained closed.

Even so, there were still many people like Jon who heard the shouting and looked towards Winterfell.

They didn't necessarily have to enter Winterfell, but were waiting to see Dragonstone and King's Landing's attitude towards the Army of the Dead.

If they are unwilling to send troops, then the soldiers outside the city will have no choice but to die.

An hour later, seeing that there was still no movement in Winterfell, the soldiers waiting for news gradually went from disappointment to despair, and some even had the same idea as Jon, and charged directly into Winterfell.

Looking at the unstable emotions of the three coalition forces around him, Jon didn't know how long he could control them. He even doubted whether he would want to control them after a while.

"Look! What is that?" At this moment someone in the camp shouted, and everyone looked in the direction of the voice. Three shadows in the air were slowly getting bigger in their field of vision.

"Dragon! It's a dragon! The Queen of Dragonstone is here!" After seeing clearly that the three shadows were not ordinary flying birds, someone shouted loudly.

Jon also stood up from the ground and walked forward, feeling very happy. As long as he had the support of the Mother of Dragons and her three dragons, it would be possible to defeat the Night King's army even if King's Landing did not send a single soldier.

Seeing from afar Winterfell, which was not much different from before, and the army stationed outside, Drogon and Daenerys both breathed a sigh of relief.

They arrived not too late, and Winterfell was still safe.

In the sky, Drogon had already seen Jon who was eagerly waiting, and flew down and landed on the open space in front of him.

Almost no one in the army, whether it was the Night's Watch or the wildlings, had ever seen a real dragon, and they did not expect Drogon to be so huge.

Although they didn't understand why the other two dragons were much smaller than the black dragon, it did not affect their confidence in the three dragons at all.

With the addition of three dragons, they didn't believe that the Night King could survive the dragon's flames and claws.

After getting off Drogon's back, Daenerys looked at Jon and the people around him and asked in confusion, "Why are you here? Why don't you go into Winterfell?"

Daenerys' question made Jon, who was already embarrassed, even more embarrassed.

He glanced at Winterfell and said, "Ramsay said he couldn't let us in without receiving an order from King's Landing."

Daenerys was very angry when she heard Jon's answer. She was already a little angry that Cersei only sent half of the troops and demanded the release of Jaime.

Unexpectedly, Ramsay of Winterfell, her subordinate, would be so uncooperative with the Night's Watch in resisting the White Walkers.

Nearly ten hours had passed since the agreement was signed, and the message delivered by the raven should have reached Winterfell long ago.

There are only two possibilities for not opening the door now. Either King's Landing deliberately delayed the news of the signing of the agreement, or Winterfell refused to execute the order after receiving it. Daenerys would not allow either of these two.

"You wait here first!" After saying this to Jon, Daenerys turned around and walked onto the dragon's back, letting Drogon carry her to Winterfell.

The news of the arrival of the three dragons has also been learned by Ramsay in Winterfell.

Jon's men were not mistaken more than an hour ago. Ravens did fly into Winterfell.

The message conveyed was the armistice agreement signed between King's Landing and Dragonstone, and at the same time, they were asked to open the city gates to allow the Night's Watch and the upcoming coalition forces to enter the city.

Ramsay did not expect that King's Landing would actually send troops to the North. He originally planned to abandon the city and flee after fully confirming the number of the Death Legion. He did not expect to receive the news that the two parties had signed an agreement so soon.

He knew that as long as he opened the city gate, not only would Winterfell no longer belong to him, but even his subordinates, who he had worked so hard to get, and himself would have to fight against the resurrected dead.

Although he is not afraid of fighting the living, he is very wary of the Night King's strange army of the dead.

After receiving the order from King's Landing, he was considering whether there was any way to avoid the battle with the White Walkers, when he heard his men report that three giant dragons flew outside the city.

Ramsay's heart suddenly sank. He had also heard that the Dragon Queen of Slaver's Bay had come to Westeros, but he didn't expect that she would come to Winterfell so soon.

Standing on the city wall, Ramsay felt a bitter taste in his mouth when he saw Daenerys and Jon riding their dragons towards him without saying a few words.

In addition to the White Walkers, dragons are also one of the enemies he doesn't want to face.

Feeling the huge black shadow pressing towards the city wall, even a brave man like Ramsay could not help but take two steps back.

Stepping off the dragon's back and coming in front of Ramsay, Daenerys asked directly: "Are you Ramsay?"

"Your Majesty, it's me." Ramsay said honestly with his head slightly lowered.

[What a good pretense!] Looking at Ramsay's serious and respectful look, Drogon reminded Daenerys in his heart.

But he knew what a perverted and sick heart was hidden beneath Ramsay's pale and handsome appearance.
