Chapter 480: Changes in the North
Chapter 480: Changes in the North
Daenerys first used a public trial to tear off the sacred cloak of the church, and then used money and food to bribe the residents. After this combination of moves, even the residents who were originally devout believers were grateful to Daenerys.
Many people hated the church and regarded it as a cult. Daenerys' prestige reached its peak at this public trial.
In addition to these, after the public trial was completed, Daenerys directly ordered that all the priests, bishops, and archbishops be beheaded in the square as a public example.
The priests who were once high and mighty were seen being dragged by the soldiers like dead dogs, and then there was the flash of bright knives, blood flying everywhere, and a huge head rolling down.
The surrounding residents cheered and celebrated the beheading of these priests.
Every time a priest was beheaded, there would be cheers. After this operation, the residents completely lost their awe of the clergy.
After all, these clergy were killed like dead dogs. The bodies were then thrown aside, and when there were enough of them, they would be transported directly to the city by a carriage and buried somewhere at random.
As the archbishop, the High Sparrow was naturally treated the highest. He was left until the end and was paraded through the streets by the soldiers for public display.
The High Sparrow was extremely angry at this moment, but he was suppressed when he wanted to resist.
He wanted to speak, but couldn't utter anything. A silencing spell had been cast on him, and he felt like a dead dog being paraded through the streets.
What he was going through now was exactly what he had done to Cersei. Daenerys had used it on him exactly the same way.
The high and mighty archbishop was dragged away like a dead dog, with only a piece of rag covering his body, but the rag could not cover anything at all.
Countless people cursed him and threw all kinds of garbage at him. The High Sparrow, which had glared at him at first, soon became so ashamed and angry that he wanted to die.
After parading him around, Daenerys ordered him to be beheaded in the square.
Seeing heads falling to the ground and countless people cheering loudly, Daenerys was very happy, so she ordered that the food and money in the square be distributed to the people who came.
Although there are many residents in this city, the church has accumulated more wealth. Even after distributing it to a large number of civilians, the amount is still large.
Daenerys doesn't care about the money and grain. In fact, as long as the land is restored to cultivation, a huge amount of money and grain can be harvested. She does this to win people's hearts and to restore production.
After more than ten years of war, the basic production of the Seven Kingdoms has been severely damaged, and Daenerys needs to recover as soon as possible.
Next, Daenerys began to repair the city using a work-for-relief approach. Many parts of King's Landing were severely burned by Cersei's fire and needed to be renovated.
After Daenerys dealt with the church, she gained a large amount of money and grain, which she used to repair the city. At the same time, Daenerys also confiscated the property of the nobles.
The wealth of these nobles was not much less than that of the Church.
With Daenerys' huge investment of money and food, even though King's Landing had just experienced war and suffered severe damage, it quickly regained its vitality.
A large number of civilians were hired to clear the ruins and then carry out reconstruction work.
Even because of the reconstruction of King's Landing, a large number of civilians were able to have enough food to eat and earn money. After the news spread, it attracted more disaster victims.
Daenerys accepts everyone who comes. Others think these disaster victims are a burden and a negative asset, but after being educated by Richard, she knows that talent is the most important in troubled times. Both production and military personnel require population. Only when the population is large enough can a large amount of tax revenue be contributed, and only when there are enough people can a large number of troops be recruited.
Daenerys absorbed a large number of people and began to rebuild the city. At the same time, she also organized people to reclaim the wasteland outside the city.
In the past, due to wars, many lands had been abandoned, and Daenerys began to restore them.
Just when the entire King's Landing turned into a large construction site, Grey Worm hurried over.
"Your Majesty, we just found Cersei's body!"
"Corpse? Didn't she escape?" Daenerys said.
"Your Majesty, she escaped through the secret passage, but failed to control the force of the explosion. The secret passage collapsed and she was trapped underneath."
Daenerys shook her head slightly after hearing this, and then said, "If you find it, then order someone to find her a coffin and sell it!"
"The person is already dead, so the debt is settled!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" After receiving the order, Grey Worm left the palace and ordered his men to put Cersei's body in a coffin and bury it.
Just as Daenerys recaptured King's Landing, almost endless numbers of White Walkers and wights had arrived far outside the Wall in the North.
Under the control of the White Walkers, countless wights began to attack the Wall. Although these wights were numerous and fearless, they had no way to deal with the Wall that was dozens of meters high.
However, those White Walkers were very cunning and stood behind, so the dragonglass arrows of the Night's Watch could not penetrate them at all.
After getting the support of Daenerys, the Night's Watch obtained a large amount of dragonglass and even prepared a large number of dragonglass arrows. During the first large-scale attack of the White Walkers, they used the dragonglass to inflict heavy losses on those White Walkers.
But the White Walkers that followed learned their lesson and no longer approached the city walls. Instead, they attacked with their wights, which were actually corpses controlled by magic.
No matter how much the loss is, they won't feel bad. They will just use magic to control it.
Faced with the actions of the White Walkers, the faces of the Night's Watch also looked grim.
Endless wights kept attacking, consuming the strength and supplies of the Night's Watch. In fact, the Night's Watch had not seen a major war for thousands of years, and even they believed that the White Walkers had long been extinct.
But reality taught them a hard lesson.
Facing the invasion of the White Walkers, the Night's Watch simply did not have enough supplies. As for obtaining supplies from the North, the North was still in chaos at that time. The invasion of the Ironborn had caused war everywhere in the North.
Seeing the number of the zombie army decreasing in the distance, the night watchmen on duty breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the zombies were about to retreat, and they held on for another day.
But before these night watchmen could be happy, a deafening roar suddenly sounded, and then they felt the rock-solid city wall beneath their feet suddenly shake, and everyone hurriedly looked around.
I saw a section of the Great Wall not far away collapse.
The Great Wall of Despair, which had been like an iron curtain blocking the northern border, suddenly collapsed.
