Chapter 184 Commander-in-Chief of the Night Watch

"Jon!"

The wind and snow blew in from the East Sea and scattered on the cloaks and leathers. The next day the world of the Great Wall would be covered with silver. If there was snow falling day and night, the night watchman's activities would have to be diverted to the insect tunnel.

Although the heavy snow blockade can slow down the savages' offensive, it will also trap Cole and the others here. This is what he does not want to see. The situation in the south cannot allow him to stay here for too long, so Cole came from the back hall

Chased out.

Jon turned his head when he heard the shout. The strong wind hit his face, and his black curly hair also beat. There were anger, disappointment, sadness and other emotions intertwined in his eyes.

There are already footprints on the ground, and the snow has only been falling for a while.

"You have to calm down, brother." He came over.

"brother?"

Cole nodded, "Brother Night Watch, isn't it?" He continued, "I know a lot of things have happened recently, but you must calm down at this time."

"Calm down." Jon's gloves gripped the cane tightly. "How could you know."

Cole sighed, "Although I can't sympathize with your pain, from an outsider's perspective, I think maybe bystanders can see it more clearly than you. Why don't you listen to the advice I give you?"

Jon looked at him.

"Sadness and anger can't help you break the situation." He said, "Do you know what Slynt and Alliser have prepared for you?"

"Prepare?"

"A savage, they captured a savage in Eastwatch who calls himself the King of Bones."

"Rattleshirt!" Jon called out his name. He liked others to call him the 'King of Bones'. The bones all over his body had always been his pride.

"Rattleshirt will serve as a witness against you for killing Qhorin Halfhand." Cole told him.

Jon was stunned for a moment, and then turned to anger. They would rather believe a wildling's words than believe themselves.

"They have legitimate grounds and evidence to charge you with the crime."

"I have never betrayed." Jon was very determined.

"I know." Cole agreed. "Just like Maester Aemon and Donal Noy, we all agree with your reasons, but you can't produce evidence to prove your innocence, Jon." He continued.

, "I participated in two trials by combat for Tyrion in the south. One was when your mother was sorry, but Lady Catelyn Tully thought he had framed Brandon Stark. In fact, you should know that although the world calls it

He's a little devil, but Tyrion is not that kind of person.

Without evidence, you will have nothing to say, Jon. Do you have any evidence or witnesses?"

Jon Snow fell silent.

"No? Very good." His words suddenly changed, "If this is the case, then you have to find another way to get rid of the crime."

"Have you ever thought about becoming Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, Jon." Cole asked.

Jon's head froze for a moment, and then he remembered what Sam said to him. The bear chose him as the commander-in-chief's steward because he wanted to train him to be his heir. Sam said that this was a common method used by nobles to train heirs.

"Snowstorm has descended on the Great Wall, but the defenders of the Great Wall are still in disarray at this time. I know that Slynt is planning the position of Commander-in-Chief. He is by no means a reliable person. Do you know why he was deprived of his rights to come to the vigil?

When he served as the Commander-in-Chief of the Capital Guard, he was famous for bribing and buying and selling positions in the Guard. Moreover, Lord Eddard Stark was once imprisoned because of his betrayal."

Cole shook his head, "You would never want such a person to serve as the commander-in-chief of the Great Wall."

"He may not be elected." On the Great Wall, there are also Pomegranate Guys, Carter Pike, Dennis Mallister and others, all of whom are quite prestigious.

"What if I tell you that he has the support of Tywin Lannister?" Cole said. "And the pomegranate has decided not to run for Lord Commander and instead supports Slynt."

"How do you know?" Jon looked at him in surprise.

"After all, I have lived in the Night's Watch for fifteen years." Cole replied.

He patted Jon on the shoulder, "I know that Mr. Bear thinks highly of you and gave you his sword Longclaw. I believe in his vision, Jon. I also believe in your character. I will help you."

As Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, Duke Eddard Stark took the trouble to come here precisely because he understood the importance of the Great Wall. Do you want the place he would guard with his life to be entrusted to Slynt?

Are you alone?"

Cole looked into his eyes and understood that Jon Snow had been shaken.

"Lord Eddard Stark, how could he want you to feel sorry for yourself like a child? You have to take your own responsibility, Jon. Now is not the time for you to be sad and angry."

"I" Jon swallowed the words in his mouth. He knew that what Cole said was right, but he was not a fool, so he paused for two breaths and then asked, "What do you want?"

Cole patted his breastplate, "I will tell you when you become commander-in-chief. Don't worry, I won't do anything to harm the brothers of the Night Watch, otherwise I wouldn't have gone all the way north.

"

"Be well prepared." After saying this, he turned around and left.

Jon Snow's eyes followed him closely, passing through the white falling snow.

In fact, what Cole didn't know was that Jon could see many things from Ghost, just in his dreams.

The sword that pierced the eye has always been firmly remembered in Jon's heart. He saw Gray Wind jumping up and saw Robb injured on the ground.

The sudden snowfall did change Cole's plans.

He had no intention of interfering with the internal affairs of the Night's Watch, and he also knew that Jon would become the Commander-in-Chief, and Addison Tollett was Old Bear's attendant. As a close confidant of Old Bear, he would help Jon and Black

There are many Mormont supporters in the castle, and they will all follow Addison to support Jon Snow.

Cole was eager to make Snow the commander-in-chief. Naturally, he took into account the situation of the savages. He made a promise to Mance Rayder and let them go south. With the ships in Cole's hands, he could not take so many away.

savages, not to mention giants and mammoths.

If you want to move the wildlings south, you must discuss it with Stark, and Jon is the link Cole plans to use to negotiate with the Stark family. His main purpose of going north is to form an alliance with the Stark family. If he can

Reaching nature is the best.

The troublesome thing is that Eddard Stark died at the hands of the wildlings.

If the Stark family attributes the death of Eddard Stark to the wildlings or Mance Rayder, then they will never let Cole lead people south easily.

He did remember that there were many ships in White Harbor. It was the help of Count Wyman Manderly that allowed Cole to lead the free people of the Moon Mountains southward.

But if this was all in vain, Cole was unwilling to do anything. He didn't know what Robb Stark would think, and he wasn't sure whether this former enemy would agree to form an alliance with him. At this time, Cole wanted to sit down

In Winterfell is Eddard Stark.

Standing under the King's Tower, he sighed, and as the white mist filled the air, Cole raised his head and glanced at the tower prepared for the King.
