When Theon, Bloodwind and his team completed their mission and returned to Winterfell, half a month had passed since their departure.
Eddard accompanied Robert on the King's Road to King's Landing. The military power of Winterfell was firmly controlled by Robb in name and in reality.
At this time, Robb was taking Daisy to the bachelor's tower near the Hunter's Gate to the west of Winterfell.
Maester Luwin faced them and introduced the medical supplies on the table: "Poppy flower milk and sleeping wine, these two potions are used to relieve pain. But some weak-willed people will become addicted to them.
This Mill's ointment contains mustard seed, nettle and baker's yeast and can be used to apply to wounds to prevent infection.
Willow bark and silk thread are generally used to suture relatively large wounds. These are the medicines we can use on the battlefield."
"Thank you for your explanation, Teacher Luwin!
What is the price of these drugs? Can they be used on a large scale by soldiers?"
Robb listened patiently to what Maester Luwin had to say, and then lost the focus of his concerns.
"Poppy milk and sleeping wine are relatively expensive and cannot be used by ordinary soldiers. They are only suitable for officers or knights.
The price of Myr's ointment is not high, but the flight from Essos to Westeros is long. If we want to order in large quantities, it will take a long time.
As for willow bark and silk thread, the price is low, so there is no problem in using this for all soldiers."
"Well, Maester Luwin, I think our army's post-war treatment is too backward and the casualty mortality rate is too high.
Many people suffered sword wounds and burned their wounds directly with boiling water to stop bleeding and prevent infection.
Therefore, I want to set up a special battlefield rescue team to provide post-war treatment."
Robb expressed his thoughts. After all, when it comes to knowledge and knowledge, maesters are definitely more knowledgeable.
Maester Luwin nodded, thought for a moment and said: "There are battlefield ambulance teams like the one you mentioned in the south, but they are rare in the north. Perhaps to the poor northern nobles, the value of these medicines is more valuable than the lives of injured soldiers.
too much.
If you want to set up such a battlefield ambulance team, I can teach them some first aid and suture procedures.
As for the ointment, you can write to Lord Wyman Manderly, the Earl of White Harbor. As the 'mouth of the north', White Harbor has transactions with the nine major city-states in Essos."
"Thank you for your answer. I will recruit battlefield ambulance soldiers. Please teach them when the time comes."
"As it should be, Lord Robb!"
"Then let's take our leave now, Maester Luwin."
After bidding farewell to Maester Luwin, Robb and Daisy had just walked down the maester's tower when they saw Theon and his entourage who came to him to revive him.
The swift Xue Feng rushed to Robb's side immediately and skillfully inserted the wolf's head into Robb's arms, waiting for him to tickle him.
Robb certainly did not disappoint him. While serving Uncle Bloodwind who had returned from a long journey with both hands, he also greeted the three hard-working Theons.
After listening to Theon's briefing, Robb nodded and said to him: "Thank you three for your hard work. The Winterfell army is now led by the Wolf Guards. I have already arranged your positions. Have a good rest today and tomorrow
Start taking up your position well."
"Robb, what position have you assigned us? How many troops will we command?"
Xion, who was originally tired and exhausted from his travels, became energetic at this moment and asked without hesitation.
"You and Owen are the two commanders of the infantry archers, Little Jon and Ed are responsible for commanding the cavalry troops, and Chief Torun is in charge of the logistics auxiliary troops.
In terms of numbers, the archer infantry unit consists of 500 archers, 700 pikemen, and 1,500 ordinary infantry.
The cavalry force consists of 300 lancers, 200 horse archers, and 800 light cavalry. Finally, there is a 300-man logistics auxiliary force.
By the way, a special battlefield rescue team will be added in the future, I have just confirmed it with Master Luwin."
Robb was still very patient with the main generals under his command and explained to them the composition of their troops.
"I will definitely train them well!"
Theon, who had always been a marginalized person in Winterfell, had held so much military power for the first time. His blood was boiling in his heart, and he wanted to win a battle immediately to prove himself.
Owen and Little Jon were equally excited, with the expressions of those who would die for their confidants.
"Okay, let's have a good rest today!"
"Then I'll leave first!"
"We excuse ourselves, Lord Robb."
When all three of Theon, who were tired from the journey, were persuaded by Robb to rest, he had time to look at the lady and Nymeria whose fate had been changed.
I don’t know if they were well educated by Bloodwind during the journey back. The two direwolves, the size of adult wild wolves, were sitting quietly beside them, just like two well-behaved Alaskans.
"Lady, Nymeria, come here! Hey, hey!"
Robb called to them both.
As a result, these two cold direwolves showed no reaction at all.
"Let them come!"
Stopping his hands that had been tickling Bloodwind for a long time, Robb spoke to him.
"Woo!"
Uncle Bloodwind, who felt comfortable being served, raised his head and growled at them, and they both ran to Robb's side immediately.
It seems that they only take orders from the leader of the group, Bloodwind!
Robb nodded secretly and stretched out his hand to Nymeria's furry head.
As a result, no words of blood appeared!
Then I stretched out my other hand to touch the lady's head, but the result was the same.
After that incident, Robb now regards the Three-Eyed Raven as his enemy. And the only one who can deal with extraordinary power is Goldfinger.
So Robb wanted to change the fate of Lady and Nymeria to add new changes to Goldenfinger.
Turns out he was overthinking it!
But when he looked at Xue Feng attentively, he found an unexpected surprise.
There is an additional wolf pack in the Blood Contract. From the literal meaning, it should be Bloodwind who has collected Nymeria and the Lady into his own wolf pack.
The other three wolves that still have owners in the group cannot be merged into the wolf pack.
Robb already had the answer in his mind, because when he visited Brandon not long ago, he had just touched his summer.
Rickon was also in the room with his Shaggy dog, and he also touched it.
However, there are no names among Bloodwind's wolves today, and as for Jon's Ghost, that is even more impossible.
As for the meaning of the soldier wolf and servant wolf given by the blood contract, Robb guessed that it should be their status in the wolf pack!
Although I don’t know what the use of this wolf pack is yet, the blood contract will never make useless efforts, so let’s wait and explore slowly!
Anyway, the role of Robb's golden finger was completely discovered by him little by little.
