Chapter 286 - Chapter 282 Until training is complete, the defense of Calamity City will be handled by the Chosen of the Seven Legion."

The Calamity Chosen Legion will be divided into five sub-legions, each with a standing army of five thousand men, named Calamity, Death, War, Famine, and Plague respectively.

All Calamity Chosen Legions must undergo training in Summerhall, and all officers must undergo loyalty trials.

Until training is complete, the defense of Calamity City will be handled by the Chosen of the Seven Legion."

Hearing Lynd's decision, everyone was stunned and looked at each other.

"What? Do you have any objections?" Lynd frowned and asked in a deep voice.

"No," everyone quickly replied.

"In that case, go and prepare!" Lynd motioned for them to leave.

After the Chosen Legion members gradually left, Jon couldn't help but voice his concern, asking, "My Lord, such a large-scale military deployment might cause some..."

"It's fine." Lynd shook his head, dispelling Jon's doubts, and said, "There haven't been any major wars in recent years.

All minor skirmishes have been resolved by local garrisons.

Although the legions train daily, training cannot replace actual combat.

There are plenty of things happening in Essos; it would be better to send the Chosen Legion there for some practical training.

As for what others think, we don't need to pay attention to it."

Seeing Lynd say this, Jon had no need to say anything more.

He then pulled out an intelligence report from a stack of documents, handed it to Lynd, and said, "My Lord, you might need to see this report."

Lynd took the intelligence report and read it.

The content mainly stated that Euron had been discovered secretly infiltrating the Iron Islands and meeting with lords who were dissatisfied with the various reforms there.

From the lords' various material allocation movements, it seemed they were planning a rebellion against Asha.

"Does Asha know about this?" Lynd asked after putting down the report.

"She knows, but she hasn't taken immediate action.

Instead, she plans to wait for them to gather together and then capture them all in one fell swoop." Jon took out another document sent from the Stepstones, handed it to Lynd, and said, "Dagon applied for the fleet to go to the Iron Islands to replace Beller's fleet some time ago, likely for this matter.

Now the Three Sea Monsters' fleet should already be near the Iron Islands."

Lynd looked at the document and was very satisfied with Asha's cautious nature.

He put down the document, preparing to deal with other matters, when he suddenly thought of something.

He picked up the document again, looked at it, and said, "This is a good opportunity!"

"What good opportunity?" Jon asked, puzzled by the remark.

Lynd did not speak, but simply picked up the documents on the table and continued to flip through, review, and annotate them.

After a while, after he had finished processing all the official documents on the table, he issued another directive and handed it to Jon, saying, "Hand this directive to the Privy Council and have them approve it immediately and send it to Calamity City as soon as possible."

Jon took the directive and looked at it, stunned for a moment, then asked, "Grain production is already saturated now, even if there's blight and a reduction in yield, the overall grain output won't be small.

Is it really necessary for Calamity City to be responsible for opening up farmlands in the surrounding areas for cultivation? Wouldn't that be a bit..."

"Just do it," Lynd ordered directly, without intending to explain to Jon.

"Yes, My Lord." Although Jon didn't understand why Lynd had such a deep obsession with grain, he felt that Lynd must have a profound reason for doing so.

He thought he should send a letter to his Black Crown City, instructing Maester Normund to also stockpile some grain.

"What year is it in Aegon's Calendar?" Lynd suddenly asked.

Jon thought for a moment and said, "It should be 297 AC."

"It's already 297 AC?" Lynd's memories were awakened by this year.

If he remembered correctly, this year should be the starting point of the series in his previous life.

The Others had already begun to infiltrate south and had attacked the Nights Watch Rangers.

"Find the reports from the Wall and Beyond the Wall from recently; I want to see them," Lynd said in a deep voice.

Jon quickly found the organized relevant intelligence reports in the temporary archives next to the study.

Lynd had always attached great importance to matters concerning the Wall and Beyond the Wall, and for this purpose, he had specially dispatched a team of men to the Wall to collect various intelligence, and also had Daisy collect intelligence from Beyond the Wall, compiling it into a book.
