Comments of chapter undefined of A Song of Ice and Fire. The Winter Wolf.

“Let your plans be dark ☁️ and 🏰 🛡 impenetrable as night 🌙 , and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt ⚡️.” - Sun Tzu, The Art of War.♟️⚔️ “It is the business of a general to be🥷 quiet and thus ensure secrecy; upright and just, and thus maintain order ⚖️ .” — Sun Tzu, The Art of War.♟️⚔️ “He🥷carries out his own secret 🤫♟️ designs, keeping his antagonists 🐍 in awe. Thus he is able to capture🎣their cities and overthrow their kingdoms” - Sun Tzu, The Art of War.♟️⚔️ Robb doesn’t tell most of the lords the reason behind his actions or anything about his plans because there’s spies everywhere. They’re at war. Honor and fairness is only reserved for those who are loyal; not for your enemies. Robb’s following the words of his House. He’s a Stark not an Arryn like his father Ned who had paid the ultimate price for his stupid code of honor and mercy. While all his enemies in the South had none. In war, intelligence is critical. This also means your enemy will use all means, fair and foul, to learn of your plans. So, in other words any secret shared is no longer a secret. And while some might be trusted even the sharing of a secret may be overheard. The trusted person may also be captured and tortured for their knowledge. They probably could be even blackmailed or bribed. So, the more critical the knowledge, the fewer should know. It is hence often better to keep major plans to oneself. Or maybe share a few of them with people whom you know won’t blab to others; or have big mouths like Greatjon Umber. Robb is right now doing all he can to win 🏆 the war as quickly as possible and ♟️ ⚔️ take his enemies by both speed🏎️ and surprise. Before he crushes them with impunity. Turning the Mother of🐉 Dragons into an ally is essential; since the Tyrells desire the Iron Throne. And Stannis is slowly becoming influenced by Melisandre who’s one crazy fanatic that’d willingly light a religious crusade against other religions in the kingdom.
