Chapter 396: war

"My lord! My lord!" Faramo opened his eyes blankly, and found that he had been lifted off the ground at some unknown time. Several guards were frantically bandaging his wounds.
"How's the defense on the bridge?" Faramo sat up suddenly, and the wound on his thigh sucked in pain.
"My lord, please rest assured, the second echelon is on top!" The blood-stained adjutant said in a condensed voice: "But there is no shelter on the bridgehead, and the soldiers cannot avoid the opponent's catapult."
Faramo stood up hard and looked at the opposite bank, and saw that all the ladder trucks on the opponent's position had fallen down, and then there was chaos on the catapult position.
"God is still fighting for us!" Faramo gritted his teeth: "I wait for mortals to never leave God and escape!"
"I understand!" The adjutant paid a salute and immediately led the team to rush to the bridgehead instead of Faramo.
The ensuing battle was extremely fierce, and the entire bridgehead was like a flesh mill.
In order to fight for control of the bridge, the two armies frantically filled lives.
In times of crisis, even Faramo, who had suffered a serious right leg injury, personally went to the battle to help.
Until the blood-stained Chen Fan came back to guard the bridge again, nearly half of the human defenders had been killed here, and only less than a thousand people were left!
But Chen Fan only saw perseverance and determination in the eyes of these soldiers.
"It is my honor to be able to fight alongside you!" Chen Fan said solemnly: "Your heroic deeds will surely be celebrated from generation to generation."
The soldiers who fought hard all night, even if they were already exhausted, all raised their heads after hearing this.
"Hey!!!" Jie Ling's piercing roar sounded again, but he could no longer make these soldiers feel a trace of fear.
Because a touch of light has risen from the east!
...
"Gandalf!" Pi Ping quickly ran to him and said excitedly: "The Mordor army who attacked the ferry was defeated! Listen, cheers are everywhere in the city!"
Standing on the balcony with his pipe in his mouth, Gandalf said solemnly: "It's just a temporary retreat. Mordor will soon come back."
Pi Ping seemed to be splashed with cold water, and nervously asked, "How long can I hold on to the ferry?"
"Perhaps a long time, maybe a short time." Gandalf looked back at the beacon on the top of the mountain and said, "Piping, I need you to give play to your hobbit's specialties and come with me."
Gandalf put on a gray robe and walked through the alleyway with Pipin: "After my overnight observation, the guards on duty at the beacon tower will be handed over in the early morning. You must rush to light the beacon at that time."
Pi Ping said in shock: "But what if Gandalf I was discovered? The regent will definitely execute me!"
Gandalf said with a serious face: "So you can only succeed. Once you fail, Gondor will be helpless."
Pi Ping has a heavy shoulder and a sense of mission emerges spontaneously.
"Well, Gandalf, I will try my best."
"Go, I will cast a spell to cover you." Shuangxiu violent battle Gandalf opened his eyes and said nonsense.
But Pi Peng believed it stupidly, and saw the opportunity to quickly climb the steep cliff.
Gandalf had been watching silently, and suddenly a group of patrolling soldiers passed by, and he immediately bowed his head and shrank in the corner pretending to be a refugee.
After a long time, Pi Peng finally climbed the steep cliff to the beacon stage.
However, unlike the plot of the movie, the regent actually sent guards on duty, which was obviously expected to be bad for Gandalf.
Pi Peng, who was looking at him, was immediately dumbfounded when he saw the entire group of soldiers.
Just as he was riding a tiger and didn't know what to do, suddenly a rumbling thunder came from a distance!
Pi Ping immediately looked back, and saw that the Doomsday Volcano in Mordori suddenly erupted at this time.
The billowing volcanic cloud came with the wind, just blocking the sun.
Under the dark clouds, I saw the undead army of half-orcs who had just retreated again!
Pi Ping looked pale, knowing that he had to fight it out, otherwise once the undead half-orcs captured the crossing, their soldiers would be directed at the city of Minas Tirith.
Pi Peng gritted his teeth and stuck his head out, but was surprised to find that the guards on the beacon tower were shocked by the eruption of the Doomsday Volcano, and no one was staring at the beacon tower for a while.
Overjoyed, Pi Peng immediately turned over and climbed onto the firewood pile gently, then stepped his feet and took off the lantern and threw it directly into the firewood pile, then quickly jumped off the firewood pile and climbed down the cliff.
The wind quickly ignited the firewood by the fire.
When the guards realized that they wanted to fight it, it was too late.
Gandalf saw the fire finally ignited on the beacon, and immediately looked at the distant mountain tops. After a while, the light was faintly lit, but the hope of victory was passed on!
...
"Faramo, let your soldiers prepare to retreat." Chen Fan said solemnly.
"My lord!" Faramo said excitedly: "We will fight to the end!"
"It is meaningless to sacrifice in vain." Chen Fan slowly said: "Besides, I am not asking you to flee before the battle, but I have a more important task to ask you!"
"Speak up, please!" Faramo immediately said with a straight face.
Chen Fan pointed to the north and said: "You see the flames are already lit, and the Rohan cavalry who have already garrisoned the border will rush to support them immediately, but the Rohan cavalry will not be able to defeat so many undead army of half orcs no matter how brave they are!"
Although the cavalry has an overwhelming advantage against the infantry, the premise is based on the infantry's psychological fear of the cavalry.
After all, as long as normal people face the heavy armored cavalry rushing towards you, their first reaction is to weaken their legs in fear.
So when an infantry corps is pierced by a torrent of rolling steel, there is a 90% chance that its morale will collapse directly, and then there will be a side-to-side massacre.
But this trick is not effective against the undead who are not afraid of death. When the Rohan cavalry loses its mobility in the enemy's line, it will only be overwhelmed by countless undead seas.
Therefore, if the original plot develops, King Haydon takes the Rohan cavalry directly to the army of half-orcs and undead, it is absolutely no different from looking for death.
When Faramo heard what Chen Fan said, he immediately felt cold all over his body.
"My lord, are you asking us to prevent the Kingdom of Rohan from coming to help?"
"No~EbookFREE.me~ Chen Fan shook his head and said: "The greatest advantage of cavalry lies in its high mobility! Therefore, please tell King Xiuton not to attack the enemy head-on, and should use his strengths to attack the enemy. I believe that King Xiuton knows more about how to implement it. "
In fact, Chen Fan was selfish and didn't want these heroic soldiers to sacrifice their lives in vain as in the movie, so he showed them a way out.
"I understand, thank you sir, we will definitely complete your explanation!" Faramo solemnly saluted.
The surviving soldiers rode on their war horses, and when they passed by Chen Fan, they all bowed to him solemnly.
Then the Gondor elite who had been fighting for a whole night quickly followed the Anduin River northward.
Chen Fan retracted his gaze, grabbed the steel spear and turned and stared at the other side, searching for something.
Suddenly hearing a roar of flying dragons, I saw several black flying dragons flying into the air and chasing them.
Chen Fan sneered, weighed the spear in his hand, and then threw it out with all his strength!
