Chapter 288: Battle of Rohan (7)

In the early morning of the next day, the entire Edoras was mobilized, because King Hiurdon, who had broken free from the control of the evil white-robed wizard Saruman, released an announcement in their capital of the Luo Khanate. Order: From now on, the whole city of Idoras will be evacuated. Everyone must bring necessary light assets and some food and other necessities for life before noon to take refuge in the easy-to-defend and hard-to-attack Horn Fort of Helm Valley!
This order was executed very quickly. At noon, the residents of the entire capital of Edoras, under the protection of Rohan's infantry, began to evacuate to the Holy Helm Valley in an orderly manner.
The reason why it can be so fast is actually because there are only less than 6,000 residents in this Edoras.
One is because the Rohan Hussars, a traditional nomadic nation, does not have many people who are willing or like to live in cities, but they need to chase pastures to graze cattle, sheep or horses; the second is Because in this period of low productivity in Middle-earth, a city with more than five thousand people is already a big city!
In this era of low productivity, if too many people gather together, the problem of eating can make Luohan people unable to bear it.
"Theyurdon, you Rohan Hussar, do you really want to join that little witch's Alicia United Kingdom?!"
"Please trust us, Gandalf will bring back Iomo's cavalry in time. You don't have to go to that kind of country of unknown origin!"
"Moreover, their kingship is not legal at all! What they occupy is the territory of the original Kingdom of Yarnuo, the territory of our Dundan people!"
Seeing the thousands of Edoras residents who were evacuating in a long snake formation under the protection of less than 1,500 soldiers, Aragorn rode his horse to the side of Hidden and spoke to him.
Last night, in the palace hall, because of the Alicia United Kingdom, he, Aragon and Gandalf, almost fell apart with the little girl! The relationship between the two parties is almost at a freezing point!
Because Gandalf does not trust the newly emerging Alicia United Kingdom, and even more does not trust the ambitious Queen Ofina who wants to annex the Rohan Hussar!
In Gandalf’s view, Ofina, who is also of unknown origin, is even the same as Saruman or Demon Lord Sauron. They are all delusions to join the Middle-earth Continent and achieve some of their ulterior goals. Conspiracy!
Gandalf does not allow a unified state or coalition to appear in the Middle-Earth Continent! This is not only his meaning, but also the wishes of the Vera gods!
The former Numanor empire, the former Numanor people who were greedy and wanted to attack Amen Chau for more benefits are a lesson for the past! Therefore, the Zhushens do not allow the same country to appear in the Middle-earth Continent, even if it is a sign!
This is also the most reason why Gandalf has been dealing with countries and guiding various races and countries to fight against Mordor who wants to dominate the Middle-earth world! Fighting against evil is only one of them. Preventing people in Middle-earth from having too many ideas or unrealistic ideas is the top priority!
So, because of this, they had a big quarrel in the hall of the palace last night, and almost staged a full martial arts!
Aragorn and Gandalf accused the little girl and the Queen Ofina of wantonly invading the territory of the people of Middle-earth and expanding their territory to provoke war, pointing to their behavior as the evil demon Sauron!
In fact, whether it is because Aragorn is jealous or Gandalf is unwilling to see Middle-earth, which he has trained for more than two thousand years, fall into the hands of an unstable little girl, it is open to question.
The little girl Annie and the Queen Ofina said: Everything they did was to fight Mordor and make Middle-earth peace forever!
Therefore, in the end, the two sides naturally broke up. The United Kingdom of Alicia cannot stop its expansion, nor can it return the territories it has acquired! Even, they still want to tempt the entire Rohan to join?
In Gandalf's original plan, Rohan Hussar was definitely bound to Gondor, not the United Kingdom of Alicia who didn't know the details!
So, early in the morning, Gandalf set off on his horse, Jieking, angrily.
He intends to find enough reinforcements to rescue the Luo Khanate in trouble, rescue the confused king who led the people to the dead end of the Valley of Helm, and prevent them from joining the so-called Alicia United Kingdom.
He didn't want to see that red-bottomed gold-rimmed vulture flag on the land of Rohan Hussar!
This is mainly because, last night, the king of Rohan, Hidden, has already expressed his attitude: in the end, who can save their country from the hands of Saruman and the Dunland barbarians, who can help him defeat Saruman, they Rohan are on whose side!
Similarly, in the early morning of the next day, the little girl disappeared. No one, including Gandalf, knew where she was going, or what conspiracy was she doing?
"Aragorn...you should understand that there is no eternal kingship!"
"The Kingdom of Jarno has been perished for countless years. Whether that Alicia is legal or not is determined by strength!"
"Now, everything is over! You should learn to let go, as if you gave up your original identity and responsibility!"
After experiencing the pain of losing a child and watching the once powerful Rohan Hussar country lost to such a situation, Hidden began to take power less seriously.
When he wanted to come, at this moment, if there is no more foreign aid, with the current Rohan, it will definitely not be able to fight the coalition forces of Isinger and Denland! In the intelligence, they have at least tens of thousands of troops this time! Moreover, it is said that Isengard is still using evil magic to make strong orcs in batches?
In this case, maybe it is really a good choice to choose to stand with a strong man?
As for this Aragorn, he didn't even dare to try to get it or inherit from the Gondor Kingdom in the southern part of Norda. Now what is the point of thinking about and jealous of the original territory of Arno? In Hidden's view, his country has nothing to do with him since Aragorn was in exile in Rivendell.
People are selfish, no one will support a king without soldiers and rights, even if he is legal no matter how legal! As for Gondor... If Hidden himself is the Prime Minister of Gondor, as long as there is no major accident, he is not willing to welcome back a king who is in the way!
"..."
Seeing Hidden, who had made up his mind in his heart, Aragorn could only silently slow down the speed of his mount, allowing the opponent to accelerate away. Maybe, he really wants to follow what Gandalf said, is it time to take back his inheritance and his Gondor kingdom?
Otherwise, he, a wandering ranger, would be too passive in anything!
Now, he can only pin his hopes on Gandalf. They, the group of people, these civilians to the Valley of the Helm. It will take about three or four days. I hope that the other party can move there as they said in the morning. Enough rescuers will appear in the first light after the fifth day...

The two hobbits who have nowhere to go for the time being, for the sake of safety, have been fooling around with the tree-herder’s tree beards in this Fargon forest. They eat and sleep every day, and eat after they have enough sleep. Here, In addition to being a little lonely and not having more entertainment and pastimes, life is also easy!
From time to time, they still wandered around with the tree beard, and they also saw many other tree shepherd people of the other side, and they also saw the other side's horribly inefficient tree people meeting?
"Tree whiskers? Where are we going?!"
Today's night is already very deep, and the Hobbit Pippin and Meli, who were originally sleeping on the tree-horse's tree whiskers, started to ask suspiciously when they were awake.
Because they found that things seemed a little bit wrong tonight?
Where they could see, at least they saw dozens of tree shepherds, but in the distance, there seemed to be more? They are walking silently to the southwest with the tree whiskers under them.
The two hobbits knew very well. In the southwest of the Fargon Forest, wouldn't that be Isinger's direction? And now, with so many tree shepherds running to Isengard's side, are they going to fight with the white-robed wizard Saruman?
"We... are going... responding to... the call of the evil little witch..."
After turning his head and looking at the two hobbits who had been with him for several days, Treebeard sighed heavily.
The tree shepherds actually did not want to participate in the war of Middle-earth. In the War of the Ancients, Morgoth and his minions caused too much damage to their tree shepherds... so , They originally wanted to continue to watch as they did in the Second Era, they didn't want to join any party!
But how could they think that that evil little witch, she used their most caring things to coerce them into the war? Those tree wives...For the tree wives of their tree shepherds, they have no other better way than being forced to agree to the threat of the little witch.
"You are going to attack Isengard? This is great! Saruman must be finished!"
Standing up and making a rough estimate, after seeing at least hundreds of tree shepherds walking silently in the direction of Isengard, Pippin and Meli began to cheer excitedly.
They were previously assigned by Gandalf to stay here in the Fargon Forest. Apart from being safe here, wasn't it just to fool these shepherds to fight with Saruman of Isengard? And now, when they haven't done anything, this task is about to be completed? !
"Saruman? No... Our Treant is not Saruman's opponent..."
Seeing the two hobbits dancing around in excitement, Treebeard finally gave them a small blow after thinking about it.
"Just based on the words of hundreds of treants... we can't beat Saruman..."
"The evil white-robed wizard...he hides on the tower...will release lightning...and terrible flames..."
"If... we enter the range of his tower... he can... burn all our treants..."
If the opponent is only dealing with the strong orcs or half-orcs under the white robe of Saruman, Treebeard can be sure to use a small loss to destroy the opponent's base into a sparse!
But if it was against the evil white-robed wizard, he would have nothing very good...
These tree shepherds are too big in size, and their movements are too slow. They are just living targets for people to face the wizards who can cast evil spells.
"Can't beat it?"
"Wait! If we can't beat the white-robed wizard, why do we still go to Isengard now?!"
Pippin and Melly were so frightened that they hurriedly asked.
If they can beat Saruman, then they definitely want to join in the fun! But if you follow along after knowing that you can't beat them, you're silly. They are two hobbits who like to enjoy themselves, but they don't want to just die like this!
"That's because... that little witch... she's back..."
Treebeard said dejectedly, it didn't like the little witch, but it had to obey the other's orders.
But in fact, if their tree whiskers help the little witch, isn't it true that there are no other benefits?
In addition to knowing the exact location of the tree wives, they can also expand their Fargon Forest to the west, to a place further west of Dolbaran. These are the conditions that have been negotiated before. The little witch gave them the promised new territory of the Treant.
"Your Excellency Anne Witch, she really came back? That's great!"
Unlike Gandalf or others who were jealous of the little witch, the Hobbits Pippin and Melly felt that the little human witch named Annie had a great appetite for them anyway! It can even be said to be similar?
After all, when they were in Rivendell, they had stolen chickens, touched dogs, mixed into the treasure house of elves, and ate the beasts of King Elrond. After doing these things together, they established Begin a deep friendship!
"If this is the case, then we can't wait to attack Isengard now!"
"Yes! Maybe, we should prepare some ammunition first? For example... a large bag of big rocks that can be used to smash orcs?"
After knowing the whole story, Pippin and Melly began to discuss with excitement.
If they were hiding in the tall and safe treants and throwing stones at those strong orcs or half-orcs, they felt that their combat effectiveness was still very strong!
"No hurry... Let's go to the south to wait... Waiting for the signal from the little witch... Tonight, the night is still very long..."
After slowly stepping the distance of the ten digits, the tree beard said with an urn voice again.
Compared to victory, it hopes that in this battle tonight, it won't let its tree-herders lose too much staff! They now only have these hundreds of people left...
And the big moving trees in the Fagong Forest, those tree beards that can be seen everywhere, without a tree wife, they can never become a tree shepherd, they can only be managed by their tree shepherd. Tree friends...
...
"Your Excellency Chief of the Legion! Saruman's army is moving! Now they are organizing an army and intend to break through our blockade!"
"He must have discovered that Her Majesty Queen Ofina led the main force to leave here, what should we do now?!"
When King Hiurdon of Rohan led the residents of Edoras to take refuge in Horn Fort, Queen Ofina also led her main force to leave the barracks secretly in the night before, and began to face the people in Rohan. Toward the southeast of the Helm Valley.
And now, outside of Isengard, there are only some artillery formations that are not convenient for fast marching, musketeers with less than 300 men, and a miscellaneous army of about 1,000 men.
Therefore, when it was detected that there were strong orcs organized within Isinger’s high walls again, and they planned to forcibly attack their now weak blockade, an officer quickly rode his horse and ran to the side where Ellie was standing. The flag of West Asia and the second legion commander Renas next to a bonfire reported to him.
"Huh! He Saruman has actually discovered it a long time ago! The reason why he is attacking now is because he thinks the number of troops may not be enough, so he has only waited for these few days!"
"The Musketeers are ready to line up! Let the artillery fill the shells. If Saruman thinks that with a force of less than five thousand men, he wants to break through our blockade, then he is wrong!"
Seeing the strong orcs who opened the gate of the high wall and lined up the neat phalanx and came out shouting slogans, Renas sneered in disdain.
It seems that during the time they surrounded Isengard, the other party finally learned some good methods, and also knew that they chose to launch an offensive in the case of poor vision at night, and wanted to use night combat to destroy their firearms. Will the advantage be suppressed?
If they rely solely on their current army of more than a thousand people and artillery, under the opponent's decisive charge, they might really not be able to hold here! After all, when the number of guns is insufficient, using artillery with slow reloading speed to deal with infantry who can move and charge may indeed be a bit difficult.
But now they are not just these people, they have even more powerful assassins!
"Send a signal flare and let the trees prepare to attack!"
Seeing the dozens of phalanxes with hundreds of people in the distance, plus at least thousands of strong orcs, were pressing toward her along the road they deliberately set aside, the corners of Lenas's mouth were invisible. Bend up, and then categorically ordered.
Now those tree beards in the Fargon Forest that are controlled by tree shepherds, those big trees that can move and strangle people, have already gradually rushed over when they blocked Isengard's gate in the United Kingdom of Alicia. , And occupied all the other places except the road to Isengard's gate!
"But, the commander of the legion! If you let the trees attack now, they will suffer heavy losses under the blow of that mage tower..."
Looking at the towering black mage tower in the distance, the herald didn't quite understand.
When their Queen Orfina was still leading a large army to block here, it was because of the existence of the opponent's mage tower that she didn't want to launch a general attack. Otherwise, under the siege of thousands of main forces and powerful trees, this Where will Isinger stay until now?
"Heh! Don't worry, Saruman has no time to release spells now, go and execute the order!"

"Hmph! My army will crush you!"
Inside Isinger, on a platform like a protruding balcony of the Osanco Tower, Saruman sneered and looked at the scattered fires in the distance.
His Isengard has been blocked by the little girls who claim to be the Kingdom of Alicia for quite a while, and now, after they have produced thousands of strong orcs immediately, Saruman finally decided to Taking advantage of the opponent's main force is not here, break the opponent's blockade in one fell swoop!
Saruman nodded in satisfaction after watching his thousands of troops began to shout loud slogans, and slowly moved towards the position of the garrison barracks of the United Kingdom of Alicia far from Isengard's gate.
Now, his army of tens of thousands of strong orcs has entered the territory of the Luo Khanate. Now, it is estimated that it is about to launch a sweeping operation against the horn fort in the Valley of the Helm or other important targets?
A few days ago, when the Queen of Alicia led a troop to block his Isengard gate, he forcibly resisted the urge to let the tens of thousands of troops return, and just confronted the opponent like this, no one could help. Who!
Until today, after the opponent’s main force had begun to help Rohan, he ordered the strong orc army, which was finally produced again, to start attacking, preparing to drive away those who blocked the door, and let his melting pot under Isengard. To continue to get more wood and other resources to continue to produce the army.
You know, they have actually stopped production for several days, and if they are blocked by the enemy again, it is estimated that even the pot will almost not be opened...
"what is that?!"
Just as he was about to turn around and walk back to the main control room of the tower from the balcony of the mage tower, a huge colorful firework suddenly exploded in the dark sky in the distance, and then, the Fagong beside the road The forest started to agitate?
Then, big trees that could move started pouring into Isengard, and at the same time, those shepherds who moved faster began to rush out of the forest, directly towards what he was finally accumulating. Thousands of strong orcs smashed into the formation, causing their formation to become loose and chaotic...
Slap... slap...
Boom~! Boom~! Boom~!
While the tree people rushed into the second half of the strong orc army, in the distance, the gunpowder weapons of those musketeers from the United Kingdom of Alicia and more artillery troops began to roar, and countless shells and bullets directly The forward of the advancing strong orc army gave a stop, and instantly set off a storm of blood!
"Tree people! How dare you?!"
Feeling that at this time, the tree-herders in the Fargon Forest dare to come out and add to the chaos, Saruman immediately became annoyed! He decided: He would use a wide range of fire spells to kill all the treants who dared to enter the attack range of the Eisinger Oshank Tower, leaving none!
"what?!"
"Little girl! How dare you appear in my mage tower?!"
Only when he thought that he was about to do it, Saruman raised his black staff bitterly. He just turned around and was about to walk back into the tower, and he suddenly discovered that in the middle of his main control room, there was a little girl sneaking up. Picked up his crystal ball of true knowledge? Then, for a while, I didn't know where she was stuffed into and disappeared? !
"Shameful thief! Give me back my crystal!"
Seeing that his precious crystal ball had been inexplicably changed by the opponent, Saruman yelled abruptly under his canthus, and then shook his hand fiercely. The black staff appeared at the head of the staff. A thick lightning struck straight towards the opponent's face.
Crackling!
The electric snake flashed past, and after only a muffled noise, it disappeared on a transparent shield around the little girl.
"Crystal ball?"
"I didn't see a crystal ball! I don't know what you were talking about just now! Look, how could I hide a crystal ball that is so hot?
Annie herself is a very honest little girl, and now she hasn't seen any true knowledge crystal ball!
Like the kind of treasure that can easily see all parts of the entire Middle-earth Continent without using any force, once in her pocket, how could she return it? nonexistent!
She might want to take it back and reward Ofina in her family so that the other party can more easily lay down this Middle-earth world for herself?
"Huh! Stupid little witch! I will make you regret coming to my Osanco tower!"
Seeing that ordinary spells didn't seem to work for the little girl, he gathered more mana on the spot, and at the same time opened all the restrictions in the tower, intending to suppress this to the maximum while enhancing his strength. The magic power of the little witch!
"You will soon discover that within this mage tower of mine, your power will be severely suppressed! Then... you will regret being an enemy of me!"
This little girl, if he were elsewhere, he thought he might not have been able to beat her, but, within this Osanco tower, he had an absolute home court advantage!
"Huh? Are you talking about the faint suppression? They are of little use to me!"
"Forget it, then I won't do anything at all? Because, I didn't come by myself today! Come out, Tibbers, kill him!"
"No! I caught him!"
Tilting her head and looking at the old man in white robe who was guiding the spell, Annie didn't even attack him, but threw out the little bear in her hand.
Because, she plans to catch alive today, catch this old man with white beard in white clothes!
Roar! !
Tibbers, the toy bear, suddenly became huge after leaving Annie's hand.
Then, while Saruman was stunned, a giant toy bear full of dark red flames suddenly appeared in the main control hall of the Osank Tower, scaring the opposite Saruman hand. The last shivering, immediately blasted the unfinished lightning spell at the giant flame bear!
(...)
(Little Master Anne, this place is too small, and it’s too small to use its full strength... What should I do if I accidentally kill it?
Tibbs waved his paw, patted a black mark on his chest that was exploded by the opponent's lightning, and then mumbled to Annie in private.
Its current height is almost reaching the top of this hall. When fighting here, it has no room to move or move. It can't run even if it wants to run. Maybe, if you are not careful, you will burn the opponent to death. Up? )
"Anyway, he can't beat you, hurry up and catch him!"
"If you accidentally beat you to death, I will lock you up and make the second fool into a toy!"
Annie didn't care about the complaints of this smelly bear, and quickly pointed at the white-robed Saruman who was surprised and ordered Tibbers.
Originally, she also wanted Tibbers to directly kill the opponent with a single paw!
However, when she knew that this old white beard had an army of at least tens of thousands, and she seemed to know how to squeeze that kind of strong orc in batches, Annie felt that it might be better if she caught the opponent alive?
"..."
When Annie gave orders to Tibbers, Saruman, who had seen the bad news, was already secretly backing away.
He is not stupid. If the opponent is outside the Mage Tower, he dare to use his home court advantage to force the little girl and her magic pet! However, since the opponent has sneaked into his main control room now and released such a powerful monster, he does not intend to fight the opponent here!
After all, although there is a way to suppress the little witch, he has no good way for the flame monster that is obviously a melee type!
Now Isinger, there is a tree man taking the opportunity to make trouble, and the little girl and her pet are constraining him inside. Saruman feels that he can't stay here anymore? Therefore, he can only decide with grief and angrily: first think of a way to retreat here, and after saving his life, think of other ways?
"what?!"
When Saruman sneaked back and moved to the platform where he was just now, a heat wave suddenly hit from behind, scared him to rush towards a corner on the left and dodge it dangerously. That kind of deadly flame!
Then, when he turned his head and looked over for the first time, he found out that, outside of his mage tower, there was a flame demon that was equally huge and covered in flames. On the outer wall of the Osanco Tower?
Moreover, at this time, it was using its huge head to block the exit of the platform, as if it wanted to see where this white-robed wizard was hiding?
"This is, Balrog...?!"
Saruman had no idea, how could there be a Balrog here first? How did it get here?
Moreover, this Balrog seems to be an accomplice of this little witch? How can this be! Saruman knows ~EbookFREE.me~ Since Gandalf is still alive, shouldn't it have been killed by the gray-robed old man? !
"That's not a fire demon, that's my second black! Of course, you can also call it a second fool!"
The flame demon is so ugly!
Little Annie felt that the two names she had given to her, Erfool or Erhei, would be more cordial. It's a pity that she used to be beaten to death by the stinky smell of her pulling cart. Otherwise, can she let it out now and meet her brother Erhei?
"Look! You can't escape now, can you? Would you like to surrender quickly? Or, want to continue fighting?"
While talking, Annie sat straight on the stone platform where the True Knowledge Crystal was just placed, and looked at Saruman, who was forced into a corner by her little bear Tibbers and the Balrog lying outside. , Asked with a tentative smile.
At this time, there were more intense guns and angry roars of tree people. Those tree people, and those big trees that move, plus the troops of the United Kingdom of Alicia, seemed to have attacked Ai. Inside Singer's wall?
