Develop the world from one person

"If Gondor asked Guo Yi to buy weapons, or hired Guo Yi's army, then we wouldn't be so uncomfortable."

Elrond and the others looked at Guo Yi, who was smiling and silent, and said helplessly: "Denethor not only drove away Guo Yi's people, but also wanted to seize Guo Yi's plane..."

"..."

Dain was stunned for a moment, and then he and Gandalf laughed bitterly.

With Denethor's behavior, it was obvious that he had fallen out with Guo Yi.

Falling out with Guo Yi means that Guo Yi cannot help the Kingdom of Gondor against Sauron...

Unless, add money?

If Gondor did not have the help of Guo Yi and the support of the Kingdom of Rohan, then its best outcome would probably be to perish together with Sauron's army to the south.

It's impossible for Gondor to hold on tenaciously, right?

If Gondor had this strength, Sauron would not be as powerful as he is now!

At the same time, if the northern kingdom does not want to be attacked by Sauron's army from the southeast, it can only hire Guo Yi's army to defend the southern front.

How expensive would it be to let Guo Yi's army fight alone against Sauron's army in the south?

River Valley City can develop thanks to the support of Gushan.

Although the woodland kingdom of the Black Forest is not terribly poor, it is just a drop in the bucket compared to the treasures of the Lonely Mountain.

As for the family of skin-changers who live in Kar Rock, ensuring the free passage of the road between the Misty Mountains and the Black Forest, and charging high tolls...

They don't even have a town, just a few wooden houses. You can imagine how much money they have.

Apart from these few forces, there is no need to forget the other bits and pieces.

So here comes the question, are Dain's Lonely Mountain dwarves going to be flanked by Sauron's army from the south and east?

Or should we pay a high fee to ask Guo Yi to defend, or defeat Sauron's army to the south?

At this time, Dain finally understood why Gandalf and Elrond looked at him with distressed eyes.

He was actually the one being taken advantage of!?

For a moment, Dain wanted to tell everyone: Please pretend that he has never been here...

"I think we should have a good chat with the Regent of Gondor!"

Dain thought again and again, and then said to Elrond and the others: "If the regent is really so stubborn, then let's help the king of Gondor return!"

As long as they sign a contract with the King of Gondor before his return, requiring him to immediately hire Guo Yi's army to help defend him after he becomes the King of Gondor, then the Kingdom of Gondor will be able to resist Sauron's southern army and create a solid foundation for the northern army.

War buys time.

As for the money, it must come from Gondor.

If he doesn't agree, then change his royal bloodline and become the King of Gondor...

It’s impossible for all the royal bloodline to disagree, or are they all dead?

If the bloodline of Gondor's royal family was really extinct, then the regent would have become the king of Gondor long ago.

Since the regent is not the king, there must still be royal blood.

If all the royal bloodline disagrees, then Daine will accept it.

Gondor loves so much...

Anyway, Gushan can’t afford the contract...

"well……"

A hint of disgust flashed across Gandalf's expression, and he said helplessly: "To be honest, I don't want to go to Gondor right now."

After a pause, Gandalf continued without waiting for anyone else to ask: "However, there is indeed a descendant in Gondor who is qualified to become the king of Gondor."

"Then what are we waiting for?"

Dain's eyes lit up and he waved his hammer excitedly: "We will set off to Gondor immediately.

I don’t believe it, so many of us can’t convince him!”

"..."

"Report."

Gondor, inside the royal palace on the top floor of Minas Tirith.

At this time, Denethor was eating his dinner quietly, and a guard rushed in shouting: "The flying thing that sent Boromir back before is here again.

Gandalf and two elves and a dwarf came down from above."

"..."

Denethor stopped his hand and crushed the fruit in his hand angrily: "Mithrandil...

This time, I want to see what conspiracy you are planning to play."

"..."

"Lord Denethor, son of Ecthelion, regent of Gondor..."

Gandalf led Elrond and the others into the palace, greeting Denethor with some false enthusiasm.

However, Denethor looked at Gandalf with a sneer: "Mithrandil, why are you doing this?"

"..."

After Gandalf heard Denethor address him, he felt secretly unhappy.

Mithrandir is an Elvish language, meaning gray-robed saint.

In Gondor, this is how Gandalf is called by humans who have status and understand Elvish.

And this is exactly why Gandalf is unhappy with the current Gondor.

Pride and prejudice, arrogance and arrogance permeate the entire Gondor.

"The war is about to break out, and the enemy's army will approach the city in the near future."

Gandalf suppressed his dissatisfaction and said calmly: "In order to fight Sauron's army, we must join forces.

Why do you want to..."

"Mithrandil, you think you are very smart."

Denethor interrupted Gandalf and sneered at him: "But at most you are only a little smart.

You want to use me to fight Sauron, and at the same time you want to get rid of me, do you think I can’t guess what you’re thinking?”

After a pause, Denethor stood up and looked at the others arrogantly: "Elf?

dwarf?

Kingdom of Rohan?

All of you are afraid that Gondor will become powerful again, so you want Gondor to confront Sauron head-on.

Until then, you can step on the ruins of Minas Ithil, look at Mordor in the distance, and pray that Sauron's army will disappear!"

"I also faced Sauron head-on, don't think you're the only one!"

Dain saw Denethor's arrogant look and roared at him: "My kingdom under the mountain is also confronting Sauron head-on!"

"King of the Kingdom under the Mountain, Dain!?"

Denethor looked at Dyne with a sneer: "You can't even defeat the army led by the Nazgul!

In Gondor, under the gaze of Sauron's evil eye, Sauron's army was blocked by us on the east bank of the Anduin River, unable to set foot on the west bank!

Is this what you call confronting Sauron head-on?"

"you……"

Dain was so angry at Denethor's words that the hair on his beard froze. However, Gandalf stopped him and continued to say to Denethor: "Even if you are not for us, as the regent, you should not

Protect the people of Gondor?

Why don't you join forces with us and insist on fighting Sauron alone?"

"Join forces?"

Denethor said disdainfully: "Then give me that flying thing instead of asking me to hire or buy weapons from people of unknown origin!"

"..."

Denethor's words made everyone look at him speechlessly.

With this short conversation, Gandalf and the others immediately gave up trying to persuade Denethor.

It doesn't make sense, it's unclear.

"I'm taking Aragorn away!"

Gandalf looked at Denethor and said seriously: "He is a descendant of Isildur. You have no right and cannot imprison him!"

"Can."

Denethor sneered and said leisurely: "As long as you promise that he will never enter Gondor's territory again, you can take him away."

"Denethor, you have gone too far!"

Gandalf looked at Denethor angrily and shouted to him: "You have no right to restrict his movements, and you can't prevent him from ever entering Gondor's territory!"

Denethor looked at Gandalf coldly and said with murderous intent: "Then the next time he enters the territory of Gondor, it will be the day of his death!"

"..."

Gandalf took a deep look at Denethor, then turned and left.

Denethor looked at the backs of Gandalf and the others and laughed disdainfully.
