End of the Sky (Multiverse's End)

Essinger!

The fortress defending the Aisin River uses the mountain as a natural barrier on one side, and erects high walls on the other three sides for defense.

Strictly speaking, Isengard is a fortress under the jurisdiction of Gondor, but Saruman begged it from the regent, and it has since become a symbol of his identity.

As long as Isinger is mentioned, everyone in Middle-earth will immediately think of the white robe Saruman. As the head of the Five Witches, his reputation was pushed to the peak, crushing the other four combined by Gandalf.

"Nursed by the Aisin River, there are a lot of trees and grassland here, and it is a green and comfortable home, but Saruman destroyed them, and many people died because of it..."

Treebeard showed sadness. The tree people once believed in the white robe Saruman, but they were brutally persecuted. Their bodies were cut off and ignited, turning into raging flames forging swords and armor.

Essinger in front of him fits the description of Treebeard, the lush green has become a thing of the past, it is a mess, and the pits left by the uprooted giant trees can be seen everywhere.

The devastated scene seems to be an ugly scar in the middle of the mountains. Saruman's violent soldiers can clearly see the damage to the environment.

"Ho Ho Ho—"

When everyone came to the gate of the fortress, what greeted them was the corpses of orc deserters all over the ground. Hundreds of wolf cavalry drank blood from their knives and roared at the army.

The half-orcs stationed in Essinger brandished their swords to demonstrate, and the wargs under their crotch were restless, walking back and forth in place, their eyes flickering fiercely, stimulated by the smell of blood, and became extremely violent.

Unwilling to surrender, Saruman wants to fight one last time!

The Rohan cavalry drew their swords and raised their spears to charge. Gandalf stopped them and said to Theoden: "Isengard can only outsmart, not attack by force. Too much blood was shed in the Battle of Helm's Deep, and we cannot attack." Let the soldiers continue to sacrifice."

Theoden originally wanted to say that not many defenders of the Horn Fort died, and that the soldiers and horses of Rohan were still strong, but Gandalf said that they could be outsmarted, so it is better to outsmart them.

"How to outsmart?"

"I have arranged for Treebeard's tribe to go to Maxidras Peak. We just need to wait quietly. At that time, the flood will submerge Isengard, defeat Saruman's last army, and then the Rohan army will reap the victory." Gandalf Zhi Zhu held her hand, and stroked her white beard with a smile.

Essinger Fortress is easy to defend and difficult to attack, at least for humans, but its weakness is also extremely fatal. Gandalf planned it ten years ago... Ahem, Gandalf was thinking hard on the way when he came, and he had an idea A move came up with a plan to flood the fortress.

"Gandalf is also a mage. Saruman is far behind you in leading an army in battle. He only uses numbers to suppress, without the artistic beauty of war." Theoden clapped his hands in praise after hearing Gandalf's narration.

"Hehe, King Theoden is serious. I'm just a little quick-witted. It's far worse than your Hussar King's ability to lead an army in battle." Gandalf stroked his beard more vigorously, and this was the script he wanted.

"Where is it, you are the best!"

"Humbled!"

"Everyone is amazing, hahaha——"

"Hahaha----"

The two bad old men bragged about each other for business, and they lost their faces. Russell felt extremely contemptuous. Saruman only uses numbers to suppress and has no sense of artistic beauty in war. Is this a human word?

Generals who are good at leading and fighting all know that it is king to overwhelm the number of people, and it is the worst strategy to use tricks and tricks to defeat the strong with the weak.

Han Xin ordered troops, the more the better, the way to victory in the hearts of top generals is very simple, that is, more people!

Russell knew in his heart that the two bad old men understood this truth, but who made Saruman an enemy now, it was impossible to flatter him, and he could only be criticized as a brain-dead flatterer.

Rumble———

In the distant mountains, the gate was destroyed by the tree man, and a huge amount of water rushed out, with rumbling momentum, forming a series of superimposed violent torrents, sweeping down with a force of destruction.

The flood was unstoppable, and the soil and rocks collapsed and uprooted, mixed in the torrential flood, turning into a natural disaster like a tsunami,

The horror of nature is fully demonstrated at this moment.

Rumble! ! !

Except for Essinger, who felt the vibration under his feet, the two parties behaved differently.

The faces of the half-orc wolf cavalry were pale, and all of them had no intention of fighting when the catastrophe came.

"Warriors of Rohan, follow me to overcome the obstacles ahead, cut off the heads of the orcs, and pay homage to the dead heroes of the Horn Fort."

"Kill! Kill! Kill—"

The Rohan cavalry and the tree men raised their arms and shouted, followed Theoden and charged with their swords. 2,000 iron hooves trampled down, beheading less than 300 wolf cavalry under their horses.

Take it away in a wave, simple and rude, at this time, Theoden didn't mention the art of war anymore!

In Essinger, the raging torrent was unstoppable, submerging Saruman's underground arsenal, and thousands of orc defenders were drowned by the torrent without even a wave.

The terrifying amount of water flooded the underground base of the Essinger Fortress, and even knocked down all the superstructures, and the flood reached the waist of ordinary people.

This is a height that is very unfriendly to dwarves. Fortunately, there are several gates in the city wall of the fortress, which constantly vent the torrent. Otherwise, Jinli's impressive height would be floating after a while after entering.

"Be careful, even if Essinger is destroyed by the flood, as long as Saruman is still alive, it will still be one of the most dangerous fortresses in Middle-earth."

Gandalf sat on Treebeard's shoulders and led the way by lighting up the lighting technique. The Fellowship of the Ring team rode treants and stepped into this land of swamp.

The Rohan cavalry were ordered to garrison outside the city gate. The order came from Theoden. To deal with the unpredictable mages, the more numbers the better.

Coming under the black tower, Gandalf held up his radiant staff, and his white robe was very conspicuous, just like showing off. But this is not the case. Gandalf's white robe shines so brightly because the white does not absorb light, not forcibly showing off.

Believe it or not, Gandalf insists that he is a mature Maia, well past the age of fighting spirit, and he didn't mean to show it to Saruman.

"Saruman, how long will you hide, face your fate, and face the judgment!" Gandalf shouted, and the sound of thunder echoed endlessly, as if the entire Middle-earth continent could hear it.

As Gandalf's voice fell, Saruman's figure appeared on the top of the Black Tower, with the same white beard and hair, and also the image of a wise and handsome old man. Saruman's temperament is a bit more noble than Gandalf's.

This can be reflected from his white robe, which should be plain white without decoration, but is inlaid with luxurious gold threads and precious stones.

"Saruman, you have fallen!"

Looking at the shining Saruman, Gandalf was heartbroken, the light of his staff soared, and the white robe on his body became even brighter.

Saruman looked down and shouted angrily: "Shut up, you despicable, shameless, shameless, flattering gray robe... I have not fallen, I just found my own way in life!"
