legend begins with lord of the rings
229: Battle of Helm's Deep (1)
"Report, Osgiliath is under attack again..."
A messenger hurried in.
"What, these damn orcs..." Faramir turned around and walked out: "Gather the team and get ready to go~"
When passing by Frodo, Faramir patted the hobbit on the shoulder and whispered: "You should leave quickly, the border of Gondor is no longer safe."
After everyone in the cave left, Sam breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Frodo, who was holding the Ring tightly, and asked, "Do you know the way to Mount Doom?"
Frodo shook his head, thinking of Hulu who had escaped from the battle.
The two of them were packing their packages in a dull manner when they suddenly heard a loud shout from the cave.
"What happened?" Sam asked in surprise.
Without waiting for Frodo to answer, Sam shouldered the package and ran out of the cave with him.
Outside the cave, the Ringwraiths were riding dark dragons, circling in the sky. The warriors of Gondor were hiding in all directions.
"Be careful and stay hidden, leave to the path~" Faramir stared angrily at the flying dragon in the sky and shouted to the Gondor warriors.
"That's the Ringwraith, it's monitoring the movements of the soldiers." Frodo saw the figure on the back of the flying dragon that frightened him.
"Why are you still here..." Faramir risked being discovered and pulled the two hobbits into the bushes: "Quickly leave..."
"We want one too, but we don't know the way to Mount Doom." Sam whispered.
Faramir saw that the expressions of the two hobbits did not seem to be fake. His face darkened and he said: "If you cross this bush, you will see a pool. After you get there, to the northeast is Mount Doom.
"
"Thank you~" x2
The two hobbits thanked them and walked deeper into the bushes.
"I wish you good luck. I hope my brother's choice is right." Faramir muttered quietly as he looked at the leaving hobbits, and then chased after the large army.
The two hobbits got through the bushes with many small wounds on their bodies from the thorns.
They listened to the sound of water and came to the pond.
Before the two of them were happy that they had found the right path, they saw a thin figure emerging from the pool.
"That's Gollum, damn, I'm going to teach it a lesson..." Sam walked toward the pool angrily.
"Wait, we need it..." Frodo grabbed his friend.
So, the two hobbits stood by the pool, looking at the snoring below.
Gulu held a fish in his hand and was about to put the fish into his mouth. Suddenly the fish struggled twice and its head hit Gulu's nose hard.
"You deserve to die... you all deserve to die..."
Gulu angrily threw the fish on the rock, and kept cursing at the same time.
Even when he was smashed to pieces, the expression on Gulu's face became more and more ferocious.
"Gulu~"
Frodo was frightened by Gollum's expression and stopped him from continuing to abuse the fish.
"It's the master...it's the master's voice..."
Gollum threw the fish away and looked around excitedly. Finally, he looked up and saw the two hobbits above.
"Master... Gollum knew you would be fine..." Gollum jumped onto the rock and reached Frodo's side in a few seconds.
When he saw the look in Frodo's eyes, Gollum took two steps back, hit his head on the ground, and cried bitterly: "The bad Gollum abandoned his master, and Gollum didn't want to do that. Gollum was very scared..."
"Okay Gollum, I don't blame you..." Frodo stopped Gollum from grabbing the ground with his head and said: "You are our partner, we need you."
"Really, master doesn't blame Gulu..." Gulu said pitifully.
"Yes, we don't blame you." Frodo nodded and said, "We still want to go to Mount Doom together..."
Sam watched Gollum's every move from the sidelines, feeling that he was still acting. But in order to allow Frodo to reach Mount Doom, he said nothing.
After some reconciliation, Gollum took the two hobbits and continued on the road to Mount Doom.
On the other side of Rohan, after two days of work, the walls of Xiakou Fortress have been repaired.
The number of adventurers who have arrived one after another in the past two days has reached about 50,000.
Including Rohan's more than 20,000 guards, there are now nearly 80,000 human warriors gathered in Xiakou Fortress.
In the hall of Gap Fortress at this moment, Theoden, Abel, Gandalf, Aragorn and others were sitting.
They were discussing how to stop the orcs' attack.
Abel advocated ambushing a group of warriors outside Helm's Deep. If necessary, everyone could go out of the city to meet the enemy and cooperate with the warriors outside.
However, Théoden believed that everyone should occupy the ground and keep the enemy outside the city wall.
The two argued for a long time, but neither could convince the other.
"Report~Saruman's troops are gathering towards Helm's Deep." A scout suddenly ran into the hall.
"How many are there?" Théoden asked.
"I don't know exactly, but the number of orcs gathered outside Helm's Deep now exceeds 100,000," the scout replied.
"What!" Théoden stood up: "Why are there so many orcs?"
The faces of other people in the hall also became ugly.
Adventurers have been arriving in the past two days, which made everyone think that this battle would be easy. However, they did not expect that the number of enemies was even greater.
"I know Saruman. He used magic to create strong orcs, and they reproduce very quickly." Gandalf said, "If we give him a period of time, our enemies will only increase."
After listening to the wizard's words, Théoden finally couldn't sit still. He stood up and walked towards the city wall.
Along the way, the Rohan warriors and well-equipped adventurers were ready to go, which gave the old king some confidence.
Arriving at the city gate, Théoden touched the solid city wall, and his face regained its former confidence: "This fortress has blocked Rohan's enemies many times. I believe we can also keep the orcs out of the city wall this time."
"That's not necessarily true." Jin Pei knocked on the city wall with an ax and said, "If this was a city built by dwarves, I would be very confident in it. But these walls are obviously not strong enough.
I think Mr. Abel is right, we should go out of the city to meet the enemy. Let those strong orcs not dare to approach the city wall..."
Jin Pei obviously questioned the strength of the Xiakou Fortress.
"I have experienced hundreds of battles, and I know how to defeat the enemy, the dwarf~" Théoden looked at Jin Boli with dissatisfaction.
Facing Théoden's gaze, the dwarf just shrugged indifferently, and then looked at Abel aside.
As the conversation progressed, everyone's eyes also turned to Abel.
"I think you should listen to Abel's opinion." Gandalf stood up at this time.
Theoden observed everyone's expressions, and finally he also looked at Abel.
In any case, whether this battle can be won or not mainly depends on the number of adventurers who have more people.
