The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth

After staying in the dwarf Irub for a few days, Roland took the light infantry who exchanged shotguns for cannons and carried dozens of carts of supplies and left with satisfaction. Because Thorin knew about the orcs' changes, he generously gave these away. After all, Roland is the most important barrier in the south of Erub. Thorin could still tell which one was more important, because the last battle on Gushan caused the two orc leaders to escape. After they had been dormant for a few days, they were a little ready to make a move again.

"I hope there won't be any problems in the north..." Roland glanced sadly at River Valley City and Erub. Although many wandering dwarves from the Blue Mountains have returned, there are still less than 5,000 dwarves in Erub City. Winter blocks Most of the dwarves are returning home, but there are still too few of them. The orcs in Gambada will definitely come out in force next time! And Azog, who has gained wisdom through every experience, will definitely bring a heavy crossbow, so that Kasluo can't kill the orcs unscrupulously... Roland, the woodland elf in the dark forest, doesn't even want to say it, this old thing Thranduil If you can take the initiative to help humans and dwarves, you are so haunted! Didn’t you see that during the War of the Lord of the Rings, the defense of Vale City broke out in the north. King Bard’s grandson and the dwarf king Dain died outside the city of Erub... Where are the elves?

The elves are unreliable, Thorin and Bard will be dragged to the north, leaving only himself and the White Wing King in the south. Maybe it’s time to visit the White Wing King! Roland thought in his mind.

After Roland turned his head and saw the light infantry who had exchanged shotguns for cannons, he felt a little more at ease. Even if it was really impossible, Roland would lead the soldiers and send the people to the west of the Misty Mountains. He would decisively abandon Rapid City. After all, the king The crown is crowned by the people under his command. Is a king still a king without his people?

Looking at the childish faces of the light infantry recruits behind him, Roland felt unbearable. These armed civilians were all young children, no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, and he would lead them to death... ...At this moment, Roland seemed to see the infantrymen rushing upstream... At that moment, they probably wanted to live too...

"Kaslo, go back and train them well. I don't expect them to take the lead bravely, but I hope they can protect themselves during defense." Roland glanced at the young faces and said to Kaslo gently.

"Don't worry, sir! They will grow up!" Kaslo assured.

"But there is no time for them to grow up..." Roland lowered his head.

…

"King, the White Wing King opposite invited you to be a guest. He said he wanted to discuss important matters related to the survival of the two cities!" Roland, who had just returned, was stopped by Renault.

"Did they say what happened?" Roland asked curiously.

"They seemed to have had a fight with the orcs!" Renault thought for a moment and replied.

"Okay, prepare the boat, let's cross the river!" Roland immediately became energetic when he heard about the orcs.

…

Accompanied by Renault and the El Niño rangers, Roland set foot on the land on the west bank. After walking for a few minutes, he was attracted by the wooden and stone city wall in the distance.

"Are they so fast?" Roland turned to Renault and sighed in surprise.

"Well, King, it is easy to build a city wall with a wood and stone structure. With so many people, they can quickly build it by cutting down more trees." Renault explained, after all, the city wall here does not have much technical content. After all, in the magical world, The city wall can be built by a mage. There is no need to build the city with rammed earth like the blue star where Roland is. Just cut off a piece of the tall trees in the dark forest, sharpen one end and insert it into the soil, and then weave all the wooden stakes with ropes. Finally, The outer wall is ready after smearing mud on the outside and drying it. Immediately put up some wooden frames and lay out planks. This is the simplest city wall.

"Oh! That's it!" When Roland thought of the thick walls of his Rapid City made of magic stone bricks, he immediately felt balanced. Wherever the defense is placed, just slow down.

"Boom!" The soldiers standing guard at the city gate immediately beat their chests and saluted when they saw the royal flag fluttering in the wind behind Roland.

"Welcome! King Roland! I'm sorry that Wangjia has something to do and can't come to greet you in person." A man who looked like a butler came up to him immediately.

"Long wait." Roland bowed.

"It's an honor to serve you!" The butler who greeted him bowed.

"Take me to see the White Winged King, I want to know what happened!" Roland's eyes flashed with solemnity. He had just clearly felt the smell of blood in the air...it was human blood! Only when there are a large number of wounded can there be such a strong smell of blood.

"Hello! King Roland, I'm sorry that I can't entertain you now!" Bai Yi saw Roland coming from the corner of his eye, but his hand movements did not stop at all.

"Dragon God! What happened!" Renault's eyes widened. There were more than a hundred wounded people lying under the wooden shed in front of him. Bai Yi and others were changing dressings and bandages for them, and taking care of the wounded people. Carry it into a tent or cabin.

"What happened?" Roland narrowed his eyes, feeling uneasy in his heart.

"Our cavalry going south for reconnaissance was attacked! A massive ambush by thousands of orcs! We lost more than a hundred people!" Baiyi gritted his teeth and said. Originally, he didn't have many cavalry, but now half of them were lost.

"Impossible! The Orcs of Dol Guld are no longer capable of launching large-scale attacks!" Roland asserted. After all, the Orcs of Dol Guld were the only army that was completely wiped out during the Battle of Gushan, with nearly 20,000 people. They all died on the battlefield. Roland didn't believe that the orcs would be able to attack immediately. How could the scars be healed after just a few days?

"King! You should take a look at this!" Renault casually pulled a piece of rag aside, which was covered with the ghost-like totems of the orcs.

"My soldiers brought this back!" Bai Yi glanced at it and said casually.

"Is there a problem?" In Roland's eyes, all the orc flags looked the same.

"It's a big problem! No! It should be a big problem!" Renault swallowed.

"This is not the orc totem of Dol Guldur! I have never seen these signs! They come from the orcs further south..."

"Mordor!" Renault and Roland both raised their heads and shuddered in unison.

"Is it urgent to move now?" Roland asked weakly.

"Damn it! How could Mordor care about this place! We are in the north!" Renault said frantically.

"Damn..." Roland secretly cursed his bad luck. The orcs in Dol Guldur were Sauron's bastards. He and others broke Sauron's plan. How could Sauron not react? These thousands of orcs should be the reinforcements supported by Mordor, and it is very likely that there are more orcs behind.

"Have the orcs from the south stretched out their claws?" Bai Yi said with a frosty look on his face.

"Well, darkness is about to cover the north, and we are the last defenders..." Roland took a deep breath.

"I will wait for them here! Right here! This is the city of Los Sanniers of the Kaden tribe! This is our home! We will fight to the death until the last moment!" Bai Yi roared angrily and left here. His people really had nowhere to go, so they migrated across the Misty Mountains in the winter. They were either mentally disabled or had cerebral palsy. Carrying baggage, young and old, they couldn't go very far before they were separated, surrounded, and swallowed up by the orcs.

"Then be careful! I will light the beacon if necessary! My soldiers will come to support you. I am going to Gushan to find the dwarves. I have to inform them of this news!" Roland warned Bai Yi and left Luo Sheng. Nier City, he now needs to quickly tell Bard, Thorin, Dain and Thranduil the news!

The whole north is in danger!
