The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth

Chapter 668 War begins

Two days have passed, and the scattered dragon knights and flying dragon knights on Roland's side have just gathered. As a result, news of the battle came from Apophis Breo's side.

However, Apophis Breo was not panicked. On the contrary, he told Roland that there was no rush for reinforcements and that he would prepare them first before moving on. Why? Of course it’s because of the deep valley behind! After the elves in Rivendell learned that there was actually a human leader in the north to take the beating for them, King Elrond directly sent 500 elite elven rangers to support with a wave of his hand. After all, even the Beorn people knew that Gambada Fortress had sent troops. , and there was no response from the Riven Valley who was paying attention to Sauron's minions. It can only be said that the elf took out his anger with his eyes.

The result was that Apophis Breo didn't think about the elves at all, but the elves sent reinforcements and stationed themselves at the eastern pass while the entire Lion Territory people looked surprised. Then Apophis Breo received the leader of the elf army, Linde, with a confused look on his face...yes, the adjutant of Elrond who was hammered into a pig's head by Roland outside Rivendell.

Immediately afterwards, the orc vanguard wolf cavalry arrived on the battlefield, which made Apophis Breo take a high look at the elves. The timing was perfect!

The orc vanguard wolf cavalry rushed over with murderous intent, but they only saw the deserted Lion Territory and a tall pass. As for the Lion Territory, there was naturally nothing. Apophis Breo said nothing else, but the strong wall and clearing the wilderness were for fun. Very six! Evacuate everything that can be moved in the Lions territory! Moreover, the well was sealed improperly, leaving only a sewage channel for the wolf cavalry to look at each other. If it were not for the fragrance of fresh wood stubble in the entire building in the Lion Territory, the orcs would even think that this thing was an abandoned building. A long-lasting human town.

Now that you’re here, you definitely want to do one! The half-orc wolf cavalry turned around and charged towards King's Landing Fortress without saying a word...

The whole scene can be said to make Apophis Breo's brain shrink. Whose cavalry has nothing to do to attack the fortress? Well, Apophis Breo looked at the wolf cavalry who jumped seven or eight meters high and then looked at the city wall that he had raised to 7 meters and immediately became panicked.

It doesn't matter, the elves will take action! Linde and his men shot back at the orc vanguard three times. The wolf cavalry flying in the sky were more like targets. After hundreds of "little flying wolves" died, Apophis Breo finally breathed. After taking a breath, he suppressed the idea of ​​frantically asking for help. After several rounds of fighting, Apophis Breo felt relieved. After all, those half-orc wolf cavalry were just like that. He even gave Roland some help in his spare time. A magic communication was sent, which was why Roland was asked not to come in a hurry.

…

"Your Highness, our troops are now stretched thin. If your reinforcements don't come, we will be in trouble!" Linde grinned as he looked at the orc infantry that had begun to appear. After all, those wolf cavalry would jump up as targets, but the infantry began to attack. Those jumping wolf cavalry behind the city are not necessarily targets!

"Don't worry, reinforcements are on the way!" Apophis Breo nodded. He had his own selfish motives. After all, the more blood the elves shed, the less blood the kingdom would shed. He couldn't rush the king for the sake of the elves. After all, let him It would be better for the elves to hold Leko for a while than to let the king's army do it. However, what Apophis Breo didn't know was that Roland had no intention of sending an army at all, but only sent some top soldiers and high-end combat power.

"I hope so! If things go wrong, I will lead soldiers to cover the evacuation of the people!" Linde did not completely believe the human noble in front of him. After all, human beings all have eight hundred tricks. It turns out that Apophis Breo is indeed a bit small. thought.

"Thank you very much for your help!" Apophis Breo couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. This elf is so kind! He actually knew how to cover the evacuation of the people! For a moment, Apophis Breo felt a little guilty. After all, he could say that he had tricked the elf.

"They are coming!" Lind suddenly exclaimed, interrupting Apophis Breo's thoughts.

"Roar! Charge forward! Kill all those weak insects!" the orc roared.

"Kill! For Lord Angmar!"

"charge!"

The orcs carried a simple ladder and rushed towards the fortress in a dark way, which made the Fenwu warriors on the top of the city couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"What is that? Light armored troops?" Apophis Breo narrowed his eyes. Apparently he realized that these were not the heavily armored Orcs in the intelligence.

"It's the elite Orc forwards! Their appearance means that there are elite heavily armed Orcs not far behind!" Linde frowned.

"Kill them first!" Apophis Breo was not used to these orcs. Since he was wearing light armor, he had to be aware of light armor! If you rush to die, you will definitely have to do it!

"Fire arrows!" Apophis Breo waved his hand, and the sparse arrow rain began to cover it. Except for the warriors holding crossbows who could neatly clear an area, the rest were mobilized militiamen. There are probably only a thousand or so of these young men, and the lions basically take all the labor! They hold hunting bows or hunting crossbows and throw them at will. Although the lethality is not as good as military weapons, why do they need to be so particular when dealing with lightly armored troops? Moreover, the random flying arrows put more psychological pressure on the orcs. After all, arrows coming from nowhere are even more frightening.

"Fire arrows!" Linde was not polite and directly commanded the elves to divide into two teams. He used the battle formation shooting method that made the orcs' eyesight black. After one team finished shooting, they quickly retreated and the other team stepped forward to shoot, and then alternated. Going back and forth, he used arrows to draw a death zone 300 meters directly in front of the fortress. Almost no orcs could cross the 300-meter line, and even if there were fish that slipped through the net, they would be quickly shot by the Fenwu warriors.

"Doo! Duo! Duo!" The orcs also started to fight back, but Apophis Breo, who was prepared in advance, sneered and asked the militiamen to stop shooting and raise their shields to defend themselves. It is more appropriate to say that it is a shield than a city gate board... This The shield, which required three people to carry, directly blocked the heads of the warriors and elves, making the orc's projectile a joke for a while.

"Poof!" There was a sound of a sharp arrow piercing the flesh, and a Fenwu warrior fell to the ground. It turned out that an orc archer killed the soldier with one arrow.

"Puff!" The next second, the half-orc professional who showed up was instantly locked by the elves, and he was shot down and turned into a hedgehog.

"Get down! Don't show your head!" Apophis Breo said to the militiamen. Many militiamen and warriors were shot down by orc shooters. Apparently Apophis Breo couldn't bear to consume his youth like this. , he directly ordered the soldiers and militiamen to squat and hide behind battlements and obstacles to launch.

Lind glanced at Apophis Breo and did not blame or laugh at the cowardice of this human lord. After all, this was the wise move. How many people could he exchange for the lives of orcs? However, Linde also knew that he could no longer play platoon shooting. He did not hesitate to disband the ranger groups and let them disperse on the fortress to guerrilla. Although the pressure of the overall formation shooting was lost, the scattered rangers were able to kill. The effect is actually higher than before!
