Dragonborn from Lord of the Rings

Chapter 183 Saruman's Failure
It is said that Saruman did not expect that the West would send envoys so soon.He miscalculated the great king's wrath.When the great glory of Ionwe and Melianna, representing the blessed land of the west, descended on Isengard, Saruman became extremely terrified.

He stood restlessly on the towering platform of Orthanc, cursing angrily and speaking profane language.All the forces under his influence lined up to meet him. Among them were the orcs distorted by his secret technique, as well as a large number of wolves and many savage humans, trying to resist stubbornly.

However, the former Queen Doriath walked into the enchantment ring alone, and a blazing light erupted from her eyes and body. The power representing light and hope shook the enchantment surrounding the Nankurunil Valley. Curse belt.The mist and shadows are like boiling water, violently tumbling.

Click.

In an invisible wave, Melian untied the charm ring set up by the white-robed wizard.She was the first Maier to use the enchanted belt. Her power had protected the Kingdom of Dorias in the first era for thousands of years. The great king sent her here because she was Saruman's nemesis.

At that time, the fog and shadows dissipated, and the light of Yarien illuminated the land again, and the naked, ugly land of the South Kurunil Valley appeared in the north. In front of the allied forces with the tree people.

On the huge Isinger Plain, the Mesedras Peak in the west is like a huge sword edge, piercing the ferry of the Ising River; The Gong forest looms in the sunlight.

To the north, the dark tower of Orthanc stands tall within the circle, where countless orcs and evil humans gather.

"Attack." Turka pulled out the sword Kallasilya (meaning: splendor) made for him by the high elves, and the magnificent and slender sword shone with an unparalleled holy light.

The trumpeter blew the horn, and the standard bearer waved the king's flag. In front of the huge army formation, heralds flew back and forth, conveying the king's orders to the various armies.

The army gave out a huge, inspiring cheer.The sound was so loud that the clouds in the sky were blown away.This voice kept echoing in Isengard's stone wall, and the evil minions under Saruman's command almost all fought at each other, and their dark and vicious hearts felt the taste of fear and anxiety for the first time.

Then, fighting broke out.

Among them, the archers led by Gildor and Faramir attacked first.Following the orders of the generals, the elves and humans simultaneously let go of the bowstrings in their hands, and arrows rained down, flying into the enemy's formation.Many barbaric humans without armor were hit by overwhelming arrows and fell to the ground instantly.Some orcs in full armor also fell, but not many.

They roared like beasts, and led by a particularly tall and strong orc, they clenched their spears and scimitars tightly, and collided with the oncoming human army.

Among the generals in the west, Aragorn and Éomer, Boromir and Mormo each led a legion, and rushed into the enemy's line bravely. There was a sound of steel gnawing, swords splitting iron helmets and armor, and sharp sounds. The sound of the arrow piercing the flesh resounded through the earth.

Under the leadership of Treebeard, the tree man rushed into the enemy's formation with great strides.Their huge feet and arms are stronger than steel, and their roar is like the catharsis of giants, and almost no enemy can resist their charge.They grabbed the orcs who were twisted and mixed by the white-robed wizard, and threw them out like cannonballs. These dirty and shameless guys either fell half to death, or smashed into Isinger's cold circular wall.

There are some taciturn trees among the host of the Ents, but they are wilder and more dangerous.They are extremely powerful and extremely angry.Their fingers and toes clung to the rock so tightly, tearing apart Isinger's circular city wall like tearing bread.It was like watching a giant tree root take 100 years to split rock, all shortened to a few minutes.

Then they rushed into Essinger first.Countless orc legions were quickly destroyed like straws caught in a fire, or were swept away like dead leaves caught in a strong wind.

The few surviving survivors were also found out by the second emperor, Alatu Arakano, and killed one by one.

And some tree men pushed and pulled, pulled and shook, and beat violently, only heard a bang, bang, bang, and in less than 5 minutes, they knocked down the two doors of Essinger and smashed them to the ground. Became scrap metal.

Behind them, countless silver-white human armies poured into Isinger like a tide, sweeping away the enemies inside.They rushed into the underground pit of Isengard, ruthlessly killed all the enemies and wolves they could see, and overthrew the furnace and dark cage that Saruman built underground.

The white-robed wizard on the top of the tower shouted angrily, but it was of no avail.Without the protection of his power, the evil army under his command is no match for the northern human and tree man army at all.Even though there were more orcs and wolves than Turka expected, there were more humans and treants.And stronger.

So, a quarter of an hour after the start of the war, the battle turned overwhelmingly towards the army of humans and treants.

Seeing this, Turka immediately rode the Holy Spirit Nahar, and surrounded by the guards with Eonwe and Melian, went straight to Ou in the center of the Circus along the passageway that the tree man and Aragorn had killed. Sank.

Guards of elves and Dúnedain slashed and slaughtered among the remaining enemies and siege engines, driving them into burning ditches.The entire South Kurunil Valley was on fire, and the wolves and some humans in the Black Barbarian fled towards the Eixin River like a pack of beasts in front of a hunter.

The northern iron cavalry galloped back and forth outside the valley at will, chasing and killing the fleeing enemies, invincible.

"Saruman, come down!" Turka sat on Nahar's back and shouted to the white-robed wizard on the top of the tower: "Let's end this incident!"

At that time, Saruman was about to fall into madness, because when he stood on the towering Orthank and looked down, the army he once thought he was proud of had completely failed, and the huge Isengard Circus was full of flames With the shouting and killing, those vents and vents all over the plain began to emit fire and foul-smelling smoke, and the white and green representing light and hope flooded the darkness beyond.

He cursed the silver king loudly.He said: "Don't think I'm going to throw in the towel, King of the North! It's an unfair fight, yes, and your little brats and stupid Treants would never have been able to attack me if it weren't for the sideliness of the Mighty Ones." Down with my fortress! I am the better one, and the victory should be mine!"

At that time, the black tower of Orthanc still stood amidst the devastation, still revealing a powerful threat.It's just because the tower is very smooth and hard, and there is some kind of magic attached to it, which is an ancient and powerful magic that existed in the Middle Ages.

At the same time, Saruman also angrily accused the two envoys of the West, thinking that they ignored his achievements over the years, saying that they were just lackeys of the Mighty One.

Immediately, Eonwe uttered the horn of challenge in fury. He swung a sword shining with supreme light, smashed the iron gate of Orthanc, rushed in, and fought with Saruman.

Melian and Turka also helped.At that time, thunder and lightning flashed in the high tower, and the light splashed in all directions, and the grand roar and graceful singing sounded at the same time.

In the end, Orthanc collapsed in battle.The huge vibration and sound even reached Sivold.All forces under the control of the white robe wizard felt with horror the defeat of their allegiance to their master.

Rumors and confusion spread among these evil humans, and many began to flee.

Erkenbrand of Helm's Deep sensed the confusion and terror of the enemy.He summoned all the troops he could muster, rushed out of the Horn Fort, and defeated the black barbarian humans who besieged that place.And chased all the way west to the Eixin River.

After this battle, the Westfold region returned to the hands of Rohan.

In Essinger, the humans and treants who watched the battle did not dare to approach the huge collapsed iron tower, and they watched from a distance.

"It is a battle between the messengers of the gods, and we cannot intervene," said Treebeard.

Aragorn and they all heard that he was right.

Fortunately, the battle didn't last long. In the end, the arrogant Saruman was kicked over by Eonwe, the iron cane in his hand was broken, and the white robe and Saruman's ring that represented his identity were stripped away. The proud His face was eaten into the mud and he was tied around his neck with an iron chain.

"If you feel wronged, then you can go back and appeal to the great king." Eonwe said.

At that time, the defeated Saruman finally woke up.Shocked and frightened, he begged Eonwe for mercy, begging him to let him go for the sake of years of friends and hard work.But Aonwe said: "This is not something I can decide. The order I received is to take you back and accept the trial of the Almighty. At that time, your merits and demerits will have a fair verdict."

Only then did Saruman widen his eyes in despair, and looked at the Silver King and the two messengers from the West with resentment.

"Do you think you have won? No, this is just a skirmish before the big war, and I am just a pawn used by the enemy to delay you. Yes, I, Saruman, Lord of Essinger, Black Iron Rod The master of the master, who possesses all kinds of colors, is just a pitiful creature driven by a more powerful force!" He cursed through gritted teeth: "But don't be too happy! Because your enemies have already acted!"

"Turka Arakano, you think you are proud, and you are favored by all the gods of the West! But where you can't see, an evil force is rising, that is the ancient enemy! Isinger and his In comparison, it’s just a drop in the ocean! And Sauron is also looking for his ring. Do you think hiding him in the house of the elves can escape Sauron’s capture? No, you are wrong, your plan with Gandalf is doomed to fail ! That halfling must die!"

"His army has been dispatched, and everyone is doomed! From the mountains to the forests, without exception!"

It is said that at that time, Saruman's face turned livid, his face was contorted with anger, and his eyes glowed red.He laughed maniacally.Laughing and angrily cursing the Silver King and the Gods of the West, thinking that they too will fail like him in the near future.

At that time, neither Eonwe nor Melian spoke.

Turka was keenly aware of some secrets hidden in curse and anger from his words, which were unknown to many people at that time.

He said: "Mountain? Saruman, although you have failed, there are indeed some words worth listening to in your words. As I expected, this mountain should be east of Middle-earth. It is the home of the Dwarves. "

His face was covered with mud and his hair was disheveled, like a stray dog. Saruman, who was chained by Eonwe, immediately fell silent.

"You were once great, but the jealousy and pride in your heart made you fall." The silver king stared into Saruman's eyes, his eyes were cold and majestic: "I am not surprised by your ending, but I still want to say: what did you think? The Secret Mighty One has foreseen it! The North is not unprepared, and the Elves are not unprepared!"

"Sauron will fail, just like you today! But you are not useless, at least I know that the dwarves are in trouble, which the gods did not warn."

"Just because that is their destiny." Eonwe said: "Besides, the mighty have their own reasons for doing things. We only need to follow whatever we want, and how can we talk about it at will? Can we be more powerful than the most holy Iluvita?" and the Great King see farther?"

Turka did not speak.

But Saruman laughed loudly, and he said: "Look, these are the gods, they are high above, ignore everything, forget everything, but they want us to accept the fate they bestow on us according to their wishes."

Seeing that he was so obsessed and uttered blasphemous words, Eonwe immediately tightened the iron chain around his neck angrily, Saruman immediately let out a mournful cry, curled up on the ground like a dog, unable to speak again.

But by then many people had heard their talk.The treants and elves didn't care too much, but many of the humans became uneasy.The few dwarves in the army were even more anxious and frightened.

Turka noticed this, and he announced loudly that the battle is over and victory belongs to the light!

As a result, cheers and joy came to Isinger again, and people temporarily buried their anxiety and uneasiness in their hearts, enjoying the sweetness and beauty of victory.

"Wan Sheng!"

Tens of thousands of troops cheered together.The sound shook the world.

At the same time, on the occasion of the meeting of Elrond.

far north.

Across Mirkwood and Rovanian, across Lonely Mountain and Iron Hills, through the cursed, towering and desolate ring mountain, to the forgotten hell full of poisonous water and cinders.

It was a dreadful land beyond the keenest eye, beyond all vegetation and animals.

Utumno.

The evil fortress that existed in ancient times was built by the first generation of the dark enemy Morgoth, but it has long been abandoned. In the ruins of nothing but death and desolation, an ominous flame suddenly ignited, and vicious black smoke rose into the sky. !Lava and tongues of flame spread out from the three deep holes that had long been abandoned and collapsed, and flowed to further places.

In the light of the fire, countless evil figures that we have long forgotten uttered terrible roars. Under the call of a voice, they opened up from the ground and caves in an endless stream.

"It's time, let us regain the dominance of this world! Forward, my army!"
