Dragonborn from Lord of the Rings

Chapter 188 The Battle of Destruction
Iluvita once gave blessings to the souls of other worlds: everything he hates and dislikes cannot hurt him!
Over the years, Turka has experienced many wars, but has never suffered a single injury.

Even Nazgul's magic had no effect on him.

Although the battle with the Balrog and even the white-robed wizard Saruman was difficult, the final winner was still Turka Arakano.

Therefore, we have no way of knowing where exactly the range of dislike and dislike is.

But in the second Battle of Lonely Mountain, Turka was wounded in the face of the sneak attack of the blue-robed wizard Alatar.The power of Morgoth flowed into the body of the blue-robed wizard along the tip of his sword.

At that time, no one would have believed that a noble wizard (Maia) would be a lowly assassin. The battle with the Balrog took up most of Turka's energy. Shadow, it's too late.

Wang fell down without saying a word, like a giant bear in deep sleep.

This almost changed the course of the entire battle.

Although Eonwe appeared at the critical moment and started a battle with the fallen blue-robed wizard, Nahal also burst out the dazzling light of Valinor again and again in anger, repelling the demon who fell into madness after seeing the silver king fall. enemy.But the king's injury still confused the elves, dwarves, and humans on the battlefield.Loyal guards rescued him from the chaos of the battlefield and took him to the dwarven halls to recuperate.

The cavalry and Celeborn who went to pursue the enemy also returned from the front line. They did not kill all the enemies. Many half-orcs fled back to the ancient fortress in the northern wilderness, and some fell into the south and Iron Hills.Continue to endanger Central Continent.

At that time, everyone felt deeply disturbed and frightened.

Because, although the cunning blue-robed wizard was chased by Eonwe all the way to the ruins of Utumno, in the end, Arataar still fled into the deepest part of that terrifying fortress and hid.

At that time, even Ionway, looking at the deep and terrifying ancient fortress, couldn't help but feel a little frightened. He knocked on the sword and shield vigorously at the entrance of the huge tunnel, and issued a challenge horn. The voice echoed in the Iron Mountains.But Aratar dared not go out to fight.

And Eonwe didn't dare to break into this terrible hell alone, so he stayed at the door for a long time, and finally turned and left.

The only good news is that under the leadership of the Eagle King, the Eagle Clan repelled the giant dragon in the Iron Mountains, giving the elves and dwarves a chance to breathe.

The news that the king of Elpera was wounded and unconscious spread like wind throughout Middle-earth.When Sauron heard this, he laughed happily, and he took the opportunity to send out all his troops in an attempt to wipe out the resistance in the north.

Thus, the battle known as "Zanda Helkar faare" (Sanda Helkar faare, the final battle of the collapse) broke out.

Aragorn led the remaining tens of thousands of troops to encounter a huge enemy army near Helm's Deep. Rovanian and East Emter's chariot men rushed out, crossed the Onodero River and the Snow Boundary River, and stopped the army. Aragorn's way to the east.

They were so numerous that they were almost equal to the northern army led by Aragorn.Moreover, at the same time, another army of Dongyi people surged out from the line of Lebenning-Long Beach-Druwais Wilderness through the southern pass of the White Mountains, attempting to encircle and suppress the northern army from both east and west.

But the eagle Whitehill informed Aragorn of the news that the enemy's army was divided into two groups and was about to attack the northern army.

So Aragorn adopted Éomer's suggestion.He sent Éomer to Helm's Deep, and persuaded Eckenbrand, who had just recovered Westfold, to send troops to defend the area between the crossing of the Eshin River and the Pass of Rohan.He himself led all the troops to face the enemy in the east.

At that time, Éomer rode a horse and led a small team to the majestic Helm's Deep, shouting: "I am Éomer, the king's nephew, please come out here for a moment."

The Rohir people in Helm's Deep were extremely surprised, because they got the news that His Royal Highness had been exiled, and anyone who dared to help him would be considered treason.And they also heard about the battle in the distance, so the guards on the high wall looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

At this moment, Lord Erkenbrand of Helm's Deep poked his head out from the city wall.

He said: "Iomer, oh Mer, tell me that no one is allowed to help you, and anyone who offers help is guilty. So, what is your business here?"

"Haven't you heard that the words of poisonous snakes cannot be trusted!" Éomer shouted, "It is a chilling and sad thing that the king was deceived by traitors and tortured loyal and good generals?"

Erkenbrand remained silent.

Eomer continued: "Now the King of the North has issued a clarion call to all evil and cunning people. You have recovered the lost land of the country a few days ago. It is this battle. Essinger has collapsed, and the white-robed wizard has given his head. My compatriots , come on, this is our chance to set things right, let us march to Edoras together, and wipe out those scumbags under the throne! Restore the glory of the descendants of Eorl!"

The humans in Helm's Deep were in an uproar.Many of them have heard the legend of the High King in the north, and have experienced the misery of the dark years. Every day, they long for someone to lead them out of this period of despair.Some of the fair-faced veterans even sang the famous "Song of the Dragonborn," which was often sung by bards and scholars of the Rohirr while the northern kingdoms were still honeymooning with Rohan.

"Dovahkiin, Dovahkiin, naal ok zin los vahriin,

Wah dein vokul mahfaeraak ahst vaal!
Ahrk fin norok paal graan fod nust hon zindro zaan,

Dovahkiin, fah hin kogaan mu draal!” (stem)
This song was first chanted by one person, and then, one by one, everyone sang it.

Erkenbrand turned around in surprise, looking at his soldiers and his subjects.I saw that men and women, young and old, all chanted this song representing light with hope and anticipation in their eyes.The song echoed in the deep valley, passed to Jinghui Cave, and passed to the White Mountains, becoming louder and louder.

Eomer couldn't help pulling out his sword, Guswinai, in agitated mood, and said loudly, "What do you say? Children and grandchildren of Eorl, do you still remember the old covenant? What is your choice?"

On the high wall of Helm's Deep, everyone slowly fell silent, and everyone looked at Erkenbrand.

Thus, Éomer pointed his sword at the heroic Lord of Helm's Deep again, and said loudly, "In the name of the king, son of Brand I, you are willing to follow!"

Erkenbrand remained silent.

In front of Helm's Deep, there was silence.

"Your answer!" Éomer's eyes widened angrily, and his voice was like thunder, showing his majesty.

Finally, Erkenbrand spoke: "In the name of the king, I am willing to follow!" He made an oath of allegiance.

Cheers and joy immediately resounded through Helm's Deep.

After receiving the assistance of the Rohir people, Aragorn immediately moved forward to attack the enemies scattered on the vast Westfold grassland.

This was an upright decisive battle. The armies of both sides advanced in tacit understanding, just like the rising tide overflowed the gap in the dam that was considered infallible, and slowly but steadily poured into a flat grassland with no obstacles in all directions.

It was getting brighter.Far, far to the south, clouds were looming, rolling up and drifting like vague gray shadows: dawn was behind them.

At the same moment, a ray of light suddenly appeared, like lightning rising from the land in the east.In that flashing moment, the towering Doomsday Volcano in Mordor was illuminated by the morning light, black and white were distinct, and the black smoke that emitted was even dyed golden.Then, as the darkness gathered again, there was a loud boom rolling across the plain.

That voice made Isildur's descendant's stooped figure straighten suddenly, and he looked tall and mighty again.He straightened up in his stirrups, and cried out in a sonorous voice, more clearly than any mortal man ever could do:
Hussars under the command of the King of the North, rise up!Rise up!

The evil has awakened, burning, killing and looting!

Quickly shake the spear, and the round shield strike,

Draw your swords and fight fiercely, stain the yellow sand with blood, until the sun rises again!

To the battlefield, to the battlefield, to Gondor!

After speaking, he snatched a large horn from Boromir, who was holding the banner, and blew it violently. Due to the excessive force, the horn burst unexpectedly.Immediately, all the horns in the army sounded in unison, and at that moment, the horns of the army in the north resounded like a storm across the plains, and echoed through the mountains like a thunderbolt.

To the battlefield, to the battlefield, to Gondor!

Suddenly, the king among men yelled at the horse under his crotch, and the horse jumped out in response.Behind him, the banner of the king of Gondor fluttered in the wind, and the coat of arms of a tree and seven stars reappeared in the world, just as his father, Arathorn, had foreseen it many years ago.

But he ran faster than it; the vagrant followed him like thunder, but he was always ahead.

Boromir galloped, and the white mane from his helmet fluttered.Moore followed with a wild cry, and the soldiers of Erin Vaughan and Elpera rushed to the coast like a foaming wave, but no one could catch up with Aragorn.The blood of the Human King is running all over his body, just like all the ancestors of his line are possessed.

On his great steed he rode like a god of old, like Orome the great in the War of the Valar when the world was young.He shows Anduriel, behold!It was as bright as the sun, and wherever the horse's snow-white hooves went, the long grass was illuminated and reflected green.

For the dawn has come, and the dawn has come, and the wind that blows from the sea, and the darkness is driven away, and the host of the prince of the princes howls, and falls into terror, and flees and perishes, and the hooves of wrath run over them; The sharp arrows shot down the galloping chariot horses; the thick infantry phalanx overturned the two-wheeled chariots;
No one retreated, no one was afraid, everyone sang battle songs loudly, they sang and killed, immersed in the joy of battle, their singing was magnificent and fearsome, even spread to Helm's Deep in the rear, to AI Xin River Ferry.Passed to Edoras.

And so Éowyn knew that his brother had found reinforcements, and found a way to save the country.

She called the captain of the guard who had been protecting her, and said, "Listen, hope is roaring, the light has come. But we must not sit by and let them fall out of thin air. We should do our best. Glory never comes from charity. "

At that time, Hama admired this well-known lady in the country very much, but he expressed doubts about her plan, because Eowyn actually let him take the opportunity to launch a coup and take down all the people including the sycophant. The court is treacherous and evil.The reason is that the white robe wizards have failed, their power is no longer awesome, and it is an excellent opportunity to wipe out the traitors here.

"But the king is still in their hands," Hama said. "If we stage a coup, it is very likely to hurt him."

However, Her Royal Highness said: "My sword will protect him. You must be fast. When you take down the Meduselde Palace, everything will be settled. No matter how unwilling that poisonous snake is, it can only bow its head !"

But Hama was still hesitant.He didn't doubt the princess's bravery, but he really didn't want to bear the reputation of betraying the Lord.

Eowyn saw his hesitation, and she angrily reprimanded the captain of the guard: "It is our highest honor as a subject to set things right. When you rescued the weakened old king from the mouth of the poisonous snake, our people will only praise you for your good deeds." ! The king will also reward you, why are you hesitating?"

Only then did Hama say: "I don't really want rewards, but I'm just worried that the king will be injured, but if you think I should stand up, then so be it. Among the descendants of Eorl, men have never been more cowardly than women."

"But a woman can wield a sword too," said Éowyn.

Hama leaned over and said nothing.

That night, a voice sounded in the royal city of the Rohir people: "The light has come! All those who do not want to surrender to the darkness should rise up!"

"Protect Your Majesty, and eliminate traitors!"

Many people were surprised to see a team holding torches quickly gathered from all over the city and surrounded the Meduselde Palace.Ling Tong and his henchmen were horrified to see the flames rising into the sky outside the door, thinking that the northern army had already arrived.He screamed, "Hold the gate! Hold the gate!"

Then he staggered and ran in the corridors and aisles, trying to kidnap King Theoden.

But a woman holding a sharp sword and shield brazenly stood guard in front of the king's bedroom, and the bright moonlight shone on her beautiful face, making her look so dazzling. "Stop!" The white princess of Rohan stood upright in front of the poisonous snake and shouted, "This is the king's bedroom, no one can offend it."

Shocked by the princess' aura, Ling Tong and his two henchmen became furious and panicked, knowing that what happened tonight was a conspiracy.Tongue hissed and screamed like a beast before dying: "Don't stand still, she's just a woman! Woman! Go in, if you don't want to die, go in."

But Éowyn moved left and right nimbly, and with the flash of sword light, he chopped down the two villainous subordinates who were tongue-in-cheek.

Then she took a step forward and kicked the villain over with one kick, the cold blade pressed against his throat.

"It's over, you silverfish!"

Ning Tongue opened his mouth wide and shed tears in horror.
