Chapter 119 The Return of Gandalf

Every day that followed was very long and depressing for Bilbo, and the dwarves spent most of their time sorting out and digging for treasures.

Thorin has been talking about his family heirloom diamond, the Arken gem.He still didn't give up looking for that gem, the symbol of the highest power of the dwarves.

They behaved as if the army of elves and humans surrounding the Lonely Mountain did not exist at this time. Every day there was a squad of elves patrolling the periphery of the Lonely Mountain. They would not let go of any possibility of letting the dwarves escape. .

Until one day, another army of elves arrived, and they went up the frozen valley of the running river, and then entered the valley city.

That team was the Rivendell army led by Gao Yuan. He fulfilled his promise to Bard and escorted the old, weak, women, children and wounded in Changhu Town to River Valley City safely.

The reputation of the dragon slayer is indeed very useful, but it is not really so useful in front of the human and the elf army of the woodland kingdom.Although he still has the Rivendell elf army brought by Arwen, he will not regard it as a bargaining chip to threaten the coalition forces.

Helping Bud escort the residents of Changhu Town, and then they reached River Valley City in one step, which is a step that Bud gave Gao Yuan.

Because Rivendell's team arrived at Dale City during the day, Bilbo could see very clearly that Rivendell's banner was still flying in this team.

He could even see Gao Yuan and Arwen riding on the same white horse.

"Mr. Gao Yuan and the others have also come to River Valley City. I hope this will give some room for easing the tense situation." Bilbo looked at Thorin with a solemn expression.

For the arrival of Gao Yuan and others, Sorin didn't seem to be excited. He still had the same expression on his face when he declared war with the elf messenger that day.

"Don't expect the elves of Rivendell to help us against their kin."

"Don't forget, they are standing with our enemies at this moment. They may not be our enemies, but they will definitely not help us." Thorin shook his head.

Bilbo almost exploded when he heard that. He couldn't imagine what was going on in Thorin's head right now.

Raven Rock brought new news to Thorin: Dyne and the two thousand dwarf soldiers he led had rushed from the Iron Hills to the Lonely Mountain day and night. Only about two days away.

"However, at this time, the entire south of the lonely mountain is already surrounded by elves and human armies. It is difficult for them to cross the branch on the left without anyone noticing." Rock analyzed the current situation to Thorin.

"I am worried that they will have a big battle with the coalition forces in the valley, but that is meaningless. Although they are brave and good at fighting, they cannot break through the encirclement of the coalition forces to save you. Even if they reach the gate of the lonely mountain , you will still be trapped by the coalition forces."

"In the coming time, the Lonely Mountain will be even colder. The supplies in the Lonely Mountain will not be enough to sustain you for too long. What are your plans?" Rock and his fellow clansmen are indeed very powerful. The situation and situation are all under their control at this time.

Thorin remained unmoved by Rock's worries and warnings. "Winter and snow affect humans and elves alike."

"They'll find that they're in the wild and they can't handle the extreme weather of the Lone Mountain more than we do."

"Now it's not them who surround us, but me and my reinforcements surround the coalition forces. My brother Dyne will block the supply lines of those coalition forces."

"Under the double attack of my reinforcements and Lin Dong, I believe they will soon try to subdue us at the negotiating table."

Sorin finally revealed his plan at this moment, and it turned out that this was the reason why he had always been confident.

As for why he said it at this moment, because he had already noticed that the dwarves in the lonely mountain were already panicking.

The dwarves urgently need a reassurance to stabilize the morale of the army.

But Bilbo is still not very optimistic about Thorin's plan, and he doesn't want to see the scene that Thorin said come true, because there are not only elves and human soldiers from the Woodland Kingdom in the River Valley City at this moment.

There are still troops from Rivendell in River Valley City, and ordinary civilians from Changhu Town are there. The supply line of the coalition forces has been cut off, so what should the elves and those civilians of Rivendell do?
In the evening, Gao Yuan and Arwen had settled the army brought by Rivendell. According to Gao Yuan's instructions, he arranged for these elf armies to be stationed at the various walls of River Valley City.

He successfully persuaded Thranduil to let these Rivendell elf soldiers patrol together with the woodland elves and build defenses independently.

However, they will not participate in the battle between the coalition forces and the dwarves, and they will simply defend the residents of Changhu Town.

Gao Yuan's selfless behavior moved Bud quite a bit, and he said that the elves of Rivendell and Gao Yuan will always be friends of humans in Changhu Town.

Just when Gao Yuan wanted to spend some time with Arwen in the warm tent, the arrival of two uninvited guests broke the original charming atmosphere in the tent.

An old man in a gray shabby robe and a pointed wizard hat appeared in front of the tent. If Gao Yuan hadn't known the old man, he would have thought that a beggar had appeared in front of him.

"Gandalf!" Gao Yuan shouted in surprise, he quickly pulled his salty pig's hand out of Arwen's waist, and Arwen also straightened his robe with a flushed face.

"Mr. Gao Yuan, it seems that I came at the wrong time." Gandalf, who looked dusty and dusty, showed a strange smile on his face.

Gao Yuan laughed: "Indeed, it would be better if you came later."

The atmosphere at the scene was very awkward.

"Let's not talk about that, I haven't seen Gandalf for a long time, why did you look like this?" Gao Yuan looked at Gandalf strangely, and he was dirty all over.

Gandalf sighed, and related his experience with Elrond, Galadriel, and Saruman in Dol Guldur.Also emphatically emphasized the orc army from Dol Gurdur to the Lonely Mountain, and the news of the disappearing Witch King of Angmar, the Nazgul.

Gao Yuan smiled and shook his head, saying that he already knew all this, thinking that Gandalf didn't know about his experience with the expedition team, so he took Gandalf and others, sat in front of the bonfire in the tent, and narrated of their adventures.

Arwen sat by Goron's side, leaning on his shoulders; and across from them sat Gandalf, and Lindir who came with him.

The four of them sat around the bonfire and listened quietly to Gao Yuan's narration of how he and the dwarf expedition reached the foot of the lonely mountain along the way, the various difficulties and tribulations they encountered, and how they managed to save themselves from danger.

Among these stories, quite a few were deliberately skipped by Gao Yuan, such as the Supreme Lord of the Rings in Bilbo's hand, how he initiated the earthquake in the Misty Mountains, and so on.

The story is very long, and Gao Yuan started from Rivendell: Encountering a battle with stone giants, being trapped in the town of orcs, escaping from the misty mountains, fighting in the forest with orcs and goblins, helping the big eagle, Not knowing each other with Beorn, giant spiders in the dense forest, orcs and ring spirits attacking the woodland kingdom, fighting dragons in the Lonely Mountain, dancing with dragons in the sky above Long Lake Town.

Until he talked about how he killed Smaug, Gao Yuan had already talked for more than three hours. It was hard for the three of them who had not experienced all this to imagine what kind of thrilling adventure they had experienced.

Any one of these adventures is enough to make ordinary people boast for a lifetime, and it is inevitable that the three people present will be amazed by it.

Gandalf couldn't help laughing wryly when he heard the end of the story: "It seems that compared to the adventures of you and the expedition team Gaoyuan, my experience with the Baidaohui in Dol Guldur seems so insignificant."

"I sent a request to Madam Galadriel to ask you to help these homeless dwarves, but I did not provide you with a little help. As the initiator of this expedition, I seem to be too incompetent. "
