The riding and chopping simulator of the Lord of the Rings

Chapter 248 A Smooth Confluence

For the Dongyi people who were escorting the captives, this attack appeared very suddenly. The Dongyi captain who was shot to death by Allen at the beginning may not have figured out why he would be here at this time until the end of his life. This position is attacked by the enemy.

This was really too sudden, and the sentry cavalry he sent out did not send any news back at all.

For the Twilight Knights, this battle ended too quickly, and there was no pleasure in fighting at all. After cleaning up the eyes around the team, while rapidly approaching the enemy team, the Twilight Knights in AI Under the leadership of Lun, he just launched two rounds of extremely precise arrow rain, and already killed all the mobile forces of the opponent.

Afterwards, the Twilight Knight, who pulled out the Noldor Rune sword and the enchanted shield, directly defeated the Dongyi infantry who barely gathered together in the high-speed charge.

With a small number of them, they broke the enemy's delusion of continuing to resist with their unstoppable power. Then, the whole battle quickly entered the dull pursuit stage, which was just a one-sided massacre.

If someone was watching the battle nearby, they would be extremely surprised to find that these Dongyi soldiers escorting the dwarves were killed by more than half of them by Allen and his eleven guards within a single meeting. people.

This is enough destructive power to deter any small battle.

Those Dongyi people who were lucky enough to survive did not realize what a terrible thing they had encountered after a short period of confusion. The fear that was enough to make people collapse occupied their hearts in an instant, causing the living to act normally. or unusual behavior.

Some people threw down their weapons in a state of extreme fear, yelling and running wildly on the wasteland, never considering that their two legs could not run with four legs at all.

Some people, on the other hand, tightened their fingers even more, clenched the strange-shaped iron spears tightly, yelled incomprehensible words, and provoked the silver armored knights cruising around, and then were shot dead by a fast-flying arrow. He left Arda with his captain.

More were surrenderers who knelt on the ground and gave up their resistance. Although these people were very scared, they managed to retain their sanity and took the best way to save their lives.

And the most surprising thing, apart from the two Dongyi horses pulling the chariot that suddenly lost their masters, were probably the dwarves who were wearing handshakes and shackles, and were starved to the point where they were left with only skin and bones.

Although the elf knights who appeared suddenly did not attack them, these dwarves still maintained sufficient vigilance, and even disregarded the tense surrounding situation, these dwarves picked up many weapons scattered everywhere by the Dongyi people from the ground , and gave it to his companions to protect him.

The black-haired people living in the east didn't have much contact with the elves in the west, but there were also rumors of tension between elves and dwarves among their ethnic groups. I'm afraid I have to thank Thorin for this. In that special period, I am afraid that there was a lot of bad things said about the elves.

"Which one is Daev?" Allen, who had just returned from the side of the chariot, looked at the nervous dwarves and asked loudly, and Daev is Tehar's cousin, just like Dyne and Sorin's relationship is the same.

"I am." As the highest status among the group of dwarves, Daev still managed to maintain the most basic decency. Although the most valuable accessories on his body were the pair of iron shackles that bound him, but Daev's The beard was still barely in a smooth state, not messy like other dwarves, as if a weed had grown on his face.

It's just that under the beard, Daev's relatively clean face has a surprised expression, because the shout he heard just now seems to be a standard dwarven language, which makes him somewhat unable to grasp the tall and sturdy powerful cavalry in front of him. Who is it.

It was just a bunch of keys that flew over suddenly, and Dayev put aside all the doubts in his heart, and took them very quickly, because it represented the freedom he had lost for several years, and it was Dayev and his people who were here. The thing you want most at this moment.

"Your leader Tiehar has now become my subordinate, and he bought your freedom at the price of allegiance. This is what he gave you."

While talking, Allen took out a wooden barrel and threw it over, which contained letters written by Tiehar himself. The dwarf's writing had a smell of rock, and there were various changes in the hardness. Anyway, he I don't know a single word.

Dayev, who opened the shackles and took out the letter, did not respond to Allen's words. He was naturally grateful for the kindness of saving his life, but for dwarves, it is too unimaginable to be loyal to a human being, even if it is passed down in ancient times. There is no such story in any of the ballads.

It’s just that the contents of the letter made Daev’s face even more surprised. Although his cousin Tiehar rushed to the lonely mountain under the cover of many tribesmen, his subsequent encounters were not particularly smooth. This series of changes is enough It makes people feel emotional.

But to Dayev's relief, his efforts were not in vain during the long and humiliating wait. Most of the surviving clansmen finally got rescued, but the one who he thought would be Dulin who had recaptured the Lonely Mountain. family.

After all, his grandfather, his uncle, and his father had personally participated in the war against the half-orcs, so the people who came should be Durin dwarves, not elves and humans.

However, Dayev did not hate Sorin, who is the king of Durin, in the letter. In the letter, Tiehar said that Sorin took care of him a lot, and promised to rescue the captured people at the right time. Shan's current population does not have the strength to aggressively attack Rune.

Most of the places where the Dongyi people live are unobstructed wastelands. In the face of chariots, cavalry, hounds and a large number of infantry, the dwarves really do not have an advantage. Too few, and the dwarves are not good at blitzkrieg, so they are easily held back by the Dongyi people who came after hearing the news.

At that time, whether to save people or give away their heads will become an unknown, and Thorin still sees this very clearly.

Before that, Sorin also suggested that Tiehar should follow his example of taking back the Lonely Mountain to form an expedition team to save the tribe, and was willing to provide him with a job to earn fees, and then it would be replaced by Allen come yet.

As for why Sorin didn't directly provide the wealth to form the expedition team, it was because Tehar refused. The young dwarf leader also knew very well that once he accepted the wealth given by Sorin, the Lonely Mountain would probably not Send troops to save your people.

It is a matter of course that a kindness is exchanged for a proper help, but this kindness is in exchange for Tehar's life in the end. Although Alan never thought of killing him, Sorin and Tehar thought They all understand that they have settled down with each other.

Looking at the short but rather complicated letter, Dayev managed to figure out the reason behind it. He looked at Allen who was calm on the horse, his bony right hand clenched into a fist, "bang" "bang" "Bang" beat three times on the chest.

This is the etiquette for the dwarves to show their allegiance. Unlike humans, they generally do not kneel to the object of their allegiance. In the culture of the dwarves, kneeling just means praying for forgiveness, and has no other meaning.

"My lord, everything that my cousin Tiehar said will come true, and from now on, we will serve you until we are recalled to the Mandos Hall."

"I promise to provide you with suitable housing, I promise to provide you with enough food, and I promise to provide you with jobs you love until the end of our contract."

Allen responded with a loud and powerful voice to Daev, who expressed his allegiance, and then took out a bag of food from behind his cloak, and after turning over and dismounting, he placed it beside the dwarf along with a few water bags. Daev, who had been watching Allen all this time, twitched his eyelids again.

He didn't notice that there were so many things on that horse before, but Daev didn't ask, because they were Aoli's creation after all, and they were born with some extraordinary powers.

Allen didn't bring out too much food. There were fruits, sausages, and jerky. For the dozens of dwarves on the scene, it was at most a stomach pad, and it was far from being full, but for now case is enough.

Now is not a good time to hold a banquet. The Twilight Knight who is chasing Dongyi soldiers is still killing people. Allen needs the dwarves to regain their freedom. Instead, he left a sentence "Daev, take care of your people." Then he stepped on the hunt again.

Allen is going to gather the Dongyi war horses running around, and the two-horse chariot that can carry many people. They still need some help when they retreat later. If they are allocated properly, it is better than walking fast.

As for the support of Fatis, I am afraid it will take a while to arrive. Allen summoned him to deal with unexpected situations, not to attack this slave convoy. There are only a hundred or so ordinary Dongyi soldiers. It's not that I'm worried about accidentally injuring the dwarves, killing them is nothing more than a few chain lightning bolts.

The roaring and shouting gradually subsided in this land, leaving only the calmed down hoofbeats and the noise that gradually became clearer. The dwarves are indeed a tough and magical race, who have just escaped from captivity. The brunette immediately cheered up over the food, which was still delicious.

What made them even more happy was that what was in the water bag was not clear water, but fragrant and mellow beer. In their opinion, this was already a moment worth celebrating.

It's just that compared to his heartless clansmen, Dayev's mood was mixed with joy and a little bit of sadness, because not all his clansmen were present.

In the tribe where the dwarves left, there are still some black-haired dwarves. Although they are not from the same tribe as Daev, they helped each other when they were enslaved, and they established a relatively deep relationship.

So Daev, who was freed, wanted to help them, but he didn't know how to speak to his new human leader. He could only silently follow Allen's order, let his people reluctantly step on human horses, and march towards the west .

And Alan, the Dongyi people who surrendered, were not executed, but tied up all the prisoners of war with a rope and let them run behind the horse's buttocks.

Facts have proved that when humans face life-threatening threats, although they will not break through their own boundaries and have the same explosive speed as horses, their durability is still relatively good. As long as the speed is reduced to a certain level, they can run at a constant speed For a long time, especially these Dongyi people who are usually happy to hunt.

In this way, the eleven twilight knights spread out throughout the wasteland, keeping an eye on the surrounding situation. Although most areas in Middle-earth are sparsely populated, especially the places where the Dongyi people live, it is necessary to guard against accidents. Vigilance is never superfluous.

And Allen, with about twenty war horses, a chariot full of dwarves, and a long line of Dongyi prisoners of war following the team, headed towards the red water at a barely acceptable speed. direction of the river.

Two or three hours later, a blue-gray flying bird flew across the sky, followed by the sound of rumbling horseshoes, and a torrent of silver and green appeared in the team's field of vision. As many as seven to eight hundred people.

Silver is a heavy armored knight wearing a full body of plate armor. Now they have replaced the mount with the blood of a purebred Jatu war beast. Its excellent endurance is enough to carry a fully armed knight on a long journey. Of course, the premise is that it cannot be given War horses in armor.

The green ones are knight attendants wearing burqas and chain armor. The burqas are painted with the emblem representing Allen, and the crown and three-star flag on a green background. Some of the bloodlines are of Jatu war beasts, but they are also far superior to ordinary horses.

For them who are skilled in equestrianism, they don't need one person and three horses at all for three or four hours of long-distance raids. It's just that according to Allen's order, they still brought spare horses, which made the whole team look even bigger. When you look at it, it seems that there are nearly 2000 people.

However, the current situation is somewhat beyond Allen's expectations. He can tell at a glance that Fatis has brought out all the knights and trained attendants.

Allen's original idea was just to ask Fatis to bring a cavalry team to support it. One or two hundred people would be enough, and there was no need for so many.

Seeing the majestic subordinates, Allen waved his hand to stop the team behind him, while he himself tapped his head with messy hair, and had other thoughts in his mind.

Fatis is actually no wonder why such a thing happened. This is because Alan's order was a bit vague. If he had said that he wanted 200 people, this situation would not have happened, but in terms of the situation at the time, Alan Most of his thoughts were on rescuing the dwarves.

If he was blackmailed by Barr or forced to kill Barr, Allen himself would laugh at himself when he talked about it in the future, so he lacked a little thought when giving orders.

However, this kind of situation is not a bad thing, come and come, always have to do something to leave.
