The riding and chopping simulator of the Lord of the Rings

In the blue sky, a few pale white clouds blocked the noon sun, making the air that had been slightly warm become cold again.

A brightly armored army came from the west, passed by the quiet and comfortable Yalagal, and headed non-stop along the road towards Qicha Fortress.

The griffin flag at the front of the team fluttered in the wind, shining with a faint golden light in the sun.

Not far from here, a torrent of steel with a main tone of silver and red was rolling towards the Lion City. Occasionally there were little green figures mixed in, which were the horn summoning rangers responsible for conveying the message.

The knight in shining armor holds a bright red flag in his hand, embroidered with a golden lion rising and roaring, which represents the ruler of the Lion Kingdom.

As an ambitious and scheming king, Ulric quickly recovered from the successive blows and pulled all the lords on board on the grounds that Lion City was the most important transit point on the supply line. own chariot.

It even included the Duke of Alama, who was planning to leave, and the garrison stationed at Qicha Fortress.

If the supply line is broken, there will be no food. In war, you always need to eat. Hungry soldiers will 100% start a mutiny.

Now, the remaining supplies in the Lion Kingdom camp, plus the inventory of Qicha Fortress, are barely enough to feed the army for a month.

Now there are two roads before Ulric. One is to break into the Bacchus Empire, burn, kill and loot all the way to support the war. After accumulating enough supplies, he can then go back and annihilate those who came out of nowhere. The remnants of Pendor come.

But Emperor Marius' camp was stationed right in front of him, so how could he let such a large force enter his country?These Imperials themselves are waiting for the opportunity to invade the Kingdom of the Lion.

Therefore, Ulric chose another path without much consideration, which was to use up the last supplies and bring all the troops back to Lion City. Even if he could not expel the enemies occupying the city, he could still bring a large army back to the kingdom. Rest in the west again.

At that time, it will be the remnants of Pendor who will face the front line of the Empire, and his large army can be stationed in Harlingsburg to watch the Empire compete with its two tigers, and then make appropriate actions based on the war situation.

This plan gained the consent of almost all the lords. Even the lord of Qicha Fortress, Baron Leofvan, knew that his territory had become an abandoned son in the eyes of the kingdom, so he had to follow the large army.

Because he knew that he had no other choice. If he didn't want to die, he had to abandon the family business that he had held on to for hundreds of years.

Anyone could see that there must be anger brewing in Ulric's heart that could burn everything.

No matter how much dissatisfaction you have in your heart, you must never show it in person, otherwise you may be convicted of treason.

Therefore, for the sake of victory in the war, for the unity of the kingdom, and for being able to survive such a difficult time, no one would raise any objection, no matter what the minds of these lords were thinking.

Soon, Ulric led most of his lords and more than 2000 of the most elite cavalry in the kingdom, preparing to rush to Yarragar.

A fertile autumn had just passed there, and whether it was Lord Andrew's manor or the common people's warehouses, there must be a lot of food stored.

Now, the army with insufficient supplies has to requisition the food there, but it must be in front of the enemy.

To a certain extent, Ulric's reaction was not unpleasant, but he did not expect that the enemy troops occupying the Lion City would come to surround him so quickly.

In fact, the distance between the two armies was less than ten kilometers.

So the first people to come into contact were naturally the reconnaissance cavalry deployed by both parties on the periphery to detect intelligence.

The Horn of the Lion Kingdom summons the Rangers VS the Twilight Knights of Elaklay.

The Horn Call Rangers from Changhe Town are a legion established by the local nobles after imitating the Jatu people. Although the number is small, they are skilled in riding and shooting, and have excellent armor. Even the war horses under their crotches are specially bred Jatu hybrids, which can be regarded as One of the most elite rangers in Pendor.

The original intention of establishing this force was to fight against the plundering of a small group of Jatu people, and they had some success. Therefore, they were extremely mobile and also served as army scouts at this time.

Some arrogant knights-errant once boasted in taverns about how powerful they were and how capable they were of facing off against the Noldor elves in forests and grasslands.

However, when they actually met the elite of the Noldor elves, the Twilight Knights who rode elven horses and held Noldor sigil bows, they truly understood how weak they were.

When the vague figure of the Twilight Knight appeared in the field of vision of the investigating Horn Rangers, several shining arrows had already flown over, and immediately, several flowers of blood spattered.

Panic and fear suddenly struck their hearts, preventing these rangers from taking the correct actions at the first time. By the time they thought of running away, it was already too late.

The elf horse galloped at full speed on the plain, as if there was a strong wind under its hooves. In the blink of an eye, the three Twilight Knights approached the Horn Rangers who had just recovered.

Of course, as members of the Knights, the Rangers will not just sit back and take action.

The collision of long knives and sharp swords, the chorus of shouts and screams, occurred one after another on this small battlefield.

After a while, everything returned to calm, and the three Twilight Knights began to return with an unconscious prisoner, leaving behind several bodies that died tragically on the spot, and several geldings that ran wildly away from Changhe Town.

From the prisoner's mouth, Allen basically didn't ask for any valuable information. It has to be said that the young knights of Pendor, especially those who can join the knights, have their own beliefs and arrogance. .

Of course, it may also be related to the fact that Allen did not use too many torture methods. If he used all the ten torture methods of the Qing Dynasty, Iron Man would be able to squeeze out the juice.

It's just that Allen doesn't want to use it, and he doesn't bother to use it. Since the enemy's traces have been discovered, it means that Ulric has come nearby. Using the Eye of the Sky, you can naturally know the specific situation of the opponent.

After a while, the team preparing to go to Qicha Fortress began to stop on the spot and prepare for battle amidst the continuous sounds of orders.

The civilian soldiers holding spears and halberds and wearing heavy plate armor stood at the front of the team with cowering expressions and trembling bodies.

They have not received any decent training at all, and their weapons and equipment come entirely from the defenders of Changhe Town and Lion City, as well as the stocks of the kingdom and nobles.

His combat experience was even more pitiful. The most he did during this period was marching, marching, and marching.

Allen didn't expect them to really be able to block the impact of the heavy cavalry. He wasn't so whimsical yet.

He just needs these soldiers to stand there and attract the enemy's attention.

As long as the plan goes well, Ulric and his cavalry troops will probably not be able to get in front of these civilians.

Nearly a thousand Noldor rangers, armed with swords and shields and carrying longbows, hid in the woods near the road, behind hills and in mountain gorges where they were difficult to detect.

The Griffin Knights and the Noldor Cavalry stayed beside Allen, and there were probably nearly a thousand people in total.

Sir Mocas Villar led his Snow Lion mercenary group and detoured back to the mountain cols further away. They would try their best to get behind the enemy and execute the hammer-and-anvil tactics mentioned by Allen.

After setting up everything, Allen looked up at the sun that was gradually moving westward. He was blocked on the only way to Yarragar, waiting for Ulric's "grand visit".

As fewer and fewer rangers returned to report, an ominous premonition gradually surged into Ulrik's heart. The premonition became stronger the further he walked, and even in the cool autumn, his back felt... A lot of cold sweat broke out.Under his orders, the team moved slower and slower until one of the rangers brought back news from the enemy, which was news about the gryphon flag.

After getting the specific information from the enemy, Ulric finally calmed down.

As long as the enemy dares to appear in front of him, then under the leadership of Wang Qi, the knights of the Lion Kingdom will be unstoppable. What he fears is just the unknown. After all, the number of enemies is not as large as his own.

The team began to move forward again, until the glittering golden flag appeared on the other side of the road. The extremely weak light seemed to sting Ulric's eyes, and even more so, pierced his sensitive and proud heart.

"Stop!"

At the king's order, the torrent of silver and red knights slowly stopped advancing.

The march was stopped for no other reason than because the remnant of Pandor on the opposite side had put on a gesture of inviting you to enter the urn.

Not to mention the extremely obvious traces on both sides of the road, the smoke and dust caused by the galloping cavalry in the distance is enough to make people suspicious.

Seeing this, any general with some command experience would be able to guess that the enemy must have set up an ambush here, let alone Ulric, who had been fighting for a lifetime.

He didn't know what "surprise" the other party had prepared for him, so he decided to wait and see and wait for the large army behind him.

Allen looked at the enemy troops stopped in the distance and smiled slightly. This was completely expected.

Because he did not expect that his actions would be able to hide this from all the other generals.

Allen never thought of treating the other side's lords as fools. Those people had been fighting on horseback for a lifetime and had never seen any scenes before.

Such hasty preparations would not be effective at all. He had already guessed this.

After confirming that the cavalry of the Lion Kingdom had no intention of charging, Allen lightly kicked the horse's belly and walked slowly towards the golden lion on the flag.

The nearly a thousand elite cavalry behind him also controlled the speed of the horses and closely kept up with the pace of the new king.

"Ulric, are you just standing there motionless? Do you want to talk?"

Allen's shouts drifted to Ulric's ears with the wind, which made a trace of doubt flash in his heart. This was a bit unusual. Can the sound travel such a long distance?

But the subordinates around him were looking at him, and they had obviously heard the other party's invitation to negotiate.

"Andrew, take this flag and tell the ignorant boy opposite that if he wants to talk, I allow him to bring ten of his subordinates to come to me and my vassals to talk. I will follow the ancient treaty of not killing the messenger. , to ensure his safety."

Seeing that his side's cavalry had an overwhelming advantage, and in order to maintain his majesty as a king, Ulric agreed to the invitation to negotiate.

Of course, it was impossible for him to shout in the wilderness. In Ulric's opinion, that was an extremely despicable act, something only those untouchables who dug in the dirt would do.

As a loyal subordinate of Ulric and a member of the Lion Knights, Lord Andrew took over the flag and ran wildly along the flat grassland to the opposite side. After a while, more than ten knights followed him to Ukraine. In front of Eric.

Allen readily accepted Ulric's invitation, with a very calm expression on his face and full of confidence in his eyes.

This performance actually caused the other lords of the Lion Kingdom to see a slight change in the way they looked at Allen.

In this era, courage is always worthy of respect, even from the enemy.

"Ha, I thought it was that stupid Darion who finally found an investor, but unexpectedly it was an exile. Tell me, what do you want to talk about?"

Ulric's tone was full of sarcasm. He looked at the familiar young man in front of him and finally remembered who he was. The portrait from Buckley was still in his bedroom.

A few years ago, Ulric suddenly received a portrait and a letter, which stated that the young man in the portrait was the true bloodline of the Pendor royal family, and told him to make plans in advance.

At that time, based on the idea of ​​​​preferring to believe what he had rather than what he didn't, Ulric issued a wanted order to the black and white, and the reward was even as high as a baron.

Unexpectedly, today, the other party would stand in front of him so openly, and he would also force himself into a dilemma.

Allen's face was full of a calm smile at this time, and his tone seemed very gentle.

"Let me introduce myself. I am the lord of Long River Town and Lion City, the new king of the Kingdom of Pendor, and the owner of the Silver Throne. Although you are just a usurper, I allow you to call me Allen.

Now I have a proposal. Why don't you surrender immediately? I will allow you to take your family and leave. "

"I refuse!! This negotiation is over." Ulric interrupted Allen's words angrily. This was an insult to him as a king, especially the title of a usurper, which simply revealed the 200-year history of his family. Scars from years past.

Although he was interrupted, there was no trace of anger on Allen's face, but his tone began to become urgent, and his voice gradually became as loud as thunder.

"Why do you refuse? Your troops only have less than a month of supplies. Behind you is the army of the empire that is eyeing you. Even almost two-thirds of the lords who accompany you were once members of our Griffin King Banner. Vassals, they were forced to gather under Alfred's banner.

Now, I have come back, with great power. The Kingdom of Pendor has been rebuilt, and the Griffin King's flag is rising again in the Lion City. As long as you surrender, I can solve everyone's crisis.

Even most of your family is in my hands, why do you refuse?What right do you have to refuse! "

With the help of the power of the wind, Allen's voice completely suppressed Ulrik's roar. The soldiers holding spears and halberds under command actually ran forward hundreds of meters in order and appeared behind the cavalry.

The elf rangers hidden on both sides of the road also appeared at the same time, staring at the enemies looking around with emotionless eyes.

Even the Snow Lion Legion led by Sir Mocas Villar loomed in the distance. Of course, Baron Villar looked at the scene in front of him and stopped his charge in a very sensible way.

Clearly, this is not a good time to execute the Hammer and Anvil tactic.

And this is Allen's plan. His target has never been the angry-faced king in front of him. If he wants to kill him, it is nothing more than a lightning strike.

Allen's first purpose was to tell all the Lion Realm nobles gathered here.

"Everyone can make a choice. In such a critical situation, as long as you choose to be loyal to me, I promise to retain everyone's titles and wealth, and lead you to repel the empire."

Sometimes words are more powerful than a knife.

"Unless you step over me!!" Ulric pulled out the Chaos Symbol Sword from his waist and pointed at Allen angrily. (End of chapter)
