The riding and chopping simulator of the Lord of the Rings

Chapter 63

The Kingdom of the Lonely Mountain, also known as the Kingdom Below the Mountain, was once also one of the homes of the Durin Dwarves.

At this time, on the square in front of its gate, hundreds of heavily armored dwarf infantry were fighting hard under the siege of countless Uruk soldiers.

They were the elite brought by Dyne from the Iron Hills, more than 800 heavy dwarven infantry supporting Thorin Oakenshield.

In the previous battles, they were the rocks that stood on the way of the Uruk soldiers' attack. With the mutual help of their companions, they persisted tenaciously even in the face of an enemy several times their own.

Moreover, when they killed thousands of Uruk soldiers, their own casualties could reach triple digits.

But all of this was destroyed by the three trolls approaching them. The shield wall they were proud of had no resistance under the brute force of this monster, and was broken in an instant.

In a very short time, the dwarf hoplites in the middle of the shield wall were surrounded by Uruk soldiers.

Many dwarf warriors who had no time to react in the attack of the trolls were thrown down by a large number of Uruk soldiers in a panic, and then countless weapons, chopped or smashed, attacked them and took their lives.

The old dwarf warriors with more combat experience understood the current situation at this moment, and they shouted "circle formation" loudly to the dwarf warriors around them.

Then these old dwarf warriors rushed out from the dwarf ranks, frantically attacking the surrounding Uruk, regardless of the weapons that the enemy cut at them.

They are using their flesh and blood to buy time for the other dwarves to form an formation.

The dwarves on both sides of the shield wall were not under siege. At this time, most of the Uruk soldiers' attention was on the besieged dwarves.

Faced with this situation, these dwarven hoplites no longer maintained their formation, but waved their weapons to rescue their compatriots in the middle.

Of course, they couldn't just watch as the compatriots under siege died at the hands of Uruk soldiers.

For a while, the two sides fell into a dog-tooth melee.

Without the help of the shield wall, the casualty rate of the dwarven hoplites suddenly increased. Although they also killed a lot of Uruk soldiers, this could not change the fact that they were surrounded.

At this time, the clear and melodious horns of the woodland elves and the dull horns of the half-orcs sounded one after another.

Azog on Raven Ridge saw the dwarven hoplites, and he was going to target the dwarven chariots next.

Prevent these guys who are closer to the dwarven infantry, and go to support those dwarven infantry.

The few trolls who had just walked to the midfield started to accelerate after hearing the sound of the horn, and rushed towards the dwarf chariot that was criss-crossing the crowd of half-orcs.

They followed Azog's order to stop the chariot.

Under their brute force, two chariots were caught off guard by these trolls soon.

The steel chariot was dismantled under the crazy swing of the troll, the bighorn goats fled wildly, and the dwarves driving the chariot also died tragically in the hands of the troll.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining three chariots shot dead a few trolls rushing towards them with their powerful crossbows, and withdrew towards the gate of the lonely mountain. While avoiding the trolls, they rushed to help their compatriots.

And then remembered, amidst the clear and melodious horns of the woodland elves, a wave of arrows shot from River Valley City first covered the Uruk team in front of the dwarf circle.

This dense arrow rain smashed the formation of Uruk soldiers, not only that, but also took away three trolls who had just dismantled the dwarf chariot.

Thranduil, king of the woodland, rode his big horned deer and led thousands of elven sword and shield fighters from the woodland kingdom, rushing out along the bridge of the valley city.

The elf king came to support the dwarves, whether it was for the victory of the war, or a contract had been signed for that.

He couldn't watch these dwarf infantry die tragically in the siege of the orcs, no matter how much Thranduil hated these short guys before.

The elf king, relying on his superb martial arts, rode a big horned deer while charging, and rushed into the ranks of Uruk soldiers.

Thranduil gracefully swung the elven warblade on his mount, and cooperated with the big horned deer under his crotch, slaughtering the Uruk soldiers who surrounded him.

And then the elf sword and shield fighters who followed launched a charge towards the already sparse Uruk soldier phalanx.

As Yiru's firstborn children, their attributes are far stronger than humans.

Even though they were wearing elven plate armor and holding huge tower shields, they could keep up with Thranduil's footsteps in a short time.

During the charge, they swung the elf blades in their hands as if they were dancing, and killed the Uruks who blocked them all the way.

It was like a gust of golden wind blowing away the black dead branches that stood in their way.

There is no absolute numerical advantage in this area, and even the Uruk soldiers who are at a numerical disadvantage cannot stop the massacre of the elf sword and shield hands at all.

Soon, the elves killed through Uruk's team, forming a golden shield wall in front of the dwarves, blocking the impact of the follow-up Uruk soldiers.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of elves rushed towards the Uruk soldiers who were besieging the dwarves. They were going to rescue the besieged dwarves.

At the same time, about [-] elf shooters launched covering shots on the bridge towards the half-orc army that was attacking later, covering the compatriots who were fighting head-on with the Uruk soldiers.

At this time, Allen, with his personal guards, had already killed another squad of troll trebuchets, and mixed with Dyne's cavalry.

In the spare time between killing the orc, Allen yelled loudly at Dyne, whose body was splashed with black blood.

"Where is Thorin?"

Dyne, who had just killed a Uruk soldier with a warhammer, made his already extremely ferocious face even uglier. He glared at Allen and didn't answer his question.

Instead, he shouted loudly, regrouped the dwarven cavalry who had suffered more than half of their casualties, bypassed the elves' shield formation, and rushed back again, hacking and killing the Uruk soldiers who were besieging the dwarves, and rescued their compatriots.

After a while, these Uruk soldiers who were isolated by the elves' sword and shield hands were massacred by the dwarves and elves.

After finishing all this, the elves retreated back into their shields without saying a word, helping their compatriots, and resisting the Uruk soldiers who seemed to be endless.

The shield formations formed by the sword and shield fighters of the Woodland Kingdom are far from comparable to those of the dwarves. Their two-meter-high body size also gave Uruk soldiers too much room to attack.

In a short period of time, they suffered some casualties.

Ironfoot Dyne, who rescued his compatriots, took a deep look at Thranduil, who was still in the Uruk phalanx, slaughtering wantonly. Only he knew what was going on in his heart.

At this time, Allen took his personal guards and ran back to River Valley City.

The city wall defended by humans and elves is currently engaged in a fierce battle.

Although Allen killed the two troll trebuchet teams in a short period of time.

But the flying stones they poured over smashed the two city walls they guarded, and also injured a large number of elves and humans.

On the city wall that had been damaged again, there were large areas of blood stains, and stumps and corpses could be seen everywhere.

The attacking Uruk soldiers continued to flow, and they even used the corpses of their compatriots and the rubble scattered outside the city wall to pile up a slope more than two meters wide and nearly three meters high.

At this time, they were still not afraid of life and death, and attacked the defenders on the city wall along this slope.

Faced with such a dangerous situation, the elf Contradictory Hand, as the firstborn child, showed the demeanor of the boss.

Their golden figures took the initiative to assume the most dangerous area, armed with spears and shields, and fought with Uruk soldiers in close combat.

And Alan's heavy armored regiment had already suffered nearly half of the casualties in the fight with the Uruk soldiers. They were exhausted and finally replaced by the elves.

Their shields were covered with scars caused by machetes and spears, and they were already stained with blood.

The armor was already drenched with sweat, and the hand holding the weapon trembled slightly, and the moment he retreated from the city wall, he sat directly on the ground.

There are many reasons why they haven't collapsed yet, the most important one is that Elaine led the Nord royal guards and stood at the front of the team and fought to the death.

And behind them there is Bundak, who is watching them covetously, watching them closely all the time.

Those soldiers who were injured and still fighting were also carried or carried by the militiamen in Changhu Town to the temporary hospital.

These militiamen from Changhu Town had already run back and forth hundreds of times, and their bodies were already drenched in sweat in the cold winter.

As for the spearmen who had already shot all their arrows, they were on both sides of the elves' contradictory hands, using a longer attack distance to assist the elves in killing the Uruk soldiers who stepped on the city wall.

In order to compete with Uruk soldiers for these two city walls, Elaine's infantry corps and the conflicting hands of the elves have paid a very heavy price.

Even the archers, who had shot out their arrows, had taken up the spears of their sacrificial comrades, and joined the infantry on the walls to fight the enemy.

But the Uruks were still killing them endlessly, and the black enemies came out of the tunnel one after another, attacking here.

Faced with this situation, Fatis once thought of leading the troops back to the city for defense, but was stopped by Gandalf who had been helping nearby.

This gray-robed wizard has a better understanding of this battle.

If humans and elves really gave up these two city walls, then they would lose their role in containing Azog from the front.

With this city wall, the coalition of humans and elves can attack and defend. If they give up, there is a high probability that they will be blocked in the city by a larger number of half-orc troops and cannot move.

Without the containment of this part of the enemy, Azog can free up more troops to go to the frontal battlefield.

When the dwarves and elves can't bear it anymore, the defenders of River Valley City are just a dead end.

Looking at Gandalf with a serious face, Fatis gave up the idea of ​​withdrawing from the city wall, and continued to dispatch soldiers on the battlefield to resist the attack of Uruk soldiers.

At this time, Allen had returned to the command post of the city wall with his guards, and he stopped and shouted loudly: "Fatis, call the cavalry."

Then Allen turned his head and shouted to Bundak, who was holding a siege crossbow: "Continue to hold on to the city wall, and you can consult Gandalf if you have any questions."

Afterwards, Allen on the horse nodded to Gandalf.

Immediately afterwards, Allen walked towards his cavalry camp with Fatis without waiting for Gandalf to respond.

Fortunately, Fatis did not abandon the city wall, otherwise the four hundred cavalry could only be used as infantry.

At this time, the cavalry were already ready to fight, and under Allen's order, they gathered towards the gate of Gushan.

And in front of the gate of the lonely mountain, the rescued dwarves gathered together again, and three chariots also crashed out of the enemy team.

The casualties of the dwarven hoplites were extremely heavy. In the short period of time after being surrounded, the death rate of the dwarf hoplites was greatly accelerated. At this time, there were only less than 500 dwarves who could still stand up.

And the dwarven cavalry led by Dyne only had about two hundred left. They paid such a huge price in exchange for thousands of Uruk lying on the ground, but their bodies were exhausted and their hearts Wavering has already begun.

Dyne looked at everything in front of him, and angrily glanced at the gate of Lonely Mountain. He raised the hammer in his hand again, looked around at the dwarves who were still alive, and shouted, "Sons of Durin."

In response to him, in addition to the dwarves' "defying death", there was also the loud horn sounding from the Lonely Mountain Kingdom.

Thorin Oakenshield, who had lost his crown and cloak, rushed out from the gate of Lonely Mountain, leading the twelve members of the expedition.

Thorin Oakenshield finally got rid of the dragon disease completely, and turned back into that brave, calm and tenacious dwarf prince once again.

As he rushed out of the Lonely Mountain Kingdom, his gaze was fixed on Raven Ridge.

And Allen led all his cavalry and two skin-changers who had not transformed, and gathered at the gate of the Lonely Mountain Kingdom while running fast.

Allen stopped after seeing Thorin Oak Shield, while the remaining cavalry, led by Fatis, continued to converge towards the east of the Lonely Mountain Gate.

Alan didn't get off his horse, but looked at Thorin Oakenshield who had returned to normal.

Even though the battle was so fierce, Allen still smiled in relief.

He was happy for his friends, and for the dwarves who had fought on the battlefield so far.

Allen said loudly on the horse: "Welcome back, respected King of Lone Mountain, Thorin Oakenshield."

And Sorin Oakenshield looked up at Alan on the horse, laughed, and shouted loudly: "Alan, my friend, congratulations on winning the title of dragon slayer. No matter what my identity is, I respect you." On behalf of the Durin family, thank you for your continued help."

After Alan heard it, he didn't answer, but looked around and asked, "Where's Bilbo?"

Thorin Oakenshield shook his head and said: "I know that no matter how clever a snitch is, he is not suitable for a frontal battlefield. I have arranged for him to rest."

After hearing this, Alan didn't say anything, but nodded to Thorin Oakenshield, and led his personal guards to catch up with his cavalry team quickly.

And Dyne also nodded at Thorin Oakenshield, and led all the dwarven cavalry and three dwarf chariots, following Alan's footsteps.

And Thorin Oakenshield, who was left behind, looked at the dwarf infantry around him, raised his weapons, and shouted loudly: "In the name of Longbeard, descendants of Durin, raise your weapons and follow I charge."

As soon as the words fell, the dwarf prince rushed towards the west side of the elf shield wall first, and behind him were hundreds of dwarf warriors following the king.

As soon as they rushed out, they fought fiercely with the Uruk soldiers. With their morale high, they actually joined the elves to push back the orc army.

Today, when the alliance is broken, the dwarves and elves are united again to fight against the forces of darkness.

As for Azog on Raven Ridge, after seeing this scene, he was slightly caught off guard. He thought that the Uruk soldiers should be able to press down on the opponent all the way to fight, but he didn't expect to be counterattacked now.

The orc leader, after a short thought, thought that the Uruks should not be allowed to attack continuously. The current situation is no longer suitable for such an attack method.

Thinking clearly, he gave the order to gather in front of the tunnel. Azog would accumulate a wave of power at the entrance of the tunnel, and then launch a decisive battle with the elves, dwarves, and humans who rushed out.

Although nearly [-] of the Uruk he brought had died at this time, and more than half of the trolls had died, leaving only a dozen or so, but he didn't panic at all.

Because, the sporadic bats flying from the northwest have told him that the second army of orcs is approaching here and will appear near the Lonely Mountain soon.

At that time, let them rush directly into the frontal battlefield where the decisive battle is taking place, and they can deal a heavy blow to the enemy.

Azog believes that this battle has already been won.

Alan led the cavalry unit and discovered Azog's plan immediately amidst the dull sound of the horn.

He gave up his original plan to cut off the enemy's army. Instead, he took his own cavalry and slammed into the Uruk soldiers in the center of the field. Waving the weapon in his hand, he led the cavalry and frantically swept away the enemies who wanted to retreat. them.

And Dyne led the dwarven goat cavalry and chariots to cooperate with Allen, and soon, they wiped out the enemies in the center of the field.

At this time, Uruk soldiers also gathered a huge force in the open space outside the tunnel. The number seemed to be four or five times that of the elves and dwarves. In the tunnel, black figures continued to come out. It seems like it never ends.

Allen, who stopped in the middle of the field with the cavalry, was considering whether to retreat to River Valley City or Lonely Mountain to continue to hold on.

Then Thranduil, who came to him, and Thorin Oakenshield rejected his proposal.

The reason for their refusal is very simple, that is, they cannot consume enough energy. Nearly [-] Uruk soldiers line up in a dense formation in front of them. When these fearless guys are crushed under the city wall, then the troops of both sides will enter an endless battle. War of attrition.

The bows and arrows brought by the woodland elves have been exhausted, and Alan's archers have no ammunition.

Without the support of bows and arrows, what Alan and the others are facing is a naked meat grinder. Then, at that time, Alan's human army must be the first to die. They are far less elite than dwarves and elves, and they cannot afford to consume them at all. .

Then came the tired dwarves, and finally the elves who were still in good shape.

But even if they win in the end, there will definitely not be a few people left alive.

This does not take into account the collapse of morale. After all, Allen and the others are not facing Snaga, but a more disciplined army like Uruk. It is not necessarily who will collapse first.

Allen himself also knew that soon there would be more than 2 armed Snaga coming from the direction of Raven Ridge.

As for whether Radagast and the big eagle can fly before the army of humans and dwarves dies, Alan has no idea.

Even if the big eagle flew to support, Allen still remembered that whether in the original book or in the movie, the half-orcs began to collapse after the death of the leader.

It's not that the flying eagle can solve everything, the most important thing is that Azog must die.

At this time, the three leaders of humans, elves, and dwarves all looked at Raven Ridge, where Azog was located.

They all knew that the snake head had to be killed. Only when the orcs lost their command and understood that their leader was dead, would the battle be considered over.

But they still need an opportunity, a chance that can attract Azog's attention more, they can't surprise Azog in such a naked situation.

After all, the Orc army still had an absolute advantage in numbers, so it would be too dangerous to be surrounded during a surprise attack.

Therefore, the three leaders summed up a little, thinking that the opportunity is at the moment of the decisive battle.

Soon, both the dwarves and the elves sounded the horns of the decisive battle.

On the battlefield at this time, more than 700 elf infantry and less than [-] dwarf infantry, amidst the sound of loud and melodious horns, advanced neatly, and they gradually approached the huge number of half-orc troops.

Although they are exhausted and their armor is no longer shining, their hearts are still full of fighting spirit and their weapons are still sharp.

Without fear, they set up a half-silver and half-gold long snake formation in front of the half-orcs.

At the same time, more than 500 elf archers rushed out from the bridge in River Valley City. After shooting all their arrows, they stood behind the long snake formation with their war blades in hand.

At this time, the infantry led by Elaine cooperated with the defending elves, and just killed all the Uruk attacking the city wall.

The elves who heard the sound of the horn gathered together immediately, and walked towards the army of orcs from the gentle slope built by Uruk soldiers.

At this moment, Gandalf came over. The gray-robed wizard was not polite at all, and he held up Glamdrin in his hand.

Under the winter sun, the long sword released a bright light, which seemed to be able to arouse the courage of the surrounding soldiers.

He yelled so loudly that his voice could be heard throughout the city.

"Soldiers, now is the time for a decisive battle. Pick up your weapons, leave this wall that is no longer important, and support your lord."

Hearing Gandalf's words, Allen didn't think too much, but pulled up a flag from the city wall and held it up high. It was Allen's crowned three-star flag.

"All soldiers who can still move, please gather under this banner, follow me, follow this banner, we will go to the frontal battlefield, we will support our lord, the decisive battle is now."
