The riding and chopping simulator of the Lord of the Rings

Chapter 95 Bad News from the Far Eastern Dwarves
The straight-line distance from Wilderness Town to the Elven Trail is only about a hundred kilometers long. In the original book, Thorin Oakenshield led the Lone Mountain Expeditionary Team and rode a pony for about four days before completing the journey. section of road.

This speed is not very fast. You must know that in the border of Middle Earth, someone can run 45 leagues in less than four days in an extremely angry situation, which is about 250 kilometers away, and it is still on foot. A feat accomplished over the wilderness.

That's right, it's the part of the journey where Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli chase the orcs and try to save Merry and Pippin.

From this incident, it can be seen how strong these Iluvita's sons and godsons are in terms of physical fitness.

At this time, the solar spacecraft driven by Arian had just risen from the east, and thousands of golden lights poured down from the gaps in the clouds, shining on Alan and his group who were walking north on the road. Now they have left the wilderness Second day in town.

Since Yatiman presided over the repair of this section of the road, the speed from Wilderness Town to the Elven Trail has been much faster. It only takes less than a day for one person and two horses to gallop at the fastest speed.

Of course, Alan is not in a hurry now, because Sorin's enthronement ceremony is still more than a month away, and there is still time to walk slowly, and it happens to be able to take Jamila, who rarely goes out of the city Prime Minister, take a look at the surrounding scenery.

With the policy released by Jamila, a large number of people moved out of Wilderness Town. They were looking for a place with convenient transportation and close to water sources in the large wilderness between Wilderness Town and Wrangler Village, and initially established a large number of people. farm.

Along the way, Allen found more than a dozen wooden houses being built, as well as the leaders who were driving cattle to reclaim the land.

When the people working hard in the fields saw the three-star flag with the crown shining brightly under the sun, they knew that their lord had come here. They stopped their work one after another and turned to Alan and his party Hats off.

When Allen saw someone saluting to him, no matter whether they could see it or not, he would wave his right hand to them with a smile on his face, responding to the respect of the leaders.

What happened along the way fully demonstrated the love and respect for Allen from the people under the rule.

And Allen, who felt all this, was full of pride in his heart. This is the result of his five years of hard work, and it is also the result he needs to protect in the future.

And Yamila, who came out with Ellen for the first time, tied her long golden hair into a ponytail, and she was dressed in red and white casual clothes to set off her graceful figure. Compared with five years ago, Yamila Mira has also grown up a lot. Usually she can't see it in baggy clothes, but this time she can see it all at a glance.

In order to cope with possible emergencies, Jamila still has a warrior's long sword hanging around her waist, which invisibly adds a bit of heroism to this soft-faced woman.

Due to the busy government affairs, Jamila rarely traveled such a long distance, and she went to the horse-grazing village to deal with urgent business affairs a few times, but at that time she was in a hurry and was not in the mood to appreciate the surrounding scenery.

At this time, Jamila was riding a maroon horse, chatting with Alan beside him from time to time, admiring the surrounding scenery, a happy smile appeared on her fair face, under the sun, her beautiful face It seems to be glowing.

A few dwarf artisans under Allen rode ponies in the middle of the team. As Durin dwarves, they must participate in this enthronement ceremony, even in Tyre, which is on the dense forest road. I rushed back before.

In the grass on both sides of the road, the cheerful laughter of a woman can be heard from time to time. It is Kress and Grimm who are playing with Juan.

Six heavily armed twilight knights rode elven horses around to do scouting work. Even though the surrounding area is much safer now, there are often cavalry patrolling this road.

But Allen still feels that he should do a certain amount of protective work, so as not to catch him by surprise.

Bilbo Baggins, who was riding a pony, was chatting with Gandalf for some unknown reason. The two of them were holding their own pipes, puffing out smoke rings one after another from time to time.

Allen was a little puzzled, could Gandalf's tobacco be smoked forever?And these two people only care about smoking for themselves, and they don't even talk about getting a bag for themselves! !

However, then Allen looked at Jamila, who was smiling sweetly and looking bright, and silently dispelled the idea in his heart. At this time, Jamila was in the middle of a conversation, and it was not a suitable time to leave.

Behind Alan, there are several pack horses carrying wine barrels. In order to celebrate Thorin's enthronement ceremony, Alan specially prepared more than a dozen barrels of high-quality mead. On the one hand, to celebrate him becoming the king of Durin, On the other hand, give Sorin a taste. If he or other dwarves like it, Allen is going to sell this fine wine to the dwarves along the trade road of Jungle Road and Running River.

As for why you don't take the path of the Woodland Kingdom, even if Alan and Thranduil are allies, you still have to pay taxes, even if you don't have to pay taxes, you borrow from other people's territories every day, which is also a debt of favor. , it is better not to owe or not to owe.

As the group moved forward, there were two forks in the road. The one to the right could lead directly to the elf trail, while the one to the left led to the horse herding village.

Under the leadership of Alan, the whole team also embarked on the road to the horse herding village, because a few days ago, Tuoju excitedly ran to Alan to report that the matter of nurturing the offspring of elf horses finally came to fruition.

This matter is related to Allen's creation of the heavy cavalry, and it is one of the most important things in the past 20 years. Now that there are some clues, Allen must go to the Wrangler Village to see the specific situation.

In fact, it is definitely not wrong to let Beorn, a skin-changer, do things related to animals. Allen has also considered this matter, but the problem is that Beorn doesn't seem to like him The bred animals go to the battlefield.

So Allen finally dismissed this idea. Since his friends don't like it, why force him to do it? Let Tuoju try it first. As nomads, raising horses is a skill that is immersed in their bones.

When Allen saw dozens of ponies alive and kicking in the stables, he knew that the matter was likely to be successful. The fine scales on the ponies obviously inherited the blood of the elf horses. But the scales looked far less tough and dense than their father's, and even some important places were not covered by scales.

Of course, there is a possibility that they are too young and the scales have not yet grown, and another possibility is that the blood vessels are thin, which leads to this phenomenon.

Allen thought of this when he first thought about this matter, so he ordered an additional thousand sets of vests as their extra protection.

After another two or three years, these little guys will grow up, and Allen will do some tests on their endurance and speed. When there are no problems at all, large-scale breeding will begin.

At that time, it is estimated that the stallions of Allen and the Twilight Knights will have to work hard in the stables, and not only that, even the mares they have been riding will have to be handed over to the giant. to breed the next generation.

All in all, it is to expand the group of elf horses as quickly as possible, and update Allen's cavalry team.

Of course, the premise of all this is that these foals can grow up healthily and vigorously. This requires the continued efforts of Tuoju. Gain the status of a brave man in the cabinet.

Naturally, he was ecstatic to hear Alan's promise. He regarded Alan as a god, and he naturally hoped to stay by Alan's side to listen to his teachings. It's not a problem to run to Alan's side every day because of his responsibilities.

If he could get a place in the cabinet, he would naturally be able to stay by Allen's side often. For this reason, Tuoju was full of enthusiasm for the tasks arranged by Allen.

It's just obvious that Tuoju didn't completely give up the idea of ​​treating Alan as a god because of Alan's instructions, but he still carried out Alan's orders very well, at least the Wrangler Village has not appeared to Alan now In the case of setting up the tablet, there was no sacrifice in Allen's name.

It was only last year that Tuoju found Jamila, and wanted to offer some beautiful and enchanting maids to Alan. Jamila, who had trained her heart for several years, broke down in this instant. Guarded.

Then, in order to defend her love, the 24-year-old girl asked Tuoju to give up the idea in a quiet exchange.

The kind-hearted Jamila did not deliberately embarrass Tuoju in her future work because of this incident. After all, she also knows that Tuoju is different from her cultural traditions. The Kujit nation originally allowed polygamy , it is very common to dedicate beautiful women to the Lord.

Allen has not known about this until now, even if he knew, he would probably pretend not to know.

This lord who has ruled tens of thousands of people spends most of the night thinking about how to improve his strength, how to improve the lives of the people, and how to use the skills of his previous life to gain more advantages .

Allen, who has been occupied with time and energy by these things, naturally reduces his demand for women.

It's just that the recent incidents between Allen and Caroline have touched Allen a lot. The boy in the past has found his own spring. Allen knows that he will soon be able to serve as an elder for himself. His men presided over the first wedding.

Alan didn't intend to spend the night in the herding horse village. After seeing the pony with elf blood, Alan was ready to leave, but before leaving, he brought a hundred cavalrymen who had assembled early, Hao He set foot on the road to the elf trail in a mighty way.

In fact, the closer to the north, the more dangerous it is. The evil hidden in the dry wilderness and the gray mountains is unknown. They were not completely wiped out in the battle a year ago. If they can't survive, they may take risks at any time , out of the mountains.

And Allen, who had learned a lesson on Jungle Road, is absolutely impossible to make the mistake of underestimating the enemy a second time.

When the group arrived at the Woodland Kingdom by boat, Thranduil warmly received Alan and his group. When they first met, the elf king casually glanced at the position on Jamila's chest.

He could clearly feel that Allen's magical equipment containing life breath was transferred to this little girl, and then Thranduil looked at Allen with some playful eyes, love?

However, this elf king is not someone who loves gossip. He didn't ask Allen about this matter, but kindly invited Allen and his party to stay with him for two days, even if it was a few people in Allen's team. A dwarf is no exception.

And Thranduy said that two days later, he would arrange for Legolas and Allen to go to the Lonely Mountain together to attend Thorin's enthronement ceremony.

Yes, Thranduil didn't want to attend Thorin's enthronement ceremony. If he could, he was not even willing to step into the Lonely Mountain. Anyway, the grievances between him and the dwarves were almost settled, and the family heirloom gem was also taken. Come back, this is a grand event for the dwarves, and he was able to send his son Legolas there, which can be regarded as maintaining the most basic courtesy to the dwarves.

Allen could understand why Thranduil did this. After all, in the past few hundred years, the dwarves really did not leave any particularly good impression on this kind elf king.

It's just that Allen also knows that Thranduil actually doesn't have much resistance to the alliance. It's just that as a condition, it must be brought up by the dwarves. This matter requires Allen to go to the Lonely Mountain To persuade Thorin.

Faced with Thranduil's gracious invitation, Allen naturally accepted it with pleasure, and then settled down in the Woodland Kingdom. After all, everyone had had a hard time walking all the way from Wilderness Town, so they could just take a rest here to deal with the more difficult problems later the way to go.

Two days later, Alan's team added more than a dozen elves on horseback, starting from the mountains where the woodland elves lived, and heading towards the Lonely Mountain along the original Smaug Wilderness.

And along the way, Alan and the others were not alone. After walking for several days in the still barren wilderness, they could often see caravans escorting various supplies passing by.

After talking, Allen learned some simple information. Most of them came from the Rovanian area in the south of the Lonely Mountain. After all, the news of the dwarves regaining the Lonely Mountain and the reconstruction of River Valley City has been in the past few months. spread throughout Middle-Earth.

Among them were even human merchants from Dowinion. They arrived here along the River Run with a large amount of goods, and wanted to exchange a batch of toys in Long Lake Town. As a result, Long Lake Town had already been attacked by Smaug. Almost destroyed.

Most of the people who live near Changhu Town now are residents who own fields on the shore, and the residents who have the craft of making toys follow Bud and are doing the work of rebuilding River Valley City. After all, carpenters are repairing houses. Among them, it is a very important craft.

However, the merchants from Dowinion didn't want to return empty-handed. They had no choice but to lead their caravans and continue to try their luck in the rebuilding River Valley City. After all, those toys are very popular. , and can even be exported to the southwest of Gondor.

If they didn't get the goods this time, they might lose money on this trip.

After the Battle of the Lonely Mountain, the commercial atmosphere in the eastern part of Rovanian recovered extremely quickly. It can even be said that this grand occasion has far exceeded the previous one. After all, most people know that the Lonely Mountain has buried countless wealth, but just now The dwarves who regained the Lonely Mountain would definitely need to buy a lot of supplies.

Therefore, all the human merchants in Rovanian took action and came to the lonely mountain with suitable supplies, hoping to exchange a lot of wealth with the dwarves.

Allen knew that they would be able to do it. Sorin did not lack gold and silver. He who was preparing for the enthronement ceremony lacked these. I have to say that the merchant's sense of smell for gold is really amazing.

As Alan and his party gradually approached the lonely mountain, he also found that many dwarves riding goats came from the east. Just looking at them, Alan always felt that something was wrong, because the costumes of these dwarves and the clothes of the iron hills The styles are not alike.

Frey, who was walking beside Allen at this time, introduced to Allen those dwarves who dressed in different styles.

"Master Allen, those are our relatives, from the black-haired clan of the seven major races of dwarves, and the dwarves from the iron-foot clan who acted with them over there, they live in the same mountain range, I think They must have rushed here immediately after receiving the news, because the place where they live is quite far away from here, almost as far as the Blue Mountains reach the Lonely Mountain."

Then Frey thought for a while, and continued: "Master Allen, can you allow me to leave for a while, I hope to welcome them from afar."

Allen waved his hand, indicating that Frey could move at will.

After a while, Frey with a serious face came back on the pony. After he came to Allen, he immediately brought Allen some bad news.

　Let’s talk about walking 250 kilometers in four days. In fact, according to my personal experience and information on the Internet, it is possible for ordinary people to walk 5 kilometers in an hour, but this speed cannot be maintained all the time. If I walk in a day It's 50 kilometers, and I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of bed the next day.

　　Soldiers, the most powerful I have ever seen. It should be that our army flew to Luding Bridge for a day and night for 240 Huali mountain roads, which should be more than 120 kilometers, and they can launch a fierce attack when they arrive there. I have to admire the strength of the ancestors. willpower.

　　Of course, there may be more and more powerful feats that I don't know, so there is no way.
