Standing at a high place, Allen could have a panoramic view of the battlefield beneath his feet. After looking at it for a while with a heavy heart, he knew that his trip was most likely in vain.
As the Dongyi people launched a massive attack, the defenders on the city wall of Tiebi Town soon became unable to withstand the attack. The first to collapse were the defenders blocking the siege tower.
In addition to facing endless Dongyi soldiers, they also have to be constantly on guard against the rain of arrows shot from under the city wall. The elites at the front who are extremely well-equipped can naturally be ignored. However, the elites are only a few after all, and a large number of them are armed with long weapons.
The militiamen who used spears to assist in killing quickly suffered heavy casualties under the attack of arrows and retreated from the city wall.
The elite defenders who lost the support of the militia were soon forced back by the tide of enemies. Even if these defenders were equipped with sophisticated mail armor purchased from Iron Hills, they could not withstand the influx of enemies one after another.
Many elite defenders were directly attacked by some crazy-looking enemies. Even if the weapons in their hands had penetrated into the enemy's vital points, these crazy enemies did not let go of their hands even if they lost their lives. They were killed by the enemy's corpse.
The restrained elite defenders were immediately crushed to the ground by several enemies who followed, and died tragically with knives or big sticks.
No matter how well-equipped the equipment is and how powerful the individual combat effectiveness is, before the critical point is exceeded and faced with a huge number of enemy troops, the battle formation is always the key for ordinary soldiers to defeat the enemy and win with less.
Now that the defenders of Tiebi Town collapsed with the collapse of the militia, the elite array was immediately dispersed and then overwhelmed by the Dongyi people. This section of the city wall was declared undefended.
As for the defenders guarding other parts of the city wall, in addition to dealing with the enemies climbing the ladders, they also had to deal with the enemy's direct attack from the city wall. Due to the huge gap in numbers, the entire city wall was soon destroyed.
The Yi people occupied it, and then the gate of Tiebi Town slowly opened under the control of the Dongyi people.
At this time, the battle has entered an even more brutal street battle, but the few remaining human defenders in the north will inevitably be unable to escape the fate of being defeated, waiting for them to either die or be enslaved.
Standing on the cliff, Allen watched the tragic scene happen before his eyes, his bloodshot eyes seemed to burst out with flames.
“These Sauron’s minions really deserve to die!
"
According to Allen's original plan, the northern humans who died tragically at the hands of the Dongyi people at this moment should be his help in fighting Sauron in the future. However, when Sauron did not act according to common sense, these originally
Northerners who should continue to have a stable life are now experiencing a fate different from their original destiny.
"etc!
What the Dongyi people are doing now seems to be caused by the changes I made in the Battle of Gushan. Could it be said that these people were killed by me?"
Allen, who suddenly thought of this, felt his hands and feet go cold for a moment. After he came to Middle-earth, he always hoped to do his best in everything he encountered, whether it was helping the skin-changing people,
It is still a shelter for forest dwellers who are always under the threat of orcs, and the feedback received is all good and positive.
The life of the skin-changers can be said to be happy and contented, and they are closely entangled with Allen's power. Under Allen's rule, the residents in the forest not only gained a stable living environment, but their living standards were also far better than before.
many.
However, Allen assisted Thorin in retaking Lonely Mountain this time, and greatly changed the outcome of the Battle of Lonely Mountain, which ultimately led to the massive invasion of Rovanian by the Dongyi people.
This incident suddenly made Alan realize that although the changes made at the moment can see excellent results immediately, you never know how serious the consequences of the changes will be.
"Are everything I did wrong? Shouldn't I forcefully change the outcome? Do I want to watch Thorin, Fili, and Kili die? Watch as one-third of the people in Changhu Town were killed or injured.
More than one? Watching the elves and dwarves being decimated in this battle?"
Fatis, who was standing aside, quickly noticed Allen who was behaving abnormally. He looked at Allen who was pale and frowning, not knowing that his good friend had fallen into self-doubt.
Fatis, who has been with Allen for nearly ten years, knows that Allen's character has a kind side. In the past, he saw the villages that were plundered and destroyed by nobles on the continent of Calradia. At that time, Allen often stood there.
It has been a long time at the entrance of the village, as if mourning the dead villagers.
At this moment, Fatis, who was very kind-hearted, thought that Allen was feeling sad and blaming himself because he was unable to help the northerners who died tragically below. He patted Allen on the shoulder and said: "Seeing the desire for stability,
I am also sad that the people who live in the world died under the butcher's knife of the invaders, but we have done our best to protect the stable lives of more people. In order to pursue salvation, I have been helping others. At the same time, I also understand
There is a truth, whether it is an individual or a country, the power is limited. Now, we really can't help them, but sooner or later, we will be able to do better. And, Alan, you have to understand that their experiences are not yours.
It's wrong, it's the fault of these invaders, Allen..., look over there!"
Allen, who was originally thinking wildly, suddenly woke up after being interrupted by Fatis. He already understood what happened to him just now.
"After seeing so many people die in the war, I actually got into trouble. I'm still not strong-willed enough. Look at Thorin, I'm really far behind. It's true that I changed the outcome of the Battle of the Five Armies.
This led to the Dongyi people under Sauron's massive attack on Rovanian. However, without my changes, wouldn't the Dongyi people not have invaded? That is absolutely impossible. Now that the situation is like this, I should
Think more about how to improve your own strength instead of doubting whether what you have done before is right or wrong."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! These thoughts flashed through Allen's mind. His face, which was still a little pale, soon returned to calm. At this time, Fatis was still chattering.
Talking about his insights on the road to redemption, Allen was going to wait for his friend to finish speaking before saying "Thank you."
However, before Fatis finished speaking, he pointed to a hidden corner of Iron Wall Town in surprise. If they had not stood condescendingly at the top of the mountain, Fatis and Allen would never have seen this scene.
At the cliff on one side of Ironbill Town, there were more than a dozen people standing at this time. Although the distance was a bit far away, Allen's eyesight was excellent. Judging from the faces, most of those people were teenagers.
One of the heavily armed middle-aged men seemed to be saying something to the children. Then he pointed to a hole opened on the cliff, but the children seemed not to be particularly willing, and they all raised their weapons and said
Something, but the middle-aged man's expression immediately became extremely stern, as if he was scolding the young man in front of him.
After a while, all the dejected young people got into the cave, and then a magical scene happened. The closed cave entrance did not leave a trace, and the worried middle-aged people placed a lot of baskets.
and abandoned wooden boxes, blocking a large area around the entrance of the cave. Then with a firm expression, he pulled out the long sword in his hand and ran towards the battlefield where fierce fighting was still taking place in the city.
This kind of cave that cannot be discovered after being closed is a skill of the dwarves. Some people also call this phenomenon unique to the dwarves. Whether it is Moria or Lonely Mountain, there are such doors, and some are voice-activated.
Yes, some require certain conditions to be met.
But when Allen looked at the middle-aged man's reaction, it was possible that this door was not as magical as the ones he had seen before. Otherwise, what would be the use of putting those shields in place?
Moreover, this cave may really be a small cave. Otherwise, why not let more people get in and take refuge?
"By the way, where are the other people in this town? I seem to have only seen young adults and soldiers?"
At this time, Allen certainly didn't know where the family members belonging to these defenders had gone, but he didn't think much about it. It would be better to have no women and children, and avoiding the fate of becoming slaves of the Dongyi people was also a good result.
If he hadn't seen this scene in the cave, Allen must have left at this time. The fate of Iron Wall Town has been determined. The enemy's power is too strong. Allen can't do anything. He can't do anything. He can't give in.
Let him gain the strength to fight the enemy head-on.
However, now, Allen decided to wait. If possible, he wanted to take away the dozen young people. After all, the wilderness was not safe now, and it was impossible for the Dongyi people to leave their horses and leave here on foot.
The land occupied by the Dongyi people is too dangerous. He does not have enough strength to save the entire town, but he can save the hope left in this town. It can be regarded as Allen doing his own small part.
But Allen waited for four full days. The Dongyi people, who had already won the war that day, reveled all night under Ashur's order. The materials originally used by the defenders for defense were in this
In the process, they were all moved away by the Dongyi people. The defenders who died on the battlefield were all piled up in the center of Tiebei Town under Ashur's order, and then set on fire.
This kind of behavior of the Dongyi people made Allen, who had been waiting for a long time, feel relieved. This shows that these guys will not occupy this town with decent fortifications, and then Allen can more easily rescue him.
A dozen young people trapped in a cave.
While waiting quietly, Allen also recognized his strongest opponent during this period, Ashur, the leader of the Baltra people. It was difficult not to recognize him.
The extremely luxuriously decorated covered carriage, pulled by four strong horses, walked smoothly from the Dongyi people's camp to the gate of Ironbill Town. The moment Ashur stepped off the carriage
, Allen noticed this Dongyi man who appeared in a very different way.
Ashur, who had just walked into the city gate, seemed to feel something. When he suddenly looked up, he found Allen who had no time to escape. The two of them looked at each other from a distance of several hundred meters.
Allen saw that the enemy leader had discovered that he was observing in secret. He no longer left in a hurry. Instead, he took out his Noldor Sigil Bow from behind. Under Ashur's surprised eyes, he pointed in his direction.
An arrow was shot.
This arrow was full of Allen's anger towards Ashur, but the distance between the two sides was too far. The arrow did not hit Ashur's vital point as Allen imagined, but only penetrated shallowly.
It fell into the armor on his shoulder, and was then pulled out from his shoulder by Ashur. The blood splashing out showed that this arrow still caused some damage to the Dongyi leader.
However, Ashur didn't care at all. With an angry look on his face, he gave orders to the surrounding soldiers to search the surrounding area. Then, a large number of Dongyi soldiers began to search towards the cliffs of Tiebi Town.
Because of this arrow, Allen hurriedly led his soldiers away from the enemy's search range. After hiding in a valley in the Iron Hills for two days, he climbed up the cliffs around Ironbill Town again.
At this time, most of the Dongyi people had left Tiebi Town. Ashur piled up the corpses of the defenders in the center of the city and burned them. Apart from venting his anger, he really didn't think much of the castle.

Although this town has good fortifications and the walls are high enough, its location is too remote and too close to the dwarves. It is impossible for Ashur to be stationed here.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Moreover, there is very little land around this town, and there is simply no room for hundreds of people to farm here. Now we have learned that there is a third-party force disrupting the situation, Ashu.
Er, it is absolutely impossible to divide your soldiers into groups and advance forward like before.
On the one hand, Ashur paid a heavy price in this battle to attack the town. The archers alone suffered more than 700 or 800 casualties. Even he, who had so many men, felt very distressed.
, the cannon fodder and slaves suffered nearly a thousand casualties, and this time it was considered a serious injury.
But the harvest did not meet Ashur's expectations. He didn't know why, but his men did not find the families of the defenders in this castle. And no matter how he tortured, he still captured dozens of prisoners.
They did not reveal where they were hiding.
What can give Ashur some comfort is that his men pulled out quite a lot of fine armors from the town's defenders, more than two hundred sets, and also found a lot of weapons. These weapons and equipment were slightly modified.
Once he changed it, he was able to form two hundred well-equipped elites.
Moreover, the large amount of supplies stored in the castle also greatly alleviated Ashur's food shortage. This was also the result of his warning to the officers before the battle, allowing them to seize the warehouse as soon as possible after entering the town.
Moreover, Ashur had already found the location of the warehouse through observation.
The only thing that Ashur felt was a pity was that the three trebuchets were destroyed by the defenders immediately. He still cared about those precision instruments. He once learned about siege equipment from some humans.
Build, if he can learn how to build a trebuchet, his strength will be even more powerful.
