In the harsh winter, the weather is always gloomy and cold for a few days before a heavy snowfall. However, Rovanian, which has been cold for more than a week, turned from scattered ice flakes to the sky within a few minutes of the snowflakes starting to fly.
, turned into heavy snow like goose feathers.
This makes the boundless wilderness filled with silver.
Ashur, who was running away frantically, looked at the snowflakes flying in the sky and smiled as if he had survived the disaster.
The heavy snow fell at such an appropriate time, which made Ashur feel that this was the blessing of Lord Demon King. He finally survived this crisis, because it was impossible for the cavalry to run wildly in such weather, and the heavy snow also
The traces of their escape will be covered in a very short period of time, and those nasty birds will no longer be able to fly in the heavy snow.
He was safe, but the number of men following Ashur was reduced by more than two-thirds. They used their lives to delay the enemy's pursuit and buy crucial time for their leader to escape.
Even though Ashur is like a lost dog at this moment, he still has subordinates who are loyal to him.
Ashur also abandoned his heavy chariot and replaced it with a faster Dongyi war horse, because at the beginning of his escape, he was already possessed by fear, and subconsciously just wanted to stay away from the battlefield immediately.
I never considered whether a chariot was suitable for escaping.
At that time, he just glanced casually and knew that the cavalry troops on the opposite side would definitely not be less than 3,000 people. And the moment he regained consciousness, he saw the figure of the elves among them, and the equipment did not come from
The elf of the dark forest.
Their styles are completely different, and they look much better than those nasty ghosts living in the Black Forest. Ashur probably guessed the origin of these elves.
Even though he lived in a remote place like Rune, Ashur, who held a high position, knew some things. Sometimes Sauron was willing to share some information with his "loyal" subordinates when assigning tasks.
Ashur knows that the elves opposite do not belong to the Woodland Kingdom. Whether they are the Galadhrim people from the Golden Forest or the light elves from the last refuge, their combat power is far more powerful than the Silvans under Thrandu Yin.
Much.
Moreover, Ashur also knows that the closer the gathering point of life is to the elves in the west, the more developed their civilization will be.
Seeing an elf army of this size, Ashur knew that his battle had failed. At that time, he was so frightened that he only thought of escaping, and he forgot about everything else.
Ashur, who calmed down during the escape, thought of a lot based on the information he had.
Some time ago, a Nazgûl from Mordor suddenly flew to him and brought an order from the Lord Demon Lord, asking him to make some noise after a while to contain the dwarves of the Lonely Mountain and the woodland of the Black Forest.
Elf.
At that time, Ashur had guessed that the war between Mordor and Gondor should have reached a crucial moment.
It was just that with his strength at the time, it was simply impossible to face the tripartite coalition of elves, dwarves, and humans. A head-on confrontation would cause huge losses, and he might even be driven out of Rovanian. However, in order to fulfill the Lord Demon Lord's order,
Ashur still plans to do something.
That is, he made a plan to plunder the area south of the River Run. As long as he can defeat the northerners living there and continue to arrange for some tribesmen to establish gathering points there, he will surely be able to successfully attract the attention of humans and elves, at least
Increase pressure on the opposing defense.
As for the dwarves, Ashur had never thought about what he could do to the dwarves. How could he threaten the dwarves living in the mountains unless he brought out an army of orcs?
In addition to being able to complete the task, Ashur also needs to plunder the place and obtain some supplementary labor force. If this thing is completed very smoothly, it will kill two birds with one stone.
However, before he started to do this, he was attacked first, and then he saw the figures of other elven forces at the moment of the decisive battle.
In the process of thinking over and over, Ashur somewhat understood why his opponent suddenly had so many elven cavalry.
That is, these elves are most likely to support Gondor's reinforcements, and coming here to attack them is just a matter of convenience, or to solve some of their worries.
Ashur, who wanted to understand this, suddenly had other plans. After returning to the camp, he planned to leave the management of the tribe to his son Tad, and let him do the relocation work, because in the past
With the current strength of the tribe, they can no longer stay in Rovanian.
Ashur will rush to Mordor as soon as possible and report the news to Sauron, who is preparing for the decisive battle with Gondor. For such important news, the Lord Demon Lord should give him some reward, no matter it is
Equipment, population, or supplies can all recover part of his losses.
Without careful calculation, Ashur knew that he had suffered heavy losses in this war, losing at least four-fifths of his strength, and the remaining ones needed to spend a lot of time and energy to appease and intimidate.
And this heavy loss naturally stems from the guy named Allen, and the guy in the colorful robe who provided false information also has a certain responsibility.
At this moment, Ashur was silently thinking, just wait, after he gains enough strength, he will not let them go.
The so-called "culprit" was chasing Ashur behind him at this time, but he had given up at this moment.
After finishing the frontal battlefield, Allen quickly caught up with Horimion, who had fought with the enemy for several times. There was no way, more than two hundred Dongyi cavalry desperately blocked Horimion, and they really stopped Horimion.
The speed of pursuit.
This allowed Ashur to escape from Hermione's sight, but it also allowed Allen to catch up with the footsteps of his own captain in the snowy environment.
At this moment, after the initial ice flowers fell, they quickly turned into snow water under the action of geothermal heat. The snow water was mixed with soil, and in such cold weather, it quickly turned into solid ice, and the flying goose feathers
Heavy snow soon covered it all.
Even an elf horse that is far superior to an ordinary war horse would find it difficult to run fast in such dangerous and abnormal terrain. By the time Allen found Hermione all the way, the surroundings were already covered in white, and heavy snow fell in a short period of time.
All identifiable marks were covered, including the footprints left by Ashur when he fled.
After spending a few dinars to activate the ability, Allen clearly saw the fleeing Ashur. In his sight, dozens of enemy figures were running on the snow, and through the northwest wind blowing snowflakes, he also determined
Ashur was indeed fleeing to the west.
But this was of no use. The snow was so heavy that it turned the surrounding area into a silvery white color in a short time. In such an environment, it was impossible for Allen to accurately find Ashu in this wilderness.
you.
And the most important thing now is no longer chasing the enemy, but how to lead the prisoners and soldiers to the camp not far away to survive the first severe cold.
There are very few creatures that can march and fight in such a cruel environment. Of course, this does not include the elves who can walk on the snow without leaving a trace. Even in a blizzard, Hermione can run briskly on the snow, but Ai
Lun still refused the guard captain's request to continue the pursuit.
The elves can walk freely in the snow, but it does not mean that they can also sleep in the wilderness in the wind and snow. At this time, the wind carries the snowflakes and swirls them past them.
Seeing this situation, Allen was worried that the next step was likely to be a blizzard that would rage for a long time. If you encounter such severe weather, losing your way is an extremely dangerous thing. For a Dongyi commander who has lost most of his power,
, it’s not worth taking such a risk with the most powerful force under Allen’s command.
Soon, Allen relied on the traces he left when he came, and led the chasing horsemen to find the large army not far behind him. By the time he came back, the snow had actually fallen deep. If he
If it takes too long, not to mention supporting Gondor in the future, finding a place to avoid the snow may be the only option.
At this time, Allen's men had almost cleaned the battlefield. The carriages and supplies left by the Dongyi people had also been collected, and all the armor and weapons taken off by the Dongyi soldiers were placed on the carriages.
It was already covered with a thin layer of snow.
For this, Allen must thank the Dongyi people for their fighting customs. Otherwise, he may have to give up these supplies temporarily and wait until the snow melts and the spring flowers bloom to look for these trophies again next year.
The number of captured Dongyi prisoners was even larger, and the elves were a great help. They gave up riding horses in such a snowy weather, and instead walked on the soft snow in the eyes of humans in surprise, and their
Behind him are groups of bound Dongyi people.
In such weather, most of the Dongyi people who fled could not escape the tracking of the elves. Even if a small number of Dongyi soldiers hid their bodies with the help of heavy snow, how could they survive without horses? In the end, they were nothing more than a wolf.
It's just a dead end.
Lindir looked at these dejected prisoners with some worries in his heart. The extremely old and experienced Noldor elf could naturally guess what the human king was thinking, but he did not have any good impressions of these comers from the east.
In the past, these people from the East had betrayed them. This was Lindir's personal experience.
In fact, the elves only trusted the Yindians, the descendants of the Houses of Beor, Hador, and Haradin.
For example, the Númenóreans all come from these three families. They made great contributions in the War of Wrath, and thus received the blessings of the Valar. They have bloodline far beyond that of ordinary humans. They proudly call themselves
They are called high-level humans, and then those humans who are not enemies but not so noble are called middle-level humans, and those who surrender to Sauron are called dark humans.
Although he has never expressed it publicly, Allen scorned this classification, believing that it was not a correct idea.
Allen feels that the higher the ability, the more responsibility needs to be taken on. In this process, people with responsibilities can enjoy the respect of others, and can also have wealth and rights that ordinary people cannot obtain, but this ability cannot be
, as capital to look down on others.
So what about the people of Gondor who think they are noble? Without the help of northern humans, they would have been wiped out by Sauron hundreds of years ago. Even powerful people need help from others in times of crisis.
Even if they don't have that strong ability.
As for the people living in Eriador, they more or less have a certain relationship with the Haradin family, even the Dunlanders living in the Dark Land. Don't look at their current behavior.
My ancestors also assisted the elves properly and fought against Morgoth's minions in the past.
The northern humans ruled by Allen are mostly related to the Hador family. Some of them are members of the Hador family who stayed on this side of the Misty Mountains. There are also some who refused to go to Númenor and returned to their ethnic groups, such as
Riverdale City and the Kingdom of Rohan all originated here.
Even after thousands of years have passed, the elves will occasionally help humans overcome difficulties in critical moments because of their past friendship. For example, the founding king of Rohan, "Young" Eorl, who led
When the tribesmen went south to support Gondor, they were blocked by Sauron.
The insidious and cunning Dark Lord, hiding in the fortress of Dol Guldur, released a darkness towards the Rohirrim, blocking their way south. At this time, a white mist floated from Lothlórien,
This mist hid the Rohirrim, allowing them to travel south safely, helping Gondor win the war, and even established the Kingdom of Rohan after the war.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! You don’t need to think about it, you know that it was Lady Galadriel who helped the Rohirrim.
In addition, the elves have always been in contact with the descendants of the Yintian people, but thousands of years have passed, and they are still very wary of the people coming from the east.
Lindir, who had hesitated for a long time, looked at Allen, who looked thoughtful, and finally did not express his concerns. On the one hand, his relationship with Allen did not reach the level of giving advice and suggestions.
Being deep is a very abrupt behavior, and Lindir, who handles things very methodically, will not make such a mistake.
On the other hand, Lindir felt that the human king in front of him might not need to say anything. From his observation, today's battle was actually fought very beautifully, using infantry as bait to attract the enemy's attention.
, at the right time, let a large number of cavalry appear on the enemy's flank, causing confusion in the enemy, and easily won the victory.
Especially when Kurda persuaded the stubborn enemy to surrender at the end, Lindir felt that Allen was too well prepared for this battle.
Completing such a combat operation requires not only the reasonable use of soldiers, but also a good understanding of the strength comparison between the enemy and ourselves, and most importantly, some understanding of the psychology of the enemy leader.
In fact, even Lindil never thought that with the appearance of our cavalry, the enemy's leader would choose to escape at the first opportunity, causing a massive rout of the enemy army and making this battle extremely easy.
In his opinion, it was definitely possible to win, but he never thought it would be so easy.
In fact, Allen, who made this plan, did not think of this. He used this method to complete this decisive battle more because he wanted to reduce the damage to the cavalry, especially the damage to the horses.
Because Allen has decided to go south to support Gondor.
