Chapter 143 Rohan

The troops fought a fierce battle with the wargs on the banks of Anduin's river.

After resting by the river for five days, we were ready to enter Rohan along the ford of Shuang Loop.

The troops were able to set off so quickly, thanks to the Durin dwarves who were proficient in forging and quickly repaired the weapons and equipment damaged during the battle.

Also thanks to Allen's extremely fast recovery of strength, most of the injured soldiers were given secondary treatment to allow them to recover faster.

Gandalf was really surprised when he saw Alan treating the wounded for the first time.

However, despite being surprised, he also felt a very familiar aura from Allen's body.

That is the aura of Varda, the "Lighter".

Star Queen gave Allen eyes that could see the underworld, and her aura would naturally accompany Allen.

And this aura once scared off Saruman who wanted to do something ugly.

But the white-robed wizard was soon blinded by the desire to rule.

Without wisdom, he ignored the warning at the meeting and actually attacked Allen again. It was Gandalf who helped Allen at that time.

Gandalf, who once served Manwe in Valinor, is naturally very familiar with this scent.

Even the memory of Valinor was like a dream in Gandalf's mind.

But the gray-robed wizard still found the source of the breath.

Gandalf, who understood everything, naturally knew that Alan had been recognized by Valinor.

So he won't ask any more questions about his friends' privacy and power.

After the entire team was repaired, Lady Galadriel also said goodbye to everyone and returned to Lothlórien with the Galadhrim.

Because the Galadhrim ambush in the forest did not stop all the orcs who fled into the Black Forest.

There are many evil minions who have escaped the ambush and escaped into the darkness of Dol Guldur, which requires precautions.

The Eagle King, who was greedy for good wine and food and stayed here for a while, told Gandalf angrily not to keep sending him messages when there was nothing wrong. He was also very busy.

Gandalf nodded frequently with a smile on his face, indicating that he understood.

But Allen knew that if the opportunity was right, Gandalf would not hesitate to ask the Eagle for help if needed.

And the Eagle King will never stand by and ignore Gandalf's request.

In Allen's opinion, this is very arrogant.

The third marshal of Rohan was full of shock and curiosity at the scene before him.

Ever since the Rohirrim people moved to Carenna Pines, where the terrain is open, the water, grass, and wind are warm, they have lived an extremely stable life of grazing and planting.

During this period, they focused more on the Orcs in the White Mountains, the Dunlanders in the Black Barbarian Land, and the eastern enemy, the evil Mordor.

The races further north are rarely seen. For example, dwarves and elves rarely set foot in Rohan, let alone the great eagles that stay in the Misty Mountains all year round.

Over the past hundreds of years, many things have become legends in Rohan. Who would have thought that the ancestors of the Rohirrim once killed a cold dragon in the north?

And he also started a feud with the Durin dwarves.

It's just that this long-standing hatred is no longer in the memory of human beings with short life spans.

Therefore, Yin Oros's subordinates did not have any conflict with the dwarves led by Feili.

It's just that some dwarves and humans ride on the same horse, which makes these brave men on horseback look sideways.

There was nothing that could be done about it. In the battle with the wargs, the dwarves did not die too much, but their mounts suffered heavy casualties.

Although Allen had some foresight and brought some ponies suitable for dwarves to ride.

However, the losses of the dwarves were not fully compensated. Some of the dwarves had to take off their heavy equipment and ride with their subordinates.

The dwarves who were being watched were muttering with reluctance, because they really didn't want to control such a big animal.

But in order to hurry, to get to Gondor as quickly as possible and complete the mission entrusted to them by the King of the Lonely Mountain, the dwarves could only do so reluctantly.

Then, under the guidance of Yin'oros, the entire team crossed the Anduin River and began to march along the periphery of Fangorn Forest towards West Emnet.

Because the Ent River in front of them only had a beach for the army to cross in the section close to the forest.

The further south you go, the more rapid the River Ent becomes, and the riverbanks become steeper, making it impossible to pass.

When it reaches the southernmost point and joins the Anduin River, it is a swamp known as the Wet Plains.

If there are no ships, don't even think about passing there.

After crossing the Ent River, the plains with green grass sprouts are not as uninhabited as East Emnet.

Allen saw many villages on this vast plain, where a large number of residents built villages and houses and lived a herding life.

Even near some villages, small pieces of land will be reclaimed to grow some crops.

After the village elders recognized the Rohan hussars, they would often arrange for the villagers to send sweet ale and plump lambs to entertain this army.

The young men who can join Yoon Red are the best riders in Rohan, and they are also the most brave warriors who charge at the front in the battle.

This will naturally gain the respect of the Rohirrim.

Allen will also take this opportunity to buy some supplies here, the most important of which are some fresh meat and some wine.

Even the elves can't bear to eat lambas and dry food every day. After a long journey, good food and wine can always soothe the tired body and mind.

In fact, in these turbulent years, Rohirrim generally would not receive strangers, especially large-scale armies.

Although they are passionate and impulsive, they only treat their allies.

In fact, any stranger setting foot on this grassland without the permission of the King of Rohan is violating the laws of Rohan.

Under normal circumstances, whenever patrolling soldiers find a stranger, they will be taken to Edolas and wait for the king's trial in the Golden Palace.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, the Rohirrim are not bloodthirsty, on the contrary, they are very kind, as long as they are not enemies, or enter this grassland with the purpose of harming them.

Most people can leave here intact, even if the greedy and money-grubbing Fengel rules Rohan.

However, he would always ask for some "symbolic" tolls, which also made the other lords of Rohan very dissatisfied.

There is no such tradition among horsemen.

However, with Third Marshal Mark as a guide, Allen's unit will naturally not encounter any problems.

A group of several thousand riders arrived at Edoras smoothly and stationed outside the city to rest for a day.

Allen also took his friends and walked around Edoras casually.

It is said that the life of the Rohirrim people is quite boring, and Allen can't even find decent shops or places to relax on the streets.

Even the royal city of Rohan only has a few taverns.

And they are very reluctant to sell horses, because they regard horses as their companions and value them above all else.

However, they were not without commodities. In addition to domesticating horses, they also domesticated sheep, and would exchange some dairy products and furs for some things they needed.

For example, steel that can be used to make weapons and armor, or some daily necessities that are not produced by the Rohirrim.

Compared to Gondor, their life was not that rich, but the Rohirrim people's mental outlook was quite healthy, and they lived very happily on this plain.

It's just that the recent war has made them worry about their prince and the young men who follow him to the battlefield.

Of course, Allen's purpose was not to visit Edoras, but to go to Meduseld, the palace of the kings of Rohan, accompanied by Yin'olos.

I have to say that there are always some strange things in this world. For example, although the roof of Meduseld is made of thatch, it emits the light of gold under the sun.

Even Allen didn't understand the principle and why.

And here, Allen also met Sengel's wife, "Gondor" Morwen.

He also gave a fluorescent pearl necklace as a gift to Sengel's daughter, which was regarded as a gift for the elders to meet the younger ones.

When Mowen saw that the gift was so valuable, she wanted to refuse it, but remembering her husband's praise of Allen in the past and James's dedicated care of Fengel, she finally accepted it.

Because it is foreseeable that the friendship between Allen and Sengel will become even deeper on the battlefield in the future.

Then the contact between the two royal families will become more frequent. It is just a pearl necklace, which is actually nothing.

Morwen of Gondor was not of low origin either.

However, Mo Wen, who was in power at this time, also gave Allen a gift in return, which was the right to travel freely within Rohan.

As long as the team carries the royal banner of Allen, they will be warmly received by the Rohirrim wherever they go in Rohan.

The alliance between the two countries was officially concluded at this time.

Afterwards, Allen also met with Fengel, who was in stable condition, and proposed the idea of ​​taking James away.

Although he was very reluctant to let go, Fengel still returned James to Allen.

After so many years of nursing care, his condition has long since stabilized. Even with James by his side, he could not make any more treatments for his disease.

The next steps are just maintenance, such as not drinking alcohol, not eating excessive amounts of fat, exercising appropriately, etc., and other precautions.

But who would dislike having a doctor with superb medical skills by his side?

After a few years, Allen's old friend James also returned to him again.

It can be said that James has worked hard in the past few years and made great contributions to the friendship between Rohan and Rovanian. Allen doesn't know how to thank him.

James had no other request. Instead, he had a strong desire to go to Gondor to have a look and appreciate the customs and customs there.

In this doctor's impression, people on horseback are always vicious and cruel. A typical example is the Kugits who often come out of the grasslands to plunder other countries.

However, the enthusiasm and kindness of the Rohirrim people completely changed James's view, and also made him very curious about Gondor further south.

Because in the eyes of the Rohirrim, Gondor in the south is more prosperous, and the people there are richer and friendlier.

Once upon a time, the vast Kalenna Pine was given to the horseman.

This is indeed a wise and far-sighted decision.

At this time, James was full of longing for this southern country.

However, the war made James's first impression of Gondor extremely disappointing.

After several days of trekking, the troops led by Allen and Childan made simple repairs at Fort Ald.

Then, amid a reluctant farewell from Yin Oros, they crossed the Merlin River.

Enter one of Gondor's northernmost fiefdoms, Anorion.

As soon as the army crossed the river, they saw a large number of poorly clothed residents working in the fields.

There are also many children who are thin and yellow-faced, looking for anything edible by the river and at the edge of the forest.

But at this time, we have just passed the Wind Moon, which is March when all things begin to sprout. How much food can be grown from the soil?

Most of the children just left empty-handed with disappointment on their faces.

Most of these residents fled here from further south to escape the war.

When they were working in the fields and saw this elite force composed of humans, dwarves, and elves, their eyes showed hope.

Because they learned from word of mouth that in addition to the Kingdom of Rohan, Gondor also had a supporting army on the way, and that supporting army was composed of mysterious and powerful elves.

After the reinforcements arrive, they will be able to drive away the enemies of Gondor and restore the peaceful life in the past.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, soon, they lowered their heads in fear under the curious gaze of many soldiers.

After all, Alan and the others are not the local army of Gondor.

When being stared at by a strange and powerful person, residents will naturally feel fear, even if the other person's eyes are not malicious.

At this time, Mordor had occupied Cair Andros for three months, which made Anorion's land near the Anduin River very dangerous.

Even Sengel led the Rohan Hussars and established a line of defense near the Druadan Forest to guard against enemy attacks.

But there are still a large number of residents who lost their homes and fields under the threat of orcs and Vagorians, and fled to the vicinity of the Merlin River to avoid the war.

These years, their lives have not been easy.

Of course, this does not mean that the Gondor nobles of Anorion abandoned their subjects, but that most of the Gondor nobles also had a difficult life in this battle.

There are no important towns in Anorion except Minas Tirith at the very edge.

There are only some scattered villages and manors, and the Gondor nobles here are not particularly powerful.

What they were most concerned about at this time was how to cooperate with Rohan's army to resist the invasion of Mordor.

And most of the resources must be used in war.

According to this era, it was possible to distribute food to the people who had lost their homes without letting them starve to death completely.

He also found a place for them to live and protected the people on the front line.

It is enough to show that these nobles are quite benevolent.

This is much better than the nobles of Calradia who forcibly requisition food and people.

But even so, the kind-hearted James still had a hard time accepting it when he saw those poor children.

At his pleading, Allen ordered his team to put down some rations.

Of course Allen knew that this would not solve the basic problem, but it would be good for those children to have a full meal in the near future.

Such a kind act naturally earned the gratitude of the people nearby.

This made them look at this team with less fear than at first.

At this moment, a cavalry team came over from the east.

The leader was a flag with a green background, and a white horse seemed to be galloping on the grassland with the flag fluttering.

This naturally represents the arrival of Senger.

The other flag depicts a soldier holding a spear.

Malherby told Alan that this coat of arms represents the most powerful Gondor nobleman in Anorion, Alger, who is known as the "tough and brave".

According to rumors, this lord once led the spearmen in his family to fight bravely against a group of orcs that escaped from the White Mountains.

Even though he was injured, he still led the soldiers to pursue them and drove the orcs deep into the mountains, thus protecting the safety of the area.

Since then, he has been known as "Tough and Brave".

The two people's arrival was naturally due to reports from their subordinates.

Reinforcements have arrived.
