Chapter 43 A smooth rendezvous

This attack was extremely sudden for the Dongyi people who were escorting the prisoners. The Dongyi captain who was shot to death by Allen's arrow at the beginning may not have figured out why he was at this time until the end of his life.

This position is under attack from the enemy.

This was too sudden, and the sentries he sent out did not send back any news at all.

For the Twilight Knights, this battle ended too quickly, and there was no thrill of fighting at all. After clearing the eyes around the team, while quickly approaching the enemy team, the Twilight Knights

Under the leadership of Lun, only two rounds of extremely precise arrow rain were launched, which already killed all the opponent's mobile power.

Afterwards, the Twilight Knight, who pulled out the Noldor-sigil sword and enchanted shield, directly defeated the Dongyi infantry who had barely gathered together in a high-speed charge.

With a small number of people, they used their unstoppable power to break the enemy's illusion of continuing to resist. Then, the entire battle quickly entered the boring pursuit stage, which was just a one-sided massacre.

If there were anyone watching the battle, they would be extremely surprised to find that more than half of the Dongyi soldiers escorting the dwarves were killed by Allen and the eleven personal guards led by him in just one encounter.

people.

This is enough destructive power to stun any small battle.

Those Dongyi people who were lucky enough not to die realized what terrible things had happened to them after a short period of confusion. The fear that was enough to make people collapse instantly occupied their hearts, causing the living people to act normally.

or abnormal behavior.

Some people simply dropped their weapons in a state of extreme fear, yelling and running wildly in the wilderness, without even considering that their two legs could not run with four legs.

But some people used their fingers harder, clenching the strange-shaped iron spears tightly, shouting unknown words in their mouths, provoking the knights in shining armor who were cruising around, and then they were shot by a rapidly flying arrow.

He left Arda with his captain.

There were even more surrenderers who knelt on the ground and gave up resistance. Although these people were very frightened, they still managed to retain their rationality and took the approach that was most likely to save their lives.

The most surprising thing, apart from the two Dongyi horses pulling the chariot that suddenly lost their masters, was probably the dwarves who were shackled at the hands and feet and were starved to the point of being reduced to skin and bones.

Although the elf knights who suddenly appeared did not attack them, these dwarves still maintained sufficient vigilance. They were extremely courageous and ignored the tense situation around them and picked up many weapons scattered by the Dongyi people from the ground.

, and handed it over to his companions to protect him.

The black-haired tribe living in the east has not had much interaction with the elves in the west, but among their tribes, there are also rumors of tense relations between elves and dwarves. I am afraid that I have to thank Thorin for this. This guy is

I'm afraid there was a lot of bad words said about elves during that special period.

"Which one is Dayev?" Allen, who had just returned from the chariot, looked at the nervous dwarves and asked loudly, and Dayev was Tehar's cousin, just like Dine and Dyne.

Thorin's relationship is the same.

"I am." As the person with the highest status among this group of dwarves, Dayev still barely maintains the most basic dignity. Although the most valuable accessory on his body is the pair of iron shackles that restrain him, Dayev's

The beard is still in a smooth state, not as messy as other dwarves, as if there is a weed on the face.

It's just that under his beard, Dayev's relatively clean face had an expression of surprise, because the shout he heard just now seemed to be standard dwarf language, which made him a little unsure of the fate of the tall and sturdy powerful cavalry in front of him.

Who is he?

Just a bunch of keys suddenly flew over, making Dayev throw away all the doubts in his heart, and took them very quickly, because this represented the freedom that he had lost for several years, and it was also the place where Dayev and his tribe were.

What you want most at this moment.

"Your leader Tehar has now become my subordinate, and he has given you your freedom in exchange for your loyalty. This is what he gave you."

As he spoke, Allen took out a wooden barrel and threw it over. It contained a letter written by Tehar himself. The dwarf's writing had the smell of rock, and there were various changes in the hardness. Anyway, he

I don't know a single word.

Dayev, who opened the shackles and took out the letter, did not respond to Allen's words. He was naturally grateful for the kindness of saving his life, but for dwarves, loyalty to a human being is really unbelievable, even if it is said that it was passed down in ancient times.

This kind of story has never appeared in any of the songs.

It was just the content of the letter that made Dayev's face even more surprised. Although his cousin Tehar rushed to Gushan under the cover of many tribesmen, his subsequent encounters were not particularly smooth. This series of changes were enough.

It makes people feel emotional.

But what makes Dayev happy is that his efforts during the long and humiliating wait were not in vain. Most of the existing tribesmen finally waited for rescue, but they were not the same as the one he originally thought would be Du Lin, who had retaken the Lonely Mountain.

A clan.

After all, his grandfather, his uncle, and his father had personally participated in the war against the orcs, so the people who came should be Durin dwarves, not elves or humans.

However, Dayev did not hate Thorin as the king of Durin. In the letter, Tehar said that Thorin took good care of him and promised to rescue the captured tribesmen at the right time. After all, according to the solitary

The current population of the mountain does not have the strength to attack Rune in a large scale.

Most of the places where the Dongyi people live are unobstructed wilderness. Facing chariots, cavalry, hounds and a large number of infantry, the dwarves do not have an advantage. In the final analysis, it is because the warriors they can dispatch are really

There were too few, and the dwarves were not good at blitzkrieg, so they could easily be held back by the Dongyi people who came after hearing the news.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! At that time, whether to save people or give them away will become an unknown thing, and Thorin still sees this very clearly.

Before that, Thorin also suggested that Tehar follow his own example of taking back the Lonely Mountain and form an expedition team to save his people. He was also willing to provide him with a job to earn money, and then he would be replaced by Ai Haer.

Is Lun coming?

As for why Thorin did not directly provide the wealth to form the expedition team, it was because Tehar refused. The young dwarf leader also knew very well that once he accepted the wealth given by Thorin, then Lonely Mountain would probably not

He sent troops to save his people.

It is a matter of course that a favor should be exchanged for proper help, but in the end this favor was exchanged for Tehar's life. Although Allen did not think about killing him, Thorin and Tehar felt that

Everyone understands that they are already clean with each other.

Looking at the short but quite complicated letter, Dayev could barely figure out the reason. He looked at Allen who was calm and composed on the horse, and clenched his thick right hand into a fist, "Bang" "Bang"

"Bang" and beat him three times on his chest.

This is the etiquette for dwarves to express their allegiance. Unlike humans, they generally do not kneel to the object of their allegiance. In dwarf culture, kneeling only means asking for forgiveness and has no other meaning.

"My lord, everything my cousin Tehar said will come true. From now on, we will serve you until we are recalled to the Hall of Mandos."

"I promise to provide you with a suitable place to live, I promise to provide you with enough food, and I promise to provide you with a job that you love until the contract between us ends."

Allen responded to Dayev who expressed his allegiance in a loud and powerful voice, and then took out a bag of food from behind his cloak. After dismounting, he placed it next to the dwarf along with several water bags. This scene was quite shocking.

Dayev's eyelids twitched again, as he had been observing Allen.

He had not noticed that there were so many things on the horse before, but Dayev did not ask, because after all, they were the creations of Aulë and were born with some extraordinary powers.

The food Allen brought out was not too much. There were fruits, sausages, and dried meat. For the dozens of dwarves present, it was just a way to fill their bellies. It was far from full, but for now

It is enough for the situation.

Now is not a good time to hold a banquet. The Twilight Knights who are chasing the Dongyi soldiers are still killing people. Allen needs the dwarves who have regained their freedom to pick up weapons and guard the prisoners kneeling on the ground after regaining their strength. And he himself

Then he left a sentence, "Dayev, take care of your people." Then he set out to hunt again.

Allen was going to collect the Dongyi war horses running around, as well as the two-horse chariot that could carry many people. They would still need some help when they retreated later. If allocated properly, it would be better than walking.

Very fast.

As for Fatis's support, I'm afraid it will take a while to arrive. Allen summoned him to deal with unexpected situations, not to attack this slave convoy, which was just a hundred ordinary Dongyi soldiers. If

Instead of worrying about accidentally injuring the dwarves, it would only take a few chain lightning strikes to kill them.

The roars and shouts gradually subsided in this land, leaving only the calming sound of horse hooves and the gradually clearer noise. The dwarves are really a tough and magical race, who have just escaped from the life of imprisonment.

The black-haired people immediately became happy because of the delicious food.

What made them even more happy was that the water in the water bag was not water, but fragrant and mellow beer. In their opinion, this was already a moment worth celebrating.

But compared to his heartless tribesmen, Dayev's mood was filled with joy and a hint of sadness, because not all of his tribesmen were present.

In the tribe where the dwarves left, there were some black-haired dwarves. Although they were not from the same tribe as Dayev, they helped each other when they were enslaved and established a relatively deep relationship.

So the freed Dayev wanted to help them, but he didn't know how to speak to his new human leader. He could only silently follow Allen's orders and let his people reluctantly get on human war horses and move towards the west.

.

Allen, the Dongyi people who surrendered, did not execute them. Instead, he tied up all the prisoners of war with a rope and asked them to run behind the horses.

Facts have proved that when faced with life-threatening threats, although humans will not break through their own boundaries and have the same explosive speed as horses, their durability is relatively excellent. As long as the speed is reduced to a certain level, they can run at a constant speed.

For a long time, especially these Dongyi people who usually enjoy hunting.

In this way, the eleven Twilight Knights dispersed throughout the wasteland, alerting the surrounding situation. Although most of the Middle-earth areas are vast and sparsely populated, especially where the Dongyi people live, they must be prepared for unexpected events.

Vigilance is never superfluous.

Allen, on the other hand, brought about twenty war horses, a chariot full of dwarves, and a long list of Dongyi prisoners of war following the team, and headed towards the Red Water at a speed that was barely acceptable.

Go in the direction of the river.

It wasn't until two or three hours later that a blue and gray bird flew across the sky, followed by the rumble of horse hooves, and a torrent of silver and green appeared in the team's field of vision. Judging from the number of people, there were enough people.

There are as many as seven to eight hundred people.

Silver is a heavily armored knight wearing full plate armor. Now they have replaced their mounts with the blood of pure Jatu war beasts. Their excellent endurance is enough to carry the fully armed knights for long distances. Of course, the premise is that they cannot give

War horse armor.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The green one is the knight attendant wearing a robe and chain mail. Drawn on the robe is the emblem representing Allen, the crown and three-star flag on the green background.

The bloodlines of the warhorses they ride are mixed and thin, some are of the bloodline of elven horses, and some are of the bloodline of Jatu war beasts, but they are still far better than ordinary horses.

For their superb equestrian skills, they did not need one person or three horses to run for three or four hours. However, according to Allen's order, they still brought spare horses, which made the entire team appear even larger.

It looked like there were nearly 2,000 people there.

However, the current situation was somewhat beyond Allen's expectation. He could see at a glance that Fatis had brought out all the knights and trained attendants.

Allen's original idea was just to ask Fatis to bring a cavalry team to support him. One or two hundred people would be enough, and there was no need for so many.

Seeing the vast number of subordinates, Allen waved his hand to stop the team behind him, while he himself knocked on his head with messy hair and had other thoughts in his mind.

In fact, Fatis is not to blame for such a thing happening. This is because the order given by Allen was somewhat ambiguous. If he had just said that he wanted one or two hundred people, this situation would not have happened. However, as far as the situation at that time was concerned, Ai

Most of Lun's thoughts were focused on rescuing the dwarves.

If he was blackmailed by Barr or forced to kill Barr, Allen would laugh at himself when talking about it in the future, so he would be slightly less thoughtful when issuing orders.

However, this situation is not a bad thing. Even if you come, you have to do something before you leave.
