The straight-line distance from Wilderness Town to the Elf Trail is only about a hundred kilometers long. In the original work, Thorin Oakenshield led the Lonely Mountain Expedition and rode a pony for about four days before completing this journey.
section of road.
This speed is not very fast. You must know that in the land of Middle-earth, someone can run 45 leagues in less than four days in an extremely angry situation, which is a distance of about 250 kilometers, and
Or a feat accomplished on foot in the wilderness.
Yes, it's Aragorn, the journey where Golas and Gimli chase the Orcs and try to save Merry and Pippin.
From this incident, we can see how strong the physical fitness of these biological sons and godsons of Yin Luweita is.
At this time, the sunship driven by Arian had just risen from the east. Thousands of golden lights poured down from the gaps in the clouds, illuminating Aren and his group who were walking north on the road. Now they had left the wilderness.
It’s the second day in town.
Since Artiman presided over the repair of this section of road, the speed from Wilderness Town to the Elf Trail has been much faster. It only takes less than a day for one person and two horses to run at the fastest speed.
Of course, Allen is not in a hurry now, because Thorin's enthronement ceremony is still more than a month away, so he can go slower and take Jamila, who rarely leaves the city, with him.
Prime Minister, take a look at the surrounding scenery.
Following the policies issued by Jamila, a large number of people moved out of Wilderness Town. They looked for places with convenient transportation and close to water sources in the vast wilderness between Wilderness Town and Muma Village, and initially established a large number of
's farm.
Along the way, Allen discovered more than a dozen wooden houses being built, as well as locals driving cattle to reclaim the land.
When the people who were working hard in the fields saw the crown and three-star flag shining brightly in the sun, they knew that their lord had arrived. They stopped their work one after another and looked towards Allen and his party from a distance.
People take off their hats in greeting.
When Allen saw someone saluting him, regardless of 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 people in his territory.
What happened along the way fully demonstrated the love that the people under his rule had for Allen.
As Allen felt all this, his heart was full of pride. This was the result of his five years of hard work, and it was also the result that he needed to protect in the future.
As for Yamila, who followed Allen out for the first time, she tied her long golden hair into a ponytail and wore red and white casual clothes that highlighted her graceful figure. Compared with five years ago, Yamila
Mira has also grown up a lot. Normally you can't tell it when she wears loose clothes, but now you can see it at a glance.
In order to cope with possible emergencies, Jamila also hung a warrior's sword on her waist, which invisibly added a bit of heroism to this soft-faced woman.
Due to her busy government affairs, Jamila rarely traveled such a long distance. The few times she went to Muma Village to deal with urgent official duties, but at that time she was traveling in such a hurry that she was not in the mood to appreciate the surrounding scenery.
At this time, Jamila was riding a maroon horse, chatting with Allen next to her from time to time, admiring the surrounding scenery, with a happy smile on her fair face. Under the sun, her beautiful face
It seems to be glowing.
Several dwarf craftsmen under Allen were riding ponies in the middle of the team. As Durin dwarves, they had to participate in this enthronement ceremony. Even Tire on the dense forest road was also setting off.
I rushed back all the way.
In the grass on both sides of the road, women's cheerful laughter could be heard from time to time. It was Kress and Grim who were playing with Juan.
Six fully armed Twilight Knights were doing reconnaissance work around on elf horses. Even though the surrounding area is much safer now, there are often cavalry patrols on this road.
But Allen still felt that he should take certain protective measures to avoid being caught off guard.
Bilbo Baggins, who was riding a pony, was chatting with Gandalf about something unknown. The two of them were holding their own pipes, blowing smoke rings one after another from time to time.
Allen was a little confused, couldn't Gandalf smoke all the tobacco? Moreover, these two people only cared about smoking for themselves, and did not talk about getting a bag for themselves!
However, Allen then looked at Jamila beside him, who was smiling brightly and looking forward to her glory, and silently gave up the idea in his heart. At this time, Jamila was in a lively conversation, and it was not a suitable time to leave.
Behind Allen are several packhorses carrying wine barrels. In order to celebrate Thorin's enthronement ceremony, Allen specially prepared more than a dozen barrels of fine mead. On the one hand, in order to celebrate him becoming the King of Durin,
On the other hand, it is to give Thorin a taste. If he or other dwarves like it, Allen will prepare to sell this kind of wine to the dwarves along the jungle road and the running river trade route.
As for why you don’t take the path of the Woodland Kingdom, even if Allen and Governor Thrand are allies, you still have to pay taxes. Even if you don’t have to pay taxes, you borrow roads from other people’s territories every day. This is also a debt of gratitude.
, it is better not to owe or not to owe.
As the group of people moved forward, there were two forks in the road. The one to the right led directly to the Elf Trail, while the one to the left led to the Muma Village.
Under the leadership of Allen, the entire team also set foot on the road to the Horse Wrangling Village, because a few days ago, the drag giant excitedly ran to Allen to report that the matter of breeding the descendants of the elf horse finally came to fruition.
This matter is related to Allen's creation of the heavy cavalry, which is one of the most important things in the past twenty years. Now that he has some clues, Allen will definitely go to Muma Village to take a look at the specific situation.
In fact, it is definitely not wrong to let Beorn, the 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.
Breed animals go to war.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So Allen finally gave up the idea. Since his friend didn't like it, why force him to do it? Let him try it first.
As nomadic people, raising horses is a skill ingrained in their bones.
When Allen saw dozens of foals bouncing around in the stables, he knew that this matter was probably done. The fine scales on the foal's body obviously inherited the blood of the elf horse.
However, the scales looked far less tough and tight than their father's, and even some important places were not covered by scales.
Of course, one possibility is that they are too young and their scales have not yet finished growing, and another, greater possibility is that their bloodline is thin, causing this phenomenon.
Allen had thought of this when he first started thinking about this matter, so he ordered a thousand additional sets of vests as extra protection for them.
In two or three years, when these little guys grow up, Allen will do some tests on their endurance and speed. When there are no problems at all, large-scale breeding will begin.
By then, 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 drag giant.
to breed the next generation.
All in all, the goal is to expand the elf horse population 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 robustly, which requires Tuo Ju to continue working hard. Allen promised Tuo Ju that as long as this matter can succeed, then Tuo Ju will also be in Allen's care.
Obtain the status of a brave person in the cabinet.
He was naturally ecstatic when he heard Allen's promise. He regarded Allen as a god, so he naturally hoped to stay by Allen's side and listen to his teachings. However, he was the head of Muma Village designated by Allen.
It is not a problem for him to run to Allen every day because of his own responsibilities.
If he could get a seat in the cabinet, he would naturally be able to stay by Allen's side often. For this reason, Tuoju would be full of energy for the tasks assigned by Allen.
It's just that it's obvious that Tuoju didn't completely give up the idea of treating Allen as a god because of Allen's instructions. However, he still carried out Allen's orders very well. At least the Muma Village did not appear for Allen now.
When setting up a memorial tablet, no sacrifice was made in Allen's name.
Only last year, Tuoju once found Jamila and wanted to provide Allen with several beautiful and enchanting maids. Jamila, who had already trained her heart to be extremely strong over the past few years, was broken in this moment.
Beware.
Later, in order to defend her love, the twenty-four-year-old girl made Tuoju give up the idea in a calm exchange.
The kind-hearted Jamila did not deliberately embarrass Tuoju in her future work because of this incident. After all, she also knew that Tuoju and her cultural traditions were different. The Kugit nation was originally allowed to be polygamous.
, it is a very common thing to offer beautiful women to the Lord.
Allen, on the other hand, has not known about this until now. Even if he knew, he would most likely pretend not to know.
This lord who has ruled tens of thousands of people spends most of the night thinking about how to further his strength, how to make people's lives better, and how to use the skills of his previous life to gain more advantages.
.
Allen, whose time and energy had been taken up by these things, naturally reduced his demand for women.
It's just that the recent incident between Elaine and Caroline has greatly touched Allen. The young boy in the past has actually found his spring. Allen knows that he will soon be able to serve as an elder for himself.
His subordinates hosted the first wedding.
Allen did not intend to spend the night in the Horsemanship Village. After seeing the pony with elf blood, Allen was ready to leave. However, before leaving, he took with him a hundred cavalrymen who had assembled early.
We embarked on the road to the Elf Trail in a mighty way.
In fact, the closer you get to the north, the more dangerous it is. There are countless evils hidden in the dry wilderness and gray mountains. They were not completely eliminated in the battle a year ago. If they can't survive, they may take risks at any time.
, get out of the mountains.
And Allen, who had learned a lesson on the dense forest road, would never make the mistake of being careless and underestimating the enemy again.
When a group of people arrived at the Woodland Kingdom by boat, Thrandu Yin warmly received Allen and his group. When they first met, the Elf King glanced at Jamila's chest casually.
He could clearly feel that Allen's magical equipment containing the breath of life was transferred to the little girl. Then Thrandu Yin looked at Allen with a playful look, love?
However, this elf king was not a person who loved gossip. He did not ask Allen about this matter. Instead, he 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.
Moreover, Thrandu Yin said that in two days he would arrange for Lai Gorath and Allen to go to the Lonely Mountain together to attend Thorin's enthronement ceremony.
Yes, Thrando Yin does not want to attend Thorin's coronation ceremony. If possible, he is not even willing to step into the Lonely Mountain. Anyway, his grudges with the dwarves have been settled, and the family heirloom gem has been taken.
Coming back, this was a grand event for the dwarves. He was able to send his son to Gorath, which could be regarded as maintaining the most basic courtesy to the dwarves.
Allen can understand why Thrandu Yin did this. After all, in the past few hundred years, the dwarves did not leave any particularly good impression on this kind-hearted elf king.
It’s just that Allen also knows that Governor Thrand Yin actually doesn’t have much resistance to the alliance. It’s just that as a condition, it must be initiated by the dwarves. This matter requires Allen to go to Lonely Mountain.
Went to persuade Thorin.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Faced with Thrandu Yin's kind invitation, Allen naturally accepted it with pleasure, and then lived in the Woodland Kingdom. After all, he had traveled all the way from Wilderness Town.
Everyone has been working hard, so they can take a rest here to prepare for the more difficult road ahead.
Two days later, Allen's team added a dozen elves on horseback again, starting from the mountains where the woodland elves lived, and headed towards the Lonely Mountain along the original Wilderness of Smaug.
And Allen and others were not alone along the way. After walking in the still desolate wilderness for several days, they could often see caravans escorting various supplies passing by.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguoyuedu to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. Yeguoyuedu is available for Android and Apple.]
After chatting, 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 had been in the past few months.
It spread throughout the entire Middle Earth.
There were even human merchants from Dovinion among them. They arrived here along the Running River with a large amount of goods and wanted to exchange a batch of toys in Lake Town. As a result, Lake Town had already been attacked by Smaug.
It's almost destroyed.
Most of the people living near Changhu Town are residents who own fields on the shore, and residents who have toy-making skills are following Bard in the work of rebuilding River Valley City. After all, carpenters are repairing houses.
, is a very important craft.
The merchants from Dovinion did not want to return empty-handed. They had no choice but to lead their caravans and continue to try their luck in the rebuilt River Valley City. After all, those toys were very popular.
, and can even be sold as far as the southwest region of Gondor.
If they don't get the goods this time, they might lose money on this trip.
After the Battle of Gushan, the business atmosphere in eastern Rovanian recovered extremely quickly. It can even be said that this grand occasion has far exceeded before. After all, most people know that Gushan has buried countless wealth, and just now
The dwarves who want to recapture the Lonely Mountain will definitely need to purchase a lot of supplies.
So all the human merchants in Rovanian took action and came to the Lonely Mountain with suitable materials, hoping to exchange for a lot of wealth from the dwarves.
Allen knew that they could definitely do it. Thorin did not lack gold and silver. He was preparing for the enthronement ceremony, but what he lacked was exactly these. I have to say that when it comes to gold, the merchant's sense of smell is really amazing.
As Allen and his party gradually approached Lonely Mountain, he also discovered that many dwarves riding goats came from the east. Just looking at them, Allen always felt that something was not right, because the costumes of these dwarves were different from those of Iron Hill.
The styles are not similar.
Frey, who was walking next to Allen at this time, introduced the dwarves with different dressing styles to Allen.
"Lord Allen, those are our relatives, the black-haired clan originating from the seven major races of dwarves. Moving with them over there are the dwarves from the Iron Foot clan. They live in the same mountain range. I think
They must have rushed here immediately after receiving the news, because the place they live is quite far away from here, almost as far away as the Blue Mountains and Gushan."
Then Frey thought for a moment and continued: "Lord 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 act as he pleased.
A moment later, Frey, who looked solemn, returned on his pony. After he came to Allen, he immediately brought Allen some bad news.
