The Journey of the Demon Hunter

This is not the clothing of the Gondor soldiers he is familiar with, but as the most famous general in Gondor and the eldest son of the prime minister, he knows the styles of human equipment in many different regions. But encountering such equipment here is completely he did not expect.

This is the human in the Ruen Inner Sea!

Why did the humans of the Ruen Inner Sea appear here?

Leaning down, Poromo leaned behind the stone where he was sitting just now, and carefully looked at the distant team. The Pikemen team was still going north along the river, ignoring the observation on the distant hillside.

The humans in the Ruen Inner Sea have already taken refuge in Sauron, but in the past they were often the opponents of the northern humans, while the southern humans often had to fight the Harads and pirates who joined Sauron.

But the presence of such an army here is undoubtedly extremely abnormal.

Sauron may be summoning them, and the Demon Lord will definitely call all his servants to assemble in Mordor before the war to fight for him. But as a general who often fought with orcs in Gondor, Boromo soon realized that this human legion did not seem to go to the Black Gate, which was in the south of the War Plains, and they were more like starting from Mordor. , Marching northward after passing through the war plains.

There are only Luohan and the forest of elves in the north.

The Luen's team walked along the river, and Pomorro looked at them, trying to find their destination from the direction of the team's march. But when the team walked to a place more than three hundred meters away from Poromo's hiding place, the Ruen people suddenly stopped.

Soon, the pikemen's phalanx moved away from the sides, horses pulled vehicles came up, some soldiers began to remove the wooden planks from the carriages, and the rest set up camps by the river and set up bonfires and tents. Several Ruen people riding horses galloped out of the team, heading south and north, like scouts.

Polomo watched the Luen man swinging the wooden hammer and building the plank by the river. After a while, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

This is setting up a pontoon!

Obviously, the purpose of the Luen people was not to march north, but to bypass Gondor's line of defense in Osgilius and cross the river here. The Luen people had brought many craftsmen, so they obviously had plans.

Is this going to attack the back of the Osgilius line?

As soon as such an idea appeared, Polomo quickly rejected the possibility. To the north of Osgilius, the widest spot of the Anduin River, there is a sandbar in the river, and a fortress on the sandbar island, which monitors the northern border of Gondor, without enough ships. , It is impossible to break the fortress and enter Osgilias silently.

Then there is only one possibility left by the Luen people's approach.

From here, they must escape the surveillance of Gondor and directly enter the territory of Rohan.

For four consecutive days, Boromo did not see any Rohan whistle rider by the Anduin River. He originally planned to borrow a horse from Rohan to return to Baicheng in the shortest time as he did when he went to Rivendell.

The Rohan may not know anything about the Ruen invasion.

Staring cautiously at the enemy on the other side of the river, Poromuo slowly retreated, and stood up behind the hillside.

Although the speed of the two legs is very slow, it takes a while for the Loen people to build the pontoon. This time allows him to take the lead on the way to Edoras.

He is going to warn Edoras, this is what he must do.

Maybe this can make him feel better for being guilty of being deceived by the Lord of the Rings.

Chapter 2443

For one day, Zelin didn't notice any changes in Isinger.

Until someone brought news from Rohan.

"There is an orc troop in the Misty Mountains north of Isengard, marching southeast. The target should be Edoras. I can think of only Edoras worthy of sending such an army." Aragorn stood. In the middle of the camp, **** stretched out: "Their number is about two thousand people, among them are ogres. Their marching speed is not fast, and their equipment is uneven. Basically, there are not many heavy armors, and they have not been seen carrying them. Siege weapons, this is our good news."

"There are so many orcs hidden in the Misty Mountains..." Hidden lowered his eyes: "Saruman is using them to surround us in turn."

"Remember the orc tribe we met in Moria?" Legolas added from the side: "It should be that one. They carry war drums. They are like being driven by something, driving during the day. This is unusual for a group of scattered orcs."

"Maybe the demon is supporting his Rohan ally." Zelin's fingers tapped the handrail subconsciously: "Saruman has a Palantir spar in his hand, and he can talk to Sauron directly. Maybe Sauron It is already known that Rohan summoned so many knights to besiege Isengard. So at this time send a team of orcs to attack Edoras?"

"The guards in Idoras are not enough to stop these people." Hidden took a deep breath: "I must send an army back to help and destroy the enemy halfway."

"There are five thousand people here, Your Majesty, how many people do you plan to send back to attack the orcs?" Zelin asked, "I believe in the fighting power of the Rohan, but I want to face a number of at least two thousand, and there is still money in it. There are troops of archers and ogres. You can't just send a small group of soldiers to harass them."

"I can send a thousand people on horses to catch up with the enemy in the wasteland as fast as possible." Standing by the king's side, Iomo stretched out his hand and made a cutting gesture: "Catch up and destroy them. Then return as fast as possible. They can't run horses at the speed of two legs."

"Then there were a thousand fewer people here, and a thousand people were successfully restrained." Zelin spread his hands: "Yes, you can definitely defeat the enemy in a short time. On the plains, those infantrymen are not cavalry at all. Opponents, but eliminated them, and then? Then come back here, ready to face Saruman's strong wall."

"Are you indifferent? Stay here and wait for Edoras to be attacked?" Iomo said eagerly: "There are only civilians in Edoras. They can be armed to resist bandits, but it is impossible to deal with a group of ogres. Army!"

"Saruman and Sauron might think that they found a good opportunity to attack Edoras, but...but they wouldn't expect anyone to see that army. I guess Saruman might still Waiting, we are in chaos after we learn that Idoras was attacked." Zelin said slowly, and he slowly raised his hand: "Now we have the advantage, we know what they are doing, but Saruman doesn't Know what we are thinking. So why not use this advantage."

"How to do it?" Aragorn asked: "But I don't want to risk civilians in order to win."

"This is war. There will be risks at any time." Zelin paused: "But I think it should have nothing to do with civilians. You must pretend to be ignorant of the attack here, don't tell the soldiers, and don't tell anyone else. Iomo, how long does it take to get to Edoras from the place they said in Aragon? How many days will it take?"

"If the orcs travel day and night, it will take about two days. Only during the day, I am afraid that I will be able to see the top of the Golden Temple of Edoras in the evening of the fourth day."

"Then I will be exhausted to Edoras." Zelin nodded: "So I assume it will take three days."

"Keep it from all the soldiers?" Hidden frowned.

"And there can be no movement here." The demon hunter stretched out a finger and added: "Just like normal, continue to besiege the city, build siege equipment, and dispatch knights to patrol, but don't leave Isengard too far away."

"There is a group of orcs raging in Rohan, and they may attack those unguarded villages at any time. How could I be indifferent here?" Hidden clenched his left hand into a fist and smashed it on the armrest: "This is to hide the soldiers from them. Betrayal. I can’t do this. If the rear is unstable, it is impossible for my soldiers to besiege Isengard for a long time.”

"Perhaps this is what Saruman wants us to do. Our troops have no advantage in numbers, but he can rely on the city wall to consume with us, and then ask Sauron to send soldiers from other places to harass Rohan." Zelin sighed. "But think about it, if Saruman thinks that his strategy has worked, and there are flames in Rohan, what will he do? When he sees the camp retreating in a panic, will he continue to stay behind the wall indifferent? He won't Will you send an army to rush out to avenge you?"

"But the premise of this matter is very bad. There are smoke and smoke in Rohan. If so, what is the point of our victory?!" Iomo asked loudly, "We came to Eisen to protect the Rohan people. The battle with Saruman at the mouth of the river is not the civilians who sacrificed Rohan for the battle!"

"There are many ways to stop an army, Iomo." Zelin calmly answered the question of the third Marshal Rohan: "And sending a cavalry squad is not the only option."

"What are you trying to say, Zelin?" Gandalf looked serious.

"Remember the battle in Lonely Mountain, Gandalf?" Zelin rolled his wrist and said confidently: "It only takes four days, as long as the army did not attack any village in Rohan within four days. We can win."

When the meeting was over and Zelin walked out of the camp, Xisali immediately followed.

"What the **** are you thinking?" The night elves quickly followed behind the demon hunter: "Elune is here, you are not adventurous, you are committing suicide, you are proud, I know it is hard for you to feel tired, but you Wouldn’t you be naive to think that an army of orcs would line up and fight you one by one?"

"Of course they won't." It was Altarel who answered her. The elf ranger walked quickly. She passed Hisalie and looked back at the druid: "But they may not I know who killed them or caused them pain. Do you want to go with us?"

Xisali raised her eyebrows: "What are you going to do? What are you going to do?"

"Do a lot of things." The elf ranger retracted his gaze: "We should have dealt with the orcs a long time ago, instead of standing outside the city wall and watching them show off on the wall."

"This is taking the lives of many people at risk." Xisali sighed heavily: "The safest thing is the suggestion of the Prince Rohan. He can easily destroy the enemy. Why continue to take the risk?"

"Because it is very close to Isengard, Saruman’s crows have been monitoring this camp. The movement of an army of more than a thousand will definitely attract his attention. At that time, he can also guess that the attack The army inside Rohan is probably more fierce than good." Zelin came to the school ground where the Griffon was. The Rohan people used wooden stakes and ropes to enclose a circle of clearing. There could have been more than 20 horses here, but now only A griffon, when Zelin arrived, the griffon was still pecking at the wooden fence unhappy. No one from the Rohan dared to approach it, for fear of disturbing it: "But you would think that one person can resist an army. A force of two thousand men."

"Of course it's impossible." Xisali smiled and shook her head: "People who think like this must be crazy. But I think you are very sensible, don't you?"

"Everyone thinks this way, and Saruman should be no exception. Gandalf said that when he was blinded by power and fear, he already had many shortcomings that ordinary people would have." Zelin stopped. , He turned around and chuckled slightly: "So he will make mistakes that everyone will have. This is our chance."

Chapter 2444 Change of Times

The griffin spread its wings and swept across the sky. Zelin could hardly open his eyes when the wind was blowing high in the sky, but for Alta Reall behind him, this was not a problem.

"I saw the camps left by the orcs. They rested twice in such a short period of time, once at noon when the sun was most dazzling, and once in the evening when night fell."
