The Journey of the Demon Hunter

After two rounds of slings by the orcs, the slings in the white city immediately began to counterattack.

These trebuchets are fixed on the high towers in the city, or the tops of the towers of the city walls, and can throw larger boulders. These rocks whizzed across the sky, and half-orcs crowded together on the plain. The trebuchet didn’t need to aim at all. Every stone thrown out would definitely hit the half-orcs phalanx, crushing dozens of half-orcs underneath. . Some trebuchets aimed at the location of the enemy trebuchet, and many pieces of crushed stones of the same size were thrown into the air and scattered around the orcs’ trebuchets like raindrops. A trebuchet was hit and smashed to pieces, while the nearby half-orcs were smashed and wailed in the baptism of the rock. A siege tower was hit in the process of marching, and a hole was smashed in the middle. Many orcs inside were knocked into the sky, screaming and flying into the sky, then fell heavily and smashed into the crowd. The shattered structure could no longer support the weight, and crashed to the side amidst the harsh rubbing sound, and the trolls who pushed the siege tower turned and fled in fear.

Compared with the slingers of half-orcs, the professionally trained soldiers in Baicheng can cast rocks more accurately.

Before long, the screaming sound from the sky caused Baicheng's counterattack to stop.

Several dark shadows swooped down from the dark clouds and rushed straight to Baicheng. The soldiers in the city covered their ears in pain with the screams.

"Jing Ling!"

Chapter 2511-Cavalry Convergence

Rohan Huqi met the first group of Gondor people at noon.

"Faramo? I know your name." The commander of the Gondor was brought to Prince Siyod: "I heard that the regent of Gondor, Dinese, has two sons, and his eldest son, Polom, is Luo. Khan’s friend, he ventured to Rohan a month ago to warn us of the Ruen invasion. You are his brother, then you are also Rohan’s friend. Can you tell me why you are here?"

"Are you the reinforcements sent by Rohan?" Faramo asked eagerly. He straightened his chest on the saddle, and looked back over Shiod's shoulders: "Are these people alone?"

"No." Xiu De didn't care that Faramo ignored his question. He waved his hand: "My father and the hussars are on the way, but we can't rush into the battlefield without knowing anything, so I Lead some riders to investigate."

Zelin also stayed aside when Faramo was talking with Siyoud, looking at the Gondor nobleman. Compared with his brother Polomo, Faramo looked more stable. Polomo's enthusiasm can infect the soldiers around. Faramo obviously has no such ability, but even when he is anxious, his description is still very organized.

At noon, King Xiuton ordered all the riders to stop and eat immediately, eat all the food they carried, drink up the water in the water bag, and then throw away blankets, packages and other things that are not related to the battle, and trim them on the spot. In one hour, regain strength and prepare to fight.

The Rohan people know nothing about Gondor, but they light a beacon to seek assistance and only do so when Gondor is facing a crisis of extinction. Perhaps Mordor’s army is already approaching the city, or the army is still gathering outside the Black Gate, and Gondor is also gathering the army to prepare for a decisive battle with it? So when the army set up camp, Siyud led a part of the cavalry and prepared to investigate near the white city, and then King Siyudun decided what to do.

Zelin and Xiyoude came to investigate together, he was not tired, and he didn't feel any fatigue. Althea was in Toruvil's army, and Hisalie stayed with Eowyn all the time.

"The Mordor army broke the Osgilius line of defense this morning. The Wall of Perano has been lost. More Orcs and Harads, as well as some Eastern human tribes I can't recognize, are crossing the river. "The news that Faramo brought to them is not too bad, but it is not very good: "They may attack at any time."

"It seems that we have caught up. Don't worry that after we arrive, we have to face the problem of a strong city occupied by half-orcs." Zelin said to Xiyoud. Hussars are not good at street fighting and siege warfare. If the orcs are besieging the city and building fortifications on the Plain of Perano, the Hussars will be in a dilemma. They have no extra supplies and must fight quickly.

"Baicheng will not be captured so quickly." Faramo said: "Reinforcements from the south entered the city yesterday. The number of troops in the city is about 4,000 to 5,000. If there is enough time, more reinforcements may arrive."

"I believe that Gondor can gather an army of 10,000 soldiers, but Gondor's capital is on the border of Mordor. The speed of the enemy's gathering of troops far exceeds ours." Zelin looked at Faramo again: "Tell us, How many enemies are there?"

"Maybe ten thousand people or more. Mainly infantry, but also a few wolf cavalry and archers." Faramo frowned: "When I came here, the enemy had just taken Osgilius. The devil had been prepared, the half-orcs built a siege tower in Mordor, I guess they will not delay it for too long."

Shiodd nodded: "That's great. When the half-orcs focus on the wall, the hussars will run through their defenseless positions! I'm going back to report to the father, wizard."

"I won't go anymore." Zelin took a deep breath: "I'll go to Gondor, and see you on the Perano Plain."

Xiu De didn't say much, he just nodded, and then led the remaining cavalry to turn and gallop towards the Hussar's camp.

"Wizard?" Faramo unexpectedly widened his eyes: "Are you a wizard?"

"Someone calls me that." Zelin didn't deny: "But I think there should be a white robe wizard in White City now, right?"

"Yes, Mislanda is in the city, but there is more than one wizard, and ladies who think noble are also using her spells to fight for Gondor." Faramo's words made Zelin look suspicious: "People are all Said, the wizards know each other, she claims to be Virginia, do you know her?"

"Vini?" Zelin raised her eyebrows: "Why is she in Gondor? Wait, is she the only one?"

The demon hunter always thought that Virginia should have entered Mordor with the dragonborn. Virginia has fought in Mordor, and she also knows the terrain of Mordor. If she is there, coupled with the force of the dragonborn and Freid's investigation, it is certain that the Supreme Lord of the Rings will be safe. Moreover, she has also seen some situations in Mordor and knows how to deal with it.

"Yes, without this honorable lady, Gondor might have been surrounded by Mordor's army." Faramo briefly told Zelin about the battle of Virginia in Osgilius. , And her stay in Osgilias: "About half a month ago, she and her companions came to Osgilias. My father recently told me that some of them were carrying With the weapon of the demon lord, I don't understand why, and then they separated. She decided to stay and help us defend against the orcs."

This went beyond Zelin's expectation, and was completely outside of the plan he had considered.

As for the escort, Zelin is more optimistic about Virginia's ability. She is very smart. Although she is a little unconfident, it can't hide her good mind. Gnaiya may have a plan before the action, but most of her plans are short-term actions. Later, she will inevitably start to act according to her instincts and personal emotions. In Mordor, many monsters can take advantage of this.

"I see...Where is she staying now, is it safe?"

"She stays in the city. As long as the wall is not breached, she is safe." Faramo nodded.

"I understand." Zelin pursed his lips: "Faramo, go to the river to the east. There is also an army there. Your knights can act with them to harass the enemy's rear and attack Osgilia. Si, or charge with Huqi."

"What are you going to do, wizard?"

"I said it."

The sound of flapping wings came from the sky. Amidst the neighing of horses and the exclamation of the knights, a giant flying beast landed on a nearby grassland: "I'm going to Gondor. Go now."

Chapter 2512: Battle of Baicheng

In the sky, in the howling cold wind, the besieged White City was greeted by the demon hunters.

The black and oppressive orcs covered the plains, and on the pontoon of Osgilius, a steady stream of half-orcs, like black snakes, crawled across the river from different directions and merged into the oppressive black. In the sky, ignited stones were thrown into the city wall. A fire has started in the city, and many buildings have been engulfed by flames. On the street, you can see crowds fleeing out of fear, as well as soldiers rushing towards the city wall holding shields and spears against the crowd.

Classes in the city, a few black shadows flying up and down are particularly eye-catching.

"Jing Ling!"

The soldiers of Gondor are facing the shadow of Mordor all the time. The Minas Devil's Cave on the other side of the river is the lair of the leader of the ordination Angmar Witch King. Every soldier must raise his head and pay attention to the sky when he is on guard. But when these legendary powerful warriors who served directly for the devil descended from the sky on the flying beasts, the defenders on the walls were uncontrollable and plunged into chaos.

The ring spirit hovered in the sky. The flying monster sitting down had leather wings with a wingspan of more than five meters. The sharp neighing from the densely toothed mouth made people dizzy, as if a heavy hammer was constantly tapping the helmet. . Many soldiers bent down in pain, or fell to the ground holding their heads. A ring spirit glided over the tower of the city wall, extending its lower limbs and claws, and the tall trebuchet was smashed into pieces like a castle on the beach. The soldiers on the defensive tower turned and fled, or threw to the sides to avoid the attack of the ring spirits. But more people were still caught by the ring spirits, thrown down the city wall, and fell amidst screams.

"Archer, cover the trebuchet!"

Polomo raised his sword: "Shoot!"

The ring spirits kept hovering on the wall, their speed was very fast, and the scattered arrows scattered towards the sky could only hit the air and disappear into the sky. The existence of the ring spirit made the soldiers next to the catapults dare not show up. In order to facilitate shooting outside the city, these trebuchets were fixed on the towering defensive towers and city platforms. Now the operators face the attacks of the ring spirits. There is nowhere to hide. Without the restraint of the trebuchets in the city, the orcs' trebuchets began to attack unscrupulously. Many flying rocks hit the battlements and knocked off the soldiers standing on the walls.

Suddenly, a dazzling white light burst out from the wall, blocking the swooping ring spirit like a wall. Several ring spirits tried to bypass the light from the other side and attack the archers gathered on the arrow tower. The white robe wizard turned around, and his whole body glowed again, holding up the ivory-white wand in his hand, flashing a dazzling light.

Jie Ling suddenly pulled up the momentum and flew in another direction.

"Don't shoot the ring spirits, attack the trolls pushing the siege tower!" Gandalf strode across the city wall, passing behind the archers, and shouted: "Shoot them down and stop the siege tower from approaching!"

When the light appeared, the ring spirits would retreat. They still didn't seem to dare to be illuminated by such dazzling light, but they would immediately turn around and fly to the other end of the city wall. Baicheng is located at the foot of the mountain. The city wall presents a semicircular shape. The enemy cannot line up in front of the city wall, so that the archer can easily attack the trolls pushing the siege tower, but it also makes the city wall between different towers. The distance becomes farther. Ring spirits can easily fly to every corner in the sky, attacking those soldiers who have lost their combat effectiveness in the scream of flying monsters, and when Gandalf arrives, they will leave again.

The orcs phalanx rushed out a few trolls, replacing those shot down by the rain of arrows, and continued to push the siege tower. The people retreated in panic, and Boromo and Gandalf, as well as Imrahir had to walk around the wall, commanding infantry and archers. The siege tower was getting closer and closer to the city wall, and the soldiers standing behind the battlements could almost see through the cracks of the broken planks, the half-orcs hidden in the siege tower, and the bloodthirsty cheeks. Some archers fired at the siege tower with fear, but only shot on the shield made of iron and wooden boards.

"Don't shoot the tower!" Gandalf shouted, "Keep shooting the trolls!"

At this time, new shadows appeared in the sky. After the ring spirit flew back into the sky, it turned back again. Gandalf raised his wand again. Except for those who are naturally more powerful members of the race, few ordinary humans can fight against the ring spirits. Their appearance will bring fear, and fear will increase the power of the ring spirits.

The moment Gandalf's light appeared, on the other side, the other ring spirits immediately swooped down and took the opportunity to attack the soldiers on the wall. The siege tower was less than five meters away from the city wall. The guards saw the threat rushing down from the sky. Many people fell to the ground, and some turned and fled to the stairs, trying to escape the city wall. The orcs on the siege tower laughed unscrupulously, mocking the weakness of human beings.

In the next moment, there was no light from Gandalf, nor the threat of arrow rain. The ring spirit that was still swooping down suddenly rose to height.

The soldier lying on the ground held the crooked helmet and raised his head to look at Ji Ling. I saw a dark figure swooping down in the sky and rushing straight to a ring spirit. The moment the figure staggered, a cold light flashed, a flying monster screamed sharply, and a black blood sword spouted from its thick and long neck. Twisting his body and struggling to fall, he slammed heavily on the siege tower. The upper layer of the siege tower that the orcs forcibly pieced together was instantly smashed and shattered. The broken wooden stakes, rusty iron skin and the orcs were scattered in the screams, and rained on the trolls pushing the siege tower. , The trolls with many feather arrows wailed in pain, and finally couldn't hold it back, and fell down.

Deafening cheers erupted from the walls.

Poromo opened his eyes and looked at the top of his head. He recognized the identity of the flying behemoth, which was not the ring spirit, but belonged to another person.
