When the sound of fighting ended and could no longer be heard, the black dragon came back flapping its wings, but everyone could see that there were several sharp arrows stuck in the black dragon's body. These arrows The dim purple light emitted actually penetrated the black dragon's scales.
"I think I understand why Th¨¦oden and your army were defeated by Saruman." Looking at the arrows on the black dragon and the flowing blood, Glorfindel said with a solemn expression.
"I also understand, and I also understand what Gandalf is going to do. He must have discovered something. The number of arrows that can pierce dragon scales and have magical power added seems to be very large. "Th¨¦oden's face was solemn, he nodded slightly and said.
"Black Dragon, how are you?" Lin Yifeng asked worriedly, looking at the Black Dragon whose body was constantly covered with blood, but was evaporated by the scorching flames before it shed.
"The injury is not serious, but for some reason, the wound never heals and the bleeding cannot be stopped. There is a special force around the wound that is hindering my recovery." Heilong shook his head slightly and said.
"This is Saruman's evil power, magic. It is a very magical thing. Let me do it! Although my attainments in this way are not as advanced as those of Gandalf and Saruman, but for such a degree of injury, I'm still very confident," said Glorfindel on the side. At the same time, he stepped forward slightly and came to the black dragon's side, his body blooming with light green light.
"It's really strange, the legendary dragons. Shouldn't they be magic that ignores everything? In the classics, they are said to be the enemies of magic." Frodo, who was standing aside, said curiously.
"Only some rare beings are like this. Most dragons are like me. They don't actually have much resistance to magic. And those dragons with magic resistance are not as good as us in physical defense. ." Heilong replied, stroking his huge head.
"We have to rush to Helm's Deep. This place is not far from our goal. Give the order. We will stay up all night to try to get to Helm's Deep at dawn. All the troops will arrive at Helm's Deep." Turning around and giving the order, Th¨¦oden said.
When the sun just rose, they finally arrived at their destination.
When all the armies entered Helm's Deep. The soldiers guarding Helm's Deep cheered. Their king. Reinforcements arrived.
"Although I don't want to disturb the atmosphere of the scene, I have to say that the orc army has arrived. In Boundless, they will arrive in almost an hour." Suddenly Susan said.
"What!" After hearing Susan's words, Th¨¦oden and others showed a look of horror on their faces, as well as a trace of panic. From the news from the guards, it can be known that there is not much food and grass here, and there is not much food. There are too many arrows, and if you have to defend them tightly, it will only lead to a dead end.
But now I heard Susan say that the orc army was more numerous than myself and others, which made Th¨¦oden and the others even more panicked.
"Don't worry, I'm afraid Gandalf has already expected this, and Gandalf must have gone looking for reinforcements, otherwise he wouldn't be able to let us guard Helm's Deep, for a few days at most. I think Gandalf will definitely Return and lead us to victory." Glorfindel shook his head slightly and said.
No one has ever thought about these four words: "Escape from battle". If Gandalf was that kind of person, he would not have to accept the mission of the Lord of the Rings when he was in the Shire. If he was such a person, he would not have to accept the mission of the Lord of the Rings in Moria. You can run away when facing the Balrog.
Even Lin Yifeng himself has to admit that Gandalf is indeed a person with all the beautiful qualities.
Humility, wisdom, courage, justice and responsibility.
"Don't worry, even if it's me and the Black Dragon, I can ensure that Helm's Deep is not breached. I didn't know the terrain of Helm's Deep before, so I may still be a little unconfident, but now I am full of confidence." Lin A smile appeared on Yifeng's face, he looked at the only passage in Helm's Deep and said.
He understood why Gandalf said it was a dead end.
Because as long as the enemy blocks the passage to Helm's Deep, and the people inside don't have enough strength to break out, then they will never be able to get out, but it is also easy to defend and difficult to attack.
"My lord, why are you here?" Wearing blood-stained armor and a sword, Eowen walked out of the valley.
"What happened?" Th¨¦oden asked in a deep voice, looking at ¨¦owyn whose armor was stained with blood.
"I am sorry for the king and the people's entrustment. After we leave the Rohan Kingdom, we will go toOn the second day of Helm's Deep, we encountered an attack by orcs. They were chasing us closely. Our soldiers were not enough to repel them. Just when we were surrounded, we encountered the retreating front line. The soldiers and rendezvous finally came to Helm's Deep. ¨¦owyn knelt down.
"This is not your fault, you have done a good enough job." Th¨¦oden said, shaking his head slightly.
"How much food and grass there is in Helm's Deep is a crucial matter." Th¨¦oden said.
"There are not many left, at least far from being able to supply so many soldiers." Eowen said with a sad face.
"Really, you can't hold on for a whole day?" Wei Wei said to herself, looking at everyone's tired appearance, taking a deep breath, a determined look appeared in Th¨¦oden's eyes, and then he pulled out his sword.
"Let me be the sinner of the Hussars!" After saying that, Theoden faced his own mount behind him and slashed out with his sword. Along with a shower of blood and the screams of the surrounding soldiers, Theoden He actually killed his own horse.
"The Rohan Kingdom is also called the Hussar Kingdom, because we fight on war horses. War horses are equivalent to our second life. I can understand your thoughts, but at this moment, let me be the sinner. Well, I have given you the king's order. You must eat the cooked horse meat. This is the king's order and it is also a military order." Taking a deep breath, Th¨¦oden looked around and said loudly.
Looking at Theoden, Aragorn, Gimli, Boromir and others, their eyes were filled with shock and even more respect. Aragorn slowly knelt down on one knee to express his respect for the equally proud people. This is the highest respect for Aragorn, who is also proud of his direct lineage from Elendil.
Aragorn held Anduril across his chest.
Then Gimli, Legolas, and Boromir slowly knelt down like Aragorn. Eowen, Eomer, and the soldiers of the Hussars also silently moved towards Theoden. bow down.
Lin Yifeng, Glorfindel, and Susan also bowed slightly towards Th¨¦oden to express their respect.
They can all understand that as a member of the Rohan Kingdom and the king of Th¨¦oden, he is feeling at this moment. On the one hand, he is for the soldiers and the people, and on the other hand, he is the war horse that is equal to the second life of the people of the Rohan Kingdom.
Theoden chose without hesitation and took the blame himself. Perhaps in the history of Rohan a hundred years later, he should have been the wisest king, but became the most bastard king. (To be continued)
