Chapter 0287 Rohan Battle (six)(1/3)
Here is the Golden Palace of Hiyoudon, Rohanate, where the fight with the remotely controlled white-robed Saruman earlier, the King of the Cavalry held a small reception banquet for guests from afar.
At this time, Iowin, a member of the Iow family and also the niece of King Xiyoudon of Rohan Cavalry, was taking care of the two children for dinner.
Just this evening, the two children rode alone on a horse and came to Idoras thousands of miles away, conveying information to their king about the border areas of the northwestern Rohan.
There was no laughter and joy in the reception party today, and it seemed very dull. After all, the king of Rohan had just woken up and found that he had died of a single son, so it was impossible for him to celebrate the arrival of Gandalf and others.
Therefore, the atmosphere in the palace hall is not very good now, and most people try to keep it quiet, not like a banquet at all.
Aragon, who had enough food and drink, was holding his arm and biting his pipe and huddling in his seat. He didn't know what he was thinking, but was just glancing at the king's throne; while the elf prince Legras was fiddling with his beloved bow and arrows, and today they were handed to the hands of the guards, so he had to re-commission while he had time to make sure that they would not have problems during the battle.
As for the fake white-robed wizard Gandalf, he was sitting side by side with Guo Xiyoudon at this time, and the two seemed to be discussing something in a low voice, while Xiyoudon shook his head from time to time, showing a look of rejection. It was obvious that the other party did not quite agree with some of Gandalf's opinions.
The little Anne, who was heartless and ate the most, was playing with the building blocks of the animal bones she had left over.
I don’t know what she had done during this period. When people focused on her, the pile of bones had already become bone frames under her skillful hands, which looked like a few powerful beast soldiers holding bone shields and bone blades.
"Sister, what are you doing? What are they useful?"
The little girl among the two herdsmen who were eating came to report the news was soon attracted by Anne's actions. After watching for a while, the little girl, who was younger than Anne, couldn't help but ask this question.
"They are strong orcs under the bad guy Saruman, and they can be used to fight!"
After looking up at the two dirty little kids opposite, Anne blinked and said it indifferently.
This was something she made out when she was bored to use as a pastime and spend time. After all, in the Middle Earth world, after eating at night, there seemed to be no fun pastime except preparing to go to bed. So, she just made some bone blocks and played with it!
"They can still fight?!"
Hearing Anne say this, the little girl of the herdsman didn't even care about half of the meal, so she directly supported the long wooden table with her hands and looked at the little strong orcs built with bones in surprise.
"Ahem! Little girl, don't believe her words. They are just a few bone-shaped models, and there is definitely no fight!"
Opposite the other side of the long table, the dwarf Jin Li was holding a large ale barrel with one hand and a hardwood cup in the other hand, drinking and drinking.
He never cared about his business, and after seeing the little witch trying to coax someone else's innocent little girl, he quickly corrected and shouted.
"Hmph! Don't believe it if they can really fight, what are you going to do?!"
Originally, this was just a trick for Anne to entertain herself, but after being said by this bearded dwarf, she became a little serious.
This unsightly bearded dwarf dared to question his own things? Wait, there is a time when he regrets it!
"If you can make them move, I'll drink all this big bucket of ale in one breath!"
In anger, Jin Li didn't think about it and slapped the big wine barrel beside him and sweared lying.
Although their dwarves are good at drinking and have a large alcohol content, if they really want to drink all the ale, they will have to die of drunkenness!
"Very good, are you there? You can start fighting now!"
Anne first glanced at the bearded dwarf with a sneer, then looked at the big wine barrel as tall as the other party, and suddenly said cunningly to several bone shelves models on the table.
When Little Annie finished speaking, something that made everyone stunned: on the long wooden table, the so-called powerful orc models built from bones actually started to fight one by one on the long table, holding their own bone shields and bone knifes.
They were just watching me with a knife, and I kicked you; the blades came and waved their shields to block them; they just hit the long table so hard that it was very lively, and from time to time, they would fly out an arms or head made of bones?
“…”
Then, almost everyone's eyes were attracted, and in the distance, Gandalf was muttering to discuss matters next to the throne, and King Hieuson, who was bandaged on his head.
"This, this, this..."
Seeing this, Jin Li's eyes widened!
He always thought that magic was used for combat, such as curses, fireballs and lightning, or something like the invisible ropes that Saruman used before?
If he had never seen a wizard chess in the Hogwarts Magic School, how could he imagine that magic could do something like what is happening on the long table now?
"Okay! You won!"
His lips trembled for a while, and he guessed that the battle between the little people on the table would not end for a while. He was willing to accept the loss, so he could only turn his head and look at the big wine barrel beside him, reach out and shake it hard.
Soon, there were a sound of "thump" and "thump" wine swaying from inside. It was obvious that this barrel of ale was almost full!
"Aragorn? And, Legras..."
He thought that a person might not be able to finish drinking this barrel of ale, so he could only look at his two partners with a help-seeking look, as if he wanted them to share some of it for him?
Unfortunately, Aragon simply smiled and shook his head, saying that he had drunk enough! Legras, the elf on the other side, who was neither good at nor drinking, mercilessly passed his head.
"Brother, look!"
"Look! They can really fight!"
Now, the two children who came to report the news didn't bother to eat their meal and just lay on the table, as if they wanted to get closer and look more carefully?
"Okay! Children, have your supper!"
Iowin, wearing an exquisite black brown collar evening gown, glanced at the gadgets made by the little witch, and then glared at each other with dissatisfaction. Then, she quickly called on her two children to continue to have dinner.
Iowin doesn't like that little witch very much, even if, earlier today, the little witch just saved her uncle of the king?
This is because when the other party was in the palace today, the punch of her uncle Hyoudon was so fierce! She couldn't even imagine that the other party's small fist would have such a lot of strength? It made the back of her uncle's head swollen, and until now, Hyoudon still had to wear a bandage!
"Uncle! Our people of Rohan, they received no alarm, and...unarmed!"
Looking at Hieutenon, who was still hesitant on the throne, Iowin didn't quite understand.
"The savages of Denland who defected to the evil white-robed wizard Saruman, have passed through the pass of Rohan and the West Valley. They are driving straight in, burning, killing, looting, and no one can survive..."
"Uncle, it's time to make a decision! We have many people gathering places on the vast grasslands. Once the barbarians continue to go deeper, they will never let them go!"
After greeting the two children to continue eating, Iowin stood up and continued to persuade King Hieudon on the throne. She also hoped that her uncle could make a decision earlier, cheer up, gather soldiers, and start a full war against the evil Aisinger, and protect their people of Rohan!
“…”
However, her uncle still held her forehead and leaned on the throne without saying anything.
I don’t know if he was so painful because the little girl’s fist hit him, or was he not feeling well after waking up from the demon shadow and finding that his own son was killed? Or... he was worried after discovering that his powerful Rohan Cavalry Kingdom turned into a mess?
"Believe me, King Hiyotun... The news we hear now is definitely the tip of the iceberg of Saruman's evil deeds!"
"Once he opens up Rohan's borders, joins forces with the Demon Lord Sauron and meets in Anduin River, then that is the most terrifying thing!"
After looking at Eowen, Gandalf joined the persuasion again.
Now, the Kingdom of Gondor is being attacked by the full force of Soren's Mordor. Gandalf believes that even with the natural barrier of Anduin River, they will not last long! A few days ago, he had heard the news that the east city of Osgilias was captured by Mordor. Once the west city of Osgilias was also captured, the entire Anduin River defense line of Gondor would be defeated in all directions!
At that time, Minas Tiris, the capital of Gondor, will be completely exposed to the army of the Mordor army!
Once Saruman's army opens up the border of Rohan, meets with Mordor's forces and starts to attack Gondor from the north on both sides, then the Middle Earth world will be completely finished...
By then, as long as the gods, those Aru or Vera do not intervene forcibly, the Middle Earth world will be the devil king Soren! And all the humans, elves or dwarves who resist Moduo, except for the elves who can escape from Amen, everyone else will be finished!
"Hiyoudon, it's time to make up your mind! Call your army, fight your enemies, and fight Saruman's army head-on!"
"Don't let them continue to hurt your people and burn your ranch...you must go to fight as soon as possible!"
After seeing that Hipton seemed to be a little moved, Gandalf continued to make a move.
He planned to completely persuade the King of Cavalry! He believed that on the grassland, Saruman's army of strong orcs or those rabid barbarians should not be the opponent of the elite cavalry of Rohan.
"At this moment, we still have more than two thousand elite soldiers moving northwest. Although Iomer was exiled, he is still loyal to Rohan and to you, the king! He also knows that you are controlled by the enemy!"
"I believe that as long as you summon you, he and his soldiers will definitely come back and fight for the king!"
At this time, Aragon, who was smoking a pipe, also came in and joined the persuasion. They had seen Eomer with their own eyes when they were looking for the Hobbits, and probably knew the character of the Rohan general.
"No! Eom and the others are three hundred gigabits away from here. They can't get back, it's too far..."
"Even if they are all cavalry, at such a long distance, even if they send people out to send messages to find them now and then rush back here, it will definitely be too late! So, Eom...he can't help us!"
No one knows better than Hieuton, who is proficient in cavalry combat, how long it takes for the cavalry to arrive at the capital of the king, so he does not support the battle with Saruman's mixed army in the capital of Idoras, because there is no danger here at all!
Moreover, the most important thing is: Due to Grima's misconduct during this period, there are not many warriors in Idoras now. Hipton knew that the remaining few troops would definitely not be able to hold on to reinforcements to come here!
"No! Gandalf, you don't need to say more..."
After walking in the hall for a while, Hipton quickly reached out and stopped the old wizard who was planning to go forward and continue to persuade him.
"I know, the purpose of you coming to save me! I also know, you have expectations for me!"
"But, during this period...there are so many things happening here in Idoras, the capital of Rohan! I will not cause any casualties to my people! I will not let them down again! I will never risk going to war..."
If everything here was in its heyday, then there would be no saying. Hieudon would definitely dare to lead his troops out and play a head-on field battle with Saruman's infantry on the grassland!
"Escape is useless, Hipton!"
"The war between Saruman and Middle-earth has begun. Whether you want to take risks or not, they will come to you!"
Seeing that Hieudon was still hesitant, Aragon had to emphasize and say something.
"Oh? As far as I know, the king of Rohanate is me, Hieudon, not you, Aragon! So, my decision cannot be tolerated with you!"
If it weren't for the fact that the other party had put some effort into saving him, maybe Hievon would have driven out the guys who tried to interfere in Rohan's internal affairs and his decisions!
Don’t they think about their identities?
How useful can these four people be for the upcoming war, how much will the four of them be for the upcoming war?
If one of them was the lord with thousands of elite soldiers, then he hoped that Youdon would definitely respect their opinions! Otherwise, they would just shut up their mouths sooner.
"Well, King Hiyotun, what is your final decision?!"
To be continued...
