5005. Respond without asking

In other words, in the ten years since the end of the "Last Alliance" campaign, the defeated Mordor has no chance to take supplies. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info No matter how much food Mordor has, there is nothing left to use today. But that doesn't make Mordor worthless. The weapons and equipment inside, and even the jewels that Sauron had taken captive?

At this moment, the scene of the Elf King's capture of the Black Gate appeared in front of Vernor's eyes again. The Black Gate, which was used only to create the strong orcs, was not Sauron's residence, and naturally did not have any jewels. But the furnace that created the strong orcs alone was enough to allow the woodland kingdom to enjoy the wealth for hundreds of years. Compared with the Black Gate, the value of Mordor's conquest is even more incalculable.

Although he also cherished the warm atmosphere at this moment, and didn't want to mention the topic of the follow-up of Gondor's power change too early, Vernor, who thought of this, subconsciously asked, "Have you agreed on the disposal of Mordor's loot?"

"Hmm. Melandiel had stated in front of all the officials in the Council of Gondor in front of Nader and me that the spoils of Mordor were to be divided equally among the three participating countries, as was customary. At the mention of military affairs, Thranduil's relaxed expression was indeed gone. Putting his hand on the railing, he looked at Mordor and said, "After Mei Dequan, he told me privately that Gondor's share was also dedicated to the woodland. As if I was helping him for money. ā€

If Thranduil had received Gondor's share of the wealth, whatever his reason for helping King Gondor, it would not change the fact that he had profited from it. When this interest is transformed from an invisible alliance to real money, in addition to being more spurned by the elves, it will also cause Valandil to become suspicious of the elves. After all, elves don't like to be too precise with their kindred, and it is common for supplies to be communicated and forced to increase troops, such as the reinforcement of the woodland by the soldiers of the forest is an act of not asking for anything in return. But such a situation fell in the eyes of the Human Emperor, and it was hard to guarantee that Thranduil would use the gift of materials to distribute the money given by Gondor to the elves in disguise. If the Human Emperor really thinks like this, the entire Gondor power change will become a game set up by the entire elf clan for money in his eyes. When the time comes, let alone continue to maintain friendship with humans, even Serdan and Elrond, who sincerely help him, will be regarded as a betrayal by the Emperor.

The purpose of the ship king's desire to erase the truth of Gondor's power is precisely to prevent Sauron from using Gondor power to divide humans and elves in the future. The Gondor Rebellion was hidden according to the Emperor's wishes, and it was difficult for Sauron to learn the truth. I don't know that Sauron, who has a relationship between Gondor's power and the elves, no matter how strong his bewitching ability is, he can't find an entry point, so where is the opportunity to get a discord? But once Thranduil accepts the wealth given by Gondor, it not only makes it difficult for the truth of Gondor's power to be forgotten in a short period of time, but also leaves Sauron with room for discord. How could the future Emperor of the Human Emperor understand that this matter was only about Thranduil, not the wishes of the entire elven race, without witnessing the night of Gondor's mutiny?

In any case, the Woodland could not accept Gondor's gift of Mordor's loot. What's more, Vernoll had already thought of another wonderful use of this wealth!

Even though the conclusion had been made, Vernorr still felt that with Thrandil's current strategy, he would not be unable to think of these things. So she turned her head to the side and asked, "How did you reply to King Gondor about the Mordor loot?"

"Before I had time to think about it, I didn't reply to Merandil. Sensing that the wind blowing on the palm of his hand was a little cool, Thranduil naturally untied his robe and draped it over Vernor. When helping her tighten her robe, he said lightly: "Money is not the original intention of sending troops from Lonely Mountain and Woodland. Dwarves love wealth and most will not refuse. I'm not even going to want the loot I deserve. Anyway, there weren't many soldiers from the woodland, only me and a dozen close guards, so I couldn't make a big effort. ā€

"You have been away from the forest for two years, and you have saved the forest an expense. After teasing, Vernorr took the initiative to grab Thrandil's hand. Facing the Elven King, who was slightly stunned, she said with a straight face, "Would you like to give Lone Mountain all the money that the woodland deserves and what Gondor wants to give? ā€

Is it difficult to convince Nader that the "stars" she wants are difficult because she needs to convince the dwarf king?

Thranduil, who knew nothing, was not flustered. Although he knew that the short-lived good thing had come to an end with the topic of Vernor, and that the affairs that were to be discussed would be serious, he still seized the last opportunity. Reverently and sacredly, he crouched down on one knee, imprinted a light kiss on Vernor's unloved finger, and then said with the same solemnity: "You can do whatever you want me to do." What else is there besides what I just said?"

"You...... Don't you ask me why?" Furnoll was a little surprised, but also a little moved. Thranduil's next answer made her even more emotional. His answer was, "No why." It's good if you're happy. ā€

Vernorr pulled Thranduil, who was crouching on the ground, and rested his head on his chest. They fell silent as Thranduil hesitated to embrace her, as if whoever spoke first would shatter the fragility of the temporary avoidance of reality.

Thranduil really didn't want to know why, he just needed to find out if Vernoll wanted him to do it. But as the whole thing was told by Vernor, he knew what it was for.

To be exact, at least on the surface, the whole thing is completely for the sake of maintaining the image of the emperor.

It has to be said that the proposer of this matter arranged it perfectly. If it were just the humility of the Emperor and the fact that the Gondor people did not reject Merandil, Thranduil would laugh at the proposer's arrangement and do her best to promote the creation of this fig leaf with the intention of watching the joke. Because he knew that this fragile fig leaf would not do anything, and it would easily cause more beings to explore the changes in Gondor. And the creatures who have taken care of themselves will soon be able to find obvious clues through the records of the war in Middle-earth. When they finally get the truth through indirect recording and investigation and exploration, they will not only see through the false majesty of the human emperor, but also scoff at his behavior that he wants to cover up. In this way, not only did the emperor not maintain a good image, but he added a bad stroke to himself, and even regarded as deliberately smearing others because of failure.

Thranduil was able to anticipate the future, because the mere cover-up of the contingency process could not erase one of the major clues associated with it. This clue is the siege of Mordor in which all three major races of three countries participated!

Here's why:

All battles in Middle-earth are recorded in the war records by the nations. It is the glory of all the creatures of the righteous camp, and it is also a music that never stops, played with blood and thunder.
