Forty-nine, life hangs by a thread
The king's deeds were the best way to show it! The woodland soldiers followed the king's example, nourishing themselves with the stagnant water of the ground or the river, and then went on to fight. None of the soldiers found out www.biquge.info it was lunchtime, and even their stomachs did not send any reaction, all because the king of the forest, who was constantly fighting, gave them endless motivation in spirit.
But Thranduil knew it was only temporary. Forest elves are not orcs, and although their bodies outperform humans in terms of strength, they are still mortal in the flesh. The interval between the appearance of the rain of arrows is getting longer and longer, and if the Black Gate really intends to kill all the enemies today, it is not impossible for the Woodland Kingdom to disappear into Middle-earth from now on. It seems that a different strategy should be changed. At least give the soldiers some time to rest.
The thought flashed, and the change in battle orders had successfully reached the sensory organs of every soldier. All the soldiers lowered their weapons at the right time, and together they lifted the dead orc. Half an hour later, the Forest Soldiers managed to use the orc's corpse as a throw, and successfully pushed the battle line in the direction of the Black Gate. According to Thrandil's plan, they could temporarily block the passage in front of the Black Gate with the corpses of the orcs in an hour's time, giving the army a precious rest time. But the plan is perfect, and the reality is cruel.
The enemy's formation began to change, and swaths of goblins appeared in front of the Black Gate. It is true that this race, which Sauron regarded as professional blacksmiths, is not very good at fighting, but they are much smaller than the orcs, and with their superior agility, they have successfully dismantled Thrandil's strategy at this time. They deftly maneuvered their bodies to avoid the rain of arrows and rushed towards the woodland king. In a matter of moments, all the forest spirits were encircled.
The exhausted woodland king had no choice but to take up arms and continue to tear and kill, and even Thranduil began to feel a little overwhelmed. He saw more and more soldiers falling, and even the only rain of arrows that could bring comfort had not appeared for a long time. After slashing two goblins to death, Thranduil was stabbed in the left arm by an enemy and lost consciousness. He gritted his teeth and used his right hand to finish three more goblins, but he felt that his right arm had no strength to raise again. Looking up at the black gate where the goblins were still rushing out, he stuck his knife in the ground to keep it from falling. Maybe you should have a glass of wine with Vernor, as the best way to say goodbye to Middle-earth and her?
When Isild and Elrond led to the front line of the Black Gate with all the reinforcements, they saw the King of the Forest, whose face was splashed in battle, dragging his bleeding left arm at the front, dozens of goblins charging at him with broadswords. There was no beauty on the face of the first handsome man in the elite world, only a soaring murderous aura and a heroic look at death.
In fact, when he saw the barrier built by the strong orcs, Isild understood why his father had allowed him to get close to Thrandildo, and he was even more shocked at the moment. He was one step behind Elrond and stepped forward to hold Thranduil's right arm. "It is an honor for me to be able to fight with you," he said with great sincerity. ”
Thranduil breathed a sigh of relief as the goblins rushing towards him were crushed by the cavalry, and the enemy who had cornered the forest army was being driven back to the Black Gate by the cavalry. He turned his head to look at Isild and Elrond beside him, and said firmly, "It is also an honor for the Woodland Kingdom to join the last alliance. ”
At this moment, there is no misunderstanding, there is no distinction between low and high races, there is only the pride of fighting side by side with the enemy.
The turmoil on the front line of the battle could not escape the eyes of Vernor, not to mention the soldiers in front of the tent who were broadcasting the latest progress of the war all the time.
Compared with the soldiers who danced and explained the war, Vernor seemed very indifferent. She raised an eyebrow when she heard that Thrandil was mischievous when she heard that the orc corpse barrier had been built, she looked outside the tent when she heard that the goblins had surrounded the army, she had already known about the arrangements to give the deer to the High King, and when she heard that the help was coming, she just curled the corners of her mouth. It was only when she heard that the king of the forest had lost consciousness in his left arm, but had resolutely refused to return to the camp after the truce, and rested against the orc barrier, her heart trembled.
No one could understand better than Vernor what Thrandil needed most at this time, and all he needed now at the age of two hundred was a hug! The reason why Vernoll knew this stemmed from her life after the age of twenty.
A twenty-year-old elf is equivalent to a seven-year-old human, but twenty-year-old Vernor does not grow up surrounded by dolls and delicacies every day like a human little girl. Five years ago, she sat at a table specially prepared for her with her chubby calves, listening to three gray-haired human mentors impart knowledge. Although for twenty-year-old Vernor, what the instructor taught always made her want to sleep. She had the courage to tell her mother, that she wanted to play with animals, that she wanted to go horseback riding in the forest, but when she thought of what her mother had said after examining her, she lost her courage.
"Fnorr, I knew you were so unbearable, I should have strangled you right away when I gave birth to you!"
With tears in her eyes, she picked up the discarded textbook and returned to her desk. Later, she missed this time very much, and it would not be bad if she could continue like this.
The incident occurred a month after the disappearance of the mentors. When she was holding a bunny to comfort her frowning mother, she heard a heated argument between her father and mother. After the argument, the mother would become more unapproachable, she would pick up something and throw it at herself, and Vernoll wanted to turn away, but the closed door opened.
"My favorite Vernor, come to Nana's arms. ”
She hesitated for a moment, and was carried off the ground by her mother.
"Do you love me? ”
Nodding vigorously, she asked a little confusedly, "Who else can I love besides my mother and father?"
"Of course not. Mother laughed and said meaningfully to her, "Did your mentor teach you to work hard for the creatures you love?" She put a finger on Vernor's tiny lips and whispered to her, "Go to the outermost room in the evening, and Mother will prepare a gift for you." My dear daughter, don't let your father know about it, it's a secret between us. ”
