Chapter 75: The Verge
The massive black shadows that paved the road were made up of one orc soldier after another.
Walking in front of the huge army formation are tall and strong strong orcs, they have very fine metal armor, and in their hands are either machetes or spears, just looking at the shape of the body is actually quite majestic.
At the back of the line of the strong orcs were a number of thinner-looking orcs, most of them armed with a simple crossbow.
Further back, some of the farther ones are able-bodied orcs, who are only wearing leather armor or no armor at all, and the weapons in their hands range from broken swords and knives to short spears and clubs that are extremely rudimentary at first glance, making people look like cannon fodder characters.
There are even more cannon fodder in the orc army, that is, some physical defects, such as the ability to walk with a single step, or the arms are not so flexible, and the body is hard.
A burly-looking orc climbed a rock, striking his breastplate with a sword in one hand and the other, raising his head and roaring.
A torrent of steel was advancing from the edge of the rocks, and they were strong orcs wrapped in metal armor, probably about two thousand?
In the queue of the strong orcs, you can see the existence of a climbing ladder, the length of the ladder is slightly longer than the width of the canyon wall, and the top has a metal inverted buckle device, that is, a buckle hook used to bite the city wall.
The defenders of the Valley of the Holy Helm.
Even when the elves in the city wall saw the arrival of the black-pressed army of orcs, they still looked so calm, and even the rate of breathing did not change significantly.
Aragorn walked on top of the walls with his sword in hand, and he was constantly saying something loudly in Elven language.
"These elves are at least hundreds of years old, and they have participated in hundreds of battles......" Hikoshi flapped his wings and flew near the city wall, and complained in secret communication: "Isn't that kid named Aragorn teasing the elves?" How to fight, I still need him to remind you! ”
Aragorn was telling the elves how to fight, reminding them where to shoot their arrows to inflict lethal damage to the orcs.
At this moment, there must be many elves who are complaining in their hearts like Hiko, just because of good discipline, there is no elf voice.
As one of the elves, Legolas was extremely embarrassed. As a good friend of Aragorn, he couldn't help but remind Aragorn several times, but after thinking about it, he didn't do it.
"Aragon is asserting his command." Hadar stood beside Legolas and lowered his voice, "I have handed over the command of the elves to him. ”
Aragorn would have been given command of the elven army, and he would have to thank King Elon for his efforts.
King Elon did not know what the price was used to make the Elven Emperor Kellepeng and the Queen of Light Galadriel willing to send an army, and at the same time gave the command of the army to Aragorn.
Otherwise, how could Hadar also participate in the crusade against Sauron's elves, as an immortal, he has always been fighting on the front line, and the big and small battles are based on thousands of units, and it is impossible to lack combat command experience.
Gimli had died in the Moriath Mine, and the walls were naturally missing a dwarf who was constantly jumping on his feet, and Legolas didn't have to tease the dwarves if they wanted to get something to put their feet on.
"We have always been on the front line of the fight against Mordor!" Boromo looked at the army of orcs who were getting closer and closer, and said with a flat expression and tone: "I have seen similar scenes countless times, countless times! ”
Boromo was also on the city wall, his knight's sword still in its scabbard, and he didn't look nervous at all.
As the main force in the fight against Mordor for decades, Gondor has really started a battle-level war with the orcs, and the number of armies on both sides is tens of thousands each time, and a dozen can be as long as months or even years.
Although Gondor has repeatedly fallen to cities, it does not mean that Gondor has not won several victories, but the orcs are produced and do not need to sow the seeds of life and then be conceived by the mother like humans.
Gondor, who had repeatedly won victories, had to die a soldier because it took a mother to raise a boy for at least a dozen years. This man, who had been raised by his parents for more than ten years, was likely to become a corpse immediately when he stepped on the battlefield.
It is precisely because the national strength is constantly weakened by the drag of war, coupled with the fact that the army has been repeatedly depleted and the number of soldiers is becoming less and less, that Gondor has gone from victory to victory, but he is still constantly losing cities and land falling.
A true warrior is one who is able to remain calm in the face of adversity.
Aragorn, who kept raising his sword and roaring, was not much calmer than Boromo, who looked at him and didn't move.
The orc army advanced to a position about two hundred meters or so close to the city wall and stopped, only a straight line was lined up in front of them, and the rest of the place was a dense formation of people.
There were a few flashes of light in the sky, and then a "boom" of thunder exploded.
The rain began to grow heavier again, dripping down against the metal shards, making a clanging sound.
"Steady!" As he walked, Aragon shouted, "Don't shoot arrows!" ”
The elves on the city wall didn't even move, but their eyes changed.
Even the elite soldiers who have experienced a hundred battles, seeing the dense enemy army, it is really difficult to maintain absolute calm, but it is just to control themselves and abide by discipline. It doesn't matter on the surface, but in fact, most of them are MMPs in their hearts.
There were also officers in the mountain fortresses on both sides who kept shouting things like "calm down" and "don't shoot arrows", and some of them even shouted with trembling voices.
"Maggie." Lin Bin asked with a mind chain, "Did you find anything abnormal?" ”
"Too many creatures!" Maggie naturally responded with a psychic link: "There is no place to be shielded, if they are mixed in the army, the biological energy reaction is too dense and it is difficult to detect." ”
Chu Fan's team didn't encounter that group of other-world mission participants when they attacked Issinger, it doesn't make sense that the other-world mission participants just disappeared out of thin air, and the "main god" on the side of the other-world mission participants won't let them be at fault for this big plot, right?
"It's hard to say!" Lin Bin said with less certainty: "If the participants of the mission from another world come, they will have the goal of changing the final battle situation in the Holy Helmet Valley. They don't know the plot, maybe they think that they have won, they won't hide, they will just put pressure on us again and again. ”
Chu Fan said: "Such a general battle, even our impact on the overall battle situation is limited. ”
Lin Bin had to admit that Chu Fan's statement was very direct but true.
They don't have the ability to kill so many soldiers, they can only play a key role locally.
