Chapter 608: The Great War Is Coming

It is precisely because of this that Gandalf is equally clear that the wise and intelligent dwarf king Thorin can also think of this, and for Thorin, since Yefeng's plan has a great hope of success, then he will definitely not let go of the grudge with the elves, let go of his dignity as a dwarf king, and be the first to ask for help!

Therefore, he didn't insist anymore, and he had already expected the final result anyway.

Afterwards, Ye Feng let the Dwarf King ride the flying battleship and experience it, and after strengthening their confidence by the way, everyone also dispersed to rest.

However, those dwarven craftsmen still had to stay up all night to forge parts, and try to make as many heavy crossbows as possible before the start of the big war.

Nothing to say all night......

When the next day's dawn rose, everyone ate just tasteless elf rations, and eating a biscuit with a sip of water was enough to ensure a person's normal energy consumption for the day.

And at this moment, the dwarves who were eating suddenly received a message from the slave warriors on guard!

A large army of dwarves suddenly appeared on the high ground to the left of the lonely mountain, and based on the experience of the former Gondor warrior Saury, their number should be roughly around 500.

"Iron Foot!" Hearing Saury's report, the dwarf king Thorin couldn't help but mutter.

Then he hurriedly led the dwarven warriors under his command to the top of the city wall, and when he looked up, he saw that a torrent of steel suddenly appeared on the high ground on the left side of the lonely mountain.

I saw a dwarven warrior whose body was almost covered with iron armor, holding shields and spears in an orderly manner.

I don't know why, when Ye Feng looked at the dwarven army that appeared in front of him, his heart suddenly remembered the comments on the Dwarven warriors on the Middle-earth Continent: A dwarven army is like a strong, thick iron armor, and each dwarf warrior is a hard iron ring in the iron armor, linked together by faith, honor, and loyalty, giving people the feeling of being as stable as a rock like a conjoined mountain!

At this time, I saw a dwarf riding a wild boar and took the lead out of the military formation.

He had a thick reddish-brown beard, a non-angry but powerful expression, and what he held in his hand was a hammer the size of a human head!

He is none other than the leader of the Iron Hills clan, Thorrin's cousin Ironfoot!

It is worth mentioning that Night Edge actually felt the breath of a legendary creature from the boar under his seat, although according to his experience, the strength of this wild boar may barely reach the level of a beginner legendary creature, but for a mount, such strength is already very good.

And when the dwarves saw the appearance of the iron-footed riding boar, they also roared out with excitement.

Subsequently, Thorin also hurriedly led the dwarven warriors down to meet the dwarven army that came to help!

There was a loud "bang", and Thorin excitedly touched his head and iron feet, but this was a special friendly greeting between friends belonging to the dwarf clan.

"Brother! Welcome! ”

"Haha!" I saw Iron Foot laughing heartily: "Brother! To be honest, I was shocked when I received the news that you had successfully slaughtered the dragon and recovered the Lonely Mountain! ”

"But when I saw the flocks of ravens in the lonely mountain flying towards the mainland, I couldn't help but think of the prophecy in the legend!"

"It is precisely because of this that I immediately led 500 dwarven warriors to help you! My brother! ”

"After all, once the news of the death of the Lonely Mountain Dragon becomes known to others, then there will definitely be some greedy humans who want to seek the treasure of the Lonely Mountain Dwarves!"

However, just as the two dwarven leaders were catching up, there was a sudden thunderous sound from the mountain rock on the other side of the lonely mountain!

"Bang!"

...... "Bang! ”

A series of worm-like creatures emerged from the rock, but their size was huge to nearly a few tens of meters long, and their bodies were as thick as a giant dragon!

On the petal-like valve of its head, there are also huge and sharp mouthparts, and I saw that there are a large number of huge stones on its mouthparts, but with its strength, these hundreds of kilograms of stones are also shattered into countless gravel!

Looking at these terrifying and hideous monsters, the well-informed Gandalf also immediately blurted out: "Ground eating insects! ”

"What is a groundeater?" The hobbit Bilbo couldn't help but ask curiously.

Gandalf, with a solemn face, also slowly explained: "Landeaters, also known as landeaters, are rumored to have been feeding on mountains and rocks, living in various mountains or deep underground! ”

"Legends! They also have dragon blood in their bodies! ”

Rumor has it that they are the descendants of the legendary earth dragon Scatha, also known as the "Giant Worm Skasha"

"It is probably a descendant of the evil dragon Glaurung, and like the evil dragon Skaug, the giant insect Skasha also has the blood of a pure dragon, but unlike the fire Smaug, the giant insect Skasha has the power of the earth!"

"I didn't expect that the enemy actually drove the land-eating insects directly through the mountains between the lonely mountain and the dry wilderness, and brought the army of orcs here so quickly!"

"I thought we'd have a few more days to prepare!"

"That's it!" At this time, the dwarven king Thorin suddenly interrupted Gandalf's explanation: "Now is not the time for popular science, sons of Turin! ”

"Let's fight!"

"The armies of hell have come!"

"Iron Feet! Immediately lead 500 dwarven warriors and distribute them in the first and second lines of defense! ”

After hearing Thorin's order, Iron Foot immediately commanded the dwarven army under his command, and purposefully distributed it on the earthen wall and the walls of the lonely mountain.

At the same time, a large number of dwarven warriors also took over the control of the heavy crossbow from the slave warriors, because compared to the slave warriors who did not have much experience in handling them, the dwarven warriors had skilled experience in handling heavy crossbows.

Therefore, both their reflex speed and hit rate are much higher than those of the slave warriors.

In a short time, 500 dwarven warriors were quickly stationed on the two lines of defense, and at this time, Nightfeng also cast the earthen wall technique in time to fill the only gap in the earthen wall.

Although in this way, the dwarves in the lonely mountain must climb over the wall if they want to get out, but in the same way, if the enemy wants to break through, they must also smash this earthen wall.

At the same time, with a solemn face, he took out a horn made of pure leaves from his bosom.

Then, he slowly put the horn to his mouth, and then violently puffed up and played a leisurely horn sound!

Because now that the orc army has definitely appeared, it is naturally time to summon the army of tree puppets, after all, the tree puppets that only have a duration of 24 hours must be determined to appear before they can use this natural horn that only has one chance to use!

At this moment, after the leisurely sound of the night front blowing through the horn of nature spread through the air, the trees on the edge of the lonely mountain suddenly trembled, and then the trees actually pulled their roots out of the ground like humans.

Later, these large numbers of roots gathered together, and finally formed the shape of two thighs.

After that, these tree-man puppets that were temporarily turned from trees were also under the control of Yefeng, and slowly walked to the top of the two lines of defense and settled down.

It is worth mentioning that because his mental attribute is now close to the extreme value of 49 points, the number of Treant Golems he summons is an astonishing number of 49X3=147.

Under his control, only a small number of a dozen or so Treant Golems were placed on the earthen wall of the first line of defense, and the remaining Treant Golems were all arranged by him in various places in Iruba.

Then these tree-man puppets that had taken root in the defense line took up, and then they also picked up the stones scattered on the ground and put them in their hands, just waiting for the night blade's order to give them, and then threw them vigorously.

Although these Treant Golems are not as powerful as real Treants, they can also throw hundreds of pounds of rocks hundreds of meters away.

That's not much worse than a small trebuchet!

Therefore, hundreds of tree puppets are equivalent to hundreds of small trebuchets!

As for the ammunition needed for its throwing, there is not much else in Irubi, but broken stones can be seen everywhere, anyway, at least enough for this battle.

And just after these treeman puppets defended themselves, at this time, a large number of orc soldiers were also drilled out of the passage drilled by the ground-eating insects in the distant mountain rocks!

I saw that these orc soldiers were like torrents, quickly converging from the branches into the sea!

Unlike the warriors of the orc tribes that are common in Middle-earth, those orcs are almost unclothed, let alone iron armor, and even leather armor is rarely worn.

Its weapons are even more dilapidated weapons excavated from an unknown ancient battlefield.

This time, the orc soldiers who appeared in front of them were not only wearing sturdy iron armor, but also armed with a shield blade on one side and a scimitar reflecting the cold light on the other!

I don't dare to say that these orc soldiers are like dwarven warriors, almost their entire bodies are completely wrapped in the iron can, but at least they also protect most of the vital points on their bodies, only the non-lethal areas such as the arms are not protected by the iron armor.

Although these iron armor and weapons do not look exquisite, they are absolutely practical, and they are completely killing weapons specially forged for war!

Then, just as a large number of orc soldiers came out of the passage, I saw the huge trolls and war beasts walking out of the passage.

Among them, there are more than a dozen huge trolls with bodies at least 4 or 5 meters over, which are used as humanoid trebuchets!

I saw that they were loaded with trebuchets on their backs, and the people who operated these trebuchets were a large number of small goblin mercenaries!

These goblin mercenaries, who are almost as big as hobbits, are close relatives of the orcs and a natural evil ally of the orcs!

It's worth mentioning that the trolls trebuchets carry stones that are twice as large as the Treant golems have!

Therefore, if the Treant golem is used as a small trebuchet, then these trolls are equivalent to medium-sized trebuchets!

As for the big trebuchets!

The rocks they throw are tons of rocks cut from the rocks of the mountains!

And a large trebuchet like this is only possible for a powerful empire, such as the main city of Gondor, which has more than a dozen large trebuchets!

In addition to these dozen ogre trebuchets, there are also nearly a hundred ogre war beasts, which also appeared in the military array.

It's just that the bodies of these trolls are not as huge as the dozen or so, and they are generally about 2.78 meters tall.

Although compared to the dozen or so trolls, these trolls are considered to be petite types, but compared to the dwarves, these trolls are definitely giant-like existences!

It is worth mentioning that these nearly 100 trolls and war beasts are also armed with a layer of iron armor by the orcs, and their weapons are all heavy weapons like hammers, but because of their huge size, their weapons naturally belong to the enlarged version.

However, it is precisely because of this that the warhammers provided to the trolls by the orcs, who are scarce in iron, are also made of hard wood, rather than pure iron.

But despite this, these sturdy wooden hammers, under their great power, can also exert great lethality.

Then, after these trolls war beasts came out, they were followed by hundreds of wolf knights!

It's just that in siege warfare, the role of the wolf knight is far less than that of ordinary orc soldiers.

Subsequently, after nearly ten minutes of integration, an army of nearly tens of thousands of orcs was also neatly arranged at a distance of nearly 100 meters in front of the earthen wall.

Standing at the front were orcs with shields, followed by orc soldiers with spears.

Hundreds of wolf cavalry roamed the periphery of the formation, and at the center of the formation were the rare long-range attack troops among the orcs - the trolls trebuchet and nearly a thousand orc archers!

Unconsciously, an iron-blooded killing aura spread across the battlefield.

It can be seen that although the dwarven warrior looks calm on the outside, he must be very excited inside.

It was the slave warriors under the command of Yefeng who behaved the most unbearable, clearly showing fear and fear, but this could not be blamed on them, after all, they were not real warriors.

At this time, I saw that the army of half-orcs who had been standing neatly suddenly separated to both sides, and then, I saw a huge white wolf slowly walking out of the military column.

And sitting on its back is none other than the Destroyer, Azog!

I saw that at this time, his face was revealing a cruel smile!
