"Iomo, pass on my orders, blow the horn of war, and the Kingdom of Rohan has officially declared war on Isengard!" Xiyoton is reborn and turns back into the hussar king who once 'didn't say a word'.

"My Majesty, the King's warriors will surely honor your commands!" Iomo bowed and said.

"And ......"

Xiyuton's voice softened, and his majestic face softened, and he said with relief: "Iomo, you did not disappoint me, you allowed my bloodline to continue. ”

"No, I didn't do anything, it's all Gandalf's work." Iomo shook his head slightly.

Xiyoton smiled and didn't say anything, telling Iomo to convey the order as soon as possible, he was going to fight to the death with the Orc Legion in the Valley of the Holy Helm.

It is indeed a battle to the death, the terrain of the Valley of the Holy Helmet is dangerous, and once it is surrounded, there is no way to retreat, but the Horn Fort of the Valley of the Holy Helmet is the strongest fortress in the Kingdom of Rohan, and only here can it resist the army of strong orcs.

Sheudon has no choice, and is confident that Fort Clarion will save Rohan again, just like in history!

In the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Sheudon refuses to declare war on Isengar and leads his people to migrate to the Valley of the Holy Helm, in order to escape the war. Heudon tried to force Isengard's army to retreat without a fight with the strong walls, and it was not until the orc army broke through the fortress of Fort Clarion that he began to fight back.

This time it was different, Russell's butterfly wings changed Xiyodon's decision, and although it was still gathering troops in the Valley of the Holy Helm, the meaning was completely different.

Russell didn't do anything on purpose, and the Fellowship of the Ring inadvertently saved Theodon's son, allowing him to continue his bloodline.

This is very important!

Directly changed Hiyodon's view of the war, and with a son, he could not escape, and for the sake of Rohan's people, for the dominance of the royal family, he had to fight to the death.

Heudon was indeed prepared to die in battle, and his time under control was a nightmare, with many mediocre decisions that led to the weakening of Rohan's power.

Grima's courtiers were not enough to carry this cauldron, and in order to appease the resentment of the people, he had to die in battle, or at least be seriously wounded.

His son, Xiyud, is a warrior, and his nephew, Iomo, is devoted to the common good, and the two are brothers and sisters who are enough to carry the future of the country.

With these two illustrious heirs, what else does Xiyoton have to worry about, it's time for him to dedicate himself to the last fight for the dominance of the royal family!

……

Kidney...... Ahem, Valley of the Holy Helm!

The Valley of the Helmet is a large valley located northwest of the White Mountains, blocked by a series of hills known as the Helmet Canal, behind which is Fort Hornhorn, the only barrier to Isengard.

"That's Horn Fort, Rohan's strongest shield, and he has never lost any battle to defend this place!" Aragorn remembered that the Valley of the Holy Helm was originally the territory of the Gondor people, and was later assigned to the younger brother Rohan.

Russell looked at the castle in the middle of the canyon, which was surrounded by mountains on three sides, and a culvert led into the river to supply the castle's long-fighting defenders.

If I remember correctly, in the Battle of the Valley of the Holy Helm, the Rohans were equal to the Spartan warriors, with 300 defenders against the 10,000 strong orcs, and won a glorious victory with the courage to break the boat.

This time, however, Sheudon had ample time to gather his forces, and the defenders of Fort Clarion swelled to 2,000 men, with another 2,000 cavalry on their way.

At that time, the army of strong orcs will enter the valley, encircle on both sides, and a single charge will take away the victory.

"How's that, Russell, how is this castle?" Gandalf asked softly as he slowly harnessed his horse.

"The walls of Hornfort are very strong, stronger than I imagined, in today's Middle-earth, as long as it is not for dragons, fire demons, stone giants, undead, tree men, white-robed mages, elven queens, rings, Sauron, etc., this city is impregnable!"

Russell nodded and said, full of recognition and affirmation of Fort Clarifera.

Gandalf rolled his eyes, he knew that Russell couldn't say good things out of his mouth, but in fact, he, like Russell, was not optimistic about the victory of this war.

Gandalf's disapproval is not because he thinks that the Rohan people are not strong, but because he understands Saruman, who has been plotting against Rohan for a long time, and once he makes a move, it must be a thunderbolt, and it may be Rohan who will be taken away by a wave.

"Saruman isn't that easy to deal with, and the white-robed instinct tells me that his hole cards must be more than just the Orc Legion." Gandalf said softly, lest it be heard and spread to affect the morale of the army.

What is the intuition of the white robe?

Russell was speechless, Gandalf was said 'Gandalf in gray robe' in front of the Rohan Kingdom, and he was always haunted by it, and all kinds of white robes were on his lips, and his ears were almost calloused when he heard it.

"That venerable white-robed mage Gandalf, Saruman still has his hole cards unrevealed, how should you deal with it? You know, you are now the real white-robed mage, and you can't be compared to him! Russell squeezed.

Gandalf was relieved when he heard the two sentences, and he laughed in his heart, but he was a mature Maia, and he was unmoved on the surface: "I'm going to find some powerful reinforcements to help?" ”

"Reinforcements...... Are you referring to the elves? ”

Russell recalled the plot, it seemed that 200 elven archers participated in the battle of the Valley of the Holy Helmet at the suggestion of Elrond, and suffered heavy casualties, and the leading elven handsome guys were hanged.

"No, the elves have already confirmed that they will not get involved in the war, and pinning their hopes on them will only be a waste of time." Gandalf shook his head decisively, he had already tried before, the age of the elves was over, and it was impossible to sacrifice himself for the rise of humanity.

"Not an elf, is it Gondor?"

Russell said, since Gandalf said that the elves would not come, then nine out of nine would not come, he is a know-it-all in Middle-earth, and he basically can't go wrong.

"Gondor is not good, the regent is short-sighted and self-serving, more than enough to keep and not enterprising......" Gandalf shook his head: "Even if I take Boromo with him, he will not send a single soldier to help Rohan, and he may even detain me in the royal capital Minas Tirith." ”

"Who is the great white-robed Gandalf going to find?" Russell didn't want to guess anymore.

"Tree Man!"

Gandalf grinned, with a little evil: "Saruman has ravaged the habitat of the Treants in order to expand his army, and the Treants and Rohan have a common enemy, and they are allies. ”

Russell: "......"

Why do I think Saruman is in this situation where he is today, and you are secretly doing it?

Russell didn't say what was in his heart, he knew that Gandalf was a mature Maia, and he didn't know anything when he asked.

"I'm going to the forest to look for the traces of the Treants, but Isengard's army will arrive at any moment, and I need someone to assist Sheudon in my place......" Speaking of this, Gandalf looked solemn: "Russell, can I trust you?" ”

"Can't!"

Gandalf: "......"
