Royal capital!

After a night of fierce fighting, the defenders failed to usher in the long-desired light, and black clouds stretched for dozens of kilometers, covering the Paliano plain.

The war drums shook the sky, the horn of the charge sounded, and the army of half-orcs divided into four phalanxes and slowly marched forward.

With an absolute advantage in numbers, the orc army under the command of the Witch King of Angmar attacked the city one phalanx after another, not giving the defenders time to rest for a moment.

What may seem like a stupid tactic to add fuel is extremely effective on the battlefield right now, not only depleting the number of the royal capital's defenders, but also supplying fear and despair as an energy source.

If you can block it once, you can block it twice, can you still block it for the third and fourth times?

"Woo woo woo ————"

The earth rumbled and trembled, and at the end of the Paliano plain, dozens of behemoths stepped into battle.

The Elephant Legion of the Haradians!

These giant beasts from prehistory have brought great pressure to the defenders of the royal capital, even if the giant elephant army is not suitable for siege warfare, they will not participate in the siege, but their appearance is still like a heavy hammer, smashing into the hearts of the defenders of the royal capital.

Gondor had no reinforcements, and Mordor's forces continued one after another, and even the most optimistic defenders could only see deep despair.

Gandalf gasped and leaned against the wall, his cherished white robe turned gray by the smoke of gunpowder, and his hair and beard were in a mess. In order to dispel the fear spread by the demon beast Wyvern, he had been glowing all night, almost being squeezed dry.

The Wyvern was deliberately released by the Witch King of Angmar, and instead of going head-to-head with Gandalf, he continued to wail and roar over the royal capital, forcing Gandalf to expend a lot of energy.

The tactics were successful, and Gandalf languished, his emaciated cheeks withered.

However, considering that he is a mature Maia, literary and martial arts are at his fingertips, and it is hard to say whether the withered tree is true or false, maybe the old tree will bloom in the next second and welcome the second spring.

Looking at the wavering defenders below, Gandalf took a sip of the water bladder and rode on his white horse to continue to shine and send warmth.

Sure enough, this bad old man squeezed it, and then had two or three rounds, and there was no problem at all.

In the formation of the orcs, dozens of catapults threw fireballs at the royal capital, not seeking to smash the city walls, but just constantly venting ammunition.

The Witch King of Angmar was once one of the most prominent kings of mankind, and knew that it was not realistic to take Minas Tirith in a short period of time, so he chose a strategy to attack the heart and weaken the will of the defenders little by little.

The trolls pushed the siege towers closer to the city walls, which were roughly the same height as the city walls, and were simply put together with wood and wrapped in a layer of iron sheets, which could effectively defend against bows and arrows, which was a nightmare for the defenders.

Rumble!

A boulder fell, the siege tower collapsed, and dozens of orcs fell to the ground screaming and continued to scream.

On the stepped city wall of the royal capital, the catapults used for defense continued to counterattack, and when the ball-shaped stone bullets with great lethality were exhausted, the buildings were demolished and the walls were broken, and a corner of the fortified city was used as ammunition.

The royal capital Minas Tirith is a thousand-year-old fortress and a strategic location, and there should not be a shortage of stone bullets, but the regent Dinethor II had no intention of responding to the war, which led to the opening of the war and had to be demolished.

The command of the defenders of the royal capital was in the hands of the two brothers, Borromo and Faramer, and Gandalf had a hard time, running back and forth on the walls with his staff held high.

Where the illumination technique passed, the fear of the soldiers and civilians defending the city suddenly disappeared, and an inexhaustible force poured out of their bodies, throwing the rolling logs and falling rocks on the city wall downward.

Gandalf couldn't say what he was suffering from, he could have jumped off the city wall and killed seven in and seven out of thousands of troops, but the task assigned to him by the leader was to be a soul mentor and guide the rise of the Terrans, instead of acting as foreign aid, and leading the Terrans to abuse all directions along the way.

On the city wall, the militia moved down the rolling logs, the soldiers drew their bows and arrows, and a continuous rain of arrows rained down, nailing the orcs to the ground. The corpses were piled up, and for a while, they were actually blocking the orc legion that was beating like a wave.

The Witch King of Angmar rode the Wyvern to patrol the battlefield, his black robe covered with a layer of armor, and his scarlet eyes looked down.

Seeing the busy white robe, he snorted coldly, and swooped down with the wyvern, smashing two catapults along the way, and when he approached Gandalf, he pulled out the magic sword at his waist and released a roaring pillar of fire.

Bite!

The illumination turned on, Gandalf waved his staff to block the pillar of fire, glanced at the sleek Angmar Witch King, and immediately brushed his long loose hair, and his gray white robe shone brightly, becoming neat and new.

"Old fellow, your end has come!"

"A lot of people say that......" Gandalf smiled slightly, and then they all died.

……

Opposite the royal capital, across the port of the Anduin River in the Paliano Plain, 50 pirate ships slowly approached.

Along the harbor, the leader of the orcs stationed here was stunned, the pirates arrived on time to the battlefield, a little unexpected, he thought that this gang of robbers would kill and loot all the way, and did not arrive until the end of the war.

Russell stood on the mast in a black robe, looked at the battlefield in the distance, frowned, pulled the rope and slid down, and said to Aragorn: "It's a little troublesome, we seem to have come early." ”

"It's early! What do you mean? ”

Aragorn held the holy sword, and the king of Gondor was engaged in a brutal defense of the city, with warriors dying every second, and if it weren't for Russell's press, he would have led the southern reinforcements into the plains.

"Don't get excited, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan."

Russell shook his head lightly: "Luo Han's cavalry has not arrived, the half-orc legion is neatly arrayed, and when we see the giant elephant legion of the Harads, our little people rush up, and we are simply sent to death." ”

50 pirate ships, loaded with reinforcements from Aragon, a total of 1,000 men, or freed slaves, or defenders and militias from coastal towns, plus 30 Dentan warriors, the combat effectiveness is just as good.

But the orcs gathered in the plains of Paliano are endless, with a starting price of at least 50,000, and excluding the orc legion, the number of Haradians exceeds 10,000.

Their 1,000 men, still infantry, were wiped out by the Haradians before they could encounter the orcs.

"Are you just waiting for the Rohan cavalry?"

Aragorn gritted his teeth, and now charged, 1,000 people died immediately, but it was better to wait and watch the defenders of the royal capital die, it was better to give him a knife directly.

"Don't worry, this play is about the emperor's return to the palace...... Ahem, it's about the return of the king, how could I make you a turtle with a shrunken head. Russell patted Aragorn: "Leave it to me next, so that you can see the good show!" ”

As he spoke, Russell strode forward, turned over and jumped from the side of the boat to the water, and took out his trident and pinned it behind his back.

"Russell, what do you want to do?" Aragorn hurried to the side of the ship.

"Give you the whole bigger battle, you can't compare it to other kings, and ...... Don't forget the distracting elves! ”
