Chapter 388: There is no artistic beauty of war
Isinger!
The fortress defending the Aysin River is protected by a natural barrier on one side with the help of a mountain, and a high wall is erected on the other three sides to defend it.
Strictly speaking, Isengar was a fortress under the jurisdiction of Gondor, but Saruman took it from the Lord Regent and became a symbol of his status.
As long as Esinger is mentioned, everyone in Middle-earth will immediately think of the white-robed Saruman. As the head of the Five Witches, his popularity was pushed to the top, crushing the other four Gandalf combined.
"Nurtured by the River Aishin, it was a verdant and comfortable home with plenty of trees and meadows, but Saruman destroyed them and many of the people died......
The treebeard had a sad face, and the treemen had believed in the white-robed Saruman, but they were persecuted, and their bodies were cut off and ignited, turning into a raging flame of forging swords and armor.
The Eisinger in front of him fits the description of the tree's whiskers, the lush green has become a thing of the past, and the pits left by the uprooting of the giant tree can be seen everywhere.
The devastated scene, like an ugly scar in the middle of the mountain range, is evident in the torrent of Saruman's violent soldiers, and the destruction of the environment.
"Roar Roar Roar ————"
When they arrived at the gate of the fortress, they were greeted by the corpses of orc deserters all over the ground, and hundreds of wolf cavalry drank blood from their swords and roared at the army.
The orcs stationed in Issinger brandished their swords in demonstration, and the wolf under his crotch was restless, walking back and forth in place, his eyes flickering fiercely, stimulated by the smell of blood, and became extremely violent.
Saruman is not willing to surrender, and has to fight one last time!
The Rohan cavalry drew their swords and raised their spears to charge, but Gandalf stopped them and said to Hieudon: "Isengar can only outwit, not storm, the battle of the Valley of the Holy Helmet has shed too much blood to allow the soldiers to continue to die." ”
Heyudon wanted to say that the defenders of Fort Clarion hadn't lost many dead and that the Rohan soldiers and horses were still strong, but Gandalf said that he could outwit them, so he would have outwitted them.
"How to outwit?"
"I have arranged for the Bearded people to go to Masidras, and we will only have to wait until the flood will flood Isengard, crush the last of Saruman's army, and then the army of Rohan will reap the victory." Gandalf Zhizhu was in his hand, and he stroked his white beard with a smile.
The fortress of Isengar is easy to defend and difficult to attack, at least for humans, but its weakness is also extremely deadly, and Gandalf planned it ten years ago...... Ahem, Gandalf pondered on the way here, and came up with a plan to flood the fortress.
"Gandalf, who is also a mage, is far from you when it comes to leading the army in battle, he can only suppress with numbers, and has no artistic beauty of war." After listening to Gandalf's account, Hiudon clapped his hands.
"Hehe, King Xiyudon is serious, I'm just a little anxious, compared to your hussar king's ability to lead the army to fight, it's far inferior." Gandalf brushed his beard harder, and that was the script he wanted.
"Where, where, you are the best!"
"I'm ashamed!"
"Everybody's amazing, hahaha———"
"Hahaha————"
The two bad old men blew each other for business, and they didn't want their faces, and Russell was very contemptuous. Saruman will only suppress with numbers, and has no artistic beauty of war, is this a human word?
Generals who are good at leading troops to fight wars know that crushing and flattening the number of people is the king, and the next policy is to scheming and defeating the strong with the weak.
Han Xin points troops, the more the merrier, the way to win in the hearts of top generals is very simple, that is, there are more people!
Russell knew in his heart that the two bad old men understood this truth, but who made Saruman an an enemy now, it was impossible to blow him up, and he could only be criticized for being a brain-dead fan.
Boom————
In the distant mountains, the gate was destroyed by the tree people, and a huge amount of water rushed out, with a rumbling sound, forming a superimposed torrent of violent torrents, sweeping down with the momentum of destroying the world and destroying the earth.
The flood passed through the territory, unstoppable, the earth and rocks collapsed, uprooted, mixed with the monstrous flood, turned into a tsunami-like natural disaster, the horror of nature, at this moment vividly manifested.
Thundered!!!
Eshin was extraordinary, sensing the vibration under his feet, and the two sides behaved inconsistently.
The half-orc wolf cavalry's face was pale, and the catastrophe of annihilation came, all of which were unintentional in love.
"Warriors of Rohan, follow me through the obstacles ahead, cut off the heads of the orcs, and pay tribute to the dead heroes of Fort Clarrum."
"Kill! Kill! Kill ———"
The Rohan cavalry and the Treants raised their arms and shouted, and followed Heudon with their swords drawn, and 2,000 iron hooves trampled down, slashing the less than 300 wolf cavalry under their horses.
Wave after wave, simple and rude, at this time, Heudon did not mention the art of war!
In Isenger, the surging torrent was unstoppable, flooding Saruman's underground arsenal, and the thousands of orc defenders were swallowed up and drowned by the torrent without even a single wave.
The terrifying amount of water was incalculable, flooding the underground base of the Esinger Fortress, toppling all the superstructures, and the flood water reached the waist of ordinary people.
This is a height that is very unfriendly to dwarves, but fortunately, there are several gates on the fortress wall, which constantly vent the torrent outward, otherwise, the touching height of Jin Li, he should have drifted after entering for a while.
"Be careful, even though Isengar was destroyed by the flood, as long as Saruman is alive, this is still one of the most dangerous fortresses in Middle-earth."
Gandalf sat on the shoulders of the trees, lighting up the illumination to lead the way, and the Fellowship of the Ring rode each of the treemen into the country.
The Rohan cavalry was ordered to stand outside the city gates, and orders from Heudon were given to deal with unpredictable mages, and it was not better to have more of them on their side.
At the foot of the Black Tower, Gandalf held up his radiant staff, and his white robe was very conspicuous, as if to show off. But this is not the case, Gandalf's white robe is so shiny and shiny because the white color does not absorb light, and it is not forcibly displayed.
Believe it or not, Gandalf insisted on this point of view, he was a mature Maia, long past the age of vindictiveness, so he didn't mean to show it to Saruman.
"Saruman, how long are you going to hide, face your fate, and meet the judgment!" Gandalf shouted, and the sound of thunder echoed incessantly, as if it could be heard throughout Middle-earth.
As Gandalf's voice fell, Saruman's figure appeared at the top of the Black Tower, also with white beard and hair, and the same image of a wise and handsome old man, Saruman was a little more noble than Gandalf in temperament.
This is evident in his white robe, which should have been unadorned plain white, set with rich gold threads and precious stones.
"Saruman, you have fallen!"
Looking at the glittering Saruman, Gandalf was heartbroken, and the light of his staff skyrocketed, and the white robe on his body became brighter.
Saruman condescended and shouted angrily, "Shut up, you despicable, shameless, shameless gray robe...... I didn't fall, I just found my way in life! ”
