World of the Ring, Middle-earth, Rohan.

"Ah......" Just as everyone was still in the midst of the joy of defeating Saruman, suddenly the screams of the hobbits were heard. Well, everyone knew that the hobbits were stupid, but they didn't expect them to be so stupid, and they dared to use whatever Saruman left behind.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and saw that the hobbit Pi Ping was holding the crystal ball in both hands, and then his face was very painful, and at the same time, he kept screaming from his mouth. And beside him, there was Merry who looked at a loss.

Gandalf pointed his staff at the crystal ball, and Pipin collapsed, and then the crystal ball in his hand came out of his hand and fell into the pit.

Gandalf crouched down beside Pippin, then put his hand on his forehead and whispered a mantra. It was a spell used to calm the nerves, and after a while, Pipin's face soothed. Soon after, Pippin woke up, gasping for breath and looking in pain, and said to Gandalf, who was chanting a spell for him, "I'm sorry, Gandalf. ”

"Look at me and calm down." Gandalf whispered, "Did you see anything?" ”

Listening to Gandalf's words, Pipin clearly remembered what he had just seen, and his body trembled again. Said bitterly: "A tree...... I saw a white tree, in the middle of the courtyard of Ishitoru, and then it died, and the city was burning. ”

"Minas Tirith, that's all you see?" Gandalf asked again in a low voice. Aragorn and Boromo, who were on the side, looked nervous after hearing Pipin's words.

"Minas Tirith, are those filthy orcs going to attack Gangze?" Boromo shouted, "No, we need to get back to Minas Tirith as soon as possible." ”

"I saw ...... too," Pipin whispered again intermittently, "I saw him too, I heard it." ”

"Sauron." Gandalf whispered, "What did you tell him?" Say it. ”

"He asked me who I was, I didn't say, and then he attacked me. ”

"Did you mention Frodo and the Lord of the Rings?" Gandalf asked the point. However, Pi Pin was obviously almost unable to hold on, just shook his head, and then fainted.

Two hours later, the group returned to the camp, after all, there was no way to discuss such an important matter there just now. Then the group came to a tent in the center of the camp.

"I can tell that Pipin is not lying." Gandalf said, "He's a stupid boy, but he's also an honest stupid boy. He didn't tell Sauron about Frodo and the Lord of the Rings. By this time, Pipin had woken up, and he was sitting in the corner with his head down. What happened when he was holding the crystal ball just now was obviously not a good memory, you must know that he was directly connected with Sauron. And Saruman, who did this before, has become a group with Sauron.

Gandalf then continued, "We are lucky that Pippin saw the enemy's plan on the crystal ball of knowledge, and Sauron intended to attack Minas Tirith. The fiasco in the Valley of the Holy Helm taught him one thing, the heir of Elendil had appeared, and humanity was not as fragile as he thought. Humanity still has the courage and perhaps enough strength to challenge him. Sauron fears this, he cannot let the people of Middle-earth fight under the same banner, and he intends to destroy Minas Tirith and prevent the return of the king of mankind. If Gunze ignites the beacon, the Rohan must prepare for war. As he spoke, the crowd looked at Hieudon, the king of the Rohanate.

However, the king's return clearly disappointed Gandalf: "Tell me, why should we send troops to our aid when they did not come to our aid in our most dangerous time?" What did we do before? ”

Listening to Xiyodon's words, everyone present couldn't help but shake their heads, and Gandalf could only sigh in disappointment, after all, what King Rohan said was that when the Rohan Kingdom retreated to the Valley of the Holy Helmet, he also wanted Gangze to ask for help, but in the end, the only reinforcements were the elves brought by Gandalf. So even if King Rohan refused, the others couldn't do anything, and Boromo clenched his fists tightly.

"If we forget the ruthlessness of Gangze, forget that they did not rescue us when we were most in danger, and run over like this, we in the Rokhanate will have no dignity for scientific research, so we will definitely not go to the rescue. Unless...... Unless Gangze lights the ancient beacon and lets them tell us in person that they have reached a point of life and death, and need the blood of our Rokhanate to save them. Otherwise, even if the orcs of Mordor set foot on Gangze, our Rohan Kingdom will not send a single soldier. With that, King Rohan turned and left the tent.

Watching King Rohan leave, Gandalf sighed, and then said, "Aragorn, you must take the other road to Gangze, go up the river, and look for the big black boat. Then he turned to the crowd and said, "You should all understand, the great war is about to break out, I am going to Minas Tirith, but I will not go alone, I need your help." ”

The people came to the camp's stables, and although the king of Rohan refused to send troops, he agreed to provide them with horses.

Lifting Pippin up and putting him on his horse, Gandalf said to Pippin, "If you ride a horse, it will take you three days to reach Minas Tirith, and the Ringwraiths fly from the sky, so you better pray that they won't catch up." ”

Well, listening to Gandalf's words, Pippin's whole face darkened, and even though his friend Merry gave him a pack of tobacco, it didn't make him feel better.

And Li Nan, who was riding on the nightmare next to him, gently patted Pi Ping's shoulder, and then said, "Well done, hobbit." Although I know that you hobbits like to die, I never thought that you hobbits would be so good at death. You have once again refreshed the lower limit of bear children in my mind, and sure enough, hobbits are all little experts in death. ”

Half an hour later, dozens of horses rushed out of the camp and galloped towards the Fagon forest. This time, the only characters in the plot are Gandalf, Boromo and Pipin, while the others team up with Aragorn to farm dungeons.

Because of their reputation for friendship with the Treants, they were able to travel directly through the Fagon Forest to the border of Gangze, which greatly shortened the time required to travel, otherwise it would have taken at least two weeks to reach Minas Tirith from the Rohan Kingdom.

Of course, although the time was greatly shortened, everyone still hurried as fast as possible, and they hurried without sleep for three consecutive days and three nights, except for Gandalf's horse king and a few nightmares of the Zhongzhou team, the reason why other ordinary horses were able to survive was mainly because Zhan Lan brushed all the horses with an endurance BUFF, which greatly increased the horse's physical strength. Of course, it is worth mentioning that Saruman's spy kitten lady also followed, she sat behind Zhan Lan, and of course, for Nightmare, there was no pressure for the two to ride together. Of course, Li Nan didn't know how this cat lady persuaded Zhan Lan, but now Saruman didn't know where to hide to heal.

Although he let Saruman run away before, before he escaped, Li Nan detonated all the poisonous gases hidden in his body at once, and seriously injured Saruman again, of course, this was the last hand that Li Nan buried in Saruman's body. Of course, Li Nan didn't care about this, after all, although this back hand was relatively hidden, it had a time limit, and if it wasn't used, it would expire with the passage of time, so Li Nan activated it directly without any burden.

Along the way, the people hardly had a good rest, and when the dawn of the fourth day came, a huge and majestic white city appeared in front of them in the morning light.

"This is the capital of Gangze, and it is also the most magnificent city of mankind, Minas Tirith, also known as the capital of kings, this is a symbol of human power, once this place is attacked by the army of Mordor's orcs, then we humans will be finished." Gandalf sighed, patted the White Horse King on the head, and sprinted away towards the White Capital.

Bolomo, who was like an arrow, ignored Gandalf and rushed to the city first, and then everyone rode up on horseback. Because of Boromo's presence, the city defense army did not stop everyone at all, and the whole team was allowed to enter the city. Of course, at the same time, because Boromo opened the way, even the people who were cut in line had no complaints, and in Gangze, Boromo's reputation was still very good.

"Alright, let's go see my father now." After entering the city, Boromo led the people to the palace on the top floor. After tying up the horses, Gandalf and Pippin followed Boromo into the palace, of course, the reincarnators did not follow in, everyone knew the plot, so everyone stood on the edge of the city wall, looking at the scenery in the distance, waiting for time to pass.

When Gandalf and the others went to see the regent who had just chosen, they learned from the regent that they did not want the Rohan to come to their aid, because he knew that Aragorn, the royal heir of Gangze, was there, and he did not want Gangze to return to the king, because in this way, he, the regent, would have nowhere to go, so he flatly rejected Gandalf's proposal and lit a beacon to ask for help from the Rohanate.

"Stupid! It's stupid! Even if the country was his now, what would he gain when Mordor leveled it? He won't get anything, he can only die here, so why doesn't he give the country back to the king, and still leave a good name for it? Gandalf walked out of the palace in a rage, and he walked to the observation deck of the city, from which he could see the likes of Mordor beyond the distant mountains, which were blood-red, as if something was burning in the atmosphere.

Gandalf said with a gloomy face, "We have lost, and humanity is on the verge of extinction...... Sauron has been resurrected, the One Ring has returned to it, but we humans are still intriguing, still fighting for that ethereal power, such an army, such a government...... How could we possibly defeat Mordor's tyrannical king...... We lost. ”

And ignoring Gandalf's disappointment, the hobbit Pippin just kept quietly looking at Mordor in the distance: "That's Mordor?" ”

"Yes. It's right there. Approaching Pippin's side, Gandalf whispered, "The city has been shrouded in its shadow for a long time,"

Gandalf pointed to the spreading black gas and said, "This is not a natural phenomenon, but a vision created by Sauron. It was a precursor to his aggressive offensive. The orcs of Mordor could not stand the sun, so he kept him under the cover so that they could embark on their journey. When the shadow of Mordor arrives in the city, the Great War begins. Then, according to the original plan, Pi Ping, you will light the beacon. ”

Pippin was now intently looking at the fiery red sky in the distance, but when he turned around, he heard Gandalf's words, and suddenly the little hobbit had a premonition in his heart to make up for it.

A day later, the beacon of Minas Tirith was lit, and Gandalf's plan was carried out successfully.

When the beacon fire reached the capital of the Rohanate, the king of Rohan, Xiyouton, still agreed to send troops to Gangze very decisively, in fact, as a superior person, he naturally knew the truth of the cold lips and teeth, even if the cavalry of the Rohan Kingdom was strong, they could not face the forces of Mordor alone, the only thing they could do was to join Gangze's army and resist the Orc army of Mordor together.

"It's unfortunate, but I'm going to tell you." After listening to the words of a scout cavalry, Xiyoudon's face suddenly became heavy and said: "After the Battle of the Holy Helmet Valley began, I have sent several scout cavalry to Gangxuan, one is to ask them for help, and the other is to see if Mordor's army has begun to attack, and now they are back, and they have also brought the power of the demon army they have seen...... Unfortunately, we'll be facing an army of a million orcs, orcs, and ogres, larger than we had previously thought, and more powerful than the Unholy Alliance of the Elder Rings...... Our Rokhanate was able to go to war, listening to the army of only five or five cavalry, that's all......"

This is in the palace of King Rohan, when Xiyoton decided to send troops, he did not hesitate to arrange and gather troops, so that all the troops he led maintained the strongest combat effectiveness, and until this scout and the news would be reasonable, this million number of half-orc troops, but in an instant, everyone's confidence was destroyed, this is not the real world, it is Middle-earth, even in the records of ancient wars, there has never been such a huge number of evil forces gathered, this force is indeed too huge.

"So...... Just go find a new salute! ”

A voice suddenly came from outside the palace, and when everyone looked over, they saw a man in a cloak walking from outside the palace, and when he walked in front of everyone, he took off his cloak, and this man was one of the recipients of the three elven rings, Elven King Elon.
