Chapter 47: The Battle of the Valley of the Holy Helmet (1)

World of the Ring, Middle-earth, Valley of the Holy Helm.

After several days of traveling, everyone finally arrived at the Valley of the Holy Helm. It is a huge castle built in the deepest part of the valley, and the walls of the castle are all made of tons of huge stones.

After entering the valley from the outside of the valley, it is a low-lying land with more than 20 meters of ups and downs, only in the middle there is a winding road leading to the city gate of the Horn Fort, and on both sides of the city gate, there are walls tens of meters high and ten meters wide, and the long city wall surrounds the entire valley. The top of the city wall is not narrow, and ten people standing side by side are not too tight. In addition to the gates of the Horn Fort in front, there was a culvert to allow the water of the deep stream to enter the city, so that the warriors could be supplied with water during the long war in the valley. Of course, this culvert has also become a weak point in this impregnable wall. Of course, at the suggestion of the reincarnators who are familiar with the plot, this culvert was also closed. Of course, it is not completely closed, leaving some holes in the middle for the water to enter, but it will not be a weakness for the enemy to exploit. At the same time, the power prevents the enemy from poisoning the water source, and at the same time, a water filtration system is installed at the mouth of the canal, and a number of monitoring magic arrays are also set up, as long as the water source has changed, you can receive a prompt immediately.

At the same time, the reincarnators also helped the soldiers of the Rohan Kingdom to do all kinds of defenses, according to Li Nan's plan, the low-lying land on both sides of the passage, dug twenty or thirty meters deep, and then filled it with spears, if the strong orcs want to attack through the low-lying land on both sides, then at least tens of thousands of strong orcs must be filled in first, in order to fill these two pits, and then let the mage burn the corpses in the pit to ashes with a fire, I see how many more lives you strong orcs have to fill the pit. At the same time, in the nearby valley, a large number of boulders were collected, and the defending side of the city rolled wood and stones, how could there be less of these sharp weapons.

In the city, in addition to the original tens of thousands of soldiers, a large number of men were also transferred, and then they were issued armor and weapons, and a temporary militia group of almost 50,000 people was assembled. And thanks to the large number of refugees, without whom this militia would not have been formed. Now they are training, they are just civilians, they are farmers, blacksmiths, carpenters, merchants, and all kinds of professions, but there are no soldiers among them. Now the officers have a full schedule of drills, just hoping to make them stronger before the orcs attack, to increase the chances of surviving the war.

The women, the old and the children, had all been moved to the cave behind the Horn Castle. Of course, these people are not idle, and the logistics work is entrusted to them, maintaining and polishing the spare weapons and equipment, some are making arrows, and some are responsible for cooking, which is the food of hundreds of thousands of people, which is not a trivial matter. In addition, a corner of the cave was carved out as a place for the treatment of the wounded, so a medical team was also assembled.

About a week after Li Nan and the others arrived in the Valley of the Holy Helmet, Io Mo also returned to the Valley of the Holy Helmet with the elite troops of the Royal Knights. For a week, they harassed and attacked the Orc army to slow down their march. After a week's delay, they also returned to the Valley of the Helm, as King Rohan had given them an order to delay for a week. From their intelligence, the orcs are still about three days away from here. Only the last few days remained, except for the daily training and the task of going out to search for food, everyone extended the rest time to recharge for the rest of the battle.

And with the knights led by Iomo came the reinforcements of Rivendell, although the number was not very large, only a few hundred archery troops, but they were all the elite of Rivendell, and with this force to help defend the city, it was better than thousands of warriors.

And for the reinforcements of the elven clan, King Rohan was also very excited, after all, until the position just now, he only thought that the Rohan country could only fight alone. In addition to the archery troops, there are Gandalf and the rest of the five reincarnation squads. Looking at these people outside the city, Li Nan couldn't help but cover his forehead, Gandalf, can you be a little more pitiful, you have been going for so long, and you just found the reinforcements of Rivendell that would have come. Well, Gandalf's only role is to bring the other reincarnators with him. But that's enough, before the strong orc troops can't fill the two big holes dug by Li Nan, the only thing they can attack is the passage in the middle. And this narrow passage is simply a one-man pass, and it is impossible to open it, as long as two Zheng Zha go to the top of the station, they can guard this passage until they are old.

Of course, there are other things in the support of the knight Rivendell, that is, a large number of longbows and arrows, which are put into the space equipment of the reincarnators, and these things fill the weapons warehouse of the Horn Fortress.

And the three days passed quickly, and not long after dinner on the third day, the troops of the strong orcs had already arrived. Now the walls were full of soldiers, all staring at the front, and there were plenty of torches and trays of fire in the city, illuminating the surroundings as if it were daylight. The Orc troops were like a fiery red carpet, covering the outside of the valley, and then countless orc infantry with torches were constantly advancing into the valley.

At this time, the troops of the strong orcs stopped at the edge of the valley, and as long as they went further, they entered the valley. Of course, in addition to walking through the passage, the strong orcs on both sides of the other sides had to jump to the low-lying ground with a drop of more than 20 meters, where a big pit dug by Li Nan was waiting for them.

After the formation was over, the leaders of the strong orcs roared loudly, and then the strong orcs lined up below also let out a neat roar in response, while constantly hitting the ground with their weapons. And with this scene in front of him, which seemed to be a ritual or a war song, the strange energy that he had seen before spread in the camp of the strong orcs again, and then covered the entire team.

At the same time, there was also action here, the huge horn in the Horn Fort began to be blown, and at the same time, the trumpeters in each team also took out the horn and blew it, and at the same time the officers began to shout loudly to boost the morale of the soldiers. Although their words were almost drowned out by the sound of horns, as the soldiers responded loudly, as if a chemical reaction had occurred, and the soldiers began to gush out that strange energy. The same thing happened not only to the soldiers, but also to the members of the reincarnation squad.

I didn't understand what was going on at all, but suddenly a force began to envelop my body, and at the same time, this energy also connected all the soldiers together, and Li Nan's heart suddenly swelled with a feeling of blood boiling. Through this energy, Li Nan could feel all the soldiers, and at the same time, he was infected by their high fighting spirit, and there was also an indescribable feeling, but Li Nan did not hate the current situation.

In order to understand this power before, Li Nan, Zhang Heng and Luo Yinglong used their bodies to resist the attack of the legion of the strong orc troops, but after that, they all studied together many times, but they had no clue at all, but this time after feeling it personally, Li Nan gained a lot. He found that this connection did not appear in the elves, but the reinforcements of Rivendell flashed with a green light, which was an energy full of vitality. And Li Nan and the soldiers of the Rohan Kingdom shone with a silver light, and Li Nan felt that this light could give him faster speed, stronger strength, stronger defense, and stronger impact. Speed, strength, and impact are the most important elements that cavalry needs, so the silver brilliance of the Rohan Kingdom is to bless this, making their cavalry faster and stronger.

In addition to this, Legolas is an elf, but he shines with the silver light of the Rohan Kingdom, and the dwarf Golden Thunderbolt is the same. For this scene, Li Nan was puzzled again, why was Legolas, who was also an elf, not classified as an elf in Rivinedell? Is it because they are elves from different places? Or is it because Legolas is now teammates with them, so he has received the same blessings, and this energy is team-based?

However, the situation did not give Li Nan time to think carefully, and as the forces on both sides were blessed, the troops of the strong orcs officially began to charge, and the three-way troops, including the troops on both sides, jumped down from the high ground one after another. For the strong orcs who were blessed by strength, the difference of more than 20 meters was nothing, and when they landed steadily, they didn't stop at all, and then they began to charge forward. In the middle team, all the strong orcs raised their shields one after another, preventing the front, back, left and right and above from preventing the arrows from the city wall from hurting them. Then there was a neat line and they moved forward.

And the big pit on both sides, Li Nan did not start when the strong orcs just stepped on it, but when the strong orcs' troops had almost reached the edge of the big pit, Li Nan, who was standing on the city wall, snapped his fingers gently, and then the ground in the low-lying ground suddenly collapsed, and the strong orcs walking on it fell into the big pit one after another, and the two big pits were dug very deep by Li Nan, and the black hole could not see the bottom, and it was not enough to hear the sound of a large number of sharp blades inserting into the body before long, as well as the screams of the strong orcs.

And because of the suddenness of the incident, the strong orcs behind did not notice the big pit at all, and kept jumping from the high ground into the big pit. Later, I found that something was wrong, and I was able to stop, but I was immediately pushed into the pit by the strong orcs who came up from behind.
