There was a panicked birdsong, and the two birds were fleeing to him in a panic, and Ridagast quickly took off his hat, revealing the nest on his head, and let the two birds hide in it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Collecting the two birds, Ridagast was just about to leave, a painful ** caught his attention again, turned his head, and saw his hedgehog friend, Sebastian, curled up there in pain, struggling.

"Oh! No! Sebastian! What's wrong with you? ”

Ridagast ran over in a panic, hugged his hedgehog friend in his arms, and galloped all the way back to his home.

As the sub-god Maia who followed the goddess of plants, Yavanna, Ridagast was proficient in pharmacology and medicine, and was a veritable master of medicine.

Rudagast quickly dispensed the healing potions from the cabinet, but unfortunately, whether it was potions, powders, potions, or even smoke, none of them improved Sebastian's condition in the slightest, and the poor little hedgehog was still struggling in pain on the table.

"I don't understand why it doesn't work! Damn it! It's not witchcraft! ”

Ruida Gaste looked very irritable, and his mouth became scolding, and suddenly, Ruida Gaste was stunned, the pupils in his eyes shrank, and the expression of the whole person became a little bad, "No! It's witchcraft! It's that evil and powerful black magic ... ”

As one of Maia sent to Middle-earth by the Lord God, Radagast knows the horror of black witchcraft better than anyone, which reminds him of a forbidden name that has disappeared for many years, but has been forbidden to mention, an extremely evil and terrifying existence, the Dark Lord - Sauron.

It was only at this time that Ridagast noticed something strange around him, huge shadows had surrounded his wizard's hut, the sunlight was gradually blocked, and the darkness slowly enveloped the entire forest.

The atmosphere around became more and more terrifying, darkness enveloped the wizard's hut, the temperature around it began to drop, and uneasiness enveloped all the life in the hut, out of instinctive avoidance of danger, all the creatures of the wizard's hut instinctively approached, and Rydagast was the only creature that could provide safety.

In a panic, he pressed his chair against the door of the house, and a strong sense of crisis made Ridagast take out the sapphire in his staff.

This is an artifact given to him by the Lord God, with great power, the same as Radagast, and the rest of the wizards sent to Middle-earth also have an artifact staff, which together is known as the staff of the Five Witches.

Holding Sebastian the hedgehog in one hand and a sapphire in the other, Redagast muttered a jerky and strange spell in his mouth.

The other critters in the room ran to Ridagast, hoping to get a sense of security from him.

The dark and evil aura has completely enveloped the wizard's hut of Ridagast, and huge black spiders are crawling all over the roof with their teeth and claws, and their hard and sharp teeth have pierced the roof of the hut, and the thin wooden hut is no longer enough to provide protection for Rydagast.

Don't underestimate these spiders, they are the descendants of the evil god Ugoliant, the descendants of the ancient giant spider Angelion, even if their strength is less than one percent of their ancestors, but they are not something that Ridagaste, a Maia who has been sealed with power, can compete with.

However, Ridagast did not react, still silently reciting the incantation, this is the last struggle, race against time, success, the evil is dispelled, defeat, defeat and death.

The spider had broken through the hut's defenses, and Redagast was on the verge of dying under the spider's fangs.

Tremble in the balance.

The witchcraft of Ridagast is complete!

An imperceptible brilliance flashed on the sapphire, instantly absorbing the evil power in the body of the little hedgehog Sbasti, and at the same time dispelling the evil aura around him.

Once again, good defeated evil, and once again the light defeated the darkness.

Defeated the enemy, but there was not the slightest expression of joy on Ridagast's face, and he ran out of the house, looking at the figure of the giant spider that gradually disappeared into the depths of the forest, Radagast's brow furrowed even tighter.

This sudden appearance of evil power is too weird, too secretive, and the dark jungle he guards has been silently eroded in this way, evading his own perception, which makes Ridagast's heart even more uneasy, because it reminds him of the forbidden name - Sauron.

Just when Ridagast was determined to explore the reality of these great spiders, on the other side of the continent, in the Arno region, a small town had been established.

After a period of careful preparation, coupled with the resources collected by three hundred subordinates one after another, a larger and more stable space-time portal was established, and this time, more subordinates and more manpower were brought to Li Luan.

Li was already preparing to establish a small state first, to set up an outpost and base for himself on the Middle-earth continent.

The army that arrived this time was the elite of the elite, although there were only 3,000 people, of which the cavalry was only 500, but this was a super army, the cavalry was sharper than those nomadic knights of Rohan, and the infantry was also stronger than the legions of Gondor.

Don't think that 3,000 people are very small, and don't forget that Middle-earth is vast and sparsely populated.

Throughout the history of Middle-earth, the number of people who participated in those recorded mega-battles was, to be honest, really small.

Not to mention anything else, it is the nearest famous battle of the five armies, the number of participants, 1,000 elves in the dark forest, more than 500 dwarves in the Iron Hill and Lonely Mountain, but less than 600 people, 200 humans in Changhu Town, more than 15,000 troops in Moriaa and the Orcs of Gondaba, the entire famous war, the entire combined, is less than 20,000 people.

Looking at the war after that, the battle of the Holy Helmet Valley, the strong orc legion on the attacking side was only more than 10,000 people, and the Rohan Kingdom on the defending side was only 300 people, although more Rohan people gathered in the Holy Helmet Valley later, and there were more than 200 elf reinforcements, but the whole total did not exceed 1,000 people, and later turned the tide of the war, it was Gandalf who brought 2,000 cavalry led by Iomo, well, the whole battle did not exceed 20,000 people.

In the Battle of the Plains of Paliano, there were about 11,250 humans and about 45,000 Mordor.

Even in the largest battle, the Battle of the Black Gate, the Western coalition forces on the participating side were about 6,000 people, and Mordor had at least 60,000 people.

Well, throughout the entire history of Middle-earth, there has not even been a single battle of more than 100,000 men.

This can't be compared to the general battles of my Great Celestial Empire where hundreds of thousands of people are at every turn.

Therefore, the 3,000 people of Li Luw's worries are really a lot of force now, even if Luo Khan, one of the powerful countries in mankind, mobilized the strength of the whole country, there are only more than 10,000 cavalry, and Gondor, the permanent force is only 6,000 people, and the emergency mobilization in wartime does not exceed 20,000, which is already the strength of the whole country.

Now that the armed forces of the country are in place, the next step is to choose the location of the state.

This outpost battle is not a one-time item, what Li Luxian wants is a base that can send nourishment to the Great Qin Empire in an endless stream, so the country's geographical location must be carefully chosen.

First of all, in order to be able to better collect resources, it is not too far away from other races in Middle-earth, so it is inconvenient for trade, there are no trains or automobiles on Middle-earth, and it is all dependent on manpower or animal power to get there, and then it cannot be too close to the place where the war broke out later, which will undoubtedly involve Li Luan's energy, and will also attract unnecessary losses for the Great Qin Empire.

There are no particularly big wars that will break out at this time, and although Sauron has begun to recover, he is still in the period of accumulating strength, and the real big war will be a hundred years away.

In a hundred years, the wars between Sauron and the other races of Middle-earth will begin to break out in earnest, and there are two main places of war, one is the war between Rohan and Isengard, the focus is on the Valley of the Holy Helm, and then there is the war between Gondor and Mordor, the battle is between Gondor's capital, Minas Tirith, which is commonly known as the White City.

Both of these battles were in the southeastern part of Middle-earth, near Mordor's side.

After all this consideration, Li decided to establish the country in the northwest of Rohan, near the region of Rivendell, which was considered part of the former kingdom of Assidon.

In this way, not only can you start trade relations with elves and humans at the same time, collect their resources, but at a critical moment, you can also intervene in the war in Middle-earth and influence the situation in Middle-earth.

As for the name of the country, it is still called Daqin.

The establishment of Great Qin, of course, attracted the attention of Rohan and Rivendell, because Great Qin was in the middle of these two countries, and as long as the kings of these two countries were not fools, they would notice this suddenly rising neighbor.

During this period, both Rohan and Rivendell had sent people to inquire about it, and in this regard, Li Luwei also directly stated that Daqin adhered to the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence and had no intention of opposing other countries, and that his own country had enough food and could sell it to their country in exchange for other resources.

This plays into the hands of Rohan and Rivendell.

Why is there such a small population in Middle-earth? They don't have any family planning, and they're not troubled by food.

The production of grain limits the growth of the population, and even their own stomachs cannot be fed, and there is no talk of feeding children.

As for why Li Luwei was able to come up with so much grain to sell, firstly, Li Luwei had high-yield grain crops that were completely absent in the Middle-earth Continent, and secondly, Li Luyao's subordinates also had some people who were proficient in the way of druids, and the efficiency of large-scale grain cultivation was several times higher than that of modern mechanical planting.

In exchange for cheap grain for precious resources, Li Luan's calculations should not be too shrewd.

As for whether other countries will use these grains as seeds to cultivate their own fertile land, Li Luwei said that he is not worried at all, countless capitalists have taught Li Luwei that seeds can only be planted for one season to make money. (To be continued.) )
