Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

The migration of a dwarven clan, or the migration of nearly 100,000 people, has too many things to prepare, not only food and drink, but also medicinal supplies, livestock labor, marching routes, escort troops, and sleeping and resting tents along the way, and many other things, under normal circumstances, even according to the ancient personal standards of the feudal era, the long-distance migration of nearly 100,000 people needs to be prepared for at least a month or two.

However, Chu Hao has a little extra time of one or two months, this trip to the Blue Mountains has already exceeded three or four days than he expected, he must hurry up to start his plan, otherwise he may not be able to catch up with Thorin's trip, even if Tholin is a long way away, and he is trekking in the mountains and forests, but calculating the time, these dwarf armies have passed from the plains, it is estimated that they will have to hurry up.

However, thanks to those aristocratic alliances, the human beings in Middle-earth are not short of horses, large and small nobles have a lot of horses, they basically have formed cavalry troops, and in this aristocratic coalition, there are more than 6,000 horses obtained after the war, which are still intact, or only lightly injured horses, and the other horses have been made into jerky, these more than 6,000 sturdy military horses, plus the dwarves themselves have livestock and horses, are basically the main means of transportation for this migration, In addition, the dwarves of Turin already had the experience of migration when they left the lonely mountain, which came in handy at this time, similar to the long carriage of the nomads, and what could be loaded up, which could be used as a sleeping residence or as a mobility vehicle, which was indeed very convenient.

In addition, in the Blue Mountain Revolution, those aristocratic property copied out, gold or something is basically useless in wartime, but the food is different, and these nobles have the habit of collecting armor weapons, the loss in this battle was quickly replenished, although the current Turin dwarf army is strictly shrunk, strictly speaking, there are only about 5,000 dwarf troops, but the combat effectiveness is completely different from before the coalition army breaks the city, at least now when it encounters an army of the level of the aristocratic coalition army, it can basically be easily defeated.

When the provisional government announced the next action to the dwarves of the Blue Mountains, it was taken for granted that it caused widespread controversy and dissatisfaction among the people, and many dwarves protested, in fact, this is also of course, the most terrifying of all the horrors is the unknown, which is the same reason as the original Blue Mountain dwarves were unwilling to follow Thorin to recover the Lonely Mountain, it cannot be said that the dwarves do not love Thorin, including most of the nobles who were purged by Chu Hao, they are actually also loved and consider themselves to be Thorin subjects, But they didn't follow Thorin to reclaim the Lonely Mountain, that's why they didn't go with them.

However, the provisional government was reorganized by Chu Hao himself, which is no longer the kind of aristocratic government in the feudal era, closer to the modern and modern political system, and also added some content of the earthly heaven party, not to mention that the administrative strength and administrative speed are far more than the aristocratic government, and the dwarf Cheka that was just established is not vegetarian, as well as public opinion propaganda, various situations in the lonely mountain, and rumors that the have returned to the mountain, etc., these offensives started together, plus everyone has a herd mentalityIn this case, all the actions are really fast, although there are still some dwarves who are reluctant to Blue Mountain, but the whole team really started three days later.

At the same time, among the hundreds of people who escaped from the aristocratic coalition at that time, there were also many human and dwarven nobles, and they brought back the incredible fate of the aristocratic coalition, and afterwards there were many forces to investigate, after knowing the fate of the captives of the aristocratic coalition, these forces were secretly jealous, and the multiple forces began to contact, and a new round of coalition seemed to be forming again, if not for anything else, just to completely wipe out the new forces that endangered the aristocracy.

However, at this moment, the Blue Mountain is empty, and the dwarves of Turin have really given up this great family business, and the whole family has migrated back to the Lonely Mountain, which is beyond the imagination of these nobles, but they have not stopped, and there is still something to mention later.

But it is said that Chu Hao led the Turin dwarves to start a great migration, because they don't have to avoid the whereabouts of the orc army like Thorin, so they don't have to take a detour to the mountains and woodlands to go to the lonely mountain, all the way is the plain, the migration of nearly 100,000 people is so vast that people can't see the edge, and thanks to the large number of horses and cattle and sheep in the Middle-earth world, these dwarves migrate by cattle and horses to pull the cart, and the speed is not slow, and the plains and grasslands have traveled all the way, and before you know it, it has been five days later.

"Huh? Found the feces and footprints of the orc-urus wolf? And it looks very fresh, less than a day or two? ”

In the center of the relocation force, a large tent was erected there, which was the current command center of the Turin Dwarven Central Army, which was responsible for the affairs of the Turin Dwarf army, and was also the only escort force of the current 100,000-strong migration force.

The current army of the dwarves is only more than 5,000 people, but Chu Hao still divided the three hundred dwarves who comprehended the fighting spirit, and each of them was equipped with two horses to patrol and spy, and most of these dwarves selected dwarves who had adventures and traveled in other places in the human world and Middle-earth, and at this moment, it was this patrol and spy force to report what was discovered.

Chu Hao thought about it very suspiciously, then shook his head and said: "No, a small army of orcs may appear, but there is really no possibility of the appearance of an army of orcs, their current large army should have rushed to Gushan, and there is no information from the traitors, they should have heard very little about the news of the human world and the dwarf world, they shouldn't know so quickly that we have carried out a big migration, so ...... Is it a small army of orcs raiding? ”

Although all inferences are such a result, Chu Hao still feels that something is wrong, because it is impossible for the orc raiding troops to go deep here, you must know that the current Middle-earth world is not the Middle-earth world of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, at this time, the dark lord Sauron has not been resurrected, and Middle-earth is still an orderly world ruled and managed by elves and wizards, like orcs, half-orcs, goblins, goblins and other dark creatures, they can only be forced to hide outside the wilderness, and they dare not approach humans at all, dwarves, In the territory of the elves, the appearance of orc wolf cavalry in the current place is really a rare thing.

Although Chu Hao didn't know why the facts were different from his inference, but since this was the case, it was impossible for him not to make arrangements, and immediately let most of the migrating troops make wartime adjustments, and concentrated the frames of women, children, old and young in the center of the team, and more than 5,000 dwarf troops were also gathered on alert at any time, and spent the night on guard.

But Chu Hao's heart did not relax, according to his speculation, there should not be an orc army here at this time anyway, but the reality deviated from his speculation, so it means that there is a problem with his speculation.

"Let's start with the speculation from the beginning, first of all, according to the development of the plot, when Thorin and they fell into the goblin kingdom, the goblin king sent a message to Asog, telling him that SΓΉ he was in the goblin kingdom, and when Thorin and they fled from the goblin kingdom, they were attacked by Asog as soon as they came out of the mountain, which means that Asog was not far from the goblin kingdom at that time, or had been waiting near the lonely mountain, according to this inference, now Asog should have been on the way to the lonely mountain anyway, And Asog must have known that after Thorin left Rivendell, he chose a dangerous place in the mountains and forests, and went around in a big circle to go to the Lonely Mountain, so it was impossible for him to send orc troops to wait on the road from the Blue Mountains to the Lonely Mountain at this time, because it was meaningless......"

Chu Hao is sitting quietly in a small tent at the moment, pondering something, maybe in the eyes of ordinary people, it is normal for reality to be inconsistent with speculation, but in the eyes of wise men, this is a very terrible big thing, because one is not good, every layout they do will be repeated, and details determine success or failure, this is definitely not an empty word, so Chu Hao must know what he missed.

"The whole inference goes on here, it is true that there should not be any orc army appearing, but the reality is that the orc army has appeared, judging from the detection intelligence, here a day or two ago, at least hundreds of orc wolf cavalry passed by, this is not a small number, at least as a spying for the army, this number already represents at least thousands of wolf cavalry, so, what is the reason why Assog sent the orc army to block here?"

"If we re-extrapolate from reality, the first possibility is that Asog thinks that Thorin may have returned to the Blue Mountains? He may have learned from some information that Thorin had secretly lurked back in the Blue Mountains, so could it be that Thorin and their journey through the mountains and forests was not smooth? Something outside of the plot happened that forced them to leave the dangerous road in the mountains and forests? It's a possibility, but it's not likely, otherwise Thorin would have returned to the Blue Mountains long ago......"

"The second possibility, Asog has eyes in the human world and the dwarf world, especially in the Blue Mountains, we have moles, betrayed our information to Asog, and Asog, who hates Thorin and the Turin dwarves, does not mind the complete extermination of these nearly 100,000 Turin dwarves, but the time is not right, after all, we have left the Blue Mountains so quickly, we have left the Blue Mountains in just a few days, even if there are eyeliners and moles, it is impossible to notify Asog in time, and even if it is notified in time, There's no way Assog is going to be here in advance, it's too unlikely......"

And then there's the third possibility...... A foreign force intervened and sued Asog of the relocation of the dwarves of Turin in the Blue Mountains, so this foreign force ...... Is it a wizard, or an elf, or ......"

"Is it the Celestial Squad?"

When Chu Hao seemed to have a flash of spiritual light in his mind, and he had already speculated that he had thought of this, suddenly, he heard the howl of a wolf, and the howl of the wolf resounded over this wasteland...... (To be continued)
