Chapter 159: The Battle of the Valley of the Holy Helmet
"Phew, what is that? so powerful that it can destroy the city wall!" Jin Li crawled out of a pile of rubble, and he was blown away by the heat wave of the explosion when he stood relatively close, but fortunately he was not injured by the protection of the Holy Light.

"It's alright, Kimli. Legolas rushed here as soon as he could, lifting the dwarf up, "Probably Saruman's evil alchemy." β
"Oops! an enemy has stormed the castle!" shouted as he watched the tide of enemies pour in.
"Go, Lord Swordblade Dwarf, now is the time to play your part and lead the paladins in the castle. Legolas poured, "Let me see who is better suited for this position, you or Bion." β
"Of course it's me!" the mighty sword-edged dwarf Golden Bolt!" the dwarf exclaimed excitedly, and rushed down the wall with his longarm in hand.
The paladins had been on standby behind the walls, and a hundred of them were taken by Iomo near the small gates to fend off the enemy forces attacking the gates.
When they saw that the walls were broken, they knew that the time had come for them to kill the enemy, and they jumped on their horses and took up arms.
Golden Bolt scurried to this place, jumping onto his goat's mount with a single jump. The goat, which Hiyudon had chosen from among the Rohan goats in his appreciation, was not as strong as the Iron Hills goat.
"Alright, guys, your commander is back, now show the enemy how good our paladins are!" Jin Li laughed.
"Commander Jin Li, as a sword blade, you can't do it, it seems too small. A paladin looked at the dwarf golden thunderbolt and the goat and smiled.
"Shut up! Paladin, I'm the Sword Blade Dwarf Golden Bolt! You little cubs follow me, don't fall into the prestige of our Holy Light Sword Array!"
"Command!" the paladins immediately shouted.
"Paladins! form a sword formation of holy light! charge!" Jin Li roared, raised his axe, and his whole body activated the holy light, and rushed towards the gap in the wall.
At this time, at the gap in the city wall, the strong orcs, barbarians, and trolls howled into the city under the rain of arrows and the holy light that made them very uncomfortable. The defenders, who were panicked by the explosion, could not stop them at all, and in an instant a large number of them were cut down. Just as the vanguard of Saruman's army was about to continue its march into the city, the sound of rumbling horses' hooves rang out in the city.
The golden thunderbolt was in high spirits, leading a torrent of steel of holy light, rushing from the city. Although he looked a little shorter as a blade, he was obviously much more powerful than the other paladins in activating holy light, just like the tip of the sword that made up this holy light dagger was converging with a cloud of divine brilliance.
The resisting defenders noticed that the paladins had attacked, and invariably made way for them, and cheered. They had seen the power of the paladins and knew that these enemies were going to be unlucky.
On the battlefield, the Holy Light Short Sword reappeared, and it easily routed the enemy troops that rushed into the Horn Fort, and rushed all the way to the outside of the city walls, rampage through the dense enemy army, and blood flowed everywhere it passed.
A troll wielded a huge mace to block the path of the Holy Light Short Sword, and the Golden Bolt smiled fiercely, and the axe suddenly shone brightly, as if it had grown a section. The spikes of the holy light carried the enormous inertia of the knight's charge, and instantly pierced the troll's body, and the massive body was pushed into the air, sprinkling blood.
This is their duty as blades, and they must be fearless, break through all who stand in their way, and steer the direction of the blades of light.
The other knights of the Rohan kingdom were also inspired by them, and jumped on their horses and followed them, fighting their enemies.
"Let's go too!" Aragorn and Iomo glanced at each other and laughed, "Well done Golden Bolt, we can't afford to be left behind!"
"Of course, I won't lose to this showy dwarven master. Iomo also smiled, then looked at his sister, "Follow me, Iowen, you haven't been through the battlefield, be careful." β
"Don't worry! The paladin clenched her shield and long sword path tightly, "I won't lose to you either, Hussar Marshal of the Rohan Kingdom!"
"Come, let these evil enemies die! Open the gates!" Hiyud was also a good general, and as the heir of the Rohan and the commander of the Second Hussar Legion, he had to show enough courage in such a battle for the survival of the Rohan.
The four of them charged side by side, quickly slashing their way through the open gate and advancing down the narrow staircase towards the battlefield below.
On this part of the ladder, only four men could engage in battle, and in the case of cavalry, they could only ride at most three side by side. The experienced Aragorn, Iomer, and Shiyud were the first to charge, pushing battlefield recruits Iowen behind them.
This made Iowen very angry, but there was nothing she could do.
Both Aragorn and Iomo were powerful paladins, and Siyud was also a warlord. In front of the three of them, there was no enemy to match, and the cavalry rushing out of the city gate quickly broke through the enemy barrier and rushed into the battlefield, forming another smaller sword formation of holy light.
The two daggers of holy light continued to circle and stir on the battlefield, as if they were in a no-man's land, and soon disrupted the formation of Saruman's army, and the dagger of holy light with Iomo as the sword blade rushed straight towards the enemy's catapult position, and in a circle there, it destroyed these stone-throwing machines that threatened the city wall.
Iowen followed Aragorn, looking very excited and active, swinging her sword vigorously, trying her best to stir up the light, finally realizing her role in the battlefield.
At this moment, the rain gradually became lighter, and the dark clouds in the sky began to dissipate, and the strong sunlight finally broke through the dark clouds and shone on the muddy land.
Gandalf stood on top of the tower, holding his staff aloft as if he had descended from the heavens, while behind him stood three excited priestesses, and Edward's figure was gone.
As if to welcome the arrival of light, a team wearing silver-white armor and holding aloft the banner of demon hunters appeared on a steep slope in the canyon of the Valley of the Holy Helm. Bion and Hardir stood at the front of the group, and a large number of Holy Ranger appeared on either side of the canyon, aiming at the Saruman army at the bottom of the valley with their bows.
In the sky above them, Alan, who was the guide, greeted the sun, spread her huge wings, and let out a burst of chirps that resounded through the heavens and the earth. On its back, Edward held the star aloft and looked at the battlefield below.
Rohan's king, Hiyodon, personally rushed out of the gap in the walls with a large army of hussars, shouting slogans, and joined the battlefield.
Bion waved his hand, and the once powerful white-robed wizard Saruman was tied up and escorted out, and was kicked and half-knelt down by Bion. The current white-robed wizard is disheveled, his white robe is tattered, and his body is also scarred.
His face is obscured by his stray hair, making it impossible to see his expression. But anyone could guess how he was feeling right nowβthe mood of a wizard who had become a prisoner.
"The rebellious wizards have been caught!The lair of evil has been destroyed by us!Warriors, now is the time for us to fight back!" Edward's voice came from the air, "For the peace of Middle-earth! To destroy the root of evil! Kill all of Sauron's minions!
"Kill them all!" roared in excitement from all the righteous camps on the battlefield, the sound echoing through the canyon, inspiring all the warriors who fought for the righteous cause.
The silver arrows of the Holy Ranger on both sides of the canyon were the first to sound the horn of the counterattack, and then the Phi Men forwards in the valley roared in unison, transformed into armored giant bears, and rushed down unstoppably.
In the dilapidated Horn Fortress, all the soldiers rushed out after their Majesty and answered Edward's call to slaughter Saruman's army.
A counterattack to completely wipe out the evil forces in the central and southern parts of Middle-earth has officially begun!
Seeing that the leader Saruman was captured, and the army was encircled, even the most vicious and cruel strong orcs had no idea of resisting.
The first to begin the rout were the Denglanders, who appeared as reinforcements, and their hatred of the Rohanate made it easy for them to be exploited by Saruman to attack the Rohan as part of a large army.
Now seeing that the battle situation is unfavorable, the first to escape are the Denlanders, they don't want to be slaughtered with the orcs, after all, they are also a country in Middle-earth, and they do not completely belong to the evil camp.
Subsequently, the orcs also began to rout, and although they were outnumbered, they lacked the men to command a large army. This makes the orc army lack cohesion, and once there is a rout, it will be difficult to turn back.
The Rohan armies, on the other hand, pursued and killed the enemy who had made them tremble with all their might, without fear of ambushes. Because their base camp has been destroyed, there is no other force to meet them.
The counterattack lasted five days.
Saruman's army fled from the mouth of the valley north of the Helmet, where it split into two groups.
The Denlanders fled to their homes in the northwest, while the orcs fled east, trying to escape to Mordor.
Heyudon did not wipe out the Denglanders, he ordered most of his army to pursue the orcs eastward, and chased them all the way to the Shumu River, before he killed almost all the orcs!
Faced with the pursuit of the Rohan hussars, paladins and holy rangers, most of the orcs who were infantry had no escape, most of them were killed from behind by arrows and spears, and only a few wolf cavalry escaped death.
The corpses of orcs and trolls stretched from the mouth of the Valley of the Holy Helmet along the northern foothills of the Shligen Mountains to the banks of the Shumu River in the northern part of the Ferrian Forest, like a line of death.
"We are victorious! Warriors, rejoice!" said Siyudun, raising the king's sword in his hand and laughing at the river.
The soldiers of the Rohan Kingdom and the small number of people who participated in the pursuit of the people all shouted loudly and cheered with the slogan "Long live our king", and there were many tears of joy during the process.
