People eat horses and chew all kinds of baggage, and of course the speed is not much faster.

Sauron also sent small groups of cavalry to begin harassing the periphery, affecting the speed at which the army could be assembled so that he could arrange the orc legions.

The dark tower of the Black Gate, the Eye of Sauron, rolls day and night......

"My lord, the elves have arrived in Gondor, and the dwarves are still coming."

"Do you want to send a part of the legions to block the attack, so that they can't form an alliance?"

Under the huge dark tower, on the throne made of black iron, a man in black armor was contemplating......

"My Lord ......"

"Okay, I got it."

"Don't worry about the dwarves for now, the number of orcs is far from enough in such a hurry."

"Hammer!"

"The subordinates are here!"

Sauron tapped the armrest of the Black Throne and looked at the army in the distance.

"Secretly inform Saruman that no matter what, bring back Caleblimbo's soul and it's time to offer his loyalty!"

"Yes!"

After the hammer left, the entire Dark Tower fell silent again.

With a wave of his hand, the image projected by the giant eye appeared out of thin air.

Sauron repeatedly looked at the picture of Ash and his party killing the black hand.

"Where the hell did you come from......"

……

In the Great Tent of the Chinese Army of the United Legion, the belated dwarven leader Dain II was sipping rice wine, after the battle of the five armies, due to the death of Thorin Oak Shield's wounds, Dain II took over the title of dwarven leader.

It has to be mentioned that Dain II's talent is no less than that of Thorin Oak Shield, he distributed the treasure fairly, did not encounter disputes between elves and humans again, but established a true friendship, this crusade against Sauron, can send troops in time, and his sincerity can also be seen.

"You came this time, and it went so smoothly?" Bard asks his best friend.

"Yes, the road is calm, there are no wolves and no orcs."

After drinking a pot of rice wine, Dain II replied directly, ignoring the water stains on his beard.

Bard touched his chin and turned to Gandalf, "Your Excellency, what do you think?" ”

Gandalf didn't stop putting his pipe in his hand until he lit it and took a beautiful puff before answering Bud.

"It is estimated that Sauron's forces are also overstretched, so he can't divide his men to stop the dwarven army."

Eldron and Thranduy nodded their heads in agreement with Gandalf's claim.

Before, during the battle of the Five Armies, Sauron's sharp energy had already been rubbed hard, and it was only a long time later, and it was impossible to recruit too many soldiers at all.

"So, let's start with the battle plan."

Bard's soldiers brought maps and spread them out on the long table, and everyone gathered around.

Bard pointed to the Black Gate and said, "The two thousand soldiers I lead will attack the consuls of Gondor head-on. ”

"As for the side support, who do you see coming?"

Thranduy stretched out his hand and pointed to the right side of the map, "We only brought a thousand spearmen and five hundred meters of archers this time, and the flank support is still relatively safe." ”

"We only have five hundred Iron Mound Dwarves, and three hundred Forged Dwarves, so we can craft siege machines on the spot." Dain II rubbed his nose and continued, "As for the five hundred Iron Hill Dwarves, they can join Bard and face the enemy head-on. ”

Seeing that everyone was beginning to assign tasks that suited him, Eldron tapped the gold-poured wine glass with his spoon.

"The five hundred dwarves were joined on the right flank and supported by the archers, while the spearmen met the enemy head-on."

"In this way, with the combat power of the dwarves, even if the archers are attacked by the wolves, they can effectively defend themselves."

"We only have a hundred people in the valley, but all of them are magicians, and they will be arranged to your army for fire support."

"Finally, we're missing a surprise team."

"Infiltrate the Black Gate and find out the enemy's arrangement and Sauron's location!"

Eldron is worthy of being an old guy who has lived for thousands of years, and he has a lot of experience, and in a few words, he reasonably allocates the troops.

However, the candidates for the surprise attack team made him a little embarrassed......

In fact, he is more optimistic about the Ash Squad, after all, it is an outsider, and his ability is also very peculiar, so he should be caught off guard by Sauron.

But Ash is the object that needs to be protected, if he can't participate, will the others follow the instructions?

Eventually, Elrond gave up on the idea......

The army began to move in order, and the ashes were reduced to nothing.

It was too boring to sleep every day, so he began to wander around, only to see another white-bearded old man coming.

The horse-rejecting stakes of the Chinese army camp were removed by the soldiers, and an old man in a white robe rode a white horse and slowly stepped into the camp.

Although Ash didn't know his name, even Eldron came out to greet him, and his status can be imagined.

When the old man dismounted, he handed the reins to the soldiers beside him, first saluted Eldron, and then put his arms around Gandalf, and the two old men laughed.

The people entered the tent, and in a short time a herald came out of the herald, looking for the ashes and asking him to take matters into account.

When Ash lifted the curtain of the tent, he found that everyone was staring at him......

Ash didn't have stage fright, and found an empty seat to do it.

"Summoned me in a hurry, is there anything wrong?"

Ash swept around and found Gandalf staring at the ground, as if he didn't dare to make eye contact with him.

The old man who had just arrived stood up and walked over to Ash, "You're Celebrimbau's possession?" ”

"It's me, what's wrong?"

"I'm Saruman, a white-robed wizard, and now I need you to leave this place with me and go to the rear to take care of it!"

？？？

"What did you say?"

Ash didn't seem to believe his ears, who is Saruman, even if he arranges his own itinerary, he still has to lock himself up!

Instead of answering Ash's inquiry, Saruman waved his hand and asked a group of soldiers to be arranged outside the tent to prepare to leave with Ash in a moment.

The atmosphere of the big tent became more solemn, and the ashes stood up, and they didn't have to stay here, the four of them hid in the mountains, and it was just a little harder.

Without greeting anyone, Ash walked straight out of the tent, only to be stopped by Saruman.

"What do you mean?"

Ash is really a little angry this time!

"I advise you not to be impulsive, this is the camp of the coalition army, and there is no good fruit to eat in the resistance!"

Saruman's disgusting voice rang out from the side, and Ash didn't even look at him, asking the others in the room directly.

"Is this a decision that you all agreed unanimously?"

"Ahem, Mr. Ash, don't get excited, Saruman also has good intentions."

"This is the front line, and if anything goes wrong, it will be lost."

"And Saruman means to protect Mr. Ash, not to imprison."

As the leader of the Terrans, Bard can only come out to ease the atmosphere.

"Hmph, no need, we can protect ourselves, so we won't bother you!"

"And don't force me to make a move, that's the real catastrophe!"
