The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth

Chapter 14 The Battle of the Dark Forest

Not to mention that Thorin and his party were hunted down and finally escaped under the giant eagle waved by Gandalf, let us turn our attention to the miserable Roland child.

"Oh my god, where are there so many goblins?" Kaslo looked at the goblins coming from behind in surprise.

The corner of Roland's mouth twitched. If he didn't have a brain, it seemed that Mr. Gandalf killed a fat boy in the Goblin town in the Misty Mountains. He seemed to call him the Goblin King or something...

"Damn it! Damn Thorin! You all ran away and brought disaster to me!" Roland realized that he was blocking the gun for Thorin and his group.

"Retreat, retreat! The wind is blowing!" Roland said quickly. It was not that he had not thought about fighting back, but he felt that there was no benefit in turning around and fighting. If he lost, he would lose face, and if he won, he would lose face (the casualties among his men would definitely not be high). (small), there is really no need to engage in loss-making trading.

So there was such a spectacular scene at the eastern foot of the Misty Mountains. About four hundred heavily armed elite humans were running around in the woods and bushes. Behind them were thousands of weak goblins with thin arms and thin legs, howling like ghosts. Chasing all the way, the two sides worked hard to launch a unique marathon competition.

"Return!" Kaslo yelled suddenly.

While he was at the rear, he found that some strong goblins had almost touched the slowest running infantry. Immediately under his order, the knights and Battanian archers turned around on their horses and fired their bows. , the knights fired the first rain of arrows, but only a dozen or so goblins were shot down. The hit rate made Roland facepalm. The Battanian archer who came down was very proud of Roland. Hundreds of sharp arrows left the string. Suddenly, the goblin forward seemed to have been chewed by something. A group of goblins lay on the ground. If you look closely, you will find that they are almost They were all shot in the throat or heart.

"Okay! Sure enough, he is a knight who specializes in shooting!" Roland admired in his heart, what the hell! What a knight! He was so confused by the heavy armor of the Battanian shooters that Roland blushed, well, it's not my fault! I can only blame them for being too confusing.

"Sir! The infantry can't keep up!" Kaslan suddenly shouted.

"What?" After hearing this, Roland took a closer look. Sure enough, the Swift Infantry were walking hard and panting like cattle. Seeing their sweat-soaked appearance, Roland's heart sank.

"We can't go on like this!" Roland thought to himself.

"The rear army turns to the front army! The whole army forms an array!" Roland suddenly shouted.

Renault's eyes widened. What's going on? Is your lord crazy? Planning to die? Except for Kaslo riding the dragon, everyone present estimated that only Reno himself would survive when he really turned around to fight.

Of course Roland is not crazy. You must know that it was not just the rapid infantry who lost their strength in the long-distance chase. The goblins who were walking with their short legs were also exhausted. As expected, the "big wave" chasing behind them had become After crossing the "stream", a small wave of goblins were running towards me in the distance.

have to! These stupid kids didn't even care about the lineup in order to chase people, and simply scattered into small groups of chasing groups.

"The tactic of adding fuel is good, adding fuel is good, I like adding fuel the most!" Roland laughed evilly.

"Rapid Charge Formation! Form an formation!" Roland shouted.

Then... the Swift Current Infantry was at a loss... Roland slapped his head and was speechless. God's system only gave 200 people. The lowest formation of the Swift Current Infantry requires 300 people to form. Others don't know, but Roland knows. The rapid military formation of 30 people in a row and 10 people in a row is very awesome. You must know that 10 such military formations can knock a hundred-man knights to the ground. You must know that they are regular knights! Especially in this world, professionals are not everywhere. Professionals are still relatively rare.

"100 people in a row! 2 people in a row! Crush up!" Roland could only give detailed instructions.

After hearing the order, the rushing infantry quickly smashed their large shields into the ground. The first row of rushing infantry put their rifles flat and leaned on the shield wall. The second row of infantry also did the same as the first row. The infantrymen generally smashed their shields into the ground, but they tilted their shields 30° to the left to leave a gap of arm's length. They leaned their muskets against their shields and pulled out the maces from their waists.

"Ba Gong is responsible for covering and shooting! Renault, lead the knights to find an opportunity to attack them!" Roland said seriously.

"Okay, sir!" Renault led the knights away.

"We should be in the dark forest now." Roland asked Kaslo.

Castro took out the detailed map given by Elrond and compared it for a long time: "Sir, we should be at the edge of the Dark Forest now."

"Yeah." Roland responded.

"Qiang!" Roland drew his dragon-slaying sword and urged his horse to come to the front of the formation.

"Soldiers! Brothers! We can't run anymore! After losing our strength, we are just lambs to be slaughtered! So we can only fight with our last breath! I ask you to stand firm with me! Tell the enemy! The glory of Raglan has never disappeared! The empire has never disappeared! The soldiers are still fighting! Are you willing?" Roland shouted.

"For the glory of the empire! Long live the empire!" Everyone shouted in unison.

"Kill!" The 5-meter-long horse-fighting spear stabbed horizontally, and the Goblins who rushed towards him were skewered with candied haws. Seeing the Goblins behind rushing towards them, the heavy touch of the spear in their hands forced the first row of Goblins to rush forward. The flow infantry decisively gave up the spears in their hands and picked up the maces on their waists. The rapid flow infantry in the second row behind them immediately leveled their spears.

"Bang!" There was an explosion, and a rushing infantry waved the mace in his hand and opened a goblin that rushed in.

"Rapid fire!" Kaslo shouted quickly when he saw more and more goblins coming up and starting to touch the flanks of the infantry.

"Duh duh duh!" The archers of Batania quickly gave up their precise shooting and quickly poured out the arrows in their quivers at the fastest shooting speed. After a while, a quiver of 50 quivers was filled. Empty, Batania's shooters were already grinning and rubbing their cramped arms.

The effect is obvious. What is the concept of 5,000 fine iron arrows? Just look at the group of twitching goblins in front. Roland's visual inspection revealed that there were at least several hundred goblins merging with the earth amid the rain of arrows.

The rushing infantrymen who were wielding maces suddenly felt that their eyes were empty, and then they realized that the front was already littered with corpses. The goblins who died under the rain of arrows were better, but the corpses that fell in front of the rushing infantry were already piled up. It turned into a hill, and the ones at the front were either dozens of holes all over the body or objects of unknown shapes that had been smashed by hammer heads.

The first row of rushing infantry quickly took out their rifles from the pile of corpses and stood in a row again, forming a shield wall.

"Woo~woo!" A low horn sounded, and the knights led by Renault poured down on the horizon. The goblins caught in the middle became a mess and fled in all directions.

"All charge!" Seeing that the time was right, Roland asked the entire army to charge.

The rushing infantry pulled up their shields, set up their spears, lined up in a row, and strode forward. The Battanian archers riding horses behind them actually put away their long bows and took off the one-meter-long mithril on their backs with their backhands. Armor-breaking hammer...

"What the hell! Whoever says they are shooters in the future, I will fight with them!" Roland's eyes twitched.

"Is this a battle?" Roland asked.

"Let's just say... at least there are nearly two thousand goblins lying here... But, can things like goblins be counted as achievements?" Reynold flattered Roland with a dark face.

"Well, at least the number of people is over!" Roland waved his hand, as if I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen.

"Let's go! It's time to go to the final battlefield..." Roland looked into the distance and sighed. What should come will eventually come. He doesn't know if the outcome of this battle will still be as he knows...

"Congratulations to the host for completing an outstanding battle! The casualty ratio between the enemy and us is 2457:0. Reward 100 rapid infantrymen."

"System yyds! Well done!" Roland couldn't help but feel excited as he looked at the reward given by the system. It was exactly the troops he lacked most now.

"The whole army listens to the order! Target: Lonely Mountain! Let's go!" Roland said with high spirits as he looked at the 100 rapid infantrymen coming to support from a distance.
