The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth

"Your Highness, the king invites you!" A dwarf gently knocked on the door. After Roland asked him to come in, he explained his purpose.

"Thorin is looking for me?" Roland was stunned, and then realized that it should be about post-war recovery and various alliance matters. You must know that although the unlucky father and son Azog and Bolg were solved, the Orcs in the north The kingdom still exists, and Dol Guldur still has Orcs entrenched in it... The most outrageous thing is that the Chariot People who now live in the Rune area are all the lackeys of Mordor...

…

"Everyone! Morning!" Roland picked up the wine glass on the side and raised it to signal to everyone.

"King Roland! Good morning!" Thranduil smiled kindly.

"Oh! Roland! My brother!" Thorin came up and gave a bear hug to express his enthusiasm.

"Good morning, Your Excellency." Eovia raised a glass of juice in greeting.

"I'm so glad I can see you alive!" Bai Yi joked as he buttered the bread on his hand.

"Hey! Come here, buddy!" Vervay showed no elegance like an elf, and he warmly invited Roland to dine with him like a common citizen.

"Thank you for your assistance. The heroic deeds of you and your soldiers have changed the future of the north!" Bud praised sincerely.

"Everyone is here! By the way, where is Dyne? How could the King of Iron Hills not be present at such a grand occasion?" Roland searched around but could not find Dyne.

"Oh! Damn it! Didn't anyone pull me up? I'm a wounded person! Didn't you see Roland looking for me?" Dine's muttered voice came from under the table next to Bard.

"Oh! Sorry! Dine, you are really too heavy!" Bard picked up Dine easily, but Dine's weight was obviously beyond Bard's imagination, and the dwarf's stocky body density was simply outrageous.

"Hahaha! Bard, you are a real man!" Dain patted Bard on the shoulder.

"Oh! King of the Iron Hills, Dyne? Hello!" Roland carefully observed the dwarf king in front of him. This dwarf king, who was more accomplished, smart and skillful than Thorin in history, had a red beard and a rough face. His stocky and short limbs contain unparalleled explosive power, and he seems to be the strongest professional among the dwarves at this stage. Thinking about it, the dwarves are quite pitiful. Their state of no fixed abode has led to their lack of cultivation resources.

"Hello, King Raglan, thank you for helping us in our most critical moment. You will always be a friend of the dwarves!" Dain said sincerely.

"It's my honor." Roland nodded in greeting. I have to say that Dain is worthy of being the king who can rule the Lonely Mountain after Thorin and make it prosperous. He speaks so nicely. For the stubborn and arrogant dwarf, he is simply a king. rare.

"Okay, let's get down to business!" Thorin clapped his hands to attract the attention of the kings.

"Although the darkness has subsided, they have not been completely defeated. The Orc Kingdom in Gundabad Mountain, the Orc Tribe in the Misty Mountains, and the remnants of Azog entrenched in Dol Guldur Fortress are all our fatal hidden dangers!"

Thorin stood up, looked around at everyone's expressions, and then continued: "I want to form a coalition! Completely eliminate these hidden dangers!"

"Sure enough..." Roland palmed his face inwardly. The dwarf's habit of overachieving was clearly reflected in Thorin. He hadn't even healed the wound yet, so he wanted to fight back?

"We have the powerful knights of the Kingdom of Raglan! The most fearless warriors of the dwarves! The deadliest rangers and archers of the elves! We even have dragon knights and real dragon knights! We are fully capable of defeating them! For our descendants Create a pure land that will not be invaded by darkness!" Thorin clenched his fists and said passionately.

"Sorry... the elves of Singri will not participate in the following battle." Iovia stood up and owed her apology.

"Our tribe is sparse, and the sacrifice of nearly 400 people this time is considered to be a serious injury. Knight Peter Gro's dragon was also seriously injured. He was hit many times by the dragon-hunting crossbow. He needs to cultivate well. ." Eovia explained that he was no longer willing to sacrifice the lives of his people for those illusory threats.

"The Woodland Kingdom also suffered a lot of casualties. During the final decisive battle, the rangers of the Woodland Kingdom and the Swift Infantry fought together on the front line. We have abided by the covenant!" Thranduy said calmly, and there was something to say about the Woodland Kingdom this time. The rangers had indeed suffered heavy casualties. The number of casualties of more than a thousand people had already made Thranduil's heart feel like it was being rubbed against the washboard.

"Why are you looking at me? You don't know what's going on in the Kingdom of Akvia? The soldiers in Los Sanil City are almost empty!" Bai Yi rolled his eyes. As one of the main battlefields, Los Sanil City, They made huge sacrifices.

Finally, everyone's eyes fell on Roland...

"Give up. I don't have the strength to organize another battle. There are 1,500 people in the Rapids Legion. How many parts are still intact? Don't you tell me to use the Knights to attack the city?" Roland shrugged. Shoulder, there really aren't many infantry under his command, and the most important thing is that Roland doesn't seem to have any powerful siege units. Rapid infantry, heavy cavalry and knights are suitable for plain battles, and archers and rangers are suitable for jungle battles. The Wenian heavy swordsmen and Lagrand City guards are suitable for city defense. As for recruiting light infantry... forget about that. Although they have become brave and skilled after training, their upper limit is not high, so Roland If we really want to attack the city, it's really hard to say whether we will win or lose.

"This..." Thorin looked at everyone blankly. He couldn't understand why no one wanted such a good opportunity to end the orcs? Beside him, Bud and Dyne shook their heads gently.

"My suggestion is that everyone go back to their homes, find their own mothers, and help each other with offense and defense. After fighting for so long, it's time to recuperate. Now I don't even have enough food for my people to eat until the autumn harvest." Roland sighed. Take a breath.

"Yes, we can't fight any more. I don't know if the orcs will be destroyed if we continue to fight, but the city of Los Saint Neil will really be gone." Bai Yi said sadly, thinking about the dead tribesmen.

"I can't sacrifice the lives of my people to counterattack the orcs. That would be too unfair to them." Eovia looked at Thorin.

"The Woodland Kingdom also needs cultivation. Our outposts were infiltrated by orcs, and many outposts were uprooted. It will take a long time to re-monitor the borders of the Woodland Kingdom." Thranduil expressed his difficulties.

"Thorin... you also need to take a rest. The casualties in River Valley State and Iron Qiuling are not small, and Irube has also paid the price. You should take back the wandering tribesmen to rest and recuperate, instead of urgently counterattacking the orcs!" Roland advised! road.

"My brother Thorin! I know you are angry! You hate orcs! But Roland and everyone are right. We can't afford to fight. We also need to cultivate. Behind the victory is the cry of our people. We can't Go ahead and sacrifice your clansmen again!" Dain looked at Thorin sincerely.

"...Let's form an alliance, we need each other..." Thorin said nothing more, but it was obvious that he was convinced by everyone.

"Bata! Bahta!" As the seals symbolizing rights fell one by one, the Gushan Alliance was officially established on this day.
