Chapter 248 Guess where we are

This night was not peaceful. When night fell, in addition to the constant sound of construction, some rangers went out on horseback to provide high-intensity vigilance around the area.

All the Oaks who tried to get closer to inquire for information were quickly stopped and killed. From time to time, white fireworks could be seen exploding in the air in the distance.

"What is that?" Balin suddenly raised his head.

"bat."

Gandalf squinted his eyes, wondering how he could still see things so far away clearly at night.

"Ranger, it's the rangers shooting at the bats in the sky."

"The white fireworks... It seems that there is no need to worry for the time being. If it is asking for help, the fireworks will be quite conspicuous red."

The citizens were still busy with their own affairs, but Gandalf and Balin were not idle either.

Although the two of them can't help much in the construction, at least one of them is a learned wizard who has traveled in Middle-earth for thousands of years, and the other is an old scholar who has lived for more than two hundred years. They can also serve as guides. A little foreman.

Everything proceeds in an orderly manner.

The sun was rising, and when the dazzling sunlight shone on the earth, a silver-white army appeared at the end of the field of vision from the gray road in the north.

The troops from Roadside Fort arrived.

Standing on the high city wall, Gandalf looked from a distance, feeling a sense of déjà vu.

This army has the demeanor of an elf.

Boom.

The brand new gate opened, and the army entered the city in an orderly manner, arraying themselves neatly on the large open space where no buildings had been built.

"It seems we arrived in time."

At this moment, Falodan was also wearing the same armor. Behind him, in addition to the troops from the roadside fort, there were also some people whose appearance and figure could be said to stand out from the crowd.

That is the homeless instructor who is stationed at the roadside fort for training.

They have serious expressions, are firm and strong, and most of them have a vicissitude of temperament, like weathered rocks. Compared with them, the soldiers in the roadside fort are like young children who have left home for the first time.

It's no wonder that homeless people like to call them little sprouts. Looking at it this way, it does make sense.

"The latest information shows that there are more than 15,000 people on the opposite side, and there are also three Nazgul guards."

Seeing Falodan returning with his army, Gandalf also walked down the city wall to meet him.

Upon hearing the news, Falodan couldn't help but frown, and felt a sense of crisis in his heart.

The army was okay. Although the Riverside Fort had just been built, the city wall was quite strong. Even if it was breached by something outrageous, it could be repaired quickly.

The rangers in the city, the reinforcements from the roadside fort, and the people from the construction team barely amounted to 5,000 people. It can be said that there is no one who cannot fight.

And not only all the soldiers, but also all the soldiers are double-cut warriors, all equipped with bows and arrows, which can be used at both distance and distance.

"It would be okay if our enemies were just Orcs..."

Farodan looked worried.

"But it's not just the Orcs. Even if you don't mention the giant beasts, they also have the Ringwraiths."

Gandalf said: "I can fight two, can you handle the remaining one?"

"sure."

Farodan showed a confident expression and patted his breastplate.

"In the Far East, I defeated the Nazgul."

"Okay, very good."

Gandalf nodded.

Bahrain was not happy.

"Hey, don't forget there is a dwarf here, can't you give me one?"

"Of course you can try."

Gandalf glanced at him and said: "You will stay with me then, and when the Nazgul come, you will jump up and knock him on the head."

"What did you say?"

Balin stared at Gandalf and asked, "Did you just say something insulting in a more tactful way?"

"No, Uncle Balin, I'm just giving you advice."

"That's pretty good advice, Gandalf. I almost want to jump up and try it with you first."

"Oh, don't. As an old man, I can't bear such a big steel axe."

"Then do you think I'm young?"

The two old men began to quarrel.

Farodan, a young homeless man who was only over a hundred years old, couldn't even get in the middle of the conversation. Out of respect for his elders, he could only watch and let the two of them solve the problem themselves.

However, sometimes, doing nothing is also a mistake. The fire that has been lit will not extinguish itself. It will only get bigger and bigger until it burns the theatergoers.

"What do you think, Falodan?"

"Uh, I think..."

Falodan was in a dilemma.

I think we should bring Levi back quickly.

Bard, who was far away in River Valley City, thought so too.

"Can't he wait a little longer?"

Summoning an army from three towns in the river valley area, they headed to the roadside fort on the other side of the mountain range... and the riverside fort, a brand new territory that they had never heard of. This happened so suddenly, without any warning.

Levi suddenly appeared in River Valley City and told him the news, and also gave an urgent order.

"Assemble an army as quickly as possible. Our enemy is an army composed of tens of thousands of Oaks, as well as several Nazgul."

Bud knew the seriousness of this statement.

Tens of thousands of Oaks. This scale reminded him of the Battle of the Five Armies. At that time, there were more than 30,000 Oaks, and the total number of humans, dwarves, and elves on our side was only more than 5,000.

But now, the valley area has more than 5,000 soldiers at its disposal...

"Emergency assembly!"

While quickly putting on his armor, Bard gave instructions to those in charge.

"Except for the necessary defensive forces, all are wearing armor and marching as fast as possible!"

Boom!

The gate was opened, and a large number of soldiers poured into the entrance to the Heavenly Road without even having time to conduct the pre-battle announcement.

In fact, there is no need to preach, just one sentence is enough——

"Fight for the lord."

The Beorn clan living in Carl Town also took the same action as many towns in the river valley. This brave and fighting clan also began to gather combatants and march to the front line.

A large amount of power is gathering along the high sky road towards the west side of the mountain range at an incredible speed.

"What happened?"

The familiar scene reappeared again. Thorin hurriedly climbed onto the city wall of Erebor, looking at the Riverdale City where there were obviously fewer people, and was a little dumbfounded.

Too fast, too fast. When he received the message, the army had disappeared from sight.

This speed of mobilization was simply frightening. As a neighbor that could be seen within sight, Erebor didn't even react before the army was already far away.

"It's Levi."

At this time, Duvalin, who was always quick to move, ran over and reported the news: "Levi issued an emergency order. He summoned all available combat forces to the west side of the mountain range."

"This time it's not like they're going to conquer a certain place, it's more like they're going to support."

"Support? Where's the more specific news?" Thorin asked eagerly.

"I don't know. They were walking too fast. Fili rode on the goat to chase them. It will probably take a while."

Thorin paced back and forth quickly and said: "If we can let Levi defend, the enemy will be at least tens of thousands of Orcs. This is no small matter. We have to gather our troops..."

"But Levi didn't mention this to us." Duvalin reminded from the side.

Thorin spoke slowly: "That means——"

"That means he may be too anxious to mention it to us."

In the palace of the Black Forest, Thranduil's instructions were loud and clear.

In the spacious hall, the king's voice was unusually clear:

"I know very well what kind of person he is. He will never be willing to speak until the most difficult moment, but this does not mean that we should watch our allies go into difficulty step by step."

"Prepare to mobilize. Also - tell me, have their troops been assembled?"

Thranduil asked his deputy.

"My king, they are almost out of the forest."

"What?"
