the end of the heavens

300 tree men and Rohan cavalry formed an alliance to form a mighty army to face their common enemy - Saruman!

The exchange of offense and defense, and the rapid change of the situation, greatly boosted the morale of the army. More than 2000 cavalry wanted to enter Isinger now and fight Saruman to the death.

"Gandalf, why do you look so ugly?" Russell asked suspiciously. Gandalf's confidant, Saruman, was about to die.

Gandalf was depressed, because the script was deleted and changed by the actors privately, which caused the Advent of the King that he had planned for many years to fail to be staged. Obviously, he even prepared the handsome lines.

But he is a mature Maya, and he will not tell Russell that he is in a bad mood because he failed to pretend, and coughed lightly: "Saruman fell into the darkness, and today he tasted the bad results. The wicked have evil rewards, so it is not worthy of pity. But I Thinking of how close we were as brothers to him, but today we are confronted with swords and swords, I feel very uncomfortable."

Russell was expressionless: "You two have such a good relationship, so for the last knife, should you stab it or should I stab it?"

"I stab!"

Gandalf blurted out, and when the words fell, he realized that he had expressed his intentions too quickly. Facing Russell's playful expression, he said solemnly: "The era of white robes must be ended by white robes. This is God's will. Even if I don't want to, I will Responsibilities and obligations must be fulfilled.”

It's better to say than to sing!

Russell rolled his eyes: "But I heard that Saruman is very powerful, and you have never taken advantage of fighting against him."

These words are not to flatter Saruman, but that he is really powerful. In terms of magical attainments, he shakes the sky with his own power, and rolls up thunder and blizzards out of thin air.

In addition, Saruman is also a erudite and wise man who has studied a wide range of things and knows a little about everything.

Unlike Gandalf, who is away from home and relying on friends, he likes to squat at home and do some heresy, but he is still very successful.

In terms of biology, he created a new race of strong orcs, which were born specifically for war, and were even stronger than the army under Sauron's command.

In terms of chemistry, the magic version of high explosives has been extracted, that is, the output is not high, and the development has not been deepened just now.Otherwise, with this technology, he could rule the world.

It can be seen from this that if Saruman is given more time to manage his forces, his achievements will definitely surpass that of Demon King Sauron.

"False! At that time we were like-minded companions, so naturally we had to let him do everything."

"Really?"

"real!"

"Okay, since you're so confident, I'll just watch the show later."

"Uh, you can't say that..." Gandalf frowned, looked at Russell seriously, and taught him his philosophy of life across the Middle-earth continent: "Saruman is willing to degenerate, persecuting many races for his own selfish desires, this kind of evil Fanatic, there is no need to talk to him about morality, let's go together."

Russell: "..."

……

The army moved until the afternoon, and the Essinger Fortress was in sight, and the 60-meter-high black minaret was the first to come into view.

Orthanc Tower!

The whole tower is integrated, and the overall structure has no gaps, and it seems to be born naturally from top to bottom.The fine magic runes outline the gorgeous lines, reflecting the colorful brilliance from time to time under the sunlight.

A miraculous black tower, one east and one west echoes the Eye of Sauron in Balad-Doo. Although it is not as majestic as the Demon Lord Sauron, it is also one of the best symbols in Middle-Earth, representing the authority of the white robe Saruman.

"Tsk tsk, this is the treatment that white robes deserve. Look at other people's houses, and then look at some bad old man sleeping in a tent..." Russell fanned the flames.

"Hmph, it's just something outside of me!"

Gandalf was envious, but he didn't say that a mature Maiya should be frugal and avoid extravagance.

Entering a mansion in another courtyard, wearing gold and silver, leaving a carriage, and tens of thousands of younger brothers waving flags and cheering are all evil ways that corrupt people's hearts. It is not advisable, not advisable!

Most importantly, big leaders don't like it!

Chapter 388 No Art of War

Essinger!

The fortress defending the Aisin River uses the mountain as a natural barrier on one side, and erects high walls on the other three sides for defense.

Strictly speaking, Isengard is a fortress under the jurisdiction of Gondor, but Saruman begged it from the regent, and it has since become a symbol of his identity.

As long as Isinger is mentioned, everyone in Middle-earth will immediately think of Saruman the white robe.As the head of the Five Witches, his reputation was pushed to the peak, crushing the other four combined by Gandalf.

"Nursed by the Aisin River, there are a lot of trees and grassland here, and it is a green and comfortable home, but Saruman destroyed them, and many people died because of it..."

Treebeard showed sadness. The tree people once believed in the white robe Saruman, but they were brutally persecuted. Their bodies were cut off and ignited, turning into raging flames forging swords and armor.

Essinger in front of him fits the description of Treebeard, the lush green has become a thing of the past, it is a mess, and the pits left by the uprooted giant trees can be seen everywhere.

The devastated scene seems to be an ugly scar in the middle of the mountains. Saruman's violent soldiers can clearly see the damage to the environment.

"Ho Ho Ho—"

When everyone came to the gate of the fortress, what greeted them was the corpses of orc deserters all over the ground. Hundreds of wolf cavalry drank blood from their knives and roared at the army.

The half-orcs stationed in Essinger brandished their swords to demonstrate, and the wargs under their crotch were restless, walking back and forth in place, their eyes flickering fiercely, stimulated by the smell of blood, and became extremely violent.

Unwilling to surrender, Saruman wants to fight one last time!

The Rohan cavalry drew their swords and raised their spears to charge. Gandalf stopped them and said to Theoden: "Isengard can only outsmart, not attack by force. Too much blood was shed in the Battle of Helm's Deep, and we cannot attack." Let the soldiers continue to sacrifice."

Theoden originally wanted to say that not many defenders of the Horn Fort died, and that the soldiers and horses of Rohan were still strong, but Gandalf said that they could be outsmarted, so it is better to outsmart them.

"How to outsmart?"

"I have arranged for Treebeard's tribe to go to Maxidras Peak. We just need to wait quietly. At that time, the flood will submerge Isengard, defeat Saruman's last army, and then the Rohan army will reap the victory." Gandalf Zhi Zhu held her hand, and stroked her white beard with a smile.

Essinger Fortress is easy to defend and difficult to attack, at least for humans, but its weakness is also extremely fatal. Gandalf planned it ten years ago... Ahem, Gandalf was thinking hard on the way when he came, and he had an idea A move came up with a plan to flood the fortress.

"Gandalf is also a mage. Saruman is far behind you in leading an army in battle. He only uses numbers to suppress, without the artistic beauty of war." Theoden clapped his hands in praise after hearing Gandalf's narration.

"Hehe, King Theoden is serious. I'm just a little quick-witted. It's far worse than your cavalry king's ability to lead an army." Gandalf stroked his beard more vigorously, and this was the script he wanted.

"Where is it, you are the best!"

"Humbled!"

"Everyone is amazing, hahaha——"

"Hahaha----"

The two bad old men bragged about each other for business, and they lost their faces. Russell felt extremely contemptuous.Saruman only uses numbers to suppress and has no sense of artistic beauty in war. Is this a human word?

Generals who are good at leading and fighting all know that it is king to overwhelm the number of people, and it is the worst strategy to use tricks and tricks to defeat the strong with the weak.

Han Xin ordered troops, the more the better, the way to victory in the hearts of top generals is very simple, that is, more people!

Russell knew in his heart that the two bad old men understood this truth, but who made Saruman an enemy now, it was impossible to flatter him, and he could only be criticized as a brain-dead flatterer.
