The royal capital of Minas Tirith!
The majestic white city built on the mountain is extremely majestic. It has indestructible towering stone walls, gates made of mithril, and a seven-story city with a stepped structure. It is the most proud super fortress of the human race on the Middle-earth continent. Unless the earth collapses, otherwise Don't be afraid of any enemy.
Of course, this is just thinking about it, after all, yy is not illegal!
Apart from anything else, the walls of the royal capital cannot withstand the magical black powder created by Saruman alone. It only takes one hammer to dig a crack in the seven-story city, and the royal capital can be captured in half a day.
It's a pity that Saruman offended Gandalf and was exiled. He is still floating around somewhere!
The royal capital was filled with smoke, and the white city walls were scorched black by the flames. The regent Boromir stood at the highest point of the royal capital, overlooking the vast Paliano Plain, with a worried look on his face, and was helpless.
Boromir became the regent. Denethor II died of drinking in the first half of the night, and he inherited the throne in the second half of the night.
Although something strange happened, the generals in the royal capital didn't think much about it. Regent Denese was diligent and honest in his early years, self-willed in his middle age, and greedy for power in his old age. He is becoming more and more confused. Except for the generals who are loyal to him, most of the people are dissatisfied with him. half.
Everyone thinks it would be good to change the leader!
Even the generals who were loyal to Denese didn't think much about this matter. How could my son harm me?
Boromir was brave and resourceful, deeply loved by the soldiers, had a high reputation in the royal capital, and was the first heir, so he easily became the new regent.
"Gandalf, can we hold on until Aragorn returns with reinforcements?" Boromir asked worriedly.
The capital of Gondor is facing an unprecedented crisis. The black phalanxes are arranged neatly on the Paliano Plain. It is about to enter the night. The orcs light torches. In an instant, it seems that the entire plain is burning.
The ferocious arrogance surged into the sky, turning into dark clouds covering the sky, making even the moonlight dim.
Boromir scratched his head in anger. The former regent, his own father, did not think of recruiting reinforcements before the capital was besieged. He waited for death with despair, causing panic among the soldiers and people in the city.
Denethor's will was broken by Sauron, and he had a pessimistic view of the war. He believed that the king's capital would be defeated and all resistance was in vain, and he was ready to drag everyone to death.
Even if there were all kinds of things wrong with me, he, as a son, couldn't say it clearly. He was feeling very uncomfortable with his sighs and sighs. When he looked at the holy white tree behind him, it became even more uncomfortable.
The death of the holy white tree representing the Western royal family seems to indicate that Gondor is at the end of its rope!
"Boromir, during the Battle of Helm's Deep, everyone thought this battle would be lost, but we won and completely annihilated Isengard's army. Now, the walls of the royal capital are ten times stronger than the Horn Keep, so what's the point? Reason for defeat?"
Gandalf was stroking his white beard, as if he was in control. Because he was a mature Maia, it was difficult to guess whether his words were true or false.
"The beacon has been lit. King Théoden and Aragorn made an oath. When they see the signal, they will definitely gather an army and come to support..." At this point, Boromir pursed his lips: "But Aragorn hasn't come back yet. We Wouldn’t it be a good idea to do this?”
King Théoden swore that as long as Aragorn became the king of Gondor and lit the beacon, he would lead an army to fight for the royal family of the West. But at the moment, the Aragonese did not know where they were. The people who lit the beacon were he and his brother Faramir. .
Boromir is new to politics and has not yet developed his face. He feels that it is inappropriate to deceive the allies!
"Hahaha, Boromir, you think too much."
Gandalf smiled and said: "King Théoden found a way out for himself at that time. During the crisis in Rohan, your father did not send troops to support. King Theoden did not say so, and it would be difficult to explain to the people."
"real?"
"Of course. Could it be that I, Gandalf the White, would lie to you?"
Boromir: (?_?)
"Um!?"
"Haha, Gandalf, you will definitely not lie to me. You are not Russell... Haha!" Boromo laughed twice and took advantage of the opportunity to blackmail Russell. He knew that Gandalf liked to hear this.
"Right, that is it!"
…
Dusk has passed and darkness has enveloped the land.
On the Paliano Plains, torches gathered into dragons, and then continued into a sea of fire. Row after row of orcs began to charge towards the royal capital.
The entire Middle-earth continent knows that orcs are most effective at night, and the danger of the upcoming siege can be imagined.
The soldiers in the royal capital grasped their weapons, and the residents also organized themselves and climbed onto the city wall to share the pressure on the defenders. They were scared, but behind them were their wives and children. The orcs were ferocious and they had no way to retreat. They came even though they knew they would die.
Although the mourning soldiers may not necessarily win, they can definitely increase the probability of defending the city!
If Russell were the commander of the orcs, he would never set up an iron barrel formation outside the royal capital. He would leave a side for the defenders to break through.
If there is a way to survive, the soldiers and people of the royal capital will have hope. If there is hope, they will not despair. If they hope to break out and escape, they will not defend the city to the death. Once the hearts of the people are dispersed, they will be in chaos, and the difficulty for the orcs to conquer the city will be greatly reduced.
At that time, the net was opened and they were allowed to break out of the Paliano Plains and lose the solid city wall. These people could torture them as much as they wanted!
Of course, Russell can think of this, and Gandalf can certainly think of it. The bad old man patrols the city wall every day and spreads true lies about the cruelty and bloodthirsty of orcs.
In one word, the city is broken and everyone dies together!
"Hohohoho——"
Before the Orcs' attack had begun, a sharp roar came from the darkness in the distance, and nine soaring huge black shadows streaked across the horizon.
The Witch King of Angmar, the leader of Sauron's Ringwraiths, is covered in black flames and is the most powerful. He is the commander of this battle.
The sharp roar of the monster flying dragon brought with it an aura of fear. All the defenders who heard the threatening sound felt cold all over. Fear struck their hearts, and their hands and feet trembled and they dropped their weapons. Many people covered their heads and howled miserably. Some even lost their fighting spirit and prostrate themselves on the ground, daring not to move.
At this time, war drums were rumbling outside the city, and the orcs took the opportunity to attack the city.
"Minions of Sauron, go back to the darkness——"
Rolling thunder sounded from the highest point in the royal capital, and white light rose into the sky, like a small sun breaking through the darkness and dispersing the magical black clouds that shrouded the sky.
The light enveloped the royal capital, reflected from the white city walls, and shone on the land of Paliano Plains.
The holy light dispelled fear and restored the courage of the defenders to fight. The orc army below was stunned, wailing all over the ground, and countless soldiers covered their eyes and rolled on the ground.
…
On the Anduin River, the current was turbulent, and 50 sailing ships were carried by the waves at high speed.
"Aragorn, how long until we reach the royal capital?" Russell asked.
"According to the current speed, if there are no accidents, we should arrive tomorrow morning..."
