All People's Abyss: My skills are infinitely enhanced

Chapter 566: Allied Invitation

Théoden is the seventeenth King of Rohan and has ruled the kingdom for nearly forty years.

However, because Isengard was adjacent to Rohan, Saruman also arranged a treacherous minister, Grima, to be by his side, and relied on Saruman's witchcraft to complete the corruption of Theoden.

The reason why the defense of the Rohan Gap is relatively weak is actually because the king was deceived and even manipulated.

However, Rohan and Gondor have an alliance, and Rohan was once a vassal state of Gondor.

After Boromir revealed his identity and the Horn of Gondor, Grima was unable to stop him.

They could only arrange for Theoden, who looked a little dull, to meet with them.

In the not-so-glorious palace, although Theoden was wearing a crown, he looked quite haggard.

His eyes were lifeless, like a dying old man.

His mouth opened and closed, but almost no sound could be heard.

However, beside him, there was a minister dressed in black, with a treacherous look on his face, who was listening attentively, nodding his head repeatedly, and then looked up at the crowd and said, "Translate."
"Welcome to Rohan, but your Majesty is not feeling well. What are you doing here?"

In fact, Tao Yu and Gandalf both clearly felt that something was wrong with King Theoden. They looked at each other, but did not expose him immediately.

The other party's physical condition is very bad, and doing anything rashly is likely to cause backlash.

"The thing is, Rohan Gap was attacked before..."

Gandalf had many friends, and he also knew Théoden. He gave a brief explanation, and then took out a handwritten letter from Prince Théodred and presented it to the king.

"…So this time we want to borrow some of Rohan's troops."

Gandalf was already prepared. If the other party refused, he would quickly subdue the guy closest to the king to prevent him from threatening King Theoden.

Then find a way to do it step by step.

"Since it is a letter written by the prince himself, we must believe it. Let Éomer lead 7,500 of our Rohan warriors to follow you."

However, to the surprise of Tao Yu and Gandalf, Grima actually translated it normally and agreed directly after listening to what Theoden whispered.

And he arranged for King Théoden's nephew, Eomer, the military force of the Kingdom of Rohan, to lead a team to accompany him.

This sincerity is not lacking!

Even Gandalf was a little stunned for a moment, wondering whether he should take action again.

Only Tao Yu's eyes lit up slightly.

He knew that Theoden was controlled by Saruman. The phenomenon before him could only mean that Saruman, who had returned to Isengard, had chosen to agree!
"After seeing me lead the charge of the Rohan cavalry, he was willing to hand over 7500 cavalry regiments. This..., he wants to use me to fight against Sauron?"

Tao Yu also understood Saruman's change in mentality at this time.

Tao Yu had no idea what he wanted to do by cooperating with the thief to create the flood and glacier.

But now with more known information, it can be confirmed that he chose to push himself to the stage.

"I'm not afraid of a one-on-one fight, so I don't mind doing this. As long as Gandalf and the Elf Lady are willing to stand by my side, I have a high chance of winning."

Tao Yu doesn't mind being used, but it's hard to say who is using whom.

And now this King Theoden...

Tao Yu completed the spiritual transmission to Gandalf.

"Mr. Gandalf, King Theoden is probably being controlled by someone. If we act rashly, we might endanger his safety."

Tao Yu's words made Gandalf nod slightly.

"But if we continue to let it go, I'm afraid it will be dangerous. If Éomer leads the main force and leaves with us, Rohan will probably be attacked again."

"So we go back to the Gap of Rohan and counterattack Isengard first, kill those threats directly, or at least inflict heavy damage on those monsters."

Tao Yu's words made Gandalf slightly stunned.

But after thinking about it carefully, even though it means going back the same way, it is indeed possible!
Their request is to take the Rohan cavalry to Gondor and prepare to attack the Black Gate. But we can go back and deal with the threat behind us first, which is also fine.

When a general is away from home, he may not obey the orders of the king...

……

Because Theoden was in poor health, after agreeing to the request to borrow troops, he made an excuse to go back and rest.

He only gave Éomer to them.

Éomer was dressed in armor, looking strong and powerful, with an air of toughness.

He is considered the most capable fighter in Rohan and also the most capable commander.

He is also the one who has been defending the capital and holding Grima back.

It is precisely because of his constraints here and the large army under his command that Rohan is currently able to maintain overall stability even though the king is confused.

Éomer, who came before the crowd at this time, actually looked a little unhappy.

He didn't know what would happen here after he was sent away from the capital on an excuse.

However, facing the Fellowship of the Ring who came to borrow troops and the letter from the prince, he could not put on an unpleasant face.

He just bowed slightly to Gandalf as a sign of courtesy.

"General Éomer, the plan has changed. We will first fight our way back to the Ferry of the Falling Khan, form an alliance with Prince Théodred, and then counterattack Isengard."

Tao Yu spoke to Éomer straight to the point.

This made him stunned.

"Aren't you going to Gondor?"

"We just suffered an attack from behind. General, you don't want those Dunlendings to invade Rohan, right?"

Tao Yu used a little instigation.

Éomer's blood boiled instantly.

No, absolutely not!
"I think you are right. Since I have lent you soldiers, you can make arrangements for whatever you want to do. I am only responsible for fighting."

Éomer is not a conservative person, he is very flexible.

"Also, I hope the general can give me some of the command of the team."

Tao Yu did not say that he would take over all the command rights.

Just like what happened with Prince Theoded before.

Rohan's army is not the same as the Fremen who surrendered with the prophet Paul.

They have their own ideas and allegiances.

Therefore, the best they can do is rely on the commander's orders to temporarily gain a certain degree of control.

However, it is enough for blessing. After all, it is just an ordinary legion, and Tao Yu is not prepared to borrow these mundane powers.

The efficiency is too low, both in terms of their individual strength and their level of trust and tacit understanding in themselves.

Even if the number is large, it is of no use.

It would be even better to directly borrow the blessing of the Alien, not to mention high-cost cards such as the Firelord and the Dreadlord.

But right now Saruman had some misunderstandings about him, and this level was just right.

Chop off Saruman's minions first.

If he defected, we would bring Gandalf with us to attack him. If he continued to hide, we would defeat the orcs and slowly digest them while heading to Gondor to counterattack the Dark Land...
