[Hobbit+HP] The truth of elves
Chapter 18 His Trust
The elven-human alliance outside the city gate did not have cavalry, so it was inevitable that Thranduil, who was the only one with a mount, would rush back first.
It's just that the elves guarding the city discovered the Elf King, which means that the half-orcs can also see it.
While Lucius was observing the situation, the half-orcs who had flocked to the square at the North City Gate turned their heads away, and all their arrows pointed directly at the city gate.
In the era of cold weapons, all long-range attacks are the most difficult to resist.
"The archers are ready, kill the orc archers, and the others stand still!" Lucius immediately held Anis who was about to rush out, and the order came out like flowing water, "All baits are concealed, and the sword and shield clear the alley , on standby. Untargeted archers, free to choose a target, one round of shooting."
"Why only one round, Your Majesty..."
The moment Annis was pulled by Lucius, his face was full of anger, but in the next second, his anger lost its target.
Lucius jumped directly from the opened wall to the nearby roof, and at the same time, Thranduil's blond hair also appeared in the opening of the city gate.
The sword flashed in his hand.
The stag lowered its head, and a pair of big horns aimed ahead.Before the four half-orcs could struggle, they were beheaded by Thranduil.
call out--
Deling's elf archers were only slightly faster than the half-orcs. Although their accuracy caused all the half-orc archers to be hit, three of the enemy's arrows were still successfully shot, straight towards the stag's body. Shoot forward.
"Armor protection!"
Lucius had only time to cast a protective spell in the direction Thranduil had come from as Lucius tumbled to the roof.
The white light of the spell in the daytime was almost impossible to catch. Before Lucius could confirm whether his spell was working, he heard Annis yelling at him: "Low your head!"
Bending down in embarrassment, a feathered arrow almost flew past Lucius' scalp.
The appearance of Thranduil meant that not only the armies of humans and elves would flood into the city gates, but also a large number of orcs who followed them.
Facing the three feathered arrows coming towards him, Thranduil had no time to dodge.
However, a white light flashed, as if Lucius was using the invisibility spell all around him, and the two arrows that were rushing towards him seemed to hit an invisible shield half a meter in front of him and bounced away.
There was no time to be astonished, the stag under the elf throne screamed and rushed forward.
Thranduil grasped the long sword in his hand, turned over and was thrown directly into the pile of orcs.
"Hurry up and support His Majesty!" Annis became even more anxious, and then received another silent call from Lucius.
"The archers are in hiding, and the sword and shield players are ready to deal with the scattered half-orcs. The other warriors are on standby and don't go out. I will lead His Majesty to the other side." Lucius raised his wand again, and threw a guiding light ball at Sir In front of Landuy.
Five hundred elves were able to guard the two alleys, but it didn't mean that thousands of people would flood into these two alleys without increasing casualties.On the contrary, for the elves, the key to reducing casualties when fighting orcs is to increase the distance and increase the space for dodging.
Lucius originally wanted Annis to take the elf with the most remaining stamina out to cover Thranduil.But after seeing the performance of the Elf King, he temporarily changed his mind.
Lucius, who had been to the forest with the patrol, was impressed by Legolas' archery skills.Originally, archery should win at long distances, but it is slightly inferior in close combat.But the Elf Prince is clearly good at both.
After observing, Lucius discovered two keys.
One of them is the length of the bow.In order to pursue distance and unity, the archers of the elf army all made the same longbow.The bow that Legolas usually brings out is much shorter, and the bowstring is also more powerful.
And the second point is the key to why other elves can't be as far and near as Legolas.The elf prince's agility far exceeds that of other patrol members.
When Lucius asked this in the small talk, Legolas didn't have much self-awareness about it.Because most of his abilities were taught by Thranduil, that is, the elf king who always wears gorgeous robes that are not suitable for combat and has never been seen in combat training.
While Lucius was surprised by this, he also left the impression that Thranduil was good at bows and arrows.
The truth is, though, that Flash was brilliant, but Thranduil couldn't see a single arrow's feather.His Majesty the Elven King of the Woodland Kingdom wields a sword with two hands.
The weight of the silver armor seemed light, and Thranduil's figure was not much worse than that of Legolas who only wore cloth armor.
Thranduil, who rushed into the city gate single-handedly, not only had the convenience of having a mount, but also had the effect of a blade penetrating through the siege of orcs.
Dash, spin.Thranduil was not injured when he fell into the crowd of orcs, but was like a wolf among sheep.With just one turn around, the circle around him was emptied.
Perhaps because he realized that the protective magic effect Lucius had given him was still in effect, Thranduil didn't spend any effort on defense.
From the moment he rushed into the city gate and fell off the stag until he regained his footing, Thranduil's aura made the circle of half-orcs shy and dare not move forward, and at the same time, cleared a path where he passed Long blank strips.The procession of elves running behind the elf king and rushing back to the city continued smoothly.
In a blink of an eye, the sword and shield elves, who together with Thranduil also broke through the half-orc's interception, emptied half of the enemies in the city gate square.
At this moment, Thranduil raised his head and looked at the roof where Lucius was.
The eyes of both sides met for a brief moment, and they were separated at the touch of a finger.
Lucius' guiding light group just happened to come in front of the Elf King.
Lifting his sword, Thranduil directly chased in the direction where the light group flew.
Over there, the half-orc, who was stunned by the elf's imposing attack, began to retreat subconsciously.
For a moment, Lucius' chest felt warm, surrounded by a feeling called trust.
He was actually not sure that the elf king could detect the situation of the elves staying behind in such a short moment.Naturally, it was even more uncertain that Thranduil could really understand his fighting intentions.
"Why don't you lead Your Majesty to rest after our defense, and lead Your Majesty to a further place?" Annis saw Lucius climb back to the second floor, and pulled him up, but the unsealed mouth Still can't help complaining.
"Is there a way to summon only our archers through the horn?" Lucius didn't respond to Annis's half of the resentment that had dissipated on his own. In his pocket, he took out the map that Thranduil handed him yesterday.
"Yes, but generally archers will be accompanied by sword-shieldmen who are assigned to protect them during battles. If we summon archers, these sword-shieldmen will follow." When it comes to army deployment, Annis's answer is the best. Skillful and fast.
"Here, and here." Lucius pointed out two locations one after another with his fingertips, "these are the two closest arms storage points to us. I checked them last night, and there are no human guards. Annis, you take the first Half of the sword and shield fighters in the three alleys are on standby. Once the archers who respond to the horn gather in your direction, protect them and retreat to the fourth alley. The sword and shield fighters guard the intersection, and the archers go to the warehouse to replenish arrows. After completing the same deployment as here in the fourth alley, you will advance into the city one by one with soldiers who are familiar with this tactic until you reach the location of the second armament warehouse."
"It's too slow!" Annis said anxiously.
"There are too many enemies. If we don't come this way, the archers will suffer a lot of casualties as soon as our defense line is extended. Don't question my orders at this time. Follow my instructions. Your Majesty, the road they took will eventually It will lead to your destination. If your efficiency is high enough, they will arrive there in about the same time. Whether His Majesty can have a chance to rest depends on your defense speed." Lucius stared again Glancing at Anis, he stared at the latter and shrank his neck, "After all our troops pass through the city gate, I will try my best to make the city gate collapse as much as possible. The subsequent arrangements are waiting for my notice. Before I send an order, can you Stay as long as you want. Recycle the weapons from the orc corpses. If there are too many corpses, find a way to throw them at various intersections and use them as roadblocks."
"Why do you know so much about the terrain in the city?" Another elf named Uther asked suddenly.
"I researched it in advance yesterday. I just wanted to plan ahead when I was bored..." Lucius answered casually, and suddenly realized that Uther called himself a bit wrong just now, so he quickly stopped talking, "There is no time, as soon as possible !"
As Lucius had guessed before, during the first round of the orc army's charge outside, even though the elf archers were protected at the back.But on the way back to the city, the number of casualties of the archers began to rise sharply.
After Annis and his party rushed out of the alley, Lucius called five archers to circle the city wall with him from the roof, in order to observe the situation outside the city gate.
After the initial formation completely entered the city, the width of the elves' team decreased sharply, leaving behind corpses of elves on the way back to River Valley City.
Seeing this scene, one of the female archers who came with Lucius almost cried bitterly.
Since humans were caught in the middle by the elf army from the beginning, they did not suffer much damage in the initial impact.But in the subsequent charge, human force had to shoulder the responsibility of covering the elf archers.Their efforts effectively prevented the further loss of the elf archers, and there was another person besides Bard who played the most important role.
Although he had never met, Lucius confirmed the identity of the other party immediately.Tall, gray robe and pointed hat.Gandalf's attire is not much different from the old guys in the wizarding world.
Faithfully following Thranduil's instructions, Lucius decided to stay away from the area where he would be found: "You wait for the opportunity, and when the tail of the friendly army steps onto the long bridge, start attacking and suppressing the orcs behind. But remember to Give priority to attacking Orc archers and special arms."
"What about you?" the female elf subconsciously asked with a crying voice.
The honorific title in the words made Lucius frowned imperceptibly, and a feeling of incongruity rose in his heart.However, in the battle command, the more obedient the elf warrior is to him, the more effective the order will be executed.
"I'll take a look at the city gate." After speaking, Lucius' eyes fell on the brown spot not far from the city gate.
I hope you are still alive...
