Chapter 2704 Battle of Baicheng (Nioh 2 Is Used to Death)
After beating up Faramir, Fangzheng slipped away that day. Although he intended to prevent the other party from going to death, he beat the regent's son in front of so many people in Baicheng. It would be very embarrassing, so Fangzheng decisively stepped aside.
Anyway, he brought the letter from the king of Rohan, and he had already seen the military strength of Sauron. It was time for Rohan's army to gather, so Fang Zheng also turned around and ran, and went back directly.
When Fang Zheng came to Dunharlow, it was already the morning of the third day, and upon learning of Fang Zheng's arrival, the old king and prince immediately came out to greet him.
"You're back at last, sir!"
"Well, I'm back."
Fangzheng nodded at the two of them, and then looked around.
"Where are those guys?"
"...they left."
Hearing Fang Zheng's question, the prince sighed, of course he knew who Fang Zheng was referring to.
"Oh I got it."
Of course Fangzheng knew where the Rangers and the others had gone. They went to the Canyon of the Undead, and then Aragorn summoned an army of undead who had defected in the name of the King of Gondor, and then returned to White City, defeating Sauron's army.
In fact, to be honest, Fangzheng dislikes this part the most in the movie, because before this, there has been no undead army, and then suddenly the Elf King came, sent Aragorn a sword, and Aragorn took Take the sword and go to summon the army of the undead. It feels like rote and rote, with no logic at all. Originally, everyone was going to desperately resist until the last moment, but you suddenly started to hang up, and you assembled a group of invincible troops who are invulnerable and not afraid of the sun.
He also said that the next is the era of human beings, but he was rescued by a group of undead. Isn't it about the era of undead?
Shall I give you a Lich King?
If you want to show the courage of human beings, you have to show it to the end. Even if a large army from all countries in Middle-earth gathers suddenly to deal with Sauron, it is more reliable and reasonable than an army of undead.
In the end, you human beings can't beat Sauron, and you have to rely on the undead army to get rid of it?
What kind of human epic is this?
Of course, Fangzheng also understands the meaning of this plot design, if it is not written in this way, Aragorn will have a fart in the Lord of the Rings. His so-called "royal bloodline" is used here to subdue the undead, otherwise, the last heir of the royal family and the like, its gold content may not even compare with Liu Bei's "Queen of King Jing of Zhongshan", it is simply a waste Paper.
The kind that is too hard to wipe your ass.
After all, in the Western world, this theory of blood is popular. Look at the Regent, because he does not recognize this, he was called a despicable and shameless villain greedy for power by Gandalf.
It seems that only the heirs of the royal blood are eligible to become rulers, and others are disrespectful thieves who dare to rise to the throne.
Although Fangzheng has never met the regent, he still quite agrees with the sentence "Gondor doesn't need a king" in the first movie when Rohamir confronted Aragorn face to face.
Fangzheng doesn't hate Aragorn, but he dislikes the setting that "only royal blood can save the world", so Fangzheng plans to change the way—well, if Aragorn brings an army of undead to Minas Tirith , and then find out that Sauron has been defeated, that scene must be very interesting.
"Forget it, leave them alone, I brought back information about Minas Tirith, the situation is serious."
Thinking of this, Fangzheng didn't say anything more, and soon led King Rohan and his party into the tent, and began to talk about his discovery.
At the same time, Sauron's army also surrounded Minas Tirith, and a great battle began.
"Fangzheng made the right decision not to let you go."
Standing on the city wall, watching the two sides launching catapults to attack each other, Gandalf also touched the cold sweat on his forehead and looked at Faramir beside him. The regent lost his mind. After seeing his royal city surrounded by Sauron's army, he screamed for someone to protect the city. However, Faramir was knocked unconscious by Fang Zheng, and Rohan's reinforcements did not arrive. In desperation, the regent yelled for everyone to run for their lives, then he jumped off the high platform and fell to his death in front of everyone.
At that time, the whole of Minas Tirith was in chaos. Fortunately, Gandalf turned the tide. He first stabilized the army, and then awakened Faramir. After seeing the appearance of Faramir, the chaotic army finally stabilized. Defend the royal city under the command of Faramir.
If Faramir died... it would really be over.
"It's a pity, it would be better if he could stay here."
Standing on the city wall, Faramir smiled wryly when he heard Gandalf's words. Although he also grieved for his father's death, Faramir was clearly aware of his responsibilities, so even though he was very sad, he still cheered up and commanded the army to fight against Sauron.
For a while, the two sides were at a stalemate because the other party did not dispatch the Ring Spirits this time. Obviously, Fangzheng's killing of two Ring Spirits in a row before completely shocked Sauron's army, so this time they did not send the Ring Spirits out to assist the army in attacking the city as before, but let the half-orc army go on their own.
After all, there were thousands of Orcs, but only nine Nazgul—oh, now there were only seven left.
After all, the ring spirit killed by Fangzheng was totally annihilated, and those who died could not die again.
This frightened the ring spirits, they couldn't understand why someone could kill them, and completely wiped themselves out. So now they don't dare to appear, and because of this, Minas Tirith was able to persist under the attack of the orcs.
After all, if you simply guard the city, even if the number is relatively small, it will be very beneficial. As long as you persist until the reinforcements from Rohan arrive, then the difficulties will be solved. It was the same before, as long as the Ringwraiths do not appear, Faramir's army will not be defeated so quickly. Their evil magic can disintegrate the fighting spirit of the soldiers, making them full of fear and unwilling to fight. This is the biggest problem.
The ring spirits have not appeared until now, obviously because they are afraid of Fang Zheng's power. If they find that Fangzheng is not in the city, they will probably launch an attack immediately. At that time, they don't know what will happen.
Of course, the most ideal situation is that the Ringwraiths will not appear until the reinforcements from Rohan arrive. If this is the case, then there is still power to fight.
Now let's see how long the other party can endure.
Suppressing the anxiety in his heart, Faramir looked forward again.
"Immediately evacuate women and children, and move everyone to a safe place! Continue to fight, hold on, Rohan reinforcements will arrive soon!!"
Unfortunately, Faramir's expectation did not become a reality after all.
Obviously, the fact that the Orc Legion was unable to attack Minas Tirith for a long time could not satisfy their ruler. Just as dark clouds enveloped the entire White City, sharp and mournful screams appeared again, and then, The ring spirit driving the dark beast appeared from the clouds and rushed towards the royal city.
With the appearance of the ring spirits, the defense of the royal city finally began to loosen.
Amid the screams of the ferocious beasts, the soldiers lost their fighting spirit and determination to fight. They hugged their heads and curled up in a ball, resisting the piercing screams in pain.
At the same time, the half-orc army also cooperated with the Nazgul to launch an offensive again. They launched a huge battering ram and knocked hard on the thick and hard gate of Minas Tirith. Under the attack of the battering ram, the extremely strong city gate finally couldn't hold on, and began to crack with a whining sound.
"The city gate can no longer be guarded!"
Seeing this scene, Faramir also made a decisive decision.
"Everyone evacuated to the second floor immediately, put gravel, and poured fire oil!!!"
Under the order of Faramir, all the soldiers quickly evacuated, they poured oil on the ground, and then pushed down the boulder to block the passage on the first floor.
But when the battering ram broke through the first city gate and the orcs rushed into the White City, what they saw were countless rockets flying towards them.
The burning flame instantly ignited the kerosene splashed on the ground, and in the blink of an eye, the entire first floor was completely engulfed in a sea of flames. And those half-orcs who were in it were naturally not spared.
"Huh... Fortunately, it can be blocked."
Faramir also heaved a long sigh. He knew the power of the Ring Spirits, so Faramir also made several preparations to deal with the Ring Spirits. After all, their only purpose now is to stall for time and try to hold the city before Rohan's reinforcements arrive. So he had to adopt this scorched-earth strategy. In any case, the flames and boulders would not be frightened by the magic of the Ring Spirits, let alone flee in a panic. From a certain point of view, this was obviously much more reliable than soldiers.
However, this has also reached the limit.
Orcs poured into the city like a tide, and the soldiers of Minas Tirith also began to retreat again. Although the scorched earth strategy had some effect, there were also threats such as trebuchets and ring spirits on the opposite side. After the threat from the soldiers on the city wall, the trebuchets of the orc army suddenly started to exert force, and stones flew out one after another, hitting the towers and walls of Baicheng, turning them into tattered wreckage.
Just as Faramir was thinking about what to do next, suddenly, a loud horn sounded, which overwhelmed the howling and killing cries on the battlefield, echoing across the sky.
"That is…………!"
Hearing the sound of the horn, Faramir's eyes lit up, and he turned around hastily, only to see a dark army appearing on the far side of the horizon on the other side.
"It's Rohan's reinforcements!!"
Seeing this scene, the soldiers on the city wall suddenly cheered excitedly.
"It seems that we came at a good time."
Looking at the besieged Baicheng in front of him, Fangzheng whistled, and then looked at the old king beside him.
"Your Majesty, are you ready? Let's go... Time waits for no one."
"Rohan Cavalry!!"
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, the old king suddenly pulled out his long sword and shouted.
"charge!!!"
"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"
The charge horn sounded.
The next moment, the Rohan cavalry galloped down the hillside like a tide, rushing towards Sauron's army ahead.
That's right.
Seeing this scene, Fangzheng nodded in satisfaction. What the cavalry wants is the speed of soldiers, and the sudden attack. Talking nonsense like in the movie and giving people time to change formation and defense is simply stupid.
If you want to boost morale, when can you not talk nonsense, but do you have to say it in front of the enemy?
Then, I should do it too.
Withdrawing his thoughts, Fangzheng looked forward, and then he stepped up the accelerator. The next moment, a black shadow shot out from the cavalry, and rushed towards the orc army!
At this moment, the half-orc army also spotted the galloping cavalry and hurriedly wanted to change their formation, but Fang Zheng certainly wouldn't give them this chance.
"Let's set off a handful of gorgeous and colorful fireworks!"
While shouting, Fangzheng pressed the button at hand, and then he saw the rear of the jet-black motorcycle suddenly unfold, and dozens of miniature missiles flew out with streaks of white smoke, rushing towards the orc army ahead.
"Boom boom boom boom!!!"
The next moment, a series of explosions mixed with flames emerged from the half-orc army in an instant, completely disrupting the already chaotic formation of the half-orcs.
