Chapter 422 Orc Attack

"Oh! Oh!" Suddenly there was a loud noise outside.

"What the hell? Howling there?" Thorin looked displeased.

"It's not good..." A dwarf stumbled in.

"What's wrong?" Thorin asked quickly, stunned.

"The orc army is coming from the north!" The sentry on guard from the outside came in from the path and said to Thorin breathlessly.

"Damn it! The orcs are one step ahead of Dyne!" Thorin's face changed as he looked at Balin who was on crutches.

"We need to strengthen our defenses! This orc may be from Gambada or Dol Guldur! The orcs in these two fortresses are not easy to deal with!" Thorin Balin and the others have fought against the orcs in both places. I know how difficult it is for the orcs in this fortress.

"I'm afraid they will attack soon!" Dwalin said worriedly.

"Get ready to fight!" Thorin sighed. The orc reinforcements came first and had an impact on the entire dwarves' strategy of coming down.

"Yes!" Everyone responded, and then went down to prepare to drive.

…

"What's going on? Have you been attacked by dwarves?" The orc army that was besieging the dwarves of Moria was shocked when they saw the dusty Dol Guldur army. The army in front of them seemed to have just been beaten violently by someone. The humiliation of being forced into the sewer in the dark was doubled again.

"No, it's those damn elves of Lorien!" the orc commander of Dol Guldur said with a clear heart. Only he knew clearly what it felt like to strike halfway across the river... That feeling was too painful... The rain of arrows seemed to have no end. All the orcs were floating on the water, unable to escape. Countless sharp arrows were fired at the orcs. The black-red blood instantly dyed the Anduin River with a hint of ink. …

"Why did the elves ambush you?" The orcs became nervous instantly. They welcomed the support from the orcs in Dol Guldur with both hands and feet, but if the reinforcements brought an army of elves... then there was no need... …

Elves are much more difficult to deal with than dwarves. The long lifespan of elves makes almost all elves a professional, and rangers account for most of them. In the hands of elves, this kind of profession that can be played far and near can be said to be superb, and it can be said to be superb compared to humans. Like the world-famous knights, the elf rangers are also a brand. The established elf rangers are fully capable of killing multiple orcs without paying any price.

"They ambushed us when we were crossing the river, and we came around from upstream!" said the orc commander of Dol Guldur.

"...They didn't come with them!" the orc lords and officers of the Misty Mountains said quickly. If the elven army is really behind them, then they should consider whether they should withdraw. The elves in the Golden Forest are difficult to deal with. They are famous. At this moment, the eyes of the orcs in the Misty Mountains have changed when they look at their fellow tribesmen in Dol Guldur. How hard must it be to pass through the elven defense zone in the Golden Forest?

"No..." the orcs in Dol Guldur denied. Of course, they didn't know why the Lorien elves who daily monitored the fortress of Dol Guldur didn't track the whereabouts of the orcs.

In fact, there was a small group of elves hanging not far behind the Orcs at this moment, and they were closely monitoring the Orcs' whereabouts.

"What are these orcs planning to do?" an elf ranger asked in confusion.

"Orcs have besieged the mines of Moria. The fighting here has been fierce in the past two days!" A ranger snarled.

"Ah? Then why don't we stop this army of orcs? Let them come over?" Another elf was a little surprised.

After all, after the Elf Tou Tou gave the Orcs a hard fight, he did not pursue the Orcs with a large army. Instead, he expelled the Orcs from his sphere of influence and sent a team of rangers to hang them from a distance. The elves I don’t want to create extraneous problems.

"The alliance has long existed in name only. There is no need for us to bleed for the dwarves..." The elves of the Golden Forest are xenophobic, and it is normal for them to be unwilling to fight for the dwarves.

"But the situation of the dwarves is not optimistic..." An elf couldn't bear to say.

"That's their own choice!" The ranger captain stretched out his hand to suppress everyone's discussion. When the dwarves chose to recover Moria, they should have thought of the dilemma they would face now. The price of Moria being easy to defend and difficult to attack is that it is surrounded on all sides. No reinforcements could arrive quickly to support them. The only two elven reinforcements had direct conflicts with the dwarves, so the elves stood by and watched. (Of course, the elves don’t know yet that Sauron has returned to Middle-earth. If they knew that the Demon King Sauron had returned, the Elven Queen and Elrond would risk their lives to rescue Moria. After all, the big mine is a shortcut to connect things. )

…

"Kill them off!" the dwarves roared and drove the orcs out of the cave, then quickly retreated.

"Thorin, the orcs have attacked our defense line several times in a row!" Dwalin discovered that the frequency of the orcs' attacks had increased significantly.

"Their reinforcements have arrived, and the intensity of their attacks is increasing!" Balin looked at Thorin and gasped.

"Thorin, you have to decide. The orcs' general attack will come soon. They are consuming the physical strength and morale of our soldiers! You need to decide whether we will stay or go!" Balin looked at Thorin. When the king under the mountain was here, At that time, all dwarves needed to obey his orders, including of course Balin, the king of Moria.

"We are here to fight! Our ancestors have soaked this land with blood. We will not! We cannot give up this place! The dwarves have no cowards! If they want to come, let them come! The pale orcs have fallen at the foot of the lone mountain, The blood of the Orc king should also be left on the land of Khazad-dûm!" Thorin's eyes were full of rage. No one would doubt Thorin Oakenshield's determination. This resolute dwarf king would definitely do what he said. to defend Moria like that.

"In that case, we will defend Moria! Ouli! Ouyin! Lead people to repair the tunnels and bridges at the west gate! Even if we defend the Moria mines, we must leave a way out for ourselves!" Bahrain is mature and prudent, even if it is true in the end Despite being defeated, the dwarves were still able to retain the fire of their own tribe, instead of all being trapped in Moria.

…

"Winter!" The mountain shook violently, and everyone looked at each other in surprise during the shaking.

"It's the Behemoth! These damn orcs have brought a Behemoth!" The alert dwarves outside staggered in and fell to the ground in the shaking before taking two steps.

"Asshole! Go out and take a look!" Thorin said quickly. The appearance of the Behemoth beast cast a shadow over everyone's hearts.

If the arrival of the orc reinforcements only surprised the dwarves, then the appearance of Beamon was enough to panic the dwarves.

Thorin sneaked out quietly with a few people and took a look before retreating.

"We are in trouble!" Thorin said with a dark face as soon as he came back.
