Chapter 582: Poor Rohan

After all, Saruman was a Maia, and he had lived for so many years. As the saying goes, people are old and spirits are old, and even a pig has become a spirit after so many years.

Therefore, it is not surprising that Saruman would use such a strategy to divide the combat power of the Rohan cavalry.

As long as the Rohan cavalry are divided on the grassland and cannot form an organization and climate, then it will only be a matter of time before Saruman conquers Helm's Deep.

"In this case, we must rush to the royal capital of Edoras as soon as possible!"

Gandalf also knew this. If the Rohan cavalry suffered too many losses, even if they solved the problem, it would be of no avail.

After knowing how powerful it was, everyone began to march quickly. Even if they were attacked by other strong orc and half-orc armies, they just faced each other and quickly retreated, not wanting to fight at all.

Then they finally arrived at Edoras, the capital of Rohan, at dawn the next day.

"Is that really the royal capital? Why are there so many thatched houses?"

The hobbits said innocently, leaving Eomer and Théod, who had recovered last night, not knowing what to say. Compared to Gondor, a rich old man, Rohan really seemed like a bunch of bastards. .

If it weren't for the great enemy Mordor, and the white mountains that blocked their direct dialogue, they might have started fighting.

Perhaps this kind of contradiction will be stimulated in the future, but for now, it is better not to say such thoughts and words that are not conducive to unity.

"Let's go there."

Gandalf did not answer Frodo's question, and changed the subject abruptly.

"Rohan is very shabby, because they are a country of nomads. Gondor is different. But after the problem of Mordor is solved, Rohan only needs to cross the White Mountains to plunder Gondor. By then, the royal capital Maybe it will be different.”

Changwei was good at being a teacher and explained to Frodo.

Aragorn: "..."

Éomer and Théod were stunned. Can such words be said to a child?

"Chang Wei, what are you talking about!"

Gandalf said quickly.

"This is a fact and necessity. Rohan is too poor and backward. Only when there are foreign enemies can they temporarily let go of their greed."

Chang Wei said.

"Rohan is not greedy!"

Eomer said angrily.

"that is!"

Thyod also followed suit.

"There may be people in Rohan who are not greedy, but they definitely want a better life, and the only way to achieve a better life is through plundering. Otherwise, what other way out can you have?"

Chang Wei's words made them even more excited, but they were so excited that they didn't know how to refute Chang Wei's words.

"The only specialty of Rohan is horses, but selling horses alone cannot satisfy your pursuit of a better life."

Chang Wei continued.

"There must be a way, Eomer, Thyod, let's create a beautiful life in Gondor and Rohan together!"

Aragorn glared at Chang Wei, wondering why he was talking such nonsense, and then said firmly to Eomer and Théod.

"Well, I believe you, Aragorn!"

Both of them nodded, thinking that what Chang Wei said was impossible, they were allies.

Chang Wei didn't care either. Young people are very beautiful when they are young, especially the one who leads the way and lives up to his youth.

If he died when he was a teenager, maybe it would be different.

Everyone except Chang Wei was tired and exhausted. They didn't know why Chang Wei was still so energetic.

Suddenly, the sound of galloping horses and neighing came from not far away.

Then they saw a group of tough cavalry appear.

This is a group of extremely elite cavalry. They are very skilled in training. They basically run in a protective formation. There are about five hundred people in total.

Eomer and Théod immediately waved to them.

Then this group of cavalry showed a surprising tactical deformation. The leader in the middle just gave an order, and the entire cavalry bent to both sides and went behind the leader. The other cavalry remained undisturbed during this tactical deformation and kept moving forward. .

The leader saw Eomer and Théod, and the whole cavalry changed direction and came to them.

Then the two cavalrymen separated to the left and right and surrounded everyone. They also raised their lances and pointed them at everyone's chests.

The cavalry belonging to Eomer lowered their lances.

After some conversation, I learned that this cavalry was going to rescue a tribe. It was said that two to three hundred strong orcs and orcs were invading, and this 500-man cavalry was more than enough.

After learning of their purpose, the cavalry followed them voluntarily.

The problem now is not to take care of those tribes, but the problem of Theoden, the king, must be solved. He has been completely controlled by the white-robed wizard Saruman. Not only has he become indistinguishable from friend to foe, he has even I don’t even know my relatives anymore.

The reason why the Rohan cavalry is so easily divided is not only because Saruman controls Théoden, but also because he often walks around in the form of an old man, and his spies are everywhere.

In terms of intelligence warfare, Rohan is at a disadvantage.

So it's no wonder why they are like this.

If the problem of King Théoden can be solved, then Rohan will not be afraid of any enemy!

They soon arrived under the wooden city wall of the royal capital Edoras.

Looking at the wooden wall, Chang Wei was very curious about what they were thinking.

Although it is not that this thing cannot be used, at least several rows of closely connected wooden stakes should be made, otherwise it will be gone in an instant?

Not to mention the city gate, the small city gate that can only accommodate two horses looks so-so.

Eomer and his men revealed their identities, and the city gate slowly opened.

Everyone entered Edoras and found that this city, the so-called capital, was so-so and the population was pitifully small.

Even Aragorn and Boromir were greatly surprised to see this scene.

Thinking of what Chang Wei said before, they couldn't help but waver.

"Rohan has too many reasons to plunder Gondor. Even if the Oath of Eor shines like a shining star, in this case, it is no longer the reason why they don't want the Oath of Eor. Reality is more convincing than anything else."

Chang Wei continued.

Although the dwarf Gimli didn't understand, he still expressed his evaluation of Edoras.

"This place is worse than a grave."

After hearing what they said, Eomer and Théodre's faces darkened, but they didn't know what to say.
