Volume 12 [Creation! The Death of the Terminator!] Chapter 51 The Ending Is Coming!

(Apologies first, the previous text should be Anduin River, mistakenly written as Andes)

The terrifying river water swept in, surging, rolling muddy yellow mud, as if there were countless angry monsters hiding below, choosing people to devour.

Because of the lack of preparation, dry alfalfa leaves, house materials, and Gondorian-style reed mats floating in white foam can be seen everywhere on the river surface. Even the surface of the river is flooded with an amazing fishy smell, which almost makes people vomit.

Such a scene can be said to be completely different from the previous impression of Anduin River with blue sky and white clouds, white sails, and smooth waves! Fortunately, although the flood seems to be raging and flooding the vast Palano Plain, the water level is not deep - the shallow places reach the calves, and the deep places are at most waist-to-earth - to be honest, this level of flood is estimated to be the greatest threat to Brother Jinpi, and the rest of the people only need to keep themselves from being washed away, and the chance of being drowned is very small.

In the final analysis. After all, the Anduin River is the longest river in Middle-earth, and it is at the same level as the Mississippi River, the Amazon River, and the Nile River on Earth. Therefore, it is unrealistic to stop its flow without heavy engineering machinery and then use it to flood the Seven Armies.

In fact, as early as in the nightmare space before, the Sir's think tank team proposed a plan to block the water and break the dam. The reason why it was rejected in the end was because they calculated and analyzed that water attacks should be kept secret. If you want to make a large-scale collapse under the supervision of the 200,000 orc legions, it is theoretically almost impossible to succeed. At best, it is to follow the flood channel created by Minas Tirith every year, and pass water and fertilizer on the Palenor Plain once -

What benefits can be gained by doing this?

It seems that letting the orcs drink water and roll in the mud seems to be very cool, but! Don't forget that a very important support force in the human alliance is the Rohan cavalry. Without them, the human alliance will never be able to hold on until Aragorn leads the ghost army back.

Therefore, for the human alliance, watering the Palano Plains can only disgust the orcs at most, but it is still extremely disadvantageous to them!

Think about the miserable situation of the poor Rohan cavalry who lost their impact in the swamp. Therefore, when the Sir's think tank team proposed this plan, it was not only quickly rejected and asked to keep it secret, but these people also kept begging the other party not to think of this key factor.

The flood peak rushed past, and the morale of the remaining soldiers of the human alliance gradually recovered a little, because they found that the flood washed away dozens of people except for the first few waves, and then it became weak. Not only that, even at the peak, the water level was only up to the waist, so a frightened heart that was hanging up slowly began to let go.

However, as the saying goes, the less you know, the happier you are. At this time, the mood of the Sir and his team was doubly gloomy. In fact, they already knew that these guys in front of them must have a backhand, and it was like a chain, interlocking, and very vicious backhand!

Soon, those who were struggling in the muddy water saw a dense crowd of sampans and rafts coming from afar! These small boats probably had a very shallow draft and could probably sail freely in the swamp. Without exception, all of them were filled with pirates who were excited and screaming! !

These pirates were dressed in a hideous manner, with disheveled hair and black clothes, which were very tattered. Because there was a kind of parasite similar to fleas prevalent in Middle-earth, which liked to hide in the hair, causing great trouble and spreading diseases, more than 30% of the pirates were bald and shaved their hair to prevent the growth of this parasite.

However, the pirates were also wearing standard leather armor, which showed that the Umbar pirates had almost formed a country. Those leather armors were made of two layers of animal skins, and a mat made of local red coconut fiber was placed in the middle, which had a very good protective effect against arrows and swords, and could also prevent the spread of fire. Some small boats were also lit with blazing fire barrels, which seemed to be used to ignite torches and rockets.

For the confidants left by Fang Senyan, it was very smooth to persuade these suspicious pirates to do things. Compared with fighting face to face on the battlefield, they still felt that it was most cost-effective to build a dam to weaken the enemy first. In fact, if it were not for the faith of the dark king Sauron supervising the battle, these unscrupulous guys might have dispersed long ago.

It can be seen that the biggest weakness of the pirates is that they have no organization and discipline, and they are a mess. In the competition with the regular army, this kind of mob is often looked down upon. If it were under normal circumstances, these tens of thousands of Umbar pirates would have been defeated on land against the thousands of elites left in Minas Tirith.

It is no wonder that the Umbar pirates have such a weak presence. It turns out that it is not unreasonable for everyone to look down on them.

But under Fang Senyan's plan, even scrap iron must shine with its own light, and even a piece of toilet paper must be used to wipe its face, then the table, and then the butt before it is discarded. It must be used to the greatest extent!

The Umbar pirates were in chaos at this time, but the Minas Tirith defenders, who were washed to the ground by the flood and looked like mud monkeys, did they have any discipline? Fang Senyanmu had no way to make the Umbar pirates obey discipline and be in order in a short time, but he could find a way to make the well-trained enemies messed up!

This was to fight the enemy's disorder with one's own disorder, and the pirates came by boat, which gave them an innate advantage and made up for the lack of combat effectiveness.

What's more vicious is that the amount of water accumulated in this short period of time is limited after all. It only takes a dozen minutes to wait for the water to slowly recede from the higher-lying Palano Plain, and it will become a temporary swamp in two or three days!

This means that the pirates saw that the opportunity was not good, and when their morale collapsed, they couldn't escape by boat. In such a muddy environment, the mobility of both sides was weakened to the extreme. Once a battle occurred, the chance of the weaker party wanting to escape was very low, so the weaker party was destined to fight desperately!

Fang Senyan wanted to fight such a big battle! He would fight a brutal war of attrition with the enemy in the form of exchanging pieces. Do you remember the battle plan Fang Senyan had initially drawn up? The power of an individual is insignificant in front of the power of the battle. The power of Fang Senyan's team is like a small wave in a large battle of thousands or tens of thousands of people. It will be quickly annihilated and can only affect one area at most. However, when this battle is over, the power of the ace team plus their contribution will be very important! !

Fang Senyan's initial idea of ​​the endgame has already taken shape!

Of course, as the saying goes, one general's success is the result of the sacrifice of thousands of bones. As for how many Umbar pirates will be left after this battle, he has not considered it. Tens of thousands of pirates can leave a few thousand people to provide faith for the Dark Source Hall. I believe that the great dark king Sauron will not bother with these trivial details...

Compared with the previous battles, this bloody battle may not be exciting enough, but the tragic atmosphere is extremely murderous!

Under Fang Senyan's calculation, both sides had no way to retreat, and could only ignite a fierce fight. After the flood receded, the high places on the Palano Plain were extremely muddy, but the low places would leave puddles, but the puddles were filled with shocking red, and the horrible scene of both sides being injured after fighting could be seen everywhere.

In this muddy environment, it is really a paradise for long-range attackers. It is difficult for the opponent to dodge the attack, and it is almost a hundred shots. However, if you are attacked, then this place is a nightmare hell.

In such an environment, Fang Senyan was also helpless with Legolas, the elf prince. He had an extremely sharp longbow and almost had the upper hand. Even the Sea Alliance and Blue Light Team, who rushed here after hearing the news and wanted to beat the drowning dog, also had more than ten people killed by his arrows!

You know, those who can survive until now are all core figures in the team! The two teams lost more than ten people, which can be said to be seriously injured. Of course, Aziz, Zi, and Aldaris in Fang Senyan's team also reaped amazing benefits.

In the end, with the help of the Elf Prince's solo dance and the Jazz's improvisation, they used several contractors who were good at earth magic and supernatural powers to create a dry road. In the end, there were still one or two thousand troops who escaped into Minas Tirith, but more than half of these soldiers were exchanged by contractors.

Compared with the regular army, the biggest disadvantage of these exchanged soldiers is that they belong to a large number of different masters and fight on their own. War means death, but the selfishness of contractors is often much greater than that of others, and they often let the plot soldiers take the lead. It is precisely because of this that it can be recognized that at least the combat effectiveness of the soldiers exchanged by contractors is 2:3 with the combat effectiveness of the plot soldiers. It takes 300 soldiers exchanged by contractors to match 200 plot soldiers. Therefore, the more soldiers belonging to contractors escape, the more Fang Senyan is happy to see it happen.

In comparison, the Umbar pirates actually survived with nearly 3,000 people. It must be said that this muddy area is like their home field for them, which gives them a great advantage. Fang Senyan is not blindly cruel and coercive. These guys who can survive will not be used as cannon fodder to attack the city. They just need to do a good job of defense. Their role is to provide faith to the Dark Source Hall and keep it unbreakable. (To be continued. Please search for Piaotian Literature, the novels are better and updated faster!)
