Chapter 535: Azog's Tactical Cutting!

Dain's father was killed by orcs.

Dain's iron-footed uncle Thorne and grandfather Thor were also killed by orcs.

Dain Iron Foot also bears the humiliating nickname of "Dain the Late", so when he sees the army of orcs, he has only one word in his heart: kill!

The strength of the Iron Foot Army is extraordinary, for so many years, Dai Yin Iron Foot has worked hard, with exquisite excavation and forging technology, the pig iron in the iron hill fiefdom has been excavated, cast into a variety of weapons, equipment, utensils, and has also won an excellent reputation and wealth.

Using this wealth, he was able to create such a formidable Iron Foot Army.

Dwarves don't live more than elves for tens of thousands of years, but they outlive humans and hobbits much longer.

It is said that the ancestor of the dwarves, Turin the Undead, lived to be at least 1,300 years old.

Of course, all the dwarves after this have not lived past a thousand years, and even five hundred years old is extremely rare.

Of course, this also has something to do with the habits of the dwarves, who are strong and like to drink for pleasure, and if they can quit drinking and do not engage in high-intensity digging and forging work all the time, then it should be normal for the dwarves to live to 500 years.

The old mad king Thor lived to be over 400 years old, and if he hadn't been beheaded by Azog during the Battle of the Blue Mountains, he might have lived to be over 500 years old.

But in any case, the average age of the dwarves is over 200 years old, even for the most ordinary dwarves.

Such a racial lifespan also gave Dain Iron Foot the opportunity to train an elite army for a long time.

From the Battle of the Blue Mountains more than 50 years ago, Dain Iron Foot has established the prototype of the Iron Foot Army, when the Iron Foot Army had 500 people, although the number is not much, but all of them are the elite figures carefully selected by Dain Iron Foot.

These selected Iron Foot Army have no worries about food and clothing all their lives, and their families are also free of food and clothing, and they don't have to work at all, if the Iron Foot Army dies in battle, then their families will receive the most solemn martyr's courtesy.

Therefore, under such favorable conditions, countless dwarves are proud to join the Iron Foot Army, and Dai because of the Iron Foot strictly controls the number, treating every dwarf is carefully selected, more than 3,000 Iron Foot Army, he regards them as brothers and sisters, he can clearly recognize every Iron Foot Army, and can also call the name of every Iron Foot brother's family!

With such a leader, the Iron Foot Army is naturally a desperate follower of Dai Yin's Iron Foot.

When Dain roared "advance, advance", none of the Iron Feet were scared in their hearts, their steps were neat and firm, and their eyes were like death!

When the army of half-orcs rushed over fiercely, wanting to swallow the three thousand iron-footed troops in one gulp, the iron-footed troops immediately showed their three-meter-long steel spears, each of which stabbed at least three half-orcs to death!

When the steel spear broke, they used their war hammers and sharp axes to engage in a bloody battle with the orcs, and Dai Yin's iron feet also rushed to the front, taking the lead!

In less than three minutes of the confrontation between the Iron Foot Army and the Orc Army, hundreds of soldiers of the Iron Foot Army died heroically!

And the orc troops killed by them were as many as thousands!

That's pretty much a 1:10 battle loss ratio!

The bravery of the Iron Foot Army can be seen!

You know, they're facing an elite army of half-orcs who are half a body taller than them!

"Hmph." Standing on the top of the snowy peak, Azog couldn't help but let out a contemptuous sneer from his nostrils when he saw his troops being blocked by the Iron Foot Army.

"A bunch of self-defeating guys."

"Do you think ants can hold back the tide?"

"I have an army of 100,000! How can you fight against my 100,000-strong army! Azog shouted, "All the armies! Accelerate the onslaught! Do whatever it takes! Kill them all! ”

With the wave of the Legion's battle flag, the orcs on the front line became even more frenzied.

And in the valley behind, there is still a steady stream of new orc armies!

The formation of the Iron Foot Army was forcefully slammed backwards for dozens of meters!

The row of iron-footed soldiers who rushed to the front was directly overwhelmed by the tide of orcs, and soon died tragically on the position.

And Dain Iron Foot, who rushed to the front, was besieged by the group.

Although, with his strength and the powerful pig-headed war hammer in his hand, the orcs besieging him could not get close to him at all, but the more and more orcs besieging him, the distance between him and the Iron Foot Army behind him was getting farther and farther away, and it was difficult for his orders to be passed on to the Iron Foot Army.

He was completely out of touch with the Iron Foot Army, and was cut by Azog's tactics!

If from this point of view, Dain Iron Foot did make a mistake.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with taking the lead, but it must be adapted to local conditions, the opponent's strength is obviously far superior to his own, and if he is aggressive, it is easy to cause formation cutting, and when he is surrounded by cutting, the Iron Foot Army behind will be leaderless, and he doesn't know what to do for a while.

In terms of the personal strength of the Iron Foot Army, it is naturally very strong, but an army without a commander, no matter how strong the individual combat effectiveness is, it is difficult to give full play to its own advantages.

Tactically speaking, Azog is indeed superior to Dain's Iron Feet.

Dain Iron Foot desperately attacked the orc soldiers around him, and the orc soldiers also fell in pieces, but this still did not help, because the number of orc soldiers was so large that Dain Iron Foot even lost his way in it.

He shouted loudly as he attacked with his massive pig's head hammer, "Thorrin! What about my cousins! Thorin! I need you! ”

He was already trapped in the battlefield, and in this case, he could no longer command his Iron Foot Army, so he hoped that Thorin would rush out, take over the Iron Foot Army, and continue to fight with the Iron Foot Army.

As for his own life and death, he didn't really care much.

The dwarves of the lonely mountain on the city wall all looked eagerly at Thorin.

If Thorin didn't move before, it was out of tactical considerations, then now, it's really time to think about tactics.

The brothers below are fighting bloodily to defend the lonely mountain, and how can they stand by and watch in the lonely mountain.

However, Thorin still watched the battle as if he hadn't heard it, frowning and watching the battle with cold eyes.

It's as if the war in front of him has nothing to do with him.

Chili slammed his fist into the sturdy wall, blood running down his fist, and he didn't care.

Under the city walls, Bard said eagerly, "The Iron Foot Army is about to run out!" Diedy-sama! It's time to help! ”

Xu Feng said lightly: "I know, don't worry. ”

In fact, he had been keeping an eye on the situation on the field, and was secretly calculating the number of troops in the entire valley.

There are as many as 100,000 monster armies, and the dwarves, elves, and refugee armies in the valley add up to only 6,000 people, and these 6,000 people can only deal with 60,000 and a half orcs at the limit, and if there are more, it is really impossible to bear.

In order to speed up the attack, Azog at the top of the snow peak ordered the half-orc troops behind to speed in, and when the half-orcs in the Lonely Mountain Valley approached 60,000, Xu Feng immediately gathered his mind and notified the hammer that was ambushed in the valley on the other side.

"Do it!"
