As Ji Yao left in shame, everyone finally took their seats.
"Cough," Gandalf calmed down, cast a glance at Carl, and said slowly, "Then let's discuss how to resist."
The official business of this trip was brought to the table by everyone.
Since the fall of Minas Ithil, the strong orcs have not stopped moving.
Outside Osgiliath, the old capital of Gondor, the shadow of the Witch-king of Angmar has appeared.
An army of strong orcs led by the Witch-king of Angmar is launching a tentative attack on it.
And the strong orc army issued from the Black Gate-Monong column in the north of Mordor, after stepping out of the Black Gate, also divided into two groups.
All the way, led by Saruman, the millions of troops under his command passed through the death swamp, and now they have reached the Rohan fortress – Odeburgh.
The other way is led by Borg, a strong orc cultivated by Sauron.
Borg, the son of Azog, was a half-orc who escaped from the dark secret that day.
He has been transformed into a monster with a powerful body and a ferocious temperament by Sauron's black magic.
But the army he led was heading towards Lonely Mountain.
It seems to fulfill the obsession of his father, Azog, and also to take revenge.
Today, the brownfield he passed through was scorched by some creatures, and all the places they passed had turned into scorched earth.
Ladies and gentlemen, "If you have any good plans, please bring them up," said Gandalf.
"There are three armies in total, and each army has more than 3 million strong orcs, how can we handle it?" Yioumond couldn't help but say.
When everyone heard the words, they couldn't help but be silent.
The combined strength of their current coalition forces is only over one million people, which is nearly ten times worse than the nearly ten million troops of the strong orcs.
"It's better, let's hit the force first, fight the battle quickly, annihilate the strong orc army in one battlefield, and then send troops to support other areas, so there may be a chance of victory." One person suddenly suggested.
"This is a good idea." Several people nodded in agreement.
"I see, no." Gandalf shook his head.
"Why?" Everyone wondered.
"Orc armies are not so easy to deal with," Gandalf explained, "The strong orc leader who attacked Gondor this time is the Witch King Angmar. It is extremely powerful, and it also masters dark secret techniques."
"Its subordinates are sitting on the army of dark flying beasts, plus the strong orc army armed with Dao teeth, it is not that simple to defeat."
"And the strong orc commander who attacked Rohan," Gandalf paused, "was Saruman."
"That guy is even more shrewd. If he senses the movements of our army, he will definitely retreat to the Black Gate defense. At that time, we will have nothing to do."
"And the strong orc army that went to the Lonely Mountain not only has the hater Borg, but also has the remaining eight fallen Nazgul. They are also tricky guys."
"Moreover, the road to Gushan is long and there are many mountains and forests. It takes time for us to get there, and it is impossible to achieve a quick decision."
"And once our combined forces are dragged down by them, the rest of the area will be violently attacked by the strong orcs.
"At that time, cities that have lost their troops will be in a hard fight, or even fall, and the fire of war will also burn among the civilians."
"With the cruelty of the strong orcs, it is conceivable that the lost city will be like a... cruel scene…"
Everyone was silent and frowned again; this is indeed trouble.
What can we do about it?
The crowd began to discuss again.
In the meantime, some people proposed to send wandering soldiers to contain the strong orc army, some people proposed to disperse the residents in front, and retreat to a more fortified city, but in the end, they were all denied.
Although these ideas can be temporarily relieved, they are of no benefit to the war situation.
Elrond looked at the performance of the people who offered advice, and withdrew his eyes, but saw Carl who was silent.
At this moment, Carl still seemed to be wandering, which made Elrond unhappy.
He has endured Carl for a long time, and he didn't say anything about hooking up with his daughter as soon as he came, and now he doesn't say a word, doesn't he underestimate him?
Think about it,
Carl "I don't know what you have in mind." Elrond asked Carl involuntarily.
Everyone couldn't help but turn their attention to Carl, and they also wanted to hear what the king of this powerful country and the famous dragon slayer would have in mind.
"Insight? Carl" came back to his senses, and then said as a matter of course, "What do you need to say? Just hit me!"
"Beat?" Elrond frowned slightly, didn't he just say it? They couldn't beat the army of strong orcs.
Everyone also looked at Carl curiously.
Carl knew everyone's doubts, so he explained: "Of course, it's not a hard fight, you have to pay attention to the method."
"What way?
"Since you already know that there are a large number of strong orcs, why do you need to ask?" Carl shook his head helplessly.
"What's the meaning?"
