Chapter 50 The Brown-robed Mage and Air Strike
The brown robe Redagast follows the plant goddess Yafana. He is the person who knows the best knowledge of nature and animals among all Maiya. He is a friend of animals and can communicate with birds and beasts.
However, Redagast has a disadvantage, that is, he has no scheming. So he was used by Saruman and used birds to collect information for him.
Later, Saruman publicly betrayed Gandalf and imprisoned Gandalf. Only then did Ridagast realize that he had been deceived and immediately fled. He contacted Giant Eagle and rescued Gandalf.
Later, after escaping into the northern part of the Fargon Forest, Redagast encountered the pursuit of a giant spider controlled by Saruman. At the critical moment, he was rescued by Jiang Hai and Gan Yuanyuan.
With the blessing of this old man in brown robe, Jiang Hai and Gan Yuanyuan also established a good relationship with the Giant Eagle clan. Saving Ruidagast is a hidden mission, and Jiang Hai received a reward of 800 survival points. Because Gan Yuanyuan is a druid, she is extremely consistent with Ruidagast, so she received a better reward. Her druid spell has been upgraded to a level and has also obtained a permanent production license for summoning the Giant Eagle troops.
Looking at the two giant eagles flying closer and closer to Aisinger, Jiang Hai was very glad to have always brought Gan Yuanyuan by his side. This siege was entirely dependent on these giant birds of prey.
Otherwise, Jiang Hai would have to spend a lot of resources a few days ago to build siege equipment stations in the base space, and then create expensive siege scale carts to carry out siege battles.
Standing on Osankh Tower and looking at the two giant eagles flying closer and closer, Kim Jong-yun comforted Saruman: "You don't need to worry about these ungrateful birds. After careful preparations a few days ago, Aisinger's defense measures can be said to be perfect. Now the troops guarding Aisinger, strong orcs, fog mountain orcs, and my skeleton archers, have a total of more than 10,000. Such heavy troops, how can a mere two giant eagles change their strength comparison by participating in the battle?"
How many kills can a giant eagle cause in a dive storm? Five people, or ten people?
Even if the giant eagle attacks without resisting, they may not be able to kill Aisinger's defenders when they are exhausted. What's more, so many archers and crossbows are not vegetarians. As long as these giant eagles dare to lower to a height within the range, they will definitely be hit by a head-on attack!
So after seeing the Giant Eagle joining the war, Kim Jong-yun was not too worried and looked like an old god.
However, the giant eagles did not attack Aisinger, but hovered in the sky for a while, as if they were looking for the best route for dive attack.
After a while, the two giant eagles roared and swooped down violently!
Their target was not the walls of Aisinger, but the peaks located not far north of Aisinger.
Here we must explain the geographical situation near the Aisinger Round Field.
This Saruman base camp is located in the north by the Mist Mountains and the Fagong Forest in the east. Going south by the Holy Helmet Valley of the Rohan Fortress, and to the west by the vast Yining Wildlands.
The Aisin River, which originates from the depths of the foggy mountains and is formed by the melting snow water of the mountains, flows down from the peaks in the north of Aisinge, winds south, then turns west at the ferry of the Aisin River, and finally flows into the Belghere Sea.
This river is the key to conquering Aisinger.
In order to use the river water to provide power to the workshop, Saruman smelted weapons and armor, he had already ordered the estuary on the mountain to be blocked and a dam was built.
In the original work, the main reason why the tree man was able to eventually capture Aisinger was that it destroyed the dam, causing mountain torrents to pour down and flooded Aisinger.
Nowadays, Jiang Hai, who is familiar with the original work, will naturally not miss this key point and ignore it.
Of course, Kim Jong-yun and Scar, who are also familiar with "The Lord of the Rings", could not have ignored this fatal flaw. So the two had already built various roadblocks and fortifications on the road leading to the mountain dam and arranged heavy troops there to guard them.
Even if an enemy with a ten-to-100-fold advantage in number attacks, it will be difficult to capture this dam.
However, the dam defenses designed by Kim Jong-yun and Scar are all aimed at humans or tree people. If they face a giant eagle's air raid, they will be almost unprepared.
Seeing two giant eagles flying towards the dam, Kim Jong-yun also realized this, but he was still full of confidence: "The dam is indeed the weakness of Aisinger's defense system. Jiang Hai is not a fool, you can see this. But so what if he has the help of a giant eagle? Can you destroy the solid dam by pecking the beak and twitching the eagle's claws? Haha, whimsical!"
"Ignorance idiot!" Saruman glared at Kim Jong-yun in annoyance, and the shadow of failure was actually covered with the narrow cheeks. It was completely different from the energetic white-robed mage who ordered the army of strong orcs to attack Rohan a few days ago.
"Let your dusty eyes open and take a closer look, what's on the claws of those giant eagles!"
Kim Jong-yun took a closer look and immediately gasped, and the previous confidence had instantly been wiped out.
On the four claws of the two giant eagles, each holding a huge black iron ball. He was so familiar with the appearance of those iron balls that he immediately blurted out and exclaimed: "Ousank Magic Fire!"
Jiang Hai actually owns a bomb made by Saruman!
The eagle claws and bird beaks cannot destroy the dam, but these primitive and powerful gunpowder weapons can.
Jiang Hai seized a total of twelve bombs from the pirates of Anba. When he killed the Ring Spirit Seven, the Defiled Man, he used a total of eight. The remaining four were handed over to the Giant Eagle and used them in this most critical siege battle.
Two giant eagles carrying four bombs dived and flew over the dam at high speed. The fog mountain beast soldiers guarding the dam shot weak arrows one by one, which could not pose any threat to the giant eagle's thick feathers.
After the two giant eagles dropped the bomb perfectly, they rolled up a whirlwind, spread their wings and flew high, and rushed straight into the sky like a sharp sword.
These four bombs were installed with a simple magic firing device through the hands of the brown robe Redagast. As long as the bomb shell is subjected to a huge impact, it will trigger the constant spark technique inside and trigger an explosion.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Four huge explosions rang out one after another, reaching the snow-capped mountains, to the trees-shaded forest, and to the war clouds of Aisinger.
"It's over!" Kim Jong-yun's hands and feet were cold, and the huge failure made him almost unable to stand.
"I didn't expect I would lose to my invention." Saruman was also shrouded in his great frustration, and his heart had long lived up to his ambition to conquer the human world and divide Middle-earth with the Demon Lord Zoro.
The two of them stood on the high Osank Tower and watched the huge explosion destroy the dam. The total amount of river water was rushing down from the top of the mountain like a wild horse.
The huge height drop gives the river water greater energy, making the water extremely fierce.
