After beating up Faramir, Fang Zheng slipped away that same day. Although his original intention was to stop the other party from going to his death, it would be embarrassing for him to stay here after he beat up the son of the Regent in front of so many people in White City, so Fang Zheng left decisively.
Anyway, he had brought the letter from the King of Rohan, and he had a pretty good idea of Sauron's military strength. Calculating the time, it was almost time for Rohan's army to gather, so Fang Zheng turned around and ran back directly.
When Fang Zheng arrived in Dunharrow, it was already the morning of the third day. Upon learning of Fang Zheng's arrival, the old king and the prince immediately came out to greet him.
"You are finally back, sir!"
"Well, I'm back."
Fang Zheng nodded at the two of them, then looked around.
"Where are those guys?"
“…They left.”
Hearing Fang Zheng's question, the prince sighed. He certainly knew who Fang Zheng was referring to.
"Oh, I see."
Fang Zheng certainly knew where the rangers had gone. They went to the Valley of the Dead. Then Aragorn gathered an army of undead who had once defected in the name of the King of Gondor, and then fought back to the White City and defeated Sauron's army.
To be honest, this is the part that Fang Zheng dislikes the most in the movie, because before this, there was no undead army, and then suddenly the Elf King came and gave Aragorn a sword, and then Aragorn took the sword and went to summon the undead army. It feels like a forced and illogical part. Everyone was going to fight to the death until the last moment, but suddenly you got the upper hand and summoned a group of invincible soldiers who were invulnerable to swords and guns and not afraid of sunlight.
They also said that the next era would be the human era, but they were eventually saved by a group of undead. So it’s more accurate to say that it was the era of the undead, right?
Do you want a Lich King?
If you want to show the courage of mankind, then show it to the end. Even if the armies of all the countries in Middle-earth suddenly gather to deal with Sauron, it is more reliable and reasonable than an army of the undead.
In the end, you humans still can't defeat Sauron and have to rely on the Undead Army to cheat?
What kind of human epic is this?
Of course, Fang Zheng also understood the meaning of this plot design. If it wasn't written this way, Aragorn would be useless in the War of the Ring. His "royal blood" was used here to subdue the undead. Otherwise, the value of the last heir of the royal family would be even lower than Liu Bei's "descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan". It was just a piece of waste paper.
The kind that's too hard to even use to wipe your butt.
After all, in the Western world, this theory of bloodline is popular. Look at the regent. Just because he does not acknowledge this theory, Gandalf calls him a despicable and shameless villain who is greedy for power.
It seems as if only heirs of royal blood are qualified to be rulers, and anyone else who dares to take the throne is a disrespectful thief.
Although Fang Zheng had never met the Regent, he still agreed with what Rohamir said to Aragorn in the first film: "Gondor does not need a king."
Fang Zheng didn't hate Aragorn, but he was disgusted by the setting that "only royal blood can save the world", so Fang Zheng planned to change the way - well, if Aragorn came to Minas Tirith with the army of the undead and then found that Sauron had been defeated, that scene would definitely be very interesting.
"Forget it, forget about them. I brought back information about Minas Tirith. The situation is serious."
Fang Zheng thought of this and didn't say anything more. He quickly led King Rohan and his party into the tent and began to tell them about his discovery.
At the same time, Sauron's army surrounded Minas Tirith, and a great battle began.
"It was the right decision for Fang Zheng not to let you leave."
Standing on the city wall, watching both sides launch catapults to attack each other, Gandalf wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and looked at Faramir beside him. The Regent King had lost his mind. After seeing his royal city surrounded by Sauron's army, he screamed for people to protect the city. However, Faramir was knocked unconscious by Fang Zheng, and the reinforcements from Rohan did not arrive. In desperation, the Regent King shouted for everyone to escape, and then he jumped off the high platform and fell to his death in front of everyone.
At that time, the whole Minas Tirith was in chaos. Fortunately, Gandalf turned the tide. He first stabilized the army, and then awakened Faramir. After seeing Faramir's appearance, the originally chaotic army finally stabilized and began to defend the royal city under Faramir's command.
If Faramir died... then it would be the end.
"What a pity, it would be better if he could stay here."
Standing on the wall, Faramir smiled bitterly when he heard Gandalf's words. Although he was also grieving for his father's death, Faramir was clearly aware of his responsibilities, so even though he was very sad, he still pulled himself together and commanded the army to fight against Sauron.
For a while, the two sides were deadlocked, because the other side did not send out the Ringwraiths this time. Apparently, Fang Zheng's previous action of killing two Ringwraiths in a row had completely shocked Sauron's army, so this time they did not send out the Ringwraiths to assist the army in attacking the city as before, but let the Orc army go on their own.
After all, there were tens of thousands of orcs, but only nine Ringwraiths - oh, now there were only seven left.
After all, the Ringwraiths killed by Fang Zheng had their souls and spirits destroyed, and they could not be deader.
This frightened the Ringwraiths, they simply could not understand why someone could kill them, and completely destroy them. So now they dare not show up, and it is precisely because of this that Minas Tirith can still hold on under the attack of the Orcs.
After all, simply defending the city would be beneficial even if the number of people was small. As long as they held out until the Rohan reinforcements arrived, the difficulties would be solved. It was the same before. As long as the Ringwraiths did not appear, Faramir's army would not be defeated so quickly. Their evil magic could undermine the morale of the soldiers, making them full of fear and unwilling to fight. This was the biggest problem.
Until now, the Ringwraiths had not appeared, and it was obvious that they were afraid of Fang Zheng's power. If they found out that Fang Zheng was not in the city, they would probably launch an attack immediately. By then, who knows what would happen.
Of course, the best scenario would be that the Ringwraiths would not appear before the Rohan reinforcements arrived. If that were the case, then they would still have the strength to fight.
Now it depends on how long the other party can endure.
Suppressing his inner uneasiness, Faramir looked forward again.
"Immediately evacuate women and children, and move everyone to a safe place! Keep fighting, hold on, Rohan reinforcements will be here soon!!"
Unfortunately, Faramir's expectations never came true.
It was obvious that the Orcs' failure to capture Minas Tirith after a long siege did not satisfy their rulers. Just as dark clouds covered the entire White City, sharp and shrill screams appeared again. Then, the Ringwraiths riding the dark beasts emerged from the clouds and pounced on the royal city.
With the appearance of the Ringwraiths, the defense of the royal city finally began to loosen.
Amid the screams of the ferocious beasts, the soldiers lost their will and determination to fight. They huddled together with their heads in their hands, resisting the piercing screams in pain.
At the same time, the Orcs also cooperated with the Ringwraiths to launch another offensive. They launched a huge battering ram and hit the heavy and solid gate of Minas Tirith with force. The extremely solid gate finally couldn't hold on under the attack of the battering ram, and began to crack with a wailing sound.
"The city gate can no longer be defended!"
Seeing this scene, Faramir made a decisive decision.
"Everyone evacuate to the second floor immediately, place rubble, and pour kerosene!!!"
Under Faramir's command, all the soldiers quickly evacuated. They poured kerosene on the ground and then pushed down huge rocks to block the passage on the first floor.
When the battering ram broke through the first layer of the city gate and the orcs rushed into the White City, what they saw were countless rockets flying towards them.
The burning flames instantly ignited the kerosene spilled on the ground, and in the blink of an eye, the entire first floor was completely engulfed in a sea of fire. Of course, the orcs in it were not spared.
"Huh...luckily I was able to block it."
Faramir also sighed. He knew how powerful the Ringwraiths were, so he made several preparations to deal with them. After all, their only goal now was to delay time and try to defend the city before the Rohan reinforcements arrived. So he had to adopt this scorched earth strategy. In any case, the flames and the boulders would not be frightened by the magic of the Ringwraiths, nor would they flee in panic. From a certain perspective, this was obviously much more reliable than soldiers.
However, this has reached its limit.
Orcs poured into the city like a tide, and the soldiers of Minas Tirith began to retreat again. Although the scorched earth strategy produced certain effects, the opposite side also had threats such as catapults and Ringwraiths. After losing the threat of the soldiers stationed on the city walls, the catapults of the Orc army suddenly began to exert their power. Pieces of stones flew out and hit the towers and walls of the White City, turning them into tattered wreckage.
Just as Faramir was considering what to do next, suddenly, a loud horn sounded, covering the whistling and shouting on the battlefield and echoing into the sky.
“That’s…!”
Hearing the horn sound, Faramir's eyes lit up. He turned around quickly and saw a dark army appearing on the other side at the far end of the horizon.
"It's Rohan's reinforcements!!"
Seeing this scene, the soldiers on the city wall immediately cheered excitedly.
"It seems we have arrived at the right time."
Looking at the besieged White City in front of him, Fang Zheng whistled and then looked at the old king beside him.
"Your Majesty, are you ready? Let's go... time waits for no one."
"Rohan Cavalry!!"
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, the old king suddenly drew out his sword and shouted.
"charge!!!"
“Wuwuwu——!!”
The charge sounded.
The next moment, the Rohan cavalry galloped down the hillside like a tide and rushed towards the army of Sauron in front.
That's right.
Looking at this scene, Fang Zheng nodded in satisfaction. Cavalry requires speed and sudden attacks. Talking a bunch of nonsense like in the movies and giving others time to change their formation and defend is simply stupid.
If you want to boost morale, you can talk nonsense at any time. Why do you have to say it in front of the enemy?
Then, it's time for me to take action.
Fang Zheng collected his thoughts and looked forward, then he stepped on the accelerator. The next moment, a black shadow shot out from the cavalry and rushed towards the orc army!
At this moment, the Orc army also discovered the galloping cavalry and hurriedly wanted to change their formation, but Fang Zheng certainly would not give them this opportunity.
"Let's set off some colorful fireworks!"
While shouting, Fang Zheng pressed the button at hand, and then he saw the back of the black motorcycle suddenly unfold, and dozens of micro missiles flew out with white smoke, rushing towards the orc army in front.
“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!”
The next moment, a series of explosions mixed with flames suddenly emerged from the orc army, completely disrupting the orcs' already chaotic formation.
