Chapter 159 Dignity, Honor and Responsibility
"Liang Yue, did I do something wrong in this matter..shung"
Liang Yue's previous deal with Thranduil went smoothly
There are steps that he sent over on his own initiative, and the promise to return the white gems without compensation afterwards, and all Thranduil has to pay is to let Thorin and others leave and allow the dwarves to pass through the land of the forest kingdom.
This kind of transaction is almost no different from what the owner of the forest kingdom made to Sorin before.
The only difference is that there is an extra Liang Yue as a mediator between the two parties.
Not only did he keep his face, he got what he wanted, and he didn't have to face the stinky and stubborn dwarves anymore, Thranduil readily agreed at that time.
Correspondingly, although Sorin felt a little uncomfortable at that time, he even had a faint feeling of being betrayed.
He wanted to rush up to stop and question Liang Yue on the spot, but he was stopped in time by the white-haired dwarf beside him.
At this time, everyone has successfully left the elf settlement and started on the road again along the river.
Compared with the original plot, the dwarves were trapped in the elf dungeon for a whole night, and Bilbo came out the next day by using the invisibility ability of the Lord of the Rings.
At this time, they only stayed there for more than half an hour.
In this way, after coming out of the Elven Cave, everyone walked along the river all the way, their steps were light, their fighting spirit was high, and they all appeared to be in a good mood.
Only Sorin was keeping his head down, and he looked preoccupied and absent-minded all the way.
After a while, the dwarf prince suddenly raised his head, looked at Liang Yue at the side, and asked what was in his heart.
"Did you do something wrong? This should be related to your identity and your positioning of yourself, Sorin."
When Liang Yue heard the words, she understood the other party's thoughts in her heart, so she patiently said to this very energetic and stubborn dwarf prince.
"Why, why do you say that"
Sorin seemed a little confused at this time, but he might never have thought about this kind of argument that almost everyone can chat a few words in modern society, that the ass determines the head.
"If you're still a prince, then it's okay to pursue glory, insist on the justice in your heart, and stick to your own views on past affairs.
After all, King Thranduil did make a mistake in sending troops to support the dwarves. From his previous words, I can somewhat see that he intends to compromise with you.
But if you really want to be a king, you must also learn to compromise. "
In fact, it is not just a prince, or a king or something, as long as it is an individual, as long as he wants to survive in the crowd, then he will more or less face the situation of compromise.
It's inevitable
"Why is justice not important to a king? The dignity of the ethnic group, our oaths and covenants, and the betrayal of the elves against us, how can we give up?"
After hearing what he said, Thorin immediately retorted with his eyes narrowed.
As a proud, pure-blood dwarf prince, he certainly has his own pride, and even in some cases, he values dignity and glory more than his own life
"Because for a king, justice and personal dignity are indeed not the most important, and the status of hatred is even lower. Responsibility is what you should value most."
"responsibility"
"Let's put it this way, why did you think of leading an expeditionary force with only a dozen people, and then came all the way to Gushan for what reason?
Don't tell me that you are only for your own glory and the right to be in that position, Thorin, because of the collapse of the kingdom below the mountain, a large number of dwarves finally became displaced and had to leave their homes.
They were forced to wander and were plundered by foreign races, and your people suffered heavy losses. Therefore, recapture the lonely mountain from the evil dragon and rectify the homeland.
Re-establishing a stable land for your people is the responsibility you should fulfill. In addition, any personal dignity, honor, or hatred.
Or the betrayal in the past, etc., should be temporarily put aside, you can engrave these in your heart, or wait until one day in the future.
After the dwarf kingdom is strong enough, it will look for those former opponents to regain its dignity, but now is not the time. "
"You mean to say that my main responsibility now is to take back the lonely mountain as soon as possible, so that my people can have a homeland to rely on again, and everything else can be temporarily put aside."
"Of course, when doing things, we must distinguish between the most important and the less important, Sorin, especially when doing big things."
Looking at the dwarf prince in front of him, whose eyes are gradually becoming brighter and hotter, Liang Yue smiled slightly, and this fellow secretly thought in his heart, could it be that he also has the talent to hide his words?
In other words, the race of dwarves is too old-fashioned, and only at a certain moment can they listen to other people's advice
"You're right Liang Yue, the most important thing for us dwarves now is to regain our former land, everything else is not important, thank you for what you did for us dwarves before.
That white gem, I think I will return it to Thranduil myself after taking back the Lonely Mountain."
The conversation between Liang Yue and Sorin did not deliberately avoid other people, so naturally they were all heard by the surrounding dwarves.
From Sorin's words now, it can be seen that his persuasion to the dwarf prince and the answers to his doubts have obviously played some benign effects.
This is definitely good news for dwarves
Looking at Thorin's brighter eyes and his more mature demeanor, the dwarves were naturally more satisfied with their leader in their hearts.
Incidentally, the status of Liang Yue's side in their hearts, of course, has risen even higher.
If we say that when the dwarves looked at him before, there was kindness and trust in their eyes as teammates, as well as a trace of awe for this guy's supernatural abilities.
So now, when they look at Liang Yue, they have begun to respect from the bottom of their hearts
"Whoosh" "Ah"
At this moment, a short sound of piercing the sky suddenly sounded in the distance, followed by a hoarse scream.
Everyone immediately looked over after hearing the reputation, but saw that Arwen, who was originally on the outskirts, was responsible for the task of detecting the sentry. At this time, he found the trace of the enemy, so he drew his arrow and shot.
It directly shot through the neck of a half-orc hidden behind a piece of dry grass tens of meters away
"It's an ambush by orcs, pay attention to concealment, and prepare to fight"
Seeing this, Sorin immediately pulled out the beast-biting sword on his waist, and at the same time, he did not forget to shout to his surrounding teammates.
Afterwards, the group of dwarves would naturally not stay where they were, and obediently accepted the orc's surprise attack.
As a group of well-trained and proven fighters, they clenched the weapons in their hands almost immediately, and quickly hid behind the nearby bunker.
Sure enough, after realizing that the ambush on his side was exposed, the half-orcs who were hiding in the area in front of the river all showed up one after another.
After an unpleasant roar, some of them rushed forward with rough blades in their hands, while others drew their bows and arrows from behind, and began to launch a surprise attack with bows and arrows.
At this time, Liang Yue naturally wouldn't let Arwen, who was on guard in the distance, fight alone, so she folded her arms and took out an assault rifle from the storage space.
As soon as the whole person hid behind a big tree, he was about to launch a counterattack.
However, at this moment, Liang Yue suddenly saw Bilbo Baggins who was at a loss and was hiding behind a rock.
The little hobbit obviously couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the people around him now. He was holding the dagger he had given him back then, and his face was eager to try.
But he knew very clearly that he was not expected to charge forward on the battlefield, so the little hobbit at this time seemed very entangled and felt a little bit lost.
Seeing this, Liang Yue blinked her eyes twice, then flipped her sleeves and took out another spruce shield from the storage space, which was enough to cover Bilbo's entire body, and threw it to the other party .
His idea is also very simple, that is, since you can't be an attacker, why not focus on defense
And Liang Yue herself, after quickly checking the firearm in her hand, officially entered the fighting state.
