This was done both to allow him and his master, Sauron, full control over Rohan as part of the latter's war on the West, but also to more easily allow Saruman himself to dispatch parties of Orcs on routes the [[Fellowship of the Ring]] was likely to take. Such a troop joined by [[Orcs of Mordor]] and "northerners" ambushed the company at [[Amon Hen]], mortally-wounding [[Boromir]] and capturing the halflings [[Meriadoc Brandybuck]] and [[Peregrin Took]].
