That would be the Nirnaith Arnoediad, my gruff and diminuitive friend, a day the Eldar remember well.
The Dwarves of Belegost fought there, and their king Azaghal was responsible for wounding Glaurung, causing him to flee the field, as well as the remainder of the dragon host, who fled with their chief.
