I was under the impression that Elrond *saw* the forces, but did not take part in any actual fighting. ("Beleriand was ablaze with the glory of their arms"; it was hardly a sneaky movement of troops!) But then, I was always of the impression (largely because of that quote) that this was an INCREDIBLY huge army (millions at the very least, probably many millions), whose marching toward Angband would have covered most of Beleriand.
