In briefanswer capsule

Sauron's northern stroke fell upon Dale and Erebor while the war was decided in the south. King Brand fell before the Gate of Erebor, and Dáin Ironfoot died standing over his body, wielding his axe in great age until the darkness came. The Dwarves and Men who survived withdrew into the Mountain and were besieged there. Gandalf afterwards counted the battles in Dale among the reasons the North was not left in ruin and ash.
