commands Thranduil

I was watching the extended edition of BotFA today and noticed that Thranduil shouted something that sounded like 'let go' to his army, but it didn't appear in the subtitles. Before that, he also shouted something of which I'm sure is in elvish, right after Dain said: Bring the goats. I was wondering if someone knew what he shouted and what it means.

thank you

He shouted Leitho!, which means "Release!" in Sindarin. He was telling his archers to shoot (lit. release their arrows). I'm not sure about the other thing you mentioned, though.
