You would be in  a siege for months, at least. And Glosur would be on the way with all the Dwarven forces in Middle-Earth as soon as he heard. Gondor and Rohan would arrive at a forced march pace. The Woodland Realm would crush you from behind with Erebor slaughtering you in the front. Rhun could not possibly defeat the Lonely Mountain quickly enough to not be slaughtered by Glosur or Thranduil. Go back to a siege, prepare your rearguard, and accept the facts. Thank you, sir. The lord of the east sent a letter to the lords of western middle earth stating, they would not let us pass. There is a horror brewing in the east that rotted jungles and withered plains; corrupted men and twisted their bodies and minds. Faced with total annihilation we fled, only to be stopped by those selfish northmen and the pathetically greedy dwarves. Please let us pass, we only wish to live in peace away from the darkness that was once our home. But, it seems that the dark power assisted us with its power and used us as unwitting servants. Please let us pass.
