When Belan's army came to the five hundred meters outside the Iron Fire City, a burst of gunpowder smoke suddenly rose from the city.

A full thirty rockets rose into the air, and although it was daytime, the rockets still made a dazzling trajectory.

Next, like waves rushing down from the mountains, they fell straight in the direction of Beran's army!

"Defense!"

Zagmer let out a loud shout, and the mages immediately reflexively raised their hands and threw spells, and some of the strong ones also swung their swords or shot arrows - but this only detonated the rockets early.

Only a small fraction of the rockets were completely deflected, or flew crooked enough to move away from the large ranks of Beran soldiers, while most of the rest exploded around them or overhead.

For a moment, the first half of Belan's army almost looked like it was about to be overwhelmed by an explosion.

At the head of the city, there was immediately a burst of cheers.

Two minutes ago.

"Come on, every one of you has a share. ”

With a smile that was so kind that he could almost be a salesman, Luo Ming shoved a special torch specially designed to light the fuse into the hands of each nobleman.

Laughing at him like this makes people feel a little fake, but no one dares to question it at the moment.

Only one of them, Sir Deno, asked, "Your Excellency, what are you doing here?"

When Luo Ming was still a knight, a self-proclaimed baron, and led more than a hundred soldiers to fight to expel monsters, he once caught the handle of a certain baron, and then asked the baron to hand over the power of the territory to the Deno Knight to regent, and the Deno Knight secretly lost his sincerity to Luo Ming, so that Luo Ming achieved indirect control over the barony.

Nearly two years later, Deno's loyalty to Lockin became more and more secure, and the baron never regained the power of the land, and was even forced to make Deno a hereditary knight, dividing one of his most fertile lands under Deno's name.

Luo Ming replied with a smile: "Denoqing, let's give the people of Belan a gift together."

It is rare for them to come all the way to us, and they have brought war and death, so we must naturally do our best to be the hosts and give them some weight. ”

"Yes. As he spoke, Deno couldn't help but laugh, and the other nobles also showed knowing smiles.

Soon, they saw the rockets they had ignited with their own hands blow up the Berans.

In fact, this rocket is far from enough to severely damage the Beran army, and it is remarkable that it can kill and wound twenty or thirty people in such a round.

But the scene looked absolutely spectacular, Luo Ming's city, whether it was a nobleman or a soldier, they all laughed together, and for a while, the whole city was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

The Belan people, who were struck with rockets on their heads, were almost angry after hearing this laughter, Luo Ming clearly saw that they fell into a brief chaos, some soldiers subconsciously fled, and some rushed towards the Iron Fire City angrily, ignoring the fact that there was still a full five hundred meters between them, and if he ran this distance, he would not have the strength to fight.

However, the Berans were not so easy to defeat, and they quickly regrouped, and after teaching the deserters and those who wanted to rush out alone, they stuffed them back into the ranks and continued their advance.

Of course, they were much more cautious this time, sending people to watch for whether the city would launch rockets again.

If Luo Ming had enough gunpowder, he was naturally willing to keep firing rockets, even if the hit rate was low, he could rely on the numerical advantage to hit the covering and kill, and blow the Belan people back to the Stone Age in one go.

But it is a pity that he did not have so much gunpowder to squander, and the limited gunpowder had to supply artillery and muskets, and some even thought that this round of shooting was already a waste of gunpowder.

However, this unique meeting gift at least greatly boosted their morale and made the Belan people ugly, which is worth it from this point of view.

Next, it is time to enter the stage of attacking and defending the city.

Soon, however, Luo Ming noticed a fluctuation in the spell, and immediately after, a figure was projected in front of the city.

It's a high-level communication spell that isn't cheap, but it's not surprising that Beran's army can afford it.

And that figure Luo Ming happened to recognize, it was the main general of the Belan army, the Van Shee County Coalition Army, at that time, Luo Ming and Grant Di charged into battle, and they saw him flying into the sky on a vulture horse from a distance.

"Your Excellency Viscount Lo Ming, I am the commander of the Northern Army of the Belan Federation, Colonel Zagmer.

We've faced each other before, but I want you to look at the situation sensibly and see which side is the winner.

I'm sure you're a wise person who should also understand where it's easier to bet and at the same time make a higher profit – fighting a war is about taking risks for the sake of profit, and it's no different from gambling!"

Zagmer exclaimed: "As long as we can pass through the hill of Carlo, then our great Berans will win this battle, and even if you block the road here, the fortified cities of Lothar will be torn open one after another and retreat in the frontal battle!

If you let go of the path now, then I swear that I will never attack you and your territory again, and you can even join the army of Belan and win more benefits together!"

"Boring, I don't think you can promise a little benefit as a fly's head. ”

Luo Ming's anger sank into the dantian, and his voice resounded in all directions: "I once heard an old man say: Some people's eyes are like mice, and they can only see a few inches in front of them. I thought it was just a story, but when I saw you at this moment, I realized that the old man was really a wise man.

Hmph, how can you achieve my goshawk-like foresight, how can you understand my ambitions?

Why don't you get out of here, or if I catch you, I'll throw you and your furry people into boiling water and boil them and burn them to ashes—rats are too dirty to get sick if you don't do that, don't you think?"

There was another burst of laughter from the head of the city, and Zagmer's face contorted, and he gritted his teeth for a while, and then said coldly: "It seems that you are not awake for the time being. I have brought with me an army of four thousand five hundred, which is only the vanguard, and many barons in the county have already surrendered to me, and in a few days there will be an army of twelve thousand.

If you surrender as soon as possible, at least you will still be a viscount, and if you are obsessed, when your small city is broken, you and your people will wait to be trampled into pulp by a thousand horses!"
