Bruce stood on the roof of the house, watching through his telescope by the faint morning light of the sky, observing the movements of the steppe people, who were sealed in the labyrinthine city, looting every material that seemed valuable, like a swarm of greedy locusts.

Even the small mirrors on the women's dressers, which are not very well made, will attract their coaxing.

These urban labyrinths couldn't hold them back for long, but they could keep the Prairie in a looting mess, and even Bruce deliberately threw a lot of shiny things on the ground as they retreated.

As soon as they gather in this area, the more people there are, the better, and immediately they will receive the gift that has been prepared for them for three days.

Bruce didn't participate in the defense of the city for the next two days, he was busy with this matter, and the elder Sean had already had a premonition, so he arranged this matter to Bruce, the only member of the third-generation family who stayed in Gokan City by mistake.

Matthew tried to send Bruce away halfway and ordered him to go to the Eastern Defense Line to defect to Earl Brad, but Bruce saw through his intentions and refused at the expense of disobeying military orders.

On the first day of battle, Bruce was unfortunately shot through the thigh by a crossbow gun, and if it weren't for Chris's push in the critical moment, if it weren't for the special armor on his body that was hard enough to even activate the ability of the wall, his entire thigh would have been split in two.

The wound was hastily treated, and as soon as he returned to the city wall with a limp, he received this order.

It has not only the autograph of the Marquis of Noe, but also the signature of his own uncle, Matthew.

And now, the two men who had left him this order had fallen on the flaming city wall in the distance, where not only his own uncle, but also countless uncles and uncles who had watched him grow up, and he could even name most of them.

Bruce looked at the steppe man who was getting closer and closer, and then at the lion castle in the distance, not knowing how to explain to his cousin in the future.

Suddenly, there was a burst of exclamation from the noise of the steppe people, and it was obvious that something had been discovered.

Even if the greatest results had not yet been achieved, Bruce gave the order decisively.

In the twilight of the morning, ten bright fires rushed westward from the center of the four-story building, just like the original Red Moon Pass, and countless dull explosions echoed in this city made of wood and brick.

There were already large quantities of firewood, coal, and oil that they had piled up.

If it weren't for the fact that every house in Gaokan City was filled with two kinds of fuel besides fire oil, I am afraid that with their only 2,000 troops and 10,000 people, they would not have been able to complete such a vast project in two days.

All they had to do was to connect each of their firewood houses to their debris-laden gates with fire oil, and to fill the ruins of houses at every larger intersection with oil cans.

For this reason, he even emptied the coal yard of the railway station outside the east gate, but even so, there were still a lot of gaps.

The fire gradually lit up in the labyrinthine city, and the smoke billowed out, just as every morning the housewives would light a fire to cook, only this time they were going to set fire to a small half of the city.

As the fire grew louder and louder, the prairie people trapped inside screamed and frantically searched for a way out.

Even with the guidance of the heavenly eyes, these steppe people have been running back and forth in the complex labyrinth of cobwebs, chaotic.

Moreover, the buildings of the Wards were too tall for these dwarf prairie people, and they could not even climb over the walls without the help of ladders.

The fire was never caused by flames, but by smoke, and the damp quilts and furs that had been deliberately piled up on the coal and firewood emitted a choking smoke from the blazing fire, not to mention the fact that Bruce had added a lot of phosphorus powder to them.

Bruce licked his finger and put it in the air, fortunately, it was a southeast wind this morning, but unfortunately the wind was not strong.

The confusion grew, and some people found their way in the right direction, only to be stuck behind the burning wreckage.

Some retreated in the direction of the city gates, but were blocked by the follow-up troops.

Some people are looking for water, but they don't find a bucket suitable for it.

There are also teams from different tribes that collide head-on, drawing swords for a chance to escape.

A quarter of an hour later, the fire grew bigger and bigger, and a monstrous fire that spread ten blocks unavoidably ignited.

The intense steaming heat even dispersed a certain range of smoke.

Standing on the roof, Bruce couldn't see the tragic scene of the corpses lying all over the street and in the room.

But he could mentally imagine the figures hiding in wells, rivers, and even latrines, begging the god Rondo to save them, and then being charred by the raging fire.

This filled his heart with pleasure, so he let the fire be a little more violent, burn away their sins, and use their souls to pay tribute to the soldiers who died to defend the city of Gaokan.

Sadly, there seems to be a very alert commander among these steppe people, who spotted the trap in time and prevented most of the fratricidal killing that occurred in the chaos.

This made this epic fire incomplete, but it only burned less than 120,000 people, including accidental injuries such as stampedes.

However, at this moment, Bruce didn't know the specific number, he just pursed the corners of his mouth, glanced coldly at the burning city not far away, and turned away.

As the only remaining descendant of the Four Masters in Gaokan City, he still had a lot to do, many, many things, and for the first time, he truly realized how great the responsibility on his shoulders was.

When Philip got off the train with his army and saw the east gate of Gaokan City from a distance, his heart chuckled.

Although there was no trace of the steppe people in the bunker outside the east gate, they could clearly see the billowing smoke burning inside the city, the giant birds flying in the sky, and the shouts of killing behind the city gate, and the eyes of the soldiers who lived in Gaokan City instantly turned red.

"Kalitan, do as planned, please. Philip turned his head to look at the female knight, although he had temporarily taken over the command, but there was still due respect, after all, these were nominally the princess's private army.

Kalitan nodded, closed her mask, and rushed out with her 2,000 heavily armored knights and another 5,000 heavy riders.

In just 300 meters, these well-trained women coordinated the originally scattered formations in the movement to form a huge arrow.

Philip gave Sophia a kiss as a farewell, and flew to the city wall on Arthur.

Five or six thousand steppe people were crowding the streets behind the city gates, and thousands of entangled corpses along the way.

Hundreds of warriors of Gaokan City resisted stubbornly while dodging the claws and beaks flying in the sky, using the few remaining defenses.

There were only thirty or forty soldiers left in the city gate, and under the leadership of a bearded officer, even though they were scarred, they still huddled in the doorway, and they did not retreat.

Philip swiped past a giant bird and blew the bird's head with a single stab of his rifle, freeing several warriors from the giant claws.

Although his legendary-level broadsword was found, it was already somewhat deformed, so it was replaced with a mounted spear.

Compared to the broadsword, the length and usage of this thing is more suitable for an empty knight.

This time he was very well prepared, not only riding a spear, but also carrying a bow and arrows.

Then he swooped into the steppe people beneath the city gates, and the silver beast with great momentum knocked the red-skinned dwarfs on their backs.

And the cavalry spear in his hand also stabbed all the way, drinking the blood of the steppe people, and in the blink of an eye, he forced their formation back dozens of meters.

The bearded officer and his men rushed to the city gate with their men reflexively, they had already received the news and were waiting here, and at this moment they almost burst into tears when they saw Philip's figure.

Reinforcements, they had been waiting for reinforcements for several days, and finally returned, but even if it was a day earlier, no one had the courage to tell him the bad news at this moment.

They lifted the huge wooden bolts, and the warriors on the walls shook the huge handles with all their might.

In the midst of the loud rumbling, the two-meter-thick gate, made of iron and wood, was raised up a gap.

When he was more than five meters tall, Kalitan took the lead, just in time to reach the door, and rushed in.

Thousands of steppe people were like helpless children in front of them, unable to organize a decent resistance, so they were killed and abandoned their armor.

Philip flew in the sky, looking at the familiar city below that had been changed beyond recognition, if it weren't for the tall soul monument outside the temple, I'm afraid he really couldn't believe that this city that was burning everywhere was the indestructible steel fortress in his impression.

Seeing that Philip was a little lost, Afu casually blocked a few bows and arrows, and then volleyed a rushing eagle knight into the air.

The two of them joined forces to hunt down those steppe people's sky knights in the sky, and the only thing that was a little troublesome was the four huge golden eagles and a black flying dragon.

The golden eagle looked larger than a wyvern, not to mention a unicorn, with a hooked beak and sharp claws tied to a sharp blade, and the feathers that were full of meters long were like steel knives, emitting a cold golden light.

But this time Philip not only changed his weapon, but also had a powerful companion who would not be as embarrassed as he was last time.

Arthur fought side by side with his mother, not to mention how much he was squeezed, and a golden arrow of light passed, causing a golden eagle to explode into a golden feather in midair.

And Afu also brandished a giant shield to stop the attack of the flying dragon, and the long jagged beak squeaked and left a long dent on the shield, and then Afu cut off the entire wing with a sword, and rolled and fell with the air knight on it screaming.

Philip manipulated Arthur to dodge the golden eagle's pounce with a flash, his huge claws slicing in front of his eyes, so close that he could even see the hard golden scales on it.

With a spear in his hand, a thrust opened a bloody hole in the golden eagle's lower abdomen, and red blood sprinkled all over the sky.

He flashed to the side of the other golden eagle again, swept away the feathered arrows that were fired at Arthur, and raised his spear flat.
