.

How about the other party agreeing to our terms? Colin Florent couldn't wait to ask as soon as the messenger returned to the city.

Not only him, but all the members of the Florent family also showed nervous and expectant eyes.

After all, for them, every time they take away more property means more hope for a comeback, and it means that the homeless life can be a little better.

But unfortunately, the young messenger shook his head with a wry smile and replied: I'm sorry, my lord, the other party has no intention of negotiating at all. And he also made it clear that we must surrender unconditionally, otherwise when the city is broken, all Florens will be destroyed. Members of the family will be executed for treason.

How dare he!!!

Damn! Is this guy a lunatic!

Our noble blood can be traced back to the daughter of Garth Blue Hand! Closer to the family of gardeners than Tyrell! We are the true masters of the Reach!

Show some color to this ignorant young man!

Yes! Show him some color! Then he will understand how to respect an ancient family with a long history!

...

For a while, the hall was filled with all kinds of abuse and clamor, as if everyone had selectively forgotten how bad their current situation was.

Seeing these completely hysterical relatives, Colin Florent sighed helplessly and yelled: Enough! Since the other party wants war! Then we will give him war! The Florent family can decline! It can perish! But it must not tarnish the honor that has lasted for thousands of years.

That's right! We have strong city walls and fortresses! Even if there are a large number of opponents, it's not so easy to attack. When they suffer, they will naturally take the initiative to negotiate with us. A knight echoed confidently.

In this way, under the command of acting city lord Colin Florent, less than 400 soldiers were placed in the most important positions in Brightwater City, especially the towering arrow towers, each equipped with more than 20 bows and arrows. There are even four bed crossbows produced in the academy, even knights in heavy armor will be instantly penetrated.

Most people believe that with just a few condescending arrow towers and sufficient food reserves, even if tens of thousands of troops want to attack, they will have to pay a heavy price.

The reason why the feudal lords of Westeros were keen to build tall and strong castles,

It is because the castle has a strong protective ability, which can offset the gap in the number of people. It often only needs one-fifth to one-tenth of the opponent's army to firmly protect the safety of himself and his family.

In any case, the larger the army, the greater the consumption of supplies. Once the war drags on for too long, many hidden contradictions and troubles may be exposed.

For Colin Floren, what he needs to do is not to defeat the army with more than 2,000 people outside the city, but to delay the time as much as possible and wait for the situation to turn around.

To know the reason why nobles are nobles, in addition to holding land, there is also a complex network of relationships.

Take the Florent family as an example. This generation alone has married with influential families such as the old town old man Leighton Hightower and Randall Tali. Although this relationship is not enough for them to keep their territories and titles, they can. It's okay to ask for asylum at a critical moment.

It is with this confidence that Colin Florent chose war without hesitation, rather than unconditional surrender.

Zhang Cheng, who was far outside the city, saw this scene and couldn't help laughing: Hahahaha! I didn't expect these idiots to cooperate so well! I really want to know what gave them the courage to resist

Sir, the main members of the Florent family have all fled back to Dragonstone with Stannis, so Brightwater City should not have received the specific news of the Battle of Blackwater, so their knowledge of you is limited to the army outside. , not including you. Blanco explained with a smile on his face.

Perhaps in normal times he would worry about the cost of besieging a fortified castle.

But now, he only felt that the people on the castle were very pitiful and pathetic, and it wouldn't be long before the other party witnessed an attack far beyond his comprehension.

Well, the ignorant are fearless. I hope they can maintain this spirit of resistance. After that, Zhang Cheng waved to a mercenary who swore allegiance to him.

The latter didn't say a word, and immediately stepped forward, knelt down on one knee and bowed with an almost fanatical attitude: Sir, is there anything I can do for you?

Go, remove the box with the seal on the car, and then find some sharpshooters. I will destroy those obstructing arrow towers first. Zhang Cheng ordered calmly.

As you wish! The mercenary nodded, turned and disappeared into the crowd.

After a while, he returned to the place with a wooden box with a white seal, followed by five archers with long bows.

Gently tearing open the seal with his own hands, Zhang Cheng opened the lid directly, revealing the neatly arranged glass tubes inside, each of which was filled with a sealed red liquid.

You don't need to ask to know that these are all dragon flames he made in his spare time, and even a drop can instantly melt steel and rock.

You're going to... Blanco shuddered obviously and asked cautiously.

Ah! That's right! I want Longyan to burn all the soldiers on the arrow tower. I believe that after one round, the Florent family will understand what a huge mistake they made. Zhang Cheng said, While taking out one of the bottles, tied it to the arrow with a rope, and handed it to a shooter.

This young man in his early twenties was no nonsense, and quickly approached the city wall under the protection of two shield-bearing infantrymen. Before the defenders could react to what was going on, he fired a deadly arrow.

hum!

With the sound of the bowstring vibrating, the arrow crossed a graceful parabola and fell precisely into the arrow tower on the east side.

When the glass bottle collided with the rock and shattered, the red liquid immediately came into contact with the air, releasing a dazzling and bright flame.

next second...

boom!

The entire arrow tower turned into a sea of ​​fire!

Everyone standing inside was devoured by the flames without exception, and some of them couldn't bear the pain of being burned alive, and jumped down from a height of dozens of meters and fell to their death.

After just ten seconds, the screams and wailing of the infiltrating people stopped.

Those with keen observation can even observe that the black rocks around the arrow tower actually have a trace of redness and melting!

Hehe, what a beautiful firework, continue, don't stop, and burn the remaining arrow towers as well. With a cruel smile on his face, Zhang Cheng urged without looking back...
