I picked up the dragon girl at the beginning and I used artillery fire to liberate the other world

The battle situation in Star City was also played out in Istria City. Gray commanded the continuous bombardment and soon annexed the small city.

At the position of the 001rd Company, nd Regiment, st Battalion, Division, William leaned against a big tree, took out a small bottle of white wine from his arms, opened the liquor and took a sip. The spicy wine went down his throat and into his stomach, dispelling a trace of chill.

"Great! Today, when the residents of Istria saw that group of nobles being publicly executed, they all applauded!" He laughed and handed the drink in his hand to Ivan.

"Yeah! I don't know if you heard it, but those people are calling us heroes. I can't believe that an ordinary soldier like me will be called a hero one day."

Ivan wiped his mouth with his sleeve, opened his legs wide, put his hands on his knees, and looked relaxed and comfortable.

"All this was brought about by His Highness. They should thank His Highness Bai Yan even more." William looked at the sunset in the distance, tears welling up in his eyes for no reason. "It still feels like a dream."

Like Dawn Fortress, Istria also promulgated the laws of Black Iron Castle. Many people were so excited that they couldn't sleep that night.

Another person who couldn't sleep was Duke Charles.

He sat in front of a luxurious desk with a cigar in his mouth, and the curling smoke made his face look even more sad.

He had received news that his confidant, Francis, a Saint-level wizard who was powerful enough to massacre a city, died in Black Iron Castle in just one day.

If nothing unexpected happens, that bitch Sophia has already sided with Bai Yan.

However, these were not the most troublesome things for Charles. What made him most angry and puzzled was that Bai Yan declared war on the Exashu Empire!!

On what basis? All of Bai Yan's subjects totaled less than 100,000. How could he have the courage to overthrow a huge empire that had ruled this land for thousands of years?

Charles couldn't figure it out, and all he could do was to kill this royal scum who was plotting rebellion as soon as possible.

A map of the Purple Gold Territory was spread out on the desk. Upon closer inspection, one could see lines drawn on it. These lines extended from various places in the Purple Gold Territory, but all pointed in one direction - the Mithril City.

Although it is a medium-sized city, the Mithril City is rich in the most precious metal - Mithril.

Not only does it have extremely high strength and ductility, it is also very light. More importantly, it has a very high affinity with magic. Most magic equipment and knights' shields and swords are made of this material.

Duke Charles had already learned that Star City and Istria City had been captured, and he was not surprised.

With the help of Sophia, the extremely powerful Valkyrie, the small city has no ability to resist at all.

But no matter what, Bai Yan's ultimate goal must be the Mithril City, so Charles is constantly sending reinforcements from surrounding cities.

In addition, magical defense equipment that only large cities have is also being transported to the Mithril City. He wants to build the Mithril City into an iron fortress before the White Rock Army arrives.

The next day, the armies on both fronts continued to advance, and the supply source in the rear was directly changed to Xingyao City and Istria City. However, military consumables such as artillery shells and bullets were never stopped being transported from Black Iron Castle.

Whenever a batch of artillery shells was produced, they were immediately shipped away. The military factory produced various artillery shells non-stop around the clock.

"Lord Wald! The defenders of Cuilan City have been defeated. When will we join up with the troops on the eastern front?" The second battalion commander of the 002nd Division asked while saluting.

"Why the hell do you need to ask? Get ready and set off immediately!" Wald glared angrily, patted the second battalion commander's hat and sneered.

Until the sunset, the two teams, like long dragons, met together in a small town in the center, ready to go.

And on this day, this small town called Rhine welcomed a distinguished guest.

Bai Yan walked into the headquarters tent and picked up a piece of whole grain bread and started eating it.

"How is it? How many casualties?" After taking a sip of hot water, he asked Gray and Wald.

"Your Highness, only two soldiers were injured by the enemy's mid-level knights, and there were no casualties." Gray stood upright, with some hesitation on his face.

Finally, he looked at Bai Yan and said softly, "Your Highness, isn't it too dangerous for you to come to the front line? Walder and I are here."

Before Bai Yan could speak, Walder snorted in dissatisfaction, then turned to look at him with extreme admiration, "What do you know? With His Highness Bai Yan's vision, he must have seen a longer-term perspective, and he came here specifically to give us guidance!

Right? Your Highness Bai Yan."

Bai Yan's mouth twitched slightly, but he nodded. "Do you know any magic defense equipment?"

“I don’t know much about this thing, but it should be a device that can store magic and use it at any time.

There seems to be a limit on the number of times it can be used.”

Walder stroked the white beard on his chin, a look of reminiscence emerging on his face.

"Right!! It seems to be a thing that those arcanists developed that can automatically cast magic attacks, but because it is too expensive, the production volume is very small."

Bai Yan nodded when he heard this. He had heard this news from Sophia. This meant that this alien world was not completely without any technological tree to climb.

“Tomorrow, that kind of magical defense equipment will definitely appear on the walls of the Mithril City. The priority of the artillery attack will be to destroy it.

Try your best to preserve your own manpower, don't be stingy with your shells, it's best to blow down the wall and then organize an attack.

Get some rest, tomorrow will be a tough battle."

After saying this, Bai Yan walked out of the tent. Outside, Alicia was standing there doing nothing, gently wagging her tail.

Not far away, Constance was whispering something in Sophia's ear, which made the Valkyrie feel embarrassed and angry.

"Do you want me to take action tomorrow? I feel like we probably won't be able to win." When Alicia saw Bai Yan coming out, she wagged her tail even more happily.

"No! You can't take action no matter what, and neither can Constance." Bai Yan's eyes showed a hint of seriousness, "The only one who can join the war now is Sofia."

"Me? I'm ready to fight at any time. No matter what you ask me to do, I will do it seriously." Sophia nodded seriously, her golden high ponytail hanging straight down, like a dashing female knight.

"Tomorrow there may be a Saint-level enemy, and it may not be just one." Bai Yan looked at Sophia with a hint of worry in his eyes, "So you have to try your best to contain the enemy. If you can't contain him, run away. Don't hold on like a stubborn donkey."

"Hmph, who are you calling a stubborn donkey? Just leave it to me!" Sophia hummed and tossed her head, causing her high ponytail to swing gently, shining with golden light under the moonlight.
