Although no one had ever said anything crazy when discussing the battleships between the beginning and the end, to be honest, they did not regard this Vitali battle as a real battle.

If they were on the battle map at this moment, with their current strength, they would have captured such a medium-sized city, and not to mention Li Ran’s own actions, maybe even Xia Houben and others would not be able to do it. As long as Cao Dayong and Cai Chang can easily settle it, it was just that because this time it was on the world map, it was a little different from the previous situation. In addition, Li Ran was not here, they would be more cautious at this moment.

So at the moment, when Roger City was occupied again, they were a little careful. At the same time, in order to ensure the success of this siege, they adjusted the level of the siege again and again after considering the advantages of the siege, and prepared some more powerful sieges as ambushers, including some legendary creatures to prevent any unexpected situations from happening at that time.

But even so, when Li Ran and Xia Houben returned three days later, they did not express any opinions on the occupation of Roger City. However, in the conference hall of Thun City, when he received the order for the fighters handed over by Zhou Xun, his brows gradually frowned.

After following Li Ran for so long, out of understanding of him, I saw his face again and didn't speak for a long time. Wu Tongtong and others, even Niu Yuezhiwu and Zhou Tong, knew that it was broken. It seemed that something went wrong there again.

But they couldn't help but feel a little curious. They also read this detailed list of troops. There was no problem. Maybe because they were afraid of accidents, they once thought that Zhou Xun was too conservative and felt that there were too many higher-level troops sent.

But this time, Li Ran did not tell them what he had in the past, and corrected the details of the troops sent, but asked them to study it carefully and left.

Looking at Li Ran's leaving figure, everyone present was a little confused and self-blame. No matter what mistakes they made, they would feel extremely relieved when they thought of Li Ran behind them. But at this moment, they really felt that Li Ran's disappointment with them made them sweat in an instant.

After their begging, Zhao Lanlan went to inquire, and they were even more surprised to learn that Li Ran had already planned a trip to the Sunset Mountains with Xia Houben, Tang Zi and others, and they were even more surprised.

You should know that the Sunset Mountains are the largest mountain range in this land of the gods, and are also one of the most dangerous areas on the battle map. There are countless forbidden areas inside. It takes several months to get there. Li Ran and others can't come back without several years. They are really worried about whether they can keep this foundation.

Moreover, when Zhao Lanlan went there this time, she found out that Li Ran regarded this siege as a test for them, but the result was obviously not ideal. They made mistakes when considering the issue of sending troops, so Li Ran was so angry.

In the next few days, Zhou Xun and others asked for some investigation details from Tianyun Group. Even Cai Chang, who had always been careful, was sent to Vitali City by them. Finally, they read all the information and finally found the problem in a thick world information. It turned out that the lord of Vitali City and the lord of Antwerp City, more than 300 miles away, had little contact with each other, but they were real brothers.

You should know that Antwerp City is a real big city, and the city lord Antwer is a powerful paladin. Even Banorses, the lord of the Black Rock Mountains, was polite to him and had a powerful legion.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun and others were shocked. The distance of more than 300 miles was enough for the city guard who had a ten-day preparation period. When they saw their brothers being attacked, this powerful paladin would definitely not stand by. Once the calculation error was made, it would be a serious blow.

That night, Zhou Xun and others found Li Ran together and took the initiative to admit their mistakes to him.

After seeing that they found out the cause of the problem, Li Ran nodded and said, "Although we are developing well now, there is no allowance for any mistakes on the battlefield. Give up those unnecessary arrogance in order to fully understand our opponents."

Next, Li Ran looked at them and said, "I guess you also knew that I was going to the Sunset Mountains. If nothing unexpected happens, it will take at least one or two years to go there, and it will be even longer. Although you can find me offline, what if things are urgent, and after we go there, the work and rest time cannot be the same as you, and we cannot understand the situation thoroughly. Even if we make a decision, it is impossible to achieve comprehensiveness. You can only rely on yourself."

Seeing Zhou Xun and others being silent, Li Ran also smiled slightly and said, "Maybe I've been a little anxious during this period and have a little strict requirements for you, but I really hope you can stand alone, and I don't want you to suddenly knock on the door that day and tell me that all the cities are occupied."

Although I felt a little uncomfortable, Zhou Xun and others forced a smile when they heard Li Ran say this, and promised that they would be able to do everything next time they consider such a war.

After chatting for a few words, Li Ran also smiled and said to Zhou Xun: "Actually, I gave you the list of five thousand soldiers before, which is actually a misleading thing. I just hope you can discover and overthrow it."

After hearing this, Zhou Xun and others couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed, but fortunately, Li Ran seemed to be in a good mood at this time, and affirmed the types and number of conscripts they mentioned next. At the same time, he also discussed the cooperation on the battlefield with his teammates.

"In a word, after you issue an application for siege, you must send someone to keep an eye on this Antwerp city and decide on the first batch of candidates to attack the city according to the number of troops sent by the other party," Li Ran said at the end.

"What if that Pucheng sent too many people?" Zhang Debiao said worriedly at this time.

Li Ran smiled slightly and said, "If there are too many, we will cancel it. Anyway, we don't need our money to apply for the siege, and we don't need our union points to be deducted."

Hearing this, the teammates couldn't help laughing, but at this moment, Zhang Juan gave Zhang Debiao a blank look and said, "You are a pig. Even if you are brothers, can you still be able to rescue them? At most 10,000 or 20,000 elite soldiers are amazing. The legendary Green Dragon Legion we sent alone has reached 500. Are you still afraid that they will not succeed?"

Li Ran also smiled and said, "Actually, Zhang Debiao is considering it right. On the battlefield, you can think about everything in a bad way. However, in the future, you can actually find an ally to attack the city at the same time. For example, this time, if someone attacks Antwerp at the same time, your previous troops will be enough."

"Brother Ran, don't tease us. Now someone dares to attack that big city," Huang Jiwei said with a smile at this time.

Li Ran shook his head and said, "You can't underestimate others. Those who are stronger than us may be more powerful. There have been several big cities before. I have already agreed with them about this. They will be our allies in the future. In this case, we can ask them for help. Even if they don't attack the city, as long as they send an application for siege to Antwerp at the same time, it will actually prevent the city from sending troops, and at least they will not dare to send too many troops."

Hearing this, Zhou Xun and other teammates couldn't help but lit up. Zhang Debiao said hurriedly: "Then we can ask the company to spend money to hire a union application now. Wouldn't we be more stable?"

But Li Ran waved his hand and said, "These city lords are not fools. They don't care about the small union they hired for money. Maybe they will backfire. As for those large armies that meet the requirements of siege, they will definitely not lower the union level for a little money. You must know that the union upgrade is the same as the figures. After reaching a certain level, I don't know how much effort and time it takes to upgrade to another level."

Next, Li Ran continued: "I will go to the Sunset Mountains soon. I also want to take this opportunity to stabilize this battle for a period of time. This way, you can save trouble and I can save some energy."

Knowing that Li Ran meant that he wanted to shock some hidden dangers through this battle, and at the same time, he severely attacked Antwerp City so that the city lord would not disturb them in a short period of time. At this time, the teammates couldn't help but nodded repeatedly.

Taking advantage of the fact that his teammates were all present at this time, Li Ran simply talked about the next development plan and focused on asking them to be careful of the other two dukes. In this case, especially the Duke of Sels, according to the scout information sent by Li Ran, the real force of this person was not below the Duke of Mednache before.

"Of course you don't have to worry too much. Duke Mednachi is now closely watched by the new king and Prince Pamela. In addition, his strength has been weakened a lot in the previous war. He should not be able to turn around in the past two or three years. In addition, our relationship with Prince Pamela is interdependent. Duke Sels has missed an opportunity. There should be no major war in the empire in the past period of time." Li Ran comforted everyone and said.

After a while, Wu Tongtong suddenly asked, "Master, then you said last time that you wanted to talk to the new king. You want to have a city in the Underground World of Ioff. How is the progress now?"

Li Ranen said, "I am just about to tell you about this matter. Although our new king has acquiesced, it may have to wait for a few more months. After all, the Duke of Mednachi was defending before. Suddenly intervening would probably be dissatisfied by him. So next, you should focus on the semi-planes of Endless Snowland and Tyre City, and try to collect powerful troops through these two places. As for the exchange of troops, part of it can be exchanged through Prince Pamela and several other marquises, and the other part I will take you to the capital city and the auction house set up here in Grinnada before leaving."
