The battle of five armies comes after Smaug's death, after Thorin's 'dragon greed' almost starts a war against the elves and the men of Laketown.
Smaug only appeared in the Hobbit, where he was killed and he never appeared again (because he was dead). So smaug was not in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, but he was in the Hobbit.
There will be a second movie that has the name 'The Hobbit' in it, but not an actual new book, as the Author is dead. (J.R.R Tolkien) The film they released is followed by two more, which have not been released yet
It is in the second chapter of 'The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring' (Book 1) called 'The Shadow of the Past.'
The Hobbit is fairly linear. There are a few places where the time line backs up, particularly when the dwarves and Bilbo are exploring Smaug's den and Smaug is attacking Laketown.
There are three Lord of the Rings films. The Fellowship of the Ring (2001), The Two Towers (2002), and The Return of the King (2003), all directed and produced by Peter Jackson and the New Line Cinema. Peter Jackson is also making three films out of The Hobbit book, the prequel to The Lord of the Rings. They are called The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012), The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (2013), and The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014).Also there are some animated films made back in the 70's and 80's. There are 3 in total. The Hobbit (1977) by Rankin and Bass, The Lord of the Rings (1978) by Ralph Bakshi, and The Return of the King (1980) by Rankin and Bass. These films are not related to the Peter Jackson films, or each other.

The HobbitThe Fellowship of the Ring, Book IThe Fellowship of the Ring, Book IIThe Two Towers, Book IThe Two Towers, Book IIThe Return of the King, Book IThe Return of the King, Book IIThe Silmarillion is another book that Tolkien also set in Middle-earth thousands of years before the first of the Hobbit books, but it is a history of the Elves and does not concern itself with Hobbits (except briefly in its final chapter where it reviews the events of the end of the Third Age from the point of view of the Elves, which differs slightly from the point of view of the Hobbits).
Smaug only appeared in the Hobbit, where he was killed and he never appeared again (because he was dead). So smaug was not in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, but he was in the Hobbit.
Smaug doesn't recognize the scent of Hobbit, although he knows what dwarves and men smell like.
The main conflict in The Hobbit is trying to regain the Lonely Mountain from Smaug the Dragon.
The Hobbit was turned into a three part trilogy, with the first part, An Unexpected Journey releasing December 14th 2012, the second part, The Desolation of Smaug a year later on December 13th 2013 & the final part, The Battle of Five Armies releasing the next year on December 17th 2014.
