Although Yue Fei's cavalry had an advantage in numbers and their combat effectiveness was obviously higher than that of the enemy, Yue Fei did not rush for success.
Instead, we have been making steady progress.
Yue Fei did this on the one hand to minimize unnecessary casualties, and on the other hand to paralyze the enemy and create opportunities for Huo Qubing to launch a surprise attack.
"Boom~"
"Bang~"
......
Under Yue Fei's command, 60,000 heavy cavalry were invincible in front of the formation, constantly dividing and encircling the enemy troops.
At the same time, Huo Qubing also quietly approached the battlefield with 150,000 heavy cavalry.
Half an hour passed and the war was still going on.
The coalition forces were defeated, and only less than 20,000 heavy cavalry were left out of the 50,000.
Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Green had no choice but to order 30,000 light cavalry to provide support, which managed to stabilize the situation slightly.
At this moment, Green's face was very solemn.
Green is not stupid. He noticed in the previous battle that the enemy seemed to have been letting the enemy win.
But he couldn't guess what the enemy was thinking, and he didn't even know what went wrong.
At this moment, Green suddenly felt a vague sense of danger.
His pupils shrank slightly and he suddenly turned around to look.
I saw a huge team rushing towards me.
“Dong~” “Dong~” “Dong~”…
The huge sound of horse hooves and the sound of war drums resounded between heaven and earth, and countless cavalry swept in from behind like a torrent.
cavalry!
Definitely cavalry!
Green's eyes were bloodshot!
"Damn it! How could this happen? Where did Lu Ping get so many cavalrymen?"
"Quick, fight off the enemy!"
"Oliver, Powell, hand over command to the general, and we will retreat immediately."
Green shouted.
"No, I want to stay and command..."
Powell said with a grim expression.
But before Powell could finish, Green slapped him in the face.
"Idiot! The enemy is cavalry, hundreds of thousands of them!"
"If you are beheaded, all your soldiers will be finished! Have you forgotten the lesson of Koizumi and others?"
"As long as we keep our lives, the soldiers will not surrender and they will fight to the death!"
Hearing this, Powell's face turned pale.
He knew that Green was right. If he died, it would be a burden to the entire coalition.
Immediately, Powell gritted his teeth and nodded.
Soon, Green and the other two delegated their command and fled into the distance with their trusted men.
At the moment they fled, the cavalry led by Huo Qubing also arrived at the battlefield.
"kill!"
“Kill…”
War horses neighed, swords flashed, and blood spurted.
For a moment, the shouts of killing were deafening and corpses were everywhere.
The battle lasted for more than two hours and ended with Lu Ping's victory.
All 500,000 coalition soldiers were wiped out.
The troops of Huo Qubing and Yue Fei also suffered heavy casualties, totaling over 90,000 people.
The main reason for such casualties was that the three lords deserted the battlefield, causing the enemy to fight to the death.
This made Huo Qubing and Yue Fei very angry, but they were helpless.
Lu Ping was also quite regretful after receiving the news.
But Lu Ping also had no way out. It seemed that the enemy had already planned this.
But no matter what, Lu Ping still wiped out the enemy troops along the way.
As a result, the total enemy strength dropped to 850,000, greatly reducing Lu Ping's pressure.
At this time, the coalition forces also received news that Green and his two companions had been defeated.
Suddenly, all the allied lords were stunned, especially William.
"Three idiots! An army of 500,000 was completely wiped out in less than three hours!"
William cursed.
"Sir William, we can't blame them for this. After all, none of us expected that Lu Ping would have so many heavy cavalry!"
"It seems that we all underestimated him." said Karanth next to him.
"Karans is right. Although Green and his team were defeated, Lu Ping also suffered heavy losses. The key is that he has exposed his full strength."
"Next, as long as our two armies unite, his hundreds of thousands of cavalry will no longer be a threat." said another lord.
"Well, pass on my order and order Robert to come closer to me immediately." William said.
"Yes, sir!" many lords responded.
......
At this time, news of Lu Ping's victory quickly arrived from the Qing Kingdom's military headquarters.
"Haha, this little guy is really amazing!" said a general happily.
"It's truly amazing. In less than half a day, an army of 500,000 was annihilated. It's truly incredible."
A veteran also exclaimed in admiration.
"That's right, but it's a pity that the little guy has already used up all his trump cards. The days ahead will be tough."
"well...."
Listening to everyone's discussion, the general shook his head and looked at the victory report on the table with a complicated expression.
"Chief, should we lend a hand?" a general frowned.
"You think I don't want to help him?"
"The problem is, we can't teleport, we can't trade resources, how can we help?"
Everyone was silent and fell into distress.
..........
On the other side, inside Huo Qubing's camp.
"General Huo, although we won this battle, we have lost our momentum!" Yue Fei sighed.
"Those guys ran too fast. It was our mistake. We didn't consider it before." Huo Qubing said with regret.
"We only have 120,000 combat-ready soldiers left in our army. What should we do next?"
Yue Fei asked.
"The Lord didn't give any clear instructions. I think he left it to us to decide for ourselves."
"I think we can turn around and head east. We don't have to annihilate the enemy troops on the east route, but at least we can delay them."
"This way, the pressure on the lord to defend the city will be greatly reduced!"
Huo Qubing said after pondering for a moment.
"I think this plan is feasible!"
"But we must act quickly and stop them before the enemy troops join us," Yue Fei agreed.
"Yeah, that's what I meant."
"There is no time to lose, let's set off immediately."
........
The next morning.
After a night-long attack, Huo Qubing and his troops finally stopped the enemy troops on the east route before they could join forces.
Robert, the enemy commander on the east, received orders from William and was moving closer to William.
Seeing that Huo Qubing's army blocked their way, Robert had no choice but to fight.
......
At the same time, William's army arrived at the city of Luping.
"Lu Ping! Your time of death has come!!"
William stood on horseback and roared at the city.
"Haha, you're exaggerating to me?"
“Come on…”
On the city wall, Lu Ping sneered and retorted without any hesitation.
"Humph! You're looking for death!"
William's eyes flashed with coldness, and the spear in his hand pointed at Lu Ping.
"attack!"
As soon as he finished speaking, more than 100,000 soldiers charged out and rushed towards the city with great momentum.
"Shoot!" Lu Ping ordered without hesitation.
In an instant, a dense rain of arrows poured down from the city wall.
