Chapter 36 The Poor Thomas



Then, the army galloped all the way, marching sixty miles a day, and arrived at the target and set up camp twenty miles away that night.

This way, we can arrive in just half a day tomorrow.

The next morning, the army continued its march.

At noon, we arrived at a small valley five miles away from the target city.

The army would camp here and wait until midnight to launch the attack.

It would be a lie for Lu Ping to say that he was not nervous in this battle. After all, this was his first battle since entering the battlefield of various nations.

But Lu Ping was more excited.

It is conceivable that the profits will be huge once you win.

After a short rest, Lu Ping immediately arranged for Yue Fei and others to go for reconnaissance separately.

Two hours later, Yue Fei and others returned and told Lu Ping that everything was normal on the other side, without any abnormal reaction, and they had not noticed the arrival of Lu Ping's army.

It was right that the opponent did not react, and it was also within Lu Ping's expectations.

Lu Ping hasn't even left the novice stage yet.

The other party would never have thought that he would be ambushed by a novice.

I can't believe that someone would dare to finish the novice period early.

This kind of thing has never happened in the battlefield of all nations for so many years.

To put it bluntly, Lu Ping relied on sneak attacks in this battle to catch his opponent off guard.

"Send the order, at midnight tonight, the entire army will attack the enemy city."

Seeing this, Lu Ping didn't waste any words and immediately gave the order.

"Yes!" The generals responded loudly.

.......

Lu Ping's opponent is named Thomas.

Thomas is less than 30 years old and is an Axar.

Thomas entered the battlefield of all nations a year ago. He was lucky and survived the novice period. After continuous development, he grew into a level five lord.

Thomas certainly knew that a new lord appeared nearby, but as Lu Ping expected, this guy was not at all on guard against Lu Ping, the new lord.

It’s not Thomas’ fault for being careless, because new lords have a one-month protection period.

At this moment, Thomas was worried.

Although Thomas's town was upgraded to level five, his barracks were not synchronized and are still at level four.

The reason, of course, is a lack of resources.

It took Thomas half a month to save up enough resources to upgrade a barracks.

But Thomas began to wonder again which barracks to upgrade first, the spearmen, the archers, or the sword and shield soldiers?

After much thought, Thomas felt that spearmen were the most reliable and required the least resources.

Then, Thomas chose to upgrade the spearman battalion.

As for the other three barracks, we will have to talk about them later.

After the upgrade of the Spear Barracks was completed, Thomas immediately recruited new soldiers.

Thus, Thomas had 640 more spearmen, bringing the total strength to 3,200.

Everything was settled, and Thomas was very relieved. After all, the more troops he had, the more secure his safety would be.

Thomas had no idea that danger was getting closer and closer to him.

At one o'clock in the morning, Lu Ping led 8,000 troops and secretly lurked a thousand meters away from the city.

By this time, Thomas had already fallen asleep.

There were only a few defenders on the city wall, led by a general named Exon.

Thomas has a total of six generals under his command, but he is not as lucky as Lu Ping. All six generals are trash without exception.

The weather is nice tonight, there is no moon!

Neither Exon nor the defending soldiers noticed the large army assembled a thousand meters away.

Seeing the few defenders on the city wall, Lu Ping immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the other side was really unprepared.

“Let’s get started!”

After a moment, Lu Ping gave the order.

As soon as Lu Ping finished speaking, Huang Zhong was the first to rush forward.

As we all know, Huang Zhong is an unparalleled archer.

The opposing general is standing on the top of the city wall at this moment, and he is so conspicuous.

To catch a thief, you must first catch the leader. Huang Zhong was ready to kill him first.

At the same time, Yue Fei raised his spear and pointed it at the city wall.

Following Yue Fei's signal, the army advanced silently.

A moment later!

“Whoosh~whoosh~”

There was a sound of breaking through the air, and three sharp arrows shot towards Exon.

Exxon dodged quickly upon hearing the sound.

Unfortunately, Exxon was too weak to escape Huang Zhong's sneak attack.

"Bang~"

The sharp arrow pierced his chest, blood splattered, and then he fell from the city wall.

"enemy........"

"Swoosh~"

A soldier nearby saw everything and was about to shout when he was shot dead by Huang Zhong.

"Oh no, enemy attack!"

"Quick! Notify the general!"

"Go and report to the city lord!"

"ah--"

It was not until then that the other soldiers discovered the situation.

Suddenly, there was a panic on the city wall.

In the panic, screams continued to be heard.

The screams were of course Huang Zhong's masterpiece. As long as anyone accidentally showed their head, Huang Zhong would guarantee to hit them with one arrow.

At this time, Yue Fei led his army to within less than 200 meters outside the city.

"Soldiers, follow me and charge."

Seeing that the time had come, Yue Fei raised his arms and shouted.

“Aho-ho—”

"kill......."

Upon hearing the order, eight thousand soldiers roared in unison and rushed towards the city.

Soon, the army rushed to the city.

Dozens of ladders were quickly placed on the city wall, and Yue Fei was the first to climb up the ladder.

The rest of the generals were not to be outdone and climbed up one after another.

As a general, of course you have to lead by example.

More importantly, only they can gain a foothold on the city wall.

Once they climbed the city wall, the battle would be a foregone conclusion.

.......

At the same time, Thomas was awakened and heard the noise coming from far away, and he immediately became furious.

“Who the hell is disturbing my sleep?”
