What the hell is this?
"System, are you sure this is a level 4 challenge mission?" Lu Ping asked.
Unfortunately, the system ignored him at all.
"Your sister..."
......
The next moment, Lu Ping entered the mission copy.
Of course, Lu Ping’s army also entered the copy.
Opening his eyes, Lu Ping arrived at Suiye City.
The place where they settled was right on the wall of Suiye City.
Looking around, the entire Suiye City is not large, about the size of a football field.
The city is surrounded by a three-meter-high earthen wall. The wall is not high but very thick.
Looking inside the city, there were ruins everywhere, but not a single person could be seen.
"Is this Suiye City?" Lu Ping frowned.
Suiye City, also known as Suye City, got its name because it is next to Suye River.
Suiye City was established during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty and was known as one of the Four Anxi Towns together with Kucha, Shule and Khotan.
Lu Ping has a good knowledge of history, so he knows this.
The Suiye City in front of him was completely different from what Lu Ping had imagined.
Except for the endless Gobi Desert and the endless yellow sand.
While thinking, Lu Ping suddenly saw a group of cavalry, Turkic cavalry, appearing in the distance.
Lu Ping was shocked. He didn't expect the other party to come so quickly.
"Don't panic, my lord. I will go and meet them later."
Su Dingfang immediately asked for orders and then led more than a hundred cavalrymen out of the city gate.
“Kill~~~”
With Su Dingfang's roar, more than a hundred cavalrymen rushed straight towards the enemy.
Seeing this, Lu Ping let him go.
The battle that made Su Dingfang famous was when he led two hundred cavalrymen to break through the tent of Jie Li Khan, making a great contribution to the Tang Dynasty's conquest of the Eastern Turks.
The number of the Turkic cavalry on the opposite side was only a few dozen, not enough to fill Su Dingfang's teeth.
As expected, soon this group of more than 50 Turkic cavalrymen were either killed or fled in panic.
Lu Ping didn't care too much about the battle outside the city. The most urgent task at the moment was to arrange defense.
Since the Turkic scouts have appeared, I think the main army will arrive soon.
"General Yue, I leave this battle to you. Our opponents are the Turks. The number is unknown, but I think it will be quite large."
"Our mission is to hold Suiye City for a month."
Lu Ping could not command such a large-scale battle, so Yue Fei had to do it.
"I obey your command."
After accepting the task, Yue Fei immediately began to deploy.
He ordered Yang Fan, Yan Qing, Song Jiang and Li Yao to lead a thousand soldiers to guard the four directions, with Wilson and the other three as their deputy generals.
Huang Zhong commanded a thousand archers alone, with Hu Laosan as his deputy general.
The cavalry was still commanded by Su Dingfang, and the remaining 4,000 infantry as reserves were commanded by Li Si and Clinton.
After the arrangements were completed, all the soldiers took orders and acted according to the plan.
Afterwards, Lu Ping, accompanied by Yue Fei, found a relatively intact house to settle down and used it as the central military camp.
This place is close to the north gate of Suiye City. If the enemy attacks, Lu Ping can arrive quickly.
After settling down, Lu Ping walked out of the house and took a walk around the city.
In the end, there was not a single person in sight, only ruins and yellow sand in the air.
"It seems that this challenge mission is not optimistic." Lu Ping said worriedly.
This challenging mission really made Lu Ping feel a little nervous.
"My lord, please do not disturb us. We have twelve thousand elite soldiers and no need to worry about food and fodder. Suiye City itself is not very large. I am confident that I can complete the mission."
Seeing Lu Ping's worry, Yue Fei comforted him.
"There's no shortage of food, but where are the arrows?"
After thinking about it, Lu Ping said.
The challenge mission is a copy mission, and Lu Ping does not need to supply food and fodder to the soldiers.
But arrows are different. Each soldier has only ninety arrows available per day, and once they are used up, they can only wait 24 hours for a refresh.
"My lord, in ordinary battles, ninety arrows are more than enough."
"Unless the battle is particularly fierce, if it is really not enough, we can use it..." Yue Fei said, pointing forward.
Lu Ping looked in the direction of Yue Fei's finger and saw that there were collapsed houses.
Seeing the bricks, tiles, stones and exposed beams and pillars on the ground, Lu Ping immediately understood what Yue Fei meant.
At critical moments, using bricks and logs instead of arrows is also a means.
Anyway, there is no one in Suiye City and there are plenty of houses.
"Well, that's a good idea. We should do this as soon as possible. Arrange someone to start working on it immediately."
"In short, it's better to be prepared." Lu Ping ordered.
"yes!"
In less than ten minutes, the order was passed down and the soldiers got busy.
Soon, piles of stones and logs were dug out and moved near the city wall.
Seeing this, Lu Ping also breathed a sigh of relief.
It is necessary to make all possible preparations, and I hope that the task can be completed smoothly this time.
...............
"The enemy is coming......"
"Everyone on alert..."
Soon, the shouts of soldiers were heard from the city walls.
Hearing the sound, Lu Ping hurried to the city wall.
Looking up, I saw yellow sand rising in the distance and countless cavalrymen galloping towards Suiye City, at least 100,000 in number.
"Fuck, so many?"
Lu Ping widened his eyes.
Is this too exaggerated?
Do you have to be so deceiving?
"Pass the order, everyone be on full alert and prepare to meet the enemy." Yue Fei was fearless in the face of danger and gave the order loudly.
"yes."
Soon, with Yue Fei's order, the soldiers picked up their shields and gripped their swords and guns.
A quarter of an hour later, the Turkic army arrived outside the city of Suiye and stopped.
"I am the Turkic Khan Xueyantuo. Why don't you open your city and surrender?"
Xueyantuo was wearing red armor, riding his horse and waving the whip, shouting at the city wall with an extremely arrogant expression.
"If you want to fight, then fight. Stop talking nonsense. If you have the guts, just come and attack. I'll beat you till your teeth are chopped off the ground." Lu Ping replied loudly.
"A bunch of barbarians dare to invade the Tang Dynasty. Today, I will make sure you never return."
"Xueyantuo boy, hurry up and come to die."
"What's there to fear from the lion of the Tang Dynasty? Haha..."
On the city wall, all the soldiers laughed.
"Hmph, fine. If you want to fight, I will send you to the west."
"All troops, listen up! Shoot!"
Xueyantuo's face was gloomy and he suddenly drew his sword.
call out!
In an instant, tens of thousands of arrows whizzed towards Suiye City.
"Shield bearers, raise your shields."
On the city wall, Yue Fei gave orders.
In an instant, the shield bearers raised their shields.
Ding ding dang dang!
“Ah~”
In an instant, a rain of arrows poured down, dense arrows hit the thick shields, and screams continued to sound.
Although the soldiers had shields for protection, there were too many arrows and casualties were inevitable.
However, these casualties are just a drop in the bucket for Lu Ping.
"Go, kill them all."
After several rounds of arrows, Xueyantuo gave the order to attack.
Immediately, a team of 10,000 people rushed out from the army.
"Shoot..."
On the city wall, Yue Fei shouted loudly.
