After receiving the order, four generals under Rex immediately stepped forward and surrounded Lu Bu.
But the result was obvious. Not long after the four generals entangled Lu Bu, two were killed and two were injured.
Seeing this, Rex was shocked.
He could never have imagined that the opponent's general would be so powerful.
However, before Rex could come to his senses, Yue Fei, Su Dingfang, Huang Zhong and others rushed to the city wall and madly hacked at the enemy troops on the city wall.
In a short while, the defending army was defeated.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Rex quickly organized his soldiers to fight back.
“Whoosh…”
But at this moment, a sound of breaking through the air suddenly rang out.
As Rex looked up, he saw a crossbow arrow coming towards him.
"Bang."
The next moment, Rex didn't have time to react, he only felt his body shake violently.
Rex looked down and saw that an arrow had pierced his chest and blood was gushing out of the wound.
"you……?"
Rex opened his mouth to say something, but before he could finish his words, the life drained from him.
Of course the arrow was shot by Huang Zhong. Huang Zhong's unparalleled archery skills are not in vain.
After Rex's death, the defenders naturally had no desire to fight and knelt down in surrender.
Ten minutes later, the system sounded.
"Ding: Congratulations to the host for defeating the opponent and successfully occupying the opponent's city. You will receive 50,000 reputation and 50,000 experience."
"Ding: Congratulations to the host for defeating the opponent and inheriting all of his territory."
"Ding: Congratulations to the host for defeating the opponent and obtaining the return of the opponent's city resources, totaling 1.1 million grain, 1 million timber, 900,000 stone, and 700,000 iron ore."
"Ding: Congratulations to the host for defeating the opponent and receiving an additional reward of 1,000 light cavalry."
"Ding: Remind the host that you can build two fortresses in the newly occupied territory."
"Ding: Remind the host that the village function can be activated after the lord reaches level 7."
Listening to the prompt sound coming from his ear, Lu Ping smiled. It turned out to be the most cost-effective to fight to support the war.
Although the food obtained this time was only enough for Lu Ping to sustain for ten more days, it at least relieved some of Lu Ping's pressure.
The battle is over.
The next step was to count the casualties and prisoners.
But this time Lu Ping would definitely not take in the prisoners, but would decisively abandon them.
There was no way, Lu Ping couldn't even afford to support his own soldiers.
Of course, the captured general Lu Ping must be kept.
Military generals do not consume food, only reputation.
There were four generals captured in this battle, namely Oaks, Marcus, Agra and Rolls.
Among them, Marcus is a second-rate general, and the remaining three are second-rate generals.
This was also the first time that Lu Ping captured a second-rate general, and a foreign general at that.
Lu Ping considered himself well-versed in history, but only in the history of Qing State. Therefore, Lu Ping had no idea where this Marcus came from or what specific deeds he had done.
Of course, Lu Ping didn't need to know.
No matter where he comes from, since he has been captured, he belongs to Lu Ping.
All Lu Ping needed to know was that this guy was a second-rate general.
…
After clearing the battlefield and dealing with the prisoners, Lu Ping immediately led his troops away.
After leaving the city, Lu Ping ordered the army to rest for a day and prepare to move on to the next target tomorrow.
Just as Lu Ping was resting, the news of Rex's death also reached the ears of the other two lords.
Both of these lords are from the Giant Bear Country, one is called Andreas and the other is called Gudsky.
After receiving the news, the two of them immediately became restless.
Lu Ping's strength made them panic.
After some thought, the two decided to join forces to deal with Lu Ping.
According to their thinking, Lu Ping's total military strength was only 26,000, and he lost at least 2,000 in the battle with Rex, so at most there were 24,000 left.
The two of them only need to send out 10,000 troops each, form an alliance and take the initiative to fight Lu Ping. They don't have to win this battle. As long as they can consume more than half of Lu Ping's troops, they can ensure that they are safe.
They are all level six lords, each with more than 15,000 soldiers. Even if they lose 10,000 soldiers, there are still 5,000 left.
On the other hand, Lu Ping may only have 10,000 soldiers left after this battle, or even only 7,000 or 8,000.
In this case, it is basically impossible for Lu Ping to capture their city.
After all, they were on the defensive side, while Lu Ping was on the offensive side.
After the discussion, the two men took action immediately, each sending out 10,000 troops to ambush on the road that Lu Ping had to pass.
Of course, they did not dare to lead the troops into battle themselves and could only entrust it to their respective generals.
I have to say, these two guys are pure idiots.
He treated the war as a game of chess and naively believed that sacrificing 20,000 soldiers could exchange for 20,000 of Lu Ping's soldiers.
They also did not take into account that there were 6,000 cavalry in Lu Ping's army.
........
Lu Ping was completely unaware of this matter.
The next morning, Lu Ping led the army on a mighty march.
It was not until noon that Lu Ping received the report from the scouts.
"Report to the lord, there is an enemy ambush ahead."
"Eh, there's an ambush? How many troops are there?"
"My lord, approximately 20,000 people."
"Twenty thousand people?"
"How can there be so many?"
Hearing this, Lu Ping was shocked.
A level six lord would normally have no more than 15,000 or 16,000 troops.
With 20,000 people lying in ambush, doesn't that mean anyone needs to stay in the city to guard it?
No, there must be something wrong when things are abnormal.
"How far away are they from us?"
"My lord, it's twenty miles away."
"Are there any cavalry?"
"My lord, there are no cavalry."
