"Why, have you finished calling Lu Yi?"
"Is she unhappy?"
Lu Ping asked with a smile.
Lu Ping had just promised Lu Yi yesterday to accompany her shopping, but he was going to break his promise in the blink of an eye.
"Hehe, it's okay. I'm just worried that we can't avoid it."
Xia Mo said with a smile.
"You didn't tell her the real reason?"
"Of course not. I just told her there was something I needed to take care of."
"To appease her, I promised to stay with her for a few more days next time I go back."
Xia Mo said with a smile.
"Well, now that this battle is over, we need to spend some time with her."
Lu Ping nodded.
..........
Time passed, and it was the third day.
Lu Ping received a report from the scouts early in the morning that the enemy had arrived.
Hurrying to the city wall, Lu Ping looked into the distance.
In the distance to the east, dust was rising.
A large army appeared in Lu Ping's sight.
"Haha, it's finally here!"
"General Li, this time it's up to you."
Seeing this, Lu Ping sneered and said.
"Yes, I will do my best."
Li Jing answered with a bow, his face solemn.
"Well, I believe you."
"Alright, get ready to meet the enemy!"
Lu Ping smiled and nodded.
"Yes~"
Li Jing accepted the order and turned to leave.
A moment later, 30,000 soldiers, led by Huang Zhong and others, climbed the city wall in an orderly manner.
According to the plan made in advance, the four city walls will be commanded by Huang Zhong, Chen Guojun, Mu Guiying and Lai Huer respectively.
In addition, Li Jing left 10,000 soldiers in the city as a reserve.
By the time everything was ready, the enemy had already arrived outside the city.
However, the enemy did not attack the city immediately, but set up camp first.
The enemy acted quickly and set up camp in a short time.
At the same time, the enemy was setting up catapults and ladders.
"These guys are well prepared."
Seeing this scene, Lu Ping's mouth curled up slightly.
"No matter how well prepared you are, you can't escape death in the end."
Li Jing replied calmly.
"Well, you're right."
Hearing this, Lu Ping couldn't help but laugh.
About half an hour later, the enemy was ready.
As the trumpets continued to sound, about 50,000 soldiers walked out of the camp and lined up in an orderly manner.
Then, under the command of the enemy general, 30,000 of the soldiers began to move to the left and right.
Obviously, the enemy intends to attack from all sides.
However, this was all within the expectations of Lu Ping and Li Jing.
The enemy has an absolute advantage in terms of military strength, so it is natural that they will attack from all sides.
"Pass the order, archers prepare!"
Seeing this, Li Jing immediately gave orders.
"yes!"
The messenger left immediately.
The order was quickly passed down and the archers got ready.
“Wuwuwu…”
A moment later, with the sound of trumpets, 50,000 enemy troops rushed towards the city shouting.
"Release the arrow~"
Seeing the enemy entering the shooting range, Li Jing gave an order.
Suddenly, the archers and crossbowmen on the city wall drew their bows and shot arrows, and arrows rained down from the sky.
Puff! Puff! .....
The next moment, dense arrows fell like raindrops.
In an instant, there were screams everywhere. Countless enemy soldiers were hit by arrows, either dead or injured.
"Shield soldiers, protect the archers from shooting."
Seeing this, the enemy generals shouted loudly.
Upon receiving the order, the shield soldiers quickly raised their shields to block the front and cover the archers' counterattack.
However, the effect was minimal because the city walls were too high and few arrows could reach the top of the city walls.
"Hurry up, rush to the city."
Seeing that the counterattack had no effect, several enemy generals immediately changed their strategy and ordered a direct charge.
As long as we rush to the city, the threat of arrows will be greatly reduced.
Soon, the enemy rushed to the city under dense arrows.
They paid a heavy price for this, losing at least one-fifth of their personnel in just a few minutes.
"Lancers prepare to meet the enemy."
"Sword and shield soldiers provide cover."
Seeing that the enemy had set up the siege ladder, Li Jing immediately gave orders.
"promise"
The soldiers received the order and immediately prepared for battle.
Soon, the first group of enemy troops climbed onto the city wall.
"Puff~Puff"
However, the spearmen were already ready.
As soon as the enemy soldiers climbed onto the city wall, they were pierced by sharp spears.
For a moment, the sounds of sharp blades piercing flesh, blood splattering, and the enemy's wails before death were heard continuously.
However, the enemy still did not give up and continued to climb to the top of the city wall.
But obviously, they were doing nothing.
How is it possible to capture a city guarded by 40,000 soldiers with only 50,000 people?
As expected, the enemy troops who climbed onto the top of the city wall could not stand firmly and were either killed or forced to jump off the city wall.
Half an hour later, seeing that they could no longer hold on, the enemy general ordered a retreat.
In this battle, at least 10,000 enemy soldiers were killed or wounded.
Lu Ping's side lost only two thousand.
Seeing this scene, the three lords who were watching the battle from a distance frowned at the same time.
Lu Ping's three opponents are Iverson, Schultz and Lawrence.
All three of them are Germans and are friends in the real world.
Iverson runs a multinational corporation, while Schultz and Lawrence are two farmers.
Thanks to their incredible luck, the three of them were in the same territories when they first arrived, which laid the foundation for their future cooperation.
With their mutual cooperation, the three of them became level ten lords in just three years.
