A few minutes later, the enemy arrived at the city.
Iverson then ordered 20,000 heavy cavalry to dismount and form a battle line.
It is obvious that heavy cavalry cannot ride horses when attacking a city.
But Iverson never dreamed that his order almost cost him his life.
"kill!"
Seeing that the heavy cavalry had completed their formation, Iverson immediately gave the order to attack the city.
"kill!"
"kill!"
Upon receiving the order, 20,000 heavy cavalry rushed towards the city wall like a tide.
For a moment, the shouts and cries of killing shook the sky.
"Shoot!"
Seeing the enemy troops entering the shooting range, Xu Shiji roared angrily.
Suddenly, the archers on the city wall drew their bows and arrows, shooting out wave after wave of arrows.
Facing the enemy's counterattack rain of arrows, Iverson simply disdained it. A fifth-level lord had no more than 4,000 soldiers, so how could he possibly withstand the attack of 20,000 heavy cavalry.
But soon, Iverson realized that something was wrong.
Judging from the number of arrows shot from the city, the defenders were obviously more than four thousand people.
"Damn, this guy is pretty strong!"
Seeing this, Iverson snorted coldly.
Even if the military strength was doubled, it would not be able to stop the attack of his 20,000 heavy cavalry.
Soon, the heavy cavalry rushed to the city.
Afterwards, the two sides engaged in a fierce fight.
For a moment, there was shouting and killing.
It has to be admitted that even when heavy cavalry dismounted to fight, their combat effectiveness was far greater than that of infantry.
Although the defenders had the advantage of the city walls, they were quickly suppressed.
If it weren't for Xu Shiji's proper command, they would not have been able to hold out for long.
"Hahaha! You're finished. You think a mere level five city can stop me?"
Seeing this, Iverson burst into laughter.
But the next moment, Iverson's laughter stopped abruptly.
He saw that a team was coming quickly from two thousand meters away.
And this team was actually a cavalry!
Seeing this, Iverson's face changed drastically.
There is no need to think about it, this cavalry team must be from Lu Ping.
"Quick, retreat!"
"Get on your horses and prepare to meet the enemy."
Iverson hurriedly gave an order and turned and ran without hesitation.
Iverson is not a newbie who knows nothing. The situation before him is already very clear. The opposing cavalry will arrive in a blink of an eye, and his cavalry has not yet withdrawn. Can heavy cavalry without war horses still be called heavy cavalry?
If he doesn't run away now, he will definitely lose his life here.
“Boom—”
The earth trembled and smoke and dust filled the air.
Twenty thousand cavalrymen came roaring like a whirlwind and rushed into the enemy army in the blink of an eye.
In an instant, screams resounded through the sky.
With just one charge, the enemy suffered a devastating blow.
By this time, Iverson had already escaped.
The lord fled, and the soldiers lost their fighting spirit. Faced with the heavy cavalry charge, they immediately fled in all directions.
Of course Su Dingfang would not let them go, and continued to lead his troops to chase them for more than ten miles before calling off the attack.
In less than an hour, Iverson's 20,000 heavy cavalry were almost completely wiped out, with less than a thousand people escaping.
…
At the same time, Lu Ping was also fighting fiercely with the enemy.
Early this morning, as soon as Iverson set out, the enemy launched an attack on Lu Ping. The battle has now lasted for two hours.
Lu Ping estimated that the enemy's attack today would be fierce, but he didn't expect it to be to this extent. It was simply a gamble.
But Lu Ping was not panicked at all. After the upgrade, he had a strong army and no matter how crazy the enemy was, they would not be able to break through the city.
Not to mention that Lu Ping only needs to wait one more day, and the army led by Yue Fei will launch an attack on the enemy's lair.
By then, the situation will be reversed immediately.
The battle lasted until noon, when Lawrence and Schultz called off the battle.
At this time, Iverson also fled back to the camp.
Seeing Iverson returning in such a mess, Lawrence and the others were shocked.
They couldn't understand how 20,000 heavy cavalry could fail in attacking a fourth-level city.
But then they learned that Iverson had been ambushed by Lu Ping's cavalry, and that Lu Ping's cavalry had been lying in ambush outside the city.
Upon hearing the news, Lawrence and Aberk both gasped.
At this moment, they felt Lu Ping's terror.
"Damn it! We all underestimated that bastard Lu Ping!"
After a long time, Lawrence couldn't help but curse.
"Yeah, this guy is really insidious."
Iverson sighed and said.
"What do we do now?"
"I think we should retreat if it doesn't work. Otherwise, we can only send more troops. Otherwise, we can't defeat him with the current force."
Schultz frowned.
"Of course we can't retreat. We must kill Lu Ping."
Lawrence said immediately.
"Okay, since you said so, then we will send more troops."
"Each family will increase their troops by 20,000, so that we can have an additional 60,000 soldiers available."
"Even if it takes time, we can wear him out."
After the discussion, Iverson and the other two immediately gave orders to the defenders of their respective main cities, ordering them to send troops to reinforce the front line immediately.
Upon receiving the order, the remaining generals immediately mobilized their troops.
Soon, 60,000 troops marched towards the front line.
Yue Fei had already deployed scouts near the main city of Iverson and the other two.
Therefore, as soon as the reinforcements set out, Yue Fei received news from the scouts.
Upon hearing the news, Yue Fei laughed three times on the spot.
"Hahaha! God is really helping me!"
…
A moment later, Lu Ping also received the news from Yue Fei.
Lu Ping was also overjoyed when he learned that Iverson and the other two had sent reinforcements.
