Chapter 418 Meeting an Old Friend in a Foreign Land



Before long, Lü Tu arrived at the interrogation room located in the training ground. This was the place where Lü Tu had previously imprisoned Sai Muhe, and it was later specially set aside for interrogation purposes, since there were quite a few things inside that could be used to torture people.

Even from a distance, Lu Tu could see shadowy figures inside through the light. He didn't even need to see their faces clearly to know who was inside.

As soon as I got closer, I heard a rough voice yelling, "Fuck your grandpa, if you have the guts, kill me!"

Inside, Nie Yun, who was holding a small knife, chuckled and said, "If you fall into our hands, it'll be hard to die. Quickly tell us the Red Turban Army's troop deployment!"

"Deploy your mother's legs, I'll deploy your mother!"

Nie Yun got angry and kicked the man in the leg wound: "I'll teach you to be stubborn."

Lu Tu walked in at that moment, and everyone stopped what they were doing and bowed to him in unison: "Big Brother!"

The burly man on the ground, his forehead covered in sweat, stared at Lü Tu with bloodshot eyes: "Who are you?"

Lu Tu sat in the chair in front of him, looking down at him condescendingly: "You don't even know who you're fighting, what an idiot!"

"You're Lü Tu? My name is Mo Tao!"

Lu Tu stared at him calmly: "I heard you're very tough? Tougher than your mouth?"

Mo Tao spat out a mouthful of blood: "I had heard that Wu Chuan Lü Tu was a great hero who fought against the Wu Huan, but who would have thought that she was just a sinister woman who only knew how to use despicable methods to extract confessions."

"Fuck you..." Liu Yang, Nie Yun, Tuoba Yue, Sun Kuang and others present were about to make a move when they heard this, but Lu Tu stopped them.

"Let him curse. 3,000 soldiers against 300 men, not only were they all wiped out but their commander was also captured. They have no face to live without committing seppuku."

Upon hearing Lü Tu's words, Mo Tao's eyes turned bloodshot, and he roared at Lü Tu, "What kind of sorcery did I use? So many of my brothers died instantly? If you dare to fight me for real, I can plow your men ten times over!"

These words were undoubtedly the funniest joke for everyone present, and everyone burst into laughter.

After all, these were veterans who had fought alongside Lü Tu, the ones who had wiped out the Wuhuan Saili tribe with 800 cavalry. Could they be provoked by Mo Tao's words?

These laughs were like a jolt to Mo Tao's very nerves. He was also a commander, and as Lu Tu had said, watching his brothers die one by one in front of him was more painful than being killed directly!

"Lu Tu, if you dare to kill the Wuhuan dogs, I, Mo Tao, respect you as a man. But do you dare to kill me?"

Lu Tu shook his head: "I won't kill you, and I'll let you meet some old friends."

Upon hearing this, Mo Tao was dumbfounded. His mind raced, considering many possibilities, before he finally roared, "Lu Tu, is it possible that a spy betrayed our internal intelligence, giving you the opportunity to annihilate all my men at Luan Shi Gang?"

Lu Tu curled his lip in disdain: "With your rabble, why would I need spies?"

Soon, the sound of rapid hoofbeats came from outside. When Xiang Ze and the Feng brothers appeared at the door and met Mo Tao's gaze, Mo Tao was so shocked that he stood up abruptly: "Brother Xiang, what are you doing here? And the Feng brothers, were you also captured by these bastards?"

Lu Tu waved his hand, signaling Liu Yang, Nie Yun, and the others to step back. Seeing Lu Tu's gesture, Xiang Ze stepped forward without hesitation and untied Mo Tao's ropes: "Brother Mo, long time no see, what's wrong..."

"Sigh!" Mo Tao seemed to have a thousand words stuck in his throat, but when he thought about such a big defeat, all he could do was sigh helplessly.

Lu Tu waved to Liu Yang and the others: "Come on, come with me to admire the moon."

"Huh?" Of course they knew that Lü Tu wanted to leave some space for Xiang Ze and Mo Tao, but wasn't it a bit too ambiguous to say that several grown men were going out to admire the moon together?

But they dared not refute Lü Tu, and followed him to a spot not far from the door, where they sat down on the ground.

Liu Yang asked curiously, "Brother, do you think Xiang Ze can persuade Mo Tao to surrender?"

Nie Yun shook his head: "I think it's difficult. After all, that guy has a lot of backbone, plus we killed so many people."

Lu Tu laughed and said, "I think there's an eight or nine out of ten chance he'll agree."

"Why, bro?"

Only Lü Tu knew Xiang Ze's former status within the Red Turban Army. He was a high-ranking manager and an important participant in the Red Turban Rebellion. His prestige within the Red Turban Army was not to be underestimated. Besides, meeting an old friend from another place was a joyous occasion.

But all of this is based on the premise that Xiang Ze did not lie to Lü Tu. Therefore, Lü Tu took advantage of Mo Tao's capture to test Xiang Ze and make progress on the subsequent events.

Lu Tu interrupted everyone, saying, "Whether it works or not will be clear in a moment. Look up at the stars, and I'll teach you how to find your way at night!"

Sun Kuang muttered, "Big brother, we will."

Lu Tu glared at me: "Listen up, you too! Starting tomorrow, you'll be in charge of teaching the entire army how to orient themselves at night!"

Then Lü Tu briefly explained how to use the Big Dipper and Polaris to distinguish directions: "In spring, the handle of the Big Dipper points east; in summer, south; in autumn, west; and in winter, north. Remember these! Until I make a compass, you will teach the other soldiers according to this."

"Yes, sir!" Before listening, everyone thought that Lu Tu would let them identify it by the moon, but they didn't expect it to be the Big Dipper. If Lu Tu hadn't taught them, they really wouldn't have recognized it.

Furthermore, it changes according to the seasons. With just this one move, everyone was shocked by Lu Tu's vast knowledge and insight. After all, these things were considered common sense in Lu Tu's previous life, and now they are considered popular knowledge.

Soon, Feng Lie walked over, cupped his hands, and said, "General, Mo Tao is willing to speak."

Lu Tu stood up, patted his butt, and said, "Let's go and listen to how our General Zhang Chengyan deploys his troops."

The crowd couldn't hide their joy. The enemy had an army of 300,000! If they could annihilate this army, what a great achievement that would be!

When Lü Tu entered the interrogation room, he saw Mo Tao eating a steamed bun. Xiang Ze stood up and explained, "Big brother..."

Lu Tu waved his hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Xiang Ze nodded: "Mo Tao and I have actually known each other for a long time, and he's even my sworn brother. I never imagined that after I was ostracized, he would end up like this. Fortunately, he met me this time, otherwise..."

Lu Tu wasn't in a hurry. He waited for Mo Tao to finish eating before urging him to finish. He even had Feng Lie bring over a bowl of wine, giving Mo Tao plenty of face.

After eating and drinking his fill, Mo Tao's gaze towards Lü Tu softened considerably: "Thank you! I've thought it through. I'm willing to tell you everything I know. We actually have more than 300,000 people. Just yesterday, reinforcements from Qingzhou arrived, bringing our total to 500,000!"

Upon hearing this, a collective gasp of astonishment rippled through the crowd!
