Nie Yun, Tuoba Yue, and the others moved towards Lü Tu in an instant, shielding him behind them.
"Big brother?"
The enemy's numbers were clearly greater than Lü Tu's. Zhao Qingyao and Prince Duan also looked over nervously: "General Lü?"
Lu Tu completely ignored Zhao Qingyao and the other man, and shouted loudly, "Archers, prepare!"
Prince Duan was taken aback: "Lu Tu, shouldn't we check who the other party is first?"
Lu Tu looked at the white-robed young general leading the opposing army. He had a handsome face and an extraordinary aura, and his age was about the same as Lu Tu's.
“I don’t know this person at all, Prince Duan, you don’t need to worry about him.”
As soon as Lü Tu finished speaking, all the soldiers picked up their composite bows and fired a volley.
At the same time, the opposing junior officer also spotted the unusually tall Lü Tu in the crowd and waved his hand, shouting, "Kill Lü Tu, this traitor, and protect the princess!"
He saw Lü Tu Fang's cavalry, who all raised their bows and arrows in unison. He sneered disdainfully, "Is that all the men you have? They're not even enough to fill my teeth!"
But the next second, a barrage of arrows rained down on their own army, wave after wave, with strange, unfamiliar objects attached to each arrow.
The young general in white robes was shocked! He had never seen a bow with such a firing rate. Even the most skilled horse archer was considered top-notch if he could fire five shots in a short period of time.
These waves of arrows were launched from a distance far beyond the range of his own arrows, which was completely beyond his comprehension.
But his order had already been given, and it was too late to call for the army to defend.
War is not child's play, let alone the fact that their Shence Army cannot keep orders.
He immediately ordered a retreat after issuing the order to charge. Even Lu Tu wouldn't dare to do that to his own soldiers. It was so sudden that no one could react!
Furthermore, such a back-and-forth movement would completely deplete the morale of one's own side. How would you then decide whether the enemy soldiers should charge or retreat?
The volley of arrows, even before the detonators on the arrows were ignited, had already caused the young general in white to make a huge mistake.
Lu Tu shook his head slightly. He suddenly shot out the flaming arrow in his hand. He knew that the outcome of the battle was decided the moment the arrow fell!
As expected, as Lu Tu's arrow fell, a series of booming sounds came from around the white-robed young general, instantly blasting thousands of the enemy's Shence Army into chaos, with cries of agony filling the air!
Zhao Qingyao had only heard the continuous explosions coming from outside while she was in the Commandant's Mansion. Now that she had witnessed it with her own eyes, she exclaimed in shock, "General Lü, what is this thing? It has such power!"
Prince Duan, watching from the side, rubbed his teeth excitedly and exclaimed, "How delightful!"
Seeing that the enemy's defeat was inevitable, Lü Tu waved his hand and shouted, "Those who resist will be killed! Those who surrender will live!"
After speaking, he glanced indifferently at Prince Duan and his companion. These two were from the royal family, and although they treated Lü Tu well, they actually looked down on Lü Tu and his ilk from the bottom of their hearts.
Not to mention the soldiers fighting for them, human life is worthless in their eyes.
Prince Duan asked in confusion, "General Lü, why not kill them all? These guys are clearly Ye Qingyu's men; they're all traitors!"
Lu Tu didn't bother to answer him. After having a small team of several people form a guard to protect Zhao Qingyao's safety, he resolutely followed to clean up the battlefield.
His goal was clear: although the crisis wasn't aimed at him, it would still drag him into the vortex.
Perhaps she was already involved when she first became enemies with Ye Qingyu.
Although there are many more enemies than his own, danger and opportunity always go hand in hand. If Lü Tu can seize this opportunity, he can still quickly build up his own power.
After all, since ancient times, chaotic times have produced heroes, precisely because there is no normal order in chaotic times, all rules can be disrupted, and only the bold and meticulous will become the ultimate winners.
Lu Tu would naturally not give up any opportunity that might strengthen his own power, no matter how weak these Shence Army soldiers were in combat.
They were no good, but that was only because of the explosives and composite bows used by Lü Tu, which made them look bad. But in Wuchuan, let alone the fighting strength of their army formations, their individual combat capabilities far surpassed those of the Wuchuan border troops.
Moreover, these people are well-equipped, and the swords, spears, and armor they use are the best in the Great Yu Dynasty. These are all very important resources. Once he can win over some of the surrendered troops, Lü Tu is confident that he can win them over.
Lu Tu's target was clear: the young general in white robes. The young general scrambled from the ground onto his horse, his silver spear flashing with a cold light, and charged straight at Lu Tu.
"So you are that Lü Tu Xiao Xiao?"
His actions truly surprised Lü Tu. Even when his side suffered its first defeat and heavy losses, he resolutely did not let him escape, but instead charged towards him. Lü Tu admired this.
"Who are you, you coward, state your name!" Lu Tu also stepped forward with his halberd. Seeing this, the others naturally found new opponents and gave Lu Tu and the white-robed young general a chance to fight fairly.
After all, their duel will largely determine the outcome of this battle.
"I am Bai Ze!"
Lu Tu's eyes blazed with a fighting spirit he hadn't seen in a long time. He spurred his horse, and his warhorse, Little Black, charged forward.
The halberd and the silver spear collided in mid-air, producing a metallic clang. The two horses jerked their feet apart, and both men turned around, their eyes showing a slight look of shock.
Bai Ze switched the gleaming silver spear to the other hand, and his right hand, hidden behind the horse's head, was trembling involuntarily.
But he still forced himself to remain calm and shouted angrily, "I have long heard of the fierce general Lü Tu in Wuchuan, who is incredibly brave. Seeing him today, I can see that his reputation is well-deserved!"
Lu Tu pointed his halberd at Bai Ze: "Flattery won't work, I'll still cut you down!"
At this moment, Bai Ze naturally felt the powerful pressure emanating from Lü Tu, and he never expected Lü Tu to be so brave.
His original orders were to attack Kuishan Village, but on his way there, he heard from his scouts that Lü Tu was leading an attack on Wuchuan City. That's why he disobeyed orders and led his troops to ambush and kill Lü Tu.
Thinking that as long as Lü Tu was killed, Kuishan Village would be nothing more than a small mountain village, and he could easily send some men to deal with it.
But to his utter surprise, not only was Lu Tu incredibly brave, but the attack power of his cavalry was also unbelievably strong, completely beyond his control!
