The rebel army's foremost master craftsman forged a million iron pylons!

"What's your name?" Qi Yong asked with a smile as he walked up to Wu Laoliu.

He was a notorious smiling tiger in the Sanshui Military Prefecture, with exceptionally cruel methods and a penchant for using torture to interrogate prisoners.

"Heh," Wu Laoliu sneered, not bothering to answer.

Qi Yong wasn't angry. He took out several portraits from his body, compared them one by one, and then smiled.

"Found you. Your name is Wu Laoliu, an ordinary soldier from Wolf Head Fortress."

"You already know, why are you asking?" Wu Laoliu responded with a cold laugh.

Qi Yong paused for a moment, a shadow falling over his face, but he still smiled and said, "Not bad, you single-handedly cut down six of our armored men, you're a real man."

"If you can tell me the whereabouts of Li Tian and his group, I can let you join my camp as a soldier. The monthly salary is five qian of silver. What do you think?"

As he spoke, Qi Yong took out a large ingot of silver from his pocket and handed it to Wu Laoliu.

A glint of greed flashed in Wu Laoliu's eyes. He took the silver with both hands, and just when Qi Yong thought Wu Laoliu was about to surrender, Wu Laoliu grabbed the silver and smashed it hard on Qi Yong's head.

"Go to hell."

Immediately afterwards, Wu Laoliu kicked Qi Yong hard in the waist and ran away.

With over thirty iron cavalry guarding him, Wu Laoliu knew he couldn't escape, but he was determined to die. He knew the imperial soldiers were cruel, and falling into their hands was worse than death.

brush!

As soon as Wu Laoliu made a move, three cavalrymen charged towards him. The cavalrymen did not use weapons, but instead used lassoes.

Before he could run two steps, Wu Laoliu was caught by the neck with a lasso pole and dragged back to Qi Yong.

Qi Yong's head was smashed open and bleeding profusely. A murderous glint flashed in his eyes. With a whoosh, he drew a long knife from his waist and slashed fiercely at Wu Laoliu's neck.

"Traitor, today we cut off your head, and tomorrow we will hang it on the walls of Wolf Head Fortress for all to see."

Just as the knife was about to fall on Wu Laoliu's neck, someone suddenly shouted from behind, "Centurion Qi, Lieutenant Su has orders."

Qi Yong turned around and saw that it was Su Xiong's messenger. He had no choice but to put away his sword with dissatisfaction and ask in a lukewarm tone.

"What orders has Commander Su given?"

The messenger didn't dismount, but simply clasped his hands in a fist salute on horseback. "Captain Su has ordered that after capturing the traitor, he must keep him alive so he can interrogate him personally."

Qi Yong cursed under his breath, then cupped his hands in a salute to the messenger and said with a forced smile.

"Thank you for delivering the message, brother. I will take the traitor back to the camp immediately."

With a whoosh, the messenger immediately turned his horse around and rode away into the distance.

Only Qi Yong and his thirty-odd cavalrymen remained on the field.

Qi Yong glanced coldly at Wu Laoliu, who was standing still, and sneered, "You're lucky to be alive today."

As he spoke, Qi Yong turned around and shouted, "Men, tie this traitor up and hand him over to Captain Su immediately!"

Immediately, two armored men came over, tied Wu Laoliu up tightly with ropes, and then escorted him onto a prison van.

Squeak.

As the prison cart started moving, a group of more than thirty cavalrymen escorted it slowly toward Su Xiong's military camp.

Qi Yong rode a tall horse, fiddling with two objects in his hands.

"One of them was a crossbow that was taken from Wu Laoliu."

"The other one is the repeating crossbow on Wu Laoliu's body."

Qi Yong first examined the crossbow several times, then nocked a small black arrow and gently pressed the trigger.

With a whoosh, the arrow flew more than two hundred meters forward and became firmly embedded in a large tree.

It can actually shoot that far.

Qi Yong was extremely surprised.

He glanced at the repeating crossbow in his hand again, finding it increasingly strange.

This small repeating crossbow can actually fire three arrows at once?

I've never seen equipment like this before.

Qi Yong couldn't help but glance back at Wu Laoliu in the prison cart, thinking to himself, "I didn't expect this group of rebels to have such weapons. I must interrogate this guy properly later."

"You son of a bitch!"

Seeing that this thieving convict dared to touch the weapon that Li Tianwu had personally crafted for him, Wu Laoliu was so angry that he cursed inwardly.

He gently closed his eyes, seemingly asleep, but secretly pulled a small file from the back of his clothes.

One advantage of being a blacksmith is that you can make any tool you want.

Squeeze!

Wu Laoliu began to use a file to smooth the rope tied to his wrists.

As it was dark, no one noticed Wu Laoliu's actions.

One, two, a hundred...

Thanks to Wu Laoliu's tireless efforts, the rope binding his hands was finally worn through and developed a crack.

Immediately afterwards, Wu Laoliu exerted force with both hands, and with a bang, the rope binding his wrists was broken off.

Wu Laoliu opened his eyes and carefully observed the surrounding situation. He saw that the cavalrymen around him were sitting listlessly on their horses, and no one noticed his movements at all.

Overjoyed, Wu Laoliu secretly leaned back and began to grind the wooden fence behind him with the file in his hand.

There are four fence posts in total.

Wu Laoliu would only grind one bar at a time, and he wouldn't cut it all off. He would wait until the fence became loose before moving on to the next bar.

After about an hour, all four fences had loosened.

Overjoyed, Wu Laoliu opened his eyes again to observe his surroundings, only to find himself surrounded by a dark mountain range.

His prison van was passing by a slope.

Bang!

There was not a single sign.

Wu Laoliu used all his strength to lean back violently, smashing the prison cart to pieces and jumping off.

Before anyone could react, Wu Laoliu braced himself with his hands on the ground and ran into the woods at the fastest speed he had ever run.

"What happened?"

Only after Wu Laoliu had disappeared from sight did the escorting cavalry realize what had happened.

Looking at the empty prison wagon on the ground, a soldier suddenly shouted, "Centurion Qi, something terrible has happened! The prisoners have escaped from the wagon!"

With a whoosh, all the cavalrymen looked up at the prison cart on the ground, their expressions changing drastically. The prisoners had actually escaped.

Qi Yong also looked back, furious. So many people were watching Wu Laoliu, and he still managed to get away. Is there no law in this world?

"What are you all standing there for? Go after them!" Qi Yong shouted angrily.

tread!tread!tread!

A dozen or so cavalrymen charged into the woods. It was dark and they couldn't see anything, so they lit torches and searched carefully.

But by the time the torches were lit, the daylilies had gone cold.

Old Wu's figure had already appeared a mile away from this place. In such a dark environment, coupled with the obstruction of many trees, no matter how hard the thirty-odd people tried, they would not be able to find Old Wu.
