Of course, the interrogation process was not smooth. Both the Japanese and the desperate people who used a large sum of money from the Qing Dynasty would not confess honestly. During the interrogation, the performance of these two types of people was very different. The Japanese were speechless and silent; while the desperate people were erect, with their belly folded, their eyebrows and eyes tilted, and they looked like they were not going to be able to do anything, and they were dead.

However, East China ** would not be polite to them and would be punished if they didn't ask for it. After receiving the news, Qingdao was quite shocked. Therefore, he specially dispatched 12 capable personnel from the Ministry of Security to rush to the camp to assist in the camp for interrogation. He also found several good torture experts from the Luzhou Prefecture's yamen, all of whom were known as "the people who made copper and iron, and they would be crushed into noodles in their hands." These people were indeed professionals. Generally, after torture, the desperate people recruited by the Qing royal family with a large amount of money, although they were all hoisted, but they could not torture them and recruited everything they knew.

But in this regard, the Japanese's tenacity was obviously much stronger than the desperate people recruited by the Qing royal family with a lot of money. If they were tortured, only one person could not bear it and confessed, while the others still gritted their teeth. Now even a few good men from Luzhou Prefecture could not do anything to them, but only one person's confession was obviously not enough. If they strengthened the torture, two people could not bear it and died.

Of course, the camp did not dare to impose additional sentences on the Japanese, but at this time, Qingdao sent another set of modified electrocution equipment to allow the Japanese to compensate for modern torture instruments. As a result, the electrocution was obviously much more severe than the local punishment. After one electrocution, more than half of the Japanese could not withstand it. When the second round was in the second round, only one person was left to resist the force, but he could not withstand the third round of electricity. Finally, he honestly confessed all of Japan's arrangement plans, and even the 12 Japanese spies lurking in the camp were recruited.

The camp quickly followed the map and arrested all the other lurking Japanese spies. And they were not at ease, so they interrogated the captured Japanese spies and determined that all the Japanese spies in the camp were arrested before they were considered to be over. At this time, the conspiracy attacks between the Qing court and Japan jointly against the camp were completely crushed.

After Xie Tao and Zhu Nanzhen fully understood the Japanese's entire plan, they were also scared and sweated. Frankly speaking, the Japanese's plan was indeed very clever and meticulous. Even the Red Lotus Sect was played with by them, and Japan actually imitated the mortar. It can be said that if Luo Yue's plan to get was not successful, the Japanese's plan would have been really likely to have been accomplished. Once the Japanese succeeded, the camp would inevitably suffer major losses. The two of them took advantage of the disaster relief opportunity to gain experience.

Although the result of the interrogation was released, it involved the Qing court and Japan, and it had a great relationship. Of course, Xie Tao and Zhu Nanzhen could not handle it. In fact, let alone the two of them could not handle it, even Shanghai could not handle it. They could only hand it over to Qingdao for processing. Therefore, Shanghai first sent two destroyers to bring all the prisoners, seized documents and the results of the interrogation back to Shanghai. Qingdao sent two cruisers, Qingzhou and Yizhou, and then escorted all the people to Qingdao.

Of course, when the interrogation results came out, it was more than ten days later, and when these people were sent away, it was almost a month. Of course, they had nothing to do with Luo Yue, because he had already led his troops out of the camp to fight the Red Lotus Sect's army.

Although it took two days to implement his own attempt to get, the Red Lotus Sect's army obviously did not seize this opportunity to march. When Luo Yue led the team to Lilingang, which was only more than 10 kilometers away from Lu'an Prefecture, the Red Lotus Sect's army remained in the city without any movement.

It turned out that after the Red Lotus Sect's army captured Lu'an Prefecture, it did not immediately march towards Luzhou Prefecture, but collected materials, recruited believers, and expanded its strength. After all, although the Red Lotus Sect's troops was inspired by the Japanese who were infiltrated into the sect, the manpower and material resources of Yingzhou Prefecture had been exhausted, which was also an important reason. Although it was not a big place to capture Lu'an Prefecture, it was also a prefecture city with a lot of population, food, and materials. Naturally, it had to search for troops in Lu'an Prefecture, and of course there was no time to march towards Luzhou Prefecture.

As a result, the People's Army approached Lu'an Prefecture, and the Red Lotus Army reacted. However, when they learned that the People's Army had only 15,600 people, they were relieved. The Red Lotus Army sent troops to attack Lu'an Prefecture this time and dispatched more than 30,000 troops. After occupying Lu'an Prefecture, they also deceived and recruited more than 10,000 people. Now the total strength is about 45,000, but the weapons are basically cold weapons such as swords, guns, swords and halberds, and only more than 500 rifles.

However, although the People's Army has a small number, it has approached Lu'an Prefecture, so the Red Lotus Cult Army can no longer stay in Lu'an City. After discussing with several envoys, the leader decided to dispatch 30,000 troops to fight, of which 25,000 were troops brought from Yingzhou Prefecture, and 5,000 were troops recruited in Lu'an Prefecture. Although these people have also heard that the People's Army has strong combat power, the number of the Red Lotus Cult Army is now about 20 times that of the People's Army, and several people also believe that the chance of victory is at least 70%.

The two sides formed a formation at the Dadinggang, about 8 kilometers away from Lu'an Prefecture, and started a battle.

First of all, the Red Lotus Cult Army launched the advance. However, although the number of people in the People's Army was small, various rifles, aircraft, mortars, grenades and other weapons opened fire together. With its powerful firepower, it steadily defended its position. The Red Lotus Cult Army suffered heavy casualties, corpses were everywhere, and blood was flowing.

However, although the Red Lotus Cult Army suffered heavy casualties, the offensive was not reduced at all, and the momentum of the offensive remained unchanged, as if no one died in front of them existed, and while attacking, they were also reciting some formulas. The two battalions brought by Luo Yue were old-name troops, with veterans accounting for more than half, but it was the first time that they had seen such a combat method, because this was not a war at all, it was a unilateral massacre, and the other party was like deliberately giving away heads. No matter how many people died in front of them, the people behind them were moving forward without changing their faces. Even the Japanese army, which was known for not being afraid of casualties on the battlefield, would not be like this, but almost deliberately giving away their hearts. Therefore, some new recruits from the People's Army were fighting, and they felt panicked.

But this situation was long as Luo Yue expected, because the Red Lotus Cult Army was different from other armies, and was brainwashed with religious ideas. Either they really did not refuse to fear death, or they believed that they were protected by gods and would not be in trouble. The former was generally the religious army in Europe, while China was usually the latter. In the Boxer Rebellion 7 years ago, the Boxer Rebellion at that time really believed that magic could make itself invulnerable to swords and guns and fight against modern weapons. But no matter which one, it was in short, it would not be possible to measure this army by the standards of normal army.

Of course, it is not difficult to deal with such an army. First, in such an army, there are not many people who truly believe in it. Most people only have a herd mentality. When others believe, they will follow the letter. As long as the casualties of the army reach a certain level, this trust will be reduced. The final loss is of course the premise is to have enough ammunition to make the casualties of the enemy reach the critical value; the other is to directly attack the main general of the enemy. The spirit of this army is generally placed on the main general. The soldiers believe that the main general has magic. Usually in battle, the main general will act as a method of placing a posture in this formation to strengthen the confidence of the soldiers. However, as long as the main general is attacked, even if he is not killed or injured, he will retreat backwards, it will greatly shake the confidence of the soldiers.

Of course, Luo Yue's troops carried sufficient ammunition, but they were unwilling to cause more damage. After all, the other party was basically ordinary people. First, it was forced by life and could not continue to live, so they joined the Red Lotus Sect. Second, they were deceived by the Red Lotus Sect's tricks, thinking that the Red Lotus Sect really had some tricks, so they tried to reduce the damage to these people.

So when the battle entered the stage of confrontation, Luo Yue ordered two companies to attack from the left and right wings, bypass the main battlefield, and directly attack the rear formation of the Red Lotus Army, because Luo Yue had already seen with a telescope that there was indeed a group of people in the Red Lotus Army's formation where the Bu Gang method was pretending, which looked very lively.

If it is a regular army, even if it is an attack, it will also be placed on its left and right wings. Unfortunately, the Red Lotus Cult Army does not understand these common sense of combat at all. Although the Japanese who were involved in the Red Lotus Cult have understood a little, they will not teach the Red Lotus Cult. Therefore, the two companies of the People's Army marched from the left and right wings without any obstacles. They successfully bypassed the battlefield and rushed into the main formation of the Red Lotus Cult Army.

Although the Red Lotus Cult Army did not have defenses on the left and right wings, the main formation still had a considerable amount of troops. Seeing the People's Army approaching, they hurriedly dispatched troops from the formation to fight. Of course, the number of People's Army approaching from the left and right wings was not large, with only about 200 people, so they didn't care much at all.

Seeing that the Red Lotus Cultivator Army was coming up, the People's Army could not advance any more and immediately set up positions to fight. After all, if we advance again, we would have to fight with the Red Lotus Cultivator Army. However, although the People's Army did not advance any more, it immediately set up a mortar in the position and shelled the main formation of the Red Lotus Cultivator Army, because within this distance, the range of the mortar was enough.
