Qin Xiaoyao ate her meal and looked at Chu Jin in between mouthfuls of food. She was not surprised by this news.

“Does that mean that we can take action tonight?’1 If she took action at night, her team would be able to catch them off guard.

Of course, the main reason was that there were two towns near Yellow Flower Town, which were very close to Yellow Flower Town.

“Definitely!” Chu Jin said with some excitement.

Just the thought of recovering lost territory was enough to get him all hyped up.

Qin Xiaoyao then looked at Chu Jin.

“Alright. Then you arrange for 500 people to stay behind. The rest will help me hold the line,” she said.

“Sure!” Chu Jin quickly answered.

He chatted with Qin Xiaoyao for a while longer before leaving.

In the evening, Qin Xiaoyao arrived at the drill ground on time.

After gathering the Special Forces Team members, she took the lead and led the Special Forces Team to set off first.

As they neared the small town next to Yellow Flower Town, the group slowed down and got off their horses.

After that, Qin Xiaoyao sent a few men into the town to gather information.

After confirming that the situation was as she had expected, she launched a sneak attack on the town.

In the end, the battle went more smoothly than expected.

There were only about 100 Liao soldiers left in the town and they had already heard about the incidents in Yellow Flower Town.

After seeing the arrival of the Special Forces Team, most of the Liao soldiers chose to surrender.

In this fashion, Qin Xiaoyao conquered two small towns in one night.

This made Chu Jin, who was following behind, feel that victory had come too easily.

He had thought that after the Special Forces Team had gone inside, he would have to more or less send troops after them and contribute a little effort.

To his surprise, he was only here to go through the motions.

Other than talcing over the territories that Qin Xiaoyao had conquered and helping to detain the surrendered Liao soldiers, he did not help with the fighting at all.

Nonetheless, this was a good outcome.

The more smoothly their operations went, the more it indicated that the Liao army was weak.

If their army had a good start, they would have more confidence in the future.

Over the next two days, Chu Jin s wish came true at last.

Qin Xiaoyao led the Special Forces Team to attack the small towns in the front, while he led the troops to bring up the rear, sending troops to help her at the critical moment.

After talcing down the town, the Imperial Court’s army would take over very quickly.

The speed at which they recovered their lost territory was faster than they had expected.

At the same time, Qin Xiaoyao and Chu Jin finally received their reinforcements.

That was right. The Second Prince had increased their troops.

Qin Xiaoyao also received an official military appointment and became a Colonel of the same rank as Chu Jin.

The newly arrived reinforcement of 5000 troops would be under Qin Xiaoyao’s command.

To Qin Xiaoyao, this was equivalent to doubling her might, like adding wings to a tiger.

Soon, the speed of her attack on Huai County increased.

At the same time, her reputation of being the “Great Jin State’s God of Massacre” quickly spread among the Liao army.

Now, the Liao army was not the only one who had heard about Qin Xiaoyao.

The Great Jin State1 s army and the officials of the Imperial Court also began talking about Qin Xiaoyao.

On this day, Qin Xiaoyao and Chu Jin finally reclaimed Huai County completely.

From the time Qin Xiaoyao started to attack the towns to the time the Jin army reclaimed Huai County completely, it had only been eight days.

The recovery of Huai County had indeed affected the negotiation process between the Liao and Jin States.

With the Second Prince’s personal guarantee, the Imperial Court finally changed its previous attitude and no longer yielded to the envoys of the Liao State like they did in the past.

On this day, Qin Xiaoyao received a new letter and certificate of appointment from the Second Prince.

Due to the recovery of Huai County, Qin Xiaoyao was promoted to the rank of Brigadier General and gained another 5000 troops.

At this point, Qin Xiaoyao already had 10,000 men under her.

Now, not only Chu Jin, but Han Chao had also become her subordinate.

The two of them assisted her in wiping out the Liao troops within the Great Jin Stare.

That was right. The Second Prince had decided to make a big move after stabilizing the situation with the envoy in the Imperial Court.

He was the one who throttled the Liao army and prevented the Liao army reinforcements from entering High Pass Town.

Qin Xiaoyao would then coordinate with him to eliminate the Liao troops in the Jin State as soon as possible.

Thus, they would be able to win the battle between the Liao and Jin States.

The Second Prince did not even dare to dream of such an outcome in the past.

After all, he could not attend to so many things by himself. He could not block the Liao army’s reinforcements and also drive out the Liao army that was rebelling within the Great Jin State at the same time.

However, Qin Xiaoyao’s appearance had given him that hope.

And the probability of that hope becoming a reality was very high.

Qin Xiaoyao’s ability to lead troops in battle was way stronger than he had thought. With the help of such a person, he naturally dared to think more boldly and dared to do more.

The Second Prince wasn’t the only one who was excited at this moment.

Qin Xiaoyao, Chu Jin, and Han Chao were also very excited.

The battle to recover their land had been smooth sailing, so how could they not be excited?

As the number of troops under her command increased, Qin Xiaoyao once again sped up the process of recovering the lost territories.

Not only did her troops lull and capture the Liao soldiers in the Great Jin State, but they also wiped out the bandits along the way.

There was new and positive progress every day.

In an instant, both the Second Prince and the Imperial Court of the Great Jin State were filled with hope.

Some of the courtiers who were originally afraid of the Liao State and wanted to make peace with the Liao State gradually changed their minds.

Since the Great Jin State had such a ferocious general and the Jin soldiers could fight well, they naturally did not need to bow to the Liao State.

At this moment, the Liao army was becoming more and more impatient.

As time passed, the Liao army within the Great Jin State did nor receive any reinforcements and was trapped within the Great Jin State.

In the beginning, they could still burn, kill, pillage, and plunder resources from Great Jin State s land.

However, this piece of land that had just suffered from the famine had limited resources.

With the passage of time, they faced problems with their military supplies.

In addition, Qin Xiaoyao and the others were closing in step by step, and many Liao soldiers were fearful. In their despair, they didn’t even have rhe heart to resist their enemies.

According to Qin Xiaoyao’s policy, as long as they weren’t the main instigator, the soldiers who surrendered wouldn’t have to die.

After that, the Jin and Liao States would exchange captives, and those soldiers would still have a chance to return to the Liao State.

Han Chao was the one who had suggested not killing the captives.

When he first brought it up. he was met with opposition from everyone.

After all, the Liao army in the Great Jin State had lulled so many people in the Great Jin State. Not one of the soldiers was innocent.

However, Han Chao still managed to convince Qin Xiaoyao in the end.

There were two reasons. Firstly, if they were to exterminate the Liao army, it would arouse their desire to rebel.

In the situation where there was no way out, the Liao army could only fight them to the death.

This way, it would be more difficult for them to recover their lost territory, and their progress would be slowed down.

Secondly, when the states were negotiating, exchanging captives had always been a common topic. The captured soldiers and civilians were valuable.

When they captured the Liao soldiers, they could use these people to exchange for the Jin soldiers and civilians who had been captured by the Liao army.

Of course, they could also exchange them for money and food as long as the two sides could come to an agreement.

Exchanging captives, or rather trading captives, was actually a positive thing for both states.

Another three days passed.

On this day, Qin Xiaoyao personally directed the Special Forces Team led by Huang Fei and successfully took down a county town in Ming County.

That was right. As Qin Xiaoyao’s military strength increased, she expanded the size of the Special Forces Team.

Now, she had 5 Special Forces Teams of 35 men each under her.

Huang Fei and the other three, as well as Liu San, became the team leaders of these five teams.

They acted as the vanguard, charging at the front line to recover lost territories..
