When she went to High Pass Town next, she had to ask the Second Prince for help so that she could look for her husband faster.

In addition, there were many generals in High Pass Town.

Other than the Second Prince, she could also ask the other generals to help her.

At this moment, in the Liao army’s camp.

Xiao Yuan, who had been pulling a long face for a long time, finally had a smile on his face today.

This was because the reinforcements he had been waiting for had finally arrived.

In the big tent of the middle regiment.

“Pass down my order. We will attack the town tomorrow morning! Take down High Pass Town in one fell swoop!” Xiao Yuan said after setting out the mission.

After waiting for so long, he had already reached his limit.

If it wasn’t for the fact that the reinforcements had just arrived and they needed to rest, he would have given the order to attack the town tonight.

He would definitely take down High Pass Town!

“Yes, Sir!” All the generals hurriedly answered somewhat excitedly.

“All of you go and prepare!” Xiao Yuan added.

“Yes, Sir!”

After the generals left, Xiao Yuan returned to his desk.

He had to win this battle at all costs, deal the Jin army a heavy blow and take over a large part of the Jin State’s territory.

Only then would the ministers in the court not use this to attack the Empress Dowager.

It would also reduce the Emperor’s suspicion of the Empress Dowager.

At the end of the day, they were not truly mother and son related by blood ties. The relationship between the Emperor and the Empress Dowager was not of the kindly mother and filial son type that it appeared to be on the surface.

This time, he had brought trouble to the Empress Dowager.

Xiao Yuan’s heart felt very heavy at the thought of this.

The next day, just as the sky brightened, the Liao army sounded the horn to attack.

In this attack, the Liao army came charging with fierce momentum. They moved as fast as wolves and their numbers were so great that they resembled a big tide. They constantly attacked the town gate towers of High Pass Town.

Fortunately, the Second Prince was well prepared in advance. His soldiers met the enemy quickly and fought a bloody battle, firmly blocking the Liao soldiers outside the pass.

In a situation where both sides were fighting with all their might, the battle situation was extremely tragic.

Both the Liao and Jin armies suffered heavy casualties.

After half a day, corpses piled up like a mountain outside High Pass Town, and blood flowed like a river at the base of the town gate.

Even though the Liao army had charged up the town gate tower several times, they were all beaten back by the Jin army.

The bravery of the Jin army gave the Liao army a renewed understanding of their adversary.

Xiao Yuan, who was at the front line, had a grave expression on his face when he read the battle report.

He had already arranged for 30,000 troops to attack the three town towers at High Pass Town for half a day, but they had not taken down a single one.

The Second Prince of the Great Jin State certainly lived up to his reputation.

The soldiers under him were indeed unlike those ordinary Jin troops.

However, even so, they could not stop the armored cavalry of their Great Liao State.

“Pass down my order. Continue to attack! For the battalion that breaks through High Pass Town first, its general will be promoted by one rank and all the soldiers under him will be rewarded!” Xiao Yuan said in a deep voice.

“Yes, Sir!” Someone immediately went to report.

Xiao Yuan looked at the map on the desk and was already thinking about how to charge into the Jin territory unchallenged after breaking through High Pass Town.

This time, the Great Liao State had paid such a huge price. He had to make the Jin State pay an even greater price to recover all the losses suffered by their Great Liao State.

Inside High Pass Town.

When the Second Prince and the other generals heard the battle report from the front, they all had grim expressions.

Upon hearing that the Liao army had once again increased their troops to attack the town and had the die-hard mentality of not giving up until they take down the town, the Second Prince’s brows were so tightly knitted that his forehead resembled the Roman numeral III.

“Where is Teacher Qin now?” The Second Prince asked in a deep voice as he looked away from the map.

“According to the report of the scout an hour ago, she should be less than 31 miles away from High Pass Town,” a subordinate bowed and replied.

“Good.” The Second Prince’s eyes flickered with a little hope.

“Pass down my order. Tell the soldiers to hang on. Defend all three town gate towers until Teacher Qin arrives!” he said in a stern voice.

“Yes, Your Highness!” all the generals answered.

When the Second Prince gathered everyone to discuss how to deal with the enemy, he had already decided on a plan.

And that was to gather all the troops and focus on defending the three town gates. They would make use of the geographical advantage to lay waste to as many Liao soldiers as possible.

However, the terrain at the three gates was different, and the distribution of troops was not exactly the same.

As long as the Liao army took a little longer to test, they would be able to find the weakest point and then concentrate more troops to attack there.

In that case, the town gate might very well be broken through.

The Second Prince’s intention was to defend the town at all costs and delay the Liao army from breaking through the town’s defenses until the reinforcements arrived.

When the reinforcements arrived, they could set up an ambush in advance. At that point, they could take the initiative to reveal one flaw and deliberately let the Liao army break through one of the town towers and fall into their trap.

Qin Xiaoyao was known as the “Great Jin State’s God of Massacre.” The members of those few Special Forces Teams under her killed people without any feelings.

Even some of the other elite soldiers, after undergoing Qin Xiaoyao’s training, were all extremely vicious. Those soldiers were the most suitable for carrying out such wipe-out operations

If everything went smoothly, the difference in numbers between them and the Liao army might be even after this battle.

Once that happened, given Xiao Yuan’s cautious personality, perhaps both sides could declare a truce again.

Thus, the battle of High Pass Town continued.

The entire High Pass Town had become a meat grinder venue.

As time passed, Xiao Yuan’s patience was almost exhausted.

As for the Second Prince’s side, his troops were finding it harder to repel the enemies.

Fortunately, Qin Xiaoyao finally arrived before nightfall.

When the Second Prince received the news, he personally led the generals out of the camp to welcome her.

After that, the two sides didn’t exchange any more pleasantries before jumping into the main topic.

Qin Xiaoyao was in full agreement with the Second Prince’s plan.

Thereafter, she and her troops acted in accordance with the Second Prince’s plan.

Not long after night fell, the West Town Gate of High Pass Town was finally broken through by the Liao army.

A large number of Liao soldiers poured into High Pass Town.

When Xiao Yuan heard the news, he was overjoyed.

He deployed another 10,000 troops and they rushed to the west of the town in High Pass Town.

He wanted to use these troops to break through the North Town Gate and South Town Gate in High Pass Town and take down the town completely.

When the Liao army brandished their Liao-style sabers and charged into the west of the town in High Pass Town, they did not know that Qin Xiaoyao had already led her men to set up an ambush and was waiting for them.

When they entered the encirclement, Qin Xiaoyao immediately gave the order to attack.

The Jin army under her was like a horde of divine soldiers from heaven. They suddenly appeared and surprised the Liao soldiers before slaying them mercilessly.

Arrows shot out at the Liao soldiers from all directions and the hapless soldiers fell in droves.

Or a small team would be surrounded, separated from their comrades, and annihilated.

Street battles and small-scale sorties broke out endlessly.

Among the attackers, the most active and ruthless were, of course, those few Special Forces Teams.

As they had familiarized themselves with the terrain, they used this knowledge to their advantage by shuttling through the small alleys repeatedly and chopping off the heads of the Liao soldiers.

Wherever one passed, one could hear the wretched wails of countless Liao soldiers who died.

The night that was supposed to be quiet was filled with the sound of horses’ hooves and all kinds of anguished screams.

When the Liao army charged into the town, they were very excited initially.

They were focused on charging to the north or south of the town and wanted to work with the Liao army outside the town to take down the two town gate towers there.

However, they were constantly attacked along the way, and their numbers were getting smaller and smaller.

After witnessing the Jin troops popping up here and there in mysterious circumstances and their terrifying killing methods, the Liao soldiers were soon afraid. The morale of the Liao army began to waver.

The Jin army in High Pass Town didn’t look like living people, but a group of malicious ghosts.

They appeared and disappeared unpredictably, and they treated living humans as their prey.

Once any Liao soldier became their target, it was difficult to escape their demonic claws.

Many Liao soldiers saw with their own eyes their comrades being killed by these ghosts in front of them. Then, the ghosts even smiled at them in a sinister manner.

All of this had already exceeded what they knew and what they could bear..
