“Of course!” Qin Xiaoyao replied.
She immediately looked at the other members of the Special Forces Team.
“Follow me and kill our way out. We will assist General Zhao and kill all the Liao scumbags!” she said.
“Yes, Leader!” the Special Forces Team members quickly responded.
Then, the group of people moved quickly and killed their way out of the courtyard.
On the streets, when Qin Xiaoyao and her team appeared, they quickly turned the tide of the battle.
Initially, Zhao Shikuan was full of despair, but when he saw that people from the Special Forces Team had come to help, his eyes were filled with hope once more.
“Kill! Kill all these Liao scumbags!” Zhao Shikuan suddenly hollered.
He raised his saber and slashed at the Liao soldier closest to him.
At this point, when Zhao Shikuan’s men saw that reinforcements had arrived, their morale was greatly boosted, and they once again fought the Liao troops with valor.
In addition, Qin Xiaoyao and the others had superior martial strength. In a short while, they had slain all the Liao soldiers who were engaging them in battle.
“General Qin!” Zhao Shikuan’s sharp eyes spotted Qin Xiaoyao, and he quickly walked toward her.
“General Zhao!” Qin Xiaoyao replied with a smile.
“Thank you for your help, General Qin!” Zhao Shikuan quickly cupped his fists at Qin Xiaoyao.
“General Zhao, you are too polite! I just happened to run into you guys and 1 thought I’d give you guys a helping hand,” Qin Xiaoyao said with a wave of her hand.
“Why are you here, General Zhao?” Qin Xiaoyao asked.
Zhao Shikuan was the Second Prince’s trusted aide, and he usually followed the Second Prince around. Why wasn’t he with the Second Prince this time?
“I’m here on His Highness’s orders to check out the situation in the war zone. I just came from the east town’s defense line.
“To my surprise, not long after we came out, we encountered these Liao soldiers,” Zhao Shikuan said glumly.
“By the way, General Qin, did you come from the west town? How’s the situation at the west town?”
Qin Xiaoyao’s eyes flickered momentarily.
“I’m not sure.”
When she saw Zhao Shikuan’s puzzled look, Qin Xiaoyao said, “We left the west town yesterday afternoon.
“After that, we have been wandering around the south of the town to kill the Liao soldiers. We only entered the town center district when it was almost dark. After that, we hid here to rest and recover our energy.”
Zhao Shikuan was surprised.
“You guys… have you been fighting with the Liao army for so long? ” He turned his gaze to the soldiers behind Qin Xiaoyao.
Qin Xiaoyao’s men were indeed in a sorry state, but they were all full of vigor.
When he recalled their bravery when they killed the enemies earlier, Zhao Shikuan had some speculation.
“They are… all from the Special Forces Team?” he asked.
“Mm-hmm.” Qin Xiaoyao nodded.
“After the South Town Gate was breached, 1 followed the plan 1 agreed with the Second Prince and led them to attack the Liao army’s base camp. In the end, my guys were ambushed and we lost more than half of our men.
“After returning to the west of the town, 1 led them to the south of the town to kill the Liao troops. By now, we’ve lost almost another half of my group.”
Qin Xiaoyao sighed.
“After night fell, we sneaked here to rest.
“Now, everyone’s condition is much better than before. However, we’ve been fighting for too long, so we’ve suffered many injuries and our weapons have been severely damaged.
“If possible, 1 want to bring them into the east of the town. Those who need medical treatment will be treated. Weapons that need to be changed will have to be changed,” Qin Xiaoyao said.
A hint of hesitation flashed across Zhao Shikuan’s face.
“Alright. Then 1’11 take you guys to the east town’s defense line first,” he said thereafter.
“In addition, the Second Prince has been looking for you. It’s just as well. You can also go and meet His Highness.”
“Thank you, General Zhao!” Qin Xiaoyao’s face lit up with joy and she quickly thanked him.
“This is what 1 should do!” Zhao Shikuan replied.
Following that, he brought Qin Xiaoyao and her group to the east of the town.
With Zhao Shikuan leading the way, Qin Xiaoyao and the others successfully passed through the eastern line of defense and entered the east town.
As soon as they entered the east town, everyone could feel the difference between this area and the other districts.
Although there were many soldiers patrolling the east town, it was quiet and peaceful. It was segregated from the other districts in High Pass Town as if the two parts were two different worlds.
When she saw this, Qin Xiaoyao felt more at ease.
Previously, she had been worried that High Pass Town would most likely fall after the South Town Gate Tower was breached.
Now, it seemed that the Second Prince had long planned to defend the east town securely.
Even if the Liao army broke through the South Town Gate Tower, it would not be easy to take down the east town.
Zhao Shikuan didn’t stay with Qin Xiaoyao after they entered the east town.
Instead, he handed Qin Xiaoyao over to another general and asked that person to bring her to meet the Second Prince.
Then, he left in a hurry.
Qin Xiaoyao asked the general to help arrange for someone to bring Huang Fei and the others to Han Chao. Only after that did she leave with the general.
15 minutes later, Qin Xiaoyao was finally brought to the outside of the Second Prince’s tent to wait for the Second Prince to summon her.
She saw that the Second Prince’s tent was still lit, and there were many shadows moving inside, as well as loud arguments. Qin Xiaoyao had a bad feeling about this.
A while later, after the soldier went in to report, the Second Prince came out of the tent.
“Teacher! You are back, Teacher?” As he walked out, he called out loudly.
When he saw Qin Xiaoyao, the Second Prince was even more excited and strode briskly toward her.
He even reached out to hold her hand.
Qin Xiaoyao glanced at the generals who had followed the Second Prince out of the tent but then quietly avoided her.
Thereafter, she cupped her fists and bowed to the Second Prince.
“My respects to Your Highness!”
Only then did the Second Prince come back to his senses and withdrew his hand to cover up his earlier lapse in decorum.
He reached out and helped Qin Xiaoyao up.
“There’s no need to be so polite, Teacher.
“I’m relieved to know that you’re fine, Teacher,” the Second Prince said excitedly.
“Come! We’ll talk inside!” The Second Prince quickly said as he reached out to pull Qin Xiaoyao inside.
Qin Xiaoyao evaded his touch again, keeping a distance from the Second Prince as she followed him.
The Second Prince’s expression froze for a moment, but he didn’t persist.
After entering the tent, the Second Prince quickly dismissed the other generals.
Following that, he asked Qin Xiaoyao about what happened after she left the town.
The Second Prince’s expression turned grim after listening to Qin Xiaoyao.
“Xiao Yuan is a cunning old man. 1 made a wrong judgment this time.
“It’s a good thing you returned safely, Teacher. Otherwise…” The Second Prince didn’t finish his sentence.
When he realized that something might have happened to Teacher Qin, he was tormented by regret.
He even almost made the wrong decision again because of this.
Later, after Han Chao led his troops to the east of the town, the Second Prince was relieved after finding out that Teacher Qin had returned safely.
However, when he found out that she had still stayed in the battle zone with the Special Forces Team, his previous sense of relief was replaced by anxiety again.
Fortunately, Teacher Qin had finally returned. His heart was also at ease again.
Qin Xiaoyao pretended not to notice the worry in the Second Prince’s eyes and said arrogantly, “Hmph! It won’t be that easy for that old fart Xiao Yuan to kill me.
“It’s a pity that the operation failed. We didn’t manage to burn that old fart’s food rations. And we lost so many men.”
The Second Prince was affected by Qin Xiaoyao’s fervor, and a smile appeared on his face.
“It’s not a pity. The number of men he lost was several times, even dozens of times more than yours.
“Even if the Liao State sends him more than 30,000 soldiers, ultimately the number will be limited. No matter how many troops there are, they can’t stand the grinding.
“As long as he can’t take down High Pass Town, we’ll slowly wear them out and fight a war of attrition. We’ll even out the number difference between the two sides sooner or later!” At this point, a touch of radiance flashed across the Second Prince’s eyes..
