Chapter 307: Taking Action Again
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“This time, all of them fought valiantly and killed many enemies. When the time comes, I hope Colonel Chu Jin won’t be stingy with your rewards.” “Naturally! Naturally! Hahahaha…” Chu Jin quickly answered.
After talking to Qin Xiaoyao for a while longer, he brought Qin Xiaoyao up to the town gate tower and continued with his battle command duties.
There were indeed more Liao soldiers in the South Town, but the town gate tower was easy to defend and hard to attack by default. In addition, Chu Jin’s side was well prepared. The Liao army attacked many times but failed to take down the town gate tower.
In addition, the Liao army had learned that something had happened in North Town, so their desire to attack had greatly diminished.
After persevering for a while, they chose to retreat.
Chu Jin heaved a sigh of relief inwardly when he saw that.
He was just about to instruct the soldiers to tally their losses and regroup to prepare for the next wave of attack.
“Why don’t we go after them and wipe out these remaining soldiers?” Qin Xiaoyao asked suddenly.
She didn’t know where the Liao army got their courage from.
On the northern side of the town, they had only four to five hundred men yet they dared to set up their camp so close to the town gate.
On the southern side, despite suffering such heavy losses, they still did not learn their lesson. After their defeat, they still did not retreat far away.
Was it because they were sure that the Jin State’s army would only defend and not counterattack?
They were really overconfident.
Chu Jin paused for a while. He glanced at the direction in which the Liao army was retreating.
He found that they had indeed not gone far, and the light from the torches was much dimmer than before. This meant that the other party had suffered a serious loss in terms of headcount.
A look of hesitation flashed across Chu Jin’s face. He was tempted, but he did not give the order immediately.
After all, sending out troops meant losing troops, and defending would at least preserve their strength.
Qin Xiaoyao could read Chu Jin’s mind.
“Why don’t we let the Special Forces Team do it? In any case, they don’t mind the burden of military merits,” she said with a smile.
Excluding her, the Special Forces Team had a total of 34 people. Only four of them were slightly injured, while the rest had all retreated in one piece unharmed.
The four people who were injured did not have any vital injuries, so it would not affect their combat ability. Therefore, it was technically possible for all of them to go on another operation.
Even if the four injured members didn’t go, there would still be 30 members left.
With her joining in, it wasn’t impossible to slay all the remaining soldiers outside the town.
“Er…” Chu Jin was a little tempted.
Qin Xiaoyao chuckled.
“How about it? If you’re okay with it, we’ll do it,” she said.
Chu Jin then nodded.
“Alright!”
“If your team can kill all the Liao soldiers, the military merits will be counted as well!” he said in a deep voice.
Qin Xiaoyao’s eyes lit up.
She cupped her hands at Chu Jin.
“Then I’ll go summon them myself!” she said.
With that, she turned around and left.
After descending from the town gate tower, Qin Xiaoyao got on her horse nimbly and rushed to the Special Forces Team’s camp.
When she saw that Liu San and Huang Fei were still awake and chatting on the drill ground, Qin Xiaoyao told them to wake up the rest.
When the two of them learned that there was a new mission and they could continue to accumulate military merits, they were very excited and quickly ran off.
Before long, the Special Forces Team members were all assembled.
They stood in a neat formation and faced Qin Xiaoyao.
“The general situation is that the Liao army at the south of the town failed to take down the South Town Gate. Now, the remaining Liao soldiers have retreated.
“But they didn’t go far. Hmm… they are probably less than half a mile from the South Town Gate.
“As for the number of people, according to the estimation of our comrades in South Town, there are about five hundred people.
“The number is higher than those Liao soldiers we dealt with before. Moreover, these people have just undergone a bitter war, so their sense of vigilance would be stronger than those soldiers we encountered earlier.
“Therefore, it will be more difficult to fight this group of people.”
“What is there to be afraid of? It’s just 500 people. Even if there are more, if our Special Forces Team take action, we can definitely take them down!” Liu San said suddenly.
“That’s right! Leader, don’t worry! Our brothers only treated the earlier operation as an appetizer to practice. This will be the main dish!”
“Since the Liao scumbags have sent themselves to our doorstep for our dining pleasure, how can we not accept it?” Huang Fei replied.
As soon as he said that, everyone burst into raucous laughter.
All of them agreed with Huang Fei’s words.
They were all clamoring to kill the Liao scumbags to gain military merits.
Qin Xiaoyao was very pleased with their response.
After a few more words of encouragement, she led everyone to the South Town Gate.
When they arrived, Chu Jin came to receive them personally.
He first praised the Special Forces Team for their previous performance, then encouraged them and reminded Qin Xiaoyao and the others to pay attention to their safety.
Qin Xiaoyao laughed without restraint.
“Colonel, you can just wait for my good news!” she said.
Then, she led the Special Forces Team down the town gate tower.
That was right. The team was prepared to sneak their way in just like before.
They were prepared to sneak into the enemy camp, catch them off guard and slay them all.
After descending from the town gate tower, the Special Forces Team members once again hid in the dark. Then, they quickly crept forward under Qin Xiaoyao’s lead.
In a short while, they reached the Liao army camp.
At this moment, the Liao soldiers were still setting up camp and tidying up the campsite.
Qin Xiaoyao arrived with her men. She didn’t have the intention to kill secretly. Instead, she suddenly shouted loudly.
“Slay the Liao scumbags!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the 34 men behind her also shouted, “Kill them!”
That group of men charged into the Liao army camp and started a massacre of the helpless Liao soldiers.
The wails of slaughter resounded throughout, and a large number of Liao soldiers instinctively fled.
However, how could they outrun the menacing momentum of the Special Forces Team members? Within a short while, a large number of the Liao soldiers were killed.
Some of the Liao soldiers came back to their senses and went back to the camp to get their weapons, preparing to put up resistance against the Special Forces Team members.
However, many of them were killed on their way to retrieve their weapons.
Some of them, even if they managed to get their hands on weapons, could not withstand the attacks of the Special Forces Team members and died tragic deaths.
Of course, this was only the beginning.
The sudden appearance of Qin Xiaoyao and the others caught the other party off guard and gave Qin Xiaoyao’s team a huge advantage.
After the Liao army recovered themselves, the Liao soldiers in the camp quickly armed themselves and charged out.
In fact, they had even prepared archers.
The battle situation began to turn grim.
Qin Xiaoyao still remained calm. She told everyone to continue killing while she dealt with the Liao army’s archery team.
The members of the Special Forces Team had already seen Qin Xiaoyao’s capabilities before, so they had a lot of confidence in her.
They continued to swing their Liao-style sabers to slay enemies. They slew to their hearts’ content until their eyes were bloodshot.
Qin Xiaoyao didn’t let the Special Forces Team down. She was like a meat grinder, killing her way through.
Not only did she kill all the enemies in her way, but she also annihilated all the archers before they could shoot.
When the Liao soldiers saw this sight, they were all terrified.
Just as the Liao soldiers were forced into retreating, someone suddenly shouted out, “Kill! Kill him! Whoever takes this man’s head will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold!”
As soon as he said that, the Liao soldiers who had been retreating just now quickly surrounded Qin Xiaoyao.
Qin Xiaoyao wasn’t afraid at all. She snatched one spear directly from one of the Liao soldiers and swept it out, slicing down a swathe of Liao soldiers.
Following that, Qin Xiaoyao looked in the direction of the voice.
She saw a person who was dressed differently from the regular Liao soldiers.
When she realized that the other party was the leader of these Liao soldiers, Qin Xiaoyao’s eyes glowed with a chilly light.
Very good. She had really found him “without any effort.”
The head of the Liao army on the opposite side met Qin Xiaoyao’s gaze and his heart froze.
When he realized that the situation didn’t feel right, he turned around, got on the horse, and fled to the back..
