Chapter 306: Great Victory

Next, Qin Xiaoyao signaled with a gesture.

The team members quickly divided into seven groups and began to act separately.

Silently, many Liao soldiers had their throats slit.

The special ops team members, like midnight assassins, continued to claim lives deep within the Liao army camp.

After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the team was exposed.

A Liao soldier on night duty discovered the special ops team members and shouted, "Ambush!"

Although the Liao soldier was quickly silenced, the noise had already been made.

The surrounding Liao soldiers were soon awakened and joined in the shouting.

Following that, chaos quickly spread through the Liao army camp.

"Kill!" Seeing this, Qin Xiaoyao shouted loudly.

Waving a Liao saber, he swiftly charged a group of Liao soldiers running out of their tents.

"Kill!" The other members of the special ops team responded, also waving their Liao sabers, swiftly killing the Liao soldiers they could see.

Officer Qin had given the order: their mission tonight was to kill all these Liao dogs.

Regardless of their numbers, they were to kill every one they saw until none remained!

Soon, both sides were locked in close combat, with the special ops team members each showing extraordinary bravery.

With excellent combat skills and an air of invincibility, they immediately gained the upper hand over the Liao soldiers.

Apart from Qin Xiaoyao, who was unstoppable in his divine slaughter, the most ferocious fighters were Huang Fei and the others.

Their mastery of the Liao saber techniques was so proficient that they could cut down a man with almost every blow.

Even if the first strike failed, the second rarely missed.

The lethal effectiveness of the killer saber technique was fully demonstrated here.

Striking directly at the enemy's weak points, the effect was astonishingly potent.

Some of those who had initially hesitated, fearing their moves were rusty and might backfire, now began to employ the Liao saber techniques.

Some mixed it with their original skills, while others used only the Liao saber techniques.

At first, there was some awkwardness, but after a few attempts, they gradually found the knack.

Then, they began to cut more smoothly and kill more effectively.

While slaughtering in all directions, Qin Xiaoyao also kept an eye on the situation of the team members around her.

Only when she noticed a team member in trouble would she intervene to rescue them.

With her throwing needles, no one could hurt her people.

The special ops team members, realizing this, became even more unrestrained in their killing.

She treated the Liao army as practice targets for her blade skills, tirelessly, growing more exhilarated with each kill.

As time went on, the Liao soldiers gradually began to react.

Seeing they couldn’t overpower the special forces in close combat, they deployed their archers.

Qin Xiaoyao had been keeping watch, and seeing this, she immediately sprang into action.

Like a tiger released from its cage, she charged forward, using her flying needles to clear the way, heading directly for the archers.

“Shoot! Shoot him down!” shouted a Liao officer beside the archers, his eyes wide in terror.

Before the archers could even draw their arrows, they were struck down by flying needles, falling to the ground.

A cruel smile curled on Qin Xiaoyao’s lips. Once again, she tossed a handful of needles, killing the panicked officer and the remaining archers instantly.

It was like a max-level player returning to a beginner village; slaughtering them was far too easy...

Huang Fei and the others, watching from a distance, were elated.

“Commander Qin has already dealt with the archers! Keep fighting! Kill all these Liao dogs!” one of them shouted loudly.

“Kill!”

“Kill the Liao dogs!” The team members roared, their spirits soaring.

Like wolves, they howled and threw themselves back into battle.

“Retreat! Retreat quickly—” At that very moment, someone in the Liao army shouted.

Many Liao soldiers began to turn and flee.

Before Qin Xiaoyao could issue a command, her team members were already giving chase, blades in hand.

“Don’t run, Liao dogs! Kill—”

“Kill!”

The sounds of battle continued.

The team members cut down some of the fleeing Liao soldiers, but when they saw that some had already escaped on horseback, one of them flipped onto a horse, preparing to give chase.

Seeing this, Qin Xiaoyao quickly intervened.

“Don’t pursue the cornered enemy! Clear the camp and exterminate the Liao dogs who haven’t fled!”

The team members who had been about to give chase reined in their horses.

They dismounted and executed the order.

Meanwhile, Huang Fei and four others strode toward Qin Xiaoyao, smiling.

“Boss!” they greeted, their voices filled with heroic spirit.

“Hmm,” Qin Xiaoyao nodded with a smile.

“Take two comrades back to the city and have Centurion Liu Hong bring some men to help clean up the battlefield.”

“Yes, ma’am!” Huang Fei responded immediately.

Then he took two people and left.

Afterward, Qin Xiaoyao didn’t have to wait long; Liu Hong soon arrived with his men.

Seeing the camp littered with corpses and only the special training team members standing, Liu Hong was astounded.

It was astounding that just thirty-five people had wiped out a Liao army unit of four to five hundred soldiers. And the special training team had not lost a single soldier.

Commander Qin, truly a remarkable strategist!

"Commander Qin!" Liu Hong approached, excitedly saluting Qin Xiaoyao, now thoroughly impressed.

"Mm-hm." Qin Xiaoyao smiled in response.

"The Liao soldiers have been cleared out, and we’ve taken a few prisoners."

"I’ll leave the cleanup and interrogations to you."

"I’ll take the team back first. The wounded will be treated, and the rest will rest." While she had protected her team members’ lives, some injuries were inevitable.

Fortunately, none of the injuries were severe, as far as she could see. They would be fine after some bandaging back in the city.

"Yes!" Liu Hong quickly agreed.

Qin Xiaoyao then instructed Huang Fei to gather the team, and she led them back to the city.

The return journey was lively, with team members walking tall and filled with pride.

They boasted about how many Liao soldiers they had killed and the methods they used.

Qin Xiaoyao walked ahead, smiling, occasionally joining in the conversation with her team until they returned to the city.

She called for medical officers to tend to the team members and had Huang Fei assist in recording everyone’s battle achievements. Only then did Qin Xiaoyao head to the southern part of the city at Chu Jin’s request.

When Qin Xiaoyao reached the southern part of the city, the battle was still raging.

The Liao soldiers launched a night attack, and the fighting became intense.

Fortunately, Chu Jin had been well-prepared, and with ample defensive equipment, the Liao soldiers were prevented from breaching the walls.

Chu Jin had been commanding the battle from the city wall, but upon hearing of Qin Xiaoyao’s arrival, quickly pulled her aside.

"Commander, I heard there was a great victory in the north city, with over four hundred Liao bandits killed. Is that true?" he asked excitedly.

"It’s true." Qin Xiaoyao replied with a smile.

"We were fortunate. The Liao forces were smaller and were awaiting reinforcements."

"With a preemptive strike, we caught them off guard."

"Excellent! Well done, Commander!" Chu Jin exclaimed excitedly.

"The great victory in the north city without any casualties was all thanks to your excellent command."

"Once this battle is over, there will certainly be rewards for your achievements!"

Qin Xiaoyao smiled and gave a respectful bow to Chu Jin.

"I don’t need any rewards, but before coming here, I promised the special training team members that I would request rewards based on their merits."
