Traveling through time and meeting fellow villagers, the secret code is right

After a short rest, the Lufeng army easily broke open the Dafei city gate.

The 200,000 soldiers of Da Fei who fled back could not get far because there were too many wounded and they were all hungry.

After entering the city, the King of Jin ordered the soldiers not to burn, kill, loot, or bully women.

After occupying the first city, he left 20,000 soldiers to garrison, and the King of Jin continued to advance with 520,000 soldiers to pursue the fleeing Dafei army.

After three hours of rapid march, we saw the Dafei army camped at the foot of the mountain not far away. It seemed that they had set up camp there last night to rest. Perhaps they had received the news that the Lufeng army had captured the first border city overnight, and were entering the territory of Dafei. Now they were chaotically packing up everything and preparing to leave.

It doesn’t matter whether they want to escape or fight back. What matters is that their current panic is the best opportunity for Lufeng’s army to wipe them out.

"Notify them to move forward at full speed." King Jin ordered.

After the defeat, the morale was low, and without food and fodder, the Dafei soldiers were exhausted. It would be strange if they did not get into chaos when they saw the Lufeng army chasing them.

Seeing the Lufeng army approaching, the Dafei side had no choice but to fight hastily. The result can be imagined...!

Dafei lost nearly 80,000 troops in the second battle...

The rest of the troops fought and retreated!

The morale of the Lufeng army has been high. Under the leadership of King Jin, they are fearless and fight more bravely! !

When they were chased all the way to the next city, they saw that it was their own army's defenders and immediately opened the city gates to welcome them. However, the remaining 120,000 troops had not yet entered the city after the fierce battle. Seeing the Lufeng army pressing behind them, the city gates had to be forced to close. At least 30,000 people were still left outside the city gates and were wiped out in one fell swoop by the Lufeng army that followed.

The sky was gradually getting dark, and King Jin ordered to set up camp on the spot, rest for one night, and continue the siege tomorrow.

"It's been two days. The King of Dafei will know the news here as early as the day after tomorrow, and then he will immediately send troops to support us. In this way, we have at least eight days to swallow up several nearby cities." King Jin said to several generals around him.

"Da Fei's support should not be less than 200,000." Ruoying said.

"Our combat effectiveness has not been reduced much, and we do not need support for the time being. As long as we have a good rest, our energy will be restored soon." King Jin replied.

Afterwards, Prince Jin submitted a memorial to the emperor, in which he also included a letter to his wife.

"Xiao Mu, did you receive my first letter? I miss you so much. How are you and the children? Do you miss me?" King Jin kept repeating his wife's name in his heart!

How many days have I been away from Chang'an? Twelve days? Or thirteen days? The days without Xiaomu by my side are so long.

Tonight is going to be a particularly quiet night.

Finally, he could have a good night's rest. King Jin fell asleep restlessly, thinking about his wife...

Before daybreak, the army had already had breakfast and started a new round of battle.

What we have to do today is to attack the city in front of us. The 90,000 Dafei soldiers who fled are now hiding in the city. The city's defense force is about 10,000, which is the information given by the spies before. In total, there are 100,000 soldiers in the city. We must annihilate them all before the Dafei reinforcements arrive, so that it will be easier to face the reinforcements.

The King of Jin ordered a signal to be sent to the spies from Lufeng who had sneaked into the city in advance, asking them to open the city gates before dawn.

After receiving the signal from the spy, the Lufeng soldiers prepared for the attack.

A group of soldiers quietly approached the city gate and knocked a few times in secret codes that only spies could understand.

The city gate slowly opened with a creaking sound...

All the Dafei soldiers who were responsible for guarding the city tonight have fallen to the ground. A young man who looked like a person in charge walked out and made a gesture to the people outside.

The Lufeng troops slowly sneaked in until dawn. When Da Fei discovered the Lufeng troops, all the Lufeng soldiers had already assembled in the city.

This second city was easily taken!!!

The remaining 100,000 soldiers of Dafei were reduced by half. When they entered the city, they were naturally supplied with food and grass in the city, but once they retreated, it would be impossible for them to take the food and grass with them.

After leaving 10,000 troops to garrison the newly captured city, the King of Jin began to pursue the 50,000 troops. This time, after five hours of pursuit, all of Dafei's remaining 50,000 troops surrendered. They no longer had the strength to escape, and they also lost the courage to fight...

The prisoners of war were handed over to a general, and the King of Jin took his 500,000 soldiers to rest for a while.

"Your Highness Prince Jin, this is the person who opened the city gate today." Chi Ying brought a person to the grass where Prince Jin was sitting.

King Jin looked up at the young man who saluted him and felt that he looked familiar. "Are you the spy lurking in Dafei and the one who opened the city gate today?"

"Your Highness Prince Jin, I received an order to sneak into Dafei half a month ago, and contacted the Lufeng army according to the previously agreed code, burned the food and grass, and opened the city gate." The young man replied.

"What is your rank in the army?" King Jin asked him. He had completed the three missions very well and deserved a good reward.

"Your Highness, I am a captain." The man replied

"What's your name?" He is already a general at such a young age. In time, he will become a pillar of the country.

"My name is Xia Yahong."

"Xia Yahong? This name sounds familiar." King Jin felt that his face and name were very familiar, and he couldn't help but start searching in his head.

"Oh! By the way, you are Xia Yaze's younger brother, right?" King Jin suddenly remembered that the two brothers looked alike, so of course he felt familiar. He is Xiao Mu's second cousin, and also his second brother-in-law!

"Yes, my brother is Xia Yaze." Xia Yahong smiled. The King of Jin is actually his cousin's husband.

"Haha! You have made an invaluable contribution to this battle. I will definitely ask my father to reward you." King Jin smiled happily. He did not call himself "this king" but "I"! Because seeing him felt like seeing Xiao Mu.

"Thank you, Your Highness. This is what I should do." Xia Yahong was still well-behaved. There was no father-son relationship on the battlefield, so he naturally would not try to establish a relationship with Prince Jin at this time.

"From now on, you will stay with me and continue to participate in the battle." King Jin wanted to take Xia Yahong with him.

"Yes!" Xia Yahong knew that this was the first step that King Jin wanted to take to promote him.

He had received a letter from his brother before, reminding him to remember that he had a sister named Xia Mu. The letter mentioned the marriage of Prince Jin and Xia Mu, and he knew that they were a pair of lovers. Prince Jin kept him by his side not only because of his ability, but also because he loved him and his whole family.
