Xiao Chi looked at Xiao Ling'an, "Uncle, we've met the Ninth Uncle before. I sent a letter to him some time ago. We'll meet in Pengcheng then."

Pengcheng was also part of Zhao State and was relatively close to Xiao Qiwu, so they made an appointment to meet in Pengcheng.

"Really?" Xiao Ling'an smiled and said, "Then I'll go with you guys, so I can meet your Ninth Uncle."

Xiao Chi frowned and said, "Uncle, do you mean you want to come with us?"

Xiao Ling'an suppressed his smile and spoke seriously, "The hatred between me and your father has not yet been resolved. I have been harboring resentment in my heart for all these years. If I hadn't had troops, I would have attacked the Great Dynasty long ago! Since you are here, I will definitely go with you. I just don't know if you, Beishu..."

Xiao Chi put down his chopsticks and looked at Xiao Lingan, "Uncle, since you've asked, I naturally won't refuse."

Song Yao didn't expect that Xiao Lingan would want to join them in attacking the Dachao Kingdom, but it was good that he joined, so that they would have an extra fighting force.

Xiao Yan said, "Uncle, you are also a member of the royal family. If you join us in rebellion, aren't you afraid of the bad reputation you will face?"

"Reputation?" Xiao Ling'an sneered, "I've never cared about reputation. No matter what others say, I will definitely rebel against your father!"

Xiao Chi said: "Okay, then you can come with us."

"Okay!" Xiao Lingan nodded.

Then they continued to eat and drink.

Since Xiao Lingan hadn't seen Xiao Chi for a long time and missed him very much, he took him out to drink until late at night.

When he returned to the room, Song Yao had already taken two naps and the children were also asleep.

Song Yao was awakened by the sound. Seeing Xiao Chi coming back, she frowned and asked in a hoarse voice, "Why did you come back just now?"

"He insisted on getting me to drink."

Xiao Chi was a little tipsy. He sat on the edge of the bed and was about to take off his clothes when Song Yao said, "Don't sleep here. You reek of alcohol. Go sleep in another bed."

"..."

He frowned, "Do you dislike me?"

Song Yao turned around and said, "I'm not disgusted with you, you reek of alcohol and it's not good for the children."

Xiao Chi was feeling quite aggrieved at first, but after hearing what Song Yao said, the aggrieved feeling in his heart disappeared.

He leaned over and kissed her on the cheek, "Okay, I'll go to sleep."

Although he didn't feel wronged in his heart, his tone still sounded very aggrieved.

Of course, Song Yao ignored him.

Xiao Chi sighed and had to sleep on another bed.

When I woke up, it was already bright.

And Song Yao was sitting beside his bed looking at him.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Chi rubbed his eyes.

Song Yao folded her arms, feeling a little annoyed. "We're all waiting for you. Why did you just wake up? Hurry up and wash up. We're leaving!"

"Oh."

Xiao Chi sat up, put on his clothes, and washed up before leaving with Song Yao.

"They're all gone?"

"Waiting for you out front."

"What about the child?"

"My sister-in-law and the others were holding it."

"Oh."

Xiao Chi didn't expect that when he woke up, it was already this late. He originally wanted to sleep a little longer, but thinking that everyone was waiting, he gave up.

When we arrived at the front yard, everyone was ready.

When they saw Xiao Chi coming, they all came out.

The group left the palace and went directly out of the city.

When they arrived outside the city, the army was ready to leave at any time.

Feng Yingying and the others got on the carriage, while Song Yao, Xiao Chi and the others rode on horses and headed straight south.

After walking for about ten days, they arrived at Qintong Pass.

Renzhong Pass is the checkpoint leading to Xuyang City from the Dachao Kingdom. It is heavily guarded and easy to defend but difficult to attack. If they want to pass through here, they will have to fight a tough battle.

The army camped outside Qintong Pass.

Song Yao, Xiao Chi, and Yuchi Lan rode their horses to the outside of Zhentong Pass and carefully looked at the surrounding environment.

There are high mountains on both sides, and the checkpoint is located in the middle. The city wall is dozens of feet high. If you want to enter the Zhentong Pass, you must fight a battle!

After reading it, Song Yao turned to look at Yuchi Lan beside her, "Master, what do you think?"

Yuchi Lan smiled and said, "This isn't difficult!"

"Not difficult?" Song Yao and Xiao Chi both looked at Yuchi Lan.

Song Yao frowned, "How can this not be difficult? Unless we capture this place, the army won't be able to get through!"

"Don't be impatient," Yuchi Lan said. "The army really can't get in, but I can go up there. Once I've dealt with those people inside, I can open the city gates and the army will be able to come in."

Song Yao asked, "Isn't this a bit unethical?"

When she watched TV, she saw that both sides would send out their best men to fight each other and defeat the other side.

Unexpectedly, Yuchi Lan said that he would fly up directly and defeat those officers and soldiers!

I have to say that this saves a lot of time and does not cause a large number of casualties.

Yuchi Lan laughed twice, "Ayao, all is fair in war. They are incompetent and can't beat me, so they can't blame us for not practicing martial ethics, right?"

"Haha!" Song Yao couldn't help laughing, "Master, you are right."

Yuchi Lan said, "I will attack them at night, so that you can pass through Qintong Pass tomorrow."

Xiao Chi said, "With Your Excellency accompanying us, we have indeed saved ourselves a lot of trouble, and we will be able to reach the Imperial City of the Great Dynasty within our schedule!"

Yuchi Lan glanced at Song Yao before looking at Xiao Chi. "Ayao is my disciple, so naturally I want her to win big. So if we encounter a difficult barrier in the future, I will just sneak attack!"

Neither Xiao Chi nor Song Yao expected that Yuchi Lan would use a sneak attack to deal with the enemy.

However, Yuchi Lan's swordsmanship is top-notch, and if he launches a sneak attack, the enemy will be powerless to resist!

This is a good thing, it saves them a lot of trouble.

Then, the three of them returned to the camp.

The soldiers had already set up the tents. Xiao Chi came to the main tent. Not long after, all of Song Zizhou and his men came over.

Xiao Lingan asked, "Beishu, do you have something to tell us?"

Xiao Chi hummed, and seeing that everyone had arrived, he said, "Yuchi Lan will launch a surprise attack on Qintong Pass tonight. Everyone, wait outside tonight, and then we will rush directly into Qintong Pass!"

Xiao Lingan worriedly asked, "Will this sneak attack work? There are a full 4,000 soldiers and horses inside Qintong Pass. He's alone... I'm afraid it won't work."

Yuchi Lan said, "I will only deal with the soldiers on the city wall. After killing them, they will have no chance to gather other troops. Then you can rush in directly, and we can capture Qintong Pass!"

Song Yao said, "My master's swordsmanship is first-rate, so he can easily deal with the city guards."

Since Xiao Chi and Song Yao both trusted Yuchi Lan so much, Xiao Lingan had nothing to say.

Xiao Chi asked them to rest first, and after dinner, everyone cheered up and then attacked Zhentong Pass.

They all responded and went out.
