Yemen Pass is a steep place with steep cliffs on both sides and only a narrow passage in the middle. This kind of terrain is easy to defend but difficult to attack, but Youyue has already conducted a detailed reconnaissance of the terrain and made a careful plan. She decided to use the cover of night to launch a surprise attack and catch the enemy off guard.

As the team continued to move forward, the night became darker. The sound of wind, insects and leaves rustling in the forest intertwined, adding a mysterious and tense atmosphere to the night raid. The soldiers kept their formation tacitly, no one spoke, only the sound of their uniform footsteps echoed in the silent valley.

When the army arrived outside Yemen Pass, Youyue raised her sword again and signaled the troops to stop. She stared at the towering pass ahead, and saw the city walls were brightly lit and patrolling soldiers walking back and forth. Youyue counted the rhythm of the attack in her mind, and at the same time signaled the messenger with her eyes to get ready.

Suddenly, the sound of drums rose up, breaking the silence of the night. Then, dense arrows were shot at the enemy on the city wall like a rainstorm. This was the first wave of attacks carefully planned by Youyue, aimed at disrupting the enemy's position.

With the sound of drums and the rain of arrows, Youyue led the elite vanguard to rush to the pass. They were so fast that they passed through the passage like lightning and rushed straight to the city gate. The enemy troops guarding the pass were caught off guard by this sudden night attack. They organized a defense in a panic, but it was too late.

Youyue led the way, wielding her sword and engaging in a fierce battle with the enemy. Her swordsmanship was sharp and swift, making the enemy afraid. The soldiers followed closely behind her, fighting bravely and engaging in a desperate battle with the enemy.

The battlefield was filled with swords and sabers, blood and rain. Every clash of swords made a harsh metallic collision sound, and every stabbing of spears brought a sharp sound of wind. The shouts of soldiers, the neighing of horses, and the clash of weapons intertwined to form a heroic war song.

As time went by, the battle became more intense. But Youyue and her army did not retreat. They bravely moved forward and continuously broke through the enemy's defenses. Youyue knew that this battle was not only about the outcome of the war, but also about the future of the country and the dignity of the nation. Therefore, she charged forward fearlessly and inspired morale with her actual actions.

After a long and fierce battle, the enemy finally couldn't withstand the fierce attack of Youyue's army and began to retreat. Youyue seized the opportunity and led her army to break through the gate of Yemenguan in one fell swoop. With the collapse of the gate, the dawn of victory also shone on Youyue and her army.

This night attack was a complete success. Youyue and her army not only occupied the important pass of Yemen Pass, but also laid a solid foundation for the subsequent war.

The atmosphere in the Great Zhou military camp was tense and solemn.

The news of the loss of Yemen Pass was like a heavy bomb, exploding in Wang Jin's heart. This sudden bad news was like a bolt from the blue, making him almost unable to stand, his eyes went dark, and he almost fainted.

"Generals! The situation is critical now, how should we respond? The enemy army is approaching and has surrounded us. If we had known this would happen, we should not have stationed the troops in this wilderness, but should have withdrawn them to the city and defended it as soon as possible!" Wang Jin said with a pale face and a trembling voice.

At this time, an experienced veteran stepped forward, saluted, and said in a deep voice: "General, don't panic. At this point, we have no way to retreat. We can only concentrate our forces and fight hard to attack Yemen Pass. If we can regain the lost territory, there is still a glimmer of hope; otherwise, there is no other way but to surrender!"

Wang Jin took a deep breath. Now he could only try his best. He turned to the old general and said in a deep voice, "What the old general said is absolutely right. We have reached a critical moment of life and death. Although Yemen Pass is strong, we soldiers are determined to die. We will definitely break it!"

He paused for a moment and looked around: "Pass the order down, the whole army will rest for a day, and at 3:30 am tomorrow, the whole army will attack and swear to take back Yemen Pass!"

It was late at night, but Wang Jin was sleepless. He sat in the tent, thinking over and over again. He knew that if he failed this time, his life would be ruined.

The next morning, just after dawn, Wang Jin led his army to Yemen Pass. They were very careful along the way, trying not to alert the enemy. However, when they arrived at Yemen Pass, they found that the large army was like a solid wall, blocking their advance.

Wang Jin's heart sank, but he did not give up. He ordered the whole army to line up and prepare to attack. However, in the fierce battle, due to the enemy's strength and their own mistakes, they gradually fell into a bitter battle.

Although Wang Jin personally charged into battle, the Dabai's defense was too strong and their attacks were repelled again and again. In the end, after paying a huge price, Wang Jin had to admit that they were defeated.

Wang Jin felt heartbroken as he watched the battlefield littered with corpses and rivers of blood. He knew that this defeat not only meant the end of his military career, but also meant that countless soldiers' lives had been sacrificed in vain.

Wang Jin knew that if he continued to fight hard, more soldiers would die in vain, and he would bear a heavier responsibility.

After a long and painful struggle, Wang Jin finally made a difficult decision-surrender. He knew that this was a great humiliation for him, but he knew even more clearly that as a general, he had to be responsible for the lives of his soldiers.

Wang Jin quickly summoned all the generals and soldiers. He stood in front of them and said in a hoarse but firm voice: "My fellow soldiers, I know we have made great efforts and sacrifices for this war. However, facing a powerful enemy and the impregnable Yemen Pass, we are powerless to turn the tide. I, Wang Jin, as your general, have decided to surrender."

The tent was silent, and all eyes were focused on Wang Jin. He felt unprecedented pressure and pain, but he knew that this was a responsibility he had to bear.

"I know this is hard for you to accept, but please believe me, surrender does not mean failure. We need to retain our existing strength, so that we can have a chance to make a comeback and turn defeat into victory!" Wang Jin continued to persuade everyone with a firm face.

Faced with Wang Jin's earnest persuasion and the current predicament, the generals and soldiers were silent for a long time, and finally accepted this helpless but necessary decision. Because they knew in their hearts that if they didn't do this, the army would be wiped out.

So, in the early morning of the next day, when the sun just showed a glimmer of light above the horizon, Wang Jin led his exhausted but still orderly army slowly towards the enemy camp, expressing his willingness to surrender.
