Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Jiang Pengji did not like to swear. She believed in solving problems with fighting rather than with words.
In the history of the streaming room, the Tsing Yi Army were the only people who got to enjoy such high-quality treatnt.
What abilities did the Tsing Yi Army have that caused Jiang Pengji to swear?
It enraged the viewers in the streaming room. Many of them expressed their concern. They wanted Jiang Pengji to calm down and not let her anger overwhelm her.
She could fight the Tsing Yi Army at any ti. If the situation was not stabilized now, they might lose everything.
The Xiangyang District was in a state of rebuilding. Although the reconstruction was new, it was progressing nicely.
The audience imagined that, eventually, the city would be rejuvenated.
Tumi Dalao: “You must remain composed. Don’t be hasty and do sothing that you’ll regret.”
Baidu Xinwenbu: “That’s right. You can get even with the Tsing Yi Army any ti. Don’t be impulsive...”
Buxiangjiageng Zhixiangsi: “Impulse is the devil! Soone hold the strear down!”
Although most audience mbers were trying to persuade her, so of them instigated. They were completely malicious, and so were furious.
Chisude Shuzi: “What are you afraid of? Are you a wimp? The Tsing Yi Army has directly stepped on the strear. These heartless people should die! If the strear does nothing, guess how serious the consequences will be? Although the troops are in slavery, they were her private soldiers. However, they’ve also sacrificed their lives for the strear. If the strear doesn’t take soone with her to rescue them, none of them will be willing to risk their lives for her in the future.”
Buyao Heshibile: “Isn’t the Tsing Yi Army pleading on behalf of the people? The strear’s troops have rescued so many lives during the disaster relief in Fengyi County. What has the Tsing Yi Army done? They burned, killed, and looted in the Xiangyang District. Jiang Pengji’s troops destroyed General Jui’s Tsing Yi Army. As a result, the remaining Tsing Yi Army took their anger out on the 2,000 troops in Fengyi County. They’re a bunch of b*stards!”
Jiang Pengji was not in the mood to deal with the bullet screens.
She looked at the ssenger with a grave look on her face, and her lips pursed tightly. She desired ruthless bloodshed. Even though she was in clean clothes, her skin was still blood-stained. She looked like a soul-reaping ssenger that crawled out of hell. The “technician” looking after the brick-kiln quivered. He did not want to look at her.
Jiang Pengji suddenly curled her lips, revealing a bloodthirsty smile.
“I haven’t looked for trouble, but they still ca knocking on my door. It just so happens that we lack manpower here.” After not speaking for a while, her voice sounded hoarse. It was very uncomfortable to listen to.
Jiang Pengji said to the ssenger, “Gather the n and call Coach ng and Coach Luo. We’re having a eting!”
The last two words were forced out from behind her molars; they sounded murderous.
Qiguan Rang and the others rushed to the district headquarters one after another. Jiang Pengji sat in the front of the room, and her aura was suffocating.
“What’s wrong, Lord?” Qiguan Rang arrived first. However, he did not like to stand out, so he sat in a seat a distance away from Jiang Pengji.
He watched Feng Jin and the others co in one by one. There was doubt written on their tired faces.
They had not gathered together since the last eting, which was when they received their tasks.
This is serious, everyone thought simultaneously.
Jiang Pengji did not answer Qiguan Rang’s question. She signaled for them to sit down before she asked the ssenger to co in.
She said with a hoarse voice, “Repeat what you just told to the gentlen.”
Their hearts jolted upon hearing Jiang Pengji’s voice. They tacitly turned their attention to the ssenger. The more they listened, the heavier their hearts felt.
The ssenger said, “This morning, a soldier with severe injuries arrived outside the city. After careful identification, he turned out to be from the Lord’s troop. He only managed to say, ‘The Tsing Yi Army has besieged Fengyi County. They attacked the troops at night and killed many people.’ He’s in a coma due to his injuries. His life is still in danger.”
Attacking the troops at night? Killing the people? Feng Jin and the others were fearful and silent.
Qiguan Rang held the fan in his hand tightly. He had taken 3,000 troops with him when he left Chongzhou.
1,000 of them coordinated with Jiang Pengji alongside him. The other 2,000 went to Fengyi County to provide relief to the people.
The situation in Fengyi County was more critical, so Jiang Pengji did not transfer the troops back after she dominated the Xiangyang District.
However, who could have predicted that the Tsing Yi Army would retaliate in such a way?
Upon hearing that General Jiu was dead, they stord in and captured Fengyi County with their strong military force when the troops were unprepared. They even launched a night attack.
The atmosphere grew tense. After a while, Jiang Pengji heard a series of flustered footsteps outside. Another ssenger ca in. “Lord, the troop mber who brought the ssage woke up.”
Jiang Pengji replied, “Get soone to bring him in!”
Two people ca in carrying a stretcher. A troop mber, covered in blood, was laying on it.
His breathing was barely perceptible, and his chest undulated feebly. When he saw Jiang Pengji getting closer, his dull and lifeless eyes lit up. Two streaks of turbid and hot tears rolled down his cheeks. He spoke laboriously, “Lang––Langjun... the Tsing... Yi Army... Those b*stards made a sneak attack... and many of the guys are injured... It’s hard to tell whether they’ll survive... Langjun, you have to save them...”
Jiang Pengji gritted her teeth and responded, “I’ll bring them back without losing any of them!”
Upon hearing her promise, the troop’s lips trembled. With nostalgia and regret in his eyes, he died.
After a while, Feng Jin put his finger underneath the troop’s nose and checked his pulse. He muttered, “He’s gone.”
Jiang Pengji bit her lower lip and suppressed the anger surging in her heart. “Bury him properly.”
With the exception of the first troops, which were her servants, and the soldiers ng Hung brought with him, her troops were forr bandits.
At first, they submitted themselves to Jiang Pengji’s rule to survive. However, as ti passed by, their hearts filled with righteous ardor. Even if they were bandits, they had passions. They were willing to sacrifice themselves for people who recognized their worth.
They were loyal to Jiang Pengji, so she naturally cherished her subordinates.
Jiang Pengji closed her eyes. She had regained her composure by the ti she reopened her eyes.
She said in a flat tone, “I want to dispatch so troops to save them.”
Feng Jin spoke after a while, “I understand how you feel. I don’t intend to stop you. I just hope that you understand what it ans to dispatch the troops. A thousand things need to get done in the Xiangyang District. It’s so weak that it can’t withstand a single blow. If you send help, I’m afraid...”
Jiang Pengji replied, “I know that it is very risky, but I can’t let any of my followers think that I’d abandon them in their ti of need. I won’t leave anyone behind. They’re my troops––Liu Xi’s troops!”
