Chapter 509: Besieging Fengyi County (XVII)

Jiang Pengji let out a long sigh. She really did not want to take these babies with her to war in the future if she could. Even if she had to take them with her, she could only take someone who was tenderhearted and easygoing. Look at these two. They’re so bold that they even have the guts to stop their lord from going onto the battlefield. How treacherous, hmph!

She gazed at the city gates of Chengan District in the distance. Her hands which were holding the reins were itchy. Dabai could not help but snort as well and it was moving restlessly.

Wei Ci pretended not to know what his lord was feeling. Even if he did not have the heart to do so, he still managed to hold back.

Blades and swords would aim blindly in the battlefield. Even the ever-victorious Jiang Pengji could not guarantee that she would be unharmed.

As the years went by, who could guarantee that the accumulated old wounds would not become a hidden danger?

Xu Ke could not hold it back. He felt guilty as Jiang Pengji stared at him with her resentful eyes. Summoning his courage, he said, “You can’t take risks rashly.”

Jiang Pengji curled her lips. She knew that the reason was this untenable just by thinking with her toes.

“I’m equal to a hundred people alone…” she said.

Wei Ci added softly in a sarcastic manner, “If that’s the case, I’d rather you dispatch another hundred troops to join the war.”

Jiang Pengji was speechless.

Wei Ci was extremely antagonistic. Did he really hate her?

In terms of fighting power, she could break the city gates of Chengan District by herself. There was no need for more than 10 soldiers to lift the gigantic log and pound the gates.

Seeing how the troops pounded the gates strenuously, Jiang Pengji wished she could drive them aside and show them what absolute strength was. However, the two feeble scholars, Wei Ci and Xu Ke, glared at her from left and right and did not allow her to act wildly.

Her resentment seemed to be able to penetrate the streaming screen. The audience could not refrain from laughing.

Some viewers could still show due respect for her feelings and just laughed on their own. Some viewers were more mischievous and directly posted bullet screens to tease her.

Mian Mian: “Hahaha. Beauty Ci and Brother Xu Ke have done an awesome job. The streamer who’s crazy wild needs to be taught a lesson.”

Renshen Kuwei: “Sigh. I can sense that the streamer’s resentment is soaring up to the sky even through the screen. The two strategists are cruel enough to let a restless person take her place obediently in the center division, just like how I lock my Husky up and don’t take it for a walk…”

Shiyuke: “Hahaha. The metaphor used by the user above is funny. You’re brutal. Huskies are so cute. Why do you treat it that way?”

Liuliangao: “Huskies have a nickname called ‘wild creatures’. It fits the streamer’s image so well. The two strategists mustn’t let the streamer have things her way. Once she’s put into the battlefield, who knows if she can still be caught? If they become softhearted for once, they’ll do the same thing for countless times in the future!”

It was not known where the audience in the streaming room got their ideas. Jiang Pengji’s fan club had the nickname ‘Husky’ after the name ‘Jiang Bapi’. However, thinking about it carefully, there was really not a problem with the nickname. Both of them liked to act wildly.

The pitiful Jiang Pengji could not enter the battlefield. Everyone on the battlefield could not stop pursuing the Tsing Yi Army in order to make a contribution.

Due to the Tsing Yi Army’s atrocity and brutality, the people in Chengan District who could escape had already done so. Those who could not flee were the old, the weak and the sick.

A small number of people could not endure the biting-cold winter the year before. They had already become cold and stiff corpses when someone discovered them one early morning.

The people who had survived the winter still had to bear the threat of hunger and the Tsing Yi Army’s ill treatment. Their lives were in deep water.

If it was not necessary, these people would not open their doors easily. Therefore, when Jiang Pengji’s troops attacked Chengan District, the doors of the houses on the streets were tightly shut. Some houses had collapsed in the Shangjing earthquake and they were not renovated. The entire street was deserted.

It was the same case in other places. The entire Chengan District was like a dead city, making people feel chilly.

Of course, such a situation was the best for the troops.

Why so?

It was because the military camp had orders that every soldier had to memorize and know them thoroughly by heart.

Among them, there were proscriptions like ‘soldiers could not cause a public disturbance, plunder and loot the people, and indiscriminately slaughter the innocent when besieging a city…’. There were hundreds of orders. The degrees of punishment upon violation would vary with the contents of the proscriptions.

Although there were special countermeasures in particular situations, it would give people the chance to fish in troubled waters. It would be difficult to handle if it was exposed.

The streets in the city were quiet, providing the troops with great convenience. They soon made their way to the inner city and killed the befuddled members of the Tsing Yi Army until they were wetting their pants in terror. Many people were still sleeping soundly. They were already beheaded before they had time to react.

The Tsing Yi Army liked to seek pleasure. They had burned, killed and pillaged countless times.

That was not all. They even enlisted women into the ‘military brothel’ by force, making women from respectable families enter the ‘military brothel’ to serve the members of the Tsing Yi Army.

The ‘military brothel’ was built in the inner city. The troops were suddenly bewildered by the scene inside when they invaded the place.

The ‘military brothel’ was made up of more than 10 rows of small, thatched cottages. A row had more than 20 thatched cottages, each detached from the next. There was a naked woman in each cottage. Their necks were tied with thick hemp ropes. The other corner was filled with dirty plates which were hovered over by mosquitoes and flies. Most of the women curled up in the corner of the cottage like a dog in a kennel.

Jiang Nongqin’s icy, hoarse voice was filled with terrifying anger.

“All the male troops, leave! The violators will be punished like they’ve violated the proscriptions!”

As she finished speaking, more than ten female troops who were stained with blood from head to toe quickly took over the ‘military brothel’. Each of them were holding rifles with aloof facial expressions. They cleaned up the befuddled members of the Tsing Yi Army and cast their bodies aside without mercy while chasing their male comrades out.

It was not that Jiang Nongqin did not believe in these comrades, she just did not believe in men.

Some of the troops indeed had their sexual desires aroused upon seeing the women’s bodies. However, the war was not over and the female soldiers were glaring at them fiercely by the side. Moreover, the lieutenant of the female battalion, Jiang Nongqin, was personally attending to garrison duty there. All of them shuddered at the thought of the proscriptions of the military camp. Their desires vanished.

At that moment, a sound like a pig being slaughtered caught everyone’s attention.

An extremely tall and strong man came out of a cottage. More than 10 heads of the members of the Tsing Yi Army were pinned on his waist. He strung them together and piled them up in one place. One could not help but feel pins and needles… Besides, everyone noticed that his fan-sized palm seemed to be grabbing something. Everyone stretched their necks to have a detailed look. It turned out to be a soldier who had taken his pants off and revealed his penis.

Jiang Nongqin was livid. The strong man hurled the soldier like he was throwing trash.

The soldier rolled on the ground several times before he stopped. He felt that his bones were about to break.

“He has committed the sin of adultery. He should be killed in front of the army,” the strong man said with a deep voice.

Jiang Nongqin held the knife on her waist tightly.

If it was not for the military orders, she really wanted to hack the soldier to death directly.

“I… I didn’t…”

The soldier felt dizzy and his ears were humming. He babbled weakly, trying to defend himself upon hearing what the man had said.
