Chapter 472: Where Were The Talents? (III)

Mainuhaide Xiaohuachai: “Such troubled times, these cowardly people are utterly disgusting.”
Jintain Wugengyou: “It doesn’t stop at disgust, seriously, I feel nauseous. Do women owe them a living, by joining the army, is their only role to be slept with? Don’t their histories then have examples of women heroes? Those two men had wretched faces just now. Even if they only had lascivious intentions, I feel grossed out on behalf of these young ladies in the women’s camp… Seems like they cannot enjoy their experience.”
Shafashi Xianggude: “Right, right, exactly–it is so sickening. The streamer will not let these people off lightly, I’ll wait for justice to be served.”
Jianguoyu Xiaobuding: “Perhaps it is unfair to blame these men for their vulgarity. The atmosphere around them encourages them to be such so it’s natural that they have wayward minds. I browsed Baidu for some ancient information and found out that bringing a woman to the military camp was really common, they are the so-called prostitutes residing in camps. During the day, they engaged in chores and if the situation at war was urgent, they would also be dispatched to the battlefield. If victory was won, they will become prostitutes who serve the soldiers.”
Renshen Kuwei: “Even so, it still feels unbearable. Originally, the streamer established the female troops’ camp to give these women an opportunity to join the army and fight the enemies, gain credits and build up their career, thereby raising their status so that they would not be looked down upon.
It hadn’t even officially begun, yet their own comrades already had lewd intentions towards them. It felt disgusting, as if one had eaten a housefly.
Jiang Pengji steadily multitasked; on one hand she was concerned with the present circumstances; on the other she was browsing through the comments in the live streaming room.
At that moment, her ears were filled with Li Yun’s voice of mildly suppressed resentment and unhappiness.
“This matter must not be delayed, if it is not clarified, the reputation of the women troops’ camp will be tarnished.”
A brief sense of displeasure appeared behind Li Yun’s eyes. He truly hated those irresponsible men. Those who toyed around with a woman’s reputation, their actions were utterly deplorable. Based on the lord’s description, the women’s camp would have equal rights to travel to the warzone to fight their enemies, and even become honourable heroes.
In a chaotic world, whoever dared to stand up and fight could be honoured as a hero, from Li Yun’s perspective.
Those who had dirty mindsets would associate such things when a women’s camp was mentioned. This was downright repulsive.
Except these foolish people didn’t see this as an embarrassment, but an honour. Young brother Li Yun felt such a fellow was not worthy to be a husband, with neither the generosity or good attitude. Moreover, he could not even be considered a rightful, respectable man.
“Honor; such a thing is not given by others. Rather it is earned with one’s own hands.”
Jiang Pengji laughed coldly as she glanced at the new recruits below. She entertained a menacing thought in her heart. “Since they perceive that the women’s troops are inferior, then let those from the female camp teach them how to be humans, make them kneel on the ground and swallow their words.”
The female troops she wanted to establish must never be associated with those messy affairs.
Before their enemies approved of the women troops’ abilities, they should first acknowledge their own comrades…The previous troops witnessed Jiang Nongqin’s prowess, and none dared to be rude to the women troops. However, these newly recruited soldiers and the imperial guards who blended in were different.
Jiang Pengji considered this aspect, she blinked her eyes dangerously in response as a counter strategy took shape in her mind.
No other methods could compare with her fists to command her subordinates to submit.
What’s the big deal if they were women, they could still bash these new naive soldiers until they were rolling on the ground.
Li Yun obeyed her words and he searched through his mind for details on the camp of female troops. There seemed to be none who could fight.
“However, if you wish to subdue with strength, presently, there appears to be none who can rise to the role…”
Li Yun frowned. The best way to get these new troops to keep quiet was to fight it out.
But, the commander of the women troops, Jiang Nongqin, had yet to arrive in Xiangyang district. Where would they find a suitable person?
She responded, “There’ll be one very soon.”
Finishing her speech, she told a subordinate soldier nearby, “Go to the women’s troop camp and borrow garments made for female soldiers.”
In order to make it more convenient for trainings, regardless of male or female soldiers, their garments were specially made to be loose and broad. Each set of clothes had multiple strings which could be tied to seal one’s cuffs and tailor the clothes to an individual’s size.
Thus, although her figure was taller than the average lady, she was able to wear the garments delivered.
Looking at the set of clothes, Li Yun suddenly burst out, “My lord, Yun is unable to disguise as a female because of how I look.”
Jiang Pengji wore an innocent face. “Excuse me?”
The viewers in the live stream were the first to react and they instantly laughed heartily.
Biluhe Shibi: “I cannot hold it anymore; this is so hilarious. Young brother Li Yun’s thoughts were too far-fetched, he thought the streamer wanted him to disguise as a female to teach those young punks a lesson? Pff— Honestly, I was greatly anticipating what he will look like in a woman’s garment. It will surely be an interesting sight to behold. Which artist will sketch him in female garments?”
Xiancao Xianpayuan: “Young brother Li Yun looks too manly. Muscles are a given, he exudes an unyielding character. If he were to don female attire, his disguise will be exposed in a minute, alright? However, his facial features are good-looking, if he grooms himself somewhat, to look at him in female wear wouldn’t be unsightly.”
Mengzhu Lingchongyuan: “If any daughter of a family has such looks, it cannot be… It’s rather repulsive to the eyes.
She also felt Li Yun’s worries were unfounded. Where did he get the idea?
Close to annoyed with his assumption, she said, “I’m not blind, I know you’d look ridiculous disguised as a woman.”
Li Yun’s face reddened mildly. Only then did he realised he had misunderstood; the lord didn’t ask him to do the task at hand.
But if not him, then who?
Looking around, his vision landed on Jiang Pengji and asked, “Don’t tell me my lord wants to disguise yourself as a woman and prepare to fight with them personally?”
She nodded. “Yes, I will show them who’s boss. Best is if they are beaten until their own legs go numb at the sight of a woman’s legs.”
Her face cracked into an evil, cunning smile. Those who saw had a chill down their spines. They have a bad feeling about this.
Li Yun took a step back and looked closely, then remarked, “This cannot be so…”
She raised her brows and responded, “Why not? I can easily overcome these weaklings and with one hand I can sweep them away.”
Shaking his head in disapproval, he said sincerely, “My lord is such an imposing male, if you disguise as a female, you won’t look any better than Yun.”
His greatest fear occurred when silence filled the air suddenly—
The next moment, the bullet screen in the live streaming room presented with explosive and consecutive comments again. Everyone took turns to poke fun at Jiang Pengji.
Buxiangjiageng Zhixiangsi: “Let me tell all of you a joke—Streamer is a gentleman with an imposing stature. Her female disguise is not as pretty as Li Yun.”
Jintain Youqianzaine: “The streamer is a female disguising as a male, but she is about to be a male disguising as a female. Then is she a male or female?”
Zailai Yigemengzhu: “Hahahaha, this is hilarious. This live streaming room is certainly toxic.”
Xiangguzhibo Kenjianpan: “Young brother Li Yun is too honest, such upright boys most often do not live long lives.”
Mingtian Jigengne: “Be careful, young brother Li Yun. If you antagonise a petty person like the streamer, you’ll be in trouble.”
Jiang Pengji took the clothes meant for the women troops; She lifted her head to look at Li Yun, then smirked, feeling entertained.
Li Yun didn’t understand. He thought she agreed with what he said, and smiled bashfully.
