Chapter 423: Rebuilding Xiangyang District (VII)

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 treatment.

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 time. 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: 鈥淵ou must remain composed. Don鈥檛 be hasty and do something that you鈥檒l regret.鈥?/p>

Baidu Xinwenbu: 鈥淭hat鈥檚 right. You can get even with the Tsing Yi Army any time. Don鈥檛 be impulsive鈥︹€?/p>

Buxiangjiageng Zhixiangsi: 鈥淚mpulse is the devil! Someone hold the streamer down!鈥?/p>

Although most audience members were trying to persuade her, some of them instigated. They were completely malicious, and some were furious.

Chisude Shuzi: 鈥淲hat are you afraid of? Are you a wimp? The Tsing Yi Army has directly stepped on the streamer. These heartless people should die! If the streamer does nothing, guess how serious the consequences will be? Although the troops are in slavery, they were her private soldiers. However, they鈥檝e also sacrificed their lives for the streamer. If the streamer doesn鈥檛 take someone with her to rescue them, none of them will be willing to risk their lives for her in the future.鈥?/p>

Buyao Heshibile: 鈥淚sn鈥檛 the Tsing Yi Army pleading on behalf of the people? The streamer鈥檚 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鈥檚 troops destroyed General Jui鈥檚 Tsing Yi Army. As a result, the remaining Tsing Yi Army took their anger out on the 2,000 troops in Fengyi County. They鈥檙e a bunch of b*stards!鈥?/p>

Jiang Pengji was not in the mood to deal with the bullet screens.

She looked at the messenger 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 messenger that crawled out of hell. The 鈥渢echnician鈥?looking after the brick-kiln quivered. He did not want to look at her.

Jiang Pengji suddenly curled her lips, revealing a bloodthirsty smile.

鈥淚 haven鈥檛 looked for trouble, but they still came knocking on my door. It just so happens that we lack manpower here.鈥?After not speaking for a while, her voice sounded hoarse. It was very uncomfortable to listen to.

Jiang Pengji said to the messenger, 鈥淕ather the men and call Coach Meng and Coach Luo. We鈥檙e having a meeting!鈥?/p>

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.

鈥淲hat鈥檚 wrong, Lord?鈥?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 come in one by one. There was doubt written on their tired faces.

They had not gathered together since the last meeting, which was when they received their tasks.

This is serious, everyone thought simultaneously.

Jiang Pengji did not answer Qiguan Rang鈥檚 question. She signaled for them to sit down before she asked the messenger to come in.

She said with a hoarse voice, 鈥淩epeat what you just told me to the gentlemen.鈥?/p>

Their hearts jolted upon hearing Jiang Pengji鈥檚 voice. They tacitly turned their attention to the messenger. The more they listened, the heavier their hearts felt.

The messenger said, 鈥淭his morning, a soldier with severe injuries arrived outside the city. After careful identification, he turned out to be from the Lord鈥檚 troop. He only managed to say, 鈥楾he Tsing Yi Army has besieged Fengyi County. They attacked the troops at night and killed many people.鈥?He鈥檚 in a coma due to his injuries. His life is still in danger.鈥?/p>

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 stormed 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 messenger came in. 鈥淟ord, the troop member who brought the message woke up.鈥?/p>

Jiang Pengji replied, 鈥淕et someone to bring him in!鈥?/p>

Two people came in carrying a stretcher. A troop member, 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, 鈥淟ang鈥撯€揕angjun鈥?the Tsing鈥?Yi Army鈥?Those b*stards made a sneak attack鈥?and many of the guys are injured鈥?It鈥檚 hard to tell whether they鈥檒l survive鈥?Langjun, you have to save them鈥︹€?/p>

Jiang Pengji gritted her teeth and responded, 鈥淚鈥檒l bring them back without losing any of them!鈥?/p>

Upon hearing her promise, the troop鈥檚 lips trembled. With nostalgia and regret in his eyes, he died.

After a while, Feng Jin put his finger underneath the troop鈥檚 nose and checked his pulse. He muttered, 鈥淗e鈥檚 gone.鈥?/p>

Jiang Pengji bit her lower lip and suppressed the anger surging in her heart. 鈥淏ury him properly.鈥?/p>

With the exception of the first troops, which were her servants, and the soldiers Meng Hung brought with him, her troops were former bandits.

At first, they submitted themselves to Jiang Pengji鈥檚 rule to survive. However, as time 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 time she reopened her eyes.

She said in a flat tone, 鈥淚 want to dispatch some troops to save them.鈥?/p>

Feng Jin spoke after a while, 鈥淚 understand how you feel. I don鈥檛 intend to stop you. I just hope that you understand what it means to dispatch the troops. A thousand things need to get done in the Xiangyang District. It鈥檚 so weak that it can鈥檛 withstand a single blow. If you send help, I鈥檓 afraid鈥︹€?/p>

Jiang Pengji replied, 鈥淚 know that it is very risky, but I can鈥檛 let any of my followers think that I鈥檇 abandon them in their time of need. I won鈥檛 leave anyone behind. They鈥檙e my troops鈥撯€揕iu Xi鈥檚 troops!鈥?/p>
