Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable-Chapter 1191 - 1101: The Female Chancellor 39

General Feng treats his soldiers very well; he never shortchanges their pay or provisions. His troops are all strong and robust, which enables them to be undefeated on the battlefield.

At this moment, a line of fifty tall and powerfully built men stood before Yin Shuangshuang.

Originally, these men were elite troops under General Feng, far superior to ordinary soldiers. However, for killing the barbarians they were meant to kill, they’ve ended up being slaves for life, unable to rise again, which inevitably evokes a sense of regret.

Such damnable imperial power, the victims crushed beneath the wheel of authority. Indeed, one must wield power, or else be mere fish meat for others.

Yin Shuangshuang once again strengthened her resolve; to protect those she wished to protect, she could only gain power. She must become the knife and board, never the fish meat.

Though these fifty men have fallen to such a state, none showed expressions of complaint or resentment on their faces. They still look imposing, standing there with straight posture akin to the modern national flag guards, carrying the iron-blooded aura of soldiers.

Yin Shuangshuang assessed these men, satisfaction flickering in her eyes. They are all good candidates for martial training; if she trains them well, each will become a master.

The multitude made name recognition difficult, so Yin Shuangshuang divided them into two groups with code names. On normal days, they are called by their names, but when in Yin Shuangshuang’s presence, they use their code names.

One group’s code names begin with "Yan," ranging from Yan Yi to Yan Twenty-Five.

The other group’s code names begin with "Yun," ranging from Yun Yi to Yun Twenty-Five.

Yan Yi manages the Yan group, while Yun Yi manages the Yun group. Yan Yi and Yun Yi were already the most respected individuals among these men, making their leadership unquestioned.

Ying Nan took great interest in the newly arrived men, challenging Yan Yi and Yun Yi to a spar on the first day.

Initially, Yan Yi and Yun Yi underestimated Ying Nan, thinking she wouldn’t be formidable since she was a young lady. But upon engaging, they realized otherwise; Ying Nan completely dominated them.

Despite Ying Nan never having been on the battlefield, she was no stranger to real combat, for Mr. Nameless had a remarkable knack for raising her.

When Ying Nan wished to learn martial arts, Mr. Nameless stated she should learn real fighting skills fit for the battlefield, or not learn at all. Flowery arts were useless; were they meant for performing to please a husband someday?

Thus, once Ying Nan became proficient, Mr. Nameless sent her, accompanied by guards, to eliminate bandits in some mountain strongholds. Those bandits were bloodthirsty, as ferocious as the savage barbarians on the battlefield.

Though Ying Nan hadn’t truly been on a battlefield, she didn’t feel timid when fighting; she was no different from those soldiers who’d fought and killed.

Having been taught by a renowned master, Ying Nan’s martial arts were excellent. Yan Yi and Yun Yi had only received general military training without meticulous guidance or a famous mentor, so naturally, they couldn’t rival Ying Nan even with equal courage.

They couldn’t win one-on-one or two-on-one, eventually calling in their subordinates, barely achieving a draw with fifteen against one.

Since the soldiers’ arrival, Ying Nan, previously constantly by Yin Shuangshuang’s side, changed her routine, frequently sparring with Yan Yi and Yun Yi. This girl had a great liking for martial arts.

Previously, she professed she would learn much from Yin Shuangshuang’s influence.

Yet, whenever Yin Shuangshuang and Mr. Nameless discussed knowledge and books, Ying Nan would initially listen energetically but soon began nodding off.

Ying Nan clearly demonstrated through her actions, the truth of her words: anything related to learning made her sleepy, and reading put her to sleep instantly.

Back then, Ying Nan’s habit almost worried Mr. Nameless to death. After painstakingly teaching this precious granddaughter to read commonly used characters, ensuring she wasn’t illiterate, he sent her to Master Wu for martial arts, preferring not to see her struggle with academics.

Recently, Yin Shuangshuang felt quite bored as Mr. Nameless had been taken away by the County Magistrate for unknown reasons, and Ying Nan frequently sparred with Yan Yi and Yun Yi.

Mrs. Wang and Yin Zheng were busy learning the art of spice blending these days; nowadays, Yin Shuangshuang’s major source of income depended on spices.

Crafting headpieces took too much effort, so Yin Shuangshuang no longer spent entire days creating them as she did when urgently needing money. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Moreover, Yin Shuangshuang’s health was quite weak; a little fatigue left her exhausted for days, and neglecting warmth brought bitter medicinal tonics. To spare her from overexertion, Mrs. Wang and Yin Zheng tried their utmost to lighten her load.

Besides, spiritual interests shouldn’t be solely commercial; Yin An was watching over the Silver Frost Charcoal business, so she let Mrs. Wang and Yin Zheng manage the spice trade.

The hardest part of spices was the formulation, which Yin Shuangshuang had developed; she directly handed the recipes to Yin Zheng and Mrs. Wang.

Lately, this couple has been focused on perfume-making, staying secluded with their fragrances, emerging fragrant each time, too busy to converse with Yin Shuangshuang.

Feeling idle, Yin Shuangshuang combined modern society’s special forces training methods with her newly devised martial arts moves, forming a training plan to enhance Yun Yi and Yan Yi’s combat capabilities.

It couldn’t be helped; this world was a low martial realm, where even cultivation was beyond reach, and lofty skills were unattainable, with inner strength merely a feeling.

In such circumstances, only external martial arts were practical, enhancing bodily flexibility to improve combat power.

Yin Shuangshuang wrote this training plan carefully, placing it on the desk when Mr. Nameless, accompanied by a middle-aged man, arrived at the study to find her.

Noticing the training plan on her desk, he curiously picked it up to read, and his eyes immediately lit up.

"Marvelous! If this training method could be widely used in the military, the Daxia army would surely be undefeated against barbarians in the future."

"That’s impossible," Yin Shuangshuang interjected, pouring cold water on his enthusiasm.

"Please first check how intense the training regimen is; such extent requires trainees to eat three meals a day, all solid meals with substantial meat intake.

This food alone would consume an unknown amount of silver coin; how could the court approve?

The Emperor might train a guard like this to protect himself, but he wouldn’t invest such funds in the army.

Forcing training with insufficient food would only cost lives, ultimately harming the soldiers."
