Chapter 474: After a Woman Disguised as a Man is Exposed 5
After the morning training, Chu Yuan came to the door of the general's tent and said, "Big brother, the general asked me to come and report after the training today. Please help to inform him."
"Chu Yuan, right? The general told me. Wait, I'll go in and report it first."
Not long after, Chu Yuan heard the general's rough voice through the tent: "Let him in."
After the guards came out, Chu Yuan walked into the tent and said, "Greetings, General. Your subordinate Chu Yuan is here to report in."
In addition to the general, there were two men standing on the left and right in the tent. Judging from their clothes, they did not look like royal guards. They should be military officers or deputy generals. However, Chu Yuan did not know them, so he did not salute them easily.
"Stand up, these two are my lieutenants Hu Bing and Deng Kaixuan. I called you here this time because I have a mission for you. Let Lieutenant Deng tell you."
For some reason, Chu Yuan saw a hint of unnaturalness and guilt on the general's face, and the expressions of the remaining two deputy generals were not very good either.
This made Chu Yuan, who was already nervous, even more confused, so she looked at the deputy general Deng standing on the left side of the general and said, "I don't know what your Excellency wants me to do, but I will do it even if it means my death."
Deng Kaixuan helped her up and said, "It's not a matter of life and death. The general sent me to disguise myself and go to Weicheng City to get information. However, the city is heavily guarded, so it would be best if I could have a woman with me so as not to arouse the enemy's suspicion."
Weicheng City is the nearest enemy city to Yin Dynasty. The original owner was sent to block the enemy reinforcements in order to assist the general in attacking Weicheng City, but was betrayed to death by the heroine.
But that was something that would happen half a year later. I didn't expect that the general would have his eyes on the enemy's city so early.
As for the woman accompanying them... Could it be that her identity as a woman has been discovered? Were they so quick that they had already found out all her details after only a short training session?
Before Chu Yuan could reply, Deputy General Deng continued, "The general said that since you are short and thin, you can dress up as a woman and accompany me to complete this mission. You are also quite skilled, so if someone gives you trouble, you can protect yourself."
Chu Yuan understood that he was going to serve as a cover for this Deputy General Deng.
She never thought that the general valued her for this reason. She thought it was her demonstrated skills that attracted the general's attention.
But the end result is the same, as long as the final goal is achieved, it doesn't matter what the reason is.
"Thank you for your trust, General. I will definitely fulfill my mission."
Letting a woman dressed as a man dress up as a woman will definitely help her fulfill her mission. After all, who in the world can be more realistic than a woman dressed as a woman?
General Wei reached out his hand and patted her shoulder heavily a few times: "Thank you for your hard work."
This mission was very urgent, and we had to set off early the next morning. We had originally thought that if we couldn't find a suitable candidate, we would let Lieutenant General Deng go alone. Unexpectedly, Chu Yuan suddenly appeared and caught General Wei's attention.
When two people travel together, a man and a woman, the probability of being discovered is lower and it is also more convenient to act.
The trip to Weicheng City was not a round trip on the same day, so the general gave her some money to carry with her, so that if the two of them unfortunately got away, she would have some money to keep with her.
Chu Yuan weighed the few strings of money in the purse and thought that General Wei was not rich either. She had thought that such a nobleman could easily give out a silver ingot.
But think about it, to maintain the daily expenses of such a large military camp, the wages that are exploited at various levels and then transported to the north are not enough. Most of General Wei's fortune must have been invested in it.
Chu Yuan had very complicated feelings towards this great general.
As a general, he was good at planning and making good use of talents, and he led the soldiers of Yin Dynasty to win many great victories.
It can be said that in today's Yin Dynasty, most of the territory is protected by this person.
But in terms of private life, Chu Yuan was really not to be praised. When he was in the capital, a young lady from an official family became pregnant before marriage just after she came of age.
Later, he got drunk and leaked such important military secrets, which really made her at a loss for words.
All in all, merits and demerits cannot be offset, and he will have to bear the blame sooner or later.
......
In order to make it easier for Chu Yuan to dress up as a woman, she was arranged to stay in a nearby farmer's house that night, and an old lady who sold rouge in the town was responsible for dressing her up.
It was still pitch dark when they set out, and Lieutenant General Deng could not see Chu Yuan's face clearly. He only knew that she was a young lady dressed in women's clothes with two buns on her head.
It was not until he had ridden for nearly half an hour and the sky was just beginning to brighten that he caught a glimpse of the makeup on Chu Yuan's face.
He couldn't help but grin and laugh: "Hahahaha, you know what, the general has good taste. I didn't expect that Chu Yuan, when you dress up as a woman, you can be so... so similar."
Chu Yuan couldn't help but roll his eyes. If you ignore the lip balm as thick as lard on her lips and the rouge on her cheeks that looked like a monkey's butt, she might really look like a woman.
After the lady finished dressing her up, Chu Yuan only had time to take a quick look in the bronze mirror before Deng Kaixuan, who arrived on horseback, urged her to set off.
She didn't even have time to adjust her makeup, which looked like she had eaten a child, and could only grit her teeth and ride on her horse.
