Absurd! How Could the General Be a Woman?

Traveling to an ancient world where men were superior to women, Lin Yanxi lost her father at a young age and was dependent on her mother. She had to dress up as a man to protect the family business. In the seventh year of Zhaoxing, there was a severe drought in Jianchuan. A spring in the mountain behind the Lin family attracted the covetousness of the squires and ruffians. After the robbery failed, the ruffians designed her to go to the border to do corvee service. After the mountain was occupied, the young nobles were brutally killed by barbarians from the Northern Kingdom in Dongshui Village. The squire moved to Dongshui Village and imprisoned the entire village for collaborating with the enemy and treason. Lin Yanxi decisively joined the army in order to fight for a chance of survival. There were many people in the barracks, and there were even nobles who wanted to kill her. Lin Yanxi carefully concealed his identity while bravely killing the enemy on the battlefield. In just two years, he went from an ordinary soldier to a murderous general who made the enemies change their looks. However, the paper could not contain the fire, and a serious injury finally exposed her identity. It is a capital crime to deceive the emperor. Lin Yanxi was prepared for the worst, but the general at the edge of the town clapped his hands and suggested: "How about you get married to Zhao'er and cover up a few things?" * Under the control of some thoughtful people, the news that Lin Yanxi was actually a woman spread more and more fiercely in the market, and memorials of impeachment and criticism from courtiers were piled up on the emperor's desk. Eighteen imperial orders were sent to the north, summoning Lin Yanxi to return to the capital. The northern kingdom took the opportunity to invade, and troops came to the capital. The civil servants in the court were in chaos, but the generals refused to fight on the grounds of lack of food and pay. The civil servants had no choice but to let Lin Yanxi return to the border. After regaining control of the military, Lin Yanxi tore down the "Lin" general flag, changed his mother's surname, set up a "Su" flag, fought against the barbarians, retreated thousands of miles from the enemy, and returned with a great victory. The Northern Kingdom became a vassal. At the celebration banquet, she put on women's clothes and asked the ministers with a smile: "Do you think the world is safe?"
