Chapter 23 Calculation
  Xu Yihuan looked at Ye Shang.

Yeshang's face showed helplessness, and Xu Yihuan finally understood why he ignored her just now.

"Why? Rewards based on merit, hasn't this been the case in the military since ancient times? If this were the case, who else would be willing to work for the Jin Dynasty?" She eagerly wanted to find the answer from the faces of Ye Shang and Deputy General Du.

Yeshang raised his eyes and looked into the distance. In another hour and a half, it would be almost time to reach the camp.

Every time he captured baggage, captured prisoners, and won a battle, he felt ashamed of the soldiers who followed him.

And the three princes who were hiding in the army would snatch his military exploits and use them for their own purposes every time.

After coming here for three months, he had no choice but to report to His Majesty many times, but the final result was: the emperor and his younger brothers are all brothers, there is no need to worry about it. When the master returns to the court, he will be generously rewarded.

But Yeshang knew that this was just an excuse for His Majesty to stabilize him and let him continue to lead the troops in the war.

"Hmph." Vice General Du sneered: "If this is true, how can Marshal Xue have any chance of becoming the commander-in-chief of the Sixth Army?"

His voice was not loud, but Xu Yihuan felt that he was avoiding the soldiers and telling her.

Your Majesty doesn't like the prince, but he is also afraid that his military achievements will overwhelm his master, so he keeps changing his methods to suppress him.

"So, even if we win the battle, there will be no reward? What kind of natural principle is this?" In vain, she had always thought that winning a battle would lead to promotion and promotion. Even if she could not become an official, she would still be rewarded.

I didn’t expect that it would be so dark here in ancient times.

"It's just unreasonable." Deputy Du poured down a basin of cold water, his face surprisingly calm. His reaction to Xu Yihuan was no different, but he didn't expect that a daughter of a royal tutor would have such simple thoughts when encountering such a thing.

Xu Yihuan tightened her grip on the horse's reins: "Didn't anyone take care of it?"

Vice General Du shook his head, feeling helpless at Xu Yihuan's reaction. As expected, the newborn lamb still couldn't see clearly the dangers of society.

"Who cares? Your Majesty doesn't want to care about it. Who can care about it?" Vice General Du finished speaking, biting his lips angrily.

His eyes turned red all over.

When Xu Yihuan heard this, he became angry: "Then I will take care of it. I don't believe it. There can be no justice in this military camp."

"You, tell me, who is in charge of these things, and who bullies you on weekdays?" Xu Yihuan pointed the riding crop at the deputy general in an arrogant manner. She did not mean to discuss with him, but she clearly meant to tell him that you will be protected by me from now on.

Lieutenant General Du was stunned and glanced at Yeshang. Yeshang reined in his horse with an expressionless face and slowly followed the large group.

He grinned and said, "Miss Xu, it's not that I don't want to say it, but it's useless if I say it."

"Say, how can you know it's useless if you don't tell me?" Xu Yihuan's tone became strong, why is there no fairness anywhere? In her previous life, she was a worker, but now, she is a school captain. Can't she risk her life to fight for fairness for the soldiers?

Lieutenant General Du knew that if he didn't speak out today, he wouldn't be able to escape.

He stepped closer to Xu Yihuan and quietly reported the figures of the baggage and prisoners captured by Ye Shang in the past three months. He also told the story of Marshal Xue and the three princes grabbing credit and embezzling military expenses.

After hearing this, Xu Yihuan was so angry that her eyes almost popped out: "These trashes are so heartless."

Lieutenant General Du was startled by Xu Yihuan's reaction and quickly comforted her: "Keep your voice down, keep your voice down." He looked around and found that no soldiers were looking this way, so he felt relieved.

Lieutenant General Du reminded again, "Let's go. If we don't go, we will fall behind. We will reach the camp in another hour."

Xu Yihuan looked up and saw that Ye Shang was far away from the two of them.

"Let's go" Xu Yihuan reined in his horse, flicked his whip, and chased in the direction of Yeshang.

When the deputy general saw this, he whipped his horsewhip and kept up with the pace.

"Miss Xu, I'm just telling you these things. Don't be impulsive." Vice General Du rode beside Xu Yihuan with a worried look on his face.

He had seen Xu Yihuan's temper in the past two days. He was like a powder keg, ready to explode at a moment's notice, yet he was fearless.

If Miss Xu hadn't discovered something was wrong in advance today and discussed with him the decision after entering the mountain, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to capture so many prisoners. He followed quietly behind him and saw with his own eyes that Miss Xu even used her giant hands to stop the falling boulder at the mouth of the canyon.

He was shocked when he saw it from a distance. If Miss Xu hadn't come out safe and sound at this moment, he would have been skinned alive by the prince.

If he hadn't known that her body was different from ordinary people, he probably wouldn't have let her lead five centurions with ulterior motives into the canyon alone.

Thinking about it now, I still have lingering fears.

Xu Yihuan turned around and gave him a stiff smile: "I'm not impulsive."

Soon, Xu Yihuan caught up with Yeshang.

"Xu" The war horse under his crotch stopped in a daze.

Ye Shang turned his head, glanced at Xu Yihuan expressionlessly and said, "What is Captain Xu's idea?"

He guessed that Xu Yihuan already knew about their situation in the military at this moment. Based on his understanding of Xu Yihuan, she would not give up without making a fuss to seek justice.

Just like in the morning, she made a big fuss over the maid and beat the cook.

I'm afraid that her reaction at this moment will be even more intense than in the morning.

"Hehe" Xu Yihuan smiled awkwardly after seeing through her thoughts.

"As expected of the prince, I just don't know if the prince is willing to give all the credit to me. I will return it to the prince later." After saying that, she pointed to the soldiers following behind her.

Vice Admiral Du looked at her in surprise and pursed his lips. Did he hear it correctly? Miss Xu wanted to take away all the credit and ask for rewards?
  Wasn't what he said clear enough?
  Ye Shang thought for a moment: "Okay, just take whatever you want. Do you need me to do something?"

The corner of Xu Yihuan's mouth rose: "Take away the two thousand soldiers you brought with you and circle back to a place where no one can see the camp. Just pretend that you just came back from outside and don't know about this. Wait for me to enter for a quarter of an hour. Later, you come back from here.”

Xu Yihuan pointed to the current position. Ye Shang didn't know why, but seeing her vowed look, she wanted him to try it.

In the past three months, they had fought many victorious battles, large and small. Marshal Xue and the three emperor's brothers only wanted to steal his military glory, and they did not even offer a word of condolences to the dead and wounded soldiers. The soldiers now have many complaints.

But there was nothing he could do.

Ye Shang paused and raised his hand: "Go and do what Captain Xu said."

The lieutenant behind him held his hands and stepped back.

After a while, Xu Yihuan's five hundred elite soldiers were handed over to Yeshang's two thousand elite soldiers, and the soldiers brought by Vice General Du were also handed over to Yeshang.

Xu Yihuan looked at the scene behind him, where there were more prisoners than soldiers, and found it very funny.

"If that's the case, then there's Prince Lao."

Yeshang reined in his horse and looked behind him: "Be careful yourself." Although the prisoners were all tied up and unable to move, there were too many people after all, and there were so many baggage behind them.

Xu Yihuan nodded: "I know, I will let them know how to stay calm later."

Ye Shang reined in his horse and rushed forward with the four thousand soldiers behind him. He had to enter a quarter of an hour after Xu Yihuan returned to the base camp, which meant that he had to go around in a big circle and come back here, and then go back the same way.

Wait until Yeshang's four thousand soldiers leave.

Xu Yihuan ordered Lieutenant General Du to lead the team, and she personally guarded the prisoners' team. There were indeed a few dishonest prisoners who wanted to escape while there were few soldiers, but Xu Yihuan punched them all and calmed them down. .

In order to make the prisoners obedient, Xu Yihuan finally slashed ten prisoners with a knife. Within an hour, more than a thousand prisoners obediently entered Da Jin's camp.

"Go and tell the marshal that Xu Yihuan has captured 1,500 prisoners and supplies and returned to his life."
