In Yang Ting's camp, Zhang Xuan was complaining about Shen Bing's injustice.
Zhang Xuan bowed his hands towards Yang Ting:
"Captain, there is something that I don't know whether to say or not?"
Yang Ting knew what Zhang Xuan was going to say and replied directly:
"Master Two-Five-Hundred wants to say something about Shen Bing's contribution, right?"
Zhang Xuan nodded and replied:
"Xiaowei Mingjian."
"My subordinates think that Shen Bing's income is far less than his contribution."
"Especially the counter-intentional plan. Not only did he kill Li Mu, but he also destroyed the State of Zhao."
"If this is about merit..."
Yang Ting sighed and interrupted Zhang Xuan:
"Why would I think so?"
"But two to five hundred masters..."
"That was a plan to kill Li Mu. This matter is not trivial!"
"If word spreads, King Zhao will know who is loyal and who is traitorous."
"If King Zhao now punishes the evildoers and rehabilitates Li Mu to stabilize the morale of the army, do you think it will be a benefit or disadvantage to our army?"
Zhang Xuan couldn't help but be shocked, this was something he didn't expect.
Yang Ting continued:
"This is just one of them. If Wang Bai knew that Shen Bing was using him and harmed Li Mu, what do you think Wang Bai would do?"
"In addition, there are other Northland soldiers who have come to surrender, as well as those who have not yet surrendered..."
Zhang Xuan was speechless.
As a Qin general, Zhang Xuan was not alone in confronting Zhao troops, and he knew that the northern soldiers were indeed different from other Zhao troops.
This "difference" refers not only to the heroic and skillful fighting of the Northern soldiers.
What's more, the Northern Army was trained by Li Mu... All the officers of the Northern Army were appointed and dismissed by Li Mu. This made the Northern Army like a separatist force more loyal to Li Mu than King Zhao.
This is also one of the reasons why the Zhao army collapsed quickly after Li Mu's death.
So what Yang Ting said was right. If word of Shen Bing's counterintuitive plan spread, it would probably lead to death.
Not to mention anything else, even Wang Bai and his gang who had surrendered would not give up.
Yang Ting continued:
"So, only you and I know about counter-intentional schemes!"
"Even the two to five hundred masters besides you... only know that this counter-intentional plan was set up by me, Yang Ting, not Shen Bing."
"One day, if the soldiers from the North seek revenge, they will come looking for me!"
Zhang Xuan was a little surprised. As a captain, Yang Ting was actually willing to block Shen Bing's arrows?
But when I think about it, I feel relieved.
Although Shen Bing was in the Qin camp, he was just a warrior. It would be extremely easy for Wang Bai and others to kill Shen Bing.
But Yang Ting is a school captain and is surrounded by thousands of personal guards. How can Wang Bai and others easily get close to her?
So this arrangement is reasonable.
Upon arriving, King Zhao still didn't know where he was wrong, and the Zhao army was still unsettled and morale low.
Secondly, the Qin army can also take this opportunity to recruit and surrender the fleeing northern soldiers, and even the northern soldiers will take the initiative to surrender to Qin because of Li Mu's death...
Thirdly, it can save Shen Bing's life and save him a lot of trouble.
Why not do it in one fell swoop?
As soon as he thought about this, Zhang Xuan raised his hands and said:
"What the captain said is true, and my subordinates are convinced!"
Yang Ting sighed again and shook her head:
"These are just part of the troubles."
"Presumably the two to five hundred masters also know who Feize and Fu Yong are, right?"
Zhang Xuan replied:
"I know that they have become general Wang Jian's disciples."
Yang Ting said:
"Just imagine, Shen Bing first improved the trebuchet and made several meritorious deeds. If General Wang Jian knew about it..."
Then Zhang Xuan understood in his heart.
This is talking about internal factional struggle.
Wang Jian knew that the only person in Qin who could compete with him was Yang Duanhe.
The likes of Meng Tian and Meng Yi didn't look down on them, but they were only afraid of Yang Duanhe, who had never been defeated.
So Wang Jian took Yang Duanhe into his account, and used various excuses to transfer talents, so that Yang Duanhe had no one available and could only be used by Wang Jian...
If things continue like this, Yang Duanhe will probably end up depressed under Wang Jian's account.
Who would want another Shen Bing to appear out of thin air...
Not to mention anything else, the fact that Shen Bing used a trick to kill Li Mu shows that his strategy was extremely unusual.
In other words... Whether Yang Duanhe will succeed in the future depends on him, so how can he be easily transferred by Wang Jian as usual?
Only then did Zhang Xuan finally understand.
After a pause, Yang Ting continued:
"So, Shen Bingchu, you need to explain it carefully."
"The credit will be given to him for the time being, but his rewards and titles will not be missing in the future."
Zhang Xuan cupped his hands and answered:
"My subordinate understands!"
But then I thought about it and asked again:
"Captain Lieutenant, what if Shen Bing makes great achievements in the future?"
“Not many people know anything about this alienation scheme, so it’s not a problem regardless of whether it’s meritorious or not.”
"But in the future, if the whole army knows that Shen Bing has made meritorious deeds... regardless of meritorious deeds, I'm afraid it will affect the morale of the army!"
Yang Ting nodded:
"My captain is also in trouble over this matter."
"The general also took this into consideration before moving the artillerymen to the rear."
"I'm afraid that if Shen Bing makes great achievements again, it won't be easy to hide it."
"Now he is cutting wood and building cannons in the rear. If I have any questions, I can just ask him."
"He's just a military officer, so what if he says a few words but doesn't give him credit?"
Zhang Xuan cupped his hands and answered:
"What the captain said is so true, so so appropriate!"
In fact, Yang Ting is conflicted.
She both hopes that Shen Bing will make meritorious deeds but also doesn’t want Shen Bing to make meritorious deeds...
I hope Shen Bing can be promoted to a noble title but I don't want him to be promoted to a noble title.
My heart was in a state of confusion.
At the same time, she felt that she had robbed Shen Bing of his achievements...
Shen Bing planned the divorce plan from beginning to end, but a group of two to five hundred people only thought it was Yang Ting's hand.
In the future, it will also fall on Yang Ting to spread the news or reward her based on her merits.
Although there is a reason for this, it is Shen Bing...
How could Yang Ting have the heart to take credit for Shen Bing's work?
Yang Ting walked back and forth in front of the case irritably, not at all complacent about returning home after a great victory.
At this moment, Liuxu ran in with a look of panic:
"It's a big deal, miss. Then Shen Bing has made a meritorious service again!"
Yang Ting couldn't help being surprised and asked:
"Meritorious service?"
"How can they still make meritorious deeds when they are building cannons in a dense forest?"
LiuXu answered breathlessly:
"They... they are in the dense forest..."
"Encountered Zhao Jun... remnant soldiers!"
"Then……"
Hearing this, Yang Ting couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief:
"They are just a few remnants of the Zhao army."
"Capturing a remnant soldier is not considered much credit even if it counts as beheading one!"
LiuXu answered with wide eyes:
"But, he captured hundreds of people..."
"And they are all Northern Goblin Riders!"
Yang Ting couldn't help but be shocked:
"What? What did you say?"
"Shen Bing's artillery division only has a hundred people, so how can they capture hundreds of remaining soldiers?"
"And it's a Northern Goblin Rider?"
LiuXu shook his head:
"I don't know, but Shen Bing has brought those Northern Goblins back to camp."
"There are also hundreds of war horses!"
Zhang Xuan was also stunned when he heard this.
Damn, is there such a thing?
How can we cover up the credit this time?
Yang Ting was even more anxious...
Hundreds of people were captured, but the whole army saw it. What should we do?
Shen Bing expressed helplessness:
I also want to keep a low profile, but my strength doesn’t allow it!
