Chapter 242: 1 Sound

When they learned that the emperor had personally led the vanguard to pursue the enemy, both civil and military officials were extremely anxious.

Scholar Jin even snatched the horse of the soldier who brought the victory message and immediately ran towards the battlefield. The guards reacted quickly and also grabbed the horse to chase him.

Of course, Grand Secretary Lin was unwilling to fall behind, so he ran to find his horse, and when he saw Shen Xiaoye, he called out, "You come too."

"Are you going? If you chase the emperor you won't be able to pick up spoils." The little black cat also felt that the emperor's wealth was not as attractive as his possessions.

Shen Xiaoye thought for a moment and decided: "Go rescue the wounded first."

But when she went to look for her horse, Xuanmiao was also looking for her: "Hurry, go with the rescue team to save people."

"Here we come." Shen Xiaoye quickly got on the horse and joined the rescue team in an instant.

When the old military doctor saw her coming, he nodded with satisfaction, but when he saw the little black cat on her shoulder, he started to scowl again.

Shen Xiaoye ran fast and didn't see the old man getting angry again. They had arrived at the battlefield and had no time to think about anything else. Saving their own wounded soldiers was the most important thing.

Among the wounded soldiers who were still conscious, someone started to sing folk songs loudly, and soon many other wounded soldiers responded.

They defeated Dada Khan last month and defeated Dada Grand Master this month. How great!

As a result of the roar, many people's injuries became more serious, which increased the working hours of rescue workers like Shen Xiaoye.

So when she returned to the battlefield after being busy for a while, the soldiers in the rear team had almost cleaned up the place, and it was already late, so it would be dangerous to touch the spoils.

As he was sighing, he suddenly heard several centurions shouting at their soldiers to light torches, and required them to form groups of three to prevent the enemy soldiers from faking their own death and injuring others.

"It's a pity that the rescue team can't leave." She said to Xuanmiao with regret.

"Who said that? Follow me in now." The old military doctor appeared out of nowhere, followed by a dozen young team members.

Everyone knew her and knew that she was Shen Changsui's niece, so they took good care of her.

Shen Xiaoye responded immediately and caught up with the old man to ask, "Why can you go?"

The old military doctor glanced at her and said, "Your Majesty loves the nurses the most. Whenever he gets something, he will go to the medical account to select something that can be used.

Neither cavalry nor infantry will compete with us.

Moreover, we are here to dig up corpses and cremate and bury them to prevent plague. Do you think you are picking up money?"

"Your Majesty is wise." Shen Xiaoye discovered that the old military doctor was a fan of the current emperor.

The old military doctor was speechless. After a moment, he said, "You are a girl and you don't know medicine. After you pick up the things, please step back."

Although the soldiers of the Great Zhou would not strip the enemy's bodies naked like the Dada people when dealing with their bodies on the battlefield, their rough methods were always unsightly at times.

The old military doctor did not say much about Xuanmiao's several female nuns who were skilled in medicine. In his mind, as a doctor, there is no distinction between men and women.

Shen Xiaoye readily agreed, but after searching for a long time, he didn't find anything valuable.

The little black cat complained to her, "You might as well go and rob the cattle, sheep and horses in the tribe."

Then she discovered that the old man was not only there to restrain the enemy, he also used the opportunity of stripping many naked enemy soldiers to tell the rescue team where the fatal injuries were.

After working until late at night, Shen Xiaoye finally touched a small pearl and wondered which noble the deceased was.

But this did not comfort her for working until midnight, because she could not eat dinner.

Xuanmiao also said that she had seen little and would need to gain experience in the future.

There was no conversation that night. He fell asleep on the carriage board next to the medical tent. After another busy day, he heard how the emperor had caught up with people and killed many enemies.

Because there were not enough people at the front, she still had to follow the medical tent to treat another group of wounded.

But when they arrived at sunset, they were really shocked. Not far ahead of the battle site, there were endless cars and felts thrown on both sides of the road.

There are even various daily necessities, such as buckets, wooden beds, braziers, and so on.

Although some vehicles were damaged, some were still intact.

Shen Xiaoye and everyone were able to choose vehicles to transport the wounded, and she also met Lin Daxueshi who was checking the number of people.

Master Lin did not ask her why she did not catch up the day before yesterday, but said: "Rest here tonight, don't walk at night after a tiring day.

Later, go to the small kitchen in front with your teammates to eat. The cook will cook porridge with the captured corn."

"Hmm." That's great. Shen Xiaoye didn't know how she managed to persist in eating dry rice that had been steamed and dried ten times and soaked in salt every day. It was tasteless.

She was extremely impressed by the fact that the soldiers ate this during years of marching. The only military rations she could think of were fried flour and fried rice noodles.

But those are not easy to store in the summer and are not as filling as dry rice.

Shen Xiaoye learned her lesson this time. She decided to eat before cleaning the battlefield.

……

Two days later, Shen Xiaoye received news of victory again. He felt numb to it. But you reported the good news that Grand Tutor Dada was captured alive or killed in battle.

After catching up with the third battlefield, they did not see the emperor, but instead saw a narrow strip of land called Quhuijin, which was crowded with herds of cattle, sheep and herdsmen's hunting dogs.

If the sight of vehicles traveling for hundreds of miles before shocked everyone, then the sight of cattle and sheep traveling for dozens of miles this time was even more shocking.

"There must be a million livestock, right? I wonder how much they can be exchanged for if we send them to the capital." Shen Xiaoye's abacus clattered.

She found Lin Daxueshi who was still checking the quantity and asked, "Is mine included in the distribution?"

"Of course there is. Your Majesty allows everyone to eat as much meat as they want at once." Grand Secretary Lin said with a smile.

Shen Xiaoye said: "It would be a pity to eat them. The sheep are fine, but some cattle must be left behind.

Especially for calves, if we select more of them and train them to plow the land, we can lower the price of cattle in Shuntian Prefecture and make them more affordable for ordinary people.

Even other cattle could be driven back to the capital to be sold as meat, or sent to the south to be sold.

In this way, your Majesty's treasury will surely be more abundant."

"That's a good idea. Why don't we divide the live cattle and sheep among the soldiers and let them sell them whenever they want?" Scholar Lin considered the feasibility.

Shen Xiaoye asked: "Will it work if I mention it?

Once they leave your Majesty’s sight, will the live cattle and sheep still fall into the hands of the soldiers?

Even if there is no guarantee, it would be better if Your Majesty organized people to sell the cattle and sheep and exchanged the money for rewards to ordinary soldiers."

Scholar Lin said, "The live sheep are in the hands of the soldiers. How can we guarantee that the money will arrive?"

"Wasn't the reward money from the Emperor's Lao Army distributed on the spot? Is there anyone who dares to covet it now?" Shen Xiaoye asked back, and then while the other party was in deep thought, she clasped her fists again and left.

Little Black Cat said happily: "Do you feel tired talking to him?"

"Ah."

"I hope Shen Changdang won't become like him."

"Uncle won't."

"hehe."

Shen Xiaoye couldn't care less, but she hoped to catch Aru as soon as possible so that she could fulfill her wish.

Perhaps her wish was too strong, but later that day, Xia's guards and his men, who were lurking in the enemy camp, captured Aru alive while he was escaping.

But during the pursuit, Lu Guan fell into the water and disappeared.
