Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 90

Within three days, all one hundred and twenty thousand reinforcement troops were all angrily discussing one thing: Carissa had been granted the title of fifth-rank Valor General without any notable achievements, solely relying on the prestige of her father and brothers.

Under Aurora's encouragement, the soldiers were incited to keep complaining to each other.

"If she wanted to ride on the military achievements of her father and brothers, she should stay in the capital and enjoy her life of luxury. Why does she need to come to the battlefield and steal our military merits?"

"We risk our lives to protect the country, all for the sake of honor and achievements. She did nothing and still got promoted to Valor General. How unfair is that?!

"It's well known that the marshal is strict in his military discipline. He rewards and punishes without any bias. Who knew that even he could show favoritism, giving such a big promotion to Lady Sinclair for nothing? What's the point of us fighting and killing on the battlefield? The enemies we kill might end up as her achievements."

"The Southern Frontier is in urgent need of support. We've trudged through snow, rain, and wind, with many soldiers falling ill along the way. Yet, we didn't rest for a moment. We marched day and night to reach the front lines."

"General Yates even endured her old injuries to avoid wasting the military medics' supplies, fearing there wouldn't be enough at the front lines. She would rather suffer herself, only for the marshal to scold her upon arrival and accuse her of being jealous of Lady Sinclair. He even handed over command of the Mystic Army to a divorced woman. If word gets out, wouldn't it be the biggest joke in Starhaven?" "Exactly! General Yates made decisive contributions at Victory Pass with just three hundred soldiers. Even so, she's still only a fourth-rank Tactical General, while Lady Sinclair, who was elevated by the marshal, is a rank higher."
