Some things seem difficult to solve, but when you look at them from another angle, everything changes.
As Ling Huiwu set off again, everything was solved when she came back again.
Lin Haoming didn't know what happened between Ling Huiwu and Kong Lingzhi, but Ling Huiwu came back and confidently told Lin Haoming that Kong Lingzhi would cooperate well.
Lin Haoming believed in Ling Huiwu's judgment, and then as the two parties contacted each other, they began to play each other. Kong Lingzhi regained the three military villages in Tianzhu Mountain, while Lin Haoming guarded Longwei Pass.
In this way, both sides seemed to have an explanation, and Lin Haoming could use this to stabilize the rear. At the same time, he sent troops into Nanhai County, and then extended the county from several cities directly towards the place where the tribes lived.
If the Western Kingdom did this, there would naturally be great opposition. However, as the occupiers would do this, because they were afraid that Lin Haoming would really kill him, the tribes in these jungles would naturally be more obedient.
Lin Haoming knew that it would take time, at least two generations, forty or fifty years to fully integrate. Of course, it would be much faster for some tribes that had already integrated.
Time just fell silent in the confrontation. It seemed that everyone was getting what they needed. After stabilizing the south, the Western God Kingdom also seemed to have a new strategic plan, first north and then south.
With the south temporarily stabilized, Mo Yiqi began to use troops in the north, while the southern Gulicai defenders and the Southern God Kingdom seemed to have no solution at all.
Yang Yanshun, the national army of the Western God Kingdom, seemed to be very satisfied with this situation, so he further established the plan of first north and then south, and invested more in the Northern God Kingdom.
In this way, three years passed in the blink of an eye from the time we captured Longweiguan.
Lin Haoming went up the Jun River and finally returned to Junjing City after three years of expedition.
When he returned to Junjing City, the first thing he did was to be canonized as a general.
According to Lin Haoming's reforms, Yang Kangkai began to promote the reform of the army two years ago after seeing that Lin Haoming successfully captured two counties and that the new army was extremely powerful. The specific military ranks and levels were greatly innovated, and almost all of them were still used What Lin Haoming said.
Lieutenant officers, colonel officers and general officers are all set into four levels: junior, middle, senior and senior, and all previous titles have been cancelled.
After the reform, Lin Haoming was initially a lieutenant general, and now he was promoted to general because of his military exploits. However, unlike Lin Haoming's original reform, there was still a divine general above the general. However, Lin Haoming could spot this divine general at a glance. , is essentially a false title with no actual meaning.
In the court, Yang Kangkai praised Lin Haoming vigorously. After leaving the court, he invited him to the study to talk at length late at night, and was finally stayed directly in the palace.
Such an honor is indeed rare, and it also makes more people aware of the status of General Cotton.
Early the next morning, Lin Haoming was summoned to see Yang Kangkai again. In the afternoon, Lin Haoming was ordered to the harem to teach the little prince.
"Teacher." Yang Ling was very excited when facing Lin Haoming. Although they hadn't seen him for many years, he still seemed to remember him.
"General, Ling'er knew you were coming and has been waiting for a long time." Concubine Ling also smiled and looked like a mother who loves her children.
"Your Majesty, I have been away from home all year round and have not taught your highness the prince well. It is really..."
"Teacher, you are fighting for the country, and I can't wait to be by your side." Yang Ling interrupted Lin Haoming and took the initiative to persuade him.
Lin Haoming looked at this child. He was smart, clever, and indeed had a lot of potential. He was only eight or nine years old, and he could already see what Mingjun would look like in the future. This also made Lin Haoming somewhat emotional.
"That's nonsense, how old are you?" Ling Fei said deliberately.
"Mother and concubine, although the child is young, as a prince, I can't help with big things, but I can still boost morale." Yang Ling said with a very serious face.
Lin Haoming couldn't help laughing when he heard it.
"Teacher, you have been on the front line all year round. I would like to hear about what is going on at the front line." Yang Ling saw that Lin Haoming was in a good mood and asked accordingly.
Lin Haoming looked at his expectant eyes, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll tell you something."
In the evening, it was inconvenient for the foreign minister to stay, so Lin Haoming ended his talk here. At this time, Concubine Ling took the initiative to ask Yang Ling to bring the prepared gifts to the teacher.
After Yang Ling heard this, he immediately ran to his room. At this moment, Concubine Ling also came up and asked, "How have you been outside these past few years?"
"Everything is fine. Gu Licai, the descendant, has given me a lot of trouble. In order to make him compromise, I told her your identity. Of course, this is also to confirm that he is definitely not your two brothers." Lin Haoming said in a short sentence. .
Concubine Ling frowned slightly when she heard this, but quickly continued: "He is one of ours now, right?"
"Indeed, but there is still some hesitation. Obviously I am afraid of offending you, but I don't want to completely submit to others. I also want to ask you for a guarantee when I come back this time." Lin Haoming said.
"There's no problem with this. As long as he is willing to help me, it's not difficult." Concubine Ling agreed after thinking for a while.
Just as Lin Haoming was about to say something else, Yang Ling came out with something. He ran up to Lin Haoming with excitement and handed a leather armor in his hand to Lin Haoming.
"Teacher, this is the bear skin of an armored bear that is only available in the Kingdom of Northern God given to me by my father on my birthday last time. I made it into leather armor and gave it to the teacher." Yang Ling seemed to be sincere in saying. .
Lin Haoming looked at the leather armor. The size seemed to suit him very well, so he nodded and said, "You are interested."
Whether it was to win people's hearts or something else, Lin Haoming felt that this Yang Ling was indeed not simple, considering how old he was.
"Ling'er, go to my room and bring me the ginseng. Since you gave me a gift, the mother can't be empty-handed." Concubine Ling obviously had something to say, so she demolished her son again.
Yang Ling didn't care and went immediately.
As soon as he left, Concubine Ling continued: "Since Gu Licai is here to take orders from us, I think the time is almost here. If you leave this time, go and check on him. If you are sure there is no problem, I will prepare it here." Now, Yang Kangkai can die at any time."
When Lin Haoming heard the last word "death", he felt that Concubine Ling seemed to be getting more and more cruel to Yang Kangkai. He didn't know why, but at least on the surface he got the news that Yang Kangkai's favor for Concubine Ling had never weakened by half.
"I know, but I can't rush the ancient materials. I need to prepare and it may take another year or two." Lin Haoming replied after thinking for a while.
"There's no problem with this." Concubine Ling also agreed.
"Mother, is this the one?" At this time, Yang Ling also ran out, holding a brocade box in his hand.
"Not bad." Concubine Ling took the brocade box, opened it and showed it to Lin Haoming: "The general is fighting on the front line. I am still young and really can't use it."
"Thank you very much, Concubine Ling. I'm not polite to you, but I will repay the favor for the country with all my heart." Lin Haoming pretended to be greatly favored and expressed his gratitude.
