Lin Kai felt as if he had seen similar people somewhere before.

But I can't quite remember where it is.

I hesitated for a moment.

"Never mind... but those 20 iron cavalry..."

Lin Kai shook his head and continued walking forward.

Objectively speaking, this news is still useful. For example, according to the laws of female-oriented content, these 20 iron cavalrymen will definitely hate Dali to the bone.

How exactly to utilize it was what Lin Kai was concerned about.

After three incense sticks burned.

Lin Kai stepped into the prisoner-of-war area of ​​the military camp on the outskirts of Liaocheng.

"General Lin, please."

"This humble general is willing to surrender."

With her hands bound, Simuer struggled to her feet and bowed slightly to Lin Kai.

"?"

Seeing this, Lin Kai raised his eyebrows.

So decisive? Aren't you going to test the waters first?

But after thinking about it...

"Erdayucha was your superior, and now that Erdayucha is dead, you surrender so readily?"

With a cold snort, Lin Kai walked towards the main seat in front.

"The fact that the general was able to defeat Erda Yuqia's 100,000 soldiers in a head-on battle naturally demonstrates the general's extraordinary bravery and prowess."

"Though the southern barbarians are a land beyond the reach of civilization, they are willing to follow true warriors!"

With difficulty, Simuer turned around and began to speak, word by word.

Upon hearing these words, Lin Kai's eyes flickered.

"What a pity... I can't see loyalty..."

Sitting in his seat, Lin Kai sighed.

Otherwise it would be even simpler... but judging from the fact that political intrigue in female-oriented novels is generally considered to be like a three-year-old playing house...

"Can you persuade the remaining Nanman soldiers?"

Sitting up straight with his head slightly tilted forward, Lin Kai tentatively began to speak.

These words were spoken.

"nature."

Simuer's expression turned serious, and she nodded.

"Oh? These are a full 29470 Southern Barbarian soldiers, and you're just one..."

"General, you may not know this, but I was once the commander of this army. It was just that fate played a cruel trick on me, which is why I had to..."

"?"

...

Lin Kai was struggling with this decision.

But at the town gate of Liaocheng.

"Hmph! Lin Kai, you brat, how dare you humiliate this old man!"

An elderly man, around seventy years old but in good health, stood on the ground, stretching his body as he spoke with a gloomy expression.

Upon hearing this...

"Lord Guo, please calm down. The matter is over now, we..."

The general in armor patted the old man on the shoulder.

He was only halfway through offering words of comfort.

"What do you mean by 'it's all over'? Does it mean we should just let it go?"

"I, Guo Congji, have served Emperor Lingzong of the Great Qian Dynasty for over twenty years, rising from the border army to the powerful Earl of Enyi, whose fame resounds throughout the land. Even when I was forced to surrender to Emperor Taizu of the Great Li Dynasty in order to conform to the general trend of the world, I have never suffered such humiliation!"

"Now, a mere third-rank general bestowed by the imperial court thinks he can ride roughshod over me?"

The old man turned his head, his eyes wide as big as copper bells, glaring angrily at the general.

"Gulp!"

Looking directly into Guo Congji's eyes, the general couldn't help but swallow.

next moment.

"Thump!"

The general bent his knees and knelt directly on the ground.

"Uncle Guo, what you say makes perfect sense."

"But Lin Kai was, after all, a general personally appointed by Emperor Renzong, who had command and control over the sixteen guards of the Minnan Province."

"If something happens to Lin Kai in Zhenliaocheng, the Emperor will be furious, and Zhenliaocheng will surely be stained with blood."

Raising his head and looking up at Guo Congji, the general spoke expectantly.

"Please, Lord Guo, consider that I also have parents and children..."

After a pause, the general added.

just.

"Hmph! I've been on the battlefield for many years. Don't I know what I should and shouldn't do?"

Guo Congji's face remained gloomy. He waved his hand and then spoke angrily.

"What Master Guo means is..."

"I would never do such a thing as assassination, nor would I be so reckless, but I will definitely avenge this debt!"

"Your Excellency is right, it was I who..."

"I will send this petition to Emperor Renzong as quickly as possible tomorrow! I will certainly impeach Lin Kai!"

...

"Achoo! Achoo!"

After sneezing twice in a row, Lin Kai sniffed.

"That's strange. With my current physical condition, how could I possibly catch a cold?"

Looking at the increasingly dark suburbs around him, Lin Kai was a little suspicious.

Lin Kai, however, remained suspicious.

"Young Master, it's already late July. You should take good care of your health..."

A kind voice sounded from behind, and then a mink coat was draped over my shoulders.

"?"

Lin Kai was stunned when he saw the mink coat in his line of sight.

But very quickly.

"Cui Ji, after you get back, arrange for someone to keep a close eye on the Guo family's movements."

"Inform me immediately if the Guo family makes any moves."

Turning his head to look at Cui Ji beside him, Lin Kai waved his hand.

Keeping one's word is a basic quality of a head coach, and Lin Kai still believes that.

So if they said they would release the Guo family, they definitely will.

But releasing the Guo family does not mean abandoning surveillance of them.

Moreover, Lin Kai actually hoped that the Guo family would rebel, so that he would have a reason to confiscate their property. The Guo family must have a ton of treasures, right?

"OK."

Choi Ki nodded.

After taking a few more steps forward, I continued walking.

"Young Master, what about Simuer?"

"If we have an additional 20,000 or so 'former Southern Barbarian soldiers,' then your rebellion will be..."

Cui Ji turned his head and glanced at the barracks behind him.

Lin Kai remained silent.

Simuer was indeed the commander-in-chief of this army before, and he even had a good relationship with Erdayucha.

It's just a simple friendship.

After Erda Yuqia returned from Dali, it was Simuer who allowed her to stay in his barracks.

During this period, under Simuer's care and through Erdayucha's efforts, Erdayucha rose from a lowly soldier to a general, becoming Simuer's deputy.

But three years ago.

Bandits have emerged on the southern border, and Simuer is ordered to lead an expedition to quell them.

They fought two wars, with casualties on both sides. The commander, Simour, was even shot in the left arm by a stray arrow.

Just as Simul had quickly bandaged himself up and was preparing to continue fighting the Third War.

Erdayucha stopped Simuer and knocked him unconscious. Erdayucha then put on the general's armor and went to the front line.

Erda Yucha's exact words at the time were: You are my good friend, I can't just watch you go to your death!

"Let's not even talk about what it means for a deputy general to knock out a general in the middle of battle; nor about why the Southern Barbarians didn't investigate why the general deserted in the middle of battle."

"Erda Yuqia actually won? And the Southern Barbarians even appointed Erda Yuqia as a Grand General?"

Thinking it over, Lin Kai rubbed his right temple.

He's been troubled ever since he heard this story...

The female-oriented online literature platform really treats war like a complete joke...

I hesitated for several breaths.

"Incorporate these former Southern Barbarian soldiers into the Lin family army."

"But tell the captain that these people are only in the logistics and supply battalions for the time being, and they are absolutely not allowed to go to the front lines."

Lin Kai made a decision.

Let's use it for now; it's just a female-oriented novel with 'lacking combat power' for now... We'll train it more...

"I will obey your orders, young master."

Cui Ji cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.

...

After returning to the Lin residence, Lin Kai went straight to sleep.

After all, a day's worth of fighting takes a huge toll on one's energy.

In particular, Lin Kai was attacked by magic many times during the process...

It wasn't until halfway through the Chenshi (7-9 am) period the next day.

"Crunch—"

As Lin Kai's bedroom door was pushed open.

"Young Master! Young Master! Wake up!"

Choi Ki rushed in.

Upon hearing this, Lin Kai opened his sleepy eyes.

His gaze fell on Choi Ki's anxious expression.

"It's terrible! Guo Congji sent a memorial to Emperor Renzong last night by express courier!"

"?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Kai instantly sobered up.

Wait, why is this guy doing this?

"Guo Congji even threatened to severely criticize you, young master, in his memorials."

"Huh? Said in public?"

"That's right, Guo Congji also said that if Emperor Renzong doesn't agree to punish you, young master, he will personally go to the capital to plead his case, using the iron certificate of merit bestowed by Emperor Taizu!"

"..."

Meeting Cui Ji's gaze, Lin Kai remained silent for a moment.

"Alright..."

With a sigh, Lin Kai reached into his clothes and took out the breastplate.

It was just placed on the table next to me.

"Lin Kai, you brat! Get out here and apologize right now!"
