Words Strategize for the World

Chapter 58 A Small Promotion

Breaking through two minor realms in succession is an unprecedented event, one in ten thousand. Calling it a miracle is not an exaggeration at all.

Fang Hao was first incredulous, then stunned, and then overjoyed.

This feels amazing! I was just worried about increasing my strength, and I didn't expect to advance so quickly.

Although the General level is still the entry level, with the cheat ability, even if they encounter the Earth level, they won't be crushed.

Especially when encountering a martial artist of the Earth level, if the right strategy is used, there is still a chance of fighting.

This rapid improvement might pose some hidden dangers; it's best to ask the teacher about it when you meet them.

The room and the surrounding area were in complete disarray, as if a flood had swept through.

The room was damp and messy. Fang Hao stepped out of the room. As soon as he took a step, he heard Lai Fengwu's voice.

"Young master, are you alright?"

As Fang Hao stepped out of the room, he saw Lai Fengwu rush into the courtyard.

Since the decision to change has been made, let's start from now on.

Fang Hao stood proudly, raised his hand in a gesture of obstruction, and said, "Look at me, so well, do I look like I'm in trouble? Hahaha... Feng Wu, from now on, don't call me Young Master, call me Lord."

Lai Fengwu stopped and looked at Fang Hao in front of him. He felt that he was very different from before.

Although her appearance hasn't changed, her overall demeanor is completely different from when I saw her this morning.

Is this really the young master? Why does he seem so sharp, and why does he exude a subtle air of dominance? A dignified, fearless, and decisive aura emanates from within, inspiring a sense of genuine admiration in him.

"My lord? He's not called 'young master' anymore, but 'my lord'? Has things really changed, and changed so much?"

Hearing Fang Hao's words and sensing a new aura about him, Lai Fengwu couldn't help but mutter to herself.

"Feng Wu, what are you muttering about?"

Fang Hao's words rang in Lai Fengwu's ears. Although the words were the same, Fang Hao's tone startled Lai Fengwu.

It wasn't his tone that made him feel rejected, but rather the gentle, unquestionable, and slightly authoritative quality of his tone that made it impossible for him to refuse.

Lai Fengwu quickly replied, "No, I wasn't muttering anything, Princess... Princess."

"Alright, from now on you shall be called my lord. Come, follow me out."

At this moment, Fang Hao was in good condition, and since the room was no longer habitable, he decided to go out and take a look.

Meanwhile, Lai Fengwu had many questions in her mind.

The roar just now came from here, but I didn't find anything unusual when I got here. And then there's the change in the title of "Princess"...

Such a sudden change requires either experiencing a profound emotional ordeal or encountering something serious. Considering the commotion just now, Lai Fengwu guessed it was probably the latter.

What kind of severe event could change a person like this?

There are some things Fang Wei won't say, and people like Lai Fengwu will never understand through their speculations.

As soon as they stepped out of the courtyard with Lai Fengwu, they saw a group of people outside.

The leader was an elderly man who, upon seeing Fang Hao, inquired about what had just happened. Fang Hao simply explained that it was due to a breakthrough he had made.

After Fang Hao finished speaking, he saw that the old man's expression was one of utter astonishment.

This must be incredibly powerful to cause such a commotion.

Fang Hao didn't waste any more time with the old man and the crowd of onlookers. Instead, he had Lai Fengwu take him directly to the prefectural military office in the city.

"Feng Wu, where is Niu San now?"

Sensing Fang Hao's change, Lai Fengwu also began to adjust her role and attitude.

"My lord... I have never seen Niu San. I do not know where he is."

After thinking about it, it's understandable that Niu San didn't know when he left after Lai Fengwu.

"Fengwu, come with me to the county government's military affairs office. I've done a great service this time, and I must claim my credit. You deserve some credit for this too. From now on, you'll be my right-hand woman and will need to shoulder more responsibility."

Lai Fengwu was somewhat surprised to hear this, but after thinking about it, she felt it was normal. If it weren't for him this time, her lord might not have escaped this calamity either.

"My lord, if you need my help, I will do my utmost." Lai Fengwu was a sensible person. Since the lord had said that he wanted her to be his right-hand man, she had to make her stance clear.

"Good, I am fortunate to have Fengwu. Let's work together to achieve great things in the future."

Hearing Fang Hao's words, Lai Fengwu felt a surge of excitement, a feeling she hadn't experienced in many years.

Fang Hao was unaware that his words, meant to win people over, had unconsciously increased Lai Fengwu's trust in him.

The two soon arrived at the county government's military office.

After being announced by the soldiers at the gate, the two entered the compound.

As soon as he entered, an official came up to him and said, "This must be Fang Yashi. Please come in quickly. You were unconscious before the general left, and he specifically instructed that you be taken good care of after you arrive."

These words were very pleasing to the ear. He had barely managed to stop Han Jiang from defecting to the enemy after going through life and death, so he had to make a good impression. The most important thing was to get promoted and become stronger.

After the official helped Fang Hao sit down, he handed him a brocade pouch.

Fang Hao opened the brocade pouch; inside was a token and a letter.

The token was made of bronze, with a tiger's head engraved on one side and the character "令" (command) on the other. Stroking the bronze token, Fang Hao guessed that it should be a troop mobilization token.

He set down the bronze plaque, opened the letter, which mainly encouraged Fang Wei. He also told him that he had now been promoted to captain and could command a squad of 100 men.

The letter explained the matter regarding his promotion. Based on his merits, he should have been promoted to commander, but considering his youth and lack of experience, he was temporarily promoted to captain. He also received a reward of one thousand taels of gold.

After reading the letter, he understood. Although he was somewhat annoyed, he could accept it.

"Sir, where is my 100-man squad?"

The person is there, but he doesn't know where they are.

"Well... Mr. Fang, the military situation is urgent right now, and I don't have any manpower to give you. However, the general said you can recruit people yourself. Those you recruit can come to me to collect their weapons and armor, and they can rest in the military camp."

Hearing that he had to recruit the men himself, Fang Hao was somewhat angry, but after thinking about it, he had no choice but to accept it. Given the current situation, soldiers were definitely in short supply. Also, men he recruited himself would be more reliable in terms of loyalty.

Fang Hao cupped his hands in greeting and prepared to leave.

"Fang Yashi, this is the general's last instruction. He orders you to gather all the men within a day at most, and then go to Liangjiang County to find him."

One day is enough; it seems the situation on the front lines is indeed extremely tense. Alright, one day it is, we must recruit people.

Then, Fang Hao remembered Niu San.

"My lord, do you know one of my men, Niu San? He's the man who came to Taoshan Prefecture to deliver the message."

After thinking for a moment, the official told him that Niu San was at the post station.

After understanding everything, Fang Hao left the county government's military affairs office.

Now he must recruit 100 people as soon as possible to form a team and then set off for Liangjiang County.

The progress of the war on the front lines is unknown, but this war might just be his opportunity.

Fang Hao is not satisfied with the current situation. He needs to become stronger as soon as possible so that he can take control of his own life.

The 100 people he recruited might be his first pot of gold; it all depends on what kind of people he can recruit.
