I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory

On the second day, Lin Beifan held court and appointed Chai Yuxin as the General of the Western Garrison, a third-rank military officer of the imperial court.

Taking over 100,000 new troops from An Lushan, she set off to attack the Shang Kingdom in the west.

Chai Yuxin, excited to receive the imperial decree, did not return home and headed straight for the battlefield.

The Grand General Chai Yulang, realizing the situation belatedly, was nearly faint with anger: “Yuxin has never fought in a war, and she’s a woman at that. How can she be appointed as a general and lead troops into battle? His Majesty is being foolish!”

Prime Minister Xiao Guoliang sighed: “No wonder she seemed a bit off when she came back yesterday; she had already discussed it with His Majesty!”

“Even if she’s appointed as a general, she shouldn’t be attacking the Shang Kingdom!” the Grand General said in anguish.

“We’ve already offended the Mo Kingdom and the An Kingdom, and now we’re adding the Shang Kingdom to the list. We’re making enemies on three fronts; who wages war like this?”

“I’ve never seen such a way of waging war, but His Majesty won’t listen to a word I say! Forget it, let’s drink instead!”

“Let’s drink, today I want to get thoroughly drunk!”

……

The matter quickly became known to outsiders, and everyone was impressed.

“This foolish emperor has made another stupid move, actually appointing a vase woman to be a general, treating military affairs as child’s play!” (TLN: Vase woman, a woman who looks beautiful but lacks genuine depth.)

“I think he’s been blinded by lust once again, true to his foolish emperor nature!”

“Moreover, the Mo Kingdom is being attacked on three fronts. The opportunity is right before us, but instead of attacking Mo Kingdom, he goes after An Kingdom. Now, by attacking Shang Kingdom, he’s managed to offend three more powerful nations at the same time!”

“Nobody would do this even if they want to die, is this something a normal person would do?”

“I’ve already overestimated his stupidity, but he keeps breaking my upper limit!”

“Always imitated, never surpassed!”

“Bah! Who would dare to imitate him unless they want to die even faster?”

……

Upon receiving the news, the Emperor of the Mo Kingdom burst into laughter: “This foolish Emperor usually only causes trouble, but this time he’s finally done something good for me! If we get through this crisis, I must thank him properly!”

……

The Emperor of the Shang Kingdom’s face turned a shade of green with anger: “Has this foolish Emperor’s brain taken in water again? Not content with attacking the Mo Kingdom and the An Kingdom, now he doesn’t even spare my Shang Kingdom! His father was a man of great renown, admired by all—how could he have produced such a thing?”

His good mood for the day was completely ruined by this damned guy.

“Your Majesty, the Xia Kingdom has already dispatched 100,000 troops to the border between our two nations. What should we do?”

“What else can we do but send troops to defend our territory!? Once we’ve taken down the Mo Kingdom, we’ll deal with the Xia Kingdom!” the Emperor of the Shang Kingdom declared in a rage.

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

In order to protect their land, the Emperor of the Shang Kingdom had no choice but to recall 100,000 soldiers and add another 50,000 of his own, amassing a total of 150,000 troops to await the enemy at the border with vigilance.

At this time, the combined forces of the three nations that had invaded the Mo Kingdom had dwindled to only 400,000, greatly reducing the pressure on the Mo Kingdom.

Although the Mo Kingdom had only 200,000 troops, they occupied the city and had the advantage of the terrain, which meant that victory was not necessarily out of reach.

Thus, the battle became increasingly complex and confusing.

……

A month quickly passed by.

Due to Lin Beifan’s “foolish strategies,” the war for the Mo Kingdom had reached a stalemate.

Meanwhile, after two months of development, the Xia Kingdom had gotten back on track in various aspects.

“The mining operations have entered a stable phase, and we have begun to consistently produce large quantities of steel, bronze, silver, and more. These are all treasures of our Xia Kingdom!”

“The reclamation work is progressing smoothly; in another two months, the development will be complete and ready to welcome a bountiful grain harvest! In the future, we won’t have to worry about food issues anymore!”

“Half of the various canals have already been opened; in another two months, they will be interconnected throughout the country, creating a network that reaches everywhere!”

“By that time, my Xia Kingdom is set to soar!”

“Not only will the nation take off, but my own strength will also experience explosive growth!”

Lin Beifan thought to himself with great joy.

Just at that moment, someone patted him on the shoulder.

Lin Beifan turned his head to look, and there was Yaoyao.

For the past two months, Yaoyao had often come looking for Lin Beifan, but each time she appeared and disappeared unpredictably. Just like now, she had barged into the imperial palace without anyone announcing her arrival.

“What are you thinking about, smiling so lewdly? Are you thinking about women?” Yaoyao asked with a laugh while munching on a candied hawthorn stick.

Lin Beifan was surprised: “How did you know?”

“You foolish emperor.”

Yaoyao said with a wrinkled nose and a proud expression, “The moment you stick out your butt, I know exactly what kind of shit you’re going to take!”

“Very impressive!”

Lin Beifan fell silent for a moment, then stood up, stuck out his butt, turned his head, and said, “I am preparing to leave the palace! Now guess what kind of shit will I take!”

Yaoyao: “…”

Her face turned red in anger.

Angrily, she said, “Do you want to die? I’m a girl. How can you make such a joke?”

Lin Beifan felt wronged, “You were the one who said you could guess it. I just wanted you to prove it to me!”

“How dare you argue back?” Yaoyao, fuming, pinched him with her little hand.

Lin Beifan: “Ow, ow, ow…”

At that moment, Heshen came over with a worried and troubled expression.
