Chapter 10

Chapter 10

Not only was the Mo Kingdom taken aback, but the people of the Xia Kingdom and the neighboring countries were also dumbfounded.

They were fighting so fiercely, and they suddenly withdrew their troops?

They had just conquered some territory, and only a few days later, they gave it back. Isnt that just pointless?

Could it be that he was afraid of the Mo Kingdoms soldiers and didnt dare to continue the fight?

Nonsense! If he was afraid, he wouldnt have sent out their troops in the first place. Does the Emperor of the Xia Kingdom look like someone without a brain to you?

Then what on earth is he thinking?

In the court, the officials brought up this one issue.

Lin Beifan gave a slight smile, waved his hand grandly, and said, Theres no other reason. I just wanted to have a good time and enjoy the pleasure of expanding the territory! Now that Ive had my fun, its natural to withdraw the troops! The Mo Kingdom has strong soldiers and sturdy horses; if we continue fighting, Im certain to suffer losses. Im not that foolish, haha!

The civil and military officials: F*ck!

They had thought of a million possibilities, but they had never imagined this one!

Is this something that can be done so casually?

Just for a good time, you actually provoked a formidable enemy!

Disregarding the entire nation!

Oh, foolish emperor!!!

The news spread rapidly throughout the imperial palace and across the land, leaving everyone dumbfounded.

F*ck! To mobilize an army of 200,000 and invade the territory of the Mo Kingdom just for a thrill?

Is this something a sane person would do?

Of course a sane person wouldnt do it, but were talking about the foolish emperor! Since his ascension to the throne, has he done anything but create a mess?

Thats true! Other foolish emperors at least put on an act, but he doesnt even bother to pretend!

If I were a citizen of the Xia Kingdom, Id be so angry Id want to strangle him. Is this something to be taken lightly?

With such a person in charge, the Xia Kingdom is truly doomed!

.

Lin Beifans remarks also quickly spread to the Mo Kingdom.

Utterly outrageous!!!

Within the imperial palace, the Emperor of the Mo Kingdom slammed his hand on the table, letting out an ear-splitting roar of anger.

It felt like being slapped in the face, only to be told afterward not to mind it, that they were just doing it for a thrill, and that you havent really lost anything, so lets just make up and go back to how things were!

The Mo Kingdom Emperor felt like his heart and lungs were about to explode!

He had never suffered such humiliation and insult in his life!

He was practically ready to kill!!!

Your Majesty, what do we do now? Do we fight or not?

The Mo Kingdom Emperor said furiously, How can we not fight? The whole world is laughing at us right now, do you think we can just let it go? Can you swallow this insult?

The old ministers were deeply worried: But Your Majesty, we have already lost 200,000 troops, our military strength has greatly diminished, its not what it used to be! If we insist on continuing the fight, the losses will be incalculable

The Emperor of Mo Kingdom took a deep breath, trying to quell the fury in his heart, and said, I am well aware of the consequences of starting a war, but this battle must be fought! Without it, the backbone of our Mo Kingdom will be bent, and we will never be able to hold our heads high again!

Therefore, this battle must be waged, and it must be waged fiercely. We must reclaim everything we have lost! If we can conquer a good portion of Xia Kingdoms territory, it will be enough to compensate for our losses!

I refuse to believe that a nation ruled by a foolish emperor can withstand the might of my iron-cavalry army!

Your Majesty speaks the utmost truth! the officials bowed in agreement.

This is a war of survival for our nation; we can make additional preparations!

With a stern expression, the Emperor of Mo Kingdom declared, We currently have an army of 400,000. We will deploy 200,000 as the main force, and we will also conscript another 200,000 from the civilians to form an army of 400,000 to campaign against Xia Kingdom! We must also fully prepare provisions, weapons, and the like. This battle can only end in victory; failure is not an option!

Yes, Your Majesty! the officials responded in unison.

Thus, the Mo Kingdom began to operate like a massive machine, whirring into high gear.

In matters of war, the mobilization of supplies and personnel was so extensive that it could not be kept secret, and the news quickly spread throughout the land.

The Mo Kingdom is tough, they should hit the Xia Kingdom hard, I support you!

Right! I cant stand that little Emperor either, hes been on the throne for a few days and hasnt done a single good deed. Hes asking for it!

Haha! You foolish emperor, your day has come! freeweb(n)ovel.com

He shouldnt be called the foolish emperor anymore, he should be prepared to be called the monarch of a fallen nation!

Yes! He should be called the monarch of a fallen nation!

The ones I feel most sorry for are the people of Xia Kingdom. What sins have they committed to end up with such a ruler?

Its alright now, a change of dynasty is coming. Ive been looking forward to this day!

Other countries are watching the drama unfold with interest, but inside Xia Kingdom, chaos reigns.

The wealthier citizens and merchants have already packed their belongings, ready to flee elsewhere to make a living. Even the poor citizens are preparing to escape to the remote mountains and forests to secure a future for themselves.

In the face of this, Lin Beifan remains remarkably calm.

Due to the frequent changes in dynasties, the common people of this era lacked any sense of loyalty.

They would flock to wherever conditions were better.

All the hustle and bustle in the world is for profit, and all the prosperity in the world comes from profit! Go ahead and flee, but once the great war is over and my resources are unearthed, you will surely scramble back with all your might!

Just then, an official rushed in to report.

Your Majesty, war is approaching, and the prices of civilian supplies such as grain, salt, and sugar have more than doubled, severely affecting the livelihood of the people. Please, Your Majesty, look into this matter!

Lin Beifan was furious: How can this be?
