Synopsis

Ding! Congratulations, Host! You have successfully activated the Super-Rich Warlord System. This System is at your service and will help you become a qualified super-rich warlord as soon as possible.

Without a decent army, how can you call yourself a great warlord?

Without your own arms factory, steel mill, and shipyard, how can you call yourself “rich”?

Without cannons, tanks, and armored vehicles, how can you claim to have a System?

When Chen Jianshen woke up, he found himself in the Great Heng Empire, a nation in the midst of a chaotic era. Armed with an appointment letter from the System, he set off for Rongcheng, a remote and rugged region, with a single company of bodyguards to take up his post.

This was another world whose technology was roughly at the level of World War II. Warlords were entrenched at home, while foreign powers watched hungrily from beyond the borders.

The emperor of the Great Heng Empire had long since lost the ability to control his vast domain.

In this era, whoever had the bigger guns called the shots. Watch as Chen Jianshen, bolstered by the System, begins his own age of conquest in this chaotic world!

Keep it up! Write faster, it's too short and weak! 😏

Keep it up! This novel is pretty good, it's just that you update too infrequently; it's not enough to read.

A good book. One detail handled well is that it doesn't go into the detailed specifications of weapons and equipment like other novels of the same genre. This reduces potential reader complaints and also simplifies the writing process for the author. The only drawback is that the various journalist interviews take up a considerable amount of space.

It's alright; the lack of a female lead for now hasn't affected the overall direction.

The writing is decent; the author's ideas are clear and original, especially considering the other warlords are more cautious and haven't yet allied with other countries. However, I don't understand why there are so few characters. I hope the author can keep it up! I binged it all in one go, and it's been over ten hours.

Keep it up, it's really good. It's the type of show I've always been looking for. Don't worry about the opinions of people who don't understand military matters at all. I don't like those who only care about having fun. This is much more reasonable, author! Keep it up!

It looks okay, but could the author please include a map? It would look much better that way!

It's pretty good, a well-written military war novel, and quite refreshing. Ennnn... That looks good, I'm leaving.

It's quite interestingly written, especially the names of the various powers. However, after reading this novel three times, I still don't understand who one of the nine major powers is. Newton: United States England Reims: France Solon: Germany Tokugawa: Japan Austria: the Austro-Hungarian Empire Lenza: Italy Ivan the Great: Tsarist Russia/Soviet Union Of the nine major powers, only one remains, and it's still unclear which one it is.
