Building an Empire from the Border Army

[Ruthless decisiveness] [Borderland conquest] [Iron-blooded political intrigue] [Special forces soldier transmigrates] [Multiple heroines] [Fictional era of chaos]

Transmigrating to the northern frontier of the Great Yong dynasty is no sweet dream of waking up with the world at your command. It's a desperate struggle for survival with your head on the line.

Technologies that could enrich the country and strengthen its military, such as honeycomb coal, the Mo Dao, and high-grade forged steel, promise both unimaginable wealth and a swift death in this lawless, crumbling age.

In a world where only steel blades speak, if you want to survive, you must either be a dog on its knees, wagging its tail, or a wolf with a bloodied blade!

Xiao Ce opens his eyes amid a heap of corpses. Before he can catch his breath, he finds himself facing the frontier army's most outrageous custom: “assigning wives to the troops.”

The camp is full of rowdy soldiers fighting over strong women who can work. Only he walks over to the corner, where the frailest and most beautiful daughter of a disgraced minister sits, and lifts her chin. “Can you walk? Come with me.”

Two hundred and ten years after its founding, the Great Yong is already strong on the outside and weak within. To the north, the Canglang cavalry raid south every year for plunder. At home, powerful clans and aristocrats bleed the frontier troops dry and prey on the people.

When a soul with top-tier special operations experience awakens in this chaotic world, everything will change.

Xiao Ce runs his hand over the cold hilt of his blade and smiles darkly at the high-and-mighty nobles.

“This world is rotten to the core. Since you hold positions of power but refuse to do your jobs, I'll take your wealth, your territory, and your empire for myself!”
