From Lowly Border Soldier to the Martial Ancestor of the Han Empire

[Transmigration] [Alternate History] [Wild Imagination] [Passionate] [One Female Lead Who Is No Damsel] [No Harem] [Political Intrigue]

After transmigrating into a conscript on the border, I was surrounded by Hu cavalry from the start and seemed doomed. Wait, the ancestral jade pendant actually contains an acre of spirit farmland?

Farming speeds things up, and spring water heals wounds. With a thousand catties of corn per acre, I can finally say goodbye to hunger. The memories of battle spirits let me comprehend martial arts by slaying enemy generals, so I'm no longer a weakling.

But life on the frontier is never easy. Our provisions are stolen, our weapons and armor are in short supply, our superiors push us aside, and the Hu cavalry raid south every year. Luckily, I have a modern mind! Granting farmland for military merit sends morale soaring. Training troops in martial arts forges an iron army. Fortifying defenses and clearing the land leaves the Hu cavalry howling for mercy.

I start with a ramshackle fortress built from white stones, then reclaim the northern frontier, and finally vie for supremacy over the Central Plains.

While others are still fighting over territory, I've already made sure the people have enough to eat. While the warlords are still tearing each other apart, my iron cavalry has already swept across the grasslands.

This isn't a story of political intrigue. It's the tale of an ordinary person building an empire with provisions and sound institutions.

Farming, raising troops, fighting wars, becoming emperor: packed with thrills, it's impossible to put down!

In a word: others vie for the realm with popular support. I do it with full granaries.
