Historical Battle Royale: I Become a Warlord by Picking Up Bargains

[No System] + [Political intrigue] + [Wits and strategy] + [Conquest] + [A feast of a read]

Chu Xiong transmigrates to a world where the eight states of Qin, Han, Sui, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing stand side by side.

The rulers of these states are legendary emperors such as Liu Bang, Li Shimin, and Zhu Yuanzhang.

The eight states vie for supremacy, leaving the people to suffer.

A mere refugee, Chu Xiong resolutely joins the struggle for supremacy so he won't become cannon fodder.

Years later, Chu Xiong looks back on the past. Those supposedly invincible legends have long since become bones in their graves.

As the saying goes, when counting the great figures of history, look to the present day.
