Reincarnated as Cannon Fodder, Forced to Ascend the Throne

Zhou Qixiu transmigrated into a book, where he was a regional prince. But he couldn't be happy, because he and his fiefdom were both cannon fodder.

The imperial court was doing everything it could to strip the regional princes of their power. The neighboring prince was fighting another prince over territory, and the prince next door to them was plotting a rebellion and a coup.

Zhou Qixiu huddled in his tiny, shabby kingdom, trembling along with his people.

To avoid the fate of his family and kingdom being destroyed, Zhou Qixiu had no choice but to lead his people, roll up his sleeves, and get to work.

Stockpile grain, build high walls, and don't claim the throne!

Boost grain production, raise pigs, horses, cows, and sheep, train the militia, and secretly make weapons.

But later, Zhou Qixiu and his people realized: how had everyone disappeared while they were busy fighting?

Well, then? Was it time to proclaim himself king and ascend the throne?

[Reader's Guide]:

1. Fictional setting with lots of original details. Readers who want historical accuracy, please don't read.

2. It's a common, well-worn trope. The author's feelings are fragile, so if it's not for you, please move on without telling me.

3. There will be a female lead.

4. The author's writing skills are limited, and I'm bad at blurbs, so please bear with me.

Theme: People can triumph over fate. Roll up your sleeves and get to work
