Chapter 253.1
The Great Hong Dynasty continued its secret search for Senior Dugu.
However, it was destined to be fruitless.
The rivers and lakes became lively due to the giant palm imprint on Gusong Mountain, and Great Xias actions were somewhat ignored.
Great Xia continued its conquests and finally subdued the surrounding four nations before the arrival of winter.
Lin Beifan opened the Empire Sandbox to take a look.
Empire Sandbox (Super Level)
Territorial Area: 13.7 million square li (Arable land 8.2 million square li)
Domestic Resources: 2.36 billion taels (8 gold mines, 15 silver mines, 19 copper mines, 25 iron mines)
Population: 130 million (Wealthy people 1%, Common people 42%, Poor people 57%)
Military Strength: 5.88 million (3 Grandmasters, 66 Innates, 28,800 martial artists)Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)
Comprehensive National Power: 20,200 (Empire level)
Territorial Area increased by 2.5 million square li!
Domestic Resources increased by nearly 400 million taels!
Population increased by nearly 30 million!
There has been some attrition in Military Strength, but it will soon be replenished!
Comprehensive National Power has finally achieved the long-awaited breakthrough of 20,000!
Such national power, when looking across other Empires, is also considered above average!
Once he digests these newly conquered territories, he will be firmly established at this level!
This will probably take about half a year!
Strive for next year to stand shoulder to shoulder with the four top-tier Empires! Lin Beifan envisioned.
Ding! As the players national power has grown, so has your strength accordingly. You are rewarded with the Heavenly Silkworm Divine Technique!
The Heavenly Silkworm Divine Technique is also a very peculiar divine skill in the rivers and lakes. Once mastered, it can bring people back to life after death! Moreover, each time one is killed, their power will double! It can bring people back to life a total of 9 times, and the power will increase 512 times
Lin Beifan quickly learned this technique and rapidly mastered it.
This technique didnt increase his strength by much.
However, it gave him the ability to resurrect.
And each time he resurrected, his power would double once, both bizarre and terrifying!
Your servant is here! Cao Cao stepped forward.
Our military forces have suffered some losses during this southern campaign. Continue to recruit troops to fill the gaps! Lin Beifan instructed.
Yes, Your Majesty! Cao Cao accepted the order.
Lin Beifan then issued orders methodically, strengthening the construction in the southern regions to ensure the people there could live and work in peace and happiness.
After the morning court session, Lin Beifan secretly met with the elders of the Beggar Sect.
Your Majesty, what are your commands? asked the Beggar Sect elder respectfully.
Lin Beifan got straight to the point: As you know, Great Xia has crossed the Hengduan Mountain Range and expanded into the south by 5 million square li, with a population increase of nearly 60 million! However, going further south wont be as easy, with the three great dynasties off Great Hong, Great Yan, and Great Liang blocking our path!
Winter is coming, and its not suitable for warfare! Therefore, the task I give you is to send Beggar Sect disciples to infiltrate these three great dynasties. Covertly spread positive propaganda about Great Xia among the people and establish some strongholds, ready to support us from within when the time comes!
With this groundwork, we will surely achieve twice the results with half the effort when Great Xias forces continue the southern campaign!
Yes, Your Majesty! The Beggar Sect elders accepted the order.
After they left, Lin Beifan opened the window, letting the cool breeze and some drifting snowflakes come in.
The weather is getting colder, and the winds are starting to rise! This winter in the south might be quite cold!
His consciousness was connected to the Empire Sandbox in his mind, directing the cold air from within Great Xias territory to the three great dynasties in the south.
At the same time, he sent a multitude of cockroaches and rats their way, letting them spend the winter there, bringing joy to every household.
After completing all this, Lin Beifans consciousness moved to the White Tiger Mountain Range.
At that moment, Mo Yuyan was practicing her swordsmanship amidst the snowy landscape.
After two months of rigorous training, her strength had reached the peak of Imperial Qi.
Wielding a divine sword and having mastered the divine skills taught by Lin Beifan, she could at least fight a Grandmaster for a dozen rounds.
Her strength was now quite impressive.
It should be noted that a typical peak Imperial Qi expert wouldnt last a single move against a Grandmaster.
Mo Yuyans current strength could be considered the best below the level of a Grandmaster.
Lin Beifan estimated that in less than three years, she would be able to reach the realm of a Grandmaster.
With that, Great Xia would gain another Grandmaster.
