Chapter 24

Foolish emperor, dont you dare feel smug!

The Emperor of the Mo Kingdom retorted sarcastically: The reason for my defeat is merely bad luck, having been beaten by fate, not by you! Give me another chance, and I will surely lead my army southward, flatten the Xia Kingdom, and take your head!

Even if defeated, one must not lose their spirit!

Lin Beifan let out a cold laugh, Long Paopao, stop with the empty talk! Youre now short on troops and have lost your territories. Whether you can even preserve the Mo Kingdom is in question!

The Emperor of Mo Kingdoms mood grew heavy.

Lin Beifan was right. He had lost 600,000 troops, and now only 200,000 remained to defend the Capital City, even less than Lin Beifan.

This was a huge piece of fat, indeed. Even if the Xia Kingdom didnt attack, neighboring kingdoms would covet it.

With only 200,000 troops, defending a nation was too difficult!

He couldnt understand how the once favorable situation had turned out this way.

He hadnt done anything to outrage both gods and men!

Ever since his ascension to the throne, he had worked tirelessly to maintain his ancestors legacy. Although he might not be considered a wise ruler, he was certainly not a mediocre one, and he was much better than that foolish emperor!

But why did the heavens favor that foolish emperor and not him?Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

The Mo Kingdom Emperor stubbornly said, Our Mo Kingdom is large and our army strong; we will surely hold our ground. Theres no need for your concern! If you dont believe it, just try attacking and see if I can defend it or not.

Lin Beifan snorted, I dont want to attack at all!

With a wave of his hand, he commanded, Withdraw the troops. Were returning to the capital!

Everyone was stunned. Your Majesty, are we really going back and not fighting anymore?

Lin Beifan nodded and smiled, Of course! Although the Mo Kingdom has been greatly defeated, they are firmly defending the Capital City. Their military strength is on par with ours, and they have the advantage of defending the city. It would be too difficult to defeat them! Continuing the fight would inevitably lead to heavy losses, which I do not wish to see.

The Mo Kingdom Emperor was utterly defeated by Lin Beifan, who led a massive army against him, forcing him to flee in a disheveled and disgraceful retreat back to the Capital City.

Due to the heavy loss of troops and generals and being unable to resist, the entire territory of the Mo Kingdom fell, leaving only the Mo Kingdoms Capital City standing.

However, the Xia Kingdoms army withdrew after reaching the Mo Kingdoms Capital City.

They didnt even keep the conquered territories, returning them all.

In this battle, the greatest beneficiary was undoubtedly the foolish emperor Lin Beifan. Not only did he defend his own land, but he also invaded the Mo Kingdoms territory for the second time. His might greatly increased, and he also plundered a wealth of valuable goods.

The Mo Kingdom Emperor suffered a huge loss, losing 600,000 soldiers in less than a month, and the nations power was greatly diminished!

Moreover, having lost territory twice in a row and being pursued all the way to the Capital City, with all other places falling, he lost both face and substance.

The name Long Paopao became a laughingstock throughout the land, spreading far and wide.

On the way back, Lin Beifan was cuddling with his consort, enjoying her tenderness, while in his mind he unfolded the Empire Sandbox.
