You should know that since last year, almost all major battles have been led by Lin Beifan.
Every battle led by Lin Beifan has been overwhelmingly successful, with a hundred victories in a hundred battles. In simple terms, when Lin Beifan goes to war, he never loses.
Therefore, in the future, whenever Lin Beifan leads the troops into battle, everyone is full of confidence and the unwavering belief in victory. The combat effectiveness of the entire army is enhanced by more than 50%. It has beco a habit to let Lin Beifan lead the troops, a trust between the commander and the troops.
It can also be called the consolidation of military morale. But now, Lin Beifan says he wont lead the troops anymore and hands over the command to them. This
For a mont, everyone was a little panicked.
Supre Commander, this is absolutely not possible!
We dont have confidence if you dont lead the troops into battle!
After all, this ti were going to war against Great Yan!
Lin Beifan extended his hand to reassure them and smiled, saying, I understand what you all an! However, when our army heads south, its also the ti of my marriage with Her Majesty!
Everyone was stunned and quickly realized.
They were leading the army south next spring. In less than two months, it would be the ti for His Majesty and the Supre Commanders wedding.
This is a major event of national attention, more important than going to war, and it cannot be taken lightly.
As the groom and the Supre Commander, he certainly couldnt be absent. Otherwise, if he couldnt return in ti, it would delay Her Majestys wedding. What should they do then?
Supre Commander is absolutely right; the wedding is crucial!
We can postpone the battle, but the wedding must not be delayed!
Supre Commander, you can rest assured and prepare for the wedding. Leave the war against Yan to us!
Everyone cald down.
Thank you, generals, for understanding! Lin Beifan thanked them with a smile.
In fact, there was another reason: he had now beco a Supre Grandmaster, one of the three most powerful individuals in the world. With just one move, he had the power to destroy the heavens and the earth. One person could contend against a nation, and no matter how many armies ca, it wouldnt be enough to kill him.
Therefore, he was not very interested in leading troops into battle anymore; it felt like bullying people. So, he let others do the job.
We still have more than a month to prepare now! Generals, you are all excellent generals with combat skills. Im sure you will return victorious!
Then, Lin Beifan organized the troops and made strategic arrangents, appointing the main generals and vice-generals and assigning tasks.
Through a sand table simulation, everyone was told how to conduct this battle. After receiving guidance from Lin Beifan, everyone was filled with confidence.
In this way, over half a month passed, and the New Year arrived.
This year had been a good one; the entire Great Wu had experienced minimal disasters. The people had enough to eat and wear, lived in peace, and even witnessed a bountiful harvest. Everyones lives had improved.
Therefore, everyone welcod the New Year with great joy, hoping that the coming year would be just as good.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the court held its annual grand court assembly. On this day, all the officials gathered in the court, holding New Year gifts to present to the Empress. Among the officials, Lin Beifan was the only one empty-handed.
The Empress didnt show any hint of bla; she smiled and said, My dear minister, I rember clearly that when you attended the grand court assembly for the first ti, you presented the unification of our kingdom, resulting in a year of unification and power that shook the world.
The second ti you attended the grand court assembly, you presented an era of peace and prosperity, which indeed brought peace to our land, with the people having enough to eat and a peaceful life.
So, what do you plan to present at this third grand assembly? Youre not really coming empty-handed, are you?
Everyone looked at Lin Beifan, waiting to see how he would justify himself. Lin Beifan spread his hands and said with a smile, Your Majesty, on such a joyous day, how could your humble servant possibly co empty-handed?
Oh? The Empress beca even more curious. Then, what gift have you brought for ?
Lin Beifan appeared a bit hesitant and said, Your servant offers himself to Your Majesty!
Everyone was stunned, and then they burst into laughter. After all, in less than two months, Lin Beifan would marry the Empress. Wasnt offering himself to Her Majesty the sa thing?
It was a clever play on words with profound aning.
A hint of blush crossed the Empresss face. She glared at Lin Beifan without a hint of anger and said, You, my dear minister, dare to make such a joke with ! However, I accept this gift, and I like it very much. I will cherish it for a lifeti!
Lin Beifans mood instantly lifted. The Empress had said such affectionate words in front of the entire court, making him exceptionally happy.
Next, the Empress hosted a banquet for the officials. The al was exceptionally sumptuous, and the officials enjoyed it trendously.
As fireworks lit up the sky, the Empress couldnt help but look back at the past year, feeling that she had achieved a lot.
They had planted peaceful rice, doubling the national food production. They had expanded their territory, bringing the White Elephant Country and the eastern lands of Great Xia into Great Wus territory.
With neighboring countries in chaos, Great Wu remained stable as a rock, and the people enjoyed prosperity. They surpassed other nations in wealth, becoming the strongest nation in the world and ushering in a revival for Great Wu.
Most importantly, she had found her beloved partner for life. The Empress turned her head and looked at Lin Beifan, who was enjoying his food, with a gentle smile on her face.
Lin Beifan felt a bit embarrassed under the Empresss gaze and asked curiously, Your Majesty, why are you looking at like that? Is there sothing on my face?
The Empress shook her head and continued to gaze, saying, Nothing, I just wanted to look at you. Its so good to have you here.
Lin Beifan felt like he was being teased. Whats gotten into the Empress today? She keeps flirting like this. Isnt that usually sothing n should do?
But Lin Beifan felt that he couldnt show weakness, so he set down his wine glass and said seriously, Your Majesty, I also have sothing to say to you.
What is it? Please, go ahead, the Empress asked.
Your Majesty, having you around makes feel really good.
The Empress playfully smiled, How good?
I want to be with you for a lifeti.
That sounds about right! The Empress happily laughed, and their hands secretly held each other under the table.
After the grand court assembly, Lin Beifan went back to the Lin residence to wish everyone a happy New Year. He gave out red envelopes and exchanged good wishes. Even though they did this every year, everyone still enjoyed it.
In the following days, Lin Beifan received waves of officials who ca to pay their New Years respects. The threshold of the Lin residence was nearly worn out.
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the Empress also visited and paid her New Years respects to the Lin family. They enjoyed a al of tangyuan (sweet rice dumplings).
This New Year was peaceful, simple, and happy.
After the New Year, the court resud its operations. People began spring farming, planting the peaceful rice provided by the court, hoping for a good harvest this year.
At the sa ti, the well-prepared army for the campaign against Yan began its southward march. Even though Lin Beifan wasnt leading the troops, everyone was full of confidence and unity.
