The Emperor's Strategy Novels & Stories

Alexander replied with confusion, “I do not know their reasons, General. However, the big question now is will you follow their war strategy or stick to ... our empire's strategy?” With a fearful expression he added, “Trying to win by wiping out every one of their troops?”

“Rose, it’s not that I want to berate you but you were the one who came up with the idea of finding a mistress for Sean on this island, to help him cement his rule on the island. And you even purposely sought out the orphaned daughter of the former leader of this island. Now that she’s pregnant you want to discard her so ruthlessly? How unfair is it to her?” Hearing Old Master Shaw’s words, Rose felt even more righteous. “Then tell me what I should’ve done, Uncle Shaw?

Since long ago, to protect his empire and reduce the loss of life caused by military conflict, the emperor would even give his

“There is something off with the Eastern Empire. We have lost all our contacts there. Find out what is happening and report to me immediately” Those were his Emperor’s words, and personally Zakai thought it was a bit too much to send the captain of the Royal Guards after something so trivial.

Ryder raised an eyebrow, his interest piqued but his expression unreadable. "You’re not wrong," he said. "The Emperor uses these events to keep the factions in line.

The herb he clutched tightly slipped from his fingers and tumbled to the ground as he grasped onto the emperor's fingers. “You forget who I am,” the emperor growled, eyes glowing with dark shadows. “I am the great emperor of the seven kingdoms who united them with my sweat and blood. I am the sovereign ruler and now I have moved beyond the realm of mere mortals. I am the ultimate one.”

"That implies that you're still planning to make that law happen." I smiled brightly at him. "Your Majesty, you're a bad father but you're a good emperor," I said. Well, I didn't mean that he was good as in kind. What I meant was he was a good leader. Under his reign, the empire had flourished more than ever. "I know that you won't reject a law that will protect the children of the empire." "Fine. But, you really need to be careful," Emperor Frederick reminded me sternly. "I will let you do as you please. But make sure that it won't threaten your brother's position, or else..."

Since ancient times, only the God Emperor could possess the arraying formation map, and the commander of the army under his command could only master the formation map of one of the channels.

Aakash said. It was his suggestion to send them to his village. His uncle was a wrestler, including his cousins. Andrew could never imagine their whereabouts. They would be safe. I didn't want any distractions. "This is the time when no mistake would be accepted," I told them, darting my eyes at them. No emotion was playing on my face. I didn't open up to anyone. This was the first step toward becoming a successful businessman and the emperor. "Our men are keeping close eyes on his every move.
