"...My eldest son, Crown Prince Zhao, is gifted with intelligence, a benevolent and filial nature, and possesses both civil and military skills... He is truly destined by heaven..."

"Now, in response to Heaven's mandate, I pass the throne to Crown Prince Zhao... to restore the rule of ten thousand years and to inspire the hearts of the people."

In the spring of the 39th year of Emperor Qin Shihuang's reign.

Prince Zhao was immediately enthroned and succeeded Datong, ascending the throne as Emperor Zhao of Qin, and the country's name was known in history as "the first year of Zhaowu".

After the First Emperor abdicated, he was honored as the Supreme Emperor, and Empress Chu was honored as the Supreme Empress.

From then on, the magnificent and glorious Zhaowu era officially began.

Ying Zhao wore a solemn black crown and a twelve-tasseled crown on his head, and took over the imperial seal and the sword of the emperor from his father, which symbolized the supreme imperial power.

He looked at his father whom he had admired since childhood, his sharp eyes burning with ambition, and his youthful and energetic voice was full of passion.

"Father, I will inherit your great ambitions and make every territory in the world part of the Great Qin Empire!"

"One day, the great reputation of our Great Qin Empire will spread far and wide. Then, all nations will come to pay tribute, and our prosperity will last forever!"

Ying Zheng looked at his ambitious son, his heart filled with pride and pride, and a look of relief appeared on his dignified face.

"Father believes in you."

Chu Yue gazed at the extremely similar father and son, as if she saw the inheritance of a generation of imperial destiny, the change of a generation of dynasties, and the beginning of another glorious and great era.

She couldn't help but be in a trance for a few moments, but when she met her son's admiring eyes, her mind returned to reality.

She raised a faint smile, her beautiful eyes, dyed by the years, were calm and gentle, and her soft voice was like a spring breeze blowing across the heart, giving people the power of calmness and peace of mind.

"The Queen Mother and the Emperor will always be your supporters."

Ying Zhao looked at his parents deeply, and endless courage and confidence seemed to surge in his chest.

He turned his gaze to the subjects below the platform, holding the emperor's sword in one hand and the imperial seal in the other. His voice was solemn and majestic, and the majesty of the emperor was unmistakable.

"I have received the mandate from Heaven, the love of my father, and the hearts of all the people..."

"In the future, I will improve national governance at home and expand the territory abroad, leading the Great Qin Empire to conquer the world and unify it for eternity!"

The subjects below all bowed to their new monarch.

They shouted in unison with enthusiasm and respect.

"Long live His Majesty! May the Great Qin prosper forever!"

"Long live His Majesty! May the Great Qin prosper forever!"

“…”

The passage of time and the change of dynasties are in accordance with the will of heaven.

An old era has come to an end.

A new era is coming.

Emperor Zhao of Qin lived up to the ambitions he made to his father, his mother, his subjects, the people, and himself when he ascended the throne.

Since he ascended the throne, he has used thundering means to suppress the court and subdue the court officials. From then on, he began his journey as an emperor who monopolized power and made arbitrary decisions.

He was undoubtedly a perfect king.

He possesses both the virtue of a benevolent monarch who cares about the world and the ambition to pioneer with decisiveness and determination.

After Emperor Zhao of Qin came to power, he vigorously developed all fields and industries in the empire.

Politically, he improved the imperial examination system, selected talents, promoted capable officials, and severely punished corrupt officials, making the Qin Dynasty peaceful and prosperous.

In education, he popularized nine-year compulsory education, improved the quality of the people, and consolidated the talent base of the Qin Dynasty, enabling countless children to go to school and have the opportunity to change their destiny;

In the military, he reformed the military merit system, established military academies, improved the treatment of soldiers, clarified the promotion channels, and made the empire's military power increasingly stronger;

In science and technology, it promoted the Industrial Revolution, encouraged invention and creation, and ushered in the era of "technological explosion", which greatly improved social productivity and brought about rapid changes in life;

In terms of economy, the development of the "Silk Road on Land and Sea" and the encouragement of private commercial trade made the Qin economy unprecedentedly prosperous and the people's lives better and better.

......

In addition to these, Emperor Zhao of Qin also attached great importance to scientific research.

Not only does it add science subjects to schools and cultivate scientific talents.

It also invests a large amount of research funds every year in the Chiyou Military Research Base, Fuxi Tiangong Science and Technology Research Institute, and Shennong Life Science Research Institute.

Thanks to the unremitting efforts of scientific researchers, one scientific research result after another that shocked the world has come out, greatly promoting the progress of society and the times.

The great achievements that Emperor Zhao of Qin made in domestic affairs are enough to be recorded in history and passed down through the ages.

However, his achievements in foreign affairs were even more unprecedented and unparalleled.

Like his father, Qin Shi Huang, he was an emperor who was unprecedented and unparalleled.

In order to fulfill his ambition, he founded four expeditionary forces for the Qin Empire to fight abroad.

They are the Northern Expedition Army, the Western Expedition Army, the Eastern Expedition Army, and the Southern Expedition Army.

The first two were mainly armies, with the goal of unifying Asia and conquering Europe and Africa;

The latter two are mainly naval forces, whose goal is to explore and annex North America, South America, and Oceania.

Emperor Zhao of Qin mobilized the entire country to equip these four armies with the most sophisticated weapons and equipment and the most sufficient logistical supplies.

And they lived up to expectations.

As for overseas territories, they expanded their territory and conquered various countries with an unstoppable and invincible momentum.

In this era where cold weapons dominate, the Qin Empire, which pioneered the industrial revolution, has become a powerful country standing at the top of the world.

Faced with many continents still in primitive society, the Qin cavalry easily captured the territory.

Of course, the journey to the world of expedition is not always smooth sailing.

Countries like the Roman Republic, the Seleucid Empire, and the Kingdom of Macedonia all had the strength of world powers and were comparable to the newly unified Qin Empire.

But after the Industrial Revolution, the Qin Dynasty possessed thermal weapons with terrifying lethality, which was a complete dimensionality reduction attack when fighting against backward cold weapons.

Even if they fought stubbornly, they were still defeated like the Maurya Empire in the end and became one of the autonomous regions of the Qin Empire.

Year after year.

The expeditionary force's victory reports came one after another.

The people of Daqin saw the good news in the newspapers, ran around to tell each other, cheered and encouraged, and every Daqin citizen felt honored and proud of it.

A strong country means a strong people.

The country's prestige spread far and wide, and the pride of the Chinese people straightened up, and they possessed a strong sense of honor and pride as citizens of the great Celestial Empire.

The pace of the imperial expedition has not stopped.

The black Xuanniao flag of the Qin army was flying proudly in more and more territories.

In the 33rd year of Zhaowu, the four expeditionary armies returned victoriously, and the great reputation of Emperor Zhaowu of Qin shocked the world.

The Qin Empire completely conquered the world and unified the globe.

All the continents and oceans of the world were included in the territory of the Qin Empire, and all states and countries were established as autonomous prefectures and autonomous regions, and were subject to the rule and jurisdiction of the Qin Empire.

All races and nationalities in the world, regardless of their race or skin color, regardless of their religious beliefs, regardless of their culture or language, all belong to the Qin Empire and are called Qin people.

Since then——

Wherever the bright moon shines, it all belongs to Qin.

The vast and beautiful rivers and mountains are all named China.
