The Rise of Liangzhou in the Three Kingdoms

A rare gem of a book, it doesn't flaunt literary talent or showcase martial prowess, nor does it feature inventions or creations out of touch with the times. It avoids childish intrigue and backstabbing where everyone is incredibly foolish except for the protagonist, who is shrewd and infallible, controlling the overall situation.

Well, it's a very good book, and it meets my reading requirements quite well! The reason I like the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is that you can find all sorts of plots in it: young heroes, vigorous old men, incredibly clever strategists, power struggles, capturing generals and flags, the darkness of society, patriotism, and so on. The first part of this book mainly focuses on the hardships of starting a business; it's not a wish-fulfillment novel.

It's pretty good. Everyone has their own taste, and I feel the rating is a bit low. The author truly captures the customs and culture of the Three Kingdoms period, and the character portrayals are very delicate. I don't know what the real people of the Three Kingdoms period were like, but everyone in the book is flesh and blood, and everyone has their own path.

This is an excellent Three Kingdoms novel. I saw some readers comment that they didn't initially focus on recruiting powerful generals, probably because they didn't aspire to be emperor at the beginning. Everyone has something they want to protect, regardless of faction or good/bad. It's a truly wonderful book.

I read it straight to the end of the second chapter; it's a rare gem. Both the writing style and the logic are a game-changer compared to other novels on the Tomato Recommendation List. I've been reading it since elementary school, and now I'm a sophomore in college. This novel ranks in my top three among all the Three Kingdoms novels I've read; its realism is undeniably top-notch.

Overall, the author's writing is smooth, the depiction of the main characters' inner journeys is quite good, and the plot arrangement is reasonable. However, the narrative pace is a bit slow, making it a slow-burn type of story! However, as a time-travel novel, since the protagonist understands the course of history, why can't he plan ahead and deal with various situations in advance?

The first half of this book revolves around the mission of restoring the Han Dynasty. Just as no one's initial dream is to buy a car or a house, Ma Yue's initial goal was not to become emperor. He never actually became emperor until the very end. Only by reading to the very end can one truly understand Ma Yue's changing state of mind, which is also the author's gradual process.

Recommended. It's not like a traditional historical novel; it focuses more on personal growth and interpersonal relationships. It's one of the few historical novels worth reading on Tomato, or perhaps it's because I haven't read many historical novels on Tomato.

A unique Three Kingdoms experience, this is a history of ordinary people with great ambition, a tale of struggle and growth from humble beginnings to the pinnacle of power. Ma Yue is skilled in both literature and martial arts, but his literary talent falls short of Xun Yu's, and his martial prowess surpasses even Lü Bu's.

I thought he would always remain loyal to the Han Dynasty.
