The Ming, Song, and Tang Dynasties
Are there really no stories about the Liao, Jin, Yuan-Mongol, Dali, and Tubo? Is it because there aren't enough sources or historical records? Did we all have different textbooks in our nine years of compulsory education? Do I have to look up local gazetteers?

The subject matter is good, breaking away from the usual late Ming Dynasty tropes of wits and courage among corrupt officials. In the 276 years of the Ming Dynasty, the promise of preferential treatment for scholar-officials and co-governance had spoiled 90% of the scholars to an extreme degree. Instead of wasting their energy on outwitting a group of people without a nation or peoples, they might as well use the rebel leader Li Zicheng to achieve a radical transformation.
It's very well done. Apart from the fictional history required for the plot, everything is based on real-world conditions. Any inventions were researched, and the author is quite meticulous. Modern weapons don't just appear out of nowhere, and everything created has a certain scientific basis and involves some relevant knowledge. But after all, it's a novel, so don't take it too seriously. Just enjoy it.
The writing is good, and the subject matter is quite novel. It's a good time to read it during the initial stages of its release. 😁
This book is great, why is nobody reading it?
Overall, the novel is alright. The technological development is too rapid; given the level of technology at the time, even with a system for exchanging items, it would be difficult to replicate. Everything else is fine. The last chapter reads like a report. Is the author a civil servant? The writing is so smooth.
The time-travel theme is quite novel for a novel, and I wish the author success in their endeavors.
I found it quite enjoyable, and the writing style suited my taste. Everyone has their own writing style, so even if you don't like this style, please don't discourage people.
It's really interesting. It's a historical novel. Usually, I get tired of historical novels like this, especially those with cannons and stories about getting rich. But this one has a really interesting writing style, so I'll probably keep reading! (* ̄M ̄)
Five stars! For serious reading, go read the Records of the Grand Historian; that's not silly at all, it's purely about events! This story doesn't have any major plot holes, and it's quite enjoyable to read! Yeah, it's quite enjoyable, a bit like "Those Things About the Ming Dynasty"! I really like this silly guy (ノ"◑ڡ◑)ノ"(。•́•̀。) Give me a smile~ Update speed needs to be increased, don't write too slowly and then forget what you wanted to write.
Having read many novels about time travel to the Ming or Song dynasties to save a nation from peril, I've noticed that the author seems to lack extensive research into Ming history, with few appearances of important historical figures and little exploration of the background and reasons behind the actions of characters like Zuo Liangyu.
