Brilliant Historical Fiction, Rated 9 or Higher, Meticulously Researched, with a Down-to-Earth Protagonist
I've read a lot of stories like this, even some highly rated ones, but their protagonists all seem to have an arrogant, godlike perspective. Since they know how things unfold and how they end, they spoil everything for the locals and act smug about it. It's really uncomfortable, and they show no respect for history.
Meticulously Researched Historical Fiction
A twisting, suspenseful plot, a protagonist who's not an idiot, and something I can learn from while reading. Ideally, it should be close to real history.

The author writes quite well; the character truly embodies the demeanor of a refined general. However, Zhao Yun charged into Cao Cao's main force of 700,000 men at Changban Slope, thus gaining worldwide fame. Why doesn't the protagonist also charge in that direction and, incidentally, cut down Cao Cao's banner? His fame would undoubtedly be even greater.
This is probably the best Romance of the Three Kingdoms novel I've ever read. It doesn't vilify Liu Bei, and there's no system-generated army system. It's really good.
I finished reading it in one day. It's a historical novel about time travel to the Three Kingdoms that I could actually read. If you've seen this review, you should check it out. The protagonist is a bit pretentious, but it's not forced, which I like. There aren't too many complicated daily scenes, the pacing is good, and the characters' dialogue, actions, and emotions are well-described.
I really love this book. Every character is well-developed: Liu Bei's benevolence, Cao Cao's appreciation of talent, and Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang's resourcefulness. So far, there are no major flaws. The protagonist is also growing, progressing rapidly under Zhuge Liang's tutelage. It's truly a very well-written book.
The writing is quite good, and the character portrayals are excellent. I hope it doesn't degenerate into a harem novel later on. The daily output is too abundant! Author, please take care of your health. If you have a large backlog of chapters, please keep up the good work!
Okay, very good, exceptionally good, it's just a bit slow. For an author this slow, I'm thinking of sending them a hot pot of stinky tofu, durian, Beijing fermented mung bean juice, and original-flavor beef tripe. 🤔
Currently, it seems like a character who wants to die early and be reborn, so I don't want a female lead either, emotionally or in terms of plot development. As for male readers who want a romantic pairing, I don't care as long as the romance is well-written. Do you really want good romance? I have no hope. Tomato's romance is quite abstract 🤔 The plot is okay, alright, readable.
It's a good watch. The characters from the Shu Kingdom are well-developed so far, while other kingdoms aren't as well-developed. However, I'm finding some characters less appealing (though I didn't like some of them anyway), like Cao Cao. He hasn't shown any signs of being a powerful and ruthless figure yet.
The relationships and personalities between characters are quite rare in Tomato's Three Kingdoms series. The plot transitions are also good, rarely using a year as a second. The fact that the first 400,000 words only cover one year of the Three Kingdoms period is impressive.
Rough yet meticulous, passionate yet strategic, leaving a lasting impression and anticipation.
