Looking for High-Quality Historical Fiction. No Mindless Power Trips or Brain-Dead Plotting
I want high-quality historical fiction that’s engaging and doesn’t dumb things down or rely on brainless plots. It can be satisfying, but don’t treat readers like idiots. No stories like the one where the protagonist fools Cao Cao’s quartermaster about the provisions from the start, or those where a literati protagonist suddenly has the strength of a tyrant. They’re unoriginal and mindless...
The Chu-Han Contention, the An Lushan Rebellion, and the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms
A lord-simulation game. No transmigration, but it should blend with reality. No Three Kingdoms era either. Spring and Autumn, Warring States, the end of the Qin dynasty, or mid-to-late Tang are all fine
Stories About Transmigrating to the Tang Dynasty Always Make Li Shimin Seem Too Weak
Historically, Li Shimin was a general whose military achievements were so great there was no higher honor left to bestow on him. As a ruler, he had top marks in politics. He did everything from emperor to general and minister, a true all-rounder. I want stories where Li Shimin gets to shine even more.

Tang Dynasty Novels Are So Awful, All the Same Stories About Early Tang and Zhenguan
The only book I can think of is "Tang Plotting the World", which is set in Emperor Gaozong’s era. There isn’t another one after that. After all, if the story goes a little further forward in time, Li Bai, Du Fu, Du Mu, Bai Juyi, and Li Shangyin are all born, and it gets harder to show off with poetry. Even this topic of mine has been derailed.

This is so good! The protagonist, upon hearing from outsiders that his princess is seriously ill, abandons 200,000 soldiers and civilians and rushes back to the capital, resulting in the deaths of all 200,000 soldiers and civilians, and his own imprisonment. I'm writing this for love! I'd call myself the most devoted lover in the Tang Dynasty!
It's so good! The protagonist is so meticulous in his planning and execution, yet he repeatedly forgets his own weakness. Knowing there are treacherous officials plotting against him, he abandons the battlefield with hundreds of thousands of troops and returns to the capital based on unconfirmed news. It's brilliant! He's practically a pure love story about a god of war!
The multi-perspective narrative is brilliant! The same 'Battle XX' is presented through the eyes of characters from different factions, which not only restores the Rashomon effect of history but also allows readers to see the individual fates that are overlooked by the grand narrative. "The handling of the butterfly effect by time travelers is very sophisticated!
This is the first novel I've ever read that reversed the fatal damage the An Lushan Rebellion inflicted on the Tang Dynasty! Although the time traveler has a god-like perspective, every battle and every military achievement is earned through hard work and dedication, unlike those other time travelers who seem to win battles with a mere breath!
I've read many similar light novels, but none of them are as good as this one. It was truthful and objective; they didn't run away at the beginning, but instead focused on accumulating strength in a secluded corner. Instead, they directly confronted An Lushan's army head-on.
It's so good! Seriously! It's amazing! I watched up to chapter 33 before I gave up.
As a web novel, it is quite remarkable in terms of vividness of expression, and the plot is also extremely well-crafted and ingenious! The character portrayals are delicate, vivid, and three-dimensional. I am very grateful to the author for selflessly giving us a work that is well worth reading!
It's so good! The protagonist is so meticulous in setting things up, yet he always forgets his own weakness. Knowing there are treacherous officials plotting against him, he abandons the battlefield with hundreds of thousands of troops and returns to the capital based on unconfirmed news—it's brilliant! He's practically a pure love story about a god of war! It wasted an hour of my time.
This is brilliantly written. Even I, someone who's not interested in the history of the mid-Tang Dynasty, stayed up for two consecutive nights. Especially that Li Longji, and Yang Yuhuan's monologue to him. Li Longji's initial arrogance and incompetence, then hatred, and finally his sudden awakening and appointment as crown prince—all that power struggle boils down to one sentence: "The land is…
It's so beautiful, I can't eat it all by myself 🤮.
