That's right, the native protagonist has to be ruthless enough, unlike those so-called transmigrators who talk about humanity all day long, have such high moral standards, want to conquer the world but refuse to do this or that, and rely on benevolence and righteousness to influence others.
It's alright, the protagonist is ruthless enough, just like in the synopsis. His strength develops rapidly, and it's good to have female leads, preferably multiple female leads, but please, author, don't include any romance! [Please update more frequently!]
It's really good, exceptionally good. The main character is a bit outdated, but in chaotic times, harsh measures are necessary; force should be used when necessary. We've only just begun to build our power; other things besides appeasing the people can wait.
It's good; finally, it's not just about nationalistic sentiments all the time.
You're the second person to give it full marks. Writing in this style is flawless; it's pure realism. What's the point of loving the people in chaotic times? It's all meaningless.
I personally really like this kind of book. I don't know what you guys think, but I think it's incredibly well-written, much better than those books that are all about showing off, face-slapping, and political intrigue. It's just too short. I didn't get paid; the author's writing is truly excellent.
The protagonist is a lively and charismatic man. Cao Cao had to offer him cigarettes and call him "elder brother" when he met him, and Dong Zhuo could only sigh that such a person was like him. "Where are my confidants? Where are my confidants?" The protagonist smiled slightly and said, "Your confidant is me. I'm the one who did it to you."
Circumstances create heroes, and heroes act in accordance with those circumstances.
It has minor flaws, but it's great on Tomato. I'll leave another review after I finish watching it. It feels good so far. Well, I didn't like the later parts too much. It reminded me many times that someone had shown me kindness, and I killed them right there in the street.
Yes, it's quite good. It portrays ruthlessness, cunning, and insidiousness, vividly depicting ingratitude and unscrupulousness. The climb to the top is brutal, but as the saying goes, troubled times breed heroes, and this is how it should be.
