The protagonist is smart, develops cautiously, and explores a fresh setting. The whole story is about getting things done.
Any War Stories? Looking for Something Detailed
The battles shouldn't be glossed over. The author should analyze them in detail, whether they're offensive or defensive, and describe how different troop types work together. Those things are secondary, though. Most importantly, the story should showcase the protagonist's or enemy's command skills, rather than having them win through brute force.

It doesn’t have to be completely historically accurate, but at least don’t make it ridiculous. I want power struggles and political maneuvering that make sense. People shouldn’t just get confused all the time and believe the protagonist at first sight.

It's okay, but overall there are still many shortcomings. The article was written too hastily, so it failed to satisfy myself and the readers in many aspects. Overall, the plot is not well controlled, and a deeper understanding of historical facts is actually needed. But come on, young man, I don't know how bumpy the road ahead will be, but I just have to move forward! Forget it, let's give it five stars, after all, it's my own [laughing and crying]
I really like naval battle games. Although pure naval battles are boring, games that include building scientific research and diplomatic relations, such as Ultimate Admiral Dreadnought, are fun. This novel is very similar to the Qing Dynasty that I have been playing in the game, and I feel very immersed in it. Of course, there are many shortcomings. Why do the superiors allow the protagonist to do private work and do business? Foreign machines buy whatever they want, just with the money they earn from businessmen. The protagonist knows everything and participates in everything. The leader has no questions or opinions. He is just like a yes man. Won't others attack him?
It is suggested that the author can combine all domestic industrial strengths. For example, in 1893, the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau was able to mass-produce smokeless gunpowder, and had already built 120mm, 150mm, and 310mm rapid-fire cannons (relevant information can be viewed online). Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau and Mawei Shipyard could be used as technology entrances to specifically absorb foreign technology. European countries could send some people to Italy to purchase technology. Mawei shipbuilding and power systems (we can find an opportunity to cancel Mawei Shipyard's "specialized in building official ships" system and establish the system of Jiangnan Shipyard in 1896). Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau is responsible for artillery and gunpowder.
It's quite interesting. The new theme makes up for the regrets of the Sino-Japanese War, allowing us to see a different Sino-Japanese War, the longing for the nation, and the reflection on suffering.
In the early days, Sun was not so influential. As a result, he rose to a high position just after overthrowing the Qing Dynasty. It was unrealistic, had no merit, and had no reputation. The people inside Beiyang were not convinced. What's more, other governors and protagonists made so many contributions, but their merits were not as good as Sun's status. Sun only began to have a certain influence in 1905.
A novel angle pays homage to that turbulent and tragic history.
The author is very good, and I think this type of subject matter is also very good. If you like it, you can come and take a look, read it, or discuss it together. It is not a bad thing to be wise after the fact [Thinking][Thinking]
The details of the naval novel are in place, and there is no invincibility. It is normal for mistakes to appear occasionally, which is rare.
It's okay, but the technology tree is climbing too fast. Things like shipbuilding require more industrial foundation than cars. Tens of thousands of tons of water presses and other large industrial equipment, as well as skilled technical workers, can't be built without a long period of development.
Very good naval article, close to reality.
