Looking for Anti-Japanese War Novels, but Nothing with an Over-the-Top Cheat
The golden fingers in Tomato's war of resistance novels are way too over-the-top. They all just hand out equipment. Why not give them nukes while they're at it? I'd love to see golden fingers that offer things like intelligence or equipment blueprints instead.

It's very well written, very close to the style of the original work, and is the best of all the sequels.
Having read up to chapter 120, I almost thought this was a continuation written by Xianxian herself. The current challenge lies with the three main female characters: Su Qing, Zhou Wanping, and Xiao Hongying. Currently, Su Qing has fallen for Hu Yi, but what about the other two? They can only kill off two of them, since this is a Communist army unit. Otherwise, they'll have to kill off Hu Yi in the end, otherwise they won't be able to explain the romantic storylines.
In memory of Xiaozhi Xianxian!
It's really well-written, and more importantly, it's cathartic. It's definitely worth reading! More importantly, it has that flavor.
Good, give it a shout-out! It has the feel of a little knowledgeable writer. Keep it up, author!
Well written, it has a leisurely, intellectual feel to it.
I thought it was Xiao Xianzhi making a comeback, 👍👍👍
Continuing with the best work, the author could now conceive a standalone anti-Japanese war story. Thumbs up and support! Looking forward to continued progress and fully showcasing their writing talent.
It's really well written; fans of deserters should definitely check it out.
Great, it makes up for the disappointment of Xianxian's disappearance 👍👍
