Rising to Power in Troubled Times

Historical Fiction! The Characters Must Have Brains!!

Are there stories where a modern person transmigrates back to ancient times and uses their profession to make a difference? Like a doctor who transmigrates to the past and advances medicine within the limits of the era, or a modern special forces expert who transmigrates to ancient times and builds an army using modern ideas. Or just invent penicillin or something. From the start, they pull out an AK-47.

The Pinnacle of Historical Fiction

Looking for books similar to "Tang Dynasty: Defying the Imperial Decree Is the Only Way to Get Stronger". This book makes me cry every time I read it. I've read it five or six times, and I still cry. I just can't believe anything else is better. It's the strongest historical novel in my book! An 8.9 rating is way too low. I'd give it a 9.

Any Traditional Stories About a Protagonist Leading a Rebellion to Conquer the World?

My favorite thing about novels where the protagonist becomes emperor is the emperor wielding absolute power: all under heaven belongs to the emperor, and everyone within its borders is his subject. I want a novel set in a traditional feudal dynasty. I really hate stories where the emperor also tries to introduce democracy or constitutional monarchy. Recommendations, please!
