Guan Guan comes to recommend books. Guan Guan also likes historical books. The first one briefly introduces the twenty-four histories of China. Many people only know historical records. [Note] The second and third books should be known to everyone and can be used in writing. [Laughs] The fourth book is addictive as soon as I read it. Really, it will be addictive [Exploration] (Let me tell you a little secret secretly. You can go to the author's bookshelf to look for history books. I got them all from the author)

Both of these books are historical overviews. The first book is an inventory of various top 10 figures. It is large and comprehensive. You can choose the unit you like to read. The second book is an inventory of some unofficial history. What this refers to is unofficial history compilation and folk gossip notes, which are used to compare these records that are different from official history, similar to conspiracy theories.

56 Chixiao: Dynasty Cycle Law Really a DogHistorical190k WordsOngoing 141Reads5.8Score—Shelves
Reader note
Both books are very thick, logical, and highly intelligent. The author adheres to the people's view of history, and the first book attempts to deconstruct the cyclical law of dynasties through fragments of heroic epics. The second book explains the importance of power checks and balances, free market economy, and the people's view of history in the author's eyes (not naturally great and upright, or even ignorant most of the time, but it does determine the direction of history). The first book is a new book, with hearty fighting scenes, punches to the flesh, and swords to the flesh. The second volume, starting from the third volume, has a lot of descriptions of large army battles, which is very shocking. The two books have a relatively deep connection with all aspects of the power, politics, economy, resources, and systems behind the war. They are not mindless discussions.

Reader note
The chessboard is laid on the bones, and the victory or defeat is hidden in the smoke. "Desire to the Ninth Level of the Clouds" describes the chess game between people in troubled times. This is not a heroic epic of one person, but a giant conspiracy network covering the four kingdoms - Yanhuang, Yong, Xuanshuang, and Yundian. The undercurrents above the court are surging, and the monarchs and ministers are frightened at every step. Changsun Jing's sentence "I want to reach the ninth level of the sky" describes the ambitions and dilemmas of the world's heroes; Qi Ming's transformation from a down-and-out young man to an overlord did not rely on swords, but every trade-off and every move in the court. Here there are desperate struggles between aristocratic families and humble families, secret contests between emperors and powerful ministers, and repeated reversals between allies and enemies. The reinforcements you thought were actually Yama Luo seeking his life; the defeat you saw was just the beginning of closing the net. The history is fictitious, but the rich background is not lost; the power and arrogance are revealed, and the subtleties of human nature are revealed. Open this book and see who can truly control the world in the ninth heaven.
