   The writing is good, the logic is tight, the plot is compact, and it is very realistic. War, economy, politics, and resources are very closely intertwined. No time travel, no brainless fun, no cheats, no wisdom, no falling in love, no system. The current main plot trend: In the first volume, you watch a tall building rise and then collapse, and then in Chapter 10, you receive guidance from an expert to complete a reasonable reversal of tactics. The second volume is full of the bitterness of workers at the bottom of the workplace who are squeezed but find ways to work their way up. The third volume begins with a battle volume, and begins to enter the violent aesthetic of blood and flesh. As of the fourth volume so far, the worldview has once again increased its dimension, reaching a situation where multiple countries and forces participate in a complex game.

    There is no such thing as a person who starts a business and becomes an emperor without success. The male protagonist personally practices this sentence. It is a fictional historical novel set in the Southern and Northern Dynasties era. There are many female protagonists, but the female protagonist is not a flower vase and has an independent personality. She and the male protagonist go back and forth, and the male protagonist does not want to accept women. The queen of the country is subjugated, the Qiang noble daughter, the alien princess, and the beauties of the family are not rejected. The writing style is a bit original.

    The good-for-nothing prince was conferred the title of prince in a poor border county, but was frightened to death by bandits at the beginning. The protagonist travels through time with great force, performs a palace stunt, crushes the bandits' sexual audacity, confiscates everything in one sentence, and lays the foundation for making a fortune. From then on, he started a happy life of farming, raising soldiers, conquering the world, and picking up girls when he had nothing to do. There is no system. The protagonist knows some medical skills and can read illustrated cheats if necessary. The story is compact, light-hearted and funny. After reading it for a long time, you feel like the spring breeze blowing on your face, waking you up from alcohol and moisturizing things silently. Unconsciously, the fatigue of the day was relieved. ᖰ⌯'▾'⌯ᖳ

    When Song Jiang's machinations touch the water, when the yellow flag of solicitation obscures loyalty, can Hua Rong's arrow tip pierce this destined tragedy? "Hua Rong Creates a New Liangshan of Loyalty", with Xiao Li Guang Hua Rong as the core of the narrative, retells that heroic epic intertwined with passion and sadness. There is no dilemma of foolishness and loyalty here, no dream of recruiting people to be safe. Let's see how the archer who walks through the Yangtze with a hundred steps clears the fog, uses the bow and arrow as the pen, and uses loyalty as the ink. On the land of Shuibo Liangshan, he re-outlines the fate of one hundred and eight generals. Familiar portraits of heroes, a new game of power, when Hua Rong stands in the center of the Juyi Hall, for whom will the flag of Liangshan be red in the end? I will use delicate brushwork to dismantle the classics, open up a new game in the gaps of history, and give every unwilling soul the possibility of rewriting the ending.
