    Check out this alternative infrastructure novel, *Emperor Renzu of Tang*. Completed in mid-September with nearly a million words, I recommend reading the comments section of the last chapter first, where the author summarizes the entire novel. The protagonist, Li Ke, starts by concealing his true abilities and self-deprecatingly saves Qin Shubao, then joins forces with Li Daozong despite his own shortcomings, cleverly presenting a composite bow, horse tack, telescope, and sand table. He uses a combination of literary and martial arts to win the heart of Shen Luoli, and uses water magic to move Changsun Pinting's heart. His court campaigns emphasize military strength over civil affairs, while his victorious return reflects a policy of prioritizing civil over military governance. His campaign against Xueyantuo features his own unique tactics, including the "trapping horses in a trough" strategy, replicating the "Four Crossings of the Chishui River" and the four crossings of Langjuxu Mountain, employing the theory of contradictions, and retaining elements from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. He also mentions Xue Rengui's three arrows pacifying the Tianshan Mountains, conquering Bohai and Liaodong, subjugating Goguryeo, and even kicking a horse cart wheel to fight the Japanese… The list of memorable scenes is endless. It's truly fantastic! There's even a complete love letter inside! 😂 Most authors write storybooks, but the author of *Emperor Renzu of Tang* is a true novelist. The author's writing style, word choice, plot structure, understanding of imperial strategies, political maneuvering, emotional nuances, military warfare, court intrigue, and governance are all top-notch. The author's writing is astonishing, the scope grand, the themes lofty, and the thoughts profound. The author possesses solid knowledge, a deep cultural foundation, and masterful political maneuvering. If you don't like it after reading, you can slap me in the face! It's not a mindless system-crushing story; it focuses on political intrigue, large-scale ancient warfare, a constant romantic storyline involving Shen Luoli, and multiple parallel storylines encompassing court intrigue and governance. It blends historical figures from the Zhenguan era with characters from the Sui and Tang Dynasties, adding modern military and philosophical elements for a disruptive effect. Modern thought and educational achievements are used as an experiment in the evolution of civilization in the Tang Dynasty.
