    The new book, set in the Three Kingdoms period, covers military strategy, tactics, people's livelihood, aristocratic families, imperial relatives, campaigns, sieges, field battles, a female protagonist, children, and foreign tribes. It includes all these elements. There is no harem. It features compassion, but not a saintly figure. It depicts the lives of ordinary people, the conquest of cities, the beheading of generals, and the assassination of spies. It also features prestigious families and marriage alliances. There is no system; the only advantage is the protagonist's high martial arts skills. It has a single female protagonist and no harem. Other historical female characters will appear, but they will not be part of the harem.
