Think about it: how could anyone who made a name for themselves in the history books be a pushover, easily manipulated by just any modern person who traveled back in time? Even in fiction, are there any historical novels that are at least a little realistic and make some sense?

I don't want the Ming Dynasty. Anyway, I really don't like the Ming Dynasty. I really don't like the Ming Dynasty. The main thing is that the Ming Dynasty is close to the forbidden sea. In all dynasties, except the Qing Dynasty, that waste is just like the Ming Dynasty. The waste returns to the forbidden sea.

Look, there is no need to read it as a novel, there is no problem in reading it as a history book, there is no problem with the logic, using various materials such as archaeological data and historical materials, using multiple dimensions to analyze history, whether it is merit or demerit, for example, how did Ji Zhou attract the nobles to support them in destroying the Shang Dynasty? Human sacrifice system, so why? Because King Zhou of Shang narrowed the scope of the human sacrifice system, the nobles basically could not use it. At this time, the Zhou Dynasty gave them the green light. Of course they supported the Zhou Dynasty, but the main issue was interest. King Zhou of Shang exploited the interests of the nobles, and the Zhou Dynasty supported the interests of the nobles. Zhou Gongdan changed the history books. What did he change?

No historical figures are mentioned, because the emperors of the Beast Dynasty of the Northern Qi Dynasty really had no moral bottom line. Gao Changgong would probably have been a little transparent in other times, but in that "crazy" family, he was abnormally normal. After stringing together the main events of the Northern Qi Dynasty, the second volume of the Hou Jing Rebellion focuses on Yang Kan and Chen Xin. In the third volume, Gao Yang is the main character, scolding this bastard every day. The fourth volume is about the Qian Ming Dynasty (I sorted out this chapter very well, I think it is the same as the thesis), and the fifth volume is about the home of the three heroes of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

[No system + rebel literature + power plot + father and son falling in love and killing each other] Liu Ju, the eldest son of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was born in the womb. My biological father is Liu Che, the most powerful carbon-based creature on earth in the second century BC! The configuration of my mother's family is even more outrageous! Mother Wei Zifu, uncle Wei Qing, cousin Huo Qubing, cousin Huo Guang... Tell me how to lose with this lineup? But he was slandered by an eunuch as a rebel, and after being a prince for thirty years, he committed suicide in a daze, and was even given the word "violent"! Can this be tolerated? ! ! ! Liu Ju: "Dad, my life is like walking on thin ice. Do you think I can make it to the other side?" Liu Che looked at the two generals Wei and Huo beside him, and said speechlessly, "eldest son, you can do whatever you want!" [Like][Like][Like][Like]

Highly recommended historical novel! The author has a rigorous textual research style. I don't know how much information he consulted before he presented the three-dimensional history before our eyes! The age, official position, and hobbies of the minor characters in the book all correspond to those in the history books. The minor allusions in the book are all from "Hanshu" and "Zuo Zhuan". The poems in the book are all appropriate and accurate quotations from "The Book of Songs" and "Chu Ci". The key is to be logical, not brainless or systematic, a truly good book!

Reader note
The two highly in-depth and logical historical strategy works shared have distinctive characteristics and unique market positioning. Although its audience is relatively small, it is a rare work for readers who like historical deductions and strategic analysis. The novel neither belongs to the traditional "historical literature" (because it incorporates a lot of strategic deductions and assumptions), nor does it fully conform to the entertainment characteristics of "shuangwen" or "fantasy literature". It is positioned closer to a "historical strategy article" and is a niche but extremely in-depth genre.
