    (History + fictional history + fantasy + strategy + battle development) The background of this article is similar to the last years of Li Zhi in the Tang Dynasty to the Anshi Rebellion. During Li Zhi's reign, he successively destroyed the Western Turks (657 years), Baekje (660 years), and Goguryeo (668 years), making the Tang Dynasty's territory the largest. However, since the first year of Xianheng (670), the Four Towns of Anxi, Tuyuhun and other areas have been successively captured by the Tibetan God of War Qinling. The Tang Dynasty's territory in the Western Regions declined and was defeated by Silla and lost the Korean Peninsula. They also listened to the slander and killed the surrendered East Turkic Khan Ashina Funen, which led to the East Turks rebelling against the Tang and becoming independent, establishing the Post-Turkic Khanate, and invading the borders of the Tang Dynasty for many years. I am a programmer and a writer. So they may want to highlight how their professional background can be integrated into novel creation, such as topological-level logical verification, self-consistent occult systems, and sophisticated foreshadowing. These are the key differences from other fantasy novels and historical novels.
