King Huai of Chu

I just want to say one thing, the protagonist is 45 years old at the beginning! ! ! !

1. Beginning and system issues I have just started the book, and I actually have the urge to abandon it. Because the protagonist always carries the system, it feels like carrying a cheat device to gain experience by completing tasks. My interest in this novel suddenly reached its freezing point. However, after reading dozens of chapters, the system completely disappeared and never appeared again, so I decided to continue reading. (It should have been revised now) The protagonist in the back is more like a politician with modern thinking. He has never gone too far with technology. At most, he let the craftsmen make stone mills to grind flour. 2. The identity of the protagonist before time travel This is a common feature of many novels. The protagonist before time travel is generally a very mediocre person. In fact, the most suitable people to hang out in ancient times are senior government officials and soldiers who like to study that period of history. As far as this novel is concerned, the protagonist is best a politician at the level of mayor or secretary who likes to study the history of the Warring States Period, or a more ambitious official. But this is not a big problem, after all, it does not have much impact on the plot. 3. The age of the protagonist I didn't pay attention to this at first, but later I saw a plot: Gan Mao thought that Qin Wangdang could kill the protagonist, and waited for the Chu State's reform to fail due to the death of the protagonist. Some people in the comments also mentioned that the protagonist is 45 years old at the beginning... This actually leads to three problems: ① This novel cannot have too many love factors, even if the harem is collected, it is just political means and to satisfy men's possessiveness; ② The novel may end with the death of the protagonist; ③ It is difficult for the protagonist to complete the move to unify the six countries. 4. Plot procrastination problem It took about 10 years to annex the Yue Kingdom. 1,000 Chapters have passed. The reform is still in the planning stage. The long-standing shortcomings of the Chu Kingdom have not yet been resolved. The Chu Kingdom has been attacked several times, and the country's power has been greatly reduced. 5. Update problem The update is too slow. Please wait and see again. I hope you won't become a eunuch. 6.Dialectical viewThe problem of delayed plot and too slow update I know that many people are willing to read the cool article: King Huai was shocked, the wise men surrendered, appointed Qu Yuan, carried out reforms, enriched the country and strengthened the army, attacked Qin and destroyed Qi, and wiped out the six countries. I estimate that if I really write it, I should be able to finish it with more than a thousand chapters, and it will be quite enjoyable for readers. But in fact, if you think about it carefully:This is absolutely impossible. It's just that we consciously ignore the difficulties of reality in order to feel happy. The repetition and procrastination of this novel just illustrates the difficulty of Chu's reform: resistance from conservative die-hards, overt and covert defiance by vested interest groups, interference and even attacks from various countries. At the beginning of the novel, through Qu Yuan's words, it is revealed the depth of the Chu State's long-standing evils and the power of vested interest groups. Otherwise, Wu Qi's reform would not have collapsed quickly after the death of King Huai. King Huai's first reform failed quickly without even a shadow, and Qu Yuan was also thrown out as a scapegoat. As the king of Chu, the protagonist does not dare to ignore the reality and can only achieve his goals through various roundabout means, constantly weakening the power of vested interest groups and constantly increasing his authority as the king of Chu: In order not to irritate the die-hards, he demoted Qu Yuan and asked him to leave the political center, and built Xiangyang as a pilot; in order to weaken the power of the monarch, he did not hesitate to use the defeat of foreign wars as a The price; in order to gain public support for the reform, divert the contradictions of the reform, and subdue the voices of conservatives, the protagonist did not hesitate to make the entire Chu State feel the danger of national subjugation. He took his three young sons to the front line and initially implemented the military industry conferral system in Hanbei County at the border with Qin... It is very time-consuming to think and write these issues clearly, and it is understandable that the update is too slow. 7. Person perspective problem Third person. Although many historical novels use the third person "he", they mainly take the perspective of the protagonist. Scenes that the protagonist cannot see are generally not written, which makes people feel more involved. But this novel uses a lot of God's perspective, and other characters take up a lot of the scenes. The focus of this novel is the changes in influence that the protagonist has had on the entire Warring States Period after traveling through time (for example, King Wu of Qin did not go to the Kingdom of Zhou to lift the cauldron), rather than just staring at what the protagonist is doing all day long. 8. Context problem Some people think that the protagonist is moving here and there, and it is impossible to see what clear plan the protagonist has. I think that in fact, the Qin State, which destroyed the six kingdoms, did not necessarily have any plans for a long time after Shang Yang's reform, and probably had no plans to unify the six kingdoms. All the goals of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period are to survive. Moreover, there are 7 countries in total, wars are almost constant, and everything is constantly changing. It is almost impossible to control them all. You can only adapt to changes, and it is difficult to have a clear plan. Currently (about the first 1000 chapters), the protagonist has two major policies: ① Destroy the Yue Kingdom; ② Reform and break the situation. Details in 9. 9. The protagonist's general plan (up to Chapter 1037, "Mobilizing the Whole County") The plan is to destroy the Yue Kingdom, and it is expected that the destruction of Yue will inevitably lead to a series of attacks on Chu by other countries. In order to increase Chu's chances of winning against other countries, the protagonist almost weakened all the neighboring countries. He defeated the two major kingdoms of Qin and Qi several times, and at the same time slightly enhanced Chu's national strength. The plan to destroy Yue was implemented. After the victory of Yue, Chu State was attacked by various countries several times. The protagonist intends to carry out reforms, but direct reforms will inevitably lead to opposition from the aristocrats (especially the military merit conferment system and the land system). The aristocrats are too powerful and the reform will be difficult to succeed. On the one hand, the protagonist strengthens his own authority, and on the other hand, he uses various reasons to weaken the power of the nobles and monarchs. But this alone is not enough. The final step to break the situation is to use the help of other countries to attack Chu to make the people feel the danger of the country's destruction, enhance the cohesion of the people, and subdue the voices of conservatives. In the Hanbei County, which has been devastated by the wars of other countries, the military merit conferment system was first implemented. (The previous petty fight did not touch the interests of the prince, but this time it really touches the interests of the prince) 10. Summary A very pure ancient political novel, with no love, no friendship, or even family affection (the protagonist ruthlessly gave up Zilan for the benefit of the Chu State). There are only monarchs and ministers, family and country, strategy and politics, and the continuation of politics. The writing is too realistic, and realistic things are never as ideal as imagined. The contradictions and conflicts of domestic reforms and the vertical and horizontal attacks between countries are the main highlights of this book. (In my personal opinion, as long as this novel is not about eunuchs, it is more suitable for a more serious historical time-travel drama. I have not studied the history of the Warring States deeply, so this is my personal opinion) Finally, I sincerely hope that the author does not want eunuchs, even if it is updated every week. Of course, I will also give rewards from time to time and do my best to support the author. The novel is over. Although it does not end with the unification of the six countries, all the explanations that should be given are given. It is unrealistic for the protagonist to unify the six countries in one generation. The Qi State was destroyed before the ending, the Chu State made a huge profit, and the various countries united to suppress the Qin State in Hangu Pass. In the end, the protagonist also found a young and promising crown prince for the Chu State. Although it was not perfect, it was as reasonable as possible. Overall, this novel is well written. Although the author is only LV2, there should be many paying readers. In terms of level, the author is at least LV4 or even LV5. I don't know what determines the author level. Is the low level related to the slow update of the author? I feel that the author's rating is also one-sided. It is recommended that readers not only look at the author's rating, but also look at the book friend list to see how much readers are willing to spend on the novel and the author, and then make a decision based on the word count and update time of the novel.

There is a suggestion that the author should not write posthumous titles when writing about monarchs. For example, King Xiang of Han would use Han Wangcang, and King Xiang of Wei would use Wei Wanghe. King Xuan of Qi used the name Qi Wang Pijiang (this can be directly replaced by King Qi), and King Qin Huiwen used the name Qin Wang Si and so on. After all, it is awkward to use posthumous titles in novels to refer to the parties who are still alive in the story. Although I understand what it means, I still ask the author to take a look and think more about it. Thank you~\(≧▽≦)/~!

I just can't understand it. The author spent ten years of preparation and spent a huge price to destroy the Yue State. In exchange, all the countries in the world attacked Chu together. Even if you won, you lost hundreds of miles of land and hundreds of thousands of soldiers died. After that, the five countries continued to attack the Chu State. The territory of the Yue State not only did not provide help in a short period of time, but instead sent 100,000 troops to ** , after the destruction of Vietnam, all countries have been attacking Chu together, and then they have continued to lose troops and territory abroad. The good diplomatic situation has completely disappeared. Except for the useless Yan State, everyone in the world is an enemy. There is an ally, South Korea, and the protagonist has been forced to rebel. Now that the protagonist is over sixty, I want to ask the author what to do next. Does he want the protagonist to live to be a hundred years old and strengthen the Chu country? You want to imitate the unification of the Qin State, but the author does not look at the situation of the Chu State. Unlike the Qin State, which has Hangu Pass to defend, there is nothing a million coalition troops from the five countries can do, but the Chu State! I have written more than a thousand chapters now. I feel that after the protagonist's time travel, the Chu Kingdom not only failed to grow, but was constantly suppressed and beaten by the coalition forces. The protagonist sent people everywhere to bribe ministers of other countries with heavy sums of money. Even the small Song Kingdom beat you and you did not dare to fight back. Moreover, the author continued to belittle the prince of the Chu Kingdom. He did not like it but did not abolish it, and he was impatient to teach you. You must know that you are already over sixty. In those days, you could die at any time, okay, so if you still do these things and carry out reforms, how can you have the confidence that the prince will continue to carry out things according to your wishes after your death. Anyway, this book has too many poisonous points, and I don't want to say more. It is not easy for the author to write a book. I just hope that he can think about it carefully. If Yingzheng unified the six countries, you will also be confused and want to unify. Let's see how the situation develops.

The biggest poisonous point of this book is that no one during the Warring States Period considered themselves Han Chinese. The protagonist always regarded himself as Han Chinese. I was speechless😓

If Chu had unified China, the lives of the people at that time would have been much better than the deformed farming and war system of Qin.

Author, if you dare to depose the prince, I will reward you!

Let me praise this book. The author completely wrote about the feeling of the troubled times of the Warring States Period. You hit me and I hit you. You plotted against me and I missed you. Even the weakest countries are always thinking about annexing their territory to strengthen themselves! In this world of great strife, people are plotting and being plotted every day, there are accidents everywhere, and everything is precarious at all times! It completely describes the feeling of troubled times, and I am a fan.

It's really difficult for authors nowadays. The cool articles make the readers cunning, and the protagonist can't even lose at all. Many annoying reasonable people don't actually think the plot is unreasonable. They think it is unreasonable. Many times it is because of their own ignorance.
