The twelfth chapter of "The Emperor's Memoirs" is here!
Full name of the book: "Memoirs of the Emperor - Gawain Cecil in My Eyes" This book is also known as:"Hu Speaks of Gawain", "Drunk Amber Talks Gao", "Amber Blows the Bliss - Gawain Chapter" and so on... Author: Amber (I wrote it from Amber's perspective) Note: Due to the word limit of the post, articles 1 to 11 are in other posts. Please search for "Memoirs of the Emperor" at the top of the book club or go to the fandom section of the Sword of the Dawn book club and browse down. Of course, you can also go to my homepage to find 🙏🙏🙏 (you can follow me by the way, although I don't know what the use of following is) Go to the text! Foreword Long time no see! Everyone liked it so enthusiastically! Thank you for your thumbs up for "Memoirs of an Emperor". I will try my best to finish this book. It seems that Lao Zongzi no longer cares about my "Memoirs of the Emperor", just like the original "Records of the Emperor's Holy Words". The evil old Zongzi finally showed his tofu heart. (Although I don't know what tofu is, this is all the nonsense of the Old Zongzi Cult) By the way, the sixteenth issue of "The Emperor's Holy Words" has been published, and everyone is welcome to come and buy it. Without further ado, let's get to the main text! [Chapter 12: About the Liberation of Lu'an City] (Large Chapter) The Holy Light Church participated a lot in this southern war. On the surface, some church knights participated in the noble coalition, but secretly, a Holy Light Bishop led twelve Holy Sees to directly attack Cecil City. Although they were knocked down by an ordinary researcher from Cecil with an ordinary arcane missile with a diameter of seventeen meters, the purpose of their actions was very obvious - to use force to contain Lao Zongzi and prevent this legendary strongman from participating in the duel between Cecil and the aristocratic alliance. Laughing to death, when Bishop Lemont stood under the southern wall of Cecil City, the 30,000 fleeing noble coalition led by Kant had been chased for dozens of miles by 3,000 Cecil soldiers. The Holy Light Church's "little actions" in this war obviously became the trigger for the confrontation with Cecil. So Lao Zongzi besieged Lu'an City, the core of the Holy Light Church in the South. But Lao Zongzi did not directly push down Luan City, because this would be a big stain on himself and the future Cecil Empire. Old Zongzi said that during the establishment stage of Cecil Principality, every stain caused by everything he did would cost ten times or even a hundred times to make up for it a few years later, and it was even impossible to make up for it. Even, these stains will become a reminder for this country in its period of decline. Moreover, the Holy Light Bishop and priests of Luan City are ready to be martyred. Speaking of which, these people have a special way of thinking similar to the nobles. They can run away when the artillery fire falls, and they can abandon the castle and the people without hesitation when the sword is coming. They bully the civilians, and they suppress all opposition voices. But when the nobles come to the so-called "glorious bloodline and surname", and when the Holy Light believers come to the "Lord of the Holy Light and the Doctrine", these spineless guys instead stand up and are not afraid of death. Of course, not all Holy Light believers are evil people. Old Zongzi also said that not all believers have no objection to what the Holy Light Church did that year. The Holy Light Church cannot have only one Wright. Then, the printing press, the first legion to liberate Luan City, made its debut. Old Zongzi first asked people to print and publish leaflets, which wrote about the church's operation methods and various shady stories, and promoted the new Holy Light doctrine. Then he asked people to walk these into the city, thus causing a confrontation between the church's top leaders and the oppressed civilians, and against those believers who were ostracized by the top leaders because they questioned the church. Old Zongzi asked people to write these contents in newspapers and publish them throughout the southern border. They also asked people to take pictures of the church's oppression of the people and print them in newspapers. The bishops and priests of Lu'an City aroused public indignation among people throughout the southern border. If anyone thinks this is a scheming trick to manipulate public opinion, it is disgraceful. Then he is either a person who has not experienced that era, or he comes from Typhon next door to cause trouble. Every word written in the leaflet and newspaper is true. What's more, no one will feel cruel when heinous criminals are hanged. Then there is the powerful proof of the new doctrine of the Holy Light, Wright and his White Knight. When talking about Wright, I think of the cute little Emily next to him. You may not believe that I discovered Emily first. At that time, he was discovered by me in Wright's holy light, with eyes like the searchlights of a magic train. I awakened Old Zongzi in Cecil's ancestral grave, and I awakened Emily in Wright's holy light. To be honest, I was a little doubtful whether I was chosen by the Goddess of Darkness or the God of Death. During the early stages of the siege of Luan City, Cecil's researchers completed an extremely important experiment in the laboratory of the Disobedience Fortress, which proved that the soul seal is affected by "self-awareness" and also found a way to bypass the soul seal to cast divine spells. I was at the scene and was a witness. I witnessed the entire experiment and witnessed a group of cute rebels cheering around two simple magic devices. Applying this method, Cecil has a new powerful unit - the white knight. Everyone knows what happened next. After the first bell of dawn rang, the gate of the closed city of Luan was opened from the inside. The white knight carrying the war hammer came in front, and the people with white cloth bands on their sleeves followed. With swords and spears in hand, pitchforks and wooden sticks, they liberated the city of Luan step by step. (To be continued) What are you doing standing there⊙∀⊙? Thumbs up!

Cecil's Fables
"Loren Moves the Mountains" It is said that there was an old man named Silas Laurent during the Ansu period. There was a mountain in front of Laurent's house that blocked his way, so Silas Laurent decided to move the two mountains in front of his house. His neighbor Rosetta Augustus laughed at his stupid behavior and thought it was impossible, but Silas Loren said: "I will have a son after my death, and my son will have grandchildren after his death. There is no end to the descendants. This mountain will not get higher. If you chip away at it, it will become less. One day it will be leveled." In the end, Silas Loren's actions moved Emperor Cecil, who ordered Hercules Home and his men to carry the mountain away. This is also the reason why Baisha Hills turned into Baisha Mine.
"Memoirs of the Emperor" Parts 1 to 4 (Due to word limit, Parts 5 to 12 have been posted in a new post)
Full name of the book: "Memoirs of the Emperor - Gawain Cecil in My Eyes" Author: Amber (actually I wrote it from Amber's perspective) This book is also known as: "Hu Speaks of Gawain", "Amber's Words in Amber", "Drunk Amber's Words", "Amber's Blowing Record - Gawain Chapter", etc... Note: Due to the word limit of the post, this post can only be published to the fourth post, so a new post will be opened from the fifth post and updated in another post. (Now updated to Chapter 12) You can find it by searching for "Memoirs of the Emperor" in the book circle. (You can also go to my homepage to find it) Please also spread the word! ! ! Foreword What kind of person is Gawain Cecil? Some people think he is the "Pioneer of the Kingdom of Anzu", of course most of these people are rotten; some people think he is "Emperor Cecil", most of them are like this; and some "informed people" think he is an "outlander". I don't know what kind of person he is. Maybe you can judge by listening to my next description. (Serious beginning) Gawain Cecil, ordinary people call him "Emperor"; the two princesses call him "Ancestor"; the former gods call him "Friend"; Little Betty calls him "Master"; personally I like to call him "Old Zongzi". This somewhat ridiculing word was told to me by Gawain Cecil himself. Our Emperor usually speaks a lot of "saucy words", which according to him are called "golden sentences". However, Lao Zongzi has been talking less recently, and the updates of "The Emperor's Holy Words" have been much slower. I would like to declare here that those of you who have pre-ordered the 13th issue of "The Emperor's Holy Words" in advance, don't worry, I, Amber, will not leave you with a dirty talk. Our Emperor is busy with many things right now, and he probably doesn't have time to write a memoir or anything like that. As the director of the Imperial Military Intelligence Bureau, the Emperor's personal Shadow Master (no mistake), and a witness to the emperor's rise (no mistake), I, Amber, naturally have to shoulder this heavy responsibility. (It's not because "The Emperor's Holy Words" is running out, nor is it to brag) So I have this book "The Emperor's Memoirs", above. Part 1: About Unveiling the Coffin "Gawain Cecil, I am Gawain Cecil, the pioneer of the Kingdom of Ansu... What era is it now?" This is the first thing the old Zongzi said after unveiling the coffin and rising. There is no rumored auspiciousness coming from the sky, nor is there a huge beam of light. Many of the "witnessed" emperor's resurrection scenes spread outside are basically deceptive. The only people present at that time were this Shadow Master, Amber, and four of my followers: Imperial Archon Hetty Cecil, Imperial Princess Rebecca Cecil, Imperial Navy Commander Byron Kirk (I only remembered when I wrote this that I didn't know Byron's last name before), Betty, the head maid of the Emperor's Palace, and three ordinary soldiers. At that time, our Emperor, under the guidance of this Shadow Master, returned his lost soul to its rightful place. Not long after Lao Zongzi had just faked the corpse (correctly), he would occasionally be slow to speak and would often be in a daze. (Later he mentioned that this was due to a bunch of reasons that I couldn't understand, such as memory, application, etc.) However, he quickly deduced from the clues that the demonic tide was coming, and after making some arrangements, he took us to King Ansu City. Historians who study the old zongzi will say at this time: "Ah! The resurrection of His Majesty Gawain Cecil turned the wheel of fate in the direction of light! He raised the sword and shield that symbolized development and spread light throughout the world!" In fact, this is indeed the case, but it is not entirely like this. Let's not mention that a hundred years before Old Zongzi's resurrection, his shield was stolen by one of his descendants. Let's just say that when Old Zongzi was resurrected, he was not as glorious as you imagined. It's all fake to rise up and sweep away thousands of gods and demons with his sword. Speaking of which, you young people who grew up in the stable Cecil Empire may not believe it. The first thing our Emperor did after uncovering the coffin was to run for his life. It's a bit sad to think about it. If it weren't for this Shadow Master to guide the way, our Emperor and several senior officials of the empire might have been trapped underground and died. The future Cecil Empire ceased to exist. please give me an awesome look. Akimbo. Jpg At that time, countless aberrations rushed underground. Those of you young people who grew up in the stable Cecil Empire and were blessed with no blessings could never imagine that Cecil did not have advanced equipment at that time. Killing one aberration required a lot of people to fight together. A few of them simply could not resist so many monsters, and even this Shadow Master could not protect everyone. We were on the run at that time. The last few people escaped outside under the guidance of this shadow master. The old Zongzi, who had not seen the light of day for seven hundred years, stared at the sun for a long time. Updated dividing line . I would like to state here that there is absolutely no lie in my Amber words. By the way, let me advertise, the 13th issue of "The Emperor's Holy Words" has been released, a brand new slang! A whole new level of enjoyment! Everyone is welcome to come and buy. In addition, "The Emperor's Holy Words" (a collection of issues 1 to 10) has been published and is available on the Narrator Network and offline bookstores in various cities. If you order offline, you will have the opportunity to get my autograph! Come and buy now! [Part 2: Preparations before entering the royal city] As mentioned in the previous article, Old Zongzi stood up from his coffin and was chased by monsters. Finally, he escaped under the guidance of this shadow master. Maybe everyone thinks that without the threat of monsters, Lao Zongzi will soar into the sky and establish the great Cecil Empire. But the truth is not that simple. There are still many things needed to establish the Cecil Empire, including people, food, territory, and the recognition of the Ansu royal family at that time. The newly resurrected old Zongzi also needs to better understand the current situation. So Old Zongzi first persuaded Viscount Andrew to preserve for himself the few hundred remaining citizens of the Cecil Territory. And he himself took the opportunity to deliver news to Saint-Sunil City, and constantly publicized what happened in Cecil Territory and the news of his resurrection on the road to build momentum, which made the king and the nobles dare not openly oppose him. Speaking of which, you young people who grew up in the stable Cecil Empire and are blessed with no blessings may not believe that Lao Zongzi is the founding prince of the Ansu Kingdom. How could the king and nobles dare to attack him casually? However, this is indeed the case. Old Zongzi once said: "They are willing to hang me on the wall, write in books, and offer me on the table. Even the king is willing to lead the whole family to personally place a bouquet for me every year and put his three flowers on it. Damn it - you can earn a good reputation without any risk, but if this ancestor really jumped out of the coffin, the first reaction of the group of people who put me on the stage before would probably be to push me back into the coffin and then nail more than two hundred nails in all directions. It's a nail, and if it's more severe, it will probably be filled with lead." (The above paragraph is mentioned in the second issue of "The Emperor's Holy Words", and it is also available in the collection of issues 1 to 10. If you like it, please order it!) It is true that the king and nobles will remember the hero, because the hero's image and reputation can be used to consolidate his rule, but he will never want the hero to come back. Once the hero comes back, those images and reputation are no longer something he can control. This was a bad feature of the aristocratic rule of the old era, but it was also because of this that when the news that "the founding prince was resurrected because of the monster invasion of Cecil territory" spread, the safety of Lao Zongzi was protected. Lao Zongzi, on the other hand, was building momentum on the surface, but secretly was preparing in a low-key manner. Then there was a constant delay in the journey. When we arrived at Saint-Sunil City, Lao Zongzi was fully prepared. The next step is the negotiation in Wangcheng. Update dividing line Don't worry, even if Amber encounters great difficulties, I will still leave you with a memoir! In addition, the hardcover collector's edition of "The Holy Words of the Emperor" has been released. It is not only exquisite in workmanship, but also comes with some commemorative and collectible items. It may be but not limited to the pen used by Cecil the Great himself (with tooth marks), the emperor's secret diary written in strange characters (hand-written version, the original version will be discovered if stolen), etc. The price is close to the people, and it is sold through various channels. Come and buy it! [Part 3: About the Royal City Negotiation] Where did we talk about in the previous article, ah, yes, the Royal City Negotiation. I have to say that our old Zongzi's struggle history is really ups and downs. He always switches back and forth between high-profile and low-profile, and between being cowardly and not being cowardly. First, he unveiled the coffin in a low-key manner (I always thought it was very low-key because there was no light effect at all when he was resurrected), and then he had a high-profile conversation with Viscount Andrew, using his momentum and wisdom to convince Viscount Andrew to help him take care of the people. After leaving Tanzania Town, Lao Zongzi made high-profile efforts on the surface but made low-key preparations behind the scenes. When he arrived at the city of Saint-Sunil, he raised Cecil's flag in a high-profile manner and strode into the city with twelve large soldiers. Then he quietly moved into the shabby mansion at No. 4 Crown Street (because of this, I, the great Shadow Master, have never lived in the Imperial Palace until now). On the surface, the Ansu royal family and nobles are very respectful to Lao Zongzi, but secretly they are not very honest. That night was really dangerous. A lot of people sneaked into the mansion. We resisted desperately. Even if I had the strength to defeat an Ansu Royal Shadow Guard, it was quite difficult. Finally, a giant dragon sneaked up on me. I was careless and did not dodge, and was defeated with difficulty. Then the next day was the negotiation. In fact, there was nothing much to talk about in the negotiation (not because I was not present at the time). For the specific content of the negotiation day, you can refer to the Cecil Middle School second-grade history textbook. In short, Lao Zongzi came to the palace with great fanfare, but in the end he didn't make any high demands. The then King Francis II naturally agreed. Then there was the banquet to welcome Old Zongzi. There was nothing to say about this (I was not present either). Obviously the short-sighted nobles at that time did not know how powerful I was, the Shadow Master. Although there are occasional high-profile and sometimes low-profile, there are various reasons. These are the young people who grew up in New Cecil and are ignorant of the blessings. They understand that the previous era is indeed different from the present. I, Amber, used to be a thief, so it doesn't matter if I say it. There are many high-ranking officials in the intelligence department who have dirty backgrounds. They are all thieves and the like. At that time, there were too few ways for ordinary people to survive. Old Zongzi once said well: "In order to survive, no one is wrong." (Collected in the ninth issue of "The Emperor's Holy Words") I am not defending myself, but stating the facts. At my request, the Cecil Military Intelligence Bureau is now the place with the most stringent review of Special Branch. All of us dug out the provisions of Cecil's law bit by bit, and it took many years to finally implement it smoothly. I used to be a petty thief, but if I still think about exploiting such loopholes today, then too many people's efforts will be in vain. Ah, it's a bit off topic. Anyway, after negotiating in the royal city, Old Zongzi hurried back to Cecil. The next step is to start building Cecil. Update the dividing line It was a miscalculation. He shouldn't have stolen them all and left him without a pen, otherwise he wouldn't have discovered it so quickly. Fortunately, they didn't notice that I copied his diary, hehe. So you all know the reason for the slow update this time. I was slapped on the wall by the old rice dumpling. [Part 4: About Farming] If there is an older generation in the family who was one of Cecil's first subjects, then you must have heard them tell the story of Gawain using meat to inspire his subjects. Old Zongzi once said that people in the old days were not ignorant, but this does not mean that they were not ignorant. (See the third issue of "The Holy Words of the Emperor") The common people and serf classes of that era were much more ignorant than they are now. The social structure and heavy cost of living left them with almost no channels to acquire knowledge and increase their knowledge, and they had no energy to pay attention to them. Only if they survive in this situation for a long time will they appear not to think, and will have the illusion of "ignorance". It is useless to make false claims at this time. Only "those who do the best will get meat" are the most motivating factors for them. Old Zongzi once said that for the people, food comes first. (See the second issue of "The Holy Words of the Emperor") Yes, only when they are satisfied with food and are not frightened by hunger can people think about other things. Only by ensuring that you have a full stomach can you think about what is good and what is bad. Old Zongzi told me two days ago that the best way to write a novel about his experiences would be a farming novel. (This sentence will be published in the fourteenth issue of "The Emperor's Holy Words") I asked him what a Taneda-ryu novel is, and he told me that the protagonist of this kind of novel usually establishes his own base first, and then builds science and technology, economy, military, and political systems on his own territory. During this period, there was basically no war with external forces. After farming is completed, he will conquer the world with his super-era abilities. It suits Lao Zongzi very well. He did the same thing. He developed in a low profile first and then overturned the entire Ansu with a high profile. As for why it is called farming flow, Lao Zongzi said that it is because farming is the most important and basic. When he was negotiating in the royal city, he discussed the provision of food subsidies for the pioneering territories as an important topic. There is a history question in the first grade of Cecil Middle School. What was the first object designed by Gawain Cecil? The answer is the waterwheel, which was designed to irrigate farmland. In the eyes of Lao Zongzi, farming is the first priority. Cecil's first official position was that of Minister of Agriculture. Ah, speaking of this, I think the fill-in-the-blank question in this year's high school entrance examination may test whether the waterwheel was established by Gawain Cecil during discussions with whom, and their respective official positions in the future. A big question might examine the significance of the invention of the waterwheel. (Welcome to answer in the comment area) Farming is the basis of survival, and ironmaking is the basis of strength. The next article talks about iron smelting.

Why in 2023, I still love you "Sword of Dawn"?
Because in this novel, you can enjoy a reading experience that is extremely difficult to experience elsewhere. It may not be the best online novel in history, but it is undoubtedly a type of work that is more "literary" in terms of literary tendencies - it is not a random graffiti, but an artistic work that has the theme and soul running through it from beginning to end. After reading the first few chapters of "Sword of the Dawn", readers will mistakenly think it is a fantasy adventure story in the world of swords and magic, but please do not be fooled by it. This article is essentially a science fiction novel, even a bit hardcore. What is the theme of "Sword of the Dawn"? In other words, what is so wonderful about it and what is there to see? I would like to summarize the following points using my own reading experience. The first point is the complete world system constructed by the author, which presents readers with extremely real feelings from various perspectives such as country, class, magic, religion, and profession. What is particularly surprising is that the author even boldly raised some deep questions while achieving logical self-consistency under the original world system. For example, the setting of "magic" may be replaced by words such as "spells", "spells", and "spells" in other books - what a convenient setting! Animals turn into humans, this is magic; plants speak, this is magic; magic cannons destroy the world, this is magic... But in Sword of the Dawn, you will see the author using a lot of pen and ink to research and explore such an issue. What is the essence of "magic"? For most people, what magic is is not a question at all. They think that magic is magic, a force that exists everywhere in the world, the wealth of the gods, and a treasure that divides people into three, six, and nine grades. Is magic a wave? Is magic the result of the resonance of the specific magnetic field that envelopes the planet with people? Or is it some "thing" that uses matter as a carrier? If magic is an energy field, can the operation result of magic be regarded as a special kind of fluctuation? It sounds a bit convoluted and confusing, but this is the interesting part of this book. The author uses a rational writing style to explore those neglected "laws" in a world of swords and magic. What is surprising is that he can finally make a convincing explanation and develop science on this basis. In other words, he has completed the most difficult to achieve and the most essential logical self-consistency among all fantasy novels. The second point is the description of the people at the bottom of society in the book. This is another reading experience that is difficult to get elsewhere. In ordinary fantasy stories, the wheel of history always seems to be driven by the protagonist, and most authors do not use a lot of writing power to write about the fate of ordinary people who pass by the protagonist. But what surprises me again is that the width of Yuantong's pen seems to be able to accommodate those people caught in the cracks of history. Where will those blacksmiths go under the magical machinery brought by the Magical Industrial Revolution? Will farmers' new-age planters lead to more harvests, or more exploitation? What impact will the emergence of railways have on businessmen? What impact will the circulation of newspapers and periodicals have on the literacy rate of ordinary people? Even the first mechanical ship sailed to the sea to bring about golden trade routes, and the first aircraft soared into the sky to subvert the war system. How did the declining knights of the old era transform and contend under the torrent of tanks? When the new religious system and the new doctrinal flag of the Holy Light are held high over Cecil City, what kind of shock will it have to the remnants of the old era? Yes, this is another highlight that shocked me - the changes of the times. The violent collision between the old era and the new era, and the contradictions caused by the confrontation of ideological trends can almost firmly attract your attention! Yuantong uses a huge amount of space to tell you that the real driving force for the advancement of the times is not the protagonist Gawain, but the people around him. The people, only the people. The third point is the relationship between people and gods, and people and religion. In order to better tell this point, please allow me to tell you a short story from the book in brief language (please skip this point if you don't want to be spoiled). There is a priest who truly believes in the God of Holy Light. He has traveled a long way from the Central Plains and sincerely preaches to everyone. He is so pious, but his own magical talent is not outstanding and he can only use very simple spells. On the other hand, the Holy Light Church in the Central Plains is greedy and selfish, and constantly exploits the money of civilians in the name of the Holy Light, euphemistically calling it "atonement." Ironically, the God of Holy Light responds extremely strongly to them. Their magical talents have not been reduced at all because of their sins, which is completely inconsistent with the description of faith in the doctrine. This priest has come a long way. He had never had the slightest doubt or wavering in the Holy Light before, but the Holy Light abandoned him - just because he attacked other priests in order to save a child who was abused by the church. He was forced to wander, and was forced to become enemies with other colleagues in the war. He watched helplessly as the Holy See Knight killed an innocent, poor girl like a beast, and the holy light of justice flowed around the murderer. As a result, his trust in the Holy Light was shaken. He tried to think about why God gave those thugs the powerful power of Holy Light. The Holy Light was supposed to be used to save the world, but was used by those people as a barbaric weapon. So - who is the God of Holy Light? What is the Holy Light? What does human faith mean to gods? So, there is the following classic scene. " Wright opened his eyes, and the holy light surged in his eyes, surging in the shocking wound on his face. He raised his light-cast arms and grabbed the neck of the Holy See Knight... Under the fear of death, the Holy See Knight widened his eyes and stared into Wright's eyes: "The Lord... The Lord curses you! " "I-curse-it! " Pure brilliance burst out from the Holy See Knight. In this unprecedented clear light, the blood, flesh and bones of the Holy See Knight instantly vaporized, and a pair of tattered armor and robes were scattered on the ground. The righteous people are abandoned by the Holy Light, but the ferocious villains who loot and kill have the power of the Holy Light. What is the reason behind this? "Sword of the Dawn" certainly gives a very shocking answer, and it is also an enlightening truth. I can't write it down directly. That would lose a lot of fun. What I can guarantee is that when the true relationship between people and gods is truly revealed, the truth will definitely be an unexpected answer for you. I admit that I was too excited to write, but I read Sword of the Dawn twice. I was almost as shocked as the first time. This strong emotional impact made me have to write something down. I love this book so much. If you have any novels similar to the style of this book, please let me know. Finally, I want to say, Yuan Tong is awesome!
Secret Blood Soldier City Cup When we read the farming article, what are we looking forward to?
What are we looking forward to when we read farming articles? Farming is a theme that has been popular for many years. It involves time travel and rebirth, ancient and modern times, China and foreign countries, and alien continents. The backgrounds are rich, and the plots also present different interests due to different background structures. Generally speaking, Zhongtian Wen has also summarized certain routine templates. The term "routine" here is not a derogatory term, but a summary of some experiences in the industry that will inevitably be brought about by the gradual maturity of the online literature industry, such as the classic Industrial Revolution routines. But after reading so many farming novels, besides watching the growth of the protagonist, the harvest of family love and career, and the progress of society, what else are we looking forward to? "Sword of Dawn" is such an answer. Strictly speaking, Sword of the Dawn is not a farming novel in the traditional sense. It is more like a symphony orchestra playing under a famous conductor. The conductor is the soul, but it is each musician in the orchestra who contributes an auditory feast to the audience. Gawain is a shining sword in the darkness. He rises from the coffin and illuminates the Cecil family that is shrouded in declining destiny. He cuts through the haze shrouding the ruins of the world and lets the dawn sun shine on the earth. But to clear the dark clouds in the sky, we need more than just a sharp sword. It requires cannonballs hitting the torn hole, and it requires the efforts and waiting of people on the ground. What Gawain brought was scientific concepts and ideologies that were more advanced than the social structure at that time. He himself was the conductor of the symphony orchestra, allowing each musician to maximize his or her own value without conflicting with each other and taking the lead. But Lai Ming's biggest surprise is not here, but the direct criticism of backward ideologies and the lack of shyness about social shortcomings. Under the dark clouds in the city of Luan, what persuaded Amber to be used as a poison-quenching dagger was Gawain's display of more powerful social productivity. Although the citizens of Luan City may have lived better than most people in Cecil at that time, the future brought about by stronger productivity has shown itself to be more progressive. Bertila mocked his "bullshit great cause", and Gawain also reminded himself that "the people don't need you to teach them." That's right, the people's view of history, the revolutionary view of history. Big Eyeball uses a skillful writing style to skillfully depict the relationship between heroes and the people. Gawain is a hero, but the creators of history are the people. We have all read in political books that "the progressive ideas and propositions put forward by the political representatives of the advanced class can become the forerunners of social change, and they can become the initiators of the realization of certain historical tasks." "The people are the subjects and creators of history, and are the decisive force in promoting historical development." These words, Gao Wen and the people who support him jointly interpreted such a materialist view of history, and the imaginary background also reflects that this is a universal law of the development of human society. The revolutionary view of history is explained by Gawain using the violent Southern Territory Unification War and the Crystal Cluster War. It is also explained by Amber's continuous internal chipping and scraping to remove the degenerate power in these systems. It is also explained by building a community of destiny and uniting all forces that can be united. Revolution is not only violent resistance to the old system, but also self-revolution with a gun pointed at the enemy and a gun pointed at oneself. The big-eyed man did not shy away from how progressive forces can maintain progress. Constant revolution, always young, facing the future, and preparing for a rainy day. This is the description he gave us, and what history and reality tell us. This is a deep or shallow view of revolutionary history that is rooted in the hearts of our generation. When we read farming articles, perhaps what we are looking forward to is something more profound and essential. We are eager to see our magnificent history repeated in another place, and we are also eager to see a preview of our yet-to-be-achieved future in another dimension. We hope that our ideas will be carried forward in the world, and we hope that mankind as a whole can leave the cradle and go further into the distance. We don't expect a perfect ending, we expect a bumpy but unswerving process. This is a good book that only modern China can produce. It is a condensation and portrayal of our history and practice. The so-called Chinese stories and cultural output do not lie in those forms, but in the core of Chinese people's empathy. At this point, Sword of the Dawn can already occupy its own place in the history of modern Chinese literature. I look forward to the day when it goes abroad and goes to the world. Sincerely thank you Big Eyeball.
Sword of the Dawn is really a very mature work. In my opinion, it mainly includes: 1. The maturity of narrative expression ability. After reading hope Ling's previous writing style, you can deeply appreciate Yuantong's progress. When comparing the works of other authors horizontally, you can also find Yuantong's excellent ability to control large-length medium and long paragraphs. 2. A group drama with many but distinct characters. Many supporting characters and supporting characters showed impressive wisdom and rationality. The author's attention to the logic of thinking prevented many plot directions from being abrupt. I have to say that there are quite a few smart people in this book. 3. A warm atmosphere that is both laughter and touching. Make people happy but not funny, give people serious but not heavy. 4. Exquisite plot and compact development. What Yuantong did here is very clever. I don't know if anyone else has written like this. After all, I don't read much online articles. What this story has to fight against is not a concrete enemy, but a natural rule, which allows the whole story to pass smoothly through the later stages. In most online articles I have read, the later stages inevitably become mediocre and boring, and a single long-term battle becomes the main tone. But in this book, the development of the story advances as the protagonist and others understand the rules of the gods step by step, and Yuantong reveals the puzzle bit by bit. When all the answers are revealed, the ending can be said to be a matter of course. This book still attracts me 98+% of the time, which is rare. Of course, I have also seen some people say that the lack of a big twist in the ending is a shortcoming. However, only short stories can be enhanced by big twists. It is difficult not to use big twists in a long novel of more than 6 million words without being funny. This is equivalent to overturning the author's painstaking foreshadowing. 5. Pattern. The core of this book is actually: anti-superstition and anti-feudalism; people's view of history; community of destiny; and romantic longing for the starry sky. It abandons the traditional personal heroic plot of a brave man fighting the devil, and highlights the power of the people. It is a very unique work in all aspects.
