Reading Drought Relief Station
[Pinned] My reviews are too vague or focus too much on the early parts of a book, and they’re not very well written! If you’d like me to revise a review, leave a comment. I really will replace or edit it if needed, no empty flattery! I’ve been reading web novels for 16 years, and I’m so tired of mindless garbage. Books that are already popular don’t need me to recommend them. I mostly recommend niche stories, and hope they won’t be overlooked! My main interests are historical and urban fiction,

Added a new option: “If I could recommend only five books” The five books that have stuck with me most are Super-Dimensional Wizard, Throne of Magical Arcana, The Primitive Wars, The Azeroth Adventure Guide, and Journey to Klimasha. Of course, Cultivation Chat Group and Lord of the Mysteries are classics too, but those two know far too much, so I won't recommend them. There's also A Scholarly Gathering with My Lich Colleagues, which I've been reading lately. The author hasn't written enough yet

If this book were actually written as Lian Po defeating Bai Qi, it would be nothing short of pure fantasy that completely disregards the facts.
The author seems to lack a strategic vision, relying entirely on contrived victories for the plot. All the victories feel forced and illogical, lacking any real basis. Crucially, the author's decision to prioritize the conquest of Wei is laughable. Of the seven Warring States, five could have easily defeated Wei, but Zhao couldn't.
Does the author think the State of Yan is stupid?
Why did the Yan state not attack Zhao during the Battle of Changping in history? The result of doing so would be that Zhao would make peace with Qin, and then the 400,000-strong army would turn around and attack Yan! The State of Yan sacrificed its own interests to help the State of Qin obtain better terms for peace negotiations. Why did the Yan state not attack Zhao during the Battle of Handan?
Forgive my bluntness, but Lian Po was indeed no match for Bai Qi. Considering both his battle record and his opponents, Lian Po's title as one of the Four Great Generals was rather undeserved. From the early stages of the Battle of Changping, when he was driven out of Shangdang by Wang He, and even after receiving reinforcements, he didn't launch a counterattack, it's no wonder that the Zhao state wanted to replace him.
For those who are prejudiced against Zhao Kuo, I suggest reading "The Poor Man's Five Thousand Years of History," which portrays him very profoundly and objectively. He was simply a man who fought desperately in dire straits, and the fact that he risked his life to the point of running out of food for over forty days without mutiny makes me think we should admire him.
Prince Dan succeeded to the throne as King Zhao Xiaocheng. Since he was established at a young age, the Queen Mother Zhao Wei took charge. King Zhao Xiaocheng should be in his teens, and he appears as a thirteen-year-old son in Chapter 16. . . 😅 King Zhao Xiaocheng couldn't have already made a man when he was less than 10 years old!
Qin Shi Huang's name was Ying Zheng! Although according to the surname rules of the pre-Qin era, men were referred to by their clan name (氏), so Qin Shi Huang, being of the Ying clan and Zhao clan, should be called Zhao Zheng. But this is only a superficial understanding. You need to know not only the rules but also the social realities of the time.
Ignore those who say they don't like reading historical novels from the Hundred Schools of Thought period. These aren't light novels; you can check out the other novel, *The Strange Romance of the Three Kingdoms*. Stick to your own beliefs.
Battle of Changping
This battle was divided into three phases! The first phase was the struggle between Han and Qin for Shangdang. Han clearly conceded defeat, ceding territory to both Qin and Zhao, thus provoking direct conflict between the two powerful states. Whether intentional or unintentional, I believe Han did it deliberately.
The protagonist has an invincible aura of stupidity, an overpowered cheat ability, and can conjure grenades, explosive packs, and chest armor with a snap of his fingers. His subordinates can even travel a thousand miles a day. Awesome! (Voice cracks) Hand-crafted breastplate!! Haha!
