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,

Qing Dynasty Historical Fiction
The Qing dynasty was a special era: feudal autocracy in China reached its peak, yet the dynasty also went from prosperity to decline and became a target of foreign aggression. This list brings together historical novels about the Qing, giving readers a closer look at both its splendor and its sorrows.

For the Good Books That Never Give Up
This list features not only great books, but also underrated works whose authors keep going despite having little support. Too many books are genuinely good but don’t follow the mainstream formula, so they never gain much of a following. Of course, they still need to be well-written, and the authors can’t just drop them or leave them unfinished. For new authors, updating consistently is the bare minimum. If you leave recommendations, I’ll do my best to check them out. Please save and follow the

Every time I see racial conflicts, I feel that Qin Shi Huang was incredibly farsighted. Different cultures and customs create a kind of divide called ethnicity. This divide separates people. True unification only comes when the existing barriers are broken down, their differing beliefs destroyed, and everyone is forcibly integrated into one culture and one tradition.
The author's grasp of strategic warfare was poor, practically nonexistent. He consistently expressed reluctance to wage war against Britain. In reality, Britain was too far from China at the time, with extremely long supply lines. In the age of sailing ships, even getting there was difficult, let alone launching a campaign against China.
This book has only been published for a little over 10,000 words and already has many readers leaving comments to show their support. Thank you all for your support, but I won't reply to each one individually. It's really not easy to write a book about this period. All of Tiger's previous books about this period have disappeared, so I had to move the story's background to Southeast Asia.
This is just a ridiculous novel. They think they can dominate the world in just a few decades? Bullshit! How can you dominate the world with an accumulation of resources over a century? Even if a ship carried a hundred or so people to the Americas, it would take months. How many people could they transport in a year? Relying on national immigration programs would bankrupt the government in less than two years! Immigration still requires government policies and spontaneous private participation.
What a terrible novel. Honestly, the protagonist comes from a good family and could easily develop his own career, but he insists on becoming a servant. It's disgusting.
I just read the first few chapters. Did the Chinese in Southeast Asia in the 18th century also wear the golden braid like the Manchus? Overseas, the Manchus didn't have the authority to dictate who would lose their head for who would keep their hair. And why did the descendants of the Ming people who ventured to Southeast Asia in the early 15th and 16th centuries voluntarily shave their heads? Can someone explain this to me?
In my personal opinion, if one were to travel back to the Ming and Qing dynasties, after acquiring the mainland, one should seize the South Asian continent rather than crossing the sea to conquer the North American continent. Reason: First, there are only two most fertile lands in the entire Eurasian continent: East Asia (China) and South Asia (currently the world's most populous countries, China…
I've already subscribed to all the herbal supplements; please feature this post.
This work by the author remains, in my opinion, the best modern novel about the restoration of China. I've read other novels about Chinese people establishing their own nations in the Americas, Australia, South America, and even Africa, but they still fall short in terms of battle descriptions, world order, and the revival of China. I am grateful to the author for completing this work.
Why not unite the masses to establish a nation? Why insist on associating with the indigenous people?
