The author clearly has never been in a fight. The battle scenes he writes are incredibly simplistic. Things like vomiting upon seeing a corpse or screaming in pain immediately after having half an ear sliced off by a flying axe. Seriously, in real combat, those minor injuries are practically imperceptible under the influence of adrenaline.
It feels like they're showing off their intelligence. It's really strange why the protagonist always fails in his night raids, never managing to cause a commotion on the enemy camp. The most ridiculous thing is that they go on a night raid in a torrential downpour and still get spotted... I was completely dumbfounded.
People in this universe vomit all the time, and they vomit every time someone dies. Luckily, our universe isn't like that, otherwise cleaning up vomit at a car accident scene would be far more disgusting for the cleanup crew than cleaning up any other place.
The scene with the Ming army, where the protagonist is forced to become less intelligent, is unbearable to watch. Knowing his superiors are plotting to kill him, he still tries to gain rank through military merit. The story of the Southern troops' triumphant return from aiding Korea only to be massacred is also widely known in modern times. Instead of striking first, he goes looking for trouble with the Qing army.
Sixty-odd people against over two hundred, and the enemy had over a hundred cavalry. Even if you were all armored, you still had eighteen new recruits in your team. How did you win? Were the enemy all pigs? Do you know what a charge of over a hundred cavalry means? If you'd exchanged for abilities or something in the system, I wouldn't have anything to say.
Just popping in to say hi, otherwise you'll all think I'm dead. 😎😎

It's written in a lively style, but I don't understand it. What's the point of this so-called system dragging this group of people to ancient times? After fighting and struggling for so long, history hasn't changed at all. It's like a sightseeing tour group just came.
That's ridiculous! Killing tens of thousands of people in half a month? Unless they had guns and cannons and plenty of ammunition, it's simply impossible. The plot is too far-fetched.

As the title suggests, readers who want a minor role are welcome to leave their personal preferences. This includes name, code name, basic personal information, special skills, and desired team role (sword and shield, archer, scout, spearman, etc.). Just to clarify, the setting should be a bit down-to-earth, because this is a story about ordinary people. Based on the reasonable settings, the author will try to arrange the registration time for extras as much as possible.
