When autumn comes on the eighth day of the ninth month, my flowers will bloom and all others will die. A thousand miles of rivers and mountains, a scene of grandeur: how many heroes have come and gone? Thrones are built on bones, imperial roads on yellow sand.

Combat strength analysis! This is just my personal opinion! Please don't be offended if you disagree! Discussion is welcome.
1. Ultimate Level: Lu Bu [The strongest in the lore] 2. Super Tiger: [No, it should take hundreds of rounds to defeat Lu Bu, and it will inflict some damage on Lu Bu upon being killed.] 3. Qiang Chaohu: [No, he fought Lu Bu to a draw for 50 rounds, then fell into a disadvantageous position.]
The image of Lü Bu in this work can be referenced from the design in "The Ravages of Time"—that is, Lü Bu's first appearance, with a handsome and heroic look wearing a golden crown, not the later image of him with his hair tied up, iron rings, and a scraggly beard. Moreover, the character of Lü Bu in this work is very shrewd and decisive in killing, which is also close to the setting of "not being human".
Let's compile a list.
1. In the original novel, 28 of the Heavenly Stars of Liangshan appeared, with 1 dying in battle and 13 joining the Liangshan bandits. 2. In the original novel, 44 of the 44 Earthly Fiends appeared in Liangshan, with 11 dying in battle and 22 joining the Liangshan bandits. 3. The bandit leader, Zhi Lei, has lost 24 men! 12 Remain; the immortal has lost 3 men! 15 Remain.
I feel that Lü Bu might not be able to defeat Yang Zaixing. He killed 100 Iron Pagoda soldiers, a record in official history, and escaped unscathed. Later, in the Battle of Xiaoshang River, he fought against 120,000 Jin soldiers with 300 elite cavalry, killing countless high-ranking Jin generals, including centurions, chiliarchs, and ten-thousand-household commanders. After his death, his body was riddled with two liters of arrowheads.
This is illogical! What kind of combat power does Lü Bu possess? Even if he transmigrated and gained 70% of his strength, he'd still be at the level of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, plus the Red Hare, which would give him Guan Yu-level combat power.
Analysis of the factions under Lü Bu's command
Lu Bu currently commands nearly two hundred men whose names are recognizable! It's impossible for them to be all harmonious! In my humble opinion, there are currently many factions within his ranks! 1. The first group is the so-called "veteran faction"! This can be considered Lu Bu's direct subordinates, formed from the time Lu Bu first transmigrated until he arrived at Liangshan.
A good novel whose title somewhat obscures its true value
I've read quite a few time-travel novels set in the Water Margin era, and while this book's pacing is a bit slow, it's truly a rare gem. In my opinion, it's second only to "The Water Margin Survival Guide" in its genre.
The author's writing style and concept are not bad, the story's logic is sound, and the author's research into Water Margin and history is quite thorough. The poor performance, besides the author being a newcomer, seems to stem from a major flaw: the author gradually shifted from writing a Water Margin fanfiction to a fanfiction of a Water Margin fanfiction.
Ghost God Lü Bu
I have two questions. First, has the recent recruitment of people for Liangshan been too deliberately arranged? Many of the conflicts of interest have deviated from the original story and have been arranged in a way that benefits Liangshan. Secondly, it feels like Lu Bu initially showed signs of growth, but now he seems increasingly rigid, especially in terms of strategy, magnanimity, and wisdom, where he doesn't seem to have developed at all.
