I hope the author will wipe out the entire Sima family later on, leaving no one alive. The Sima family doesn't deserve to live.
Sima Yi farted in the Luo River. His infamy will last for eternity.
Here's a side note: many readers say that it's unrealistic to develop gunpowder and grenade launchers at this point in time. Actually, it's really a very simple thing. Let me put it this way: I'm a post-70s generation from Liaoning in Northeast China, and the things I talk about in my book are all toys from our childhood. Can you believe it? We made our own gunpowder back then.
It's fine as a light novel, but it's unreadable if you're thinking too much.
Regarding grenade launchers and artillery, I have two questions. First, how would you solve the problems of rifling and seamless barrels? Ancient blacksmiths could make farm tools, but expecting them to be mass-produced by hand is clearly illogical. The same applies to hand grenades.
First of all, I would like to thank every reader for their support and encouragement. The protagonist of this book, Zhang Zheng, is someone who received education from his elders from a young age. He has always carried in his bones the spirit of resistance and fighting spirit passed down from the old man.
After reading the book reviews, I roughly understand. So it turns out that firearms were used. Then it can be easily swept away, right? What else is there to see?
I haven't read the novel yet, but judging from the title and synopsis, the protagonist's base is the Beggars' Army. If he were to expand into economically developed regions with strong aristocratic clans, he would inevitably encounter the same problems as Gao Huan.
I thought it was going to be a good historical novel, but it turns out to be just another gunpowder-filled story. A work that doesn't keep up with the times is destined to fail.
Don't bring out firearms, it will ruin the immersion. If you play with firearms, it won't be fun.
I stopped reading when I saw the gunpowder-making part; it's just the typical wish-fulfillment novel trope, haha. I think I should just start with cultivating immortality, mastering martial arts, and conquering the world—that would be so awesome!
