Web Novel Picks: Not for Beginners, Off the Beaten Path
Not beginner-level fiction. Personal taste, entirely subjective. I'll score each work based on my preferences, out of 10. The books on the rankings are pretty good, but most put commercial success first. They're like junk food: great the first time, but too much gets cloying, and they don't have much to offer beyond passing the time. These days I mostly browse at random, and I'm not as free as I used to be, so finding a book that suits my taste is pretty rare. I've read every book I review. I

At first, he took a steady and methodical approach, but later he fawned over historical figures.
The initial military and political overthrow of Qin was logical, but the author's subsequent mindless sycophancy towards historical figures only demonstrates ignorance and renders the novel meaningless. The author doesn't trust the generals they've trained but instead fawns over historical figures—does the author even have a brain?
Actually, I don't think the Qin Dynasty's laws were excessive, so I don't feel any connection to them at all.
I used to be a big fan of Qin, but after learning about Shang Yang's five methods of governing the people, I came to my senses. The people are weak, exhausted, humiliated, and poor. How should I put it? It feels like they're treating their own people as enemies to be guarded against.
The author suggests that Wu Guang shouldn't be the first to lead an uprising. As the saying goes, "The nail that sticks out gets hammered down." Historically, the only successful leader of an uprising is Liu Xiu (even though he wasn't the true leader and later relied on the support of powerful clans).
I haven't even read the book yet, but the comments are hilarious.
After reading the comments, I've concluded that they're all geniuses who would have been enlightened rulers if they returned to ancient times 😁😁😁. They're all spouting grand theories, claiming they'd be ruthless figures surpassing Qin Shi Huang, Emperor Wu of Han, and Emperor Taizong of Tang if they went back to ancient times.
Stop being so naive, you old Qin folks. You think Qin laws weren't strict or harsh? Where did the system of collective punishment come from? Most of your life was spent in service. Shang Yang himself knew what his laws were like. Why did he flee to Wei the moment he heard there was trouble?
That's ridiculous. Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu were like father and son. Even if Xiang Liang became king, why would he need to be wary of Xiang Yu? Let alone the fact that Xiang Liang doesn't have a biological son to inherit his mantle, even if he did, he wouldn't be in such a hurry to suppress him, since child mortality was too common in those days.
Given the recent spamming and harassment in the comments, we will be increasing the posting limit based on fan value 😟. There's nothing we can do, everyone. Just because something doesn't go his way, he keeps posting from alternate accounts. I don't know if he's a competitor or some born internet tycoon.
The ending was utterly ridiculous. If the author liked Han Xin so much, they shouldn't have introduced him at the very end.
Think about it carefully. The protagonist joins Chen Sheng in the Dazexiang Uprising, then travels north alone to attack Zhao, recover Yan, and finally, while Zhang Han is fighting against Xiang Liang and Chen Sheng, launches a surprise attack on Guanzhong to destroy Qin. Afterwards, he destroys Xiang Yu and Qi.
To praise or glorify the Qin Dynasty, you must accept the following facts to prove your point: 1. You can only speak well of the "adults," never badly. 2. You are under constant surveillance by your friends, parents, and even children. 3. You are confined to one place and cannot move around. 4. You are subject to collective punishment! 5.
