This is outrageous! What's going on with the author's books? Now they're even bringing several women along on war marches? What kind of weird fetish and writing style is this? These aren't women, they're practically appendixes growing on their bodies! There's a line in the Oasis Lord's novel, which is also a Mount & Blade system novel, that says, "Mount & Blade doesn't need women."
I've sorted out the plot where the protagonist enters Shandong, and I feel that even the author himself can't quite remember the details he wrote. The protagonist departs from Yangzhou to return to the capital to report on his duties, while also escorting the Lin family mother and daughter to the capital.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, rebels guarded the country's gates, while pirates died for the state. Li Dingguo and his followers initially rose up because they couldn't survive; they wouldn't have supported the Ming Dynasty if the Qing Dynasty hadn't been so corrupt.
It has this feel of a historical fiction drama. A protagonist with superhuman strength; a fortune teller who can see the emperor's aura; it evokes the feeling of those historical fiction dramas from the 80s and 90s.
I thought it would be bad at the beginning, but it got better later on. In the author's previous novel about the late Ming Dynasty, the romance was a major drawback, but everything else was excellent. I hope this one won't be dragged down by the romance.
Is he going to cheat on his wife again?
It seems Mrs. Lin can't escape this situation. Why does she have such a penchant for having affairs? That's why I said your romantic scenes were a disaster.
I couldn't understand it starting from chapter 74.
The surprise attack on Shenyang, taking advantage of the fact that the Manchus were out on a major campaign, meant the city would be easily captured. However, the strange thing is, the protagonist's purpose in launching this attack is unclear.
Hilarious! Bars at night are as safe as home, while subways during the day are fraught with danger. In this context, it would be: In the war-torn Dengzhou and Laizhou, safety was paramount, while in the peaceful rear areas of Yangzhou and Xuzhou, danger lurked everywhere.
Awesome
In other books, if the female protagonist has a lot of contact with the male protagonist, people will make a fuss, feel uncomfortable, or laugh at the author for writing a dog. That's amazing! Readers rushed to explain to the author that it was reasonable for the protagonist to be accompanied by several women who flirted with him during his forced march to war.
Didn't you already have the Mount & Blade system? Why are you taking the military examination? Do you really enjoy being a servant of the Zhu family that much?
