The Third Han Empire in the Age of Steam

I can't understand how foreigners managed to invade a world with gods, demons, and advanced martial arts. I also can't understand how the Ming Dynasty lost to the Qing Dynasty without the Little Ice Age.

If you like wild boar tails so much, why are you writing anti-Qing articles?

I have a lot of grievances to express, but I don't know how to get to the bottom of them.

The protagonist is constantly being schemed against; after reading a dozen chapters, it's rather bland.

Another person who can't tell east from west, can't even figure out who his anti-Qing writings are for.

A fantasy story set in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, featuring magical plants and beasts, monster-slaying and leveling up. It's well-written, but it seems to be on the wrong channel.

The protagonist seems quite capable, but he deliberately leaves things to be done by the enemy later, even though he could do them himself. Is this just forcing the plot to continue?

The fighting is described through action; don't just shout "Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique" and call it a day. Besides, isn't shouting "Chaotic Cloak" better than that? Actually, it's quite well written.

I'll take a look, just for the sake of the protagonist being from the same hometown.
