I’m a Rebel in the Late Han!

Feudal dynasties, agrarian civilizations, with their high walls, abundant grain reserves, and centralized power, were stronger than short-lived regimes. In extreme cases, their military-industrial complexes allowed for massive troop production; a single province could spawn hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

The writing is getting worse and worse; one chapter on "recruiting" has already been two chapters long. They're going to put it on sale and charge a fee, are they really not afraid of it flopping?

After reading dozens of chapters, I really can't read it without Zhang Fei being killed. Everything else is secondary, but you already know he'll become your enemy, so why not eliminate him sooner? And what about Liu Bei and Guan Yu? If Cao Cao could be reborn, he would definitely kill Liu Bei.

Guan Yu refused to surrender no matter what, so what was the point of keeping him alive? What if he couldn't escape one day? Wouldn't that be leaving a future problem? At worst, we could just give him a proper burial.

How should the protagonist interact with the imperial court after conquering Youzhou?

The initial intention was good—to speak out for the people and save the common folk—and it brought together a group of civil and military officials without family connections. Unfortunately, the writing and dialogue were child's play; they need more experience.

I've been reading Romance of the Three Kingdoms novels for over ten years, and in 100 out of 100 books, it's about Dong Zhuo raiding the capital, digging up ancestral graves, and sleeping with concubines. In 1000 books, maybe two or three wouldn't have that.

In ancient times, people were addressed by their courtesy names (字). Unless they were wild men from the mountains or servants, most families with some influence had a courtesy name. Calling someone by their given name was considered disrespectful. However, in the book, everyone is addressed by their given name, even the protagonist doesn't have a courtesy name...

Why do books seem to address people by their given names and courtesy names? At the very least, historical texts would address people by their courtesy names; one should at least know their courtesy names.

When discussing rebellions at the end of the Han Dynasty, don't mention that the Liu family was involved. I won't even read any rebellions claiming to be related to the Liu clan or anything like that, trying to establish an unbroken imperial lineage. I'm not interested in rebellions that claim only members of the Liu family can succeed, or that other rebellions will be doomed.
