Steer Clear of Toxic Reads, Focus on What Makes Each Story Special (Especially Fanfiction)
I've been reading on Qidian for twelve years. I don't give books ratings or stars ⭐ because everyone has their own tastes. I focus on what makes each book distinctive. The ones on this list have all found their own niche. Reading lets us immerse ourselves in worlds others have created and feel for their characters and stories. A book that suits your taste is hard to find. I read widely and I'm picky, so I'll collect any interesting books I come across here. I hope you find something you like. I

The comments section is a bit outrageous.
Anyone who has actually read scholarly works on the history of the War of Resistance against Japan (note: historians) would not claim to be whitewashing Chiang Kai-shek or that he wanted to become a second Wang Jingwei... Don't take what you learn from short videos as fact.
Why is bayonet fighting emphasized?
Why did our army always bring up bayonet fighting and emphasize it during the War of Resistance Against Japan? Personally, I believe that under artillery fire, only close-quarters combat can inflict effective damage; otherwise, you'll just be easy targets. If you can't break through the artillery barrage, bayonet fighting is the only option.
I just want to complain about one thing: when the main character gives examples, he keeps talking about how things were during World War I. Before Germany's blitzkrieg against Poland, there was no concept of World War II, so where did World War I come from? If you're going to talk about World War I, what are you going to say when someone asks who fought whom in World War II?
Would being reborn as a young marshal be the best start to the war against Japan?
I suggest the author stop relying on wishful thinking and focus on building an arms factory. The War of Resistance against Japan wasn't something that could be won with a couple of fantasies of divine command. There were countless military geniuses in the various political parties of the Republic of China who were far more capable than you.
It was discovered that the author had some misunderstandings about the civil engineering department.
To be honest, in the early stages of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the engineering and fortification work of the domestic army was not very good. On the one hand, there was a lack of professional training, but more importantly, there was a lack of attention to it. The 18th Army was no exception.
When an army wants to retreat, even if civilians kneel down and beg you, it's useless.
Battle reports can be deceiving, but the front lines won't lie.
The book is nearly a million words long, featuring a protagonist with special abilities and time travel, and numerous battle achievements. However, the actual battle situation is similar to, or even worse than, historical records. Can such battle reports be trusted?
Excuse me, I wanted to ask if this book includes Chiang Kai-shek?
I feel that "even if you're afraid of death, you must resist Japan" is more moving than yours.
