What's wrong with Qidian? It's either time-traveling to four or five-year-old children or forty or fifty-year-old men. Can't they at least let the characters transmigrate to young people? That would make it easier for the story to unfold and for readers to immerse themselves in the story.
In the second year of Chongzhen, Mao Wenlong was already in his fifties. . . . .
Perhaps historical authors are generally older, and they don't avoid many problematic points. A protagonist in his fifties? Are you out of your mind? Do you really think readers can empathize with the old man? And your starting point is way too high; I bet 300,000 words that it will be abandoned.
Mao Wenlong is just a warlord who wants to establish a separatist regime. He's over fifty years old and has absolutely no character highlights. There's no sense of empathy in him.
Who could stand watching this? Why not just travel back in time and become his son?
I've read many books by this author, but the data is always very stable; the author's skill level remains consistent and hasn't improved at all.
Mao was the most disgusting person of that era. Yuan Keli promoted and gave him important positions, but he repaid kindness with enmity. The court regarded him as a confidant, and he was the first general of that era to want to become a warlord. He was put in charge of fighting against the Later Jin, but he went to the rear to intimidate his own prefects. Yuan Chonghuan had no reason to blame Yuan Chonghuan for killing him, but he shouldn't have done it himself.
Another person trying to whitewash Mao Wenlong. Frankly, Mao Wenlong was just a warlord, nearly fifty years old, already at the pinnacle of military power. How could he possibly risk his life for the Ming Dynasty against the Qing? What value would he have if he lost all his troops? Even if Mao Wenlong had lived, Korea would still have been lost.
As expected, they wrote about Mao Wenlong, who is so old, and portrayed everyone else as fools and incompetent.
The author's writing skills are a bit lacking; it feels like a fantasy novel. Didn't Mao Wenlong also possess the Imperial Sword of the Tianqi Emperor?
