Cang's Ramblings

Chapter 895 891. Comments on "Floating Life in the Late Tang Dynasty"

Hello everyone, I am Cang Yiwei.

Today I would like to recommend to you a historical novel that has been recommended by Sanjiang.

"Floating Life in the Late Tang Dynasty", Lonely Wheat Farmer, Level 4 author.

Category: History - Jin, Sui and Tang Dynasties.

【Introduction】

In 878 AD, the fifth year of Qianfu during the reign of Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty.

In this year, Wang Xianzhi died in battle in Huangmei. His followers elected Huang Chao as their leader, named him General Chongtian, and he moved to the south to fight.

In this year, Li Keyong killed Duan Wenchu, the military commander of Datong. The father and son launched a rebellion, and the Shatuo troops plundered Hedong.

This year, bandits rose up in large numbers in the south of the Yangtze River and captured many prefectures and counties.

This year, Henan suffered from drought and locusts for consecutive years, and the soldiers rioted.

This year, Emperor Xizong was busy with cockfighting and ball-playing, ignoring state affairs.

This year, the Tang Dynasty was in turmoil.

This year, Shao Shude, who traveled from the future, had his own ideals. He wanted to climb high and see the lights of thousands of homes; he wanted to travel the mountains and rivers and see the pastoral idyll.

He wants children to grow up healthy, he wants women to be free from humiliation, and he wants the elderly to have a good end.

He wants to end this chaotic world.

【Brief Comment】

Ostensibly, this is the only book to his name.

However, he is a level 4 author and obviously has other books, but they have been banned.

So I checked and found out that he had also written "Travel Through 1630: The Rise of South America", which was quite long and talked about the vast Pampas, the rich Brazil, the Caribbean where heroes competed... In the 21st century, 500 people accidentally traveled through South America, and everything started with survival.

I don't know why, but that book is no longer available. Normally, a book about South America should have a relatively broader scope.

Speaking of his new book, my first impression is that it's quite rigorous. Those who dare to write historical novels are all well-read, and those who dare to write rigorous historical novels are no ordinary people.

From the beginning of his writing, I was deeply impressed. He gave a summary of the development of musicians in history and a detailed description of the official positions in the late Tang Dynasty.

Of course, it is possible to list these knowledge points by looking up information, but he has digested and understood them, and uses a relatively simple and easy-to-understand way to reduce the burden on readers as much as possible. He is a truly thoughtful author.

The main story also has a unique perspective. The protagonist, Shao Shude, is a time traveler from a humble background who rises rapidly through the military thanks to his inexplicable archery skills.

However, unlike most other time travelers, he had no desire for war. He even opposed his family's desire to join the army.

Because the cruelty of the battlefield is not as described in novels, it is always full of opportunities.

On the contrary, life is the most fragile on the battlefield, and only the protagonist will encounter various opportunities and survive.

If possible, who wouldn’t want to be born in a peaceful and prosperous era!

However, due to its rigorous writing style, the book contains a lot of historical materials, making it quite difficult to read. Therefore, this book is suitable for readers who enjoy rigorous research and have a special interest in historical texts. Readers who like to read simple texts should avoid it.

【to sum up】

Writing is not easy, so cherish every moment.

I’m Cang Yiwei, and I’m here to promote “Cang’s Ramblings”.

Welcome to the paradise of book reviews.

【Cang's Ramblings】

This book was put on the shelves on July 16 and became a high-quality product on August 12, which is very fast.

What’s strange is that these recent batch of excellent articles are all published on August 12th?
But just as I expected at the beginning, it turned out to be a masterpiece.

Since the revision, it has become increasingly difficult to produce high-quality products. Without some skills, it is difficult to achieve.

Friends who haven’t seen it, hurry up and watch it!
