Sitting on the branch together with the pink blossoms that ends with a kiss. Ep. 1 2:12 ep. 20 38:00

Sorry but do you think that a general should sound like George C. Scott with his gravelly voice in the movie Patton?
His voice wasn't like that.

So Song Yi's General Zhenbei doesn't have to sound deep voiced. Generals are promoted for their brains.
And aggressiveness did not not necessarily make a good general.
General Ned Almond was kept and promoted because he was considered an aggressive fighter. During the Korean War, he ordered his units to individually rush to reach the Yalu river. The individual units were clobbered around the Chosin Reservoir. It is said that when it paid to be aggressive, he was aggressive. When it paid to be cautious, he was aggressive. Marine General Smith wrung a conssesion from General Ridway who replaced MacArther that his Marines would NOT serve under Ned Almond again. That lasted until Gen. Smith left Korea. By then the War was largely static.

Part of it is my interpretation of articles on Ming Dynasty military units because most don't show the xiaoqi fighting nor their weapons.
But thus is the Mandarin Duck Formation devised by Qi Ji Guang in his campaign against the Wako pirates. One source said that the formation wasn't used often outside of that campaign.

Wiki on Ming dynasty Military Units
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_of_the_Ming_dynasty#Weapons
The Ming founder Zhu Yuanzhang set up a system of hereditary soldiery inspired by Mongol-style garrisons and the fubing system of the Northern Wei, Sui and Tang dynasties.[12] Hereditary soldiers were meant to be self-sufficient. They provided their own food via military farms (tun tian) and rotated into training and military posts such as the capital, where specialized drilling with firearms was provided.[13]

These hereditary soldiers were grouped into guards (wei) and battalions (suo), otherwise known as the wei-suo system. A guard consisted of 5,600 men, each guard was divided into battalions of 1,120 men (qiānhù), each battalion contained 10 companies of 112 men (bǎihù), each company contained two platoons of 56 men (zǒngqí), and each platoon contained five squads of 11 or 12 men (xiǎoqí).

Legend of the Female General.
My tastes are broad. I'm enjoying this one and enjoyed the other. I liked Mai in Fighting for Love but didn't like how the treated the ML.
I'm a military nut and for the other drama looked at number of complaints.
Some confuse the drama general (acts like a super fighter/super hero) with a real general. Most dramas that focus on generals have them like a star player rather than the manager which they are. In both dramas, the enemy general is older, stockier and usually leads rather than fights. The young idol generals used here are used to attract a larger and wider demographics.
Ming dynasty units were grouped and divided like modern day armies. The smallest were 12 man xiaoqi squads. They would train and fight together as a unit and would not all have the same weapon.
Do you wish to add light or heat with your comment? Thank you. Take care.

Must be a fan of the other one.

I think at its most basic, you have a cuff to prevent things from sliding out.

Grittier, more passion.

Yes. Grittier and more passionate.

I guess it was first come, first serve. Her drop of blood was the first to enter his mouth. Any other blood after that won't affect him. Kinda like a sperm penetrating the second layer of the egg.

Good points.
I meant cooperate with the Yao spies. Perhaps others were working at other brothels like Yunge. Or maybe their own spies were working at brothels.
It is not unheard of for service people to put on skits in the field in the past as entertainment. Men would also dress as women. And she could have gone out with her guys and watched a performance. She could have had a natural talent.
Sorry have to go to work.
Thank you. Take care.

After taking Ninglan, she said to alert the spies in Lucheng. I wonder if those were Yao spies. Yunge was buried with Yanzi. Was there also an agreement for cooperation? At least she expected that Jin'an would be needing rescue. They were devoting their efforts to take him out so she might have anticipated that he would expend his energy.

The story seems a bit jerky and it seems like the FL is in a comedic drama while the ML is in a more serious drama. But I like this and follow it faithfully.

Fan of the actor for Mei Si since he was the best friend in Cute Programmer. Hope that he and Liu have a HE.

Thank you.
It's Huan Qin Hou Wo Shun Bian Huan Le Jiang Shan, Hen He Li Ba (2025) here.
It seems that there is only a partial intersection in our interests. Will check it out.

Qingchuan's Veil of Vengeance. Same director.Strong FL Faithful ML.

It was him. But this time he is a commoner. Think sheep dipped (a spy term)

Zhao is horrible. Pei was forced to be his blade. So he could never become the Emperor. But he chose well and supported her till the end. And there is an addendum with tik tok that gives us an HE. Pei comes back (sheep dipped, a spy term) as a commoner and becomes her consort.

Not the first drama where the 2ML can do things that the ML can't.
In Blossom
Fighting for Love
Treasures Around

Bullied by her Family but also treated with suspicion by Xiao Jue and his bodyguard. And the bridge scene... And the second to the last Imperial decree. Gut punches.

May I ask why you stopped? Was it due to how Gen. Li treated the women who were captured and r*ped? Or the machinations with Rufei and also with Chu Zhao? There is a reason why Li wasn't killed with the others.
There are some very moving couple moments ahead. There is a scene split in two where both shed tears for the same reason.
