Chapter 44 - Valued By The Editor-In-Chief

In fact, themost famous military literature website in China belongs to Iron Blood Website!This is a military forum founded by a magazine with a special background, amilitary magazine. It has gathered a large number of veterans and militaryenthusiasts since its inception ten years ago!

Today,however, the fans of Iron Blood were a little stirred up by a novel publishedby their friend Amway who published a novel under the military section of the QiyueLiterature Website, which they disdain reading at. (TN: The fans are disdain toread the novels under the military section because of the reasons below, andnot the novel that was published.) (TN: No idea who is Amway)

The novelsin the military section of Qiyue Literature Website are more on fictional, and arenot realistic anymore. Those best-selling novels are often mixed with variousloopholes, and all kinds of wrong logic.

This makes themilitary fans who like to study the real data of military and weapons feeldisdainful. It is as absurd as a specialized professor of history, who hasstudied the history of the Spring and Autumn Warring States period for decades,seeing a novel that wrote papermaking was invented by Confucius.

But thisbook "Soldier Assault" was different. They were so fascinated by it,and many weapons and data were accurately described. Yang Yi has revised thenames of some weapons and tanks that appeared in the past, base the memory of theprevious Yang Yi.

"Theauthor must have been a soldier and had a similar experience!" Manyveterans from rural areas burst into tears when they read the first fewchapters and turned to Amway for more.

However, thecomments below the novel are not so friendly!

After all,the audience of online novels was too wide. From the "old boys" intheir 30s and 40s to the primary school students who have just started readingnovels, the successful people in the business world and the rich secondgeneration. There are also migrant workers who earn hard-earned money and readnovels just to get rid of loneliness.

The slowrhythm and deep storyline of "Soldier Assault" made some readers who wereaccustomed to fast paced literature unable to adapt!

What sticksin the minds of some pleasure-seeking readers is the protagonist's "cowardice"!

"Howcan there be such a cowardly protagonist? I really can't stand it!"

"I haveread a lot of thing in my life, but this is the first time I saw that one hadto be pitied before becoming the protagonist in the army! I dropped it afterreading two chapters."

"Surrenderingat the sight of a tank's barrel? Is Xu Sanduo still going to stay in the militarycamp? How can the author write such a rubbish protagonist?"

Yes,everyone is used to the online novel protagonist that has an air of arroganceand is crazy good. Now, seeing a worthless protagonist, they really feel thattheir three views have been washed away. (TN: Air of arrogance - view oneselfas better than everyone else. Three views: world outlook, values and outlook onlife.)

Of course,it is not that there are no readers who like this novel. The readers who arepatient and like this style of writing like Mu Yucheng are not in the minority.They are also arguing according to reason. What's unexpected is that those whodon't give much reward at ordinary times are now willing to pay the author and encouragethe author to write well.
