This is pretty much why you can't judge any general's performances against Kan Ki all that accurately.
99.99% of generals are invested in furthering the interests and agenda of their country. They care about waging war intelligently and sustainably. They recognise a battle is only a battle, and that it is not just about being able to fight the battle of the day, but that they must also to be ready and able to fight the battles of tomorrow.
Kan Ki holds not loyalty to king, country or even to his own men. He is not moved by reason or logic, he does not care about the long term pyrrhic impacts of his meat-grinder victories - all Kan Ki does is what pleases him. Cutting off the heads of his enemies pleases him, and that is reason enough for tens of thousands to die.
That is his advantage more so than his psychological warfare - his complete lack of restraint. He plays the same game - war - but he abides to none of the "rules".
Bars.
But what has Kan Ki won though? His ambush is crumbling as soon it fell.

Come on man you don’t think 4 chapters in a row of near death situations are kinda corny especially when you know Riboku is most likely not dying? It‘s not that Riboku living in itself is where the half half writing lies lol
Hara should’ve at least had Riboku throw some serious blows at Shuma and Ringyoku, but he does want some superficial hype of this supposedly life threatening ambush

rbk is already defeated yeah
100% defeated this arc
cuz what saving him now is the plot armos not once or 2 it's more than more than 5 times ?! in row ?!
it's clear What hara want to say through this writing ✍, he is telling the readers that rbk is done against he lost , but for plot and plot alone , rbk can't be done here.
kanki is not mc after all.

No, I do not. Lol. Bad writing is things like plot holes, story contrivances, inconsistent character personalities etc.
I ain't seeing that here. What I am mostly seeing here are bunch of whiners with a peculiar hate boner for Riboku and a hard on for unnecessary character deaths. Those aren't legitimate complaints.
People are complaining that the thing Maron stated in advance was going to happen and was going to be a major problem, has come to happen and is indeed a major problem. Who would have guessed? Lol.
Why does Hara specifically need to do this exactly? Is there some story contradiction I am missing here? A plot hole perhaps? What am I missing here?

I don't think anyone said it is bad writing and you're taking this way too seriously lmao
The last 4 chapters have been tedious nevertheless, Hara is going overboard with showcasing how helpless & fragile Riboku is against this situation. To the reader's eyes its even more corny knowing Riboku is not actually dying lol
There is in fact some inconsistency, Riboku is not supposed to be swatted in this manner by the likes of Ringyoku at least, unless you contribute that to Riboku being absolutely shook to the core, scared for his life and unable to function properly, which is absurd in itself since Riboku is one of the most experienced generals in the China.
Afterall this is the same man who sent post-Rinko Shin flying

Ri Boku is due some good luck. His has been pretty rotten ever since Bayou. Lost the Coalition War, lost Kei Sha at Koku You, lost the WZI campaign that cost him Earl Kou, CGR, Gyou’Un and Hou Ken in one battle, followed by losing Gyou, Retsubi and Ryouyou, and spending the next two years in prison, on the run and in exile.
Luck has been on Kan Ki’s side this entire arc. This ambush even working as well as it has is mostly luck.
It was luck the Seika commanders were ALL injured and Ri Boku couldn’t risk BNJ to stop Kan Ki escaping from his cage. It was luck that the Siege Unit happened to be hiding in the same forest as the HSA and GKA. It was luck that the HSA managed to Gian, which made Ri Boku susceptible to ambush.
If luck wasn’t an element, this arc would’ve ended at Gishi Plains.

Ri Boku put six months of planning into an ambush designed to exploit Kan Ki’s weakness - which Ri Boku learned and vowed to exploit two years ago.
Why bother replying to my post if you’re going to ignore the list of Ls Ri Boku has taken, only to make such a silly claim as plot armour?
Kan Ki has a 100% success rate with psychological warfare. Is that plot armour or nah?

No use debating who got lucky and when and where, it would never end lol
But in this current predicament, you can't say Riboku is surviving due to a specific formation
Kaine staying alive and spotting Koku'Ou just in time to take these 2 arrows is a random occurence
Futei and Bananji's son arriving ahead of time was also random
And now god knows what Hara will pull lol
But yeah there's no use debating luck, I was responding to GG Kanki for saying Riboku survived due to particular arrangements.

You could start with getting the facts right.
Kan Ki didn’t need Shin to beat Kei Sha. He was better than Kei Sha and Ki Sui put together. He only used the HSU to draw Kei Sha out and it nearly worked because Zenou would have taken his head, had if not been for Ki Sui arriving with Ba Tei.
Kei Sha then escaped, supposedly with the knowledge of Kan Ki’s weakness, before running into Shin and dying.
Kan Ki doesn’t care about how many lives he loses. He’s not interested in sustainable warfare or the long term interests of Qin’s military machine, doofus.
Regardless of what it cost him, Kan Ki owes his 100% win rate to his psychological warfare, which is far more contrived than Ri Boku’s wins and losses.
