What do you mean exaggerate? How does one even exaggerate this feat? Chousha straight up killed and defeated Koshou, where is the exaggeration? You say it is us exaggerating the achievements of the Qin 6 and downplaying the Zhao 3, then you turn around and say Ousen defeated Riboku when Riboku literally had Ousen’s starving army trapped inside of a city with no food.
You say we exaggerate the achievements of the Zhao 3, yet all I see from you guys is using historical feats to invalidate what has been shown to us in the manga and claiming that Hakuki > Riboku because Bai Qi > Li Mu (which historians don’t even agree on anyway).
The manga: “Riboku is the strongest fucking General ever and it’s not even close”
You: “WeLl AcKsHuAlLy HiStOrIcAlLy SpEaKiNg-“
And then you do the opposite when it comes to examining examining historical feats.
History: Chousha defeats and kills Koshou straight up
You: “How exaggerative, Zhaogang brings this up as if it objectively proves Chousha > Koshou or something…”
Nah. Zhaogang isn’t exaggerating anything. It’s like others have said,
Riboku > the average great Heaven ~ the strongest Qin 6 > the weakest Qin 6.
Now as for manga Hakuki-> Hara actually severely downplayed Hakuki at Chouhei. Manga Hakuki and Manga Ouki got stalled out by Manga Renpa for two years straight up but historically this didn’t happen.
Historically Renpa and Ouki fought for two years, and Hakuki wasn’t given command until after Renpa was removed, at which point he won the battle. So historically Bai Qi never got stalled out by Lian Po while in the manga Renpa stopped Hakuki and Ouki both dead in their tracks.
I love Hakuki, I think he is fucking awesome but your bias towards Bai Qi, who yes legit is one of the most successful generals of all time, is causing you to grossly overrate Manga Hakuki who was directly stated to be weaker than Riboku.
Stats even seem to reinforce the Zhaogang’s case. Only four characters in the history of this manga ever received 100s in a stat category, two of them are Great Heavens. On top of that, the character with the highest stat total of all time (Renpa) is also a Great Heaven.
Hara thoroughly, thoroughly respects the Zhao 3, and it is not Zhaogang that is in denial right now…
