@HCBaillty :) I've been a fan of yours for a lot of years, and I just feel like commenting this video (it could be whatever video you posted) You're enormously good at what you're doing with your LPs. I love to watch them, and I would like to say: "Keep up the good work!" Thank you for you!!

So, what can I say about today's episode in relation to the novel? 0:51 Actually it's "Xing Daorong." He features in one chapter of the novel. Shortly after Liu Bei re-captures Jingzhou, he sets out to acquire nearby provinces to secure his foothold. Xing Daorong is a warrior, described as "a top general who can withstand legions," working for the governor of the first province Liu Bei marches on. He attacks them but is captured by Zhao Yun. Liu Bei wants to execute him, but Zhuge Liang instead offers to let him go if he'll capture the governor's son (also apparently his top general). He pretends to assent, but in actuality sets an ambush. It's going to be a long time before anyone gets one over on Zhuge Liang*, though, and he ends up getting outmaneuvered, then stabbed to death by Zhao Yun. 4:01 Cao Hong has been with Cao Cao at least since the campaign against Dong Zhuo, risking his life at one point to save him from Lu Bu. Back under Episode 14 I mentioned a guy named He Man purely because his name was He Man, and said he died by the end of the paragraph. It was Cao Hong that killed him. Around this point in the story, he is indeed put in charge of defending Yiling, although it's the Southland forces that capture the city from him rather than Liu Bei's. 4:03 Niu Jin is only mentioned around this time as a subordinate to Cao Ren. He is assigned to assist Cao Hong with Yiling. The last time he's mentioned, he's assigned to the vanguard of a formation that ends in disaster, so presumably he does not live happily ever after. *Unless you count Liu Qi, as described under Episode 19.

[@MattBrzozowski]

HCBailly are you ever going to play Suikoden?

[@IcemanSlim69]

im here early again! Woot!

[@GeoffreyEG]

If you insist on making 10 min videos, maybe you cut out the admin stuff like selling items and rearranging things and people. Or just combine 2 of your videos into 1 …

[@Thievishaura]

Leave it all in! Maybe you mean to say you wish there was more content? Cause I do think 10 minutes a day isn't enough :(

[@GeoffreyEG]

@ yes. I said that in many previous comments that you couldn’t have seen. But yes, longer videos.

[@HCBailly]

If there's a lot of shopping, I could make an episode a bit longer. In this case, we had a couple battles and plot progression, so I thought this length was sufficient.

[@GeoffreyEG]

@ idk what KZbin algorithms are telling you, but no one wants short videos. That’s what shorts are for. Most responses I’ve seen look for 20+ mins minimum for a video like this.

[@HCBailly]

@@GeoffreyEG I have no knowledge of algorithms or shorts. I just make what I want and upload it here. If others enjoy it and it generates revenue, so much the better.

You rock, HCBailly! 😎🪨👍
