Feels similar as in-
1. Female lead disguising as a man
2. Fl being a powerful general with military achievements.
3. Fl (sort of) betrayed by someone she trusted
4. Change of identity

novel-wise, kinda same: was previously married in prev life, wrongfully killed, ml and fl are both cunning strategies. they also exist in the same universe! both from the warring states period:
TLFG - The State of Wei
TD - The State of Yan
but TD is a VERY slow burn romance. they didnt even had that much of an interaction until like c84 or something. but still, check it out!

Both series have a strong female lead who’s good at martial arts and also clever strategies. Male leads are also on par and play supportive characters and have their own arcs/secrets. Love Legend of Fu Yao and if Legend of the Female General stays similar to its novel counterpart then it definitely worth my hype.
