Story wise they're not very similar, but they are both historical dramas.
Battle of Changsha shows more historical elements, while Scarlet heart is more emotional.
They're both dramas that will take you on a ride of emotions.
Although in scarlet heart there is no War; it shows the mistreatment the fourth prince faced and how he climbed his way to the throne

I usually dislike war/action themed dramas, but Battle of Changsha is way more than just that. The drama revolves around the Hu family and their struggles. Like 1988, I came to care deeply for each of the characters. Both are more realistic/character-driven drama, though Battle of Changsha has a more serious tone to it. This was one of the first Cdramas I started to watch (bc I'm running out of Kdrama lol), but it was AMAZINGGG.
Police officer Pang Hong Mei amid the many obstacles created by U.S. and Jiang spy agents, rescued Ji Danyang, a patriotic scientist who returned from the United States from the enemy spy. She accompanied Ji Danyang to Lumen City to participate in the "Water Drop Project". Enemy special forces formulated a sabotage plan codenamed "Operation Rock" and concentrated their forces and tried to destroy the "Water Drop Project." Pang Hongmei and Ji Dan Yang fought a life-and-death battle with enemy agents in Lumen, thwarted the enemy's conspiracy, protected the "Water Drop Project" and finally achieved the expected success. The couple who went through the test of life and death, also realized their dreams and firm ideals.
They are set in different times and countries but they have some similarities. They both have the "indipendence" element against Japanese colonialization (in BoC more). Both have great (and mature ) romance and respect between the leads. They are VERY different but I feel like many people who watched one or vice versa will be satisfied. Both are great dramas and have great characters which you will be connected with.
The Mystic Nine ends at the same time the Battle of Changsha starts. The Mystic Nine takes place a few years before the first battle of Changsha and is centered around tomb raiding. While these two dramas are unrelated to each other in terms of plot and genre, if you want to watch something after The Mystic Nine that is in the same time period, then you should watch Battle of Changsha.
