About This Novel
In the middle of the Tang Dynasty, Huaixi Town was a stubborn fortress of the feudal separatist regime at that time. (814 AD) After the death of Wu Shaoyang, the Huaixi Jiedu envoy, his son Wu Yuanji became independent. Emperor Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty sent troops to conquer Huaixi in four directions, but the offensive continued for three or four years to no avail. The first coach Gao Xiayu was defeated by Wu Yuanji. The second coach Yuan Zi was as fearful of the enemy as a tiger and never dared to fight Wu Yuanji. In this situation, many officials in the court believed that the war could no longer continue, but Minister Pei Du believed that Huaixi was like a malignant sore on the body that had to be removed. Emperor Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty worshiped Pei Du as prime minister and determined to continue the conquest of Huaixi.
