About This Novel
It tells that in 316 AD, Sima Ye, the last emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty, was captured, announcing the demise of the Western Jin Dynasty. In 317, Langya King Sima Rui proclaimed himself emperor in Jiankang, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty began. During the Eastern Jin Dynasty, internal and external wars continued. Externally, after the fall of the Western Jin Dynasty, the five ethnic groups of the Xiongnu, Xianbei, Jie, Di, and Qiang successively established many separatist regimes in the north. As a result, Zu Ti, Yu Liang, Yin Hao, Huan Wen, Liu Yu and others launched the Northern Expedition. Within the country, Sun En, Lu Xun and others rebelled one after another; Huan Xuan usurped the Jin Dynasty for a time; and Liu Yu established his prestige by suppressing the peasant army, quelling Huan Xuan's rebellion, and the Northern Expedition, and eventually replaced the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
