About This Novel
From central Hunan to western Hunan, the Xuefeng Mountains stretch for thousands of miles. The folk customs of this place have been fierce since ancient times. According to historical records, Yang Zaixing, the Song Dynasty general who charged into the Hu formation with 300 elite troops, and Lan Yu, the Ming Dynasty general Lan Yu who leveled Mobei with 100,000 cavalry, all came from here.
