About This Novel
At the end of the Tang Dynasty, dozens of military entities existed in China, namely the Five Dynasties: Later Liang, Later Tang, Later Jin, Later Han, and Later Zhou; there were also countries that competed for the Central Plains and were crowned kings and emperors. They were either united or separated from the Five Dynasties, but did not belong to each other. They were called the Ten Kingdoms: Wu, Southern Tang, Wuyue, Min, Chu, Jingnan, and the former Shu, Hou Shu, Southern Han, and Northern Han. They constantly competed, killed, annexed, split, rose, and fell... Later, Zhao Kuangyin, who was born as a soldier, took advantage of the opportunity of being in charge of the young country's suspicion to create the Chenqiao Rebellion and wear a yellow robe. Then he performed a trick of drinking wine to release military power, which consolidated the Zhao family's regime and gradually unified the country.
