The Magic Weapon of the Country-stealing Hero
About This Novel
At the northern end of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, in Tongzhou, known as the "Dragon Head" and "Little Yanjing" of the canal, there is a Randen Buddha Relic Pagoda built in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, 300 meters away from the river. The brick tower is an octagonal thirteen-story brick tower with dense eaves. It cuts through the fog and clouds, and has the potential to soar into the sky. There are 2,248 hanging copper bells, which is the most in the world and the first of the eight scenic spots in ancient Tongzhou. The shadow of the tower is reflected, the waves are rippling, and the white sails shuttle across the river with green willows. It is not only poetic and picturesque, but also a navigation mark at the upper end of the canal. Therefore, there is a famous saying that "a tower shadow identifies Tongzhou". On August 12, the 26th year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty (September 5, 1900), armies from Britain, the United States, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia, Austria and other countries invaded and occupied Tongzhou. The sound of gunfire and the sound of horses neighing came from far and near, fire broke out in Tongzhou, and foreign soldiers and horses fell from the sky like demons.
