About This Novel
The mutiny of the six towns defending the old capital Pingcheng sounded the death knell of the Northern Wei Empire. The war brought bloody winds and endless darkness, but a faint light shone in a small border town. No one thought that the founder of the glorious Sui and Tang Dynasties would be born here! In the late winter of 524 AD, the Northern Wei Dynasty suppressed the rebellion in the six towns and moved the refugees to Hebei, but failed to take effective measures to ensure their livelihoods. This triggered a refugee uprising in the six towns. Ge Rong, the general of Huaishuo Town, launched an uprising in Zuoren City, which gradually became the largest refugee uprising in Chinese history. Yang Zhen sheltered refugees in Zuoren City, but was defeated by Ge Rong. Yang Zhen died in the battle, and his son Yang Zhong fled to Nanliang to seek refuge with Chen Qingzhi, the Marquis of Guanzhong. Little Monkey, a blacksmith who escaped from Zuoren City, traveled across the desert and vowed to forge the sharpest weapons. Yang Zhen's brother Yang Min led the people of Hebei to build a new dock wall on the north bank of the Yellow River: Fangtou dock. Three years later, Ge Rong, who had millions of troops, proclaimed himself emperor and was about to cross the Yellow River and attack Luoyang. Fangtouwu, which was at the ferry, was the first to bear the brunt and faced another catastrophe. Yang Zhong, who was living in Nanliang, gradually grew up during the war. On the order of Emperor Xiao Yan of Liang, he led 300 Liang troops to escort Beihai Princess Lu Taoer back to the north, garrisoned at Fangtouwu, shot and killed General Ge Rong Ren Bao, and assisted the people of Fangtouwu to repel the attack of Ge Rong's army.
