Liaodong Iron Cavalry

In the winter of the eighth year of Wanli, when Nurhaci scattered his grandfather's ashes into the Hun River with his own hands, Li Chengliang was on the school field a hundred miles away and shot an arrow through the throat of the rebel general. The iron-cold land of Liaodong has always believed in only one law: the weak eat the strong.

This is an epic about generals, cavalry and beacons, and also a tragic song about loyalty, ambition and family inheritance. See how the Li family father and son used their passion and strategy to write the most profound and colorful strokes on the frontier of the empire, and also see how they personally
