Snow in Yanmen, so Hou Deng

In the twenty-seventh year of the Yongjing Dynasty, the emperor indulged in pleasure and the eunuchs disrupted the government. Xiao Lie, the general of Zhenxi, was deprived of military pay and framed by the imperial court when he was guarding Yanmen Pass. The Helan Dynasty in Beidi took advantage of the situation to raise troops. Xiao Lie made a blood alliance with the Helan Emperor Yelu Lie in a desperate situation. Later, he was ordered by the imperial court to imprison his clan and was forced to raise troops to "Qingjun's Side". In the process, Xiao Lie subdued Zhao Guogong, Zhao Yan and other loyal loyalists, integrated an army of 500,000, destroyed the city and forced the strongholds all the way to Luoyang, overthrew Dayong, established the Shuo Dynasty, and ascended the throne as emperor. After the establishment of the new dynasty, Helan broke the treaty and invaded northern Xinjiang. Zhao Yan and his three sons Zhao Heng, Zhao Lin, and Zhao Xiao led the army to the north. After thirteen military contests to determine the outcome, and an alliance negotiated before the battle, the border was finally stabilized. At the same time, the Zhao brothers each showed their talents, whether in literature or martial arts. They not only made achievements in their careers, but also gained family, country and marriage. The Shuo Dynasty finally ushered in the peaceful and prosperous age of He Qing and Hai Yan. The story takes "the game of loyalty and traitor, the feelings of family and country, and the iron blood on the battlefield" as the core, connecting the intrigues in the court, the fighting on the battlefield, and the love between children, with vivid characters and ups and downs of the plot.
