He is a scholar who studies the Song and Liao wars. He knows better than anyone else in this era what "General of the Yang Family" means - it means a family full of loyalty, and it also means a family full of blood and tears. In the battle of Golden Beach, seven sons went out to fight and six sons returned. Yang Ye was besieged, and Li Lingbei died for his country. Yang Yanyu died in battle. Yang Yanzhao guarded the border alone for twenty-one years.
The historical materials, those battle reports, and those tragic poems he had studied suddenly became extremely real at this moment.
So real that he became one of them.
"Pour me a glass of water." Yang Zhao said.
The boy hurriedly went to pour it. Yang Zhao sat up and looked around the room. There is a calligraphy hanging on the wall, which reads "Heirloom of Loyalty and Bravery" with vigorous writing. There was a pair of armor lying in the corner, polished to a high shine. There are several books stacked on the bedside - "Sun Tzu's Art of War", "Six Strategies" and "Three Strategies", all of which have signs of being read.
Yang Yanzhao is a studious young man.
Yang Zhao took a sip of water and forced himself to calm down.
What time is it now? What year was the Battle of Golden Beach?
He quickly combed through his memory. The memory of the original owner told him that it was now the third year of Yongxi's reign, 986 AD. Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao Kingdom came to power, and Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi had decided to make the Northern Expedition.
The Battle of Golden Beach - if he remembered correctly - took place this year.
