This book is a popular history book. Professor Fan Xuehui used the 60th year of the founding of the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1020) as a time limit to show readers the wonderful fragments and vivid details of the founding history of the Northern Song Dynasty, and analyzed the key points and important links in the historical development of the Song Dynasty. The author combines academic research results with his own research, and uses popular and interesting language to tell you about this period of history. This is not a "copying of historical materials", but a rather in-depth analysis. For example, in the "Chenqiao Mutiny", the author restored the entire process of the incident, especially the relationship between the characters, and analyzed the position and role of each person in the incident. The degree has reached a perfect combination of the popularity of reading and the credibility of historical research.

Starting from first-hand historical materials such as "Song Hui Yao Collection", it conducts in-depth research on the emergence and evolution of the three-yamen military system in the two Song Dynasties, the establishment and functions of the three-yamen and their relationship with local military horses, the establishment of the three-yamen offices, changes in military strength and horse administration, the three-yamen armies and the war in the Song Dynasty, and the status, qualifications, selection and quality of the three-yamen-military army.
