Broken Array: Jingmeng in the Southern Tang Dynasty

In 907 AD, the Tang Dynasty, which was at its peak, fell. In the following more than 50 years, the Central Plains experienced five dynasties - Liang, Tang, Jin, Han, and Zhou. These "Five Dynasties" all inherited the names of the previous dynasties, and later generations made distinctions and called them Later Liang, Later Tang, Later Jin, Later Han, and Later Zhou. Dynasties are changing like a revolving door in the north, so naturally the south will not be idle either. Some Jiedu envoys separated themselves from each other and established their own kingdoms, establishing nine dynasties: Wu, Tang, Wuyue, Dashu, Shu, Min, Chu, Han, and Jingnan. There was also a Han Dynasty in Shanxi in the north, which gave rise to the Ten Kingdoms. Many of the country names of these "Ten Kingdoms" were copied from previous dynasties. In order to distinguish, they are called Southern Wu, Southern Tang, Wuyue, Qian Shu, Hou Shu, Fujian, Southern Chu, Southern Han, Jingnan, and Northern Han. The fertile land in the south of the Yangtze River under Zhao Rui's feet is the Southern Tang Dynasty. The country is still called "Tang". He regards himself as the successor of the Tang Dynasty. He lives in the south of the Yangtze River and survives in the wars of troubled times. Zhao Rui knew that to save himself, he had to save Southern Tang!
