Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms: The Rise of Heroes
In 907 AD, after the fall of the Tang Dynasty, the Central Plains fell into a period of division and chaos in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.
In this turbulent era, heroic generals and wise monarchs have risen one after another, and that chaotic era of division and chaos and heroes has emerged.
Taking Li Keyong's legendary life as the starting point, it depicts the legendary story of how he raised troops in Jinyang, defeated the enemy forces from all sides with his outstanding military talent and indomitable fighting spirit, and finally established the Later Jin Dynasty and rebuilt the glory for the Jin Dynasty.
At the same time, it also narrates how Shi Jingjiao in the south, an ambitious general, gradually usurped the throne of Later Liang from a powerful minister and established the Later Tang Dynasty, but because of his overly strong personal desires, he caused dissatisfaction and resistance among the scholars, leading to his own destruction.
In the north, Li Cunmiao, who was both wise and brave, successfully defeated the Khitan, skillfully used stratagem and military strategy to establish the Later Jin Dynasty, and strengthened the unified power in the north.
Zhao Kuangyin, on the other hand, overthrew the Later Zhou Dynasty and established the Northern Song Dynasty through the Chenqiao Change, creating a new era of relative stability and prosperity.
In this era of self-improvement for men, the young Chengze emerged as a new force, and his fate was intertwined with the fate of historical figures such as Li Keyong, Shi Jingjiao, Li Cunqiao and Zhao Kuangyin, focusing on the rise and fall of these historical figures and how Chengze found his place in the troubled times, unfolding a magnificent historical picture.
