Features: Endless tales of loyalty and treachery, endless songs of the Yang Family's patriotic spirit; history may be interpreted by people, but justice lies in the hearts of the righteous. The Yang Family story, sung for thousands of years, has moved and inspired generations of Chinese people. Zhao Kuangyin's coup at Chenqiao, establishing the Great Song Dynasty, could not conquer the strategic stronghold guarded by Yang Jiye. After several twists and turns, Emperor Taizong of Song valued Yang Jiye as a fine general, and Yang Jiye surrendered to the Song ruler. Under Yang Jiye's command were numerous sons, including the seven sons and eight heroes, each brave and loyal, with outstanding military achievements, earning the admiration of Emperor Taizong. The treacherous official Pan Renmei plotted to usurp the Song Dynasty, allowing his son to set up a wrestling competition to seize the command, killing countless heroes. The fierce Yang Qi Lang intervened in the competition, beheading Pan Renmei's son Pan Bao, forging a deep enmity with Pan Renmei. When Emperor Taizong was trapped in Youzhou City, the Yang Family rescued the monarch, fighting heroically at Jinshan Beach, suffering heavy losses and writing a tragic saga. Yang Jiye was trapped by Li Lingbi, and Yang Qi Lang descended the mountain to seek reinforcements. Pan Renmei seized the opportunity to take revenge, shooting Yang Qi Lang with arrows, leading to his death. Yang Linggong refused to be captured and humiliated, crashing into Li Lingbi and dying with honor. Only Yang Yanzhao, the sixth son, remained in the Yang Family, while the rest were either killed, injured, or even scattered to foreign lands. Yang Liulang accused Pan Renmei of acting out of personal vendetta. The Night Minister Kou Zhen presided over a secret trial of Pan Renmei, clearing the Yang Family's name. The Yang Family's generations were loyal and patriotic, fighting bloodily on the battlefield to protect their homeland. Mu Guiying fought against Hongzhou, capturing Liulang and marrying Yang Zongbao. She broke the Heavenly Gate Formation, showcasing the spirit of female warriors. She Taijun led 12 widows to campaign in the west, defending the border and safeguarding the nation. The Yang Family story is the most widely sung and deeply known in Chinese history, familiar to all, young and old. The loyal and righteous tales of four generations still captivate audiences today, stirring emotions and leaving a lasting impression. The entire set consists of 60 volumes, a fine example of old Chinese comic books, with vivid characters and compelling stories, making it a great choice for appreciation and collection.
