Generals of the Great Song Dynasty.

Summary

Murong Qingchen initially doubts Zhao Zong Jing's capabilities, considering him a burden. However, Zhao surprises Murong with his enthusiasm and determination to take on a monumental task of digging canals to divert water from Bosten Lake, which would flood the enemy troops of Xi Zhi. They devise a strategy to transport troops via boats and block the river with cement-filled ships to redirect the flood towards Xi Zhi's forces. As the floodwaters rise unexpectedly, the Karakhanid troops initially mistake it for a blessing but soon panic as their camp is overwhelmed. The Song army, led by Murong and Zhao, capitalizes on the chaos, launching a fierce attack that decimates the Xi Zhi forces. After a decisive victory, Murong and Zhao celebrate their success, sending word of their triumph to the capital, marking a significant win for the Song Dynasty.
