Summary "海國春秋" by 汪寄 is a historical novel written in the early 21st century. This work delves into the historical tumult surrounding the fall of the Tang Dynasty, focusing on themes of loyalty, betrayal, and the tragic fates of its key characters. The narrative appears to center around various historical figures, such as Zhao Kuangyin, as they navigate the political upheaval of their time, making choices that ultimately shape the future of their country. The opening of "海國春秋" plunges the reader into the chaos of the late Tang Dynasty, highlighting the societal collapse and the rising power of warlords amidst fanfare and intrigue. It introduces a roster of characters, including the ambitious Zhao Kuangyin, who sees a chance for seizing power during a military expedition against invading forces. We also meet loyal figures like Han Tong and Li Jun, who represent the values of fidelity and honor, standing against the shifting tides of allegiance and ambition. As events unfold, tensions rise, leading to a climactic moment as Zhao is crowned emperor, while the loyal Han contemplates his duty to the fallen dynasty, which sets the stage for conflicts and moral dilemmas in this complex historical tapestry.
