The warrior Lan Ling, also known as Gong, was a filial son and a famous civil and military man in the late Northern Qi Dynasty. He was granted the title of Prince of Lanling County, General, Prince Consort, Shangshu Ling and other titles. Because of his bravery and outstanding achievements. Because its appearance was soft and not majestic enough, in order to frighten the enemy in battle, he made a ferocious mask and wore it every time he went into battle. On the battlefield, his armies were invincible. Later, his cousin Gao Wei became more and more famous because of his outstanding military achievements. After he ascended the throne, he was afraid that the throne would be taken away from him. In 573 AD the emperor gave him a dove, and he died at the age of 33.

The father of the warrior Lan Ling is Gao Cheng, the eldest son of Shenwu Gao Huan, the great ancestor of the Northern Qi Dynasty, but his mother does not even have a surname, which makes his life experience confusing. It contains: "Longgong, King Wu of Lanling, filial son, and the fourth son of Wenxiang." Among the six men, "Queen Wen Jingyuan gave birth to Wang Xiaowan of Hejian, Wang Xiaoyu of Henan in the Song Dynasty, King Wang Guangning, the warrior Lanling Longgong, King Yanzong of Chen, Prince of Yanyuyang County. "Among the six brothers, only the mother of the warrior Lanling did not have a surname. I don't know who it is. Therefore, it is inferred that the identity and status of the warrior Lanling's mother was probably just a humble and unknown maid in the palace. In this way, in the era of nobles who valued blood, the warrior Lan Ling was in an awkward position despite being the grandson of the emperor. His "inexplicable" identity brought him tremendous pressure, and he endured the contemptuous looks of others every day and lived a humble life. This was his childhood living situation. The warrior Lanling is handsome. "Book of Northern Qi", "Book of Northern Qi" said that he was "soft in appearance, strong in heart, and full of emotions"; he was said to be a "beautiful woman in white". Due to his handsome and gentle appearance, he was often despised by his opponents when fighting on the battlefield. For this reason, he had to make some ferocious-looking "big faces" and wear them on his face every time he went on an expedition to intimidate his opponents. Year: "There was a generation that started in the Northern Qi Dynasty. The Shenwu brothers were brave and good at fighting. Because of their beauty, they wore masks every time they entered the battle. They were victorious in every battle. They were dressed in purple and their waists were gold." Later, the appearance of "Facebook" in Peking Opera , the custom of making faces during the New Year and festivals has been spread in the rural areas of southern Hebei, such as the Facebook in the movie "Northern History", which is not unrelated to the influence of the mask in "Lanling Warriors". The "big face" of the soldier Lanling can be called the ancestor of Facebook. The warrior Lanling is brave and good at fighting. According to historical records, the warrior Lan Ling was "brave and good at fighting", "bravely championed the three armies and victorious in every battle". He was a famous general in the Northern Dynasty who was both civil and military, wise and brave. The soldier Lanling participated in countless battles, large and small, throughout his life. Among them is the famous Mangshan Battle in history. In 564 AD, the Turks on the northern grasslands and the Northern Zhou on the Loess Plateau attacked the Northern Qi. Luoyang, an important town in the Northern Qi Dynasty, was besieged by a hundred thousand troops in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Emperor Wucheng of the Northern Qi Dynasty quickly mobilized troops to clear the gap. Outside Luoyang City, the Northern Qi reinforcements launched attacks again and again, but were defeated by the Northern Zhou army and were on the verge of total annihilation. At this time, Lan Ling, a soldier who was appointed as General Zhong Jun, wore a "big face" on his head, armor and a sharp sword in his hand. He led five hundred fine cavalry and bravely fought his way into the siege of the Zhou army. He reached the gate of Luoyang City with overwhelming force. The Northern Qi army was trapped in the city for many days and could not open the door. Warrior Lanling took off his mask. The Northern Qi army in the city immediately cheered, opened the city gate, joined forces with the army outside the city, and fought bravely to kill the enemy. The Zhou army was defeated.

The warrior Lanling is of high quality and kind-hearted. According to historical records, the warrior Lanling was a famous commander in the Northern Dynasty who was both civil and military, wise and brave. Not only was he brave and good at fighting, and he had repeatedly made meritorious deeds, he was also loyal to his superiors and had strict requirements on his subordinates. He was well-known among soldiers and in the society at that time. It is recorded that every time he tasted sweetness, he would share it with the warriors, even though he had a few fruits. As the emperor of a dynasty in troubled times, it is really rare to be able to share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers without any pretense. He was magnanimous even to his "political opponents." After the great victory at Mangshan, the emperor rewarded him and bought him twenty beautiful concubines, but he "only accepted one." Before he died, he burned all the IOUs owed to him. In the crazy era of beheading and murder in the Northern Qi Dynasty, his generous and benevolent side, his unique style, and the brilliance of human nature that warms people's hearts are admirable. The fate of the soldier Lanling was tragic. If a tree in the forest is beautiful, it will be destroyed by the wind. If it has high merit, disaster will come from heaven. Gao Wei, the leader of the Northern Qi Dynasty, had a cowardly character. Compared with his ancestors, he was more dissolute and less strict, but he was determined to kill his relatives. One day in 565 AD, when Gao Wei was discussing the success of Mang Mountain with the warrior Lan Ling, he said quite humanely: "If you get too deep in the battle, you will regret your failure." The hero Lan Ling listened. He couldn't help but feel excited when he said that his imperial brother felt so sorry for him. He replied affectionately: "Although family affairs are good, I don't feel it.
"It was this show of intimacy and loyalty that got him killed. History records: "The emperor thought it was a family matter, so he avoided it. "One day in May 573 AD, the desperate warrior Lan Ling drank the poisoned wine given by the emperor's brother and left this chaotic world. After his death, he was buried 5 kilometers south of Ci County. Four years later, he lost his military support. The Northern Qi Dynasty was destroyed by the Northern Kingdom. The tragedy of the hero may be the tragedy of that era. For the warrior Lan Ling, the greatest sorrow was that he was born into a royal family that was so crazy that it was almost abnormal. In just 28 years, the Northern Dynasty had six generations. The emperor, uncles and nephews tortured each other, and brothers killed each other. Although the soldier Lan Ling looked gentle and had outstanding military achievements, he was cautious in his life and could not escape the tragic fate of "If you tell me to die, I will die too" in "Victory at Mangshan". In the novel, the warriors of the Northern Qi Dynasty celebrated their victory with a masquerade, and the widely circulated "Sui and Tang Dynasties" was born. Although the warrior Lan Ling died, the song was later fixed as a masked figure in "Yuefu Zalu". The solo dance of the assassination was conducted by a man. The melody is solemn and majestic, simple and melodious, describing the heroic scenes and tragic emotions at that time.
After the song was born, it spread rapidly among the people. It was officially included in the court dance music. Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Middle Tang Dynasty, designated it as "non-formal music" and banned its performance. After that, it gradually lost its true nature as a martial art and evolved into a "soft dance" in the Southern Song Dynasty. The name of the tune is called "Ye Banquet", which can be divided into Yue tune and Dashi tune. According to Wang Zhuo's "Lanling King Entering the Battle Song", this song is "an ageless song". Later, this song gradually became lost in China. . However, "The Song of King Lanling Entering the Battle", which was introduced to Japan in the Tang Dynasty, has retained some of its true features. In ancient Japan, it was played repeatedly during celebrations such as the Horse Racing Festival on May 5, the Sumo Festival on July 7, and the Archery Competition. This song. Now "Lanling Wang Slow" is still the first solo performance until the annual Japanese classical music and dance performance held in Nara, Japan on January 15. In 1986, Hebei Ci County cultural relics passed Japan. Experts restored the song. On September 6, 1428, after the song came out, the elegant orchestra led by Nara University professor Li Zhikan played in front of the tomb of the Lanling Warriors in Ci County.
