Origin Story

南宋时期，金兵大举入侵，南宋朝廷无力抵抗，节节败退。岳飞临危受命，率领岳家军奋勇抗敌。岳飞以其卓越的军事才能和英勇无畏的精神，率领岳家军取得了一系列的重大胜利，他高举抗金大旗，誓师北伐，决心收复失地。岳飞对将士们说：“我一定要直捣黄龙，与诸位痛饮！”。岳家军士气高昂，奋勇杀敌，一路势如破竹，直逼金国的都城——黄龙府。尽管最终由于奸臣秦桧的陷害，岳飞壮志未酬，但“直捣黄龙”的豪迈气概和爱国精神，成为了千古传诵的佳话。

During the Southern Song Dynasty, the Jin army launched a large-scale invasion, and the Southern Song court was powerless to resist, retreating step by step. Yue Fei was entrusted with the important task and led the Yue family army to bravely fight the enemy. With his outstanding military talent and fearless spirit, Yue Fei led the Yue family army to achieve a series of major victories. He raised the banner of anti-Jin, swore to launch a Northern Expedition, and determined to recover the lost land. Yue Fei said to his soldiers: "I will definitely attack Huanglong and have a drink with you all!" The morale of the Yue family army was high, they fought bravely, and they advanced like a broken bamboo, approaching the capital of the Jin Kingdom—Huanglong Mansion. Although Yue Fei's ambition remained unfulfilled due to the persecution of the traitor Qin Hui, the heroic spirit and patriotic spirit of "attacking Huanglong" has become an immortal legend.
