Saving General Yang

In the chill of the early Northern Song, a fragile peace trembles beneath the threat of a powerful neighbor. The empire’s borders are a patchwork of fortified towns and rugged mountains, where the clang of armor and the whisper of ancient oaths echo through mist‑shrouded valleys. A looming invasion from the north casts a long shadow, turning the realm’s bustling markets and serene villages into a stage for looming conflict and uneasy alliances.

At the heart of this storm stands the stoic commander Yang Ye, a former general who has pledged his skill to the new Song order. He carries the weight of a storied clan, his reputation forged in battles long past and his honor bound to a family that reveres duty above all. Beside him, his steadfast wife She Saihua tends to the household, while the tension between Yang’s house and the ambitious Pan Renmei simmers, rooted in a tragic accident that still fuels a bitter feud between the two patriarchs.

When the northern invaders advance, the fragile balance shatters. Yeli Yuan, a determined enemy commander, arrives with a personal vendetta that adds a darker edge to the looming clash. In the midst of the chaos, Yang Ye finds himself in a perilous position, his fate hanging by a thread as the forces around him swirl with mistrust and ambition. The looming battle is as much a test of strategy as it is a crucible for the loyalties that bind families and nations together.

Facing the uncertainty of war, the seven sons of Yang feel the call of duty and blood. Each brother, from the seasoned warrior to the untested youth, prepares to step beyond the safety of home into a world where honor, sacrifice, and brotherhood are the only guides. The film’s tone blends sweeping historical grandeur with intimate family drama, inviting the audience to wonder how far the bonds of a legendary clan will stretch when the very foundations of their world are threatened.
