"House of Flying Daggers", also known as "Huaiyin Pingchu", is a pipa solo piece based on the history of the struggle between Chu and Han.


The whole piece of music can be divided into three parts, consisting of thirteen paragraphs with subtitles, namely: column camp, wind and beat, point generals, formation, walking in line, ambush, small battle at Jiming Mountain, battle at Jiuli Mountain, Xiang. The king was defeated, Wujiang committed suicide, the army made a tribute, and the generals fought for merit and returned to the camp in victory.

The song is based on the historical facts of the battle between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu Gaixia in 202 BC, and depicts the fierce battle scenes in the form of title music. Although it is historical facts, it is also rich in emotion.
