AD564, Northern Qi's enemy Northern Zhou sent 100,000 troops besieged LuoYang ,Gao Changgong led only 500 cavalrymen and fought through an army of Northern Zhou, which was attacking the city with 50,000 soldiers. He fought bloody way to the gates the city, surprising the defenders. The soldiers of LuoYang didn't recognize him, so he took off his helmet and mask.
