abstract

Zhao Erhu became a robber in troubled times and took hundreds of people to plunder everywhere. He is a thief and has a good idea. Even if he robbed, he was "robbing seven and leaving three", leaving a way for the robbed villagers. The points of robbery were given to the good people who lived in a mountain village with him, thus winning the hearts of all. Zhao Erhu loved two people most in his life, one was his wife Lian Sheng, and the other was his third brother Jiang Wuyang, who became a robber with him at the age of thirteen. Since the battle to grab the Taiping military grain truck, the stranger Pang Qingyun was injured and blocked an arrow for Jiang Wuyang, which made Jiang Wuyang deeply feel the grace of saving his life. So Jiang Wuyang worships Pang Qingyun more than Zhao Erhu.

Zhao Erhu and others' mountain villages were looted by the Qing army. After heavy casualties, Jiang Wuyang urged the three of them to become brothers, and their eldest brother Pang Qingyun led them to join the Qing court. Zhao Erhu didn't want to disappoint the third brother, and he didn't care about personal gains and losses, so he gave the position of leader to Pang Qingyun.

In order to realize the ideal of a peaceful and prosperous world without war, Pang Qingyun, with the help of a group of brothers such as Zhao Erhu and Jiang Wuyang, set up a "mountain camp" to temporarily serve the Qing court. It turned out that he wanted to gather military strength by attacking the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. But with his ruling, Pang Qingyun became more and more ambitious, which made him clear all obstacles. He did not hesitate to break with Zhao Erhu and slaughter the Taiping rebels who were persuaded by Zhao Erhu, just for fear of rebellion. He used Jiang Wuyang's fanatical personality to persuade him to stand on his side. Originally, Pang Qingyun was only one step away from success, but his behavior hurt Jiang Wuyang who admired him. At the inauguration ceremony, at the most glorious moment of power, Pang Qingyun died unexpectedly at the hands of an assassin.

Wonderful film review

As described by Jiang Wuyang, Pang Qingyun (played by Jet Li) doesn't believe in warlords at all. He only trusts his two brothers, and his "belief" is only based on the common interests that can be used when they exist. On the contrary, when the common interests change, especially when his personal interests are threatened, the "warlord" is just a ceremony in name only and a few childish vows. He is well aware of this. Therefore, when he is at the end of the road and attacking the city, he can live and die with his brother. He can also kill his brother for wealth and power after rising to the top.

A "warlords", full of color, exaggerates brotherhood, understates the region, and is affectionate. However, such a tragic male drama, in addition to the sensory shock of audio-visual aspects, makes people feel that it is a disappointing dream: if even the "warlord" who can best represent brotherhood is too fragile to stand the test of the world, what else can become the real utopia of our idealism? ?
