by Yasuko
About This Novel
In 1911, the Revolution of 1911 broke out, ending the feudal dynasty that had ruled China for more than two thousand years and ushering in an era of warlord rule. Since then, warlords, big and small, have appeared on the scene, each leaving a strong or weak mark in the modern history of the fierce collision between Eastern and Western cultures. The land of China is full of smoke and war. The Chinese warlords come from rough backgrounds. They are either perverse, tough and domineering, careless about human life, or approachable. But no matter which warlord they are, they can be called heroes in troubled times. Regardless of whether it is absurd or confused, how can China rule the roost in troubled times and have no personality at all? This book uses a unique perspective to show the alternative humor of those reckless warriors, uncovers the hilarious and shocking secret history, restores a living history, depicts the group portraits of Chinese warlords, allowing readers to understand modern Chinese history from the details, and read the many helplessness of modern China from the warlords.
