This work cuts through the century-old sorrow of modern China in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China with a cold and stern writing style. Amidst the artillery fire of resisting the invasion of foreign powers and the struggle for compromise that humiliated the country, it illuminates the panic of the last dynasty and the turbulent fate of the warlords of the Republic of China. The historical pain of being humiliated by foreign powers for hundreds of years penetrates the back of the paper, making people ponder: When the gate of the country is blasted open by powerful ships and cannons, how much blood and tears does a nation have to pay for its awakening?
