The past of three leaders, a magnificent war.
Toyama Ou, a young man who grew up in secular discrimination and bullying, chose to explode in silence.
His complete disappointment in human nature and his extreme desire for power led him to a path of no return where he hated the world and looked down upon human life.
Helian Ningshuang, a young man from Anhua country who was born as a manor owner, accidentally went abroad for experience and was discriminated against and devalued as an alien, which made him feel the poverty and backwardness of the Anhua nation.
He did not want his compatriots to have to live with the label of "lower nation" for the rest of their lives, and was determined to change all this. However, under an overly strong sense of national responsibility, he came up with the idea of using aggression to support development.
Wen Zhenyu's family has been in business for several generations, and the country is prosperous and peaceful. However, when she was young, she discovered early the problems of the country's emphasis on profits and neglect of government, and biased development, and determined to enter politics to change them.
The obstruction from her relatives and the pressure from society could not shake her belief even a little bit. Facing the vicious invaders, she decided to lead her people to resist.
"What's wrong with me? Aren't people born to die? I'm just reducing unnecessary trouble for them!"
"Only war can truly promote the development of human society!"
"For the people, I am willing to sacrifice everything, including my own life!"
At the end of the story, Toyama Ou and his wife committed suicide on the day of defeat.
After Helian Ningshuang was arrested, he was burned to ashes amidst the people's scolding.
Wen Zhenyu dedicated his all to the country, and finally passed away quietly at his post.
Time has passed and everything has become history. We are no longer qualified to criticize and evaluate the rights and wrongs of our predecessors.
After all, throughout our lives, we are just a tiny drop of water in the long river of history, a hasty passer-by in the complicated world.
Purpose: war and peace, lessons from history, thoughts on the good and evil of human nature
