Synopsis:

In 1927, the first Kuomintang-Communist cooperation broke down in an all-round way, and party organizations in various places faced a bloody test. Changsha Police Commander (played by Heizi) sent his favorite student Yan Songsheng (played by Zhang Ruoyun) to lead a contingent to raid the underground party organization in You County. Tan Jun (played by Qiao Pengyue), the head of the trade union, and Yu Zhong, the party representative, were injured and killed, and Tan Jun’s family members were also shot. Tan Jun, who harbored class hatred, joined the Red Army as a political instructor.

Tan Jun was full of annoyance and had nowhere to vent because the company looked down on civilian officials. Fortunately, he got a place to study in the Red Army Military Academy. While Tan Jun was improving his tactics, he had a secret love affair with the spicy female instructor Jiang Dongmei (played by Cai Die). As the anti-encirclement and suppression situation became severe, Tan Jun decided to give up his studies and return to the battlefield.

Later, he fought desperately with his old enemy Yan Songsheng, winning and losing each other. When the “Leftist” storm hit, the central government sent a working group to “rectify”. Facing the accusation of “running away and retreating”, Tan Jun argued hard, and was finally dismissed from his post and put in a confinement room. Under the onslaught of Yan Songsheng’s troops, Tan Jun’s troops were almost wiped out, and Jiang Dongmei died heroically.

In the summer of 1938, the Japanese army dispatched troops from central China to attack the “red poplar tree”, a strategic location for shipping on the Yangtze River. Yan Songsheng, who was promoted to the commander of the national army, was ordered to stick to it. Due to heavy casualties, the position was taken over by the Wannan Detachment of the New Fourth Army led by Tan Jun. Yan Song’s voice was inspired by righteousness, and he also led troops to reinforce him.

After several days of fierce fighting, they finally succeeded in resisting the enemy. Tan Jun and Yan Songsheng cleared up their previous suspicions, but since then they have started a battle of wits and courage with another old enemy, the brigade commander Saito (played by Li Zhuolin) of the Japanese Army.

The brave and tenacious pro-democracy leader Tian Min (played by Zhu Jie) prepares the coffin and vows to live and die with the prosperous city. The college student Shang Mengzhe (played by Wu Chengxuan), who was tortured by his conscience, was engulfed by the comfort woman Binzi (played by Wu Ting) who wanted to repay Saito’s life-saving grace, and the head of the Yuanchuan Army Luo Tuanzhe (played by Du Yuming), who was the enemy and friend of Tan Junbu, and Yan Songsheng.

Lin Xianyue (Lan Yingying), an undercover Communist Party undercover who loves and entangles her all her life, will fulfill her irreplaceable ultimate mission at the cost of her life in that magnificent historical confrontation
