Li Yunlong's regiment was reduced to a company, and the cavalry company fought to the last man. That paragraph well reflects the essence of the TV series "Bright Sword":
When encountering a strong enemy, dare to With a bright sword, you can lose but you won't flinch, you can lose your strength but not throw it away. During the Anti-Japanese War, the armies of the two parties were worse than Japan in terms of military quality and weapons and equipment. The makeup technology of "Bright Sword" is very successful. When fighting in the winter, your face will definitely be sallow and thin, and your face will be dirty. The military uniforms are also dirty, but the military appearance is neat. Some TV dramas with the theme of the Anti-Japanese War always have clean and straight military uniforms, sharp guns, snipers, and hand-held weapons.

If I don't avenge him, am I still a human being? This part of the TV series was shot very well. Many viewers cried when they saw this part. These are comrades and brothers.

Li Yunlong immediately gathered a team to attack the county and told his brothers that if he didn’t hide it, his wife would be arrested. If you don't save him, will he still be a man? Ping'an County was captured but my wife could not be rescued. A man of flesh and blood.

He and Chu Yunfei, the commander of the 358th Regiment of the National Army, had a mutual sympathy, but they had to compete during the Battle of Xu Bang, and both of them were seriously injured in the end... He has a lot of problems: he curses, drinks, loves to take advantage, is cunning and even acts rogue. He dares to bargain with the leader, does not obey orders and dares to disobey orders. Although his military exploits are outstanding, he is not just "three ups and downs", nor is he "high-ranking" There is no "Gao Daquan", but he is a real soldier, and what he displays is extraordinary personal charm.
