As Chinese military forces fight back against the invading Imperial Japanese army, the government conscripts young men to defend the country. Xie Xiang (Bai Lu) urgently wants to join the battle, fueled by her hatred of injustice. There’s just one problem… she’s a woman! Refusing to let that stop her, she cuts her hair short and assumes her brother’s identity, eventually getting drafted into an elite military academy in Shanghai and befriending other recruits, including the quarrelsome rich kid Gu Yan Zheng (Xu Kai) and the more introverted Shen Jun San (Li Cheng Bin). Xie Xiang wants to keep her true identity a secret, but when both Yan Zheng and Jun San start to fall for her, the challenge becomes increasingly difficult. Will the comrades-in-arms survive the bitter ravages of love and war? This 2019 Chinese period drama was directed by Hue Kai Dong.
