To say a classic film of Chen Kexin, I said "Letter of Submission", I believe that no one will doubt it, this movie can be said to have created a very good three roles, namely Andy Lau's Zhao Erhu, Jin Chengwu's Jiang Wuyang and Jet Li's Pang Qingyun, when he was young, the biggest feeling of watching this movie is that Pan Qingyun played by Jet Li can be regarded as a very bad existence.
In the movie, Pang Qingyun, in order to make a name for himself, killed several innocent villagers, but also carried out a large-scale killing of the surrendered Taiping Army, directly slaughtered the surrendered Taiping Army, to the back, what is even more infuriating is that he actually killed his brothers and sisters who fought with himself, no matter how you look at it, he is a veritable bad guy, but when we grow up and watch this movie, we find that Pang Qingyun is a really good person.
Why? First of all, to say the first point, it must be Pang Qingyun's personality, in fact, Pang Qingyun is an idealist, he thinks that he can rely on military merit to do something for the people, but he does not know the disadvantage of doing so, he is treated as a dissident, being beaten and suppressed is also a daily operation, and he killed his brother, but also forced by the idealism of the situation.
In the movie, the most controversial thing to say is definitely the massacre of the Taiping Army in the movie, it seems that Zhao Erhu is the right one, in fact, Zhao Erhu is the brainless person, because at that time, their army also had insufficient food and grass supply, and these surrendered troops are not completely surrendered, let them eat and drink enough, what will happen next? Once the supply is out again, they will make a comeback.
In other words, if Pang Qingyun did not slaughter them all, and when they made a comeback, the next thing waiting for them was that their own troops were injured, and besides, as mentioned earlier, their resources were not much, if they were not eliminated at this time, it would be a considerable burden to capture them at that time, and their own troops would not be able to hold up at that time.
On the other hand, Zhao Erhu, he is completely a person who harmed himself for his own promise, if he distributes grain to those Taiping Army soldiers, there must be a problem with his own grain and grass supply, at this time, the next battle will definitely harm his own side, Zhao Erhu does not understand his brain at all, especially Zhao Erhu in the later stages of the war, such a high-profile he will inevitably invite the disaster of killing himself, even if Pang Qingyun does not kill him, he will not live long.
