Plot Summary

On December 13, 1937, Nanjing City, which was then the capital of the Nationalist Government, fell. Some officials abandoned the city and fled, but there were still many officers and soldiers staying behind, vowing to defend this crumbling city to the death. Song Xilian's officer Lu Jianxiong (played by Liu Ye), together with his comrades, engaged in fierce street battles with the Japanese army. Their weak but tenacious resistance was eventually suppressed, and tens of thousands of Chinese soldiers and civilians became prisoners of war, staining the Yangtze River with blood amidst the sound of gunfire; In the safe zone of Jinling Women's College, female teacher Jiang Shuyun (played by Gao Yuanyuan) travels back and forth, trying her best to help and save all the compatriots who come here for refuge. However, the animalistic Japanese army has already set its sights on the women hiding here; Mr. Tang (played by Fan Wei), the secretary of Rabe, handles things carefully, compromises everything, and makes the wrong choice to protect his family. He also pays the price for it; Dancer Xiao Jiang (played by Jiang Yiyan) refuses to abandon the softness of women even when she flees for refuge. Her choices at critical moments inject a sense of strength into her feminine shell; The Japanese man Kadokawa (played by Hero Nakazumi) entered this battered and dilapidated city with his troops. In this earthly purgatory, his soul felt an unprecedented impact. Amidst the backdrop of a great era, where smoke billows and blood flows like a river, people not only have to endure the merciless gifts of the times, but also have to make painful choices that are crucial to their fate
