The wealthy Yan family, who deals in property development, is facing territorial dispute against the rival Guan family, not helped by the invading Japanese forces - led by the tycoon Ogawa, affiliated with local Yakuza kingpin Ishikawa - who had their eyes on a nearby forest which is the Yan family's ancestral land and prized heritage. What makes matters worse is that before Yan can tie the knot with his sweetheart, he ends up discovering his adoptive younger sister, Chiao-chiao, have feelings for him as well. And with the revelation of a traitor in their family who had sided with the Japanese, everything's going to hell...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })It's really no coincidence that this film is released roughly the same time as Bruce Lee's Fist of Fury, is it?Ling Yun will partake in yet another Shaw film set during the Sino-Japanese war, Heroes of the Underground, the following year. | |

| The Deadly Knives / int_ab68c5cc | comment |
Chronic Hero Syndrome: Yan Zi Fei, all the time. In his first scene while he's making out with Yue Hua, he witnessed a bunch of Japanese punks forcing themselves on a couple of girls, with most of the passengers too afraid to do anything, and Yan's response is to march up to the Japanese and beat the snot out of them. | |
