Post Description

In 1905, Sun Yat-sen (called "Sun Wen" in the film) intends to come to Hong Kong 
(then a colony of the British Empire) to discuss his plans for revolution with fellow 
Tongmenghui members to overthrow the corrupt and crumbling Qing Dynasty. 
Empress Dowager Cixi sends a group of assassins led by Yan Xiaoguo to kill Sun. 
Revolutionary Chen Shaobai arrives in Hong Kong a few days before Sun's arrival, 
to meet Li Yutang, a businessman who provides financial aid for the revolutionaries. 
As Sun Wen's arrival day draws near, trouble begins brewing in Hong Kong as Chen 
Shaobai's acquaintances are murdered and Chen himself is kidnapped by the assassins 
during a raid. Li Yutang decides to officially declare his support for the revolutionaries 
after the newspaper agency is closed by the British authorities, who maintain a policy 
of laissez-faire towards China's political situation. Li rallies a group of men, including 
rickshaw pullers, hawkers and a beggar, to serve as bodyguards for Sun Wen when he 
arrives. Li's son Li Chongguang is chosen to act as a decoy for Sun Wen to divert the 
assassins away while Sun attends the meeting and leaves Hong Kong safely.
