In late Qing Dynasty, China was surrounded by foreign powers and was weakened. Once, a Western fleet sailed into a Chinese port, flaunting its might, and openly trampled on China's sovereignty. This incident caused national indignation, and countless patriots were heartbroken and regarded this as a great humiliation, vowing to avenge the shame and rejuvenate China. From then on, a strong wave of patriotism swept the whole country, pushing the Chinese people towards the path of national rejuvenation.
