A remake of the older film by the same Chinese title.

Chor Yuen shows his master stroke as he delves into the dastardly ways of evil warlords in China back in the 1910s. Tsung Hua and Ching Li are thwarted lovers who are torn apart when a lecherous general (Stanley Feng Tsui-Fan) rapes and forces the latter to become his concubine. With the help of two street performers (Chen Kuan-Tai and Shih Szu) he once helped, Tsung hatches a plot to save his beloved--with deadly consequences.
