In 2005, the war drama "Bright Sword" starring Li Youbin, Zhang Guangbei, He Zhengjun and others was broadcast.
As soon as the play was aired, it quickly aroused heated discussions among the audience. In the play, Li Yunlong, played by Li Youbin, shouted at the top of his voice, and the thrilling battles left a deep impression on people. Especially the scene where the entire cavalry company was annihilated is still unforgettable after so many years.
Since then, many war dramas have been broadcast one after another, such as "The Anti-Japanese Heroes", "Towards the Gunfire", "The Gunslinger", etc. However, these dramas have failed in terms of plot design, character creation and other aspects. It surpasses "Bright Sword" and can't even be said to be comparable to it.
is like this, 18 years have passed.
It was not until 2024 that " Detective Hero " was launched. Audience friends couldn't help but sigh that after 18 years, there was finally a war drama comparable to "Bright Sword".
Looking closely, there are still many similarities between "Reconnaissance Heroes" and "Bright Sword".
In terms of plot, "Reconnaissance Heroes" mainly tells the story of Liang Chen, the reconnaissance section chief played by Luo Jin, who led the reconnaissance company to use superb strategies and tactics to fight against the US military many times during the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.
In "Reconnaissance Heroes", there are many battles in which the reconnaissance company defeated the greater number with less. The audience who watched these plots were very excited and said that they were very enjoyable.
Some people may think that such plots are a bit exaggerated, but in reality, these plots all have their origins. For example, Liang Chen led people to disguise themselves as enemy troops, sneak into the Black Panther Division headquarters, and annihilate them in one fell swoop. This was adapted from "Surprise Attack on the White Tigers".
So, the story told in "Reconnaissance Heroes" is not only not exaggerated, but also very consistent with the situation at that time.
In "Bright Sword", Li Yunlong led his troops to fight many victorious battles, including many battles in which he defeated more with less. The audience who watched the same battle said it was wonderful.
In "Bright Sword", Li Yunlong has two love lines, one is his sincere and pure relationship with Xiu Qin, and the other is the marriage between Li Yunlong and Tian Yu after Xiu Qin's sacrifice.
In "Reconnaissance Heroes", there is also an emotional line between Liang Chen and Wen Jie. However, unlike Li Yunlong's two emotional lines, the relationship between Liang Chen and Wen Jie is more delicate, which is also in line with the personal characteristics of the protagonists of the two dramas.
In addition, "Reconnaissance Heroes" and "Bright Sword" have another thing in common, that is, the supporting roles are very well acted.
Now when "Bright Sword" is mentioned, people will still think of Chu Yunfei, Lao Kong, Monk, Sun Desheng, Zhang Dabiao and others. I still remember the episode where the monk went offline. I was really angry at that time. This shows how outstanding the performance of these supporting actors is.
In "Reconnaissance Heroes", supporting actors such as Qi Lu, Xiucai, Li Wanfu, and Daniu also left a deep impression on people.
As the saying goes, red flowers need to be lined with green leaves. No matter how well the plot of a TV series is designed and how wonderful the protagonist is, if the supporting roles are not performed well, the audience will still skip the show.
Of course, there is a big difference between "Reconnaissance Heroes" and "Bright Sword", that is, the reconnaissance company in "Reconnaissance Heroes" is equivalent to the current special forces. They are good at sneak attacks, ambushes, and destruction. On the battlefield, the reconnaissance company is equivalent to a sharp knife, specially designed to damage the enemy's vital points.
Therefore, the battles in "Reconnaissance Heroes" usually take place at night, and they are also local battles. It rarely has large-scale battles like "Bright Sword". So if you look at the plot alone, the plot of "Reconnaissance Heroes" is even more intense.
"Detective Heroes" ranked first in the ratings for three consecutive days just after it aired. From this, we can see how much the audience likes this drama.
With its gripping plot, real battle scenes, and heart-warming emotional lines, "Reconnaissance Heroes" has too many highlights. It is said to be comparable to "Bright Sword". What do you think?
