Hua Mulan
1 min readHua Mulan ，the Synonym of a Heroine Hua Mulan was China’s most famous woman warrior who lived and fought in the fifth century AD.Her father was conscripted to go to war，but he was too sick to fight，so Hua Mulan offered to go in his place.Her father rejected the offer，but she insisted.She suggested they have a sword fight and if she won，she’d go.Mulan won the fight.
She cut her hair，put on her father’s armor and joined the emperor’s troops using her father’s name.For over ten years，she fought as a man without her true identity being discovered.
Her bravery at the front lines and extraordinary fighting skill so impressed her general that he offered this soldier his daughter’s hand in marriage.Somehow，the marriage never took place and Mulan returned home and became herself again.
She had much fighting ability，and could act the leader.
Her body passed through one hundred battles，always at the front，and compared to the fiercest soldiers，she was still better.
Later on，some people created a poem“Mulan” to praise the outstanding Chinese woman whose image is equivalent to Joan of Arc in the west.
