The story revolves around the round after round of contests between the county magistrate Zhang Mazi and the bully Huang Shilang. In the end, justice defeated evil and the story came to a successful conclusion. This is a film full of symbolism, with profound connotations. For example, on the way to suppress the bandits, the master said that Kangcheng was on the commission, but he lied to Zhang Mazi that it was Goose City. Cannes is rich, and Goose is dangerous. In fact, the Goose City here refers to Russia. At that time, after the 1911 Revolution ended, the fruits of the revolution were stolen without changing the medicine. Therefore, they hoped to follow the example of Russia and take the socialist road, but the "goose city" was dangerous. "Cannes is rich" symbolizes the ideal communist society. These all reflect the social phenomenon at that time, the people were afraid of those in power and lived under their oppression. The political implication of "Let the Bullets Fly" is that the Revolution of 1911 was incomplete. At the same time, a large number of movie symbols are used to map the social phenomenon that during the turmoil, warlords from all over the country fought, society was dark, and the people were in dire straits and dared not speak out.
