Dragon Blade is a 2015 Chinese historical action film[11] written and directed by Daniel Lee starring Jackie Chan.

The squad returns to their home city where Huo An's gentle wife Xiuqing (Mika Wang) serves as a schoolteacher for orphans of multiple ethnicities.

Not long after, Wild Geese Gate is threatened by an exhausted Roman legion, carrying with them a blind boy named Publius (Jozef Waite), the youngest son of triumvir Marcus Licinius Crassus.

The next day, the Romans help the workers in rebuilding the fortress using their superior engineering skills, boosting the morale and happiness of the inhabitants in the process.

After learning of Lucius and his legion's capture, Huo An and a few loyal soldiers from his squad and the Wild Geese Gate travel to Kroran to rescue them and liberate the Silk Road.

A battle ensues but, despite their combined strength, the nomadic forces are unable to gain the upper hand and they suffer heavy casualties.

The battle's tide is soon turned when an army of Parthians, led by some of Lucius's soldiers sent earlier, arrive to avenge Crassus and restore peace between Rome and Parthia.

Thousands of years later, the city fades from collective memory until in the present day, a team of archaeologists stumble upon the site and uncover its ruins but upon learning of its tragic history via 3D reconstruction, the archeologists prefer to leave Regum be in peace.

The site's consensus reads, "Dragon Blade is beautifully staged and choreographed, but between the battles, its talented cast is overwhelmed by a dull story and choppy editing.

[27] Variety's Maggie Lee applauded the film for its overall technical details and concluded it to be "a colossal entertainment with solid technique and terrific storytelling smarts".

[28] Clarence Tsui of The Hollywood Reporter complimented Dragon Blade for its filmmaking quality and screenplay for a primarily mainland Chinese production.

[29] IGN awarded it a score of 6 out of 10, saying "The story is rubbish, but Dragon Blade has some cool fight scenes thanks to Jackie Chan's action direction.

"[30] In a negative review, Gabriel Chong from MovieXclusive.com panned Dragon Blade as being "utterly awful in every respect", criticizing the performances of the starring cast and inconsistent changes in tone.

The historian Homer H. Dubs speculated in 1941 that Roman prisoners of war who were transferred to the eastern border of the Parthian empire might later have clashed with Han troops there.
