Weir is weird - she puts something in with no historical basis and that she doesn't even believe as an historian.....!

The historical aspects
Historical action doesn't get any better than this
Taking place in 16th century China, the movie follows the story of General Qi Jiguang (Wenzhuo Zhao) in his fight against the Wokou (Japanese Pirates) that were terrorizing the Chinese coast. Based on a true story.

Currently reading Margaret of Anjou by Conn Iggulden. Brilliant book and true to the reality. I'm a mad historical fiction fan.
