There was a big war and they need every family to come to war. In order to defend China. But the Mulan family had only her father. He was too old to go to war. So he apologized. It is China's custom that the failure to abandon a war in which the king calls on all the people of China to gather to defend the country. It is a shame that accompanies his owner and his family for life. The king has put the names of those who left behind on the death row.

As soon as Mulan joined the war after she of course changed her name to that of a man. I started martial arts training. So it was clear to her that she did not know how to fight any of the ways of fighting. Whether by sword, naked hand or even fasting. But in true legend it was said that Mulan knew kung fu. Fight with the sword skillfully and also use sound as a sub-weapon with it. It is a skill in all of this.

But in fact, no one revealed that Mawlana was a boy but her fellow army officer, which attracted him more. He decided to help her to continue hiding in the army. He decided to marry her afterwards, but there were also colleagues in the army who had doubts that the boy was a woman, not a man. From the very beginning, it was not easy for her to adapt to playing the role of a man, not a girl. This led them to believe that he was not a man. But they were only confirmed after Mawlana revealed herself after the end of the war.
The end of Mulan story
After Mulan returned from the war and was honored in China and from the Chinese Emperor. Mulan asked to go home in order to present her prize, which she took from the emperor to her father. But in the real story, the end was more tragic than the cartoon. As soon as she returned home, she found that her father had died in grief for what she had done.
