During the First World War, the German government used a beautiful slogan to call on young and enthusiastic student volunteers to join the battlefield to defend their country. Paul and his classmates were instigated by the teacher's chauvinist ideas and devoted themselves to the war with heroic ideals. These young people had idealized life and war.

However, the naive dreams were shattered, and soon they found themselves involved in a lasting, cruel war torture. The earth became gloomy and terrifying, and many people cried, struggled, and called, trying to free themselves from the threat of death, but could only fall down powerlessly. The protagonist Paul begins to doubt the ideals of the past. The cruelty and destructive nature of the war completely shattered his heroism. His heart changed and he began to doubt, dislike, and even hate the war. Finally one day, Paul climbed out of the trench to catch a butterfly, but was shot dead by a cold gun. However, compared with war, personal life is insignificant. In the report of the Front Line Command that day, it was written: There is no war on the Western Front
