All Men Are Brothers (蕩寇誌), also known as Seven Soldiers of Kung Fu, is a 1975 Hong Kong wuxia film adapted from the 14th-century classical novel Water Margin, focusing on the Liangshan outlaws' campaign against Fang La's forces after they have been granted amnesty. The film was produced by the Shaw Brothers Studio and directed by Chang Cheh and Wu Ma.

Synopsis

The 108 Stars of Destiny at Liangshan have been granted amnesty by Emperor Huizong due to the efforts of Yan Qing and Li Shishi. The emperor sends them to attack Fang La, a rebel leader in southern China whose forces rival that of the Liangshan outlaws. Although the Liangshan forces eventually defeat and capture Fang La, they also sustain heavy losses and many of their heroes are killed during the campaign.
