8	----
9	!!''Wolf Warrior 2'' contains examples of:
10	* AfricaIsACountry: A Chinese diplomat is able to talk down African revolutionaries by saying China and Africa are friends rather than specifying the country they are in.
11	* AmazingFreakingGrace: Plays while the rebels attack the factory and the civilians hide inside.
12	* AttackDrone: The night raid on the factory has the revolutionaries using armed remote-controlled drones. They did quite some damage before Leng Feng and a few others manage to improvise and spray the drones down via FireHoseCannon.
13	* {{Bulungi}}: The movie takes place in an unspecified African country.
14	* BondOneLiner: [[spoiler: Zhuo delivers one after killing Great Bear. Doubles as an IronicEcho.]]
15	--> [[spoiler: '''Zhuo: '''Didn't your mother tell you not to mess with spoiled brats!?]]
16	* BrandishmentBluff: Zhuo, the factory's head of security, points a pistol at Leng when he first appears. It's later revealed to be an airsoft gun.
17	* TheBrute: Great Bear, the [[GiantMook big muscle]] of Dyon Corps.
18	* ColdSniper / DarkActionGirl: Athena, the mercenary sniper working for Dyon Corps.
19	* DiabolusExMachina: [[spoiler: The UN helicopter evacuating the refugees, including Rachel, was suddenly shot down by the revolutionaries after taking off.]]
20	* DrowningMySorrows: While in Africa, Leng plays frequent drinking games to forget his discharge and the disappearance of Commander Long.
21	* EnsignNewbie: The factory's head of security Zhuo Yifan is young and inexperienced and has an older, more experienced veteran He Jianguo under his command.
22	* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Great Bear and Athena are a [[BattleCouple couple]] and he is genuinely saddened and angered when she is killed.
23	* EvilCannotComprehendGood: [[spoiler: Big Daddy's last words to Leng are how the latter is going to die for protecting the surviving factory personnel.]]
24	* HonoraryUncle: Leng is called "godfather" by Tundu, a teenage street merchant.
25	* IAmSpartacus: Done twice, first by the hospital personnel to cover Dr. Chen, then the factory workers when the revolutionaries are hunting for Leng after he departed from the factory. Neither ends well.
26	* TheImmune: Pasha, one of Dr. Chen's patients and the only one he was able to test his cure on before he was killed. Whichever side of the civil war captures Pasha gains the ability to stop the outbreak and takes control of the country.
27	* InfectionScene: The car Leng, Rachel and Pasha rode on after the hospital escape scene lands upside-down right on what appears to be an open mass grave for Lamanla victims, where Leng's wounded arm just happens to be in the vicinity of one of the corpses while getting out of the car, exposing his wound to the virus.
28	* InsigniaRipoffRitual: Done to Leng Feng after he's sent to prison for assaulting a real estate tycoon.
29	* JerkassHasAPoint: The factory owner who kicks out Leng for having [[ThePlague Lamanla]] is right that he has to put the safety of everyone in the factory before one man.
30	* LivingMacGuffin: Subverted with Dr. Chen, who gets killed halfway in the movie and entrusts Leng with guarding the movie's actual MacGuffin in [[TheImmune Pasha.]]
31	* MajorInjuryUnderreaction: Leng's response on coming in contact with the Lamanla virus?
32	--> '''Leng:''' It's fine, I have health insurance!
33	* TheMedic: Rachel.
34	--> '''Leng, after receiving a cache of weapons from Rachel:''' Your hands are for saving lives, not taking.
35	* NeutralityBacklash: When revolutionaries raid a store, the storekeeper holds up a pro-revolution flag. The revolutionaries try to execute him when they find he also has a pro-government flag hidden away.
36	* PlausibleDeniability: The PLA refuses to send any troops to rescue Dr. Chen as the UN will not allow it. Leng Feng volunteers to go as he's not a soldier any more.
37	* ThePlague: Lamanla, which started a massive outbreak in Africa threatening both the locals and the Chinese workers stationed there.
38	* PoisonedWeapon: Leng creates a wooden crossbow that fires poisoned bolts while liberating the factory that was taken over by the revolutionary army.
39	* PragmaticVillainy: The revolutionary leader tells Big Daddy to not kill any Chinese since China is part of the UN Security Council and he will need their support to take power. [[spoiler: Unfortunately, pointing this out gets him killed by Dyon Corps, with his second-in-command taking his place agreeing to help in stopping Leng by all means even if it means incurring the wrath of a foreign nation.]]
40	* PrivateMilitaryContractors: Leng Feng's job after getting discharged from the army. The foes he goes against are a group of mercenaries called Dyon Corps as well.
41	* TheRevolutionWillNotBeCivilized: The country is in a civil war between the government and revolutionaries. The revolutionaries are depicted much less sympathetically, with their modus operandi being [[WithUsOrAgainstUs "kill anybody who is not on our side",]] be it either native or foreign civilians.
42	* RippedFromTheHeadlines: The plot is basically a FixFic inspired by a [[https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/oct/06/un-peacekeepers-refused-to-help-south-sudan-rebels-raped-aid-workers-report 2016 story about Chinese UN peacekeepers in South Sudan]] who abandoned their posts and failed to help civilians caught in the crossfire of a civil war.
43	* ShamingTheMob: Rachel does this to the factory workers who kick Leng out after finding out he has [[ThePlague Lamanla.]]
44	* ShirtlessScene: Leng and several others play soccer shirtless on a beach.
45	* SpoiledBrat: Zhuo, a young, inexperienced lad who is ignorant of the horrors of war until Rachel spells it out to him. Which Great Bear mocks him with this:
46	--> '''Great Bear''': Didn't your mother tell you not to play with guns?
47	* TankGoodness: The climax has Leng and co hijacking a revolutionary tank and using it to take out multiple tanks.
48	* TragicKeepsake: Leng keeps a bullet that was found where Commander Long was captured. He later learns it's the trademark of Dyon Corps, [[spoiler: and spells it out to their leader in the climax.]]
49	--> '''Leng:''' Long Xiaoyun...\
50	'''Big Daddy:''' That girl? She was a pretty one.\
51	'''Leng:''' [[ItsPersonal Blood... for blood.]]
52	* WarIsHell: And HOW. A brutal civil war in a country with an ongoing plague outbreak never ends well for anybody. Families displaced by war and disease, innocent lives gunned down by crazed rebels and mecernaries... Rachel had to spell it out to Zhuo when he says he calls the sound of gunfire a pretty sight:
53	--> '''Rachel, showing a picture of the refugees of war to Zhuo:''' Will the sound of gunfire be a pretty sight if you're in that situation?
54	** [[spoiler: Drilling this point home to the PLA navy by witnessing a broadcast of the revolutionaries' massacre of fleeing factory personnel as Leng's standoff against the revolutionary army crumbles is what motivates the navy to launch a missile strike to destroy the revolutionary army closing in on the factory.]]
55	* TheWorldsExpertOnGettingKilled: Dr. Chen, who has the knowhow to develop the vaccine for Lamanla, gets killed by the rebels as he tries to attack one of the them from behind.
