Are you sure it was
Red Cloud who
attacked the wagon?
49
00:06:48,526 --> 00:06:52,325
It's his warriors, sir.
No doubt about it.
He wants that gold.
50
00:06:52,367 --> 00:06:54,998
Possibly. But his
logic escapes me.
51
00:06:55,039 --> 00:06:57,462
Little more than a week.
We will be placing the gold
in Red Cloud's hands.
52
00:06:57,503 --> 00:06:59,340
Why would he
want to steal it?
53
00:06:59,382 --> 00:07:01,302
For ethical reasons,
I'd say.
54
00:07:02,346 --> 00:07:04,517
Most peculiar
code of ethics.
55
00:07:04,558 --> 00:07:06,021

them at West Point.

Go on, Captain.
57
00:07:11,157 --> 00:07:14,329
If he accepts the gold,
he can't fight you for a year
without breaking his word.
58
00:07:14,371 --> 00:07:16,835
By stealing it he can
go to war and still
retain his honor.

would be inopportune.It will come, Major.

This country's being
opened up
to the settlers.
61
00:07:22,178 --> 00:07:25,227
That's a clear violation
of our agreement
with the Indians.

you're right, Jamie.

alter the situation.

one stab at

Do you think he will let the
next wagon go through?

00:07:53,828 --> 00:07:55,455
No, I think it's quite
possible he will
raid the wagon,

the gold has already left.

runs right down the
middle of that square.
490
00:41:54,879 --> 00:41:56,715
The only neutrals are out
in that graveyards.
491
00:41:56,757 --> 00:41:59,137
Then you will not want
to be consorting
with the enemy.
492
00:42:04,857 --> 00:42:07,153
The war goes well
for you, huh, Major?
493
00:42:07,196 --> 00:42:08,657
You may go, Mr. Salignac.
494
00:42:20,139 --> 00:42:22,435
Red Cloud refuses to
come to the Fort.
495
00:42:22,477 --> 00:42:24,439
Is that Salignac's
doing?
496
00:42:24,481 --> 00:42:26,402
Salignac was merely
the intermediary.
497
00:42:26,443 --> 00:42:30,786
No, Red Cloud has offered
to meet us in two days
at the bend of the river.
498
00:42:30,828 --> 00:42:34,210
What would you do?I'd ride it in full force
to meet him, sir.
499
00:42:34,252 --> 00:42:37,758
And pay over the gold.If you recall, my orders
are to withhold the gold
500
00:42:37,801 --> 00:42:39,595
until we are aware of
Red Cloud's intentions.
501
00:42:41,058 --> 00:42:44,146
Are those Union orders,
or Confederate?
502
00:42:47,863 --> 00:42:50,911
There you have it.
503
00:42:50,952 --> 00:42:56,047
The bitterest choice
of all. Whether to break
your oath or your heart.
504
00:43:00,054 --> 00:43:03,436
I've always had the
greatest admiration for
your decisiveness, Jamie.
505
00:43:03,478 --> 00:43:05,649
Which call would
you listen to?
506
00:43:05,690 --> 00:43:07,320
I don't have any choice
to make, Major.
507
00:43:08,154 --> 00:43:10,451
You have now.
508
00:43:10,492 --> 00:43:14,000
I've just received word to
release all Southern troops
whose loyalty to the Union
509
00:43:14,042 --> 00:43:15,002
is in doubt.
510
00:43:28,113 --> 00:43:31,995
As my last official act,
Major Tenslip,
511
00:43:32,037 --> 00:43:34,416
you are now
Acting Commandant
of Fort Laramie.
512
00:43:36,213 --> 00:43:37,674
Effective immediately, sir?
513
00:43:38,634 --> 00:43:39,595
Immediately.
514
00:43:49,531 --> 00:43:50,826
For your first command.
515
00:43:53,415 --> 00:43:54,667
Good luck, Jamie.
516
00:43:55,586 --> 00:43:59,594
Thank you, sir.Caswell.
517
00:43:59,636 --> 00:44:01,682
Yes, sir?Will you send
Sergeant Darrach in.
518
00:44:17,506 --> 00:44:19,051
Reporting, sir,
519
00:44:19,094 --> 00:44:21,640
Sergeant Darrach,
pass the word along
that any Southern trooper
520
00:44:21,681 --> 00:44:24,688
who desires it
may receive an
honorable discharge.
521
00:44:24,730 --> 00:44:27,527
I'm ready to ride South
to Texas with them.
522
00:44:27,569 --> 00:44:29,407
What about the gold,
sir?
523
00:44:29,448 --> 00:44:35,210
Son, we can either
leave the gold or
our honor behind.
524
00:44:35,251 --> 00:44:39,050
Which would you choose?We've never questioned
the Major's orders before
525
00:44:39,093 --> 00:44:41,221
and we ain't about
to do it now.
526
00:44:42,141 --> 00:44:43,727
The gold in the safe,
Major.
527
00:44:45,982 --> 00:44:48,696
We will ride whenever
you're ready.Yes, sir.
528
00:44:51,744 --> 00:44:54,249
Major, you don't stand a
chance of getting through.
529
00:44:54,291 --> 00:44:56,378
You've got a 100 miles
of Sioux territory
to cross.
530
00:44:56,420 --> 00:44:59,844
We're no longer soldiers,
the Sioux have no
quarrel with us.
531
00:44:59,885 --> 00:45:02,891
I'm sorry, Jamie,
this is between
Red Cloud and you now.
532
00:45:04,311 --> 00:45:05,940
Now may I borrow
your office?
533
00:45:30,824 --> 00:45:34,582
Major, so Major Bradner
has made his decision.
534
00:45:34,624 --> 00:45:36,086
Someday I must
make mine.
535
00:45:36,127 --> 00:45:38,090
I will save you the
trouble, Salignac,
536
00:45:38,131 --> 00:45:40,970
I will give you exactly
15 minutes to clear out
of this Fort.
537
00:45:41,848 --> 00:45:43,392
You are a foolish man.
538
00:45:43,434 --> 00:45:47,484
No, just a careful one.
You can ride out
with the Southerners
539
00:45:47,526 --> 00:45:48,903
or go back to the Sioux.
540
00:45:48,944 --> 00:45:51,367
Oh, but you see,
again you ask me
to make a choice.
541

have a good ride.
542

I will stay here
with the others.
546
00:46:26,189 --> 00:46:29,863
If a relieving garrison
comes through, I'm sure
Jamie will see you get home.
547
00:46:29,905 --> 00:46:34,372
If it's up to Jamie, I'm
more likely to see the
inside of an internment camp.
548
00:46:35,667 --> 00:46:38,340
I suppose that's what
this is now, isn't it?
549
00:46:38,380 --> 00:46:43,182
No, it's still Fort Laramie.
Jamie's the same man.
550

You're the same woman.Bye, Uncle Seth.

one day you may have the
opportunity of fighting him.

I will move my things
from your new quarters.
555
00:49:43,638 --> 00:49:46,853
Isn't that Red Cloud himself?Yes, Major.
556
00:49:46,896 --> 00:49:49,650

for the powwow and to
receive his tribute.

come here for

00:59:45,966 --> 00:59:49,222
Salignac, what are
their chances?They don't have any.
655
00:59:55,236 --> 00:59:58,117
You can't just take
Salignac's word for it,
Jamie.
656
00:59:58,158 --> 01:00:02,333
And if I refuse his word?
The Major dies
and every man with him.
657
01:00:02,376 --> 01:00:04,923
And Red Cloud
will run wild out there.
658
01:00:04,964 --> 01:00:08,221
Now if it's a trap you will
be committing the worst
military blunder since
659
01:00:08,262 --> 01:00:10,434
the Charge of the
Light Brigade.
660
01:00:12,438 --> 01:00:16,112
The Major always knew
everything that
happened in this fort.
661
01:00:16,154 --> 01:00:18,367
You see most of it
from this window.
662
01:00:20,913 --> 01:00:22,542
Things look different
from in here.
663
01:00:24,504 --> 01:00:26,926
Maybe you can
see the view for
yourself some day.
664
01:00:32,187 --> 01:00:34,943
Call out the men.
I will take a volunteer
detachment.
665
01:00:36,404 --> 01:00:37,447
Yes, sir.
666
01:00:44,212 --> 01:00:47,594
Jamie, you are going?
667
01:00:47,635 --> 01:00:53,648
Yes.You know, you don't have
to do this for my sake.
668
01:00:53,689 --> 01:00:57,782
Melissa, if I'm sure of
nothing else,
I know this is right.
669
01:00:57,824 --> 01:01:00,996
And that's not easy
to decide any longer.
670
01:01:01,038 --> 01:01:06,007
Oh, it used to be simple
enough. Fight the enemy,
hate them, defeat them.
671
01:01:08,845 --> 01:01:11,852
But with men like
Major Bradner
on the other side, it's...
672
01:01:11,894 --> 01:01:16,320
Well, I can say no worse
of them than they fought
for what they believed in.
673
01:01:16,362 --> 01:01:18,115
I believe I have
to go to his help.
674
01:01:19,910 --> 01:01:22,082
That's the best answer
I can give you, Melissa.
675
01:01:22,124 --> 01:01:27,050
Jamie. Uncle Seth says
we're the same people,
we've always been.
676
01:01:28,303 --> 01:01:31,726
Have we changed,
you and I?
677

Oh, Jamie.
679
01:02:25,671 --> 01:02:27,384
Something I could do,
Major?
680
01:02:29,345 --> 01:02:31,725
Yes, you should get
as much sleep as
you can, Caswell.
681
01:02:31,768 --> 01:02:34,273
Yes, sir.
So should you, sir.
682
01:02:34,314 --> 01:02:39,074
Oh, I was just
stretching my legs.Well, I will walk with you.

685
01:02:58,405 --> 01:03:00,410
The Major's men
must be in the center.

Cooper.
687
01:03:03,666 --> 01:03:06,046
Yes, sir.
688
01:03:06,088 --> 01:03:09,512
I want to get through
the Sioux lines and make
contact with Major Bradner.
689
01:03:09,554 --> 01:03:13,646
Think you can find
an opening?I think I can make one.
690

Take as many men
as you need.
691

I'll only need one man.

Wake up, wake up.What is it?
694
01:04:42,288 --> 01:04:44,249
The Sioux, I think
they're sneaking up.
695
01:04:46,754 --> 01:04:49,051
What is this?I was afraid you'd walk
in your sleep, Major.
696
01:04:49,093 --> 01:04:51,014
Well, of all...
Take it off.Yes, sir.
697
01:04:52,683 --> 01:04:54,228
Over here.
698
01:04:59,656 --> 01:05:01,285

Some mess you Rebs
got yourself into.
700
01:05:03,331 --> 01:05:05,710
You alone?Major Tenslip's out there
with a detachment,
701
01:05:05,752 --> 01:05:07,339
right on the other side
of the Indian lines.
702
01:05:07,381 --> 01:05:09,635
Can you get through?I will go back
and bring them back.
703
01:05:09,677 --> 01:05:12,058
But you make sure
you hold your fire
when we get here.
704
01:05:12,099 --> 01:05:15,481
That won't be hard.
We ain't got very much
ammunition left.
705
01:05:15,523 --> 01:05:19,363
Is that right? You Southern
boys must don't know
how to fight a war, do you?
706
01:05:19,405 --> 01:05:21,744
Now listen, mister...As you were.
707
01:05:21,785 --> 01:05:23,831
We need all the help
we can get.
708
01:05:23,872 --> 01:05:25,459
We will be back
before daybreak.

Good luck.

You know, I bet you
really mean that.

We still have a surprise
waiting for them.
713
01:05:46,713 --> 01:05:47,673
Yes sir.
714
01:05:48,633 --> 01:05:51,680
Oh, you will
need this Major.
715
01:05:55,522 --> 01:05:57,359
I resigned
my commission.
716
01:05:57,400 --> 01:05:59,530
That doesn't take effect
till after the battle.
717
01:06:01,993 --> 01:06:03,538
You're still
in command, sir.
