Xuan did this

clearly because he suspected

someone conspired with Lu Yuan.

How would he know?

Your Highness.

San Bao is missing.

What?

I suspect

that His Highness saved San Bao.

That's why His Highness,

is being suspicious.

Probably not.

Given Xuan's character,

he'll surely take San Bao here to question me.

You must find San Bao

and get rid of him.

Yes.

His Highness

has sent reinforcements to the North today.

It looks like

His Highness already knows

that all the good news from the frontier

are fake.

If so

we must act more carefully now.

Let's not meet again any time soon.

I shall take my leave then.

Central Protector.

Huo Yun

has brought reinforcements

to the south of Xuyi County.

Great.

Huo Yun is fast indeed.

It looks like I've underestimated him.

He makes a good commander.

But no matter how fast he is,

he's going down to hell anyway.

Anyone who opposes you

will end up that way sooner or later.

Xue Qiu.

Do you think

King Peng Cheng will end up dead in having the peace talks?

There'll be an impending disaster

for King Peng Cheng.

That's not good enough.

The Song of Glory

I want him to have no way out.

Episode 34

Guys, chop-chop.

Yes.

Oil all these rope nets

and dry them.

Everything has been deployed

from the main road to the city.

Your Highness.

With this method,

once the Wei army enters the city,

they'll surely be caught off guard.

Continue the deployment, and make it snappy.

Yes.

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

There are still no traces of reinforcements

north of Xuyi County.

Matou City

Still

Still

Since there's no way out,

why bother thinking?

I have to think about

the lives of the people in the city

and the gateway of Song.

The people can retreat south.

The soldiers are born to fight.

The gateway of Song

must be protected.

Fourth Brother.

I believe that all the soldiers in the city

are willing to fight with you.

Are you afraid?

As long as we are together,

I'm not afraid of anything.

Your Highness!

In the Battle of Red Cliffs,

Sun Quan and Liu Bei used 50,000 troops

and defeated Cao Cao's army of 230,000 troops.

In the Battle of Guandu,

Cao Cao used 20,000 troops

to defeat Yuan Shao's army of 130,000 troops.

In the Battle of Julu,

Xiang Yu used 50,000 troops

and defeated the Qin army of 400,000 troops.

Where there's a will, there's a way.

Burn our boats.

All things come to those who wait.

Even without reinforcements,

do you have the confidence

to defeat the Wei army?

Do you have the confidence to defend Matou?

-Yes! -Yes!

Xu Zhan, take the order.

Yes!

Set out at once

and head to south to meet the reinforcements.

Yes, Your Highness!

Li Chengxun.

Yes!

Arrange for the people to go south as soon as possible.

Yes, Your Highness!

Shen Zhi.

Yes.

Step up defence in the city.

I'll never give up the city in exchange for peace.

The battle of Matou

is inevitable.

Yes, Your Highness.

Don't worry, Your Highness!

We'll fight to defend Matou to the death!

Great!

Act at once.

Matou City

Have you brought enough food

for the people?

We have brought everything that we can.

Folks.

The battle of Matou is inevitable.

But don't worry.

We won't give up on Matou.

All our soldiers

will fight to the end.

We will use the last bit of effort

to defend your home.

So for your safety

I'll send you out of the city.

Aren't we leaving together?

Your Highness, we're not leaving.

We'll fight the Wei army

with you, Your Highness!

This is our home.

We'll defend it together!

I understand how you feel.

But fighting a battle is the duty of soldiers.

Please follow

General Li's arrangements

and leave the city as soon as possible.

Not only Your Highness is defending Matou

for our sake,

you have given us

all the food.

We won't leave if Your Highness stays.

That's right. We won't leave.

We can go to the battlefield.

We can kill enemies!

We'll fight to defend Matou to the death!

We'll fight to defend Matou to the death!

We'll fight to defend Matou to the death!

We'll fight to defend Matou to the death!

We'll fight to defend Matou to the death!

All right.

Stay!

We'll kill the enemies together.

Defend Matou to the death!

Defend Matou to the death!

Defend Matou to the death!

Defend Matou to the death!

Defend Matou to the death!

Defend Matou to the death!

Defend Matou to the death!

Defend Matou to the death!

Make sure you're full.

Lige.

Coming!

Everyone will get their portion!

This is for you.

Thank you.

Good girl.

Here.

Thank you.

Thank you.

For you.

Have you drunk it?

I drank it long ago.

All right.

Your stomach is growling. Trying to fool me, huh?

You go first.

War is coming.

You can't fall sick. You drink.

You're right.

I'll drink then.

You don't have to worry now.

Look how loving you are.

So?

When are you going

to marry her?

Shut up.

It's none of your business.

What do you mean by that?

Don't you want to marry Ms. Zijin?

I...

I didn't say that.

That's the way.

If you want to marry her, just say it!

When will that be?

I...

You blockhead!

When? Are you going to marry her?

Yes!

Your Highness.

Do it tonight.

With the military drums as music,

I shall officiate the wedding

for Shen Zhi and Wang Zijin.

May you both join hands and be united

and stay together forever.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Give them flowers. Go on.

Tonight

I call on heaven and earth

and King Peng Cheng to witness

that I, Shen Zhi

am willing to take Wang Zijin as my wife

to have and to hold

from this day forward.

Are you willing to marry me?

Where did this wine come from?

Didn't they use the wine to soak the wood

because of a shortage of oil in the city?

I secretly

stashed some away.

Just a little.

Did you make these dishes

yourself?

Of course.

Who else could it be?

It looks quite good.

Take a seat and give it a try.

Here.

Of course, I have to give it a try.

King Peng Cheng, here.

How is it?

How does it taste?

There's a shortage of salt. It's not your fault.

It's too bland.

How about this?

There's a shortage of firewood.

It's not your fault.

It's not cooked.

This one. Try that.

-And this too. -All right.

This is definitely good.

When we're back to Jian Kang City,

you can prepare another meal for me.

I want to eat your cooking for a lifetime.

But why would it be...

Let's drink.

Cheers.

Now that I think of it,

the first time I saw you

was at Great Consort Sun's birthday banquet.

If so,

the first time we met

is at the dance house.

The dance house?

The person sitting in the private room on the second floor

was you?

Weren't you the dancer

with the mask?

Back then,

you were still

my sworn enemy.

You came after me

with the sword.

But you're now the one I love

whom I shall never give up on.

I practised the Dance to Send Soldiers

for so many years.

♫ As we brushed shoulders, I have fallen in love with you ♫

It was because of grievance.

But never did I expect

that it got me a fated love in return.

♫ Love you ♫

I deeply cherish it.

♫ The flowers were blooming ♫

♫ It gathers a lifetime of misery ♫

Fourth Brother.

Thank you.

♫ Recall the memories when the flower blooms again ♫

Why don't

I dance for you again today?

♫ Our fate isn't us to decide ♫

♫ Our destiny is in your hands ♫

♫ I'm willing to stay by your side forever ♫

♫ Never leave your side ♫

♫ If it weren't for the chanting ♫

♫ Looking out in the midsummer ♫

♫ The heart is crying and obsessed ♫

♫ I fall in love with the wrong person but I'm so madly in love with you ♫

♫ What's wrong if I put up a tough front? ♫

♫ Time bestows upon us the rays of light ♫

♫ Forbidden words are like entangled swords ♫

♫ It feels as if my heart is pierced with knives ♫

♫ Let's not be involved in this world that's full of troubles ♫

♫ Yearn and fight for love ♫

♫ The back of your view that keeps lingering ♫

♫ It ignites the sorrow in my heart ♫

♫ As we brushed shoulders, I have fallen in love with you ♫

♫ Love you ♫

Your Highness.

Go on.

The Wei army has arrived the location of peace talks.

Got it.

♫ You're drunk but still pretended to be sober ♫

♫ The world that is chasing fate and hatred ♫

♫ Let go everything and chase your desire bravely ♫

Matou City

Tell me.

What's behind you?

The great Song!

Who's behind you?

The people of Song!

The great Song

is our home!

The people of Song

are our family!

Our army of 20,000 troops

shall guard this final barrier

for them!

Can we defend it?

Yes!

All right.

Even if we are weak, we can succeed in unity!

Our army of 20,000 troops

will defend Matou to the death!

The Wei army

wants to invade our homeland!

Over

our dead bodies!

Show them what you've got!

Deal a fatal blow to the Wei army!

Perhaps,

they can take away our lives!

But

they can never

take away our homeland!

Yes!

Li Chengxun! Shen Zhi!

-Yes! -Yes!

You'll be in charge of Matou.

Matou is your top priority.

So are the people.

We'll defend Matou to the death!

Matou City

King Peng Cheng is young.

Sure enough, he has a lot of guts.

As expected of someone

who was promoted to General of Guanjun at the age of 12.

You're flattering me.

Since we agreed to a truce and peace talks...

Here's a toast for you

to show my great hospitality.

Hold on.

This is the territory of the Song.

I'm the host.

By right

I'm the one

who should give you a toast.

Please.

Your available forces

must be stretched out.

You putting up a desperate struggle

isn't a long-term solution.

But I heard

your troops

are half-starved

with very limited supplies.

If you have a strong army,

why bother coming here?

After this battle,

both armies will suffer great casualties

and morale will be greatly undermined.

If we keep this going,

it will do neither of us any good.

I come here with sincerity.

King Peng Cheng, why don't you set aside prejudice

to strike a deal?

Go on.

As long as you're willing

to give up Peng Cheng and Matou,

we'll withdraw our troops at once.

Matou and Peng Cheng

are my northern fortresses.

Your proposal

is no different

from asking me to hand over the north of the Yellow River.

Do you take me for a child?

You can just save

this so-called sincerity for yourself.

Don't be so quick to refuse.

My sincerity

goes beyond that.

Father?

As long as King Peng Cheng

agrees to my terms,

I can keep General Shen

safe and sound.

Otherwise...

Your Highness!

Don't succumb to Wei army

for the sake of me!

Don't surrender our territory under humiliating terms!

I have always respected

the spirit of General Shen.

Otherwise, I would have killed you.

You just won't take the easy way out!

King Peng Cheng.

What do you say?

Wan Jingsheng.

You've exhausted your supplies

and lost your vanguard camp.

You should be humble and sue for peace.

Instead, you're blowing your own trumpet.

Since you're here to negotiate peace,

why resort to violence?

Just discuss it slowly.

You should know

General Shen is the general of the Suiyuan Army.

These people are all subordinates

of General Shen of the Suiyuan Army.

If anything happens to General Shen,

I'm afraid

I won't be able to hold them back.

General Chen.

Matou is ten miles ahead.

The gate is closed

and there is no guard on the city wall.

That's a good strategy that General Wan has.

March forward!

His Highness said

that cunning Wan Jingsheng

will not be sincere to have peace talks.

We have no idea what's going on.

Wan Jingsheng.

You're a real heel!

Sure enough, King Peng Cheng

couldn't bear to give up Matou and Peng Cheng.

You've been buying time

to wait for your reinforcements to come.

Kill!

Charge forward!

Charge forward!

Matou City

Charge forward!

Matou City

Father.

Your Highness, leave!

Father.

Father!

Let's go.

Let's go to Jiufeng Mountain.

The peace talks failed.

Central Protector.

Should we head back to Matou?

Not just yet.

Divide our people

into two groups.

One group

will come with us to catch Liu Yikang.

The other group

will stay and wait for further instruction.

Catch Liu Yikang?

Wan Jingsheng

has forced them

across the river.

If Liu Yikang wants to survive,

he'll have to get to Jiufeng Mountain.

But whether he can get out of it alive

depends on his fate.

What lies ahead of us

is Yixian Tian, the Pangu's territory.

Be careful.

Pangu people are good at laying traps.

Follow me.

The Wei army wouldn't dare to enter.

General.

Let's go!

There are people who live here.

But where are they?

Don't touch it.

Don't touch anything.

Why are we back here again?

Jiufeng Mountain is a strange place.

After so long,

we're still going around in circles.

Help!

Help!

They went into the mountains.

It's time for us to make a move.

Let go of me!

Mei Qi.

Mei Ya, let me go!

Let me go!

Mei Qi.

She viciously killed her father

and hid the chief's badge of authority.

Such heinous crime!

You were the one who caused my father's death.

You're the real culprit!

The chief died a sudden death

after drinking the soup

that you made for him.

Clan elders.

You stand witness

that this girl is an unfilial daughter!

According to our clan rules,

she should be burned and be offered as a sacrifice!

Deputy Chief.

We watched Mei Qi grew up.

I think she wouldn't do such a thing.

Could there

be a misunderstanding?

A misunderstanding?

There's no misunderstanding.

Kill him!

-Elder! -Elder!

-Elder! -Elder!

Elder!

Mei Ya!

Don't kill the innocent!

You're not human!

Elder!

Elder!

Now.

Does anyone still think there's a misunderstanding?

Mei Qi.

If you don't want to see

anyone else die for you again,

hand over the chief's badge of authority at once.

I'm going to kill you.

I'm going to kill you!

You want the chief's badge of authority?

Bah!

In your dreams!

My father will never

hand over the chief's badge of authority to you.

You were the one who killed my father!

The cuss you are!

All right.

I shall burn you

to offer sacrifice

to heaven

on behalf of the clan.

You dare?

Send a team there.

The rest come with me.

Warrior.

Miss, are you all right?

I'm fine.

Mei Ya.

You've got what you deserved.

Warrior, come with me.

Let's go.

Fourth Brother!
