"New York 2015"

Jimmy-

What time is it?

The farewell party doesn't matter?

Here I am

I can only stay for 30 minutes

I'm taking the 10:30 plane

What's the hurry for your first job?

Aren't we all waiting for this?

From now on

Jimmy will be a Silicon Valley bigshot

I majored in IT, too

I'm going out West, like you are

You two are together now?

Cheers

"Kill the Tiger in the Mountain"

What the...

Very funny guys, way to go

What's that?

Peking Opera

That's your hometown, Jimmy

"X on Fire"

Man, what time is your flight?

I don't think you can make it

It's a massive traffic jam

Well, Merry Christmas

"Kill the Tiger in the Mountain"

"Northeast China 1946"

1946

One year after the Japanese surrendered

China fell into a full-scale civil war

In the Northeast,

bandits went on a post-war rampage

They killed, looted... and expanded quickly

The common folk suffered, oppressed and afraid

That winter,

a PLA troop captain, code-named 203

led a squad to subdue the bandits

at Peony River

awaiting orders from headquarters

The end of the year-

winds roaring, paths blocked

After all kinds of hardships

the squad returned to their homeland

the snowfield forest

Mealtime

Mealtime

So watery?

That's all we have

Captain

En route to camp

the villagers killed by the bandits

numbered to...

Say it

At Nan Hill: 250

Gupai Village: 90

- Yangjia Creek: 120 - Tell me the total number

Give a report with the details

Total number: 603

And

we passed Guying Village without entering

Not sure about their situation

Reporting to 203

Enemies at the machine storehouse

Let's go

100 meters to the west

A dozen men outside the storehouse

wearing our military uniforms

But they don't look like our men

Not sure about conditions inside

Sir-

the smell of barbecued meat

A big load

enough for more than a dozen people

Report on the bullets

Qu has 52

Tank and Brick have 120

Baojun and Iron Pillar each have 6

It's from Tank

They've discovered us

Those men out there

don't fool around

Don't you bump into somebody

without knowing it's your bro

We're from the Tiger Mountain

Pick a name

From which gang?

How many of you?

So you're Lord Hawk's gang

He's a bandit under Hawk

This land belongs to Hawk now

Damn it

Scared me

Stop pretending

No bullshit, you're alone?

What's your name?

Wang

What do you do?

I've found lots of goodies

Sirs, come take a look

Which gang are you from?

I don't belong to any

I'm just a hunter

A hunter

And what have you hunted?

Right... what have you got?

A lot of goodies

I can't carry them all alone

That many?

Sirs, if you like, be my guest

He's not alone

The grenades collided!

Tank

They have tanks

Stop throwing grenades, let's split

Baojun

Shit, two fled

Son of a gun

They're in our uniforms

easily mistaken as our men by the villagers

The enemy poses as us

and smears our name

Before arriving at Peony River

we've entered Hawk's territory

There's thousands of men

- Way outnumbered - Reporting to 203

We've seized loads of bandit ammunition

- Is everyone okay? - Okay

Is this edible?

Some kind of delicacy?

Barbecued rat

Tank

Not bad

50 boxes in total

14,000 bullets, 500 grenades

Really? Excellent

Hong

How much food is left?

None

Tonight there's nothing to cook

Attention, please-

We will soon arrive at Harbin West Station

If you are to disembark here

please get ready

The next station is Harbin West Station

If you are to disembark here

please get ready

- Hello - Hi

Jimmy

I heard you were home

I need something from there

Why not use a courier?

You'll be fired by your company

No, I've notified them

Are you home for your girlfriend?

No

Tank

203, Train coming

203, HQ's signal

Our people

Where are you from?

Stonegate Village

There's one more

Yang

This is Comrade Yang

We were comrades in arms before

Yang, this is Captain 203

Reporting to 203

Yang, Political Division scout

Hejiang Military District

reporting for duty

The snowstorm was too heavy

but we found a train

Transfer order

This is field hospital nurse

Comrade Bai

Bai reports to the Captain

Telegraph HQ to verify

Yes

I've also brought food for you

- Food? - There

Bravo!

Open the gate

Here comes Lord Hawk

Lower the palanquin

Without my order

how dare you go downhill?

37 of you went out

and only you two dogs return

We were ambushed by the PLA

And they had tanks

They had tanks

Lord Hawk

Lord Hawk

I smell something funny

One Word:

Not Honest

Lord Hawk, those are two words

Shut up

Big brother

Take a few men downhill

and see if there's any PLA

Yes, Lord Hawk

As for you two-

Go peck them!

Bro 7

how does one become Lord Hawk?

You can't

Above all the bandits in the world

The Hawk is unparalleled

Comrade Bai

Ever shot a gun before?

What do you mean, a match?

No, just asking

Why's your frostbite bandaged like this?

- Who did it? - 203

He bandaged all our feet

This Yang doesn't behave like a scout

So sloppy

How can he fight playing like this?

Reporting to 203

HQ has replied

Saying what?

Yang knows the area, is an experienced investigator

Bai, the nurse

has been trained in battlefield rescue

Now, the area is grim and complicated

The two are sent to help

If there's a problem,

solve it yourself

Yang

Sing one more

What is it?

- See anything? - No

I've got you, get out!

- A child - A child?

From the village?

Bring him back

The wound is inflamed

- It's very serious - Gunshot

- Anaesthetic? - Serious shortage

No

Little brother, be strong

Don't struggle

Hold on-

It's almost done, hold on

It's wrapped, let him go

Eat something

- Tank - Tank

What are you doing?

He'll freeze if he runs out

This boy thinks we're bandits

Lord Hawk grabbed this secret arsenal

from the Japanese

Nobody knows how much

ammunition the Tiger Fortress has

I tell you, Commissioner Hou

They have 3,000 guns

10 mortars

10 heavy machine guns

50 light machine guns

Lord Hawk

KMT and the PLA are fighting

KMT wants to incorporate us

We've opened quite a can of worms

Bro 3 fought PLA with the Japs

Among all the bandits in the nine mountains

only he knows how to operate

this iron tortoise

Commissioner Hou, with this thing

is the other ringleader, Big Stick

even qualified to be No. 1?

Commissioner Hou,

you represent the government to bestow

the Commander of the Northeast advance troop

I can say this-

other than Lord Hawk,

nobody dares to take the position

Let's be frank-

If your gang submits to us

your respectable Hawk

will surely be the Commander of the advance troop

As for the Advance Map,

I will, of course, offer it to him

Well said

Lord Hawk, you will be the Commander

That depends on whether Hou

wants to give us the Advance Map

What map?

Advance Map

One Word:

Getting the Map depends on whether our force is strong enough

Hawk

seems to have a powerful army

But isn't a candidate for the Advance Map

Commissioner Hou, what do you mean?

The Hawk is bent on

becoming the biggest warlord in the Northeast

If he gets the Map,

he'll be a major concern

So the Commissioner means...

The Advance Map

should be given to Big Stick

Smart boy

Let the two gangs fight each other,

and we'll gather the spoils

Yesterday we ambushed the Tiger gang

Hawk must be infuriated

If a large contingent of troops comes

villagers will be hurt when the fighting starts

The next stop is Leather Creek

Before the bandits come downhill

we must settle the villagers

Hongyi and Tank are locals

They will enter Leather Creek

as village people and check out the situation

Bring Yang

and also... that...

- that... - Lil' Dove

Lil 'Dove?

We all call her that

Comrade Bai

They don't look like soldiers

If they go, it's easier to hide our identity

Stop knocking

Nobody's inside

No food, just my life

Take it if you can

Nothing left

Give them anything

Mother

Mother

Auntie

Fellow villager-

Don't be afraid

we are not bandits

Yongqi, It's me

Tank and I are back

- Hongyi - Yongqi

Tank

give me a hand

help the old lady lie down

- Mother - Let me see

She is a health officer

the same as a doctor

The lass is a doctor

Yongqi

What happened to my aunt?

It's my fault

Couldn't find food for her

Come

Auntie

Yongqi

What happened in Leather Creek?

What happened?

After the Japs surrendered,

the bandits kept coming to loot our village

We fought them

with fewer and fewer men

They took all our food

How can we go on?

Your brother and sister-in-law

and Tank's family

were also...

My boy

In the village

there are bandit spies

Who?

Couldn't find out

Reporting to 203

at your order, our men

are in villager clothes

to disguise our identity

Reporting to HQ

our troop stations at Leather Creek

203

the bandits are coming

Gao

Notify all troops: urgent assembly

Leather Creek's condition is unclear

We should hide ourselves

Protect the villagers in secret

Don't let the enemy discover us

Yes

Big brother, no sign of anything

No tank tracks, either

- Our spies? - Yes, in the village

Tell them to report on any activity

Go back

Yes

North of the logging area are two huts

The slope behind the Creek

is susceptible to bandit attack

They are numerous

We need a defense line to fight against them

Ever heard of the indigenous cannons

made by the armored troop?

The Flying Thunder? I know it

Put gunpowder in gasoline barrels

It's particularly powerful

Chaojia, you take Baojun and some soldiers

to look for gasoline barrels

Install them at crucial points in the village

Remember, this is our heavy weapon

Get ready for a fight

Yes

This is good stuff

Hard for me to find

Can't eat with your hands tied?

I can untie you, but

don't hit people again

- He fled - Come back

Shut up

You hear me? Shut up

Freeze or I'll shoot you

Shut up

Lord Hawk sends you to monitor the PLA here

- There is no PLA - That's right

He even asks me to look for tanks

Aide Luan

You left with Commissioner Hou

Why return to see Lord Hawk?

I have a map

Advance Map

Commissioner asked me to give it to Big Stick

But I'm just a messenger-

with nothing to gain

If I give it to Lord Hawk,

Not only do I get money,

but also a high position in the gang

- Agree? - Yes

Brat! How dare you bite me?

I'll roast you!

Regiment 2, Detachment 2, PLA Private

Gao-

Tell me

Why are the PLA here?

How many of you?

Brat

So tight-lipped

All right, you'll need some sweetener

Speak

No word and this leg will break

These ribs can be so tender

One stroke will break several

Don't shoot, we can talk

Rest assured

What you heard in the hut

I've reported to 203

I'm tying up the splint

- Lil' Dove - Be brave, act like a soldier

How do you feel?

- 203 - Don't move

Lie down

Reporting to 203

Ready to fight anytime

You eat, I eat

All right

You two each have a half

Tell me, what is your name?

Where is your home?

Knotti

It's okay

Knotti's last name is Jiang

He lived at Shalan Village

Six months ago, bandits killed his father

his mother Qinglian went missing

Knotti drifted about alone, looking for relatives

He bore lots of hardships

His mother must've been abducted by the bandits

I hope she's still alive

so they can reunite

It's sweet sorghum, the house is full of it

So much food

Hongyi, now our village

has food for the winter

Hoarding so much food and ammunition

this must belong to the bandits'

connecting point in Leather Creek

I can't see through Yang

What is he doing here?

HQ must've sent him for a reason

203

Let's wait and see

Sir

I just scalp tobacco for food

A mere trifle

For a trifle you beat people up like that?

You goddamn liar

I thought he was a thief

Ever heard of Advance Map?

No

Gao said

this guy wants to sell the Advance Map to Hawk

We must find the map

203

He'll confess if we beat it out of him

- This is for Gao - Don't be impetuous

We need intelligence from him

Let me try

Aide Luan

You betrayed Commissioner Hou

He sent you to deliver something to Big Stick

and you turn to Hawk

Two gangs and Commissioner Hou all in your pocket

Would Big Stick be cheated by a bastard like you?

Listen-

he also conned KMT and PLA

Big Stick joined PLA?

You're confusing me

You can't fool anyone

Listen, he has words for you

You've got the Map, but going nowhere

Hawk can't get it either

He also ordered

a grave for you at Leather Creek

Brother

your name?

Call me...

Hu

This Yang, who is he?

He's Yang from Shandong

Mr. Hu

I'm Luan

Cut the crap

I've conveyed the message

Now I'll send you to hell

Wait, Mr. Hu

do me a favor, please tell Lord Big Stick

the map is with me now

I'll always have it

I won't go to Hawk

It's a misunderstanding

It's such a big favor, how do I not do it?

I'll spare your life now

Let's wait and see

Advance Map

Report to HQ now

- Yes - Go

Wait

There's one more scoop

Fellow villagers-

Leather Creek wasn't afraid of the Japs, why would it fear bandits?

As long as we raise our guns

the bandits dare not come

There's no way to fight them

Any village that fought the bandits

was wiped out

We can't fight the bandits

Why not?

Village chief

this hard-earned harvest can't be

surrendered to the bandits for nothing

Mr. Soldier, after you leave

Leather Creek will again suffer a calamity

Hide those things right away

I beg you

I'll kneel before you

Spare our lives

We can't fight the bandits

Give me a gun

Give me a gun

- Give me a gun - Kiddie-

- you"re shorter than the gun - Give me gun

- Stop shouting - Give it to me

Give me gun, I'll avenge

- my dad's death on the bandits - Let go

Revenge is an adult business

You're still a kid

You just stay quietly at home

I have no home

You have a home

All of us are your family

So when we go fight the bandits

you take care of the home

We surely will

find your mom for you

Report, HQ knows about the Advance Map

The Advance Map shows the distribution of

over 10,000 advance soldiers in the Northeast

203, this is the reply

Advance troops were the armed forces hiding

in the mountains during the war against Japan

The Japs drew 3 military maps

based on intelligence

The Japs deployed troops

in a futile attempt to control them

After the Japs surrendered,

their forces remained in the mountains

Each went their own way

Whoever gets the three maps now

can summon the advance troops

and become king of the Northeast

The first one is a Coordinate Map

The nine mountains, 18 mounds

13 gangs

outposts, contact points, and coordinates

are all laid out on this map

This Coordinate Map

is in the hands of our Lord Hawk

The second one is an Ammunition Map

When warlord Zhang was king of the Northeast

deep in the mountains and forests

he built two arsenals

storing over 10,000 guns,

hundreds of cannons and countless ammunition

One of these two arsenals

is at Tiger Mountain

It was later taken by the Japs

And is now in Hawk's hands

Who would've thought there's an arsenal

What's the third map?

This third map is Warlord Zhang's...

Warlord Zhang's Treasure Map

- Lord Hawk - Lord Hawk

Legend has it there's 80,000 pounds of gold

80,000 pounds?

Brothers-

with 80,000 pounds of gold

we can buy as much ammunition as we like

from the Japs and the Russians

We can command Peony River

seize the Northeast

Next stop

One Word:

get the Gold Map

Luan surely doesn't know

the value of this map

Otherwise he wouldn't have given it to Hawk

This will cause a fierce bandit battle

I fear the villagers

will suffer another disaster

Strike fast

Annihilate Hawk

then eliminate Big Stick

How do we fight? Tiger Mountain has over 1,000 men

The war is raging

We're short on men

They can't support us

I have an idea-

If bandits can impersonate us,

We can send someone to impersonate them

and infiltrate their hideout

He finds the spot with the least firepower,

and that'll be our breakthrough point

When it's time, we'll coordinate from within

and wipe out Hawk in one blow

How do you gain the bandits' trust?

As an enemy intelligence scout

I was sent undercover in Big Stick's gang for a year

I studied them thoroughly

203

I want to take on this mission

Captain-

Rejected

Then what is your plan?

One way: mobilize the villagers

to flee as far as they can

Another way: arm the villagers

and wait for reinforcement

Both are too passive

Moreover, time is running out

The mountains will soon be snowed under

203, please consider my plan

You need to obey orders

All right-

Then I resign

Yang

I knew you'd do this

Okay

it's up to you

Disobey orders

Act with no permission and no discipline

You've approved my resignation

Now I ain't under you

I know you're used to acting alone

But this time is different

A minor mistake

will ruin it all

Think about it

You don't trust me

You can't go to Hawk empty-handed

This is Luan's Advance Map

- The real map? - A fake map won't fool Hawk

I made a copy and sent it to HQ

And-

according to Luan's confession

we drew this map of Tiger Mountain

Leggy

Yes

Yang

you are our anti-bandit squad

You must succeed

Don't fail us

Follow Yang into the mountains

- Keep us posted - Yes

Leggy, let's split here

Okay

Beyond this mountain

is Tiger Gang territory

From here

go downhill a ways

there's Liu Village

You should hide there

When it's time

I'll meet you here

Okay

Yang

Hide your message inside the bark

I'll check it every day

Yang'

be very careful from now on

Leggy

you know why 203 changed his mind?

Perhaps he's decided already

and waiting for your confirmation

Take care

Remember this rock

I'll try my best to approach Hawk

to find out more and inform you ASAP

If you don't hear from me after 10 days

the mission may have failed and I've been killed

Remember, the bandits are very cunning

Guard against surprise attacks

Protect the villagers of Leather Creek

Protect Little Knotti

Yang

Who are you?

Speak of the devil-

Want milk?

Mother comes

Want her relatives?

Here comes the kid's uncle

Who are you?

I'm me

Point the gun down

It's uncooked

Carry the tiger, pull the horse

Open the gate

Bring the man in

"A cloud in the black Northwest sky"

"A crow in a flock of phoenix"

"A house filled with heroes"

"Who's the king and who are the fellows?"

Your name

Last name Hu

Mr. Hu

which gang are you with?

I belong to Lord Big Stick's gang

Aide Hu, in charge of horses

What's your assignment here?

I won't say 'til I see the boss

Big brothers-

I just arrived, please bear with me

"Our master lords over tigers"

"Our pagoda seals river monsters"

What do you do?

I belong to Lord Big Stick's gang

Why do you blush?

I'm full of vigor

Why is it yellow now?

It's wax against the cold

That said,

you are under Commander Big Stick

What identity will you fake?

Big Stick has a horse aide called Hu

This man is seldom seen

Nobody recognizes him

I can borrow his identity to meet Hawk

Big Stick and Hawk are arch-enemies

Using this identity is suicidal

Exactly because of this,

Hawk will not verify

Hu, horse aide of Lord Big Stick

pays respect to Lord Hawk

When...

did you know Commander Big Stick?

When he was the Police Commissioner

I've heard he has some favorite things

Two treasures

- Which two? - Horse and sword

- What horse? - A blue-mane horse

- What sword? - A Japanese saber

- Who's gift? - The Japs Army

- Where? - At Peony River

Brother Hu-

your commander treated you well

Why do you betray him?

If I am a traitor,

you can kill me now

It's all Aide Luan's fault

He stole Lord Big Stick's Advance Map

and blamed the theft on me

Lord Hawk, give me some wine first

I eventually caught the guy

I asked him to take the map

and go back with me

Explain everything to Lord Big Stick

to his face

Guess what he said?

He said: going back means death

It'd be better to offer the map to the PLA

We'd be made battalion or regiment commanders

I pretended to agree

After he fell asleep

I stole the map

I planned to take it back to the brigade

and explain everything to Lord Big Stick

But Luan's remark alarmed me

Going back meant death

In the Peony River region

I most admire you, Lord Hawk

In for a penny, in for a pound

Taking advantage of the snowstorm

I braved Tiger Mountain

hoping to join your gang

Liar

Bullshit

You think I'm a pig?

Making up such a story

I know the rules

No gift, no joining the gang

Lord Hawk

the Advance Map of Peony River

Hu's gift

to Lord Hawk

- Any news about Yang? - Not yet

- 203 - I'll take over the shift

You get some rest

Captain

- I'm not hungry - You drink it

It's just you and me. Stop tagging along

Sister Lil' Dove said this is a mission

If you don't drink, I'll fail

Sister also said

Captain surely can't sleep afterwards

We even pinky swore

Okay, I'll drink it

Go

Knotti, come here

It's your turn

I'm telling you-

move again, and I'll cut you like a mangy dog

Lord Hawk said

to reward Hu

with the 9th Warrior Attendant position

Colonel of Security Brigade

Congratulations to the 9th Chief

Big brother,

Bro 9 can do Northeast dance duet

Stop barking

Can't you see it's your master?

Dogs

They're my pets

My house is next to yours

Come visit me anytime

None of your business

Get out

Lord Hawk's woman

Don't touch

Ma'am, leave Bro 9 a life

Get lost

Bro 7,

you get out too

Bro 9, be careful

Bro 7, Bro 9 is doomed

Lord Hawk

Let's go

Bro 9,

you're drunk

Ma'am,

why are you here?

Don't call me ma'am,

sounds so old

Call me Qinglian

Knotti's last name is Jiang

He lived at Shanlan forestry station

His mother Qinglian went missing

Bro 9, don't go

Ma'am, have you been here for over half a year?

Why rush, Bro 9?

We need to respect seniority

Ma'am,

let me pour you some tea,

roll you a cigarette

Bro 9

Who are you?

How'd you know...

Knotti is fine,

he's taken care of

He misses his mom every day

The boss sends his lady to see me

Take me to him

It's not the right time

Maybe later

I'm so grateful

I await patronage from the lady

My honor

Bro 9

- Are you all right? - Thanks for the tip

You saved my life

We're brothers

You're still alive

Brilliant!

You know how many lives were lost for her?

How did you do it?

Go out for a walk

Bro 9,

the firepower of Tiger Mountain

covers five mounts and nine bunkers

It's an impenetrable defense

Show me, open my eyes

On the opposite side

is the fortune rock

of Tiger Mountain,

the King's rock

A brilliant man once foretold

it symbolizes Lord Hawk's throne

To the north of the King's rock,

there seem to be no defenses in place

On the Eastern cliff there are open and hidden arms

Isn't the North overlooked?

It isn't

The Eagle Beak there is like a hanging lamp

Look, Bro 9,

a valley, right in the middle

So what bastards can come up here?

Only the heavenly soldiers can fly this way

Lord Hawk,

Hu joined us without being tested

It isn't proper

After the Japs retreated,

a 2,000-man troop

was defeated by eight of us

How did we do it?

Lord Hawk was astute and circumspect

You used spies

Therefore,

I hate spies the most

Bro 9

Stop barking, one of ours

- Where are you going? - I go pee

Me too

Bro 8, men aren't dogs

We can't treat them like dogs

What's wrong?

I treat them well

They're fed every day

They actually enjoy it

We can't live by bullying others

We have to be refined

Should hope for peaceful life

Peaceful life?

What is peaceful life?

Brothers, fight the PLA!

Fight the PLA!

Damn it, the PLA is here

Bro 9, grab your gun and kill the PLA

Go

Damn,

at least there's a company

Bro 9, look

Shit, aim precisely

What kind of marksmanship is that?

Blind?

Bro 9, have some fun

He dares not shoot

Son of a bitch

Bro 9

Brothers,

fight hard and kill the PLA!

Bro 9 is brilliant

Keep an eye on him

Bro 2

Stop

Bro 9,

stop at once!

Stop firing

Son of a bitch

Stop firing

Stop

Bro 9, this is a drill

Drill

They're our brothers

Our brothers

Damn you

Are you kidding me?

A drill?

Killing so many

Bro 2

The men are here...

you might as well give them to me

I'll take them downhill

to practice looting

Lord Hawk, what do you think?

Tell Bro 5,

if Hu plays a trick on us,

bring back his corpse

Sure thing

- Bro 5, you lead the way - Okay

Brothers,

follow my orders

We go downhill, we start looting

This is a rotten idea of testing Hu

At least it proves Hu

isn't a PLA spy

One Word:

Why weren't you down there, being blown up too?

Brothers,

let's race to the opposite slope

No. 1 gets $5

No. 2 gets $3

No. 3 gets $1

Charge!

Bro 8,

I remember

there was a grove

When was it cut down?

Really?

Maybe it's for the winter

Before the snow'll seal off the mountain,

we must gather enough firewood

Lord Hawk forbids the felling of trees uphill

So our brothers must have chopped these down

Clever, it's a shortcut

Son of a bitch

My belly aches

You wait here

I'll find a place

Mine aches, too

You wait here, I'll go as well

What do you want?

Let's follow

I'd say...

watching me crap?

That's new!

You got shit in there?

Then take a crap

No shit? Don't crap

And don't watch

I'm talking to you

Idiots

- Shit! - Take a hike!

- Ignore him - I can't crap with you here

Never had to crap with live gunfire

Bro 5, is there a trick to it?

You wanna kill Bro 8, too?

He's taking a crap, too

Bro 8,

brought any paper?

Just pick it out

I'm not used to that

Forget it, I'll handle it myself

What are you two up to?

Interested in your dad's butt?

Like to watch?

Don't you ever crap again

Once you do it,

I'll shoot your butts

Stop nagging

- One more word I'll geld you - What?

Nonsense

Goddamn enjoyable

They're after my butt

Who's after your butt?

You son of a bitch

No respect for your elders

We're all brothers

Let's go

Yang suggests that

we go up Tiger Mountain's north cliff

and sneak attack the Tiger Fortress

On the map,

the north side of Tiger Fortress

faces Eagle Beak

Who's been to Eagle Beak?

I've heard of it, but never been there

I've been there. I'll lead the way

You've been to Eagle Beak?

My dad used to take me

I know how to get there

But it's all precipices, can we manage?

If Yang suggests it,

he knows

I can go up there

Knotti, let's go

and prepare the skis

- You know how to ski? - Who doesn't?

Okay

Go

Chaojia, you take five men

and scout with Knotti at Eagle Beak

Yes

Knotti's mother Qinglian

is on Tiger Mountain and she's fine

Don't tell Knotti

Remember, we can't let him know

Knotti, follow me

- Don't lag behind - Try to catch up

Little Knotti,

come closer and don't get lost

Closer

Knotti, slow down

Catch up with him

Don't lose him

That's something, Knotti

You ski really fast

We should be your apprentices

What does that mean?

Learn skiing from you

No problem, that's easy

There's Eagle Beak

Let's split up and check it out

Go

Yang says opposite to Eagle Beak is

the Northern cliff of Tiger Mountain

But the cliff is too steep

What?

You bragged that

nothing could stop you

You're cowering now?

I have an idea

You sing well, Lord Hawk

Where is Knotti?

Take me to him

Listen to me

I found this in Hawk's coat

This is Tiger Mountain's map of secret paths

We can escape with it

If Hawk discovers it,

no one can escape

Listen,

put the map back immediately

You should know

Tiger Mountain isn't a place you can escape from

Run now

Before he discovers it, we'll be gone

Can't leave now

If you're not taking me away,

why did you mention Knotti?

Who are you?

You drank too much

I'm just Bro 9 of Tiger Mountain

Cut the crap

If I die,

you can't shirk the responsibility

You two...

what responsibility?

As Bro 9,

you should tell if you're leaving

Get out with your hands up

Later, insist the map is on him

Stand still

Use your left hand

to give me your gun

Who shot?

Lord Hawk, it's me

I saw your lady trying to elope with Bro 9

So I fired to alert you

Really?

Lord Hawk,

My conscience is clear

Hang him up

Tie him up

Later, insist that the map is on him

It's him

I saw him steal from Lord Hawk's house

I asked Bro 9 to help me catch him

Now he's faking a counter-charge

A thief accusing thieves

You...

Lord Hawk

Lord Hawk

I didn't, I swear I didn't

Confess

Lord Hawk, I really didn't

I kept an eye on your wife

to see if she'd be disloyal to you

That's very kind of you

Lord Hawk, this is a misunderstanding

Is he a thief, or not?

Search him and find out

Lord Hawk, if I've done anything wrong,

I'll shoot myself

Search

This...

This really... isn't mine

Use your left hand, and give me your gun

Lord Hawk, it really isn't mine

- I'm being framed - Of course it isn't yours

It's mine

Lord Hawk, I'm being framed

Big brother,

you brought him here

Tell me...

what should be done?

Big brother

Big brother

Don't, Big brother

Lord Hawk

See you in the next life

Whoops

Missed the target

Lord Hawk,

I'm Bro 4's guarantor

I should be punished

No

Forget it

Now you owe me your life

You can pay me back later

Lord Hawk

Lord Hawk

Thank you, Lord Hawk

Lord Hawk

How about Bro 9?

- What's that? - Again

What's that?

- Come on - Don't move

- Grab the tile - Don't blame it on me

- It's all your fault - My fault?

I haven't won all night

What tile did you give out?

My turn

I win, Royal Flush, 148 points

- Pay up, everybody pay up - All the same suit

- Pay up - Paying

- Lend me some money - No

Bro 6, no way

Bro 6, no way

You bastard, listen up

Loaning money to me is an honor, get it?

Can't pay your losses?

Then don't play

It's enough

The village spies've been silent

Lord Hawk

Big brother,

the spies you sent

are either living in peace

or were killed by the PLA

Tomorrow, take Bro 5, Bro 6

and 300 men downhill

If PLA is really down there,

treat it as an exercise

Before the snow seals off the mountain,

kill the sheep and come back for New Year

Yes, Lord Hawk

The bandits are coming

The bandits are coming

How many of them? How far away?

Over 200 men

About 2 miles from the village

Tank

Order all the units to get ready for combat

- Set up three defense lines - Yes

- Detonator - Yes

How about the Flying Thunder?

Can detonate at any time

Gao, tell Yongqi

to gather the villagers

- Keep a close eye on Luan - Yes

Listen carefully,

move around when you fight,

so that the enemy can't figure out our numbers

Buddha of infinite light, please bless us

Quit your racket

No use praying

If you attract the bandits here,

We'll all die

Little Knotti, don't be afraid

We hid in a hut like this last time

They all died

Everybody died

I don't wanna die

- I wanna go home - Don't make a noise

Don't worry, this time is different

This time, we're here

Fire

Fire

Damn it,

they have cannons

Must be PLA's primary force

Follow me

Shut up

you bastard

You won't be rescued

Stop dreaming

Shut up

Charge

Little Knotti, it's okay

Knotti

Knotti

Little Knotti

Leggy

Leave the roof now

Damn it

Damn it

Big brother

Someone's firing from the tower

- Load the gun - Yes

Let me through

Knotti

Stay here

Knotti's gone out, let me out

Okay

Be careful

Get ready

Wait

Who's there 100 feet ahead?

They're in firing range

The village chief

Go away

Go

- Hongyi - Yes

The west side has fallen

You must hold on

Yes

Knotti

No more in the cartridge, go get it

Yes

Little Knotti

Stay here, don't move

Hold on

Give the bullets to Tank

Give the bullets to Tank

Knotti

Brick

Brick

Brick

He said to give Tank the bullets

Knotti

Knotti

Ready for a match?

I'll go distract them

Don't move or I'll shoot you

Knotti

Ammunition box

Bro 6

Big brother

Bro 6

Where is Bro 5?

Haven't seen him

Guess he's fled

Don't hesitate, Big brother

let's withdraw

Withdraw

Brick...

The others?

Auger, Xiaoliang

Wheel and Steel Wrist

are all injured

And...

203

Captain

It's all my fault

I'm useless

I let that bastard Luan

slip away

Leggy, let's chase

Chase who?

Luan

If we can't find Luan

Yang will be in danger

Bro 9, look

your old pal is here

Aren't you Brother Luan?

When did you come to Tiger Mountain?

It's you?

It's me

Hu

What's going on, brother?

Last month we're at Leather Creek

trying to decide which gang to join

You dragged me to the PLA

Only a short while later

you're wearing the PLA uniform

Are you a regiment or battalion commander now?

Hu

You've all been duped

Lord Hawk

he's a PLA spy

Bullshit

You say our Bro 9

is a PLA spy

Brother Luan

that's a vicious thing to say

You called me a PLA spy

Don't forget, it was you who asked me to join

Now you're giving me this shitty unfair label

Wanna lend Lord Hawk a knife to kill me

- You're lying - Did the PLA send you?

Lord Hawk and all big brothers

Let this bastard explain

how he knows I'm a PLA spy

and how he he's so familiar with the PLA

You killed my brother at Leather Creek

You stole my things

Lord Hawk, the fur coat he's wearing

was originally my gift for you

Luan

if you were captured by the PLA,

How'd you get back here so quickly?

Why are you wearing a PLA uniform?

Did the goddamned PLA send you to Tiger Mountain?

I'm wearing this to evade

the PLA spies

Lord Hawk

How many PLA soldiers are down there?

20, no-

30

Bullshit

30 men, equipped with cannons?

When did Leather Creek get cannons?

Lord Hawk

I think the PLA at least have a regiment down there

How else could they kill so many?

Lord Hawk, they really only have 30

That means only

30 PLA soldiers

were able to reduce 300 of our men

to fewer than 50

And killed Bro 5, too

Bullshit

Luan, it's damn strange that you're suddenly here

Tell me why or I'll shoot you

Say it

Big brothers-

Today

Today, every word I say is true

I swear to god

Lord Hawk

Lord Hawk

To offer tribute, I offended this mad dog

If I don't have my revenge, I'm less than a man

Today, at Tiger Mountain

either he lives or I live

If I'm a PLA spy

you can kill me right now

Whether I'm an outsider or your man

you decide

Lord Hawk

there's no problem with Bro 9

He really is PLA

I did run away from Leather Creek, Lord Hawk

Whether he's lying or not

I know the answer

Today you come to join our gang

you must have a gift

Lord Hawk, everything

has stolen by the PLA

Did he snatch this?

Lord...

Lord Hawk

This map, Lord Hawk

he took it from me

It's him

What a mess

It's getting more confusing

Who do I listen to?

I'd rather leave it to you

Lord Hawk

don't shoot, Lord Hawk

I know you don't believe me

But if you go check out Leather Creek

you'll know it's a PLA trap

Big brother, it seems you have to go again

Damn you

I just got ambushed at Leather Creek

You ask me to go again

You want all my brothers killed?

Don't hit

Lord... Lord Hawk

Truly, there's only 30 PLA soldiers

Kill him!

I know Leather Creek well

Now, while they're still recuperating,

I'll take you to wipe them out

Bro 9

Your gun, your mission

Lord Hawk, entrust it to me

Every word I say is true

And you wanna kill me

I've lied all my life

Speak to a saint like a saint, a devil like a devil

I've been safe and gained wealth

I didn't expect the first time I tell the truth

I'd die in the hands of a liar

No use saying that now

Let's go, Bro 2

203, urgent intelligence

Luan is killed by Yang

On New Year's Eve

A banquet will be held at Tiger Hall

At 1 a.m.

I'll blow up the west wall to welcome you

Gao

Brick

you two stay at Leather Creek

Salute the two

comrades in arms

I know you don't want me to go with you

You've never treated me as a soldier

No

you've taken good care of the warriors

They're grateful to you

But for the Tiger Mountain battle

- in case we... - And you're the soldier?

What's the duty of a soldier?

To protect himself?

Liars

My mom and dad are dead

Brother Gao died

Which of you protected them?

I'm telling you, Gao died protecting us

What you're saying isn't fair

Your mom and dad sacrificed for you

Have you gone crazy?

- Get up - Get up for what?

Knotti

Listen to me, your mom is still alive

Yang sent word

your mom is on Tiger Mountain

Knotti

she's still alive, do you hear me?

She's still alive

Understand?

Still alive...

Tank

the villagers want to see the Captain

Captain

The villagers heard that

you're attacking Tiger Mountain tonight

Today is Lunar New Year's Eve

They want to treat all of you

to a New Year's Eve family dinner

A snowstorm is coming

We have to arrive at Eagle Beak before dark

Every minute counts

We'll have family dinner when we return

Fellow villagers-

thank you

- Get ready to set off - Yes

Don't go, I'll go so I can find my mom

Lil' Juan

what are you doing? Come here

Knotti

At Tiger Mountain, you can only wait outside

- This is an order - Okay

Lil' Dove, Knotti is entrusted to you

Light the lanterns

"Boundless longevity"

Here enters the birthday star, the invincible

Lord Hawk

Would the birthday star take his seat

The birthday banquet begins now

Serve the food and wine

Lord Hawk

Lord Hawk

Elders and brothers-

today is the 60th birthday

of our Lord Hawk

and also New Year's Eve

A double blessing has descended upon us

A family of 1,000 members, ruled by one man

Our gang is large and prosperous

thanks to boss' leadership

Come, raise your glasses

Let's all wish our boss

a happy birthday

and many more to come

Bottoms up

Get out of the way

Lord Hawk

Some of our brothers

saw the lady run towards

the Northwest corner on a horse

We've brought her back

Hang her up

Hang her up

Grab your guns, quick

What?

What?

Charge

Get out of the way, quick

Lord Hawk, the arsenal's been robbed

We're under siege

Hawk

retribution comes to all, eventually

Catch the traitor

This traitor must've come from outside

Hands up

You're the only outsider here

They're my brothers in arms

I suspected one day

Tiger Mountain would be infiltrated

But before you succeed

my role to play

is to kill you

Big brother

I spared your life

today you should repay me

Shield me when I flee

Yes, Lord Hawk

Hawk has fled

Disarm and surrender

Freeze

Stop resisting

Disarm and we won't kill you

Hands up

We're the PLA

Drop your weapons and we won't kill you

Bro 9

Put down your guns

- Put down your guns - Don't

Baojun, ignore me

I'll say it once more

put down your guns

- 203 - Baojun

ignore me

I'll count to three

Put down your guns or I'll shoot him

1

2

Bro 9

Bro 9

Morn

Knotti

Mom

It's over

I hope Knotti's generation

won't see war again

Right

you asked to resign

HQ does not object

because I've never reported to them

It seems you and the squad

will take on the next mission

This is an order

Yes, Captain

- Grandma - My boy

- Eat the fish - Smells good

Haven't tasted Grandma's fish in so long

Eat more

Why are there so many guests?

What guests?

They are all our family

It's the New Year, we're having family dinner

As we do every year

Lad, you've grown up

Grandpa

You haven't been home in years

Sit down, sit down

Good timing! We can have family dinner

together on New Year's Eve

Dig in

Oh, and-

when I was little, grandpa said

Tiger Mountain had a hidden airstrip

If I'm to imagine

Yang's saving grandma

it might have been like that

You son of a bitch

Who the hell are you?

Put down your gun

One Word:

I assure your life

I assure your death

One Word:

I won't say one word
