Your Majesty, punish Captain
Yi Soon-shin by death.

Defeated captain Yi Soon-shin
must be executed for his crime.

Do you speak sincerely? I know
that he is a dear friend of yours.

Do you sincerely recommend
a death sentence?

Yes, Your Majesty.

You do now the punishment for
trifling with the King, I'm sure.

How is your wound, Captain?

It's fine.
Don't worry.

When will you be coming back?
Everyone is waiting for you.

You will have him back soon.
So go back and wait for him.

Really, sir?

The Minister of Military was here.
His Majesty will know the truth

about what happened here, so he
will send Captain Yi back to Chosan

Fort and take the necessary
measures to defend the six camps.

So trust that all will be well
and go back to your camp.

Soon-shin, politics know no mercy.

I am forced to gamble with your life...

Garrison Captain of Chosan Yi Soon-shin
and Constable of Kyung-heung

Yi Kyung-lok, receive your sentence!

Hear me, criminal Yi Soon-shin!
As a warrior of Chosun, your duty

is to fight to he death and protect
the country against the enemy.

You have failed to render your duty thus
committing a crime against the state.

You have failed to maintain discipline
among your men and neglected your

defenses against the enemy.

By abandoning your subordinates and
and civilians on the battlefield

you have caused devastating defeat.

How could your punishment
be anything less than death?

But you made a brief effort saving
a number of lives, and for this I

spare you from death.

You are to serve the military without
official rank and redeem your crime

with devoted service.

A demotion, a discharge, and now
he is to serve as a common soldier.

Yi Soon-shin, that fellow,
has all kinds of trophies!

A captain abandons his men
and runs away from the battle,

and he is allowed to live.
What is this country coming to?

- Lt. Yi.
- Yes, sir

You have an important duty.

From this moment on, you are
in charge of Chosan Fort.

Don't even think about giving
Yi Soon-shin special treatment just

because he was the former captain.

Go out there and show
them who is in charge.

Let them know what happens to those
who desert their men and betray their

comrades and discipline will be
tightened without extra effort.

Ca... captain...!

Captain...!

What is the meaning of this?

Captain, what happened?

Who are you calling captain?

At ease!

You are not to stand in attention
before a common soldier?

What do you mean a common soldier?

This man is now a common soldier
just like the rest of you.

Do not address him as sir
or you will be punished!

That's absurd! How could the
captain become a common soldier?

A captain is always a captain?
Who has ever heard of that?

Don't you dare talk back to me!

Do you have a problem, soldier?
Are you going to defy your superior?

You little...!

What's this? Are you going to
defy your superior as well?

You don't still consider
yourself the captain, do you?

You two, take this man outside
and strap him on a torture rack!

I will teach him a lesson
for defying a superior!

I am Lt. Yi Unryong! I will be in
charge of Chosan Fort until a new

caption is appointed! Remember,
this man is no longer your captain!

If any of you are caught calling this
man sir, all of you will be punished!

Take him away!

Captain you have to
stop this! Please, sir!

Didn't you hear my order?

Pathetic imbecile!

Mother!

What are you doing here, Myun?

A letter was delivered.
It's from the capital city.

The capital city?

Sister-in-law, what is it?

Good news, I hope?

Yes, of course.

Yun-hwa.

Yes, Mother.

Let's sit down.

Are you going somewhere?

Yes. I'm going home, um, a cousin
of mine is getting married, so...

It's rough traveling to the north.

Mother...!

Judging by the hurry you are in,
it must not be good news.

It's a long and rough road.

Not an easy road for a
woman to travel alone.

I'm afraid he is all alone...

You want us to go back
to Nok-dune Island?

Not one hundred and fifty
but with just fifteen of us?

Do you know how many barbarians
are out there across the river?

If you're curious, go see
for your self, Lieutenant.

It's an order! You know what
happens if you defy an order.

Why don't you just kill us yourself
right here? We're dead either way!

You! Carry out your order now!

If you want to kill me, go ahead!

Say something! You know
this is insane, Cap...!

Darn, I think he's going to go.

Sir!

For you, sir.

I can't figure it out.

Yi Soon-shin is a defeated captain who
abandoned his men on the battlefield.

That means those men
were abandoned as well.

I thought his men would want to kill
him the moment he returned here as a

common soldier, but...
I just don't understand...

That's all right. I got it.

Sir...

Yi Soon-shin has
accepted his sentence.

Would you if you
were in his shoes?

I couldn't.

How could I serve as a common soldier
under the subordinates that used to

serve me? I'd rather kill
myself. How about you, sir?

Neither could I. It is an
indignity worse than death.

I'm sure it is for
Captain Yi as well.

Then...?

I spent my childhood
with Yi Soon-shin.

And we trained in martial
arts under the same master.

Yi Soon-shin I know is a
man of extraordinary will.

He would think nothing of giving
up his life to preserve his will.

But he is enduring the shame
of serving as a common soldier.

It can't be simply for survival.
There has to be another reason.

The King and the royal court has
ignored those that died in battle,

and now they are giving up
on the survivors as well.

But I am helpless to protect them...

The only thing I can
do is to be with them.

To die with them is
all that I can do now...

Break up the tribal alliance?
What do you mean?

We are going back!

We fought together as an alliance
but we have failed to conquer an

inch of land!

This is an embarrassment!

We have not failed at
anything. It is by choice.

What in heavens name do you mean?

Do you care to
explain the reason?

The reason?

Ilsu! Ilsu!

Over, over...

What's over? Calm down!
What's over?

Over there!

Ilsu!

The barbarians!
The barbarians are coming!

Attack!

Fire!

Stop!
The enemy is before us!

Huh? That's...!

That's Yi Soon-shin, sir.

Don't be hasty, Sassonga.

But sir!

We can't kill the greatest
warrior of Chosun like this.

So you're the one
named Yi Soon-shin!

I had hoped for a
chance to meet you.

No, I should say that I had
hoped for a chance to fight you

since among the countless warriors of
Chosun, you are the most prudent and

alert leader I have ever seen.

How would you like to work for me?

I'll make you my right-hand man.

Chosun has forsaken you, but
I am willing to take you in.

But if you refuse, I will have
no choice but to take your life.

It's most fortunate that
Chosun has forsaken you.

If you were still in a position of
power, I would have a tough fight

ahead of me.

That will do for today.

But the next time I will take your
life together with this island.

Let's go!

How do we stop them?
Propose a solution!

Didn't you hear me?
Say something! Anything!

You...!

You are the one in command of
Chosan Fort now, Lieutenant.

You are the one who
has to think for us.

Now do you understand? Nok-dune
Island is as good as ours.

If all we wanted was Nok-dune, we
would've conquered it long ago.

But we are after the
entire six camps.

That is why we have to hide
ourselves from the enemy for a while.

Yi Soon-shin has seen our strength
and size, but it appears the rest of

Chosun does not believe him. They
wouldn't have punished him if they did.

They still see us as petty thieves
that raid their villages for food.

Then this may be the
perfect time to attack.

The six camps are unlike Nok-dune
Island. Think about Itangae.

He had rallied an army of 50.000,
but it crumbled against Chosun army.

Remember, what we want now
is war not random raids.

And this alliance is not
large enough for a war.

We need time to consolidate
all of the Jurchen tribes.

Meanwhile, we cannot allow Chosun
to strengthen their defense.

That is the reason why we have
not conquered Nok-dune Island.

Are these Yi Soon-shin's journals
prior to the barbarian attack?

Yes, sir.

Not you too.

You left your camp unattended and
rushed here at daybreak for this?

This is very important. I've
seen the enemy with my own eyes.

And I've read Captain Yi's
journals from cover to cover.

Isn't it possible that
he was right and...

What are you trying to say?

Are you trying to say that Yi Soon-shin
was right and I was wrong?

Is that what you're trying to say?

Sir!

What did Yi Soon-shin say to you?
What did he say to frighten you that

you'd rush here at dawn
and cause this commotion?

Don't be a coward and
return to your post.

You just began your military career.
You don't want to cut it short, do you?

Look what we have to go through all
because of your friend Yi Soon-shin!

I know! Of all the Jurchen chiefs,
why does it have to be Matniungae?

Chiefs are dime a
dozen around here!

Shut up!

Are you sticking up
for your friend?

You idiot! If they knew that
we were Soon-shin's friends,

do you think they'd keep us alive?

Excuse me!

I'd like to see the chief.

What could you possibly
want with the chief?

I'd like to make a deal with him.

With what? You've got
nothing to offer him.

I've got plenty.

What do you want?

Chief...

What's your motive for trying
to get close to me? Answer me.

Do you have a death wish?

Do whatever you wish.

Because unlike you, I
am not afraid of death.

Me afraid of death?

I grew up on the battlefield.
How could such a man fear death?

That's what I thought
as well at first.

But I was wrong. I knew it
the moment I set foot in here.

Why do you sleep here instead
of your own sleeping quarters

surrounded by armed guards?

That's how I knew.

You have so many enemies that you
can't even sleep in your own bed

among your own people.

You're truly a lonely man.

You've been sick all morning.
Please rest today.

I know your wound is sore.

You can carry it yourself!

The captain is sick.

Who are you calling captain?

Did you tell him to carry this?

Are you ignoring your
superior officer? Answer me!

Are you always this listless?
No wonder you lost your men!

The captain didn't tell
me to do anything! I...

Shut your mouth!

This man does not deserve
to be called a captain!

If he is a captain he
should acted like one.

A captain who sits on his thumb knowing
that his men are going to be butchered,

knowing that his fort is going to
be destroyed, doesn't deserve to be

called a captain.

You mean you're going to
turn back without seeing him?

Yes.

I know that he is all right,
so that's enough.

But...

I heard that he was injured and
feared I may have to deliver

disturbing news to Mother.

I'm just thankful.

But if I may make a request...

Of course.

Please do not tell Soon-shin
that I was here.

I don't think it would please
him to know that I saw him.

Of course. Don't worry.

Commander, enclosed are the journals
that contain detailed reconnaissance

reports of the enemy camp as observed
by the former garrison captain Yi Soon-shin

throughout this past year.

I respectfully ask that you
review them with an open mind.

I know that to die in battle is
the greatest honor to a warrior,

but I send this to you to learn about
the enemy and find a way to triumph

against them.

He was just here and
now this letter...

Lt. Yi is a faint-hearted man.

Open it up.

Yes, sir.

My name is Yu Song-ryong.

I am Lt. Yi Unryong.
Please sit down.

I am quite familiar with
your illustrious name.

What brings you to these parts?

I've come to see the offender who
serves this fort as a common soldier.

If you don��t mind me asking,
how do you know the former

garrison captain Yi Soon-shin?

We are old friends.

Then...

could I ask you for a favor?

The hand that should be holding
a sword is holding a bottle.

How could I call you a warrior?

Soon-shin, my man!

What are you doing here?

I've come to see if I did the
right thing saving your life.

You should have let me die.

I had faith in you.

I thought that you'd easily overcome
this shame and bounce right back.

There is nothing I can do.
There is nothing I want to do.

Then why didn't you kill yourself?
If you're going to desert your men,

your comrades and yourself,
why not just end your life?

It will happen soon enough.

There are those coming for
my head before I kill myself.

Then why did you bother
to defend yourself?

If you were going to sit there and do
nothing, why did you ask to be heard?

It is His Majesty and the royal
court that are doing nothing!

What's the point of trying?

Superiors are more worried about
their reputation, officials are busy

protecting their interests, and
the sovereign just wants peace now

regardless of repercussion.

There is nothing to expect from this
world. Nothing will ever change.

What do you expect me to do?
Comfort and encourage my men?

What do I say to them? Give them
hope when there is no hope?

Why do I have to do that?

Filling them with false hopes and
pushing them into their death,

I've already done that.

Once is enough.

So that's it. You are afraid of being
called a captain who killed his men.

It's no wonder you keep
looking for excuses.

How many more men would
you like me to lose?

You're pushing them into
their death right now!

"I'll die with my men, so those who
die next are not my responsibility!"

Then how are you different from
your superiors, the officials or

the sovereign that you condemn?
You do not care just as they don't!

I think coming here
was a mistake.

How could I criticize you?

I am the one who turned my
back against the world first.

I did not have the courage to watch
the royal court rotting before my eyes

under the rule of the King who has
lost his will and his men who fails

to put the people first.

No, perhaps I was afraid of
turning corrupt just like them.

So everything I said tonight,
I meant it for myself...

I never wanted to watch another
subordinate die before my eyes.

I told myself that I would be content
if I could just be buried here with you.

I wanted to find peace somehow
if that is the only way.

But I don't know if
you will forgive me.

I came here expecting an
incompetent and irresponsible man

since you are a defeated captain
sentenced to serve without rank.

Then I became suspicious.

It was the way your men looked at you.
Their eyes were not of bitterness and

anger for the leader
who had abandoned them.

Then was he in fact a good
leader? Was he misunderstood?

Then lastly I became afraid.

If you ask me, you don't look like
such a great leader right now.

All I see is a loser who
can't stop blaming himself.

I don't have much battle experience.

I have no memory of defeat
or memory of losing my men.

But if the pain of losing his men
is what did this to a man who was

once a great leader, I am afraid.

I'm afraid of defeat.

I won't even be able to
handle this much, Captain.

Help me. Please help me
so I do not lose my men.

And even if I fail and lose my men,
show me that a true warrior must

overcome his pain and go on.

Captain!

Tens of thousands?

Are you certain of that number?

That's not all, sir.

Many more barbarians were arriving
from all direction as we watched.

Is it true that you saw
Captain Yi Soon-shin of Chosan?

Yes, Your Majesty.

Why did you travel such
a distance to see him?

Were you trifling with me when
you advised me to execute him?

Punish me, Your Majesty.

I spoke to you insincerely out
of desperation to save him.

How could I avoid punishment?

Why do you so desperately
want to save this man?

Because he is your dear friend?

No, Your Majesty. The man I tried
to save is your faithful warrior,

but now I know I made a mistake.

From what I have seen in the north,
barbarian attacks have not ceased

throughout the six camps. But
Yi Soon-shin is neglecting his duty

as your warrior and
awaits death with his men.

How could I call him
a faithful warrior?

Imperial Attendant summon the Minister
of Military Chung Unshin immediately!

Yes, Your Majesty.

Hear me, Chief Commander
of North Base Yi Il!

I am well aware of your negligence
attributed to the cause of tragedy

in Nok-dune. If such lapse is repeated,
I have no choice but to question your

loyalty and competence. Do not inflict
me the pain of cutting my own flesh.

Sir!

I've spent half of my
life as the King's warrior.

And half of that has been
spent here in the six camps.

I came close to death many times
and serve the King like a dog.

And what I got in
return is this post!

The pain of cutting his own flesh?
Ha! How convenient is the throne...

The King may swallow what is sweet
and spit out what is bitter.

Is anyone out there?

Yes, sir!

Dispatch messengers to
each of the six camps!

Consolidate all military
power to the North Base!

I am going after the barbarians!

I will slaughter each
and every one of them!

Did you check out the enemy camp?

Yes, sir.

Is it as we suspected?

Captain!

It's trouble!

Commander Yi Il is calling the troops
together and launch an attack against

the barbarians?

Is this true?

Yes, sir.

He will get the entire six
camps military force wiped out!
