[Episode 36]

Go and tell all the officers from the division and above on standby in Yue City to come.

Commander, Tan Xuanlin has occupied the armory.

Our troops are pinned down and have become live targets now!

20,000 of you can't even capture just one machine gun site?

Our troops were stalled by Chen Shaowu's men. They won't leave!

Chen Shaowu's wife?

- Cease fire! - Cease fire!

- Stop! - Stop!

Stop shooting!

I know you resent me, Mrs. Chen. But Shaowu's death was definitely not what I wanted.

Who knew that Tan Xuanlin would start to kill in public?

And now, he's already started to move in on me.

What he wants

is to kill every one of us old men in Jiang City.

I have no choice but to ask you to intervene.

Tell those men to drop their weapons.

Tan Xuanlin has already ruined my family.

I'm just a woman. I can't kill him.

If I can help you win this battle,

it will also be revenge for Shaowu's death.

[Military Map of Jiang City]

- Commander. - How's it going?

Liu Fu took Chen Shaowu's wife to the Chen Family camp.

Now, Chen Shaowu's troops have ceased fire.

Liu Fu's men are all coming our way.

- Is that machine gun site at the clock tower still there? - Yes.

But Liu Fu's got so many soldiers. We're outnumbered.

I'm afraid we will lose this line of defense soon.

Old Fu, how many people are there left in the City Guard Office?

Apart from the people trapped by Liu Fu's main force in the south and north of the city,

we have less than 500 men left.

What about weapons? Do we have any weapons left?

I've brought all the weapons from the armory. There are three heavy machine guns left.

Three.

Let's do this. We'll set up two machine gun sites at the entrance to the first floor

and another one besides the windows on the second floor to form a crossfire

and divide our men into three lines of defense. [City Guard Office of Jiang City]

Set up the first line of defense at the entrance to the first floor

and two sites on the roof for an ambush.

On both sides of the first floor, prepare a hundred people for an ambush

to prevent them from breaking through the gate.

The rest of the men will be in the four rooms in the backyard for another ambush.

As long as they dare to come in, we'll block their retreat and destroy them.

The Tan Army has fought a lot of battles in which the enemies have outnumbered us.

Liu Fu is no match for us.

The worst result would be mutual destruction,

and he won't live to see tomorrow's sun.

Leave it to me.

Go get prepared.

[City Guard Office of Jiang City]

Everybody, get ready.

Fire!

Retreat!

Everyone.

You are all my brothers who have followed me

and gone through fire and water with me together for many years.

From today onwards,

the military and political power of Yue City will both be

handed over to Guangyao.

You are all older than Guangyao. We've still got a long way to go.

You are all his family.

He is my only son.

From this day on, I, Xu Bojun,

I will entrust my son to you.

I'm tired.

You may leave now.

Guangyao, take this.

Guangyao,

the Xu family relies on you from now on.

Governor.

Father!

Don't let it infect you. Go and get some rest.

Have a good night.

Okay. Go.

Send someone to keep an eye on Mu Wanqing.

If Guangyao is going to Jiang City to save Tan Xuanlin,

- threaten him with that woman's life and stop him. - Yes, sir!

[Military Map of Jiang City]

Father decided to hold peace talks with the Revolutionary Army.

But Liu Fu in Jiang City puts up a stubborn resistance, regardless of the overall situation.

He wants to disrupt peace talks.

Listen to my order.

One of the divisions stationed in Yue City,

will go to Jiang City with me tonight to destroy Liu Fu

to show the Revolutionary Army that we are serious about the peace talks.

Junior Marshal, shall we leave now?

Yes, right now. Make sure that we get to Jiang City before dawn.

Yes, sir!

Adjutant Xu.

It's late. What are you doing here?

Junior Marshal has ordered us to pack up and stand by.

The commanders are having a meeting now.

- Having a meeting? - Yes.

What are you doing here?

What do you want to do?

Wanqing.

Xu Yuan, what are you doing?

You came back with me so soon. I got suspicious.

It's a pity that though the marshal has been brilliant all his life,

he's been made a fool by you now.

You came back to call for reinforcements to help Tan Xuanlin.

Father has agreed to hold peace talks. Besides, he has given me military power.

Of course, I have the right to act as I see fit.

The marshal agreed to peace talks. But he didn't agree to spare Tan Xuanlin.

He has suffered so much because of Tan.

Not only do you not avenge him, but you are in cahoots with your enemies.

- Xu Yuan! - I think she instigated it.

You're just my father's adjutant.

You are going way too far.

But the marshal saved me from the battlefield.

He raised me up and taught me the way of being a man and doing things.

Without him, I would not be here.

I am grateful, unlike you.

You're ungrateful. You are an unfilial son.

Yes.

Back then, my father brought you back from the battlefield.

You were only a few months old.

My mother said that you were very weak and almost died.

So I will never forget the marshal's kindness!

But do you know why my father brought you back?

What do you want to say?

In the 22nd year of Emperor Guangxu's reign, (The 9th Qing Emperor who ruled from 1875-1908)

the Big Sword Society in Shangdong started an uprising.

At that time, my father was the Commander of the Defense Battalion.

He led soldiers to kill the insurgents

and shot a couple with a baby.

That baby was only a few months old.

My father then walked up to the baby.

He wanted to wipe the blood on his bayonet

with the blanket on the baby.

But when he bent down,

a surviving insurgent shot an arrow at him.

My father escaped death because he bent down.

He believed

the baby could bring him good luck.

So he took him home.

You are lying to me.

This was written in my mother's diary.

She always felt like she owed you.

That's why when she was alive, she treated you so well.

She did so to atone for my father's sins.

Just leave.

From now on,

I have nothing to do with you.

Brother Yuan!

Why are you here?

You heard it, right?

Xu Yuan killed himself.

Don't look at me like that.

I didn't do anything.

He found out the truth.

He thought that he was loyal to the wrong person all his life.

But when I carefully think about it,

his loyalty was all a result of your lie.

And as you kept telling the lie,

you finally believed it yourself.

So when you do evil things,

you think you are doing the right things.

You have no right to accuse me.

A man of great ambition should not stick to trifles.

Look at emperors and generals of the past dynasties.

They all killed people to get what they wanted.

Millions died so that Caesar might be great.

The world is like this.

The world is like this?

Do you think you can get rid of your sins by saying that?

You killed my brother,

framed Governor Luo,

tricked my father into raising money for you,

and used Mu Wanting to force Min Dacheng to work for you,

so that he would do all the evil things for you.

Xuanlin proved my brother's innocence,

so you wanted him dead.

And you got my father killed.

In the end, even Miss Gu died because of you.

Did the world force you to do all these?

Okay.

Fine.

You shrew.

I want to kill you

for Guangyao's sake.

You... You...

The only good thing you have done in your whole life

is to care about your son.

But Brother Guangyao will never follow your plans.

Guangyao.

Get him here for me.

Where is Guangyao?

Brother Guangyao is paying your debts.

He will try his best to make up for all the evil things you have done.

Attention!

Turn right!

Don't you want to see your son?

He is in the courtyard now,

training his soldiers in high spirits.

The marshal is a scholar.

He always wants to contribute to the country.

For years, he has thrown himself into wars, trying to save the country.

But these are trying times.

He has been led astray

and couldn't reach the goal.

As a result,

he stepped down for some introspection.

He is now in this courtyard.

He is getting ready

to travel to Jiang City to support them.

You must be very proud to have a son like that.

Throughout history,

no city was unbreakable,

and no one's territory

could be passed on for generations safely.

The real territory lies in the heart of our people.

Only when the citizens recognize us and respect us,

will we have a way out whenever and

wherever we go.

Guang... Guang...

Yao... Yao...

From this day forth,

I will take over the troops.

♫ We went back to when we first met ♫

♫ I immediately saw your charming face ♫

Now that I have the military power of Yue City,

♫ To the endless ♫

I'll be responsible for you and

be responsible for the people of Yue City.

I want to lead you down a new path.

A path that will...

bring our people freedom,

bring our nation independence,

and bring our country prosperity!

Great! Great! Great! ♫ Let’s embrace either during the sunrise of sunset ♫

♫ I have exhausted myself in this life ♫

♫ My whole life has become lonely ♫

♫ Even if my vision ♫

Father.

Father!

♫ If I forget your profile ♫

♫ How would I put back together ♫

♫ The memories that revived me ♫

♫ Let’s embrace either during the sunrise of sunset ♫

♫ I have exhausted myself in this life ♫

♫ My whole life has become lonely ♫

♫ Even if my vision is blurred and I can’t clearly see ♫

♫ I’ll still sing with you on horseback ♫

[Virtue]

You are all a bunch of trash!

There are only hundreds of people at the City Guard Office.

And after such a lengthy assault, you couldn't even get through the gate!

The City Guard Office is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Tan Xuanlin has set up a lot of machine-gun sites.

Their firepower is too intense.

Our men have tried their best.

Find some reliable soldiers,

ask them to put on the new uniforms sent to the Tan Army

and infiltrate the office.

As long as we kill Tan Xuanlin,

his army will fall apart without being attacked.

- Yes, sir! - Wait!

There are several cannons beside the river

that were to be used against the Revolutionary Army.

Bring them all back.

Let's see if Tan Xuanlin's machine-guns

or my cannons are more powerful.

We are from the 8th Battalion. Help us!

Get in!

[Military Map of Jiang City]

What's the casualty situation?

The 7th Battalion can't hold any longer.

The 8th Battalion is still defending.

But...

Ask Old Fu to take a group of soldiers

to rescue the 8th Battalion.

Yes.

Hey, Brother.

Which battalion are you from?

Commander, we're from the 8th Battalion.

We just broke out from the southern part of the city.

But the southern part of the city is under siege. How did you break out?

Since when did our men ever wear suede shoes?

Tan Si, inform Old Fu that

Liu Fu's men have infiltrated our army.

Yes, sir.

[City Guard Office of Jiang City]

- Tell the commander they intend to bombard the office. Be quick! - Yes, Sir!

Fire!

Aim at the target! Get ready to fire!

[City Guard Office of Jiang City]

Report! They're going to shell the office!

Commander, we must retreat!

Tan Si! Tan Si!

Tan Si!

Come on.

- Leave! - I won't! I won't leave any of you behind!

You guys! Go protect the Commander and retreat!

Go!

Hurry! Get up!

Retreat!

Old Fu, we should retreat to the old towns.

- The terrain there is complicated, it gives us an advantage. - Okay.

- Retreat to the old towns. - Hurry.

Go!

Tan Xuanlin is stalling now.

Give out my order.

Do whatever it takes to kill Tan Xuanlin, even if it means blowing the old towns to dust.

Yes, sir!

Retreat!

Retreat!

Tan Si. Go!

Commander! Let's go! Hurry!

Tan Si! Tan Si!

Commander, hurry!

- Tan Si! - Tan Si!

Brother!

Leave!

Old Fu! Fire cover!

- Tan Si! - Tan Si!

Retreat! Hurry!

Hurry!

Retreat!

Chase them!

Fire!

Commander, it's me.

Your wound is inflamed. Let me help you clean and dress it.

I'm fine. It's not that big a deal. I can handle it.

No. It may kill you if you leave it be.

Old Fu, do you have any liquor?

Yes.

Hang in there.

Old Fu.

I owe you one.

When the battle is over,

let's have a good drink.

Then you must keep your words.

Fire!

Commander, watch out for the barrage!

Take Tan Xuanlin alive!

Yes, sir.

You've promised me.

You promised we would be together forever,

not a day less.

Okay.

You have my words. Not a day less.

Get out of the way.

Tan Xuanlin! You're dead!

Why do you work for Xu Bojun?

Why?

My only son

was executed by your father for embezzling a mere 10,000 yuan of military pay.

Do you really think I'm working for Xu Bojun?

No!

I'm avenging my son's death!

I'm sure you don't know, but back then, it was me

who told Xu Bojun about your father's marching route,

which led to your father's death.

Today, I will kill

the remaining son of the Tan family!

So it was you.

You lied to me. You said you wouldn't get hurt.

I'm fine.

It's okay.

It's still here.

[City Guard Office of Jiang City]

- Uncle Liao. - Xuanlin, how's your wound?

- It's a lot better. - Then...

Commander Tan, welcome back.

Uncle Liao, it was you who led me on this path.

From now on, we'll be comrades.

Commander, the special envoy sent by Governor Pei for peace talks has arrived.

Junior Marshal Pei.

Brother!

- Little Four! - I missed you so much!

Your brother's arm is injured.

- Get down quickly. - Arm?

Where? Let me see.

- Take your hands off me. - No, I won't!

I won't take my hands off.

Who told you to cut me off from the family?

I'm telling you, blood ties cannot be cut off so easily.

Fine.

Sangyu.

Move aside.

Commander Tan, long time no see.

Long time no see.

My crazy little sister has stayed with you for so long.

I'm sorry for your trouble.

Brother! How can you say that about your sister?

Don't say that. She changed me. I should thank her.

It seems that you have convinced your father.

We're two people reaching the same goal by different means.

You did what you promised. You're a man of character.

Hey, you little brat, why are you siding with him?

You finally admit that, right?

Our Old Pei has always been a man of his words.

You talk too much!

I'm trying to compliment my sister on her good taste.

Commander Tan, we'll all be comrades from now on.

Why are you still giving me a hard time?

Commander Tan!

Look who's coming.

- Commander Tan. - Old Wu? Why are you here?

Screw that position of Defense Commander of Shanghai.

From now on, I'll follow you.

Welcome aboard!
