What?

Sun Wanrong demanded that I personally deliver the tributes?

Yes, Father.

He threw water on my face and humiliated the Turks with all kinds of insults!

Arrogant bastard!

We bow to him in pretence and he thinks there`s no one above him!

I have a report from Yingzhou.

Li Kaigu and his army have left for Liaodong.

-Is this true? -Yes.

Yingzhou is left completely defenseless ~Li Wen~

Li Kaigu is gone at last! ~Muchuo:Turkic Khan~

There is no time to waste. We will advance east at once.

Khan, we can`t risk Li Kaigu coming back by deploying the troops all at once. ~Kui Tigin~

That`s right, Khan.

It will be wiser to divide the troops and move in small groups. ~Inel~ ~ Tonyukuk~

Very well.

Each of you will take your own brigades and proceed on different routes.

We will reassemble 20 miles east of Yingzhou.

Yes, Khan.

Li Kaigu may be gone

but the Xi Tribes are defending the exterior of Yingzhou. I was told they`re not to be underestimated.

Don`t be concerned. We`ve already taken care of them.

Taken care of them?

You mean you`ve won them over?

We don`t start a fight we can`t win.

The enemy`s gate is wide open and there`s no one inside.

What is there to fear?

Turkic warriors, charge ahead!

-We will take Yingzhou in a single strike! -Yes, Khan!

~Ansi Fort~

General Li Kaigu`s army just crossed the Liao River.

How are we with the provisions?

We got the emergency supplies from Shin Fort.

The troops?

Both Liaodong Fort and Baekam Fort have sent several thousand reinforcement troops.

We`re ready to face the enemy.

Li Kaigu will ignore the other forts and come straight to Ansi Fort.

Just as General Yang Manchun faced the Tang army of one million many years ago we will face the enemy here.

Mark my words.

This time the bodies of Khitan soldiers will cover the field were the Tang soldiers were once buried.

Remember that this is Liaodong and we can defeat any enemy of any size.

-Is that clear? -Yes, sir!

Any other news to report?

We haven`t heard anything back from Gulsabiwu yet.

This is taking too long... I`m afraid I will never see my father again....

Jungsang,

How is your wound?

He is improving thanks to the medicine and food you sent us.

What`s going on in the outside world?

Khitan has deployed an army to Liaodong at last.

You mean the Khitan have declared a war? ~Dae Jungsang~

This is not any one side`s fault. ~Li Geom~

Both Khitan and Liaodong are doing what they must for self preservation.

We could`ve co-existed in peace! It`s Khitan`s avarice that brought this violence!

Jungsang!

I`ve done all I can do.

I will not be seeing you again.

Thank you.

I was simply abiding by my grandfather`s last wish,

You could`ve lost everything as consequences of saving me.

Why did you go through this lenght to save me?

I assure you I will not be helping you again.

Please leave Yingzhou as soon as you`re able.

Thanks for today.

-You can go and rest. -General! General!

I want to know, too.

You`re not one to betray your father and your country.

Why?

Who are you ?

It`s been a while.

You must know where he is. ~Gulsabiwu~

Where is General Dae Jungsang?

If he`s dead. I must claim his body.

Now answer my question.

Where is General Dae Jungsang?

Prince Geom is the one who saved Dae Jungsang`s life.

Put that sword down!

Is this true?

Maechun will show you where he is.

If this is a trick you`ll never see this man again. ~Geumlan~

General Dae`s injury hasn`t healed. Take care of him.

-Jungsang, you`re not well enough to travel yet. -A war is about to break out in Liaodong.

-I`ve got work to do. -But if your wound gets infected....

-You`re...! -Uncle!

It`s Gulsabiwu and Geumlan!

-General! -How did you find us?

I heard you were injured.

-I`m all right now. -Let me help you.

Geom must`ve told you about me.

He saved my life.

Did he say ....anything else?

I asked him many questions but he wouldn`t open up. He`s hard to figure out.

Let`s get out of here.

Who`s there? Is that you Geom?

Yes,, mother.

Where have you been all day?

Is there something you want to talk to me about.

I was with General Dae Jungsang.

-Then you? -Yes.

I was the one who saved General Dae Jungsang.

aren`t you going to ask me why?

Why?

-What special reason could there be? -Mother.

I didn`t want General Dae Jungsang getting killed, and I`m sure you didn`t either. ~Chulin~

I understand how you feel.

But if father found out, he would kill me.

You did nothing.

Don`t talk about this to anyone and no one will know.

But this has to be the last time.

Forget about General Dae Joyoung and the refugees. Do you understand?

Cut off all emotional ties with Goguryeo.

Answer me.

I will do as you wish, Mother.

Is General Dae Joyoung so important to you.

Was your promise to him so important that you`d defy your own father to keep?

Yes, Mother...

I have such deep feelings for General Dae Joyoung

.....Geom..

But now is not the time.

How could I feel foundness for him when he is my father`s biggest enemy right now?

I am a prince of Khitan born and raised in Khitan.

I will protect Yingzhou while father is away.

I was born to live and die for you, for Father and for Khitan.

Then we`re all right. I won`t worry.

Go and get some rest now.

Yes, mother.

I`m sorry, Geom.

I`m so sorry for this pain....

You don`t know how glad we are that you are alive.

-I`m sorry to have worried you. -No, sir.

The fact that you are alive will keep the refugees hope alive. ~Jang Sanhae~

Li Kaigu`s army should be in Liaodong by now.

We`re ready to leave as well, general.

Us going back to Liaodong will not do us any good.

But we can`t saty here either.

This could be a god given opportunity.

We`re going to take the remaining refugees out of here.

Surveillance of the refugees must have loosened with a war in progress.

With Gulsabiwu and Geumlan with us it`s not at all impossible.

That`s a bold idea.

And since most of the refugees are being held in the labor camp we don`t have to round them up.

I will alert the rest of the refugees in advance.

But sir, we don`t have enough man power to evacuate the refugees ourselves.

We could be putting ourselve in great danger.

You`re right. We need someone to help us.

-Do you have someone in mind? -Li Geom.

If anyone can get us out of here it`s Geom.

Today I have invited the Khans of Xi Tribes Khitans most trusted brother tribes.

As you already know, a majority of Khitan military forces has been deployed

to conquer Liaodong. ~Sun Wanrong:2nd Khitan King~

leaving the safety of Yingzhou in the hands of our brothers.

I hope you will assist me in this great pursuit of world mastery.

-We will trust and follow, Your Majesty. -Your Grace is immeasurable.

Thank you.

Thank you, my brothers!

General,

-you mean the Xi Tribes have join forces with the Turks? -Watch your mouth,

if you don`t want to go down in history as the biggest fool in the world!

I`m sorry, sir.

But is it true?

Small tribes often switch sides in order to survive. ~Xue Rengui~

But they`ve been allies forever.

That`s how scared they are of the Turks.

And now that they`ve been told that Tang has joind forces with the Turks, how could they remain loyal to Khitan?

I guess you`re right, sir.

By the way, when are we getting out of here? ~Hongpei~

Alon with the Turkic army, Li Wen and the Tang army will be here soon.

Than?

I`m going to speahead the attack myself.

I can`t let Muchuo be the man that brought down Khitan.

Of course not, sir.

At any rate, I wonder what`s happening in Liaodong.

Dae Joyoung versus Li Kaigu....

The two were once dubbed "Western Tiger and Easten Dragon".

Yes....

A match between a tiger and a dragon... This will be a match to watch!

Yes, indeed!

Joyoung, come quickly.

Take a look.

-Li Kaigu has arrived with a massive army. -They`re setting up a camp on Mt. Jupil.

It`s a larger army than I had expected.

It`s a powerful army that didn`t suffer a single defeat in the southwest conquest. ~Mimosa~

And they`re probably stronger now than ever before.

We seize Liaodong with only thirty thousand troops. We`ve got nothing to be afraid of. ~Huek Sudol~

Besides, this is our home turf. That gives us a huge advantage. ~Gaepilsamun~

-Did you dig the wells like I ordered? -Yes, sir.

We can hold them back even if they attack with fire. ~Tungso~

We`ve succeeded in luring them in, so all that is left now is to fight and win.

We will obliterate them, Li Kaigu and Khitan will not be forgiven

for betraying our trust!

General, that`s Ansi Fort.

They will seal their gates tight and prepare a siege war.

If we`re not careful, we could exhaust all of our supplies and end up going back empty handed.

Let the soldiers and horses rest.

We will rest our tired feet and attack with full force.

Yes, general!

It`s an obstacle you must conquer in order to seize dominance of the land. ~Shin Hong~

Did you say that my father`s grave is in Ansi Fort? ~Li Kaigu~

It`s probably covered in weeds with years of neglect.

You don`t know how long I`ve waited for this day.

I want nothing more than to see you pouring a drink of homage to you father at his grave.

I will kill Dae Joyoung with my own hands and avenge my father`s death.

-Sudol, round up 3,000 of our best men. -What are you going to do with 3,000 men.

I`m going into Mt. jupil tonight!

You`re going outside the fortress?

They`ll never expect us to attacj them first.

But you`ll be up against tens of thousands of enemy soldiers. 3,000 thousand men will not be nearly enough.

3,000 will be perfect to deliver a maximum blow with minimum casualties.

If it`s to shock their moral, yes, you`re right.

But it`s too dangerous for you to go yourself.

Stay here, general. Let us take care of this.

No, confidence is the most powerful weapon we have against them.

I will do this myself if only for our soldier`s moral.

Countless enemies have set up their camp on Mt. Jupil in the past seeking to capture Ansi Fort.

In all of Liaodong, Mt. jupil is the only land that Goguryeo had allowed its enemy.

But this is about to change.

I will not allow them to trample on Mt Jupil any longer!

Those who want vengeance follow me!

We`re going after the command center. Retreat immediately at my signal.

-Understood? -Yes, general!

General, You should rest now.

You go ahead.

General! General!

We are under attack! It`s Dae Joyoung!

Under attack?

-You mean they came out of the city? -Yes, sir.

If Dae Joyoung is here in the flesh,

I will go out and kill him myself!

-Assist the general! Go! -Yes, sir. Let`s go!

Oh, no!

They caugh us off guard!

I never thought Dae Joyoung would make the first move!

My father, what have you done to my father?

I`m sure the animals have got to him by now.

Li Kaigu, you bastard!

-I kill him to avenge my own father`s death! -Silence!

You`re a dead man!

-Blasted bastard, here you are! -It`s Heuk Sudol the idiot!

-I`m going to kill you once and for all! -take you best shot!

General!

General, the Khitan soldiers are coming! We must retreat now!

Joyoung, we have to go!

You`re not going anywhere!

Blasted bastard!

General, we have to retreat now! A moment to late and we will all die!

-Retreat! Sound the bugle! -yes, sir!

Retreat!

You won`t be so lucky next time.

Go after them! Don`t let them get away!

I never dreamed Dae Joyoung would jump into our camp like this.

We have thousands of casualties includind the injures.

Stay inside, General.

We will rebuilt the camp right away.

There is no need to rebuilt the camp.

Delever my order to the troops.

We're going to attack to Ansi Fort now!

General!

Bring the belfries, battering ram, and ballistas.

We're going to start this battle with a fire attack!

They're launching the battle at last.

Come!

I'll kill you all!

All of you!

Her Majesty must be in a goog mood today.

-Yes, she is. -Announce us.

Your Majesty, the minister are here to see you.

-Send them in. -Yes, Your Majesty.

Please enter.

Welcome.

I just heard about Liaodong.

Dae Jo Young and Li Kaigu are in a fierce battle.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Both sides have sustained great losses.

We will leave Dae Jo Young and Li Kaigu to destroy each other.

What's happened with Munchuo?

He and his army should be nearing by Yingzhou by now.

At last everything is going my way.

Yingzhou is defenseless with Li Kaigu.

Your Majesty, I'm glad Muchou is going to destroy Yingzhou.

but I fear we're allowing Munchuo to become to powerful.

That's why General Xue Rengui sent Li Wen to them

Besides, I've establishes marital ties with Muchou

may it be with a phony prince.

The Turks will not betray me in haste.

It is good to hear your laughter, Your Majesty.

It fills the place with life.

I had taken will because of barbarians in the north

Once we get rid Li Kaigu and Muchou

and Dae Jo Young is eliminated,

my life will see Spring again.

And I will be rejuvenated.

Your Majesty, may you enjoy longevity.

May you enjoy longevity, Your Majesty!

Longevity... Yes,

I must live long for this country to have peace and prosperity.

I must live long...

People are suffering more and more as the battles continue.

How about the enemy?

Their situation is just as bad as ours if not worse.

We're in this fight, and we must see it though the end.

But it's regretful that we are suffering greater damage

than I thought we would...

We have to repair the siege engine and threat the injured.

Perhaps a few days of rest is in order.

No, we're going to strike again tonight!

Without a single day of rest, sir?

We have a larger force than they do.

If we are exhausted,

they are even more exhausted.

But if only for the soldiers' morale...

Silence!

Prepare for battle.

We will not rest until we breakthrough the gate!

General! General!

General!

A disturbing report just arrived from Yingzhou, sir.

A disturbing report?

Brace yourself.

Muncho of the Turks have advenced to Yingzhou with a massive army.

Muncho and his army?

Are you saying the Turks are attacking Yingzhou?

Yes, general!

Your Majesty!

-Your Majesty! -Were they truly the Turks?

Yes, Your Majesty!

They set up their camp 20 miles east of Yingzhou.

Are you saying that their amity was a lie?

We've been tricked!

They deceived us to put us off guard!

How large is their army?

There's got to be least a hundred thousand of them.

What? A hundred thousand?

They're here with an army of one hundred thousand?

Yes, Your Majesty!

Call back General Li Kaigu.

We need him to stop the enemy!

Now! Call Li Kaigu back now!

It will take at least ten days for him to return.

Luckily, we have about three thousand Xi tribe allies.

With concentrated afford,

they should be able to hold the Turks back for ten days.

Fetch my uniform and my sword.

I will hold the enemy back myself until Li Kaigu returns.

Turkic camp outside Yingzhou

Khan!

Khan, we captured suspicious men lurking nearby.

Suspicious men?

Are they Khitan spies?

I believe so.

-Kill them. -Yes, Khan.

Li Wen, it's Xue Rengui!

They're trying to kill me!

Li Wen! Li Wen!

General Li Wen, help us! Help!

It's General Xue Rengui's voice.

Bring the general in at once!

Yes,sir!

-Come in, General! -Oh, this is so humiliating!

General! What happened, sir?

You're all tied up!

We told them who we are but they wouldn't believe us!

- Hurry up and untie me! -Yes, Sir!

We almost made a terrible mistake!

You're laughting?

How can you laugh when I nearly got my head cut off?

My subortinates made a mistake.

Please don't be angry.

So what's going on with the Khitans?

Hongpei, you tell them.

The Xi tribe alliance army is

defending the outer edge of the city.

They will soon be here to surrender.

We should hold of the attack until than.

I can't belive they put the Xi tribes to defend the city.

They might as well have trusted a cat to protect a fish.

Make way!

Make way!

Jungsang.

Why are you still in Yingzhou?

I'll get straight to the point.

We must take the Goguryeoan refugees with us.

Would you help us?

We can take those being held in labor camp ourselves.

But we need help with the remaining refugees in the city.

Help us get them out!

I know you can help.

Dou you have soldiers to protect the refugees?

This is all of us you see in the room.

If you're attacted by the Turks,

all of you will die.

Forget about taking the refugees.

I don't have time for this!

We can't let our people die here.

Please help us this once.

For as long as they are in Yingzhou,

they are Khitans not Goguryeoans.

They will die if this country crumbles,

and they will survive if this country survives.

Must you turn down our desperate plea for help?

Go back to Liaodong.

Or I will deem you as spies.

You don't understand.

You must help Goguryeo.

I said no!

Do you know who are you?

-You're... -My father is in a war

against General Dae Jo Young right now.

Do you understand?

I'm afraid we have no choice

but to give up on the refugees in the city.

They could die when the Turks attack.

But there is no way to get them out.

We can't give up.

We've got to find a way to save them.

Who is still not present?

They are the warrior of the Xi tribes

defending the outher edges of the city.

They will arrive shortly, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty! Your Majesty!

-It's trouble, Your Majesty! -Trouble?

The Xi tribes have betrayed us!

Betrayed us? Explain!

They surrendered to the Turks.

What? Surrendered?

Are you saying that

the outher edges of Yingzhou have fallen into Muncho's hands?

We the warriors of Xi tribes vow loyalty to Munchuo Khan!

-We vow loyalty! -We vow loyalty!

We vow loyalty!

We vow loyalty!

We vow loyalty!

The troops are ready for withdrawal.

Yingzhou could fall if we delay.

It's bitter disappointment

having failed to kill Dae Jo Young.

and it boils me up inside having put the country in danger

by falling for Xue Rengui's tricks.

I am to blame for my failure to assist you properly.

Remember this bitter rage.

I will be back to fight Dae Joyoung again

once Munchuo is dead.

Yes, you will.

But you must order the troops to retreat now.

Li Kaigu has begun his retreat.

Then it must be true that Yingzhou is under siege.

We won!

We protected Ansi Fort!

I will announce our victory to the troops!

-Let's go, Tungso. -Yes, general.

Stop!

This war isn't over.

What do you mean?

They came to Liaodong on their own will,

but they cannot leave as they please.

General,...?

If Li Kaigu does not return on time,

Khitan will fall.

Are you going to bring Khitan down?

Is that your intent, General?

Delever my order to the troops!

We are going after them!

We will bring Khitans down and eliminate Li Kaigu!
