This means Li Jinzhong knows that we are here.

He knows that we`re trying to propcure grains as well.

-We have no reason to stay here and waste our time.
-I know.

But Yingzhou is the only place
where we can replenish our food supply.

We only have one option left.

Go on.

Get these fools out of the way
and go after the fleeing fugitives!

Don`t let them get away!

You will have to kill us all
if you want to get to the people!

If I`m going to die,
I`m taking all of you with me!

Attack, you blasted bastards!

I`ve met many brilliant warriors
that represent their tribes and state in my time.

Many are eager to die killing the enemy
but only a few are eager to die saving nameless lives.

Dae Joyoung, was it?

True courage deserves praise.

Let them men go free!

No, Khan!

We, too, are fighting another country`s war
for our people back home.

If I slay these men,

my people will mock the Khan`s lack of virtue!

Li Jinzhong.

We will go to Governor General of Yingzhou Li Jinzhong
and request aid from him.

General, that`s too risky.

-We will be in greater danger if we fail to procure supplies.
-But you`re talking about requesting aid grom the enemy.

If I`m right about him,
he will cooperate.

We must make him cooperate
if we`re going to make it back to Goguryeo.

We must.

I see what you`re thinking.

Safest way to win a fight is
by turning the foe into a friend.

Exactly.

But winning Li Jinzhong`s heart will not be an easy task,

-I know what exactly what I`m going to say.
-But if he doesn`t respond favorably,
you will die.

Li Jinzhong is the man that let us go and saved our lives
when Goguryeo fell and Pyongyang Fort was taken.

-The situation is different now.
-Yes, it is different.

He no longer has any reason to kill me now.

And with Li Kaigu and Shing Hong away,
this is definitely worth a shot.

Then I shall go as well.

I will wager my life on your judgment.

What do you want?

I`m here to see General Xue.
Get out of my way!

General Xue is busy.

-What? Shut your mouth!
-General!

Out of my way!

What just happened?
That bloody bastard!

-What are you waiting for? Seize him!
-Yes, sir! Get him!

Look who`s here.
It`s General Li wen.

I heard you were back.

You!

-How dare you barge in here!
-Hongpei!

I heard you turned the bandits` den into ashes.

We got the treasure back,
and the Empress could not be more pleased.
~Xue Rengui~

You are amazing.
~Li Wen~

How could you pin Dae Joyoung`s escape on me?

You fell for his fake vow of loyalty
and allowed this to happen!

What`s done is done.

Let the matter rest.

Let it rest?

Dae Joyoung took the credit for my accomplishment
and the Empress is considering punishment!

Let it rest!

I will talk to the Empress again
and make sure you are not punished.

It will hurt you more than it hurt us
if you pursue this any further.
~Heichi Changzhi~

So let the matter rest.

All right.

I will let the matter rest.

But this will never be forgotten,
so remember this.

All things wither and die where sun shines all the time.

Don`t snub me because I`m going through a storm.

Who will prevail in the end remains to be seen.

TThat bastard!

What`s he trying to say?
Is it raining outside or what?

General, it`s a fearful remark.

What do you mean?

The situation in the palace....

Something big is bound to happen when the Emperor dies.

There is never a peaceful day in the palace.

This is why I hate politics.

My place is on the battefield I tell you!

You.....

Why do you think Dae Joyoung left Tang?

I`m sure it`s more than just because he was home sick.

He couldn`t build the kind of future he wants here.
He needed a bigger arena.

Goguryeo is not just home to Dae Joyoung.
It`s new world to build his future on.

A new world?

I`ve told you before.
~Shin Hong~

New heroes will soon arise and vie for mastery
of the new world on the old Goguryeo soil.

Dae Joyoung is one step ahead of you.

I have a plan of my own.

While Dae Joyoung is preparing
to build a new world on Goguryeo soil,
~Li Kaigu~

I will build my strength from here in Tang.

What I have here is a god given opportunity.

That`s exactly what I wanted to hear.

Chang`an is where you will prepare your future.

Recruiting good men on my side is my top priority.

That`s right.

Gifted men from around the country will come to Chang`an.

Gather brave men with brains and strenght
who will die for you.

The quickest way to acquiring the world
is by acquiring good men.

This is just the beginning.
I will go foward one step at a time.

And I will devote the rest of my life to serving you.

And I will not disappoint you.

Thank you.

Thank you, general.

I heard you sent a letter to the Khan in Yingzhou.

I wouldn`t be surprised if he has captured Dae Joyoung.

we must eliminate him when we can.
It will make your future a lot easier.

Dae Joyoung,

you`ve got some galls coming to me.

Khan, have you fared well?

I`ve come to have a chat with you.

A chat? You want to have a chat?

What are you waiting for?
Seize them at once!

Stop!

See them inside.

-But Khan!
-See them in!

I know you`re a daring man,
but I neve dreamed you`d show up here.

I have no reason to be afraid of you.

No, reason to afraid of me?

The Tang court is no longer after me.

Khitan were once Goguryeo`s enemy,
but those days are long gone now.

You no longer have any reason to kill us.

That`s what you think.
Go on.

Why did you come to me?

My men and I are traveling back to the old Goguryeo territory.

Give us food foe the trip.

Food?

You`re out of your mind!

-I suppose I have no reason not to.
-Khan!

But I have no reason not to kill you right now either.

Be very careful how you answer
the question I`m about to ask.

What would you give me in return
if I grand your request?

What will you do for me?

We will be Khitan`s most dependable ally.

-Ally?
-Yes.

Help us now, and we will
return your kindness ten fold.

You`re getting bolder by the minute.
Do you expect me to accept this ridiculous proposition?

Take another good look at who we are.

We are descendents of Great Goguryeo
that once ruled the land.

We are invincible warriors that made
Andong Protectorate tremble in fear
and escaped from Mt. Guifu

with Shilla, Baekje, and Turkic prisoners.

I know about the great dream of the Khitan Khan.

It is to free yourself from interference of Tang
and build an autonomous state,

and to become the Supreme Khan of Khitan.

The Spreme Khan?

I can`t believe I am those awe-inspiring words from you!

The Supreme Khan!

We will help you achieve you grand enterpeise.

Will you help us with our journey back home?

Khan, don`t let him fool you!

I will need some time to consider.
You will stay here tonight.

~Yingzhou Municipal Square~

Let`s eat first.

What kind of meat is this?
It`s delicious!

Have a peice, Geumlan.

They`re taking too long.
~Geumlan~

You can trust Joyoung.
He got us this far.
~Gulsabiwu~

Yes, yes.

Relax and eat up.

I wish I could take some of this back to Auhong.
~Heuk Sudol~

I feel guilty eating alone.

Do you want a drink?

The Supreme Khan...

It is my most cherished dream
that I kept locked deep in my heart.

And hearing those words from you has confirmed my destiny!

Khan,

It is an unrealistic dream in our current state.
~Sun Wanrong~

Please don`t be fooled.

There is a great chance on the horizon.
It is not an unrealistic dream, Khan.
~Mimosa~

Do you think my dream can be realized?
~Li Jinzhong~

Once the Emperor of Tang dies,
Empress Wu Zetian will rise to power.

And there will be considerable internal trouble in the process.

Yes, of course.

The ministers and the Empress are already at odds.

The Turkic tribes have already taken
control of much of the western region.
It`s a matter of time

-before they cross the Great Wall and harass Tang.
-Is that right?

-Have the Turks become that powerful?
-Yes, Khan.

Turkic invasion will weaken Tang,
and Khitan will get a break not far in the future.

That`s clear and concise.
I like your analysis!

Here, let us drink.

I will supply the grains you need.

Khan!

Thank you, Khan.

But do not forget your promise.

You promise to come to my aid when I call.

Khan, how can you trust these men?

This is not a deal but a promise.

A promise made in trust between two men of honor.

I have one more request now that we have opened up our hearts.

Go on.

You`re holding a man named Gaepilsamun in your custody.
Release him for me.

That filthy bandit?

He helped us not once but twice from an impossible predicament.
I must repay my debt of gratitude.

Indeed I am a good judge of chracter.
Now I know you will never betray me.
You go it.

I will release him.

Where are you taking us?

Get out of here and stay away!

What made you want to let us go?
~Gaepilsamun~

Dae Joyoung requested your release.

Dae....Dae Joyoung!

That bastard is here?

-Dae Joyoung is here?
-Why, you bastard!

Let`s get back inside.

Dae Joyoung is in there!
We have to get him!
Dae Joyoung is in there!

You bastards!

General, let`s get out of here before they change their minds.

Let`s go!

No, I can`t! I won`t!

I will not owe my life to Dae Joyoung!

-My pride will not allow it!
-General!

Put me back in there!

Arrest me and put me back in there!

Let go! Let go of me!

We will leave Yingzhou in the morning
and return to Goguryeo territory.

And we will rebuild our strength where Tang cannot touch us.

This is where we must modify our plans.

Modify our plans?
What do you mean?

We must firmly decide our goal now.

Our goal is revival of Goguryeo.
What more is there to decide?

Our dreams have become too large for us to stop there.

-You metioned this once before.
-Do you remember?

I said that a man`s dream must grow with him.

And that you must expand your dream to embrace all men.

A dream to embrace all men?
What`s that?

-Are you talking about founding a new state?
-Yes.

Not revival of Goguryeo but foundation of a new state.

Joyoung!!

It`s Goguryeo territory.

Who would dare erect a new state on that lamd?

You`re the only one who can.

That`s right, only you!

-Don`t you remember what King Bojang said?
-Even I remember it like it was yester day.

His Majesty gave you permission to found a new state!

But I will have you remember
that I am the last owner ofGoguryeo

and the sovereign King of its people!

Anyone seeking to erect a regime on
that land requires my permission ans
my approval!

Listen and listen well, General Dae Joyoung.

Heaven decides the fate of the nation,
but the fate of the people

is decided by the will of their leader.

Take care of my people.

When you get back home, reclaim the land
that was taken from them and resume Goguryeo`s
grand desogn!

I grant permission to no one but you, Dae Joyoung.

Don`t forsake us, general.

First we must build up our strength.

We must first build a strong army and save
the displaced citizents that have been scattered
throughout the continent.

Forget about founding a new state for now.
That`s heaven`s will alone.

No one knows how long it will take.

Bringing Goguryeoans back together on Goguryeoan soil
is our first and foremost mission.

We will never foget your kindness.

Please don`t forget about us.

We will comeback for you as promised.
Jang Sanhae has kindly agreed to stay behind.

We will be waiting.

We will never give up hope of going back home.

You have an important task.

Alert us right away if anything
should happen to the refugees.

It`s for our brothers.
I will spare no efforts.
~Jang Sanhae~

-We must go now, father.
-Yes. And the soldiers?

They`re waiting outside the city.

-Out of my way!
-General!

Dae Joyoung! Dae Joyoung!

-I have a question!
-Get out of my way!

Where are you going?

We`re going back to old Goguryeo soil.
You should return to your tribe as well.

I can`t go back to my people.

How could I face my brothers
after getting all of my men killed?

Are you accusing my brother for saving your life?

You`d be dead if it weren`t for him.
What do you want?

Who asked you to save my life?

He`s an ingrate.

Killing him will be the only way to shut him up.

Take me with you.

Gaepilsamun is too proud to owe his life to anyone!

I can`t accept you just brcause
you have nowhere else to go.

All of us here are together for the same great cause.

I don`t know what your great cause is,
but I`m game if it`s important.

Let me join you.

I was a stable boy once.

When it comes to fighting on horses,
no one comes close to us Turks!

Take me in,
and I`ll take care of the horses.

I think he will earn his keep.

Let`s take him in, Joyoung.

I`m for it, too.

Brother!!

What are you waiting for?
Salute your new brother!

Brother!

A.D. 683...

Tang Emperor Gaozong finally died and Li Zhe
ascended to the throne according to his will.

But on the following year, Wu Zetian seize
complete power of Tang deposing Li Zhe
and repalcing him with his younger brothe Li Dan.

That was just the beginning of her ruthless rise

Her enless ambition produced countless
purges and brutal oppression.

In 689, Heichi Changzhi was
executed falsely accused of a crome.

Finally in 690, Wu Zetizn eliminated
all of her male heir of the Imperial House of Tang

and assumed the throne herself declaring a new empire.

She named her Dynasty Zhaou
and called herself Emperor Shengshe.

At last the one and only female Emperor
in Chinese history was born.

The northern dominion was rapidly changing as well about
that time, and the main force behind this change was
a rising new Turkic leader named Muchou

Muchou revived the Turkic empire, and later had
a profound influence on the founding of Balhae as well.

There was also a small but active movement around
Mt.Baekdu and Mt.Dongmo led by Dae Joyoung.

Dae Joyoung`s force grew quietly but quickly making
the most of Tang`s decline caused by Turkic invasions

and Wu Zetian`s rise to the throne.

-Let`s go!
-Let`s go!

Years had passed,
and one day in the year 695....

~Lower north battle front: Turkic Camp~

Go back?

Are you suggesting we retreat?

These men are like any we fought before.

And the troops are exhausted from continous fighting.
~Tonyukuk~

Zhang Xuanyu and Ma Renjie?
~Muchou~

Are they the generals leading the army?

Their commanding general is Li Kaigu.
~Bilge~

-Li Kaigu?
-Yes, Khan.

He`s a khitan.

Li Kaigu....

We`ve swept through the western region.

All we need is the lower north region and
we can advance east all the way to Yingzhou.

You would have me stop here?

But father,
~Inal~

And if our opponent is a Khitan warrior,
that`s another reason why I can`t retreat.

Prepare the troops for battle!

I will spearhead the battle and slay Li Kaigu myself!

~Lower north battle front: ~

The Turkic army is as impressive as rumored.

But it`s clear they were taken aback by our size.

Perhaps we should make the first move.

They are the ones exhausted from the continuous fighting.
Why make the first move and save them the trouble?
~Li Kaigu~

That`s right.
The more we harass them the better.
~Shin Hong~

They will soon launch an all out offensive.

I want the two of you to lead the left and right advance

Yes, sir.

Xue Jitou and Doyeop, remain seated.

I want you to take your troops out tonight
and raid the Turkic camp.

A raid, sir?

General, is there a special reason why we should attack first?

Didn`t you hear the military envoy?
The more we harass them the better.

After you harass them all night with your troops,
Zhang Xuanyu and Ma Renjie will deal with them in
the morningh.

We will harass them night and day.

Yes, sir!

We won`t let you down, sir.

General, I`d like to speak to you privately.

-I have a bad news to report.
-A bad news?

The Tang court is sending a director general to Yingzhou.

A director general?

But the Khan is the governor general of Yingzhou!

The Khan will become powerless.

All of the decision making power
will be given to the director general.

Why would they do this?

This is a serious matter.

It means the Emperor has no intention of giving us Yingzhou.

She can`t do this!

I fought every battle I was assigned to for this country!

And thanks to that you have survived countless purges.

I think the time has come for us to leave Tang as well.

It`s time to get out and pursue a grander dream.

I`ve waited long to hear those words.

You have tens of thousands of soldiers that
trust you and follow you even without Zhang and Ma.

They are hard fighting soldiers that risked
their lives with you in countless battles.

They are loyal to you and you only.
You have nothing to fear.

Who was assigned director general?

It`s Zhao Wenhui.

Zhao Wenhui?

He`s got military top brass Li Wen is watching
his back and he acts without bounds.

Watch Yingzhou carefully.

If he does anything to hurt my family or my people,
I will turn my army around.

The time has come indeed,
but we must be very careful.

How could they do this!

Make a proclamation!
Make it now!

~Yingzhou Municipal Square~

A director?

They could not do this if they had any respect for Khitan!

Be that as it may, we don`t have
the strength to stand up to Tang.

We can`t let them do this to us.
~Chulin~

We`ve sacrificed our blood and sweat for Tang.

I know how you feel.
~Sun Wanrong~

But if we rub them the wrong way in Li Kaigu`s absence,
there could be serious consequences.

Of all civil officials they`re sending
Li Wen`s man Zhao Wenhui!

Khan!

-the director general`s entourage has arrived at the east gate.
-Go out and escort him back to the compound.

There is a problem, sir.

-A problem?
-What problem?

He is threatening to turn back and return to Tang
if you don`t come out and great him personally.

What?
Great him?

I will not welcome him!

-I`ll go out there and deal with this.
-Ma`am you can`t do that.

If they turn around and return to Tang,
this situation will get out of control.

If he insists on turning around,
I will kill him.

No, I will go out there and greet him.

Father!

It`s too soon to go up against them.

But...

We`ve put our pride aside and submit to them countless times.
Onemore time won`t make a difference.

Let`s go.

We will go to the east gate now.

Such audacity...
~Zhao Wenhui~

That young soldier!

He`s starring at us like he wants to kill us.

Where is he?

What is keeping him?

We are envoys serving the imperial command.
How dare he keep us waiting!

That little punk won`t even answer my question!

The Khan has arrived.

-Grandfather.
-Open the gate.

-Grandfather perhaps we should send them back.
-They were sent here by the Emperor herself.

I don`t like their eyes.
They will nring us great harm.

Open the gate.

-Open the gate.
-Yes, sir.

Open the gate! Quickly!

Welcome, Lord Zhao.

You have traveled far to be with us.

I know this is the border country,
but how could you be so uncouth?

What do you mean, sire?

It is customary to give the imperial envoy a warm
welcoming.But you were not here to great me.

I am here now, am I not?

Please don`t be upset and come inside.

I`ve come to govern the entire Yingzhou
province under the imperial authority.

I will abide strickly by the rules,
so be on your toes at all times.

Close the gate!
Close the gate!

What do you mean by this?

All soldiers bearing arms are inspected
before they are allowed
~Li Geom~

to enter the city regardless of who they serve.

What? Inspected?

They are the guards of the imperial palace
that escorted me on my travel!
Let them in at once!

You have just said you will abide strickly by the rules, sir.

For as long as I have been guarding this gate,
I have not once allowed soldier to enter without
an inspection.

That is the rule of the east gate.

Govenor general,
do care to explain this insolence?

Even I am put through the process when I travel with my guards.

Your soldiers will join you as soon as they are inspected.
So please wait for them at the municipal square.

Very well. I will.

It`s a good thing to have rules.

Let`s go.

Don`t worry, Mother.

They started this intimidation contest.

Father said a man must never lose no matter what the contest.

I trust you whatever you do.

Disarm the guards outside and put them in line!

General, it`s Subong.

Did you located Xue Rengui?

I`m told he is living in a small village outside the city.

What could that old man be up to?

I heard the Emperor sent a messenger to him.

Emperor Wu sent a messenger to Xue Rengui?
~Li Wen~

-I think she`s going to call him back.
-He left of his own accord.

Why would he come back?

But I do have to hand it to him.

All of his comrades are dead including
Heichi Changzhi, but he`s still alive.

Check!

Check mate!

-General! General!
-Ah, yes...Good...

Mm, vegetable dumplings.
Delicious.

What are you waiting for?
It`s your turn.

No, it`s your turn, general.
~Hongpei~

It is?
Let`s see.
~Xue Rengui~

General.

Her Majesty is waiting for your return.
~Wu Sansi~

My man,

What use does she have for a stinky old farmer like me?

Check!

General, this is not a knight, it`s a cannon.
You can`t move a cannon like a knight.

Goodness, it is a cannon!

Let me do it over.
-Not again.

Come on.

There is a situation developing outside the city.
We need you.

Do you?

Are you aware of the eminent danger this country is in?

I`m losing my eyesight in my old age,

nut my foresight is clear even when I close my eyes.

Tell us.

What do you forsee happening?

Turks already own the west.

But the real danger is not the west

but the east.

General, I know that Muchou is in the west,
but who is in the east?

There`s a great tiger that`s been
growing fat in silence.

A tiger?

Yes, a tiger!

And he`s slowly crawling down the mountain.
And soon he will reveal himself to the world.

Huh?

Who is this man you speak of?

Check!

you`re trapped, kiddo!

We are General Dae Joyoung`s men bearing his message!
Lead us imside!

~Heishui Mohe Tribe Settlement Near Heilongiang~

What is this?

We can`t grant you a public post at this time.
But write down the post you wish to have in the future,
~Gulsabiwu~

and General Dae will grant you that post
when the time comes.

Are you telling us to surrender?

That`s entirely up to you.

But if you don`t write the post on that scoll,
there will be an obituary.
~Heuk Sudol~

That means death!

All of the other tribes in the area have
surrendered and vowed loyalty!
~Gaepilsamun~

Wheter you surrender or not, this is where our
troops will be having breakfast tomorrow morning!

-Welcome, general!
-General!

The seven tribes of Heishui Mohe swear to serve you with loyalty
and devotion from this moment foward.

Loyalty!!!!!
