1
00:00:59,559 --> 00:01:04,059
"255 BC"

2
00:01:04,522 --> 00:01:09,022
"255 BC" "Qin State, at the
western edge of the Middle Kingdom"

3
00:01:49,108 --> 00:01:51,151
Look!

4
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,695
That looks like General Wang Yi.

5
00:01:57,908 --> 00:02:02,245
So that's one of Qin's six greatest generals?

6
00:02:02,455 --> 00:02:04,707
His army's so majestic.

7
00:02:08,502 --> 00:02:13,002
The great Wang Yi,
who leads an army of thousands.

8
00:02:35,404 --> 00:02:37,364
Amazing...

9
00:02:52,171 --> 00:02:55,465
The Spring and Autumn
and Warring States periods:

10
00:02:55,675 --> 00:02:59,303
an era of upheaval that
stretched back to ancient times.

11
00:02:59,512 --> 00:03:03,682
Seven states were at war
on the great continent.

12
00:03:06,811 --> 00:03:11,311
Kings sent out generals with
armies of hundreds of thousands,

13
00:03:12,441 --> 00:03:16,941
but the 500 years of bloodshed
showed no sign of ending.

14
00:03:25,788 --> 00:03:29,124
In the great western state of Qin,

15
00:03:29,333 --> 00:03:33,833
a chance meeting between two boys
was about to change the course of history.

16
00:04:04,994 --> 00:04:06,412
Come!

17
00:04:20,509 --> 00:04:25,009
You'll start work tomorrow at daybreak.

18
00:04:25,222 --> 00:04:26,806
Understood?

19
00:04:30,311 --> 00:04:32,479
Look after him.

20
00:04:41,781 --> 00:04:43,157
I'm Piao.

21
00:04:45,826 --> 00:04:48,537
My name is Xin.

22
00:04:50,498 --> 00:04:53,250
No! How many times have I told you?

23
00:04:53,459 --> 00:04:55,669
Ow, ow, ow!

24
00:04:55,878 --> 00:05:00,257
Live up to the price I paid for you!

25
00:05:02,676 --> 00:05:07,176
Piao! Show him how to do it.

26
00:05:07,556 --> 00:05:11,768
That lying slave merchant...

27
00:05:13,687 --> 00:05:17,816
Dammit, I'm gonna escape this hole!

28
00:05:19,568 --> 00:05:22,404
You can't.

29
00:05:22,613 --> 00:05:27,113
If you're born a slave, you're a slave forever.

30
00:05:27,701 --> 00:05:30,120
Your kids are slaves, too.

31
00:05:32,081 --> 00:05:36,376
There's no climbing out of the slave class.

32
00:05:40,965 --> 00:05:44,551
But there is one way...

33
00:05:49,139 --> 00:05:51,975
With swords.

34
00:05:52,184 --> 00:05:53,685
Swords?

35
00:06:05,698 --> 00:06:09,118
This is not a sword...

36
00:06:11,078 --> 00:06:12,621
Ouch!

37
00:06:13,789 --> 00:06:16,166
What was that for?

38
00:06:16,375 --> 00:06:18,960
We'll spar 10,000 times.

39
00:06:19,169 --> 00:06:21,087
Ten thousand?

40
00:06:21,297 --> 00:06:23,048
How many is that?

41
00:06:23,257 --> 00:06:25,217
Many. Let's go!

42
00:06:25,426 --> 00:06:29,221
Will we get out of here if we do this?

43
00:06:29,430 --> 00:06:33,767
Not just that! We'll be the
greatest generals on earth!

44
00:06:33,976 --> 00:06:35,686
The greatest generals...

45
00:06:45,738 --> 00:06:50,238
If we fight 10,000 bouts like our lives depend
on it, I know we can be great generals.

46
00:06:51,327 --> 00:06:54,705
I'm gonna be a great general!

47
00:06:54,914 --> 00:06:56,248
Let's escape this hole together!

48
00:06:56,457 --> 00:06:57,708
Yeah!

49
00:07:33,035 --> 00:07:35,078
You brute!

50
00:07:36,580 --> 00:07:38,164
A bird!

51
00:07:39,583 --> 00:07:41,835
Oh, no, you don't!

52
00:07:44,046 --> 00:07:45,547
Look.

53
00:07:45,756 --> 00:07:48,175
--Who's that?
--That old trick!

54
00:07:50,177 --> 00:07:52,762
Yes! I won!

55
00:07:52,972 --> 00:07:57,472
334 wins, 332 losses,
587 draws out of 1,253 bouts.

56
00:07:58,227 --> 00:08:00,979
I'm two ahead. That's the first time in a year.

57
00:08:03,857 --> 00:08:06,651
Uh-oh, did you pass out?

58
00:08:15,452 --> 00:08:18,288
Hey, old man! You made me lose!

59
00:08:18,497 --> 00:08:20,499
Back off, will you?

60
00:08:20,708 --> 00:08:22,835
He's a noble warrior.

61
00:08:25,671 --> 00:08:29,966
Who taught you swordsmanship?

62
00:08:33,012 --> 00:08:35,931
No one taught us!

63
00:08:40,728 --> 00:08:42,771
I'll take my leave.

64
00:08:42,980 --> 00:08:45,524
Wait, old man!

65
00:08:45,733 --> 00:08:47,401
Cut it out!

66
00:08:47,609 --> 00:08:49,235
Why?

67
00:08:53,323 --> 00:08:55,783
Who are those boys?

68
00:08:55,993 --> 00:08:59,705
This encounter just might...

69
00:08:59,913 --> 00:09:02,290
...change fate.

70
00:09:03,542 --> 00:09:05,335
Fate?

71
00:09:11,550 --> 00:09:16,050
My Lord, you came all this way
to my forsaken farm...

72
00:09:17,556 --> 00:09:20,392
I am humbled.

73
00:09:22,102 --> 00:09:26,397
Look, Piao. It's that man we met!

74
00:09:30,277 --> 00:09:33,196
He's back!

75
00:09:33,405 --> 00:09:36,074
Good work, Piao, dear boy!

76
00:09:36,283 --> 00:09:39,828
Never mind these sticks.

77
00:09:40,037 --> 00:09:41,371
"Dear boy"...?

78
00:09:41,580 --> 00:09:45,250
That is Lord Changwen.

79
00:09:45,459 --> 00:09:48,920
He's one of the king's chancellors.

80
00:09:49,129 --> 00:09:53,629
He has offered to buy your freedom!

81
00:09:53,884 --> 00:09:58,138
That's it! He recognized our swordsmanship.

82
00:09:58,347 --> 00:09:59,765
I'm
in!

83
00:09:59,973 --> 00:10:03,393
Xin, you go to the hut and work!

84
00:10:03,602 --> 00:10:06,855
Piao, you come over here.

85
00:10:09,942 --> 00:10:10,984
Huh?

86
00:10:17,366 --> 00:10:19,368
Piao.

87
00:10:19,576 --> 00:10:24,076
You'll work in the palace as of tomorrow.

88
00:10:24,373 --> 00:10:27,459
Get ready. We'll leave now.

89
00:10:29,211 --> 00:10:32,672
Me... at the palace...?

90
00:10:34,466 --> 00:10:38,966
A war orphan can't pass up
an opportunity like this.

91
00:10:41,181 --> 00:10:43,433
Only if Xin comes with me!

92
00:10:43,642 --> 00:10:45,060
Xin...?

93
00:10:49,690 --> 00:10:52,734
Xin is as good as me.
He will surely be of use.

94
00:10:52,943 --> 00:10:57,113
Piao, you're the only one I'll take.

95
00:10:58,824 --> 00:11:02,536
Accept the offer, dear boy.

96
00:11:02,744 --> 00:11:06,873
What an honor to work for the king!

97
00:11:09,418 --> 00:11:13,130
Can I have a day to think it over, sir?

98
00:11:13,338 --> 00:11:14,464
Piao!

99
00:11:16,175 --> 00:11:17,676
As you wish.

100
00:11:23,140 --> 00:11:27,018
I know you were listening.

101
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:34,980
We've been working hard to leave this life.

102
00:11:35,319 --> 00:11:37,195
And one day become...

103
00:11:37,404 --> 00:11:39,781
...the greatest generals.

104
00:11:43,577 --> 00:11:47,914
So it's unfair if only I take this shortcut--

105
00:11:48,123 --> 00:11:50,625
Don't worry about me, you idiot!

106
00:11:50,834 --> 00:11:54,128
You thought I was worried?

107
00:11:57,841 --> 00:11:59,592
I'm going.

108
00:12:05,599 --> 00:12:09,102
Go ahead, Piao.

109
00:12:22,074 --> 00:12:23,450
Xin.

110
00:12:24,493 --> 00:12:27,037
We're headed for the same place!

111
00:12:30,916 --> 00:12:33,835
I'll get ahead of you in no time!

112
00:12:36,922 --> 00:12:41,422
We have more bouts to fight. Keep training.

113
00:12:43,804 --> 00:12:46,181
Just you wait, Piao!

114
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,281
It won't be long before we meet again, Xin.

115
00:13:24,011 --> 00:13:27,139
Just you wait, Piao.

116
00:13:27,347 --> 00:13:29,766
I'll get so strong.

117
00:13:29,975 --> 00:13:34,062
I'll get strong and get out of here!

118
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:53,581
Damn!

119
00:14:43,548 --> 00:14:46,676
Wait for me, Piao.

120
00:14:46,885 --> 00:14:49,512
I'll catch up!

121
00:15:36,601 --> 00:15:39,562
I'm back, Xin.

122
00:15:39,771 --> 00:15:41,689
Piao!

123
00:15:42,732 --> 00:15:44,817
Hey... Hey!

124
00:15:45,026 --> 00:15:46,944
What happened?

125
00:15:48,238 --> 00:15:50,031
Wake up.

126
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,492
Open your eyes! Come on, open them!

127
00:15:52,701 --> 00:15:55,120
What is it, Xin? Robbers?

128
00:15:55,328 --> 00:15:57,163
Li Dian! Call the doctor!

129
00:15:57,372 --> 00:16:01,209
Piao... Why are you bleeding so badly...?

130
00:16:01,418 --> 00:16:04,045
I won't need a doctor.

131
00:16:04,254 --> 00:16:08,754
I'm glad I heard your voice one last time...

132
00:16:09,092 --> 00:16:13,592
"Last time"? That's not funny!

133
00:16:14,139 --> 00:16:16,558
Piao!

134
00:16:16,766 --> 00:16:21,266
The king's brother staged
a mutiny at the palace.

135
00:16:24,357 --> 00:16:28,857
His men will trace my blood to this place.

136
00:16:29,196 --> 00:16:33,696
Li Dian, when that happens...

137
00:16:33,909 --> 00:16:38,409
...tell them you found me dead,
and you don't know me.

138
00:16:38,705 --> 00:16:40,957
Let them take my body.

139
00:16:41,166 --> 00:16:44,043
Never!

140
00:16:44,252 --> 00:16:47,505
They're all dead if they try.

141
00:16:50,258 --> 00:16:54,095
I love that attitude of yours...

142
00:16:54,304 --> 00:16:56,681
But now...

143
00:16:56,890 --> 00:17:00,435
...I need you to do me a favor.

144
00:17:00,644 --> 00:17:02,228
Go here.

145
00:17:09,444 --> 00:17:10,945
A map?

146
00:17:11,154 --> 00:17:14,157
It's near Heibei Village.

147
00:17:14,366 --> 00:17:18,620
I came to give you this. Leave now.

148
00:17:18,828 --> 00:17:23,328
Why? I have no idea what this is about!

149
00:17:31,299 --> 00:17:35,799
Okay, Xin? I'm counting on you.

150
00:17:39,432 --> 00:17:41,725
Yes.

151
00:17:41,935 --> 00:17:46,064
Yes, I'll do it. Just don't die...

152
00:17:46,273 --> 00:17:50,773
You said we'd be the
greatest generals on earth!

153
00:17:51,069 --> 00:17:54,363
Don't break our promise.

154
00:17:59,202 --> 00:18:00,995
We will be.

155
00:18:02,247 --> 00:18:06,747
Xin, you're as strong as me.
We share the same spirit.

156
00:18:08,753 --> 00:18:11,130
You and I are one.

157
00:18:13,008 --> 00:18:17,508
If you soar... I'll soar with you.

158
00:18:19,973 --> 00:18:21,516
Xin...

159
00:18:23,893 --> 00:18:28,272
Take me with you...

160
00:18:28,481 --> 00:18:30,774
...when you conquer the world.

161
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:52,588
Piao...

162
00:18:55,091 --> 00:18:56,675
Piao...

163
00:19:01,681 --> 00:19:05,017
Piao!

164
00:19:31,294 --> 00:19:33,296
I'll kill them...

165
00:19:34,923 --> 00:19:37,258
I'll kill them all!

166
00:19:55,151 --> 00:19:58,696
Xin? I'm counting on you.

167
00:20:50,415 --> 00:20:51,999
Is he there?

168
00:20:54,419 --> 00:20:56,003
Go inside.

169
00:21:05,513 --> 00:21:07,348
He's a double.

170
00:21:07,557 --> 00:21:08,766
What?

171
00:21:08,975 --> 00:21:13,475
Your assassin clan has 200 years
of history, but you were tricked.

172
00:21:19,027 --> 00:21:21,195
Lord Zuo Ci.

173
00:21:21,404 --> 00:21:25,904
The villagers are restless
and asking questions.

174
00:21:26,826 --> 00:21:30,204
Lord, it's late. What's going on?

175
00:21:38,922 --> 00:21:43,422
Kill all the villagers who saw us.

176
00:21:45,637 --> 00:21:47,472
Set fire to the village!

177
00:21:51,601 --> 00:21:54,020
His sword is gone...

178
00:22:05,865 --> 00:22:10,365
You're right. He's carrying a valuable sword.

179
00:22:14,290 --> 00:22:17,084
You scored big for once.

180
00:22:30,223 --> 00:22:31,849
Out of my way.

181
00:22:34,018 --> 00:22:37,271
Give up your sword and you'll live.

182
00:22:47,282 --> 00:22:49,242
Master!

183
00:22:49,450 --> 00:22:50,742
He's good.

184
00:22:52,078 --> 00:22:54,205
Get him, all of you!

185
00:23:06,968 --> 00:23:11,013
I have no time to waste on you!

186
00:23:36,205 --> 00:23:38,707
It wasn't King Ying Zheng.

187
00:23:38,917 --> 00:23:42,712
His double was in a village
burned down by General Zuo Ci.

188
00:23:42,921 --> 00:23:47,300
We have tracked him, Your Highness.

189
00:23:47,508 --> 00:23:52,008
We'll soon deliver your brother
King Ying Zheng's head to you.

190
00:23:54,891 --> 00:23:56,642
King...?

191
00:24:00,772 --> 00:24:03,107
I am the king.

192
00:24:11,324 --> 00:24:15,824
The head I want isn't the king's
or my brother's.

193
00:24:17,163 --> 00:24:20,457
It's Ying Zheng, the criminal's.

194
00:24:38,977 --> 00:24:40,478
Piao...

195
00:24:43,022 --> 00:24:46,191
Why did I come here...

196
00:24:46,401 --> 00:24:49,362
...instead of avenging your death?

197
00:24:52,865 --> 00:24:56,577
You owe me an explanation, Piao.

198
00:25:27,650 --> 00:25:29,234
Piao...

199
00:25:55,344 --> 00:25:57,054
Piao.

200
00:25:58,765 --> 00:26:00,600
How come...?

201
00:26:02,852 --> 00:26:04,854
You're alive.

202
00:26:05,063 --> 00:26:06,898
You're Xin?

203
00:26:11,486 --> 00:26:13,946
My explanation will have to wait.

204
00:26:23,581 --> 00:26:28,081
I'll take your life, Ying Zheng... King of Qin.

205
00:26:31,339 --> 00:26:32,923
King of Qin?

206
00:26:46,646 --> 00:26:48,689
You're a Vermilion Slayer...

207
00:26:50,149 --> 00:26:54,528
I had no idea the kid was
your double. You fooled me.

208
00:26:55,822 --> 00:26:58,282
He was some warrior.

209
00:27:06,499 --> 00:27:10,127
Wait a second! What are you talking about?

210
00:27:10,336 --> 00:27:12,755
What about a double?

211
00:27:14,006 --> 00:27:16,008
What do you mean, "king"?

212
00:27:20,638 --> 00:27:24,558
The king's brother staged
a mutiny at the palace.

213
00:27:29,939 --> 00:27:32,608
Abandon hope, King.

214
00:27:32,817 --> 00:27:36,987
No one in history has ever escaped my sword.

215
00:27:37,196 --> 00:27:41,116
The king's head belongs
to the Vermilion Slayer Clan.

216
00:27:50,835 --> 00:27:55,335
I'm beginning to understand...

217
00:27:55,882 --> 00:27:58,926
I know what's going on!

218
00:28:03,139 --> 00:28:06,225
You're the king...

219
00:28:06,434 --> 00:28:09,562
...of Qin State.

220
00:28:09,770 --> 00:28:13,607
Piao closely resembled you...

221
00:28:15,651 --> 00:28:20,151
So he was taken to the
palace to replace you...

222
00:28:20,615 --> 00:28:23,743
...and was assassinated instead of you.

223
00:28:27,079 --> 00:28:30,957
Piao died in your place.

224
00:28:33,628 --> 00:28:36,005
You asshole!

225
00:28:36,214 --> 00:28:40,635
You can kill the king if you want, kid.

226
00:28:40,843 --> 00:28:43,470
But his head is mine.

227
00:28:45,056 --> 00:28:47,558
I will.

228
00:28:47,767 --> 00:28:50,102
I'll kill him!

229
00:28:51,145 --> 00:28:53,939
But first, I'll kill you.

230
00:28:57,693 --> 00:29:00,404
You killed Piao.

231
00:29:00,613 --> 00:29:04,366
I'll gut you for what you did to him!

232
00:29:34,230 --> 00:29:37,149
You're as good as the double.

233
00:29:37,358 --> 00:29:39,526
Stay down.

234
00:30:05,428 --> 00:30:08,973
You can still move? Impressive.

235
00:30:09,974 --> 00:30:12,267
Just focus on one thing.

236
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:19,020
Avenge Piao. That's all you need to do.

237
00:30:20,276 --> 00:30:23,153
Shut up.

238
00:30:23,362 --> 00:30:26,865
Don't you dare mention his name!

239
00:30:32,371 --> 00:30:34,539
You killed Piao...

240
00:30:36,667 --> 00:30:39,294
He...

241
00:30:39,503 --> 00:30:41,463
Piao...

242
00:30:43,174 --> 00:30:45,926
Piao will...

243
00:30:46,135 --> 00:30:48,679
...never live again!

244
00:31:07,823 --> 00:31:09,741
Die!

245
00:31:13,371 --> 00:31:15,456
Your Majesty.

246
00:31:15,664 --> 00:31:20,164
If I am killed, please rely on Xin.

247
00:31:21,921 --> 00:31:23,589
I know that he...

248
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,092
...will fly higher than anyone.

249
00:31:36,143 --> 00:31:38,979
You killed Piao...

250
00:31:44,527 --> 00:31:46,654
Wait!

251
00:31:46,862 --> 00:31:50,532
I have a family. I have four kids.

252
00:31:54,078 --> 00:31:56,955
They'll be orphans if I die.

253
00:31:57,164 --> 00:31:59,499
They'll become slaves.

254
00:32:00,709 --> 00:32:03,378
Please let me go...

255
00:32:11,220 --> 00:32:14,598
Your children are irrelevant to your crimes.

256
00:32:24,650 --> 00:32:26,568
What's next?

257
00:32:28,571 --> 00:32:30,364
Will you kill me?

258
00:32:32,700 --> 00:32:34,159
In that case...

259
00:32:36,620 --> 00:32:39,247
... won't die without a fight.

260
00:32:40,833 --> 00:32:44,878
To honor those who died protecting me.

261
00:32:46,338 --> 00:32:48,506
Including Piao.

262
00:32:58,142 --> 00:32:59,476
We have a problem.

263
00:33:03,647 --> 00:33:05,065
Hey!

264
00:33:07,818 --> 00:33:09,236
Is that...

265
00:33:10,779 --> 00:33:13,531
...my village?

266
00:33:13,741 --> 00:33:15,909
They'll come for us.

267
00:33:17,161 --> 00:33:20,038
My brother must control the army now...

268
00:33:20,247 --> 00:33:23,792
They're the ones who were after Piao?

269
00:33:24,001 --> 00:33:27,963
Shit. Looks like I have to fight some more.

270
00:33:28,172 --> 00:33:29,047
Coming?

271
00:33:29,256 --> 00:33:33,385
Hey! You'd take on an army?

272
00:33:33,594 --> 00:33:35,220
Sure.

273
00:33:35,429 --> 00:33:37,222
Stay close.

274
00:33:37,431 --> 00:33:38,849
Close?

275
00:33:39,058 --> 00:33:43,558
I'll decide whether to kill you
after I'm done with them!

276
00:33:44,980 --> 00:33:47,565
So don't you dare run.

277
00:33:47,775 --> 00:33:48,776
This way!

278
00:33:48,984 --> 00:33:50,902
It's on fire!

279
00:33:51,111 --> 00:33:52,862
You coming or what?

280
00:33:53,072 --> 00:33:55,324
Yes. Do I have a choice?

281
00:33:55,533 --> 00:33:56,784
Let's go!

282
00:34:02,206 --> 00:34:03,373
You're that guy from before.

283
00:34:03,582 --> 00:34:05,667
Follow me. I know a way out.

284
00:34:05,876 --> 00:34:07,043
A way out?

285
00:34:07,253 --> 00:34:10,130
I don't trust this robber!

286
00:34:10,339 --> 00:34:12,007
Why help us?

287
00:34:12,216 --> 00:34:16,716
Because you're the king. Kings are rich.

288
00:34:17,012 --> 00:34:19,139
--You want money.
--Is that bad?

289
00:34:19,348 --> 00:34:22,559
No. I can trust your motives.

290
00:34:22,768 --> 00:34:26,605
You trust someone who
hides behind a mask?

291
00:34:31,527 --> 00:34:33,779
I'm He Liao Diao.

292
00:34:33,988 --> 00:34:36,031
You're a kid!

293
00:34:36,240 --> 00:34:39,910
You know my face and name, so let's go.

294
00:34:40,119 --> 00:34:42,246
Lead us, He Liao.

295
00:34:42,454 --> 00:34:44,330
Call me Diao.

296
00:34:44,540 --> 00:34:46,542
Hey!

297
00:34:46,750 --> 00:34:47,876
I said hey!

298
00:35:03,475 --> 00:35:07,975
Hey, King, I heard your
brother staged a revolt.

299
00:35:08,230 --> 00:35:12,730
Can a runaway king like you really pay me?

300
00:35:13,527 --> 00:35:18,027
What kind of guy loses his throne
to his kid brother, anyway?

301
00:35:24,455 --> 00:35:26,081
Which way?

302
00:35:28,792 --> 00:35:30,919
To the left...

303
00:35:35,799 --> 00:35:38,301
Don't be scared, sissy.

304
00:35:40,054 --> 00:35:42,139
I'm not scared.

305
00:35:44,725 --> 00:35:49,225
The mutiny happened because
I simply wasn't strong enough.

306
00:35:52,316 --> 00:35:56,816
Lord Changwen, sensing that we couldn't
prevent it, came up with a plot.

307
00:35:57,946 --> 00:36:02,408
He's the man who took Piao away from me.

308
00:36:02,618 --> 00:36:07,118
He met a young man
who looked exactly like me.

309
00:36:09,667 --> 00:36:14,167
He became my double,
just in case. That saved me.

310
00:36:15,631 --> 00:36:17,507
Wait a second.

311
00:36:21,053 --> 00:36:23,180
"Just in case"?

312
00:36:25,182 --> 00:36:27,684
And you were saved?

313
00:36:29,311 --> 00:36:30,353
Damn you!

314
00:36:30,562 --> 00:36:32,063
Stop it!

315
00:36:32,272 --> 00:36:36,772
You thought Piao's life was of no value.

316
00:36:37,069 --> 00:36:41,569
We promised to become
the greatest generals on earth.

317
00:36:42,032 --> 00:36:45,869
Win many battles, live in grand homes...

318
00:36:46,078 --> 00:36:48,872
...and eat incredible feasts!

319
00:36:51,917 --> 00:36:54,336
I'm fighting a war!

320
00:36:54,545 --> 00:36:58,173
I'll use anything to win.

321
00:36:58,382 --> 00:37:01,134
I'd certainly use you slaves.

322
00:37:03,011 --> 00:37:04,721
But...

323
00:37:04,930 --> 00:37:07,098
...Piao knew.

324
00:37:10,894 --> 00:37:12,604
A double...?

325
00:37:13,897 --> 00:37:18,276
You'll be safe. There are
escape plans in place.

326
00:37:18,485 --> 00:37:20,695
Don't fool him, Lord Changwen.

327
00:37:22,740 --> 00:37:24,783
Is your name Piao?

328
00:37:24,992 --> 00:37:28,996
The truth, Piao, is that
there's no guarantee.

329
00:37:29,204 --> 00:37:33,041
The enemy's blades may reach you.

330
00:37:33,250 --> 00:37:35,794
In that case...

331
00:37:36,003 --> 00:37:38,588
...you'll be killed instead of me.

332
00:37:46,430 --> 00:37:48,140
No words?

333
00:37:50,809 --> 00:37:52,227
Piao.

334
00:37:57,107 --> 00:38:01,607
I never dreamed I'd be assigned
such an honorable duty.

335
00:38:08,535 --> 00:38:10,370
You could die.

336
00:38:10,579 --> 00:38:15,079
My friend and I had a dream
that defied the odds.

337
00:38:17,002 --> 00:38:20,296
We'd make our mark as great generals.

338
00:38:20,506 --> 00:38:24,843
I'd already prepared to risk my life for that.

339
00:38:28,514 --> 00:38:31,308
Piao took a risk...

340
00:38:32,893 --> 00:38:37,393
...to seize something out of a slave's reach!

341
00:38:44,947 --> 00:38:48,951
And he lost. That's all.

342
00:39:03,715 --> 00:39:06,092
Xin.

343
00:39:06,301 --> 00:39:09,887
With those tears, your mourning ends.

344
00:39:11,682 --> 00:39:14,101
You walk your own path.

345
00:39:17,062 --> 00:39:21,232
You're at a crossroads now.

346
00:39:22,860 --> 00:39:26,488
Go back to being a slave...

347
00:39:26,697 --> 00:39:31,197
...or help a flailing king
and walk a path of strife.

348
00:39:48,552 --> 00:39:49,761
Xin.

349
00:39:51,013 --> 00:39:54,808
We share the same spirit.

350
00:39:55,017 --> 00:39:59,517
If you soar, I'll soar with you.

351
00:40:02,691 --> 00:40:06,986
Take me with you...

352
00:40:07,195 --> 00:40:09,488
...when you conquer the world.

353
00:40:11,325 --> 00:40:12,951
Piao.

354
00:40:14,995 --> 00:40:16,705
Let's go.

355
00:40:52,324 --> 00:40:56,824
Don't get me wrong.
I'm just using you for my own gain.

356
00:40:57,496 --> 00:41:00,916
And you're not my retainer.

357
00:41:01,124 --> 00:41:05,169
You're a sword that
I'll throw away if it breaks.

358
00:41:06,463 --> 00:41:08,339
Fine by me, you ass.

359
00:41:08,548 --> 00:41:11,509
Now what? Got a plan?

360
00:41:11,718 --> 00:41:14,554
Lord Changwen is my only hope.

361
00:41:14,763 --> 00:41:17,348
We'll rendezvous at the border.

362
00:41:17,557 --> 00:41:20,184
That man...

363
00:41:20,394 --> 00:41:22,604
We should get going.

364
00:41:26,984 --> 00:41:30,237
Don't forget that you owe me!

365
00:41:42,708 --> 00:41:45,544
The Vermilion Slayer was killed?!

366
00:41:45,752 --> 00:41:49,255
But Ying Zheng won't elude

367
00:41:49,464 --> 00:41:51,132
General Zuo Ci and his army.

368
00:41:51,341 --> 00:41:54,844
And there's Mu Ta,
the assassin from the Basha Clan.

369
00:41:55,053 --> 00:41:57,430
His head will be yours.

370
00:41:57,639 --> 00:42:02,139
It's your fault we lost our best assassin!

371
00:42:05,772 --> 00:42:07,064
I apologize.

372
00:42:07,274 --> 00:42:11,774
You keep promising
to deliver Ying Zheng's head.

373
00:42:12,029 --> 00:42:15,741
I might as well have you beheaded!

374
00:42:17,325 --> 00:42:18,743
Please calm down.

375
00:42:18,952 --> 00:42:21,371
Damn it!

376
00:42:21,580 --> 00:42:26,080
Lord Changwen used a double
to help my brother escape.

377
00:42:27,961 --> 00:42:31,631
So bring me Lord Changwen's head, too!

378
00:42:33,508 --> 00:42:36,260
Rest easy on that score.

379
00:42:44,686 --> 00:42:46,104
General Wang Yi...

380
00:42:46,313 --> 00:42:49,691
You're here, General!

381
00:42:49,900 --> 00:42:53,945
He's the last of the six
greatest generals of Qin.

382
00:42:54,154 --> 00:42:58,654
Didn't he lose interest
in fighting and retire?

383
00:43:03,413 --> 00:43:07,913
We haven't met for a long time, General.

384
00:43:09,377 --> 00:43:12,963
What do you want from us?

385
00:43:13,173 --> 00:43:17,260
What unkind words!

386
00:43:17,469 --> 00:43:21,969
Especially when I'm here
to satisfy one of your desires.

387
00:43:23,850 --> 00:43:26,269
--Teng!
--Yes, sir.

388
00:43:55,549 --> 00:44:00,049
This is Lord Changwen's head.

389
00:44:00,387 --> 00:44:02,430
Amazing...

390
00:44:02,639 --> 00:44:05,516
General Wang Yi did it!

391
00:44:09,229 --> 00:44:12,065
You remain the best, General!

392
00:44:14,359 --> 00:44:18,363
The face is unrecognizable in this condition.

393
00:44:19,447 --> 00:44:23,947
What's that? You dare to doubt me, Si Shi?

394
00:44:25,704 --> 00:44:29,541
I do not question you...

395
00:44:29,749 --> 00:44:33,794
...but it's my job to determine the facts.

396
00:44:34,004 --> 00:44:37,549
Anyone who dares to fight me ends up

397
00:44:37,757 --> 00:44:40,468
with a pulverized face.

398
00:44:40,677 --> 00:44:45,177
I can prove it with
one of your men if you like.

399
00:44:48,435 --> 00:44:52,397
What is it that you want?

400
00:44:55,525 --> 00:44:59,237
I want a world that enthralls me.

401
00:44:59,446 --> 00:45:01,489
What?

402
00:45:01,698 --> 00:45:06,198
He's a clown. He's fooling with us.

403
00:45:06,828 --> 00:45:11,328
I'd like Lord Changwen's domain
in exchange for his head.

404
00:45:13,335 --> 00:45:16,046
You're out of line!

405
00:45:17,297 --> 00:45:19,424
He can have it.

406
00:45:19,633 --> 00:45:21,593
Your Highness!

407
00:45:23,511 --> 00:45:26,931
I'm humbly grateful, Your Highness.

408
00:45:36,858 --> 00:45:39,902
Are you sure?

409
00:45:40,111 --> 00:45:44,611
General Wang Yi is not to be trusted.

410
00:45:45,158 --> 00:45:49,658
Maybe not, but it's good
to have him on our side.

411
00:46:00,257 --> 00:46:03,635
How far will we go, King?

412
00:46:03,843 --> 00:46:08,343
We're almost in the mountain tribe's
domain. It's dangerous there.

413
00:46:10,684 --> 00:46:14,145
I heard they're cannibals.

414
00:46:14,354 --> 00:46:18,566
They massacred my ancestors around here.

415
00:46:18,775 --> 00:46:23,275
You're from the mountains!
That explains the outfit.

416
00:46:25,448 --> 00:46:29,660
Four hundred years ago,
the mountain tribe and Qin were allies.

417
00:46:29,869 --> 00:46:31,370
Qin and those barbarians?

418
00:46:31,579 --> 00:46:34,999
Because they trusted Duke Mu,
the ruler of Qin at that time.

419
00:46:37,836 --> 00:46:40,255
It's hot!

420
00:46:40,463 --> 00:46:43,048
Take that off, then.

421
00:46:43,258 --> 00:46:45,969
This is my combat gear.

422
00:46:47,095 --> 00:46:49,097
Not like it's armor.

423
00:46:49,306 --> 00:46:53,018
You think I'm lame? Look at yourself.

424
00:47:07,991 --> 00:47:09,867
The mountain tribe?

425
00:47:10,076 --> 00:47:13,996
No, assassins. Watch out--
they're poison darts.

426
00:47:16,458 --> 00:47:18,835
Ying Zheng!

427
00:47:19,044 --> 00:47:23,006
Your life is mine!

428
00:47:24,007 --> 00:47:28,507
That shorty would be nothing without darts!

429
00:47:35,518 --> 00:47:37,478
Fight like a man!

430
00:47:59,709 --> 00:48:00,960
You're fast!

431
00:48:01,169 --> 00:48:03,588
Ying Zheng!

432
00:48:14,724 --> 00:48:15,891
Xin!

433
00:48:29,656 --> 00:48:31,991
This guy's abnormal...!

434
00:48:46,673 --> 00:48:51,173
We have no chance if you
can't even handle him, Xin.

435
00:48:54,305 --> 00:48:56,473
I know!

436
00:49:02,981 --> 00:49:07,481
You're going to die!

437
00:49:10,864 --> 00:49:12,156
Stay!

438
00:49:22,959 --> 00:49:25,461
He had me scared...!

439
00:49:26,963 --> 00:49:29,131
No more!

440
00:49:53,615 --> 00:49:54,490
Ying Zheng!

441
00:49:54,699 --> 00:49:56,242
Stop there!

442
00:50:13,092 --> 00:50:14,843
He won!

443
00:50:38,952 --> 00:50:40,244
Xin!

444
00:50:57,762 --> 00:50:59,263
Xin.

445
00:51:06,854 --> 00:51:08,355
You came to.

446
00:51:23,788 --> 00:51:25,331
Where are we?

447
00:51:26,916 --> 00:51:30,502
An ancient summer resort.

448
00:51:30,712 --> 00:51:33,214
Ancient...?

449
00:51:33,423 --> 00:51:37,923
It was built 400 years ago as a meeting
place for Qin and the mountain tribe.

450
00:51:42,265 --> 00:51:44,475
It's well maintained.

451
00:51:48,313 --> 00:51:49,480
Hey...

452
00:51:50,690 --> 00:51:53,359
How did I get here?

453
00:51:53,568 --> 00:51:57,280
Kings don't often piggyback slaves.

454
00:51:57,488 --> 00:52:00,574
What? You carried me?

455
00:52:01,743 --> 00:52:06,243
Stay still. Diao extracted
the poison, but you're wounded.

456
00:52:07,165 --> 00:52:09,167
Poison...?

457
00:52:18,801 --> 00:52:21,136
Thanks, Diao.

458
00:52:25,308 --> 00:52:26,851
You're asleep!

459
00:52:38,738 --> 00:52:41,365
Can't you say something?

460
00:52:42,367 --> 00:52:45,995
When you're silent, you remind me of Piao.

461
00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:02,135
Piao often talked about you.

462
00:53:04,222 --> 00:53:07,767
That's when he was his happiest.

463
00:53:13,147 --> 00:53:17,647
I could tell that you two had
a bond stronger than siblings.

464
00:53:22,281 --> 00:53:26,781
Not like you and your back-stabbing brother.

465
00:53:27,829 --> 00:53:31,249
--That's messed up.
--You're awake!

466
00:53:31,457 --> 00:53:34,126
What's your brother like, Zheng?

467
00:53:34,335 --> 00:53:37,421
He and I have different mothers.

468
00:53:41,676 --> 00:53:43,761
My mother was a dancer.

469
00:53:43,970 --> 00:53:48,470
Cheng Jiao's mother had royal lineage.

470
00:53:49,016 --> 00:53:53,516
He disapproved of me because
I have commoner blood.

471
00:53:55,481 --> 00:53:57,441
So what?

472
00:53:57,650 --> 00:54:00,653
It's you who ascended to the throne.

473
00:54:00,862 --> 00:54:03,239
I was a puppet.

474
00:54:04,741 --> 00:54:09,241
My father was only king for three years
when he died, so I was king at 13.

475
00:54:10,788 --> 00:54:15,125
I was regarded as a child...

476
00:54:15,334 --> 00:54:18,211
...so I had no authority.

477
00:54:18,421 --> 00:54:20,548
Who did, then?

478
00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:29,219
Lú Buwei, who'd once been
a successful merchant.

479
00:54:30,558 --> 00:54:35,058
He was away fighting the Wei state
when Cheng Jiao revolted.

480
00:54:36,314 --> 00:54:40,814
My brother is backed by Chancellor Jie Shi.

481
00:54:43,529 --> 00:54:48,029
So Lú Buwei is on your side?

482
00:54:50,912 --> 00:54:54,081
Lord Changwen is the only one I trust.

483
00:54:54,290 --> 00:54:58,790
And I'm supposed to
rendezvous with him here.

484
00:55:22,485 --> 00:55:24,236
Look, Xin.

485
00:55:32,703 --> 00:55:33,954
It's the enemy!

486
00:55:36,207 --> 00:55:38,417
I'll take them all on.

487
00:55:38,626 --> 00:55:40,294
This is bad!

488
00:55:40,503 --> 00:55:41,670
The blow dart...

489
00:55:41,879 --> 00:55:43,380
I stole it.

490
00:55:46,175 --> 00:55:47,384
Zheng, get back!

491
00:56:00,147 --> 00:56:02,315
You're late.

492
00:56:02,525 --> 00:56:05,903
We fought off men who tailed us.

493
00:56:07,405 --> 00:56:09,073
Your retainers...

494
00:56:19,750 --> 00:56:22,544
Hey, you.

495
00:56:22,753 --> 00:56:24,880
Piao is dead.

496
00:56:30,219 --> 00:56:33,472
My escape plan was full of flaws.

497
00:56:33,681 --> 00:56:36,767
I apologize for my incompetence.

498
00:56:36,976 --> 00:56:41,476
Give the order, and I'll kill myself now.

499
00:56:42,690 --> 00:56:45,150
But now...

500
00:56:45,359 --> 00:56:47,819
...more than anything...

501
00:56:50,531 --> 00:56:53,450
I'm thankful that you're alive.

502
00:57:02,543 --> 00:57:04,127
You, too.

503
00:57:14,388 --> 00:57:18,888
Ying Zheng is as good as dead
without Lord Changwen.

504
00:57:19,185 --> 00:57:22,605
The time to strike is now, Your Highness.

505
00:57:22,813 --> 00:57:26,900
Our only remaining concern is Lú Buwei.

506
00:57:27,109 --> 00:57:30,821
I suppose you're prepared
for that prospect?

507
00:57:31,030 --> 00:57:32,072
Yes.

508
00:57:32,281 --> 00:57:36,781
I suggest you see it
for yourself, Your Highness.

509
00:58:02,728 --> 00:58:07,228
This army of 80,000 men
will defeat Lú Buwei.

510
00:58:13,906 --> 00:58:16,408
This is more like it.

511
00:58:27,837 --> 00:58:30,506
Dun! Step forward.

512
00:58:35,344 --> 00:58:36,553
Rise.

513
00:58:38,180 --> 00:58:40,182
Men!

514
00:58:40,391 --> 00:58:41,934
Look at him.

515
00:58:43,394 --> 00:58:47,731
He was born into a peasant family.

516
00:58:47,940 --> 00:58:52,440
His parents had to sell him
for lack of money.

517
00:58:52,820 --> 00:58:55,239
He's good with swords and a pen.

518
00:58:55,448 --> 00:58:59,948
So he climbed his way up
to a position serving me.

519
00:59:00,411 --> 00:59:04,911
He has a grand house and supports
the parents who sold him.

520
00:59:06,375 --> 00:59:08,460
Right, Dun?

521
00:59:08,669 --> 00:59:10,379
Yes!

522
00:59:11,714 --> 00:59:15,342
It's all due to His Highness' generosity--

523
00:59:21,724 --> 00:59:23,267
Lan Kai...

524
00:59:27,980 --> 00:59:32,480
I can't stand men like him!

525
00:59:34,987 --> 00:59:39,074
A peasant in fine clothes is still a peasant!

526
00:59:39,283 --> 00:59:43,783
Ying Zheng is the son of a lowly dancer.

527
00:59:44,580 --> 00:59:49,080
Only one of us has noble lineage.

528
00:59:49,794 --> 00:59:51,754
That's me.

529
00:59:51,962 --> 00:59:56,462
And you men are the sons of noble soldiers.

530
01:00:06,143 --> 01:00:10,643
This is delicious! I feel so alive!

531
01:00:11,023 --> 01:00:12,858
You cooked this?

532
01:00:13,067 --> 01:00:14,860
Who are you, anyway?

533
01:00:15,069 --> 01:00:18,614
I'm He Liao Diao from
the mountains. Call me Diao.

534
01:00:18,823 --> 01:00:20,407
Can I have more, Diao?

535
01:00:20,616 --> 01:00:22,117
Me, too!

536
01:00:31,961 --> 01:00:35,756
Now, then. Let's hear it...

537
01:00:40,970 --> 01:00:45,470
What happened in Xian yang
while I was in hiding?

538
01:00:50,354 --> 01:00:52,606
Your Majesty.

539
01:00:52,815 --> 01:00:57,315
On the night of your brother's coup...

540
01:00:57,570 --> 01:01:02,070
...we left Xian yang Palace
through the secret passageway.

541
01:01:03,993 --> 01:01:08,372
We took your double, Piao, with us.

542
01:01:08,581 --> 01:01:09,915
Piao...

543
01:01:10,124 --> 01:01:11,667
He was with you?

544
01:01:11,876 --> 01:01:15,963
Our escape seemed to go without a hitch...

545
01:01:17,256 --> 01:01:21,051
But we were pursued by
an unforeseen enemy.

546
01:01:21,260 --> 01:01:22,928
Unforeseen?

547
01:01:23,137 --> 01:01:24,680
Yes.

548
01:01:24,889 --> 01:01:28,893
General Wang Yi.

549
01:01:35,816 --> 01:01:40,316
I thought he had retired years ago...

550
01:01:40,696 --> 01:01:43,990
...but he suddenly appeared before us.

551
01:01:48,579 --> 01:01:53,079
I thought we were doomed.

552
01:01:53,626 --> 01:01:57,755
Just when it seemed hopeless...

553
01:01:57,963 --> 01:02:02,463
...Piao came out of hiding
and rode to the front.

554
01:02:04,762 --> 01:02:06,680
Piao...?

555
01:02:13,896 --> 01:02:16,815
He led our men, who were in despair,

556
01:02:17,024 --> 01:02:21,524
and boosted their morale as a king would.

557
01:02:23,489 --> 01:02:25,699
Don't give up!

558
01:02:25,908 --> 01:02:27,993
Defensive formation!

559
01:02:28,994 --> 01:02:31,329
Penetrate the enemy front!

560
01:02:37,628 --> 01:02:40,797
It was unbelievable.

561
01:02:41,006 --> 01:02:45,135
I'd heard he was just a peasant.

562
01:02:45,344 --> 01:02:49,723
But at that moment, Piao was a general.

563
01:02:57,189 --> 01:03:01,689
With a few words, he raised
the spirits of all the men.

564
01:03:22,339 --> 01:03:25,175
To lure the enemy away from us,

565
01:03:25,384 --> 01:03:29,513
Piao broke off and rode into the darkness.

566
01:03:29,722 --> 01:03:30,597
Alone? Why?

567
01:03:30,806 --> 01:03:33,099
He wanted to save us.

568
01:03:33,309 --> 01:03:36,061
Because His Majesty needed us.

569
01:04:09,345 --> 01:04:13,845
He rode off, diverting Wang Yi's army,
and wasn't seen again.

570
01:04:43,712 --> 01:04:48,212
Piao, I knew you were amazing!

571
01:04:52,971 --> 01:04:56,683
Hey, Zheng, now that
Lord Changwen is with us,

572
01:04:56,892 --> 01:05:00,478
let's get your palace back.

573
01:05:00,687 --> 01:05:03,564
--Behave!
--You're in the king's presence!

574
01:05:03,774 --> 01:05:05,066
Leave him.

575
01:05:05,275 --> 01:05:07,443
I forgive his manners.

576
01:05:10,447 --> 01:05:14,947
It won't be that easy, Xin.

577
01:05:16,703 --> 01:05:19,205
Someone bring me the map!

578
01:05:24,336 --> 01:05:28,757
We can't enter Xian yang,
because Cheng Jiao controls it.

579
01:05:28,966 --> 01:05:33,095
We can only rely on Lú Buwei.

580
01:05:33,303 --> 01:05:35,430
When he returns--

581
01:05:35,639 --> 01:05:37,682
No.

582
01:05:37,891 --> 01:05:39,767
He won't come.

583
01:05:39,977 --> 01:05:44,272
--Why not?
--Lú Buwei wants His Majesty dead

584
01:05:44,481 --> 01:05:47,609
and Cheng Jiao to become king.

585
01:05:47,818 --> 01:05:51,947
Then he'll accuse Cheng Jiao of treason

586
01:05:52,156 --> 01:05:55,409
and overthrow him.

587
01:05:55,617 --> 01:05:57,952
--No...!
--Yes.

588
01:05:58,162 --> 01:06:00,497
Lú Buwei wants to be king.

589
01:06:00,706 --> 01:06:02,541
Wait a minute!

590
01:06:02,749 --> 01:06:05,668
I thought Lú Buwei was on your side.

591
01:06:05,878 --> 01:06:10,378
For 500 years, all the powerful men
of Qin have sought to be king.

592
01:06:10,924 --> 01:06:15,053
We'll watch out for Chancellors
Lú Buwei and Jie Shi

593
01:06:15,262 --> 01:06:18,974
and find the right opportunity to go back.

594
01:06:19,183 --> 01:06:21,685
No. They'll divide the state if we wait.

595
01:06:22,978 --> 01:06:27,478
I must go back to Xian yang
to protect my people.

596
01:06:30,694 --> 01:06:33,279
But right now...

597
01:06:33,489 --> 01:06:37,618
...NO armies are on our side.

598
01:06:37,826 --> 01:06:41,079
Forget it, then! You can live here.

599
01:06:41,288 --> 01:06:43,081
Be quiet.

600
01:06:47,836 --> 01:06:49,754
You.

601
01:06:49,963 --> 01:06:50,755
What?

602
01:06:50,964 --> 01:06:54,092
Not you. That one.

603
01:06:54,301 --> 01:06:55,552
Yes?

604
01:06:55,761 --> 01:07:00,261
Did you say you lived in the mountains?

605
01:07:01,642 --> 01:07:04,269
Isn't his costume hilarious?

606
01:07:05,812 --> 01:07:07,313
That's it!

607
01:07:10,108 --> 01:07:12,610
There is an army!

608
01:07:12,819 --> 01:07:17,319
An army that can overpower
Lú Buwei and Jie Shi's armies!

609
01:07:20,077 --> 01:07:24,456
Yes, they've been on
my mind since we arrived.

610
01:07:26,458 --> 01:07:30,958
We may not be welcome,
but we must arrange a meeting...

611
01:07:33,173 --> 01:07:35,049
...with the mountain chieftain.

612
01:07:59,199 --> 01:08:01,576
Watch your step, Your Majesty.

613
01:08:05,664 --> 01:08:09,167
I think it's too risky.

614
01:08:09,376 --> 01:08:13,088
It was 400 years ago that we were allies.

615
01:08:13,297 --> 01:08:17,718
That's when Qin cut off diplomatic ties.

616
01:08:17,926 --> 01:08:20,261
I heard there were massacres.

617
01:08:20,470 --> 01:08:22,138
They must hate you!

618
01:08:22,347 --> 01:08:26,847
We have no choice, Bi.

619
01:08:27,144 --> 01:08:28,353
They'll attack us!

620
01:08:28,562 --> 01:08:33,062
No worries! If they do,
I'll kill every one of them!

621
01:08:55,255 --> 01:08:57,715
It's the real mountain tribe!

622
01:08:57,924 --> 01:08:59,008
Guard the king!

623
01:08:59,217 --> 01:09:00,426
Yes!

624
01:09:00,636 --> 01:09:01,845
Stay put.

625
01:09:09,311 --> 01:09:11,813
You want a piece of me?

626
01:09:12,022 --> 01:09:13,648
Don't!

627
01:09:29,206 --> 01:09:31,541
What did he say?

628
01:09:31,750 --> 01:09:36,250
"We gouge trespassers' eyes out
and push them off cliffs."

629
01:09:37,964 --> 01:09:39,882
Talk to him!

630
01:09:55,440 --> 01:09:57,191
What did you say?

631
01:09:57,401 --> 01:10:01,901
The truth. That the king of Qin
wants to meet the mountain chieftain.

632
01:10:04,324 --> 01:10:05,950
Don't!

633
01:10:06,159 --> 01:10:07,618
Stay put!

634
01:10:07,828 --> 01:10:10,330
They held off killing us!

635
01:10:15,502 --> 01:10:17,420
Let go!

636
01:10:17,629 --> 01:10:21,341
They'll let the chieftain decide our fate.

637
01:10:46,658 --> 01:10:50,119
Sneaky bastards!

638
01:10:50,328 --> 01:10:53,539
It's our chance to infiltrate them.

639
01:10:53,749 --> 01:10:56,418
Even if negotiations fail,

640
01:10:56,626 --> 01:11:01,005
we can probably overcome these barbarians.

641
01:11:01,214 --> 01:11:04,592
Yeah! Count me in on that!

642
01:11:04,801 --> 01:11:08,137
Hey, don't move around!

643
01:11:08,346 --> 01:11:10,514
--Xin!
--Look!

644
01:11:11,725 --> 01:11:13,268
What is it?

645
01:11:22,152 --> 01:11:24,445
What the hell...?!

646
01:11:56,603 --> 01:12:00,815
I am Ying Zheng, the 31st king of Qin.

647
01:12:02,484 --> 01:12:04,819
I'm the mountain chieftain.

648
01:12:05,028 --> 01:12:09,528
The name is Yang Duanhe.
What do you want?

649
01:12:10,242 --> 01:12:12,661
Your assistance.

650
01:12:12,869 --> 01:12:16,664
Surely not, King of Qin.

651
01:12:16,873 --> 01:12:20,167
We have old scores to settle.

652
01:12:20,377 --> 01:12:24,877
My ancestors and Duke Mu of Qin
were allies 400 years ago.

653
01:12:25,924 --> 01:12:30,303
They hoped to live in harmony
with you flatlanders

654
01:12:30,512 --> 01:12:34,724
and forge a brave new world together.

655
01:12:34,933 --> 01:12:38,353
But when Duke Mu passed away,

656
01:12:38,562 --> 01:12:43,062
your people betrayed us,
and the dream died.

657
01:12:44,734 --> 01:12:46,944
Thousands of our people were killed.

658
01:12:47,153 --> 01:12:51,653
The Qin people forced us
back into the mountains.

659
01:12:53,451 --> 01:12:57,951
The most fitting revenge is to behead you.

660
01:12:59,916 --> 01:13:04,416
I know our history. The fault is with us.

661
01:13:04,629 --> 01:13:09,129
As king of Qin, I apologize
for my ancestors' crimes.

662
01:13:19,603 --> 01:13:24,103
However, different ethnic groups
with their own beliefs and cultures

663
01:13:26,276 --> 01:13:30,776
can only coexist after blood has been shed.

664
01:13:32,115 --> 01:13:36,615
Years of discrimination and
resentment can't be erased.

665
01:13:38,663 --> 01:13:43,163
A look at history shows
how hard it is to overcome.

666
01:13:43,919 --> 01:13:47,797
Beheading me won't resolve our problems.

667
01:13:49,799 --> 01:13:54,299
The young king doesn't seem
to understand our pain.

668
01:13:55,096 --> 01:13:58,724
The pain of losing loved ones.

669
01:13:58,934 --> 01:14:03,021
Beheading your men will teach you.

670
01:14:08,026 --> 01:14:09,944
Hey, let go!

671
01:14:10,153 --> 01:14:11,195
Xin!

672
01:14:11,404 --> 01:14:14,281
Zheng, I'll take them on, okay?

673
01:14:14,491 --> 01:14:16,951
--Wait.
--Until I lose my head?

674
01:14:17,160 --> 01:14:20,788
This is unnecessary.

675
01:14:20,997 --> 01:14:24,125
I know that pain all too well.

676
01:14:27,045 --> 01:14:31,545
Hear me, Mountain Chieftain. When a king takes
up the sword motivated by hatred or grudges,

677
01:14:32,759 --> 01:14:35,845
his kingdom will perish.

678
01:14:36,054 --> 01:14:40,058
A king's sword should be wielded
to secure the lives of his people.

679
01:14:44,270 --> 01:14:48,770
Our two groups fight because we are divided.

680
01:14:50,360 --> 01:14:52,236
And the Middle Kingdom is the same:

681
01:14:52,445 --> 01:14:56,945
We are all "flatlanders," yet we have
been killing each other for 500 years.

682
01:14:58,034 --> 01:14:59,452
Your point is...?

683
01:14:59,661 --> 01:15:01,329
It's simple.

684
01:15:04,332 --> 01:15:08,832
We stop the wars by
getting rid of our borders.

685
01:15:10,338 --> 01:15:12,506
No borders?

686
01:15:12,716 --> 01:15:17,216
Your Majesty, if the seven states had
no borders, the wars would worsen.

687
01:15:20,015 --> 01:15:24,515
Are you saying...?

688
01:15:25,020 --> 01:15:28,231
Wait up! What are you talking about?!

689
01:15:28,440 --> 01:15:30,191
My goal.

690
01:15:30,400 --> 01:15:33,778
Your goal is getting your throne back!

691
01:15:33,987 --> 01:15:36,197
Isn't that why we're asking for help?!

692
01:15:36,406 --> 01:15:39,492
That is just the first step of my journey.

693
01:15:39,701 --> 01:15:41,703
Your journey?

694
01:15:44,247 --> 01:15:46,874
Yang Duanhe.

695
01:15:47,083 --> 01:15:49,585
Join me on a journey.

696
01:15:51,337 --> 01:15:54,214
We will have to blaze the trail
ourselves, and it will be bloody...

697
01:15:54,424 --> 01:15:57,510
...but there will be light at the end.

698
01:16:04,309 --> 01:16:06,936
He's lying!

699
01:16:08,271 --> 01:16:10,064
You can't fool us!

700
01:16:17,113 --> 01:16:19,031
Kill them!

701
01:16:19,240 --> 01:16:20,699
Oh, no!

702
01:16:27,957 --> 01:16:29,375
Xin!

703
01:16:43,098 --> 01:16:45,308
You'll be damned.

704
01:16:45,517 --> 01:16:47,936
You intrigue me, boy.

705
01:16:48,144 --> 01:16:50,646
What's your next move?

706
01:16:54,651 --> 01:16:57,612
I have no next move.

707
01:16:57,821 --> 01:17:01,491
Hey, you in the boss mask!

708
01:17:05,787 --> 01:17:09,373
I don't understand one word of your story,

709
01:17:09,582 --> 01:17:14,082
but this guy needs your help, so help him!

710
01:17:15,797 --> 01:17:18,174
How unintelligent...

711
01:17:18,383 --> 01:17:19,842
No hope now.

712
01:17:20,051 --> 01:17:24,551
Do him a favor and you
might get it back tenfold.

713
01:17:25,265 --> 01:17:29,060
In treasure and great food!

714
01:17:29,269 --> 01:17:31,062
Shut up, monkey!

715
01:17:31,271 --> 01:17:34,148
Our ancestors' resentment is ours.

716
01:17:34,357 --> 01:17:37,360
We won't forget their hardship.

717
01:17:43,533 --> 01:17:45,493
Shut up!

718
01:17:47,245 --> 01:17:51,745
You talk a big game, but what your ancestors
resented most was losing their dream!

719
01:17:53,126 --> 01:17:56,712
If you really care about your dead ancestors,

720
01:17:56,921 --> 01:18:00,507
make their dream come true!

721
01:18:12,562 --> 01:18:14,814
That wasn't bad.

722
01:18:19,944 --> 01:18:23,155
Yang Duanhe...

723
01:18:23,364 --> 01:18:27,493
I'm powerless right now,

724
01:18:27,702 --> 01:18:31,497
but my objective is not impossible.

725
01:18:33,124 --> 01:18:36,961
Let us revive the alliance of 400 years ago.

726
01:18:37,170 --> 01:18:39,505
I need your help.

727
01:18:41,549 --> 01:18:45,261
You know this is right.

728
01:18:45,470 --> 01:18:49,970
That's why you kept the
resort in good condition.

729
01:19:08,284 --> 01:19:12,784
King of Qin, tell me one thing.

730
01:19:14,582 --> 01:19:16,584
We are not gentle.

731
01:19:16,793 --> 01:19:21,293
If we joined you, would you mind
if we got blood on your throne?

732
01:19:25,927 --> 01:19:28,387
That's how it was stolen.

733
01:19:28,596 --> 01:19:31,056
I don't mind at all.

734
01:20:07,385 --> 01:20:09,053
A woman...!

735
01:20:10,763 --> 01:20:15,263
I, Yang Duanhe, welcome the
king of Qin as our closest ally.

736
01:20:16,978 --> 01:20:20,398
Assemble soldiers from all the mountains.

737
01:20:22,275 --> 01:20:24,151
Prepare for war!

738
01:20:54,724 --> 01:20:57,727
It worked, Zheng!

739
01:20:57,935 --> 01:21:00,187
Now what?

740
01:21:01,981 --> 01:21:03,816
I have a plan.

741
01:21:08,196 --> 01:21:11,657
At the center of the palace,

742
01:21:11,866 --> 01:21:14,577
there's an army of 80,000.

743
01:21:14,786 --> 01:21:15,787
There's...

744
01:21:15,995 --> 01:21:17,287
Thirty of us.

745
01:21:17,497 --> 01:21:19,916
I can mobilize 3,000 soldiers now.

746
01:21:20,124 --> 01:21:22,251
It's 3,030 against...

747
01:21:22,460 --> 01:21:23,919
...80,000!

748
01:21:24,128 --> 01:21:25,587
And so...

749
01:21:26,798 --> 01:21:28,674
Which is more?

750
01:21:42,980 --> 01:21:44,272
What's that?

751
01:21:53,741 --> 01:21:57,578
We've got trouble... big trouble!

752
01:21:57,787 --> 01:22:00,539
There are horses at Ancheng Gate

753
01:22:00,748 --> 01:22:03,834
carrying approximately 3,000 soldiers!

754
01:22:04,043 --> 01:22:05,544
What?

755
01:22:07,630 --> 01:22:08,881
First...

756
01:22:09,090 --> 01:22:11,634
...we'll dress as mountain men.

757
01:22:13,970 --> 01:22:18,470
The mountain tribe are mounted on horses!

758
01:22:18,808 --> 01:22:21,352
The mountain tribe?

759
01:22:24,605 --> 01:22:26,231
Do I have to?

760
01:22:26,441 --> 01:22:28,359
This is too weird!

761
01:22:28,568 --> 01:22:30,111
And you're not?

762
01:22:30,319 --> 01:22:32,446
This should do for you.

763
01:22:32,655 --> 01:22:36,283
Yeah, this is my combat gear, idiots.

764
01:22:38,578 --> 01:22:41,497
A messenger brought word.

765
01:22:41,706 --> 01:22:46,043
The mountain chieftain wishes
to revive the old alliance!

766
01:22:46,252 --> 01:22:49,421
What's this you say?

767
01:22:53,009 --> 01:22:57,509
Posing as guests, we'll be invited
through the outer gate.

768
01:22:57,722 --> 01:23:00,141
We won't even have to fight.

769
01:23:00,349 --> 01:23:02,267
Smart.

770
01:23:03,603 --> 01:23:08,103
In disguise, we might get in, but what about

771
01:23:08,357 --> 01:23:11,610
the 80,000 soldiers guarding the palace?

772
01:23:13,946 --> 01:23:15,614
The plan is...

773
01:23:38,971 --> 01:23:41,765
Will they really let us in?

774
01:23:41,974 --> 01:23:43,517
They will.

775
01:23:43,726 --> 01:23:48,226
Their army of 80,000 might
take on Lú Buwei's 200,000.

776
01:23:48,648 --> 01:23:53,148
With that kind of disadvantage,
they'll be desperate for help.

777
01:23:55,530 --> 01:24:00,030
We have hundreds of thousands
more soldiers in the mountains.

778
01:24:01,494 --> 01:24:04,788
It's an offer too good to refuse.

779
01:24:07,583 --> 01:24:10,544
Just what we need to fight Lú Buwei.

780
01:24:10,753 --> 01:24:15,253
But why do they suddenly want
to join forces after 400 years?

781
01:24:28,646 --> 01:24:29,855
The gate!

782
01:25:00,094 --> 01:25:04,594
I am Yang Duanhe, the mountain chieftain.

783
01:25:07,643 --> 01:25:12,143
Chieftain Yang Duanhe, please enter.

784
01:25:12,815 --> 01:25:17,315
The state of Qin welcomes you.

785
01:25:17,653 --> 01:25:19,196
It worked!

786
01:25:19,405 --> 01:25:20,697
Great!

787
01:25:20,906 --> 01:25:23,992
However! Not all of you can enter.

788
01:25:24,201 --> 01:25:28,371
Just the chieftain and 50 subjects.

789
01:25:28,581 --> 01:25:31,375
Fifty...!

790
01:25:31,584 --> 01:25:33,294
Very well.

791
01:25:33,502 --> 01:25:36,421
Fifty against 80,000?!

792
01:25:36,631 --> 01:25:39,759
Most aren't stationed in the throne room.

793
01:25:39,967 --> 01:25:42,552
We'll kill Cheng Jiao before they arrive.

794
01:25:42,762 --> 01:25:46,515
That's ten of us and 40 mountain tribesmen.

795
01:25:46,724 --> 01:25:47,683
Yes, sir.

796
01:25:47,892 --> 01:25:49,476
Wait here, Diao.

797
01:25:49,685 --> 01:25:51,269
No, I'm coming.

798
01:25:51,479 --> 01:25:53,397
Stay here!

799
01:25:53,606 --> 01:25:57,693
No. I'll stay with you and help the king.

800
01:25:57,902 --> 01:26:01,113
And get rich!

801
01:26:01,322 --> 01:26:02,781
Whatever.

802
01:26:05,201 --> 01:26:07,786
You want to exploit those monkeys?

803
01:26:07,995 --> 01:26:10,497
Yes.

804
01:26:10,706 --> 01:26:13,458
With the mountain tribe as allies,

805
01:26:13,668 --> 01:26:18,168
we'll have access to tens
of thousands more soldiers.

806
01:26:19,757 --> 01:26:24,257
Our objective is to defeat Lú Buwei.

807
01:26:25,054 --> 01:26:29,554
We can watch the monkeys fight Lú Buwei

808
01:26:30,267 --> 01:26:32,936
for our amusement.

809
01:26:36,732 --> 01:26:41,232
Your Highness. Yang Duanhe and 50 soldiers
have entered through the Red Turtle Gate.

810
01:27:01,674 --> 01:27:02,925
Halt!

811
01:27:04,593 --> 01:27:07,095
From here, it is the king's domain.

812
01:27:07,304 --> 01:27:11,099
Please leave your weapons here.

813
01:27:12,268 --> 01:27:16,313
My tribe was once Qin"s ally,

814
01:27:16,522 --> 01:27:20,526
but your people betrayed us.

815
01:27:20,735 --> 01:27:24,989
We trusted you, but we were deceived.

816
01:27:25,197 --> 01:27:29,697
Until we make a formal pact, we'll stay armed.

817
01:27:30,453 --> 01:27:34,953
If that's unacceptable,
I demand that you disarm, too.

818
01:27:49,221 --> 01:27:51,723
Very well.

819
01:27:51,932 --> 01:27:55,769
Remain armed until the alliance is restored.

820
01:28:01,484 --> 01:28:03,360
Are you sure?

821
01:28:04,862 --> 01:28:07,531
Get Wei Xing to stand by.

822
01:28:07,740 --> 01:28:11,034
Even if they attack us,

823
01:28:11,243 --> 01:28:14,162
what can 50 of them do?

824
01:28:26,634 --> 01:28:28,552
Yang Duanhe.

825
01:28:28,761 --> 01:28:31,722
I am truly grateful to you.

826
01:28:32,723 --> 01:28:35,350
I can't wait for a battle.

827
01:28:43,192 --> 01:28:47,487
Escape is possible through
a secret passageway.

828
01:28:47,696 --> 01:28:51,658
We used it when we left the palace.

829
01:28:51,867 --> 01:28:53,743
It is an underground tunnel

830
01:28:53,953 --> 01:28:57,665
connecting the throne room
and the Red Turtle Gate.

831
01:28:57,873 --> 01:29:00,834
Our war starts at that gate.

832
01:29:05,297 --> 01:29:06,506
Not yet.

833
01:29:06,715 --> 01:29:10,427
Only one man can start this battle.

834
01:29:13,305 --> 01:29:16,975
King Ying Zheng of Qin.

835
01:29:21,397 --> 01:29:22,398
Traitor!

836
01:29:44,128 --> 01:29:48,382
Close the gate! Now!

837
01:29:50,634 --> 01:29:51,509
What's that?

838
01:29:51,719 --> 01:29:52,928
What is it?

839
01:30:00,936 --> 01:30:03,396
Break up as planned.

840
01:30:03,606 --> 01:30:07,192
Ten of you go through the
passageway to the throne room.

841
01:30:07,401 --> 01:30:10,904
The rest of us will be your decoys.

842
01:30:11,113 --> 01:30:12,531
Xin, let's go.

843
01:30:12,740 --> 01:30:16,076
--The king's a decoy!
--The best there is.

844
01:30:16,285 --> 01:30:20,080
Our fate depends on you, Xin!

845
01:30:20,289 --> 01:30:22,916
Leave it to me, old man.

846
01:30:25,336 --> 01:30:27,588
Zheng.

847
01:30:27,796 --> 01:30:30,215
See you later.

848
01:30:30,424 --> 01:30:31,758
Yes.

849
01:30:33,844 --> 01:30:35,971
Come on, Diao.

850
01:30:37,264 --> 01:30:39,683
Tajifu and Ba Jio!

851
01:31:10,714 --> 01:31:12,924
Ying Zheng!

852
01:31:13,133 --> 01:31:16,719
Did you enjoy your moment of glory?

853
01:31:16,929 --> 01:31:19,139
Lord Changwen.

854
01:31:19,348 --> 01:31:23,560
Wang Yi didn't behead him. It was a trick.

855
01:31:23,769 --> 01:31:26,688
Behead Ying Zheng!

856
01:31:33,612 --> 01:31:34,988
Fire!

857
01:31:51,505 --> 01:31:54,841
Wei Xing, destroy them!

858
01:32:04,601 --> 01:32:05,476
Oh, no!

859
01:32:05,686 --> 01:32:07,312
They expected us.

860
01:32:15,946 --> 01:32:18,698
I knew you'd come this way.

861
01:32:19,783 --> 01:32:22,494
The plot of peasants!

862
01:32:23,746 --> 01:32:25,622
General Zuo Ci!

863
01:32:25,831 --> 01:32:26,832
A general?

864
01:32:27,041 --> 01:32:29,418
A former general.

865
01:32:31,420 --> 01:32:33,922
No Ying Zheng, huh?

866
01:32:36,925 --> 01:32:38,009
Stop!

867
01:32:57,029 --> 01:32:59,239
Kill them all.

868
01:32:59,448 --> 01:33:00,991
Get back here!

869
01:33:04,411 --> 01:33:05,912
Guess it's time!

870
01:33:16,507 --> 01:33:17,883
Let's fall back and regroup.

871
01:33:18,092 --> 01:33:19,468
No.

872
01:33:19,676 --> 01:33:20,968
We'll stay.

873
01:33:21,178 --> 01:33:22,012
Yang Duanhe.

874
01:33:22,221 --> 01:33:25,432
But they'll wipe us out!

875
01:33:25,641 --> 01:33:28,560
Arrows don't scare us!

876
01:33:37,402 --> 01:33:39,487
We'll follow the mountain tribe.

877
01:33:39,696 --> 01:33:41,030
What?!

878
01:33:50,249 --> 01:33:53,043
Stupid monkeys...

879
01:33:53,252 --> 01:33:56,171
Release all arrows when I say!

880
01:33:57,339 --> 01:33:58,340
Fire!

881
01:34:15,149 --> 01:34:17,442
They're not dead!

882
01:34:27,452 --> 01:34:29,120
They're useless!

883
01:34:45,470 --> 01:34:48,347
Get the ones in the front!

884
01:35:02,654 --> 01:35:04,572
Bring in more soldiers.

885
01:35:04,781 --> 01:35:06,783
Chancellor, to the keep.

886
01:35:06,992 --> 01:35:10,495
If I retreat before Ying Zheng is beheaded,

887
01:35:10,704 --> 01:35:15,204
His Highness Cheng Jiao won't like it.

888
01:35:47,407 --> 01:35:49,075
I got him...!

889
01:36:29,449 --> 01:36:32,743
Across the court is the throne room!

890
01:36:44,923 --> 01:36:46,174
Advance!

891
01:37:11,742 --> 01:37:15,120
He's delivered his own head to me!

892
01:37:15,329 --> 01:37:17,914
Idiot!

893
01:37:18,123 --> 01:37:20,208
It's over.

894
01:37:21,418 --> 01:37:24,379
Qin is my state now.

895
01:37:52,240 --> 01:37:54,158
Who's that?

896
01:37:56,161 --> 01:37:58,872
That's Lan Kai the executioner!

897
01:39:08,191 --> 01:39:10,985
Xin, hurry up!

898
01:39:17,951 --> 01:39:20,620
You can't win! Just run!

899
01:39:38,054 --> 01:39:39,430
Ba Jio!

900
01:40:57,801 --> 01:41:00,929
Having Ying Zheng turn up

901
01:41:01,137 --> 01:41:05,637
serves our purpose just fine.

902
01:41:05,934 --> 01:41:08,686
If Ying Zheng dies in full view,

903
01:41:08,895 --> 01:41:11,314
His Highness will be king in the public eye.

904
01:41:11,523 --> 01:41:14,567
His armies will have a million men!

905
01:41:14,776 --> 01:41:18,112
And we'll defeat that cocky Li Buwei.

906
01:41:18,321 --> 01:41:22,821
Finally we'll have the power we once had.

907
01:41:35,964 --> 01:41:38,049
You're history, villains!

908
01:41:49,311 --> 01:41:52,188
So you're Cheng Jiao?

909
01:41:54,649 --> 01:41:56,442
I sentence you to death.

910
01:41:58,570 --> 01:42:03,070
For being scum with the
temerity to speak to royalty.

911
01:42:03,700 --> 01:42:07,537
For breathing the same air as me.

912
01:42:07,746 --> 01:42:10,832
Yeah, that's bullshit.

913
01:42:11,041 --> 01:42:14,335
You just proved something, though.

914
01:42:14,544 --> 01:42:17,046
Zheng is the real king!

915
01:42:19,132 --> 01:42:21,050
Not you.

916
01:42:24,638 --> 01:42:28,266
Zuo Ci, squash these bugs.

917
01:42:37,776 --> 01:42:39,527
Oh, him!

918
01:42:39,736 --> 01:42:42,530
You said he was a general, Bi?

919
01:42:42,739 --> 01:42:46,909
Zuo Ci was known for being
an exceptional general.

920
01:42:47,118 --> 01:42:49,829
That's what you want to be!

921
01:42:50,038 --> 01:42:52,832
How come he's not leading armies?

922
01:42:53,041 --> 01:42:57,170
He was discharged for his cruel methods.

923
01:42:57,379 --> 01:43:00,090
Now he's a mercenary for hire.

924
01:43:00,298 --> 01:43:03,509
Oh, so he's an asshole!

925
01:43:38,712 --> 01:43:41,005
Hey, asshole!

926
01:43:41,214 --> 01:43:43,841
You don't deserve to be a general!

927
01:43:44,050 --> 01:43:48,550
Yeah? What's a kid know about warfare?

928
01:43:55,395 --> 01:43:57,647
I'll show you.

929
01:44:18,084 --> 01:44:20,294
There's no point resisting!

930
01:44:27,802 --> 01:44:29,470
Oh, no...

931
01:44:36,936 --> 01:44:38,354
King!

932
01:44:43,234 --> 01:44:45,194
Accept your fate!

933
01:45:01,294 --> 01:45:02,545
Xin!

934
01:45:03,755 --> 01:45:07,884
I won't be defeated by this asshole...

935
01:45:14,474 --> 01:45:16,476
Keep your spirits up!

936
01:45:19,145 --> 01:45:21,355
Victory is ours!

937
01:45:21,564 --> 01:45:24,567
The assault group will succeed.

938
01:45:24,776 --> 01:45:27,612
All we need to do is hold out here!

939
01:45:34,077 --> 01:45:36,037
Even if your sword breaks!

940
01:45:36,246 --> 01:45:39,999
Even if you bleed, even if you
lose an arm, you hold out!

941
01:45:42,627 --> 01:45:46,172
Hold out, and victory is ours!

942
01:45:46,381 --> 01:45:50,635
Your Majesty!

943
01:46:35,346 --> 01:46:37,473
Bi, you idiot!

944
01:46:51,237 --> 01:46:54,406
Bi!

945
01:46:58,912 --> 01:47:00,204
Bi!

946
01:47:14,636 --> 01:47:19,136
Well? Weren't you going
to become a general, boy?

947
01:47:30,944 --> 01:47:32,320
Xin!

948
01:47:34,864 --> 01:47:38,033
Keep dreaming, kid.

949
01:47:42,372 --> 01:47:44,749
Dreams are bullshit.

950
01:47:44,958 --> 01:47:47,710
I've seen many men like you.

951
01:47:52,840 --> 01:47:56,552
Dreams aren't for the battlefront.

952
01:47:56,761 --> 01:48:00,473
A man who goes on about dreams...

953
01:48:00,682 --> 01:48:03,559
...will die first.

954
01:48:14,654 --> 01:48:17,323
That's wrong...

955
01:48:24,163 --> 01:48:26,832
That's wrong, ain't it?

956
01:48:30,378 --> 01:48:32,421
Piao.

957
01:48:36,050 --> 01:48:38,385
Xin, get up!

958
01:48:39,595 --> 01:48:43,724
You'll be the greatest general on earth!

959
01:48:43,933 --> 01:48:45,726
Xin!

960
01:48:55,945 --> 01:48:59,782
Once a slave, always a slave.

961
01:48:59,991 --> 01:49:02,576
Only the sword can free us.

962
01:49:02,785 --> 01:49:04,369
Yeah.

963
01:49:05,371 --> 01:49:08,499
We'll be the greatest generals on earth!

964
01:49:08,708 --> 01:49:09,834
Yeah!

965
01:49:18,301 --> 01:49:20,553
Piao...

966
01:49:35,359 --> 01:49:37,652
Your dream's all over.

967
01:49:37,862 --> 01:49:39,530
No!

968
01:50:08,976 --> 01:50:12,187
What's wrong with dreams?

969
01:50:19,403 --> 01:50:23,532
Because you dream,

970
01:50:23,741 --> 01:50:26,744
you get back on your feet.

971
01:50:35,461 --> 01:50:39,961
Because you dream,

972
01:50:40,216 --> 01:50:42,509
you go forward.

973
01:50:45,680 --> 01:50:47,682
Because you dream...

974
01:50:50,393 --> 01:50:53,562
...you're strong.

975
01:51:01,279 --> 01:51:03,823
Because you dream...

976
01:51:12,248 --> 01:51:14,500
Bastard...

977
01:53:04,652 --> 01:53:06,445
Your Highness...?

978
01:53:19,583 --> 01:53:24,083
Your Highness, what are you
doing here by yourself?

979
01:53:24,672 --> 01:53:28,717
Jie is dead, Si Shi.

980
01:53:30,052 --> 01:53:31,678
What?

981
01:53:37,893 --> 01:53:40,520
Where are you going?!

982
01:53:40,730 --> 01:53:43,858
Deserters will be executed!

983
01:53:48,612 --> 01:53:52,032
Do something, Jie!

984
01:53:54,660 --> 01:53:55,911
No, you don't.

985
01:53:59,749 --> 01:54:04,249
You brat...

986
01:54:04,503 --> 01:54:08,715
I am Lord Jie Shi,

987
01:54:08,924 --> 01:54:13,424
chancellor of the great state of Qin!

988
01:54:16,515 --> 01:54:17,766
Diao!

989
01:54:17,975 --> 01:54:19,685
Diao!

990
01:54:32,073 --> 01:54:34,033
Diao!

991
01:54:34,241 --> 01:54:35,784
Diao!

992
01:54:52,218 --> 01:54:55,846
Told you! This is my combat gear.

993
01:55:03,813 --> 01:55:07,817
Come on. Zheng is expecting us.

994
01:55:20,830 --> 01:55:22,665
Sorry for the wait.

995
01:55:29,088 --> 01:55:31,090
It's about time!

996
01:55:46,397 --> 01:55:49,733
How dare you, Ying Zheng...

997
01:55:49,942 --> 01:55:52,861
Someone go and kill him!

998
01:56:09,962 --> 01:56:14,462
Our sibling issues are for us to deal with.

999
01:56:15,092 --> 01:56:17,636
Sibling...?

1000
01:56:17,845 --> 01:56:22,345
You're a commoner's son. We're not brothers!

1001
01:56:28,689 --> 01:56:33,026
My blood! The blood of a king!

1002
01:56:34,028 --> 01:56:35,863
What's a little blood?

1003
01:56:36,071 --> 01:56:40,571
Our feud caused a lot more
pain and bloodshed.

1004
01:56:41,035 --> 01:56:45,535
Your behavior is inexcusable, you know!

1005
01:56:48,918 --> 01:56:51,211
Cheng Jiao.

1006
01:56:51,420 --> 01:56:54,089
You need to learn that pain.

1007
01:57:44,974 --> 01:57:49,144
You lost. There's no point killing you.

1008
01:57:53,983 --> 01:57:57,569
We'll all be beheaded for treason...

1009
01:58:01,073 --> 01:58:04,326
...unless we kill Ying Zheng and his people!

1010
01:58:06,370 --> 01:58:09,706
That's the only way we'll survive.

1011
01:58:11,584 --> 01:58:16,084
You agree with me, don't you?

1012
01:58:56,045 --> 01:58:57,838
Wang Yi!

1013
01:59:00,174 --> 01:59:01,967
General Wang Yi...

1014
01:59:04,887 --> 01:59:06,805
General!

1015
01:59:07,014 --> 01:59:09,850
Let us behead Ying Zheng together!

1016
01:59:14,313 --> 01:59:17,524
The greatest general on earth...

1017
01:59:26,617 --> 01:59:30,954
Stop, Wang Yi. What do you want?

1018
01:59:31,163 --> 01:59:35,663
I don't fancy playing with you
just now, Lord Changwen.

1019
01:59:36,585 --> 01:59:41,085
I've come a long way to have
words with the young king.

1020
01:59:49,390 --> 01:59:51,934
General.

1021
01:59:52,142 --> 01:59:54,435
I have a question for you.

1022
01:59:56,271 --> 02:00:00,771
Why does a great man like you
involve himself in our family feud?

1023
02:00:02,653 --> 02:00:05,155
Because it's foolish.

1024
02:00:06,824 --> 02:00:09,201
Your Majesty, if I may...

1025
02:00:09,410 --> 02:00:13,455
Wars are not to be fought at home.

1026
02:00:13,664 --> 02:00:16,500
They are to be fought out in the world!

1027
02:00:17,876 --> 02:00:22,376
Now, Your Majesty... I have
a question for you in return.

1028
02:00:26,135 --> 02:00:28,846
It's about your dream.

1029
02:00:32,307 --> 02:00:36,807
Now that the throne's yours again,
what do you want?

1030
02:00:44,069 --> 02:00:48,569
What kind of king do you aspire to be?

1031
02:00:50,784 --> 02:00:54,245
Think well before you answer.

1032
02:00:54,455 --> 02:00:57,040
You may be king,

1033
02:00:57,249 --> 02:01:01,253
but my lance won't tolerate
an unworthy answer.

1034
02:01:02,713 --> 02:01:07,213
My aim is yours: the world.

1035
02:01:08,635 --> 02:01:11,804
As the first step, I made an alliance with

1036
02:01:12,014 --> 02:01:15,767
the chieftain who shares my dream.

1037
02:01:18,562 --> 02:01:20,313
Which is...?

1038
02:01:23,609 --> 02:01:28,109
I aim to rule a unified China.

1039
02:01:35,245 --> 02:01:38,164
You would make China one?

1040
02:01:39,917 --> 02:01:44,417
Do you think any of the other states
will agree with your idea?

1041
02:01:46,131 --> 02:01:50,631
If they don't, I'll have to use force.

1042
02:01:52,012 --> 02:01:55,390
Historians will call you a tyrant.

1043
02:01:55,599 --> 02:01:56,850
Let them.

1044
02:01:57,059 --> 02:02:01,104
Your path will do the opposite
of preserving your people's lives.

1045
02:02:01,313 --> 02:02:02,731
No.

1046
02:02:02,940 --> 02:02:07,440
Five hundred years of war may
lead to 500 more years of war.

1047
02:02:09,321 --> 02:02:13,575
I take up my sword to prevent
those centuries of deaths.

1048
02:02:17,579 --> 02:02:19,330
I will be...

1049
02:02:24,127 --> 02:02:27,380
...the first emperor to
unify the Middle Kingdom.

1050
02:03:04,126 --> 02:03:05,836
Teng.

1051
02:03:06,044 --> 02:03:07,628
Yes, Lord.

1052
02:03:10,883 --> 02:03:14,928
The battle is over. I suggest
Wei Xing and his men surrender.

1053
02:03:15,137 --> 02:03:16,805
Nonsense!

1054
02:03:17,890 --> 02:03:20,809
Kill Wang Yi and Ying Zheng!

1055
02:03:57,346 --> 02:04:00,474
So this is Wang Yi in action.

1056
02:04:00,682 --> 02:04:03,142
Who would...?

1057
02:04:03,352 --> 02:04:07,852
Who would follow you and your delusion?

1058
02:04:33,423 --> 02:04:36,551
I'd follow him!

1059
02:04:42,057 --> 02:04:44,059
Lord Changwen.

1060
02:04:46,979 --> 02:04:51,479
I'm beginning to understand
what you fight for.

1061
02:04:55,737 --> 02:04:58,573
Tell my men...

1062
02:04:58,782 --> 02:05:00,992
...to pull out.

1063
02:05:04,579 --> 02:05:06,789
My name is...

1064
02:05:06,999 --> 02:05:09,292
. Xin.

1065
02:05:09,501 --> 02:05:11,085
Remember it.

1066
02:05:12,504 --> 02:05:14,714
Because one day,

1067
02:05:14,923 --> 02:05:18,301
I'll be the greatest general on earth.

1068
02:05:27,519 --> 02:05:32,019
Perhaps this is the start
of an exciting new age.

1069
02:05:35,360 --> 02:05:37,487
Xin, my boy!

1070
02:05:40,824 --> 02:05:44,577
I'll see you again in a real war.

1071
02:06:04,139 --> 02:06:08,639
Let's not shed more blood.
Surrender and you'll live.

1072
02:06:11,480 --> 02:06:15,980
You heard him! Disarm and surrender!

1073
02:06:16,902 --> 02:06:21,402
We won this war!

1074
02:06:42,260 --> 02:06:43,552
Xin!

1075
02:07:05,826 --> 02:07:07,994
Xin.

1076
02:07:08,203 --> 02:07:10,955
We're headed for the same place!

1077
02:07:14,000 --> 02:07:16,544
Just wait, Piao!

1078
02:08:00,881 --> 02:08:05,381
No civilians died, despite
the scale of the uprising.

1079
02:08:07,220 --> 02:08:11,720
Wang Yi stationed his army
nearby to protect civilians.

1080
02:08:13,727 --> 02:08:15,812
Also...

1081
02:08:16,021 --> 02:08:20,521
He tricked Cheng Jiao by pretending
he had my head, stole my estate...

1082
02:08:25,280 --> 02:08:29,780
...and therefore saved the lives
of my family and retainers.

1083
02:08:30,368 --> 02:08:32,870
Wang Yi did that?

1084
02:08:33,079 --> 02:08:36,207
Everyone is a pawn...

1085
02:08:37,834 --> 02:08:40,795
...on his chessboard.

1086
02:09:00,023 --> 02:09:03,276
Hey, King. You remember our promise?

1087
02:09:03,485 --> 02:09:06,988
Yes. Thank you for accompanying me.

1088
02:09:09,032 --> 02:09:11,034
All this is yours again.

1089
02:09:11,243 --> 02:09:13,954
My journey has only begun.

1090
02:09:16,748 --> 02:09:21,248
Zheng. I'll fight in a war.

1091
02:09:22,921 --> 02:09:24,756
Xin...

1092
02:09:25,882 --> 02:09:30,382
With each battle I win, I'll rise.

1093
02:09:30,971 --> 02:09:32,889
To be a great general?

1094
02:09:33,098 --> 02:09:36,601
Yes. I'll be the greatest general on earth,

1095
02:09:36,810 --> 02:09:39,729
and make you the "emperor of China."

1096
02:09:39,938 --> 02:09:41,439
Don't be cocky.

1097
02:09:56,037 --> 02:10:00,249
Let's do it, Zheng.

1098
02:10:00,458 --> 02:10:04,920
No one has unified our world, but we will!
