hang in there.

Okay.

Shen Zhi.

Father.

Father!

-General. -Father.

Don't go into the enemy's area! We should go!

Go!

No, I want to save my father.

General.

Conserve the troops.

We can only save the general if we stay alive.

Just go! Don't bother me.

Go, general!

We can only save the general if we stay alive.

Follow my order.

Go!

Stop them!

Go! Go!

Quick!

Brother.

Why are you hurt?

I'm fine.

Where's father?

Why is he not with you?

Father was taken away by Wei army.

What?

What...

What should we do now?

Let's go to King Peng Cheng first.

Okay.

Commanding General's Office

Your Highness.

I feel ashamed.

Don't talk about this anymore.

What happened?

We were attacked by Wei army

on our way back to Matou.

In order to conserve troops,

my father ordered us not to go after them.

I'll go and save my father.

Don't be impulsive.

Your father will be fine for now.

Wei army will not harm General Shen.

How can I wait?

My father is in danger,

yet I'm do nothing.

That is Wei army camp.

Have you thought about the consequences?

What if you...

Fourth Brother,

you know our family

finally reunited after all the hardship,

and you know what my family

means to me.

Heading there,

no matter how dangerous it is,

no matter how slim the chances,

I have to try.

You are the commander-in-chief,

you have many consideration,

but I

too have the responsibility

as a daughter.

Lige.

Stop persuading me.

I have to save father.

Xu Zhan.

Yes!

Watch Lige,

never let her out of the city.

Yes.

Senior.

Kong Cheng, bring along

all the weapons.

Lige.

What is it?

I've heard about General Shen.

Are you here to stop me?

Lige.

I don't want you to walk into danger,

but I know you will still go.

Since you take me as your senior,

then don't do everything

on your own.

Don't you forget

I'm also your family.

Senior, there is also me.

Let's not delay anymore.

Take your weapon.

Okay.

Commanding General's Office

Your Highness.

I seek permission to go on a battle.

I am willing to go into Wei army camp

to rescue General Shen.

I seek permission to go on a battle.

Your Highness.

General Shen have worked hard,

Your Highness can't just leave him.

If the soldiers got disappointed,

how will they face the fights in the future?

Your Highness.

I seek permission to go on a battle.

I am willing to go into Wei army camp

to rescue General Shen.

Your Highness.

Zijin.

In this journey retreating southwards,

although we're with the people

and there are also soldiers protecting along the way,

we still have to be careful

and be aware of the situation around us.

Zijin.

Keep this dagger.

It's especially sharp.

Be very careful when using it.

General.

Come in.

General.

Li Chengxun together with the lieutenant generals

are in the military hall

seeking for permission to save General Shen.

I'll go and have a look.

Commanding General's Office

General Lee.

Quick, greet the major general.

Major general.

Major general.

These are the specially selected warriors

from my camp.

They are willing

to follow me to raid Wei army camp at late night

to take the head of Jingsheng,

rescue the senior general,

and to cut off Wei army’s threat.

Please ask His Highness for permission.

I understand

your intentions,

but I cannot promise this.

Major General...

Heaven and Earth is the witness

of your loyalty and sincerity.

But now

we have to put military affairs first

and leave personal affairs aside.

It's easy to lose soldiers,

but it's difficult to get a good general.

In order to resist Wei army,

we still need the concerted efforts of all of all the kings.

I think

this is also my father's wish.

Only when we succesfully defend Matou,

we get to defend Jian Kang City,

and subsequently Song.

Major general.

We will surely fight hard

to defend Matou.

We live and die with Matou.

But still we must save the senior general.

My father was captured by Wei army

right in front of my eyes.

My heart surely hurts.

My father finally put his sword down

just to

let us preserve our forces

and focus on the big picture.

If the situation of Matou is affected

because of him alone,

my father will feel guilty for the rest of his life.

Would you want to see that?

Would you want to see that?

Commanding General's Office

You're back.

General Lee and the rest have left?

You must have

really wanted to save your father too.

As children,

how could we face

this kind of situation?

But as General Shen,

he definitely wouldn't want the war delayed

because of him.

Am I right?

Cheer up.

Your father will come back

if we win this battle.

Zijin.

I will win this battle.

For sure.

I'm all good now.

Quick, pack up.

We have to continue the journey tomorrow morning.

Zijin.

Why did you

put all the things back?

Don't send me away, okay?

The battle of Ma Taou is inevitable.

All I want is just to be with you.

Even if Wei army breaks into city,

wherever you are,

I want to be there.

Zijin.

On the battlefield, under the swaying sword,

as long as you remember

I'm waiting for you every day,

you will surely return safely,

right?

Promise me, okay?

I beg you.

I promise you.

Run Si Store

Let me out.

Move aside!

Fourth Brother.

I told you to calm down.

I will not leave General Shen behind.

If you act rashly now,

you'll fall into Wei army's trap.

Lige,

I am worried about General Shen too,

but we can't mess things up.

I understand.

I will know what to do.

I will not ruin your plan.

But, he is my father,

I have to save him

even if I have to sacrifice my life.

Your Highness.

We all know,

Wei army wants to use General Shen

to threaten Suiyuan army,

so they won't hurt him.

But you also have to know

war is ever-changing.

Fourth Brother,

forgive me this one time

for not listening to your advice.

If I can't come back this time,

I hope you'll understand.

Stop Concubine Li.

Never let Concubine Li out of the city.

Lige.

Father was caught

because he tried to save us.

He has repeatedly told us

not to save him.

You'll just die in vain

if you go there rashly.

This will only

disappoint father.

Do you think

this what father wants to see?

I know,

with our current strength in Matou,

we can't fight Wei army head on

to save father.

But...

Yes,

this is what King Peng Cheng meant by

Wei army's tactic to lure the enemy.

Lige,

this is a battlefield.

He is our father,

but he is also

General Zhenbei of the North.

This is a military order.

No matter what happen to father,

that's a mission of a soldier.

Do you understand?

Commanding General's Office

Lige,

that's your father,

which then is also my father.

I'm as worried

and I want to save him too.

But now we are at war.

With the current strength of Matou,

if we're not careful,

not only we can't save your father,

the people from the north

will also be trampled

by Wei army.

I know.

I'm too impatient.

I was wrong.

I'm sorry.

I don't blame you.

this family love did not come easy,

but don't worry,

I will definitely save father.

Your Highness.

Your Highness,

there's a secret report from King Jing Ling.

Huo Yun led reinforcements to Matou,

will arrive in three days.

Summon General Li to discuss matters with the adjutants.

Yes.

Reinforcement has arrived.

I will find a way

to save your father.

Our father.

I'll listen to you.

I can promise to not save father first,

but you too have to

promise me one thing.

What else do you want?

I want to join in the discussion,

I want to fight.

You...

Don't say no.

Peng Cheng

Major.

Peng Cheng's defense capabilities have been greatly improved.

Good.

It's just that...

What is it?

Don't hesitate.

Major,

are we really

not going to save General Shen?

I'm really worried.

I am his son,

can I not worry?

But our duty

is to guard Peng Cheng,

to protect the people of Peng Cheng.

We cannot defy military order.

Yes.

Report!

Major, there's a letter from Matou.

Bring the elite, sneak attack Wei army's granary

King Peng Cheng ordered us to attack Wei army

and burn its granary.

Assemble the elites immediately

and follow me!

Yes!

This is great!

Let's go now

and burn

all their food!

We don't even get enough of food,

how do we fight?

True.

One meal in three days,

what's the meaning of becoming a soldier?

How much food is left?

Not much.

The bit of food we seized

is not enough to supply the whole army.

The soldiers

are now only getting food every three days.

From today onwards,

I will also get food once every three days.

General.

If this battle drags on,

it will be unfavorable to us.

We must find a way

to finish off this quick.

May be this

will all depend on Shen Tingzhang.

Tell us,

how many troops are there

in Matou City?

Your death is near,

there is no need to play the hero.

I'll kill you now if you don't tell us.

-Tell us! -Stop!

Don't be rude.

Leave.

In the fifth year of Tianxing,

in the north of Wei River,

you led thirty thousand soldiers

and defeated my one hundred thousand army.

You killed my marshal, Tu Hun Er.

The late emperor failed

and died of anger.

The eighth year of Taichang,

I wanted to avenge the late emperor,

I led troops southwards.

And it was you again

who set an ambush.

Of my 200,000 troops,

only thousands survived.

General Shen's fame

is well-known in the North.

Now I get to see you,

you're indeed courageous.

You are loyal and devoted,

but many times framed by scroundrel.

We have always respected you

and this really anger us.

My emperor is always thirst for wise men,

you can consider serving another wise master,

devote yourself to Wei.

You don't have to waste your breath.

I am born in Song and I will die as a Song army.

I am loyal towards Song and will never betray it.

You may think it through

before giving me the answer.

The future is bright,

why would you cut your own throat?

I don't have long to live,

I don't fear death.

Capturing me alone

do not pose any threat.

You are the one

who should think this through.

After the last battle,

Wei army

has lost half its strength.

Now there is insufficient food and forage,

you better retreat o the Yellow River quickly!

General Shen is indeed experienced and vicious.

Even at time like this

you do not forget to play with our mind.

Come!

Just let him

get exposed in the sun like this.

Never let him down

without my order.

Yes!

Sub by iQiyi & Ripped by skysoultan ♔ Follow @skysoultan on Instagram ♔

Major, that's the general.

Let's save the general.

Our aim

is to burn the granary.

Fire!

Put out the fire!

Quick! Quick!

Come here, quick!

Quick!

Put out the fire! Quick!

Hurry up!

Put out the fire!

Quick!

Retreat!

Major.

I said, retreat!

I got the water!

Quick!

Over here!

Fast

Get water!

Father!

Quick!

I'm sorry.

I'm an unfilial son.

But I know I did nothing wrong.

I am a soldier.

You'll be raiding Wei army,

why don't you let Shen Zhi go with you?

His injury has not healed.

It's okay.

I fight as good as him,

and I'm better

at sneak attacks.

I'm leaving now.

I am still worried.

My father said,

we, the Shen family has been good generals for generations.

Since I've entered the north,

I am now a member of the army.

It is our duty

to guard the North.

You...

Should you are a man,

you would have done great things.

Instead of accompanying you to study at night,

I would rather fight with you.

I sent Shen Feng

and you

to raid Wei army's granary,

is to let Wei army know

our reinforcements have arrived

and that they won't be able to challenge us

because they don’t have enough food.

And thus force them to use your father as a bargaining chip

to negotiate with us.

So we can save my father

during the negotiation.

This is great!

Thank you, Fourth Brother.

Matou City

Hide yourself, stay calm!

Concubine Li, you...

Block the valley entrance, wipe out the Wei army.

Concubine Li, don't act rashly.

I've done detailed research

on the topography of Hulukou,

you just need to block the entrance of the valley

in order to wipe out Wei army vanguard camp.

But...

Act according to circumstances.

Conserve troops.

Don't get in the way

of His Highness's plan.

Retreat!

General, we have insufficient food and forage,

and now this...

General.

Liu Yikang must have lack soldiers,

if not, they would have launch an attack,

instead they just burned the granary.

Yes, general.

Let's bring the whole army

and head straight to Matou,

with Shen Tingzhang tied in front of the formation.

There's no way they can fight.

Report!

What's the panic?

Song army raided our vanguad camp

in Hulukou.

What?

How many casualties?

Hulukou is in flame,

the entire vanguard

are all stuck inside,

I don't think they can get out.

I will kill Shen Tingzhang

to relieve my hatred!

Such bravery.

Keep him.

He'll be useful.

Shen Tingzhang.

I thought capturing Song's commander-in-chief

would have scare Liu Yikang.

I didn't expect him to burn my food and forage,

and destroy my vanguard camp.

King Peng Cheng takes the big picture into consideration.

He wouldn't have give up driving out the enemy

because of me alone.

But

he has yet to launch an attack.

It seems likes, to him,

you are somewhat special.

King Peng Cheng Wang is brave and skillful in warfare.

Large-scale attack is a reckless move.

The wait

is just defeat

your army,

so you never dare to go South anymore.

With your current situation,

I'd advise you

to quickly withdraw your troops.

Alright then.

I'll want to see

how brave and skilful is King Peng Cheng.

I will use your life

as an exchange.

With this, I'll be able to take down Peng Cheng

and Matou without having to fight.

You can give it a try.

Matou City

Your Highness.

Where's Concubine Li?

Concubine Li...

I'm asking you, where is Concubine Li?

Your Highness,

after we successfully ambush Wei army,

Concubine Li led the troops to intercept at the entrance of the valley.

She said it's to wipe out Wei army.

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Step aside!

Please look at the big picture!

Concubine Li is back!

Concubine Li is back!

Matou City

Lige!

Lige!

Fourth Brother.

I...

I did it!

Lige!

Lige!

Silly girl.

Your Highness.

How is Concubine Li?

No major issue.

She just need some rest.

Your Highness.

This is sent by Wan Jingsheng.

He's here to negotiate.

Negotiate?

Your Highness, please think twice.

Your Highness.

Soldiers have always been deceptive.

We never know how much has Wan Jingsheng suffered

because of the senior general.

And he has always been cunning,

so I don't think he's sincere in negotiating.

This must be a Hongmen Banquet.

It must be Hongmen Banquet.

Am I right?

That's true.

Your Highness can't go.

I've ordered Shen Feng

to burn Wei army's granary

and Concubine Li raided Wei army's vanguard camp,

it's all to make Wan jingsheng negotiate with us.

So I must go.

Wan Jingsheng

has not launched an attack

because he doesn't know

our troop strength.

After harassing them repeatedly,

at this point they are sure

our reinforcements have arrived.

And now their food has been burned

and has General Shen in their hand.

Under these circumstances,

he has no choice but to negotiate

and he thinks that he has a bargaining chip.

Your Highness forced Wan Jingsheng to negotiate

to save my father.

Your Highness,

do not take risk.

My father wouldn't have wanted this.

Yes, Your Highness.

Although the reinforcements have set out,

it is still unknown if they would arrive

before the day of the negotiation.

If the fight started

before the reinforcement arrived,

Your Highness will be in danger.

Your Highness,

why not let me

negotiate on your behalf?

Reinforcements have passed Xuyi,

if everything goes well,

they should arrive on the day the negotation takes place.

Agreeing to the negotiation now

is to

buy some time for the reinforcements.

When the reinforcements arrive,

we will catch him off guard.

And on the day of the negotiation,

Wan Jingsheng will definitely bring General Shen.

At that time, we will look for opportunity

to rescue General Shen.

But if

the reinforcements fail to arrive on time,

then Your Highness...

I have decided.

There's no need to discuss anymore.

This time

we have to take a bet,

and we must win.

Pass the order,

prepare for war.

-Yes. -Yes.

Your Highness.

Brother Ji.

Why are you here?

Xiao Xin.

Your Highness.

Is my sister in the North

with King Peng Cheng?

San Bao has told me.

My sister is not dead.

That's great!

You have seen San Bao?

That day

he was locked up in a room in the hard labour department.

I was the one who rescued him.

Xiao Xin,

what happened exactly?

That day two people

dragged San Bao who was tied up

out from the side room.

And then,

I knocked them out.

Where is San Bao?

San Bao?

He has hurried to the North

and ran away.

Oh right,

Your Highness,

why is San Bao caught?

This is Peng Cheng mansion.

Xiao Xin.

Where did you go?

I'm coming.

I have to leave now, Your Highness.

Goodbye, Brother Ji.

Okay.

Take care of yourself.

Rest assured, Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Chief Secretariat.

Look.

These two peonies

has bloomed beautifully.

They're carefully cared by Your Highness,

of course

they look the most beautiful.

After taking care of it for so long,

I still feel that

it's better to be one that outshine the others.

Hundreds of flowers bloom beautifully,

when it looks the most beautiful, it will surely outshine,

it's just that even when it outshines,

it will still need

Your Highness's careful guidance.

Until it is left alone,

it will understand that

it will still need to rely on someone.

I hope that you,

for my sake,

can be forgiving.

He will understand in the future

who is the one to rely on.

I understand.

Your Highness.

I've checked.

All the good news we received before

are indeed fake.

Lu Yuan

deliberately blocked the true intelligence.

There must be some conspiracy.

It's time to put pressure on him.

Military Intelligence

Vice Minister of Defence.

Your Highness.

Is there any new battle report?

Your Highness,

it is another victory report.

Ever since King Peng Cheng personally led the conquest,

there's frequent victory news from the North.

I'm sure in the near future,

King Peng Cheng

will return in triumph.

King Peng Cheng

is really brave and skilful at warfare.

This is worthy of celebration.

Worthy of celebration?

I don't think so.

There are frequent victory news from the North.

Although it is a good thing,

but this means

the war has now reached

the crunch time.

Your Highness is right.

King Peng Cheng leads the way,

we

should also do our best for the war.

We've cleaned up the household registration in various places

and reorganized nearly 10,000 soldiers.

We've sent them to the sergeant

for registeration

awaiting for King Jing Ling's dispatch.

Chief Secretariat.

You have confused me.

You first said

there are almost no more soldiers,

and then you said it's difficult to count them.

But now the Census Section

has been burnt down

and you said you've rectified

nearly ten thousand soldiers.

Chief Secretariat,

you're good.

I will pour in my effort

for the war in the North.

This is where my responsibility lies.

Great.

I will then

have to thank you, Chief Secretariat.

This time, King Peng Cheng personally lead the conquest,

he's the example for the army and the people of Song.

As for Central Protector Lu,

he charges the enemy lines together,

deserve to be rewarded.

Chief Secretariat, write it down.

Tell Central Protector Lu

to ensure the safety of King Peng Cheng,

until His Highness returns.

There must be no mistakes

or it will be a capital offense.

Capital offense?

Central Protector Lu now has a big responsibility.

Chief Secretariat.

This is an important edict.

Draft it fast

and

quickly send it to Central Protecor Lu.

No delay.

Yes.

Commanding General's Office

It's late, why aren't you resting yet?

Aren't you the same?

It's late and you haven't gone in to rest.

Have something to eat.

Fourth Brother.

About the negotiation,

I'll go with you.

Lige,

this is not just any negotiation.

Stay in the city, okay?

You are my family

and also my love one.

How can I

stay here alone in the city waiting for you?

I will be worried.

If anything happen to you,

how can I live alone?

We have to live

and die together.

Okay.

We'll go together,

but we will surely return.

Return to Matou.

Return to Jian Kang City.
