Original subtitles

In April 1944,

the Japanese army launched Operation Number One.

The entire province of Henan fell within a few days.

The CPC Central Committee decided to establish a new base in Henan.

The Shandong Military Region's Lunan Independent Regiment headed

to Henan to carry out harassment operations.

After completing the harassment mission, Brigade Commander Chen Tianfang

and Commissar Lu Ian led the brigade

to execute a strategic shift.

And Chief of Staff Iv Chong led the Grey Wolf Unit

to cover the brigade's move from the front.

[Grey Wolf: Fight for Victory]

[Iv Chong, Chief of Staff of the Independent Brigade]

Qiang!

[Qin Feng, Captain of the Grey Wolf Unit]

While there is time,

hurry up and take a bite.

Hurry up

and take a bite.

Hurry up and take a bite.

Attack!

The enemy's main direction of attack has changed.

The position of the Second Company on the west side is now very dangerous.

The second platoon of the Grey Wolf Unit

can take over at any time as reserves.

We should take attack positions on the southeast of the west positions

to form crossfire with the west positions.

Meanwhile,

the southeastern positions

can also cover our army's frontal area.

We've already been holding this position for 20 hours

and must hold it for at least three more hours

to buy time for the main force's relocation.

Qiang.

Yes?

Quickly set up attack positions

on the southeast side of the western positions.

Understood.

Wang Meng,

let's go.

Wei, let's go.

Go.

Fire!

We have all the heavy weapons of the entire brigade.

But to stop the Japanese army,

our firepower is very limited.

Chief,

set up a defense line one kilometer deep here.

Three companies of the third battalion

can form an alternating defense.

After the first company withstands the Japanese army for two hours,

they can orderly retreat to 500 meters to the right front of the third company

to establish assault fortifications.

After the second company withstands for two hours,

they can fall back 500 meters to the left flank of the third company

to establish an offensive.

Then when the Japanese troops enter our encirclement,

three companies can attack simultaneously

to eliminate the Japanese forces in front of us.

The Grey Wolf Unit can launch flank attacks

on both sides three kilometers behind us

to prevent the Japanese troops from encircling.

Okay.

Let's do it.

Fire!

Die!

Hold on.

Chief, the Japanese army is approaching.

Never mind me. Just shoot.

Charge!

Yamaguchi.

Watanabe.

We must have caught the main force of the Communist Party.

They possess so many heavy weapons.

Such equipment must be for at least a brigade.

Your judgment is very accurate.

It seems

that it's time for us to encircle them.

Then I will report to the company commander immediately.

Thank you, Watanabe.

Chief!

Communicator!

Yes!

Send a message to Chief of Staff Iv and tell him,

the main force of the brigade

will arrive at the evacuation point in one hour.

The Grey Wolf Unit and the third battalion

have completed the blocking mission.

Tell them to follow the pre-arranged plan

to rendezvous with the main force.

Understood.

What's wrong, Chief?

Qin Feng.

Chief.

How is the situation?

The second and third companies are still resisting the enemy attacks.

How about you?

I'm fine.

Has the main force of the brigade reached the safe location?

I have received the telegram.

The independent brigade will soon arrive at the relocation point.

The brigade commander orders us to retreat according to the plan.

But the Japanese army's attack is fierce at the moment.

We can't shake them off.

If we evacuate according to the plan,

there's a risk of exposing the main force's position.

I see.

We should go all out

to win a brief respite from the Japanese forces

and then swiftly move behind enemy lines during this time.

Understood.

This way, we can disrupt the enemy's Operation Number One

to the greatest extent behind enemy lines.

And the Grey Wolf Unit

no longer needs to execute the flanking plan.

Once the brigade commander agrees to our plan,

we'll shake off the enemy as soon as possible.

Understood.

I'll go send the telegram.

Okay.

I agree with you and Yamaguchi.

Then our combat plan...

It can be implemented.

With Yamaguchi attacking this enemy unit from the front,

you can lead your battalion

to flank and encircle them.

We must completely annihilate this Eighth Route Army unit.

Understood.

The brigade commander has agreed to our idea.

Let's now discuss the specific action plan.

This is Ping County, the core stronghold where the enemy is gathering.

I want to lead the Grey Wolf Unit into Ping County covertly

and try to destroy the Japanese army's armory and other strategic materials.

Ping County is a base for the Japanese army.

If you only take the Grey Wolf Unit inside,

won't you be outnumbered?

Don't worry, Chief.

The Grey Wolf Unit has been to places like this many times.

Alright.

After you infiltrate Ping County,

contact me as soon as possible.

Ping County is currently the frontline of our operation.

Sato, I'm sending you to Ping County

because your intelligence is vital to the Imperial Army's

operations throughout Henan.

My mission is to learn the enemy's operational deployment

and eliminate this enemy unit as soon as possible.

It's your intelligence

that helped the Imperial Army clear the entirety of Henan swiftly.

You've saved the lives of countless Imperial soldiers.

We must pursue the victory

and completely wipe out the Eighth Route Army.

Understood.

The most important thing right now

is to locate the main force of the Eighth Route Army.

The Eighth Route Army unit we are currently facing is very tenacious.

They have withstood for a day and a night.

However, I'm afraid that, like you said,

they are not the main force of the Eighth Route Army.

That's correct.

Therefore, we must

follow this unit closely.

Only then can we find the main force of the Eighth Route Army.

Good.

I believe they cannot hold out for much longer.

Colonel,

we've received an urgent telegram from Major Yamaguchi

saying that the Eighth Route Army holding back our main forces

is very likely not the main force.

What?

Just as Sato anticipated.

Send a telegram command.

Tell Watanabe to lead a unit to Ping County

and follow Sato's command.

By all means, we must follow this enemy unit.

Only then can we find their real main force.

Understood.

Major Yamaguchi,

we have lost track of the Eighth Route Army.

What?

Please remain calm, Major Yamaguchi.

The Eighth Route Army

has cleared their tracks

and left many fake traces to confuse us.

Idiot!

Yes.

After them!

Those rats!

I have checked all the city gates.

They're under heavy guard.

It's difficult to sneak in with weapons.

Let's bury our weapons

somewhere nearby for now

and retrieve them when we leave the city.

Okay.

Then, what do we do after we enter the city?

Commissar Lu has already made contact with the comrades

at the enemy work department's liaison office in Ping County.

They will prepare weapons for us.

Let's disguise ourselves and enter the city separately.

Thirty minutes later,

we'll rendezvous beside the drum tower in the city.

Okay.

Who is it?

I'm your cousin from Auntie's family. I've come to seek refuge.

What's your name?

Sun Chuxiong.

I'm from Chengde.

Qin Feng, Captain of the Grey Wolf Unit.

I'm Zhuang Zhiyong. Just call me Zhuang.

I've received the instructions.

Everything is prepared.

Please sit.

Mr. Sato,

we have located a secret liaison site of the Communist Party.

Where is it?

No. 7, Ren'ai Street.

Assemble the action team

and take down this liaison site.

Understood.

Hold on.

I will ask Major Watanabe to dispatch a squad of military police

to cooperate with your action.

Thank you, Mr. Sato.

I didn't expect

that you could get hold of such important information

right under the noses of those Japs.

To coordinate with you in destroying the armory,

our comrades who have infiltrated the enemy's ranks

have already obtained the layout of their armory.

That's great.

Zhuang,

I have arranged all the team members.

Okay.

Thank you.

Qiang, Wang Meng, and I will each take a few team members to scout

in Ping County.

We must find out the Japs' military deployment.

- Understood. - Understood.

What about me?

Stay here on standby.

Why?

What do you think?

Don't worry. There will be plenty of opportunities for you to take action.

The target is right across from here.

It's the Communist Party's liaison site.

To prevent information leaks,

I didn't tell you in advance.

You have three minutes

to check your firearms and ammunition.

We'll storm it in five minutes.

Remember.

Leave no one alive.

Understood.

The retreat route

is from here to here.

This must be guarded.

Understood?

Captain, the documents are ready.

That was quick.

Take a look.

Alright.

Let's dress the same as today when the time comes

and carry out the wine party mission.

Okay.

Kill the lights.

Go!

Let's go.

Let's go together.

Listen.

Take this

and go.

Move!

No.

This is an order!

Let's go together.

This is an order.

Go!

Go! Move!

Don't move.

You've hidden well enough.

Release me now,

and no harm done.

I can let you go without holding you accountable.

I never intended to leave.

Chase them!

Move!

After them!

Quickly!

[Japanese Army's Base]

The armory is at the center of the base.

There's a large open space in front of its gate.

If we launch an attack from the main gate on the south side,

with our current firearms,

it'll be hard to effectively detonate the armory from such a long distance.

But if we detonate the armory from a close distance,

we'll become live targets on the open ground

for the Japanese army.

What about infiltrating in disguise?

Is it possible?

No.

The base is heavily guarded.

Patrol teams pass by every ten minutes at night.

And they use special passwords.

According to our observations,

there's no regular pattern to follow.

The changing of guards at the armory is also carried out internally.

There are no outsiders involved.

Given the situation,

sneaking in without causing a stir

is almost impossible.

Blowing up the east wall

will allow us to reach the armory at the fastest speed.

Blowing up the wall?

Won't that alarm all the Japanese?

Then let's make an even bigger commotion.

But it will be quite dangerous.

We've faced our share of danger already.

You arrange it.

I plan to split the Grey Wolf Unit into three squads.

Squad One will start a feint attack from the main gate

to draw the Japanese forces' firepower.

Squad Two will blow up the right-side wall

and assault the base.

If there's a chance,

they can directly enter the armory and detonate it.

Zhuang.

I need to ask you for some Japanese military uniforms.

No problem.

Okay.

After Squad Two takes action,

Squad Three will disguise themselves as a nearby patrol

and pretend to reinforce

in order to enter the base from the right side of the wall.

If Squad Two successfully carries out the detonation,

then Squad Three will be responsible for covering Squad Two.

If Squad Two fails,

Squad Three will enter the armory amidst the chaos

and then proceed to detonate.

Have you understood?

Understood.

Qin Feng, it takes the Japanese soldiers at the base

a maximum of 20 minutes to get to the armory.

So you must be careful.

Rest assured.

I'll lead Squad One in the feint.

Qiang,

lead Squad Two to destroy the wall.

No problem.

Wang Meng will be in charge of Squad Three.

Yanan, you work with Wang Meng.

The Japanese you learned from Mu Qingqing

will come in handy this time.

Understood.

The explosion will surely cause chaos among the Japanese troops.

Then we can evacuate amidst the chaos

and rendezvous at the southeast corner of the base.

Understood.

Get ready.

It's fine.

Who is it?

It's me.

Come in quickly.

Zhuang.

She is one of us.

Help me get the medical kit.

It's on the table.

You know, Zhuang.

Unless it's absolutely necessary,

I would not come here.

Let's not talk about this for now.

I'll treat your wound first.

You mean a Communist spy was injured and escaped?

Yes.

I have been incompetent in my duties.

Please punish me, Mr. Sato.

It's mainly because

I didn't expect the mole in the action team

to be Qin Lu.

It's because of her that the person got away.

Mr. Sato,

there was a mole in the action team,

and one Communist has escaped.

The wine party the day after tomorrow won't be safe, right?

We still don't know the person who escaped is alive or dead.

Ping County has already been occupied by the Imperial Japanese Army.

If a few small spies

could make us postpone the wine party,

where is the dignity of the Imperial Japanese Army?

Yes, you are right.

The party will proceed as usual.

Yes.

However, your action team has made such a big blunder.

You need to work hard to make it up.

Rest assured, Mr. Sato.

I will capture the remaining members of the Communist Party

and ensure the safety of the party.

Sato must be killed,

or else the trouble will be endless.

Now that the liaison site is destroyed

and your members of the action team have died,

Sato will surely strengthen his precautions.

How can you still carry out your plan?

I have already obtained the pass for the party.

I can go on with the mission.

Without absolute certainty,

there will be greater sacrifices.

We intercepted and killed Wang's intelligence agents

heading to Ping County from Shanghai Station.

Based on the documents found on them,

we made passes to attend the wine party.

Sato is a Japanese spy

who once provided false intelligence to the military command,

leading to Chiang Kai-shek's misjudgment of the situation

and his collapse in Henan.

Our original plan

was to make a move at the party the day after tomorrow.

It's just a pity

that this situation has arisen.

But with your current injury, it's impossible for you to take action.

But

the party the day after tomorrow is a once-in-a lifetime opportunity.

If missed,

there could be even greater uncertainties.

If Sato must be killed,

you can leave him to us.

Just like you said,

he came

to establish a spy agency in Ping County.

So for all our anti-Japanese forces,

he poses a huge threat.

Can you tell us more about Sato

and your action plan?

Sato only arrived in Ping County today.

The enemy command will host a party for him the day after tomorrow.

Our original plan was to disguise ourselves

as key figures of Wang's puppet government from Shanghai

and take him out while meeting him.

Key figures of Wang?

These are their documents.

The photo has already been replaced with Ren Chao's

and mine.

Zhuang,

replacing the photos on these two documents

won't be a problem, right?

Right.

Sato must be eliminated.

After destroying the armory,

Yanan and I will disguise ourselves to infiltrate the party.

Me?

That's right.

What?

Are you scared?

Weren't you just

volunteering here?

I'm not scared.

I guarantee to complete the task.

Qiang, send a telegram to ask for permissions immediately.

Okay.

The brigade commander has replied.

What did he say?

He agrees to our carrying out the assassination.

Great.

Tonight, let's destroy the armory according to the original plan.

- Understood. - Understood.

Move.

Fire!

The captain and the others have already taken action.

Prepare for the detonation according to the plan.

Shoot!

Grenade!

Tell the commander we're under attack.

Request backup.

Close in on the armory.

Which unit are you from?

We are reinforcing the armory

at the command of Mr. Sato.

Follow us.

You, go around to the rear

and protect the armory.

Understood.

Go blow up the armory.

I will go support Squad Two.

Okay.

Quickly.

Go.

Give me the gun.

[Armory] What are you doing?

Quick. Take as much as you can.

What are you waiting for? Hurry up and take them.

We're rich.

Grenade!

Meet up with Squad Three. Go!

What's going on?

Quickly!

Grab the grenade and retreat!

Hurry!

Retreat quickly.

Wei, I'm here.

Quick, grenades.

Retreat!

Go to the rally point.

Retreat according to the plan.

Lock down the city and blockade all key points.

Those people have received special training.

They can't leave the city after blowing up the armory.

Relay my command to Watanabe immediately.

We must annihilate this enemy force.

Understood.

No.

Let's go!

Qiang!

Retreat!

Go!

Qiang,

take them and retreat first. I'll cover you.

No, you fall back with them.

No more nonsense. Go!

Retreat!

Retreat!

They should be safe now, right?

Let's retreat.

Retreat!

Charge!

Brigade Commander, here is an urgent telegram.

The enemy's armory has been destroyed by us,

but we have over a dozen soldiers injured.

Gu Yanan is injured.

Qin Feng and Shuigen have been captured.

[ The armory has been destroyed.]

[Gu Yanan is injured. Qin Feng and Shuigen are captured.]

I must go to Ping County immediately

to rescue Feng, Shuigen, and the others.

No, you're the brigade commander.

You cannot leave your post.

What do you mean, I can't leave my post?

Chen Tianfang,

I hope you will calm down first.

Qin Feng has been captured.

How do you expect me to stay calm?

Do you trust me?

Of course, I do.

I think I should be the one to go to Ping County to rescue Feng

and carry out the mission to assassinate Sato.

No.

We can kill Sato next time.

Rescuing Feng is the top priority right now.

Notify Chief of Staff Iv

to lead the third battalion back to the brigade immediately.

Understood.

Alright.

I agree that you should go to Ping County.

However, with the armory being blown up,

the security within Ping County will be doubled.

Even if you rescue Feng,

it will be difficult to retreat unscathed.

I think we must create chaos

to distract the attention of the Japanese army.

Are you thinking

of assassinating Sato to create chaos?

I will go to Ping County with you.

Okay.

I agree.

Notify the independent brigade

that the commissar and I will take them to Ping County together.

I will lead a platoon into the city first.

And the rest will provide support outside the city.

I will say it.

Shuigen!

Where is the main force of the Eighth Route Army?

Tell me.

Where exactly are they?

At your mother's place.

Shuigen!

Shuigen!

Shuigen!

Pry his mouth open.

Understood.

Mr. Sato,

the one called Shuigen is already dead.

Truly a tough nut to crack.

Truly a man from the Eighth Route Army.

What should we do next?

The Eighth Route Army wants to cause chaos in the rear.

Alert the city.

Understood.

Have the people from Shanghai arrived?

According to the plan, they should arrive at the liaison office

early this morning. But they have not shown up yet.

Their itinerary is highly confidential.

I haven't told anyone.

That traitor didn't know either?

Qin Lu didn't know.

Could it be that something happened in Shanghai

and they were held back?

They are all key figures.

There shouldn't be any slip-ups.

[File Pocket]

Shanghai has sent two intelligence officers

to assist you in Ping County.

This is their information.

About the welcome party...

The party must not be canceled.

It concerns the dignity of the Imperial Japanese Army.

Sorry.

I see.

Double the city guard.

Understood.

I am giving you three days to clear the threat

of the Eighth Route Army

inside the city.

The wine party will be held in three days.

Understood.

[Three days later]

Why did you only come back today?

What about the two colleagues from Shanghai?

We went to fetch them.

But no one showed up.

I asked the people of Luoyang.

They said

they had never seen the two people sent by the headquarters.

Then I went to Qu County.

They said the two people stayed for one night

and left early the next day in the morning.

They left early in the morning?

Yes.

Quick.

Let's go to the party venue.

Hurry up.

Ladies and gentlemen,

welcome to this wine party.

Thank you all for coming.

We've just conquered Henan,

and many things are waiting to be done.

You've gathered in Ping County

to contribute to its development.

The Empire will rely greatly on you all in the future.

To conquer the world,

we must first conquer Asia.

To conquer Asia,

we must first conquer China.

Since the moment that our troops

set foot on this land,

it has been determined

that this is the territory of the Japanese Empire.

Now, let's raise our glasses together

to the Japanese Empire. Cheers!

Cheers!

Mr. Sato.

Mr. Sato.

Who are you?

I am Su Hong.

This is Li Tong.

We are ordered by the Shanghai Political Department

to work in Ping County.

We came to report to you.

Mr. Sato.

We're carrying out a secret task under the command of Colonel Kawano.

[ Japanese Military Police of Ping County]

We should have gone to the liaison office to report to you.

However, we heard you are hosting a party here.

So, we took the liberty to come here to see you.

Please forgive us, Mr. Sato.

Please forgive us.

Under the command of Colonel Kawano,

we are to transfer the prisoner

to Mr. Sato's welcome party.

Sorry, I haven't received such orders from my superiors.

I need to ask for instructions.

[Sato's hotel room]

Sir.

Are you alright?

I'm fine.

We lost Shuigen.

Let's go.

[The switchboard room of the hotel]

Sir.

Where is Mr. Sato?

In the party hall.

Sir.

There's one more thing.

Just now,

there were a man and a woman,

saying that they came from the Shanghai Political Department

and that they wanted to see Mr. Sato.

Double the guard!

Understood.

The establishment of the branch office in Ping County will depend on you.

Mr. Sato,

you're too kind.

You kind of have a Shanghai accent.

My ancestral home is in Hunan.

But I work at the headquarters in Shanghai all year round.

So I've picked up a bit of the Shanghai accent.

Hunan? I'm very familiar with it.

Is that so?

Where in Hunan?

Changsha.

Changsha?

Changsha is a nice place.

I's sorry.

I'm sorry.

Let's move.

Understood.

Hurry!

Sorry.

Without notice from above, you can't take the prisoner away.

You idiot!

Haven't I already said?

I am executing Colonel Kawano's orders.

Please wait a moment. I'll go and confirm.

Charge over!

Quickly report to Major Watanabe.

Let's go.

Hurry.

After them!

Hello?

Colonel,

Qin Feng was rescued, and Mr. Sato has been assassinated.

What? Sato has been assassinated?

You don't know who did it?

You can't catch the few enemy soldiers who infiltrated the city.

Idiots!

You are idiots!

Immediately rally three squadrons.

You must capture them.

Those rats.

Charge over!

Get in the car.

Get in.

Just go.

Leave me.

Go.

Let's go.

Quick.

Let's go.

Major,

we followed the enemy's tracks

and pursued them up to here.

They've entered the mountains.

Shall we continue the pursuit?

Continue!

Understood.

After them.

Those rats.

Take cover.

Take cover.

Per the regimental commander's orders,

the three squadrons stationed in the three towns under Ping County

have already started detouring from three directions

to converge towards our position.

The regimental commander

wants us to encircle the Eighth Route Army

to prevent them from escaping

as a full battalion.

When the other three squadrons arrive,

we can finish them off together.

We only have soldiers of three squadrons.

The regimental commander ordered us to encircle the Eighth Route Army.

But considering the combat strength of the enemy

and the terrain here,

it is impossible for us to completely trap them.

Therefore,

we must use the Chinese way.

We should encircle them on three sides, leaving one side open.

We should let the Eighth Route Army escape through the gap we leave.

In this direction,

the soldiers from our three squadrons will close in.

In that way,

we can block them once again.

Commissar,

the Japanese are chasing us too closely.

We must find a way to shake them off.

Let me lead the independent battalion to hold them back.

No way.

Sir!

Sir,

the Japs following us

are about the strength of a battalion.

They are dividing their forces into three groups

and flanking us from both sides.

A battalion of the Japs is already approaching us.

Presumably, the Japanese have already called up troops

from the three surrounding counties

to come and reinforce.

So, what we're about to face

will be an encirclement by a battalion and three squadrons.

If we break out now,

we'll likely encounter the reinforcing Japanese forces.

If that's the case,

we will be attacked from both front and rear,

with no strength left to retaliate.

These Japanese want to encircle us, don't they?

Okay.

Let them.

But the location of this encirclement

must be decided by us.

You mean,

we should find a terrain advantageous to us to hold them up

and wait for reinforcements?

Right.

Let's find a high ground

where we can hold out

for more than 24 hours.

We can mobilize all available forces of the independent brigade

and ask the military region to send troops for support.

When the time comes, we'll give the Japanese

an encirclement of our own

and take down this group of Japanese

along with the reinforcements.

Sir,

have you thought this through?

Once something goes wrong,

we can hardly imagine the consequences.

Dragonhead Mountain.

Right.

Dragonhead Mountain.

Where we can hold out for 24 hours as you said.

Only Dragonhead Mountain.

Feng!

Yes?

Immediately tell our action plan to Chief of Staff Iv

and the military region commanders by telegram.

Understood.

Commissar,

quickly lead our main force

and proceed to Dragonhead Mountain

to start constructing defensive fortifications.

The subsequent blocking mission

will be carried out by the Grey Wolf Unit and me.

Okay.

I will wait for you at Dragonhead Mountain.

Attack!

Attack!

Sir!

The military region and Chief of Staff Iv have replied.

They've mobilized the nearest elite troops.

And Chief of Staff Iv has already led the independent brigade

to head towards Dragonhead Mountain.

The military region has ordered us

to hold our position at all costs for 16 hours.

Grey Wolf Unit!

Yes!

We must buy enough time for the commissar

and the independent battalion.

Hold back the enemy's attack at all costs!

Retreat to Dragonhead Mountain after one hour.

Understood!

Quick!

Speed up!

Speed up!

Keep up!

Guys, we have held out for nearly an hour.

The enemy is about to complete their encirclement.

Prepare to retreat.

- Retreat! - Retreat!

All preparations are complete.

Prepare for battle!

- Understood! - Understood!

Major,

this Eighth Route Army unit has occupied the high ground.

It seems they are prepared for a fight to the death with us.

The regimental commander ordered us to make it a quick battle.

I'm afraid the opportunity has already been lost.

And their heavy firepower is fierce.

Our casualties will be heavy...

Even heavy casualties can't stop

my determination to annihilate them.

They are isolated troops and trapped beasts.

Even the fiercest prey cannot escape from the hunter's palm.

This time, we must completely annihilate them

and let the regimental commander see our resolve and will to fight.

Understood.

This is our best chance to wipe away the disgrace.

Attack!

Charge!

Fire!

Attack! Keep attacking!

There's a sniper!

Take cover!

Meng!

The northeast direction!

Get down.

Take cover.

He won't take the bait.

Yanan,

I'll go to the sandbags over there in a bit.

He will definitely shoot.

Can you find him?

Do you trust me?

I do.

I trust you too.

Just tell me if you can do it.

I can.

But you must be quick,

Feng.

Here it comes.

Three.

Two.

One.

Yanan!

I

Hit

that

man...

Gu Yanan.

Yes.

When did you join the Grey Wolf Unit?

On July 1st, 1943.

What is your dream?

To become an excellent sniper.

Brigade Commander, Commissar,

our ammo is running low.

Can we make it back?

Guys,

we have been holding out

for over 16 hours.

I know you've all reached your limit.

But the enemy's assault will continue.

We must grit our teeth and hold on.

Only by holding on will there be victory.

Only by holding on can we survive against all odds.

Sir, we are not cowards!

No one is a coward.

We are not cowards.

None of us are cowards.

- Right. - That's right.

None of us are cowards.

- Right. - We are not cowards.

Bring me the battle banner.

Yes.

If the banner stands,

we stand.

If the banner falls,

we perish.

If the banner stands, we stand.

One, two, one.

Quick.

Hurry.

Faster.

Faster. Hurry.

Major, the artillery support is in position.

Capture the position within one hour.

Attack!

Attack!

Those rats!

Annihilate them!

Darn it!

What on earth is this unit?

We can't take it down, even now.

Send Yamaguchi for reinforcements immediately.

Yes.

Commander, I am not a coward.

I'm not...

Qiang, my son,

I'll be waiting at home for your return.

Mother,

I will take care of you in the next life.

Qiang!

- Qiang! - Qiang!

Qiang!

[Grey Wolf Unit of Lunan Independent Brigade]

Bayonets.

- Kill! - Kill!

Sir,

I want

to go home...

Charge!

Major,

an Eighth Route Army unit has appeared behind us.

We're attacked on both sides. Let's retreat quickly.

Did you send a message to the commander requesting support?

The message has been sent.

He sent Yamaguchi to support us.

But they won't arrive so quickly.

He wants us to find a way to break through first.

Order the troops to follow me and break through.

Understood. Soldiers, let's break through together!

Rat!

Watanabe's army was wiped out.

Idiot!

Waste!

You are all idiots!

Colonel,

it has been ascertained

that the Eighth Route Army unit that defeated our forces

is the Lunan Independent Brigade.

So it's you, Chen Tianfang.

Colonel Kawano?

Rats!

We have arrived.

For this victory,

you held your ground for a full 21 hours

and lost many of your soldiers.

But I think

the spirit of the Eighth Route Army

and the spirit of the Grey Wolf Unit

will be passed on forever.

Everyone,

salute!

[Grey Wolf Unit of Lunan Independent Brigade]
