Little Big Soldier
During the Warring States Period,
China was made up of
dozens of nations.
Countless fights between states.
Society was in devastation.
The 7 largest states were known as
Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei and Qin.
The rest was nearly wiped out
a hundred years before the unification.
Qin then conquered Han and Zhao
subsequently.
Year 227 B.C.
When Wei's troops marching towards
the state of Liang.
they were ambushed by Liang
at Mt. Phoenix.
Both sides suffered heavily.
Death toll reached 3,000.
Third bro.
Third bro.
You're not lucky as I am.
- General!
- Who are you?
Liang's soldier.
One main road
leads to homecoming
My home is right at
the foot of Mt. Liang
Soils are rich there
Pretty good.
5 acres of farm
What to grow?
Let me tell you something.
When I was a boy, I caught a boar.
My dad had me let go of it.
You know why?
There were other boys
inside that belly.
You have boys?
You know what,
you're my captive now.
You've lost few blood.
Not a big deal.
This is the drug developed
by my family.
Don't spare this to anyone.
You hurt?
Now it gonna hurt more.
You're welcome, young man!
You'll live, you know.
And don't curse.
My dad said,
Scratch when you're itchy,
Smile when you ain't lucky!
Pretty good.
General.
Deputy General Yu.
Yes, I am.
Hang on a sec.
Why you're here?
In pursuit of Liang's.
In pursuit? How many have you killed?
Speak.
One.
- My men must fight hard.
- Liang's came hard on us...
Defend our nation with our lives.
- Please, for the sake of...
- AWOL personnel must face penalty.
General, my company was
all gone last night.
Gone? I was there last night.
In fact, we were ambushed.
And you were the traitor.
You're so cruel.
He saved your life, and you took his.
What you gonna do?
He was right.
You're all dead.
Kill me.
I don't kill POW.
Now, keep begging. I might let
you go, if you tried hard enough.
Just kill me.
You really want to die?
Here, let me help you.
Too bad,
I failed my mission.
Want to die?
Die another day.
Prince Wen, we've accomplished.
Like he said, to die with
dignity in a battle field.
You're AWOL.
Not exactly. Just playing dead.
My dad said, no shame for
living to fight another day,
only for being dead in vain.
Poor Third bro didn't listen to me.
He refused to play dead.
- How much am I worth?
- It doesn't hurt to tell you.
General alive, 5 acres of farm land.
I have a jade medal in possession.
How much is this broken thingy worth?
A lot.
I'll keep it as a gift.
But I don't believe you.
He's one of us. Still alive.
We were ambushed.
Anybody home?
Anybody home?
Someone, bring me meatloaf and liquor!
A big shot like you,
what would you say now?
"Absurd! Take him outside for beheading."
Nothing to eat in here.
General, spare me.
Liang's archer and infantry unit:
Ambushed our 1,000-strong elite unit.
Both sides were totally wiped out.
This is the sword I gave him.
But where is he now?
I believe we can find me.
Wu,
only if he's still among the living.
War is everywhere now,
where else you can go?
General, have you heard of Shen Shu?
The one in Mt. Phoenix?
A fortunate-telling tree.
Is he your captive?
He's my luck.
Hang in there. We're almost there.
How far?
Small potato.
Don't make me do this.
Don't.
Don't push your luck.
Give me liquor.
- No can do.
- Liquor.
You've fought many battles, haven't you?
Many. You can say
I'm a big time warrior.
Untie me.
Then you must have killed a lot.
Just too many.
Fought against 8 men at a time.
Like yesterday.
General, would you take me too?
I'd like to become your captive.
Okay.
I know some musical.
General, keep drinking.
I'll entertain you.
- If he turns out to be alive, what then?
- Keep in mind that he's already dead.
Why?
General, you've killed so many.
I'm not a General.
My family were killed by yours.
And I live to sing against my will.
I'm supposed to give you a good time
and serve you, General.
I didn't take pleasure in
drinking with you.
No more fight.
Open the gate. I'm a soldier.
I have taken a Wei's General...
Stop.
Whose this head?
A General of Wei.
That's him. I'm sure.
That's a head of Wei's General.
Reward him.
Just a sec.
Who killed him?
I did.
Really?
He must be an AWOL.
Cut off a dead man's head.
Behead him.
That's not true!
Where's the horse?
You gonna have to kill me
if you don't let me go.
Or I'll kill you in a heart beat.
Kill, kill, kill.
I grow farms.
I don't kill and I don't want to kill.
You're getting me mad.
I'm not gonna kill you.
Can't believe I just got
fooled by some woman.
I gave her food to eat,
and she gave me pill to swallow.
You deceived her first,
so it sounds fair.
She should have hit you instead.
Stupid helmet.
What did she say to you last night?
You small potato.
Who's stronger, me or him?
He's a natural.
- So I'm nowhere to compete with him?
- You're too soft and he got the heart.
To become the King,
you must learn from him.
I'll take a unit and head for Liang's.
Why don't you go back...
I won't go back until I see him.
You know what,
I've been looking forward to
life of peace and farms to grow
for 20 years.
The wagon is not here.
The rope was cut off.
Stop playing dead.
I'm too smart for that.
We better stay away from the main road.
Let's take a detour.
Like this track.
Just don't lose the map.
Strong liquor. Must be Liang's.
One small track
leads the way to home.
What now?
Like my dad said, step in sh*t.
Something good awaits me.
It's an ambush.
I get it.
What's loaded on that wagon?
Nothing particular.
Rip him.
Rip him off!
- Wait, wait...
- Who are you?
A General.
Says you.
Beat him.
Beat him down.
Stop!
Stop! Stop!
Sorry.
Please... stop.
Take whatever you want,
just let us go.
What possibly do you have,
besides this piece of junk?
I want revenge!
Shut your mouth!
Who's this guy?
He?
He... he's my son.
No! I'm not his son...
You little prick!
He's crazy. He thinks he's going to war.
I'm taking him back to grow farms.
Grow farms? There's nothing left
to grow because of the wars.
- Revenge!
- Get lost!
I'm in charge here.
I say we take the wagon.
Unfaithful prick!
You got a death wish?
This helmet will get you killed.
- How about this?
- This? Will you ever learn?
Let's go!
Bunch of fools.
They had no idea you're the MVP
"Most Valuable Package" here.
Your son?
I'm gonna treat you good!
So tie me up and
take me back to your farms!
Don't move. Don't breathe.
You were trying to strangle me to death?
If it wasn't me...
Prick!
It's not Dim Mak.
My dad was right.
I stepped in sh*t.
Pretty good.
Don't hurt us. I'm begging you!
Hold it there.
I could kill him,
or I could spare him.
I just have the power.
No! 3 acres for beans.
Tell me,
what I should do with
I can offer you a thousand acres.
That's too much.
I couldn't handle that much.
White grain or bean, what to grow?
