Little Big Soldier Page #2

Synopsis: Two armies clash in ancient war-torn China; none survive but a young general from a royal house and a farmer foot soldier who binds the fallen leader to take him home and claim a reward. Many stand in their way: an abandoned songstress, the noble's own murderous younger brother, desperate beggars, rough slavers, and the pair's own differing agendas. Through it all, a bond forms between the two, and what will happen at journey's end becomes anyone's guess.

I'd say rice. I love rice.

White grain and rice are

the same thing, fool!

You tired?

Feeling comfy, right?

Now I'm relieved.

Right, I'll need some buffalo.

One male, one female.

The male will work in the farms.

The female will give milk.

I'm dying to know how you're gonna

drag me all the way to Liang's.

Wait, I can't milk a cow.

So I'll need a wife who can do that.

My eldest brother was a great warrior.

He fought till death.

My second brother was a honest person.

He died on the battlefield as well.

I'm the last seed of the family.

General, do you have any siblings?

Wish I hadn't.

Why are you taking me here?

I couldn't find 'em.

The Mt. Phoenix is huge!

There's a lot of grounds to cover...

Was he being tied up?

Yes, his dad tied him up.

Said he's crazy or something...

They both appeared to be crazy...

Can I go back now?

Revenge...

They want to take you back from me?

It's not gonna be easy.

I've been in battles for years,

never seen an

elegant arrow like this one.

I've seen this.

It's someone not friendly.

People like you just asking this

for yourself.

You know, they have you

and you'll die.

I have you and you'll live.

You are right.

I don't want to die in vain.

I'll come with you.

Turns out General is afraid of death.

If I die, I'll die with dignity.

This way, or that way?

Even if we make it to Liang's,

I could make a truce

with one condition: your execution.

Don't fool me.

Nobody fools me.

Except that woman who drugged you.

You have lots of women?

Let's talk about you.

What type of women you like?

We have the lustful,

and the educated.

I like the honest ones.

But I'd probably take the educated.

She could teach me how to read.

You don't have a woman, right?

That woman, what did she say to you?

I'll tell you, if you can make it

back to Liang's.

You guys, go down there.

Back to where we came.

Keep a lookout.

Who is that?

The Others.

They're bound to their own rules.

Go make your acquaintance.

They don't speak our language.

They are passionate people.

Good fighters too.

Better stay away from 'em.

Hurry up, you don't look that tired.

Birds are gathering around,

but Phoenixes don't go with the flow.

What chicken and ducks

are you talking about?

If a phoenix lost its fur,

it'd make a chicken look elegant.

You're good at throwing rocks.

I used to hunt wild chicken

with rocks when I was a boy.

Hey.

You know why our troops camped

at the Mt. Phoenix?

How would I know?

Nevertheless, we had hidden there

for 2 days waiting for you.

That's what I thought, a set up.

If it wasn't an ambush,

my elite unit would have

crushed you majorly

and conquered Liang.

Stop the nonsense.

We are not that weak.

Anyway, an AWOL like you,

it's a shame to Liang.

Now, see how you elite you are.

General versus AWOL private?

Liang versus Wei. Fair and simple.

You want fair?

Keep your hands off my wound.

You have your wish.

You're dead.

You're dead too.

We're both dead.

Pervert.

War is over. Wei won.

Wars have been around these years.

More people have joined the military.

He kills him, and he gets killed by him.

What's the attraction?

Liang wins. Liang wins.

You call this fair?

It's war.

No such thing as being fair.

We'll soon have meat to eat.

Now, have some appetizer.

Lost your appetite?

Fine by me.

General, what do you eat when

there is no war to go to?

Meat and seafood.

Any good food you can

possibly think of.

Now I get it.

You people constantly go to war

just because of digestion problems.

Didn't you say you can't read?

My dad taught me these 2 words.

They are the easiest to write.

These 2 words are not easy

to write at all.

Why don't you go to Wei with me.

I can offer you a high position.

I forgot to tell you one thing.

General alive, the rewards will be farmland

and money. No more serving in military.

There will be no more killing for me.

Just me and the farms.

When there's a war, there's a winner.

A winner of unification of China.

Only that will put an end to wars.

Only that will give you little people

a normal life.

You know what,

we could have

lived our normal life,

if you had just left us alone!

You really don't want a bite?

Frankly, I'm a bit hungry.

Here comes our meat!

Wonderful meat.

I'll get you firewood.

You have babies. Can't eat you.

My dad said...

Let's go. Let's go!

Someone is coming. Let's go!

Why the panic? He's alone.

It's our guy.

Hey, bro.

Bastard!

You. Go that way.

A Liang-made sword.

On your Knees.

I'm a Liang's soldier.

I only knee to Liang's superiors.

- Now what?

- You are a scout from Liang's.

Yes.

- What about you?

- I'm a scout too.

What are you scouting for?

I'm going to the battlefield

at Mt. Phoenix. No...

No survivors found.

Why take the track?

Your convoy is taking the main road...

Track is faster...

Pretty fast.

I don't know him.

What?

He's got lightheaded

after falling off from a horse.

No... Yes, I fell...

- Either way I don't know you.

- What?

You don't kill scouts.

That's agreement during wars.

Is this your sword?

Yes.

Why you're carrying

a General type sword?

I borrowed it...

You're not a scout.

No, I'm not.

Where is the Wei's General?

I don't know.

Don't you lie to me!

I know, I know.

I've got your General.

You got balls.

- I got no balls!

- Where is he?

- He's fled.

- You're no use to us then.

No. No. I-I hid him.

Take us there.

- He's really gone.

- Are you messing with me?

Back off! You all back off!

Back off!

Stay back!

- If I die, you won't get anything.

- What do you want?

Rewards.

I can give you that.

Shame on you.

One of you is useless to me.

Now what?

Get him!

Pardon me.

Wu.

Stand down.

Let them through.

He's still alive, isn't he?

Pretty good.

Just a General, not a big deal.

Maybe I'd capture their King later.

Am I really a shame to Liang?

Am I?

Come on.

Come get me!

I'm not dead yet.

Didn't expect that, right?

Because of your conspiracy,

They'll haunt you

for the rest of your life!

And you.

A pity man.

A dishonorable AWOL.

One main road leads the way

to homecoming

empty-handed!

Where you come from?

Where's your home?

When I fulfill the conquest

I'll start building my big boat.

Yeah. I'm gonna sail off

on the night of the full moon

and travel the whole world.

My father said,

paint a dragon on the ship,

and it'll attract a phoenix.

The day you the Prince are crowned,

you will get anything you want.

To become a King, me and him

we'd never be the same like before.

Take some rest, Prince.

My dad said, a sparrow could

one day become a phoenix.

Pretty good.

Why did you trick me?

I wanted to hit you.

So kill me, General.

I'm not a General.

I'm a private.

What's the difference?

You just kill.

Hey, you're lost, right?

You really think that when you get to

Shen Shu, everything will be all right?

I'm a small potato.

This map I have here,

will get you to Shen Shu.

You'll get a lot of grounds to cover.
