corporal level ...

- ... Please stand by me, Jang. - I'll stand by you

until my very last breath.

- This rank problem is not considered

solved to me.. - My God. What else now?

It's about Bujang ...

We haven't been fair to him.

Please rank him Vice General.

Bang ...

There has not been such a rank

even since Adam was born.

But since you are a general,

you can make him your vice.

- Count me out, then.

- Don't be like that.

What you say does matter.

- What if me make him a sergeant?

- There has never happened ...

... in any history of the world that someone

got promotion once every five minutes.

Then please tell him ...

... that he ranks a corporal.

That's good enough for him.

- I debated Lukman already.

- So?

I lost. I have told you...

- It is impossible for me to...

- Drop it. Thank you.

I came all the way here only to rank

a Corporal.

I can't stand it.

So this is the end of our friendship.

I want to go away.

You want to leave me, Jang ?

I have no other choice, Bang.

If you insist to go ...

Here.

For what?

Shoot me first before you go.

Sis, look ...

Respect to GENERAL NAGA BONAR.

Naga, where are you going?

- I got something to do, Mak.

- Don't forget to buy me some betel leaves.

- The ones brought by Bujang

have already rotten - Okay, Mak.

I mean to flatter Kirana, but Bidah

was the one who flattered back at me.

She thought she has the same

level as me.

She didn't catch your drift.

An errand runner like her ...

... surely isn't worth a general.

But this is the first time I saw a general

ordered to buy some betel leaves.

Shut up.

Didn't you see Kirana grinned at me?

- Just tell me if you want her to be

arrested. - I'll tear ...

- ... your mouth apart then. - I'll be

dead then. What can I do?

You are a general yet

I am only a corporal.

Yes, yes ...

- Made in Switzerland.

- Right, General.

- ... you turn out to be a watch expert.

- Yes, yes ...

- Shall we begin now?

- Okay, Major. Please sit down, General.

Please, Major.

To determine the demarcation line,

please show us the location of ...

... your troops.

Yes, yes ...

There are so many birds in the sky ?

Here.

- General, you moved your hand very

quickly. - Sure. I am an artist.

What did he say?

He is an artist.

You are a poet?

- Oh I see. You are a dancer.

- Yes. Yes.

Yes, yes ... Major ...

Oh, dancer ?

Oh my God...

- So the major is having a headache?

- Yes, he is having a litle headache.

Please show us once again the location of ...

... your troops.

- Here.

- There? - Yes ...

- Parit Buntar? Impossible.

- Yes, yes.

Alright, Major.

No way, General.

There is where the kingdom troops are.

- And besides, there is a kitchen.

- Yes, many kitchen.

Yes, there is a kitchen of

the kingdom troops.

- Cook, cook ... - Yes, yes ...

Eat, eat ...

- No, no ... cook, cook ...

- Yes, eat.

General,

maybe you pointed at the wrong place.

Please show us one more time.

- Now ...

- It's Parit Buntar, Major.

- Sorry, General. We have to wait for

further instruction. - Yes.

Yes, yes ...

Now, General good day.

Yes. It's made in Switzerland.

The watch is really fine.

It has not even been sold here yet.

Keep the watch carefully.

That watch belonged to Major Slot.

- You mean the one you just talked to?

- Yes.

So you got a Major's watch, even though

you are only a corporal... - Major, Bang ?

Yes.

Uncle Daud is harvesting rice ...

Amboi ... While picking up pandanus flowers ...

Amboi ... Seri Langkat.

Amboi ... Seri Langkat.

Mister willing to go through the fire.

Amboi ...

Mister willing to go through the fire.

Amboi ...

- I don't care even if I have to get burnt out.

- I don't care even if I have to get burnt out.

Amboi ... Seri Langkat ...

Amboi ... Seri Langkat ...

Please be quiet.

Please be quiet.

This is important.

- We have to call a meeting again.

This is important. - There is nothing important.

Did you realize what you have done earlier?

We may be accused of fooling them during negotiation.

What will the world say?

- Fine.

- You have made the Major suffer from headache.

So what? Then why do you look so busy?

- It is a negotiation, Bang. Don't play with them.

- I'm not playing with them, Lukman.

The Ducth think they are smart

and we are stupid.

But Naga Bonar isn't stupid.

If I let them know where our troops are ...

... they are going to ask

where we put our mortar and 12.7.

They asked us so that they can determine

the demarcation line.

How stupid you are. If they know it ...

... just wait until they showered us with bombs

falling on our heads.

- And then all of us will die. You want that?

- It's okay if you don't want to inform them.

But why did you point at Parit Buntar,

while we all know that they have ...

- ... conquered that place?

- Why did they conquered that place?

That's Murat's grandmother's hometown.

Isn't that right, Murat?

- Right, Naga.

- It is not their hometown.

Why don't you tell Major...

Who is he ?

The watch.

Tell Major Watch ...

... that they mustn't live

in Murat's grandmother's hometown.

- Tell them to go home.

- That is right Bang ...

But at least you can point at villages

around us so that they can believe in us.

You can point at Tanjung Beringin,

for exampIe.

- Why did you point Parit Buntar ?

- The hell I know that, Lukman.

I never learnt to read maps anyway.

There is a little part of the map flaking off ...

... so I pointed at that part.

It turned out that I pointed at

their kitchen area.

It made him so confused.

Come on ...

I don't believe in the Dutch.

They keep asking us to negotiate,

but their NICA troops arrived here anyway.

- Barjo ...

- Yes, General ...

Put 12.7 at Simpang Empat Intersection.

Tell Lubis to set mortar

at Bukit Sagala...

...and assign Timang

with the gun troops at Dusun Padang.

When the Dutch troops come in,

Tell Lubis to hit the cliffs with mortar then

wait with the gun troops...

...then hit their asses from aside

with the machine guns.

Yes, General.

Hey, Bujang ...

smell me ...

- The fragrant soap "cap Burung Merak", Bang ?

- Of course ...

You toIl me to.

I've used it three times.

Now you do smell good like a general.

The scent spreads out until Medan.

The major looks as if he wanted

to eat the general's menu.

He really goes beyond the line.

Well, what can I say.

What can I say ...

I didn't even finish studying

under the bamboo tree.

He graduated from HBS.

(Hoobere Burger School)

Make him just a soldier.

Day by day I become a bit disgusted

at Lukman.

I told you.

You didn't tell me anything.

I wonder...

All he does is thinking ...

I was wondering what he was thinking about.

He became mad at me.

He said that the Dutch is already

in front of us and we have to think about that.

Think ... I assume he still even thinks

while sleeping.

But what I see is the Dutch still

stay in Parit Buntar.

Maybe Lukman is already

gone insane., Bang.

- Have you told Kirana I am coming
