Saving General Yang Page #3

This is too hard

on you, my sons.

You shouldn't have come to

rescue this useless old man!

Father.. you mustn't

vex yourself.

We still have a ways

to travel tomorrow.

Rest now. We've be home soon.

Lie down, Father.

I'm not worried about

your abilities,

only the complexity

of the situation.

The enemy you face has a

personal feud against you.

And your so-called ally

is a scheming rival.

Betel nut isn't good for you.

You need to cut down.

I need its strength right now.

Third Brother..

Stop!

Who goes there?

I am the seventh son of

General Yang, Yang Yansi.

I have come to see Lord Pan.

Open the gates.

Why didn't you send

reinforcements to help my father?

I don't know what

you're talking about.

You're a Khitan!

Lord Pan! You know me.

I am Yang Yansi, the seventh

son of the Yang Clan.

Lord Pan. I've come here not

expecting to leave alive.

I killed your son.

You can take my life now.

But send troops to

save my father!

You insolent Khitan! Our

empires are at war,

and you dare come here pretending

to be a son of the Yang Clan.

Get out of here!

Shoot!

Good!

Throw him in the river.

Yes, sir!

Father.

Are you looking for me, Yang Ye?

Why do you seek me?

Master Su Wu, have you

seen my son, Yang Yansi?

You mean your seventh son?

He's gone already.

Where did he go? Can

you take me to him?

Look at this, Yang Ye.

This old goat of mine!

He's lame as anything, but

still he keeps going.

He looks as if he's

been badly wounded.

I don't know how

he's still alive.

Alive? Not for long.

This old goat will die today.

Look. Do you know what this is?

Li Ling was defeated by

the Xiongnu, and then

betrayed the Han Empire by

defecting to the enemy.

Who would have erected a

monument to this traitor?

This temple is in Su Wu's name.

And this monument is for Li Ling.

Which do you want, Yang Ye?

Survival or integrity?

I am not worthy of this armor.

Your emperor is good to you.

No other would have sent troops

to rescue a defeated old man.

You must feel proud.

What will happen to

my sons if I die?

If the old goat stays alive,

the young goats cannot thrive.

It's time to put down

your sword and armor.

My Lady!

My Lady. The Eighth Prince

is here to see you!

Madam, Lord Pan has just

reported to the emperor.

He says the situation in

Huanzhou is too critical.

He has been unable to send

troops to rescue your husband.

Any news of him and my sons?

At present, nothing.

I thank you for coming,

Your Highness.

Then I shall leave you, Madam.

Paifeng. Please see

his Highness out.

Fifth Brother, quick,

save our father!

How could this happen?

Father!

I want to take Father home!

I want to take Father home!

Our mother is waiting for him.

Eldest Brother,

the Khitan have caught up.

Should we stay and fight?

No. We must take

Father back home.

They were just here.

How many?

Only five or six horses.

Eldest Brother!

Yelu Yuan has caught up with us.

He's got at least 80 top riders.

So fast!

We took such a difficult route,

I can't believe they've found us.

We fought through their

ranks on Wolf Mountain.

We can do it again now.

I will stay here.

You keep going.

Protect Sixth Brother and

make sure Father gets home.

I'll make sure I slow them down.

We're all brothers.

How can we leave you here alone?

I don't want any of us

to be sacrificed

bringing Father home.

Listen to me.

Father is dead.

And many more comrades

died on Wolf Mountain.

But Mother is waiting for us,

along with many other

people at home.

Don't worry. I'll

get out of here.

We'll meet at Yanmen Pass.

Eldest Brother can't

hold off 80 horsemen.

I will stay with him.

Third Brother, you take the

others to Yanmen Pass.

I will stay with Eldest Brother.

Go now, quickly!

Second Brother..

Mother gave this to me before we left.

It's from Master Guigu.

I promised Mother I'd Bring

my brothers safely back home.

Brother..

Protect them. Take

them home to Mother.

I understand now.

I'll see you at Yanmen Pass. Go!

My father died in battle.

I was proud of him.

And I've never

blamed your father.

But I can't let you live.

Can you understand, Yanping?

I can't forgive you for the

tears of my Mother shed.

They couldn't even find my Father's body.

She died of a broken heart.

I swore to kill your father

and all you brothers,

one by one.

I swore to make your mother

suffer a hundred times

more than mine.

Brother!

Brother!

Brother, I couldn't

let you go alone.

Dragon!

Third Brother!

You go on. I'll get fifth Brother.

We need to get Father home.

Fifth Brother.

Come.

We are Yang Yanhui and Yang Yande

of the Yang family. We need your help!

Give us your orders!

Didn't you say betel

nut was bad for you?

I need its strength now!

Grandfather, look. The wind

has changed direction.

Fifth Brother!

Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother,

give us back our clothes,

or we'll kill you!

Here you go!

He shot the horse, but not the rider.

What's this marksman trying to do?

It's a poisoned arrow! Father

was shot by an arrow like this.

I'm going to kill him!

Follow the signal towers and

you'll get to Yanmen Pass.

Take Father home!

Third Brother!

Father..

We're nearly home.

Are you the sixth

brother or the seventh?

Bring Father back!

You Yang boys are each

worse than the last.

The first five died

for me magnanimously.

Now it's your turn, and all

you can do is run away.

You can't take the

body with you.

I want your father to meet

the same fate as mine.

That was my promise to my other.

The promise I am carrying

is more weighty than yours!

I'm the sixth brother,

Yang Yanzhao.

You remember that.

Mother..

We have brought Father home.

Let us..

go home.

With the death of Yelu Yuan,

the Khitan army was left without a leader.

Empress Xiao had no choice

but to withdraw from Huanzhou

and rework her war plans.

The Song Empire enjoyed a

brief period of peace.

Although Lord Pan was not punished

for his treachery, his name has gone down

in infamy.

The bodies of the Yang Clan's eldest,

second, third, and seventh sons

were found and brought

home for burial.

But the bodies of the fourth and

fifth sons were never found.

The sixth son carried on the family's

mission to protect the nation.

He married his childhood

sweetheart, Princess Chai.

The story of the Yang Clan has

become legendary, eulogized to this day.

They have come to represent

the virtues of loyalty,

filial piety, benevolence,

and righteousness.
