The Taking of Tiger Mountain Page #5

---

no one can escape.

Listen,

put the map back immediately.

You should know.

Tiger Mountain isn't a place you can escape from.

Run now.

Before he discovers it, we'll be gone.

Can't leave now.

If you're not taking me away,

why did you mention Knotti?

Who are you?

You drank too much

I'm just Bro 9 of Tiger Mountain.

Cut the crap.

If I die,

you can't shirk the responsibility.

You two...

what responsibility?

As Bro 9,

you should tell if you're leaving.

Get out with your hands up.

Later, insist the map is on him.

Stand still.

Use your left hand

to give me your gun.

Who shot?

Lord Hawk, it's me

I saw your lady trying to elope with Bro 9.

So I fired to alert you.

Really?

Lord Hawk,

My conscience is clear.

Hang him up.

Tie him up.

Later, insist that the map is on him.

It's him

I saw him steal from Lord Hawk's house

I asked Bro 9 to help me catch him.

Now he's faking a counter-charge.

A thief accusing thieves.

You...

Lord Hawk.

Lord Hawk

I didn't, I swear I didn't.

Confess.

Lord Hawk, I really didn't

I kept an eye on your wife

to see if she'd be disloyal to you.

That's very kind of you.

Lord Hawk, this is a misunderstanding.

Is he a thief, or not?

Search him and find out.

Lord Hawk, if I've done anything wrong,

I'll shoot myself.

Search.

This...

This really... isn't mine.

Use your left hand, and give me your gun.

Lord Hawk, it really isn't mine.

- I'm being framed.

- Of course it isn't yours.

It's mine.

Lord Hawk, I'm being framed.

Big brother,

you brought him here.

Tell me...

what should be done?

Big brother.

Big brother.

Don't, Big brother.

Lord Hawk.

See you in the next life.

Whoops.

Missed the target.

Lord Hawk,

I'm Bro 4's guarantor

I should be punished.

No.

Forget it.

Now you owe me your life.

You can pay me back later.

Lord Hawk.

Lord Hawk.

Thank you, Lord Hawk.

Lord Hawk.

How about Bro 9?

- What's that?

- Again.

What's that?

- Come on.

- Don't move.

- Grab the tile.

- Don't blame it on me.

- It's all your fault.

- My fault?

I haven't won all night.

What tile did you give out?

My turn

I win, Royal Flush, 148 points.

- Pay up, everybody pay up.

- All the same suit.

- Pay up.

- Paying.

- Lend me some money.

- No.

Bro 6, no way.

Bro 6, no way.

You bastard, listen up.

Loaning money to me is an honor, get it?

Can't pay your losses?

Then don't play.

It's enough.

The village spies've been silent.

Lord Hawk.

Big brother,

the spies you sent

are either living in peace

or were killed by the PLA.

Tomorrow, take Bro 5, Bro 6

and 300 men downhill.

If PLA is really down there,

treat it as an exercise.

Before the snow seals off the mountain,

kill the sheep and come back for New Year.

Yes, Lord Hawk.

The bandits are coming.

The bandits are coming.

How many of them? How far away?

Over 200 men.

About 2 miles from the village.

Tank.

Order all the units to get ready for combat.

- Set up three defense lines.

- Yes.

- Detonator.

- Yes.

How about the Flying Thunder?

Can detonate at any time.

Gao, tell Yongqi

to gather the villagers.

- Keep a close eye on Luan.

- Yes.

Listen carefully,

move around when you fight,

so that the enemy can't figure out our numbers

Buddha of infinite light, please bless us.

Quit your racket.

No use praying.

If you attract the bandits here,

We'll all die.

Little Knotti, don't be afraid.

We hid in a hut like this last time.

They all died.

Everybody died

I don't wanna die.

- I wanna go home.

- Don't make a noise.

Don't worry, this time is different.

This time, we're here.

Fire.

Fire.

Damn it,

they have cannons.

Must be PLA's primary force.

Follow me.

Shut up

you bastard.

You won't be rescued.

Stop dreaming.

Shut up.

Charge.

Little Knotti, it's okay.

Knotti.

Knotti.

Little Knotti.

Leggy.

Leave the roof now.

Damn it.

Damn it.

Big brother.

Someone's firing from the tower.

- Load the gun.

- Yes.

Let me through.

Knotti.

Stay here.

Knotti's gone out, let me out.

Okay.

Be careful.

Get ready.

Wait.

Who's there 100 feet ahead?

They're in firing range.

The village chief.

Go away.

Go.

- Hongyi.

- Yes.

The west side has fallen.

You must hold on.

Yes.

Knotti.

No more in the cartridge, go get it.

Yes.

Little Knotti.

Stay here, don't move.

Hold on.

Give the bullets to Tank.

Give the bullets to Tank.

Knotti.

Brick.

Brick.

Brick.

He said to give Tank the bullets.

Knotti.

Knotti.

Ready for a match?

I'll go distract them.

Don't move or I'll shoot you.

Knotti.

Ammunition box.

Bro 6.

Big brother.

Bro 6.

Where is Bro 5?

Haven't seen him.

Guess he's fled.

Don't hesitate, Big brother

let's withdraw.

Withdraw.

Brick...

The others?

Auger, Xiaoliang.

Wheel and Steel Wrist

are all injured.

And...

Captain.

It's all my fault

I'm useless

I let that bastard Luan

slip away.

Leggy, let's chase.

Chase who?

Luan.

If we can't find Luan

Yang will be in danger.

Bro 9, look

your old pal is here.

Aren't you Brother Luan?

When did you come to Tiger Mountain?

It's you?

It's me.

Hu.

What's going on, brother?

Last month we're at Leather Creek

trying to decide which gang to join.

You dragged me to the PLA.

Only a short while later

you're wearing the PLA uniform.

Are you a regiment or battalion commander now?

Hu.

You've all been duped.

Lord Hawk

he's a PLA spy.

Bullshit.

You say our Bro 9

is a PLA spy.

Brother Luan

that's a vicious thing to say.

You called me a PLA spy.

Don't forget, it was you who asked me to join.

Now you're giving me this shitty unfair label.

Wanna lend Lord Hawk a knife to kill me.

- You're lying.

- Did the PLA send you?

Lord Hawk and all big brothers.

Let this bastard explain

how he knows I'm a PLA spy

and how he he's so familiar with the PLA.

You killed my brother at Leather Creek.

You stole my things.

Lord Hawk, the fur coat he's wearing

was originally my gift for you.

Luan

if you were captured by the PLA,

How'd you get back here so quickly?

Why are you wearing a PLA uniform?

Did the goddamned PLA send you to Tiger Mountain?

I'm wearing this to evade

the PLA spies.

Lord Hawk.

How many PLA soldiers are down there?

20, no-

Bullshit

30 men, equipped with cannons?

When did Leather Creek get cannons?

Lord Hawk

I think the PLA at least have

a regiment down there.

How else could they kill so many?

Lord Hawk, they really only have 30.

That means only

30 PLA soldiers

were able to reduce 300 of our men

to fewer than 50.

And killed Bro 5, too.

Bullshit.

Luan, it's damn strange that you're suddenly here.

Tell me why or I'll shoot you.

Say it.

Big brothers-

Today.

Today, every word I say is true

I swear to god.

Lord Hawk.

Lord Hawk.

To offer tribute, I offended this mad dog.

If I don't have my revenge, I'm less than a man.

Today, at Tiger Mountain

either he lives or I live.

If I'm a PLA spy

you can kill me right now.

Whether I'm an outsider or your man

you decide.

Lord Hawk
