A blind charge, to destroy their artillery

A battle of ruthlessness

Comrades

Tell him, who is the fiercest?

We're the fiercest!

Our armies are separated by 300 paces

Their guns have a range of 200 paces

Arrows have a range of 100 paces

We need 200 men in the frontline to charge

Followed by 200 archers

When they fire, don't stop. Continue the charge

Follow it through to the end

To let the archers gain that 100 paces

Many men will die

I'll go!

Who will go with me?

The families for those who go will be paid extra

Those who die, 2 pieces, those who live 3 pieces!

Go make your fortunes

[?]

Come

Damn it, I'll go!

Me too!

Include me, I'll go ...

Me too ...

I'll go ... Me too ...

Defeat SongCheng!

Seize gold, seize food, seize land!

Defeat SongCheng!

Seize gold, seize food, seize land!

[?], the victor has already been decided

We are merciful, surrender and we will spare your lives

Kill!

Fire!

Kill!

Fire!

Fire!

Fire!

Kill!

They're almost all dead, why aren't we going yet?

Don't you ever forget

On the battlefield, there can only be one commander

Kill!

Release the arrows!

Release!

Brother!

Brother!

Brother!

Ready!

Blindfold the horses

Charge!

Save Big Brother!

Big Brother!

Don't pull it out!

Hold steady

We're really going to die here!

We made a blood oath

We pray not to be born together, but to die together!

Well said

Even in death we need to take something with us

Everyone we kill counts!

Charge out!

Kill!

Insane!

Those 800 men have thrown 5000 soldiers into chaos

We can fight!

We desperately need this victory!

On me! Charge!

WuYang!

Lord Li

Pang ChingYun can be considered a blessing

Pang ChingYun, it seems we have a destiny together

Seems you've found yourself a treasure there

With the SongCheng battle, you've made name for yourself

Pang ChingYun

I'll put another 5 battalions under your command.

How about it?

[?] It's like adding flowers to a bouquet

-Lun DaShan

-Present

From now you are responsible for transferring funds

Thank you, Sir

Pang ChingYun

There's an old friend from the Kui Army waiting for you

He Kui

Present

My Lord

General Pang

Long time no see

As you already know each other,

you should continue to cooperate together

You conquer the cities, and he'll defend them

With him here, how'll we split it?

Lord Li

Lord Chen

I trust you're agreeable with this?

I'm scared that he'll be too slow to keep up

First we'll take SuZhou, then Nanjing

How about it?

What are they laughing at?

Nanjing is the enemies heart

To break Nanjing, you must take SuZhou first

If the war ends, they have nothing to gain

They won't let us fight SuZhou

Can they do anything if we do go and fight?

Inserting the Kui Army

was so that they could keep an eye on us

Come quick, they're back!

XiaoWu

XiaoWu ....

XiaoWu's shoes ....

XiaoWu ...

XiaoQi

XiaoQi, my son!

We were no longer bandits

He said, that bandits only kill for their own

But we, were risking ourselves for others

I'm willing to be this kind of person

You've lost weight

Big Brother said, that this time we'll be back in 3 years

I know that you don't like it here

Once I'm done fighting, I'll take you somewhere nice to spend our days

Where's Big Brother?

He's just outside the village

He said that he won't come in

We set out early tomorrow morning

Remember

All's fair in war

Begin!

Kill!

We're here to take over defense of the city

And let our comrades indulge themselves for 3 days

Seize money, seize food, seize land!

Come out, the battle is over

Come out

Come on out

Don't be afraid

You haven't eaten, right?

Are you hungry?

What are you doing? Miss!

Are you going to watch?

GouZi, I'm leaving

Brother Pang

Move!

What is it?

Why are you holding me?

Move!

What is it?

Harming the innocent, will be punished on the spot!

Brother ErHu!

Big Brother, what happened?

Rape of a girl

Looting the city for 3 days, these are the rules

From today, this sort of thing cannot occur in our ranks

We've always done this

We were bandits, now we're soldiers

If we don't change, we won't accomplish anything

If we continue to do this

We'll be just like those Kui Army bastards

Rules must start somewhere. That day is now

We've just finished killing their family members

Now that we're here

You want protect them?

Who will fight for you in the future?

Big Brother

Listen to me

Look at them

They get it

You don't need to kill them, right?

What are you doing?

Hurry up an admit your mistake!

Big Brother, we were wrong. We won't do it again!

Big Brother, we were wrong. We won't do it again!

GouZi

I can't hear you, say it again!

GouZi, quick, admit you were wrong! Quick!

Say it!

Say it GouZi! Big Brother, we were wrong!

Big Brother

They know they were wrong, let them off

In the past, when I was an official

I saw a merchant on the street

Hold down a poor person, and give him a beating

Until his body was covered in wounds and bleeding

Without any reason

Just because he was poor

And this poor person, didn't utter a thing

As if it was all completely right and justified

From that day on, I promised

If I was in charge, these things must never happen

The army is there so that people do not get threatened

I'm telling you, not being threatened by others

Does not allow you to threaten the commoners yourself

Do you know, in doing so, you ruin my heart's ambition?

At that moment, we were moved

Afterwards I found out

It was all a lie

That was the start of his change

Stop

Is it your place to kill my men?

Get lost!

Big Brother

Let them be

Who do your lives belong to?

Who's are they?

Big Brother's

Big Brother, we'll never do it again!

Close your eyes

It will be fast

I always thought

People are killed only in wars and looting

Now I know

Even when doing good, people need to be killed

I promise that I'll finish this war quickly

We'll take SuZhou in 3 months

Oh

GuZi

Why are you the same as Pang ChingYun?

[?]

Wanting to take SuZhou with a few thousand men

He doesn't know his limits!

I'm just looking out for ChenGong

If you kill the roots, there's no grain

You're dead

Victory and defeat exists on a knife edge

If I go here

And it connects

Pang ChingYun will rise to the top in one fell swoop

At that time

And you think I'll let Pang ChingYun connect?

Pawns

Are useful to everyone

[SuZhou City - One year later]

SuZhou City has become a death trap

Those who attack it die

The Kui Army just waits outside

How long are you going to gamble for?

I heard

I heard there's a God

Who at noon, gives everyone in SuZhou named Huang,

And just randomly dividing it out

Lets over 5000 people fill their stomachs

No matter how they divide it up, it never ends

Pig

[?] Arrives every day

Sit down

Sit down

What if I go into the city and kill General Huang?

Those who go never come back

I don't need you to sacrifice yourselves

I'll go find Li Gong

Get provisions, and cannons

Our battle at SuZhou, is already against military orders
