Vlad Tepes Page #7

---

Go near His Highness. Guard him well!

See you soon, father!

I ordered the whole country to gather.

Why isn't the whole army here?

Some of the boyars did not obey your order.

They did not come with their flags.

The boyars again?

The country has gathered.

Children, old men, all who can hold a sword

have started to go to your camp.

King Matei also has left Buda with his army.

Yes, he left 6 weeks ago. And he is only halfway.

Don't fool yourself.

We'll never get help from nobody.

Then why did you send them?

Then why have you sent messengers?

So that nobody could ever say that they

were not aware of our needs and dangers

and for the country to understand

they can't wait for anything from anyone.

This isn't the first time

we must face the danger alone.

All troops pass till evening.

At dawn we move towards Targoviste. The march order - as usual.

Akincis should go after prey...

Akincis (raiders, light cavalry) should attack their prey

With no price not go further than.

- What do you want to tell me, Yafar?

- Let me join the soldiers. I am a warrior.

Very well, go. Take care not to be killed.

Rashid, go and see what's there.

Not a single drop of water. All fountains are poisoned.

What do you command?

In 2 days we have lost more than

The supplies are scarce.

The soldiers are hungry and thirsty.

Nobody should go far from the army.

Bring water from the Danube.

He is weaker than I thought...

if he thinks that he can stop me like that.

Time has come. Don't let them rest.

We must harass them.

Let's shake the faith

in their own strength.

Yunuss Bey and his soldiers. They have been hanging here for an year.

Let's give to the dead what is

appropriate for them.

"Yunus Bey, do you remember Vlad? My father's former hostage."

"I stayed around him, Master."

The trenches around their camp

get smaller and smaller.

So we can easily pass over them.

They are used to our harasses at night.

They hardly wake up,

they are less frightened.

We will attack them tomorrow night.

The opening of their camp

is facing the Danube.

The peak is facing Targoviste.

The regular army is here.

More than a half is there.

This is the most exhausted and hungry army.

They will run away after the first attack.

-We don't have enough strength.

-I know.

Mehmed also knows,

that is why he has this army of sorts.

We can't win.

Just do as I told you and we will win.

Stay.

What needs to be done I must do it by myself.

It's not a princely work,

but I have no choice.

Back off! Back off!

Here we go!

Hey, you! Get into the line!

Water! Water!

The water will be shared

at the tent of Adin Pasha.

Don't let them go near!

Water! Share it here!

Tomorrow at dawn we attack Targoviste

on 3 lines:
Durakan Bey to the right,

Aly Bey in the center, with 20,000 soldiers

the rest of the army

under your command, to the left.

Enlighten my mind Allah,

how can I guess his plan?

Help me to put the crescent on all

the churches in this country.

If we'll win,

I'm gonna build for you

a great mosque.

Just then, the dream of Islam

will be accomplished.

And praised be your name...

Hey you!

What is this?

An talisman. Do you want to buy it?

It's not expensive. And what is good for?

It protects you from the hits of the enemy.

No sh*t....

I have an talisman for sale.

The giaours have taken Turkish clothes

and killed the sultan!

- What is going on?

- The sultan's tent is on fire.

The giaours have taken Turkish clothes

and killed the sultan!

Run to the Danube! Run to the Danube!

Follow me!

Follow me!

Hit them, my brave men!

The giaours! The giaours!

Forward with all your strenght!

Follow me!

Stay!

Giaours....

Defend the sultan!

I faced death in Constantinople, Belgrade

and on all the battlefields of the Islam.

My heart was never afraid.

Last night I almost died like a dog,

during my sleep.

Stop them!

Mehmed is dead, I killed him myself.

They won't dare.

They won't ever dare.

Tear them apart!

Half of my army died here,

the other half is running to the Danube.

The ones who have left are wounded.

They're thirsty, hungry...

We are three hours away from Targoviste.

How can you take the country of a man who did so many special things?

And who knows how to use the power and his subjects.

Bury the dead. We'll return to Istanbul.

We atacked Snagov. The families

of Wallachian noblemen are in my hands.

- Where did you take them?

- In Braila, as you ordered.

- What about my gold?

- Wait!

Padishah, if you give me the army

from Braila, I will take the throne.

How can you win where I couldn't?

The boyars will be on my side,

I guarantee it with my head.

Try it.

Mehmed is alive!

I have seen him with my eyes.

Three thirds of Mehmed's army is dead. where nobody could have.

We won an impossible fight.

Great victory, Your Highness.

Wallachians, Mehmed King of Kings,

the light of the world, speaks to you:

"I don't want to spread my territories over your lands.

I want you to exile Vlad and devote

yourselves to Radu, his brother.

If you listen to me, my army will withdraw

beyond the Danube

and no hair will move on your heads.

So help me Allah the Almighty!"

Otherwise...

I will kill your women and children

and there will never be peace between us.

What are you waiting for, Your Highness?

Surrender.

Take your women and kids.

I will pretend to flee over the mountains.

Take Radu to Targoviste.

When you get there

I will return unexpectedly

And I will raise him on a stake

as never seen in Wallachia.

Stop the execution!

I have received a letter

from Radu The Beautiful.

What does he want?

He wants to give us back our old privileges

if we help him take the throne

and arrange for King Matyas to recognize him.

Against Vlad? Now that his victory over

Mehmed brought him prestige? This is crazy.

King Matthias won't want to hear about it.

Do you have a faithful servant, capable of everything and able to keep quiet?

What do I have to do?

Can you counterfeit the handwriting,

the seal and the signature?

Yes. But I can't like this.

Give me the letter to copy.

You don't have to copy.

- Imitate the handwriting.

- It's the same.

What do I have to write?

Emperor of emperors and master of masters,

great emir and great sultan

I, the Wallachian prince Vlad, your slave

I, Vlad, beg you to forgive my sinful deeds

against your power and empire.

I know well Transylvania and Hungary.

If your majesty would like

I could pay for my mistake

by giving you back Transylvania.

When it is in your hands you would

be able to easily subjugate Hungary.

My messengers will tell you more.

Copy the signature.

And the seal.

This is not an ordinary job.

I paid my debt doing it.

I think I deserve a reward.

Otto!

- Where do we go, Your Highness?

- To Matthias Corvinus.

He has arrived with his soldiers

beyond the mountains.

We must go and thank him

and beg him to return to Buda.

If Radu finds out that he has an army

at the borders he'll be frightened
