last round of ammunition.

I'll never agree to

your making peace.

If you really care about the Qing court,

do something useful, donate your riches.

Why don't you donate your

own money to the cause?

Yuan Shikai.

Empress Dowager,

as I had reported earlier,

we must have enough money

to support the army.

Yuan Shikai is indeed hard pressed.

You love to argue

all the time,

pretending to be loyal ministers.

Now

in times of crisis,

you've all become selfish.

The dynasty is destined to fall.

Your servant

will give up all of his possessions.

This is a time of crisis, I will lead

my entire family to protect the country.

Your servant

doesn't want a coffin,

nor does he care about his ancestral grave.

If money can help destroy the rebels,

then

I'll leave everything and

return to my home village.

The Four Nations Bank has

been persuaded by Sun,

I'm afraid we won't receive

a cent of this loan.

I know.

Heaven will punish.

Sun Wen for this.

Empress Dowager,

even though we run out of money, food,

and ammunition,

we still have for centuries

our loyal subjects.

I only have this to say:

I will die for the Qing Dynasty.

Sun Wen, your interference...

with the Four Nations Bank loan

has generated controversy in China.

This is the Prince Regents

order to assassinate you.

This one

looks more like

a portrait of the deceased.

I don't agree with you,

but I respect your courage.

I won't Kill you.

I want to persuade you.

Sun Wen, we are both past middle age.

Confucius said,

At 50, I knew my destiny.

He also said,

At 40, I am not deluded.

I've never wavered

from my beliefs.

I know Why you won't Kill me.

You're a father,

you know

the Qing court you serve

will eventually destroy your children.

We all want a strong and bright China

for our children.

Go,

I don't want to see you again.

Mr. Jordan,

you're the first guest in my new house.

Now that you've moved to Beijing,

we can see each other more often.

Yes.

I don't intend to leave the city this time.

How's the situation in the South?

Difficult.

Sun Wen and Huang Xing

are southern barbarians with big appetites.

You could have conquered Wuchang,

but you stopped.

We all knew

the Qing Dynasty has run out of money,

the end is near.

You want to profit from the power balance

between the Qing court and

the revolutionary army.

So now you want peace.

What do you think

of this balance between

my left and right hands?

Truth be told, I'm very impressed.

But the revolutionaries won't talk to me.

Now I understand.

Would you like us to extend a hand?

You...

We'll pave the way for you to negotiate

peace with the revolutionaries.

It's not good for anyone

if fighting continues.

What's most important now

is holding onto power.

Real power.

I'm looking for a collaborator

to protect the interests

of Britain in China.

Well, you've found him.

Military Governor, let me explain.

I sent Keqiang to Shanghai

because of the overall strategy

of the revolutionary movement.

I don't understand.

The Wuchang uprising attracted

the world's attention.

Isn't that also part of

the overall strategy?

Since we can attack Nanjing,

why can't we defend Wuchang'?

In Wuchang,

we're in a stalemate with the Beiyang Army.

Our trainee soliders

have suffered heavy casualties.

In Nanjing,

the enemy is weak.

Our plan is to attack Nanjing,

than retake Wuchang.

'That's our overall strategy.

This is the decision

made by the Tongmenghui.

I must abide by it.

Fine. Whatever you say.

But I won't go to Shanghai.

Please understand,

it hasn't been easy to

forge our paths together.

My home is here.

My power base is here.

Military Governor Li,

it appears we won't be sharing

the same path.

My child, don't move.

Don't move.

Lie down.

Listen,

if you want to live,

we must amputate your leg.

Can you hear me?

Alcohol.

It's fine.

Ready?

- Be brave.

- We begin now.

Listen to me.

Listen to me.

Stop.

Stop.

Come.

Take him away.

You've said it before.

So we failed.

Haven't we failed before?

I'm talking to you.

Idiot.

Mr. Sun,

telegram from England for you.

Okay,

here you are.

Thank you.

Mr. Sun,

I must inform you right away.

The Four Nations Bank decided to hold off

on the loan to the Qing government.

You once told me that.

Revolution is life,

not only living,

but fate.

I don't understand Revolution,

but I've struggled and fought, I was angry.

I also knew,

I'd end up as sacrifice

along with my father.

I wish your Revolution,

I'1O,

wish our Revolution,

every SUCCESS.

Yat-sen.

Yat-sen.

Keqiang.

Where are you?

Keqiang

I'm here.

Can you hear me?

I can.

Where are you?

Huang Keqiang.

Yat-sen.

I'm starboard.

Me too.

Keqiang.

At the Welcome ceremony,

you have to put on

the revolutionary army uniform.

Yes.

Yat-sen.

Binglin, you're all here.

Not in first class?

- No.

- Second class?

No.

Yat-sen.

It saved my life once.

Keqiang,

your hand.

Guangzhou uprising.

Doesn't matter.

Yat-sen.

Mr. Sun.

Dunchu.

You're here.

Yat-sen, we searched all

the way to the beam.

You're all here.

A hug.

Let's go.

Yat-sen, we waited so long for your return.

Shiping, you haven't aged a bit.

Mr. Sun,

after your ship departed from Europe,

on your journey back,

what thoughts came over you?

After 16 years of tribulations,

I've returned to my motherland.

Mr. Sun,

we hear you've returned

with huge donations,

ls that true?

I don't have any money.

All I bring is the Revolutionary spirit.

What is the ultimate

goal of the Revolution?

The goals of the Revolution are simple:

We overthrow imperial rule

and save our people.

Mr. Sun,

what did you tell

those bankers in Europe?

I told them,

it's the Chinese people

who'll steer the fate of China,

not foreigners

or Manchu royalty.

Mr. Sun, the north and south

are now negotiating peace.

What is your opinion?

My opinion is this:

We haven't reached our Revolutionary goal,

we won't negotiate.

Tie up them.

Our position is that

unless the Emperor abdicates,

there'll be no peace agreement.

Our position is that

the monarchical system cannot change.

This is a family dinner. Shaochuan,

you're part of the family.

Come, try this.

A specialty from home.

Lotus root with glutinous rice.

Come, sit.

General,

this is.

To thank you.

You put in so much effort

in the negotiations.

You've worked so hard.

Please tell me

what's on your mind.

You're the only one among Us

who knew Sun Wen.

I want to know more about.

Sun Wen.

What type of a man is he?

Zhang Shizhao said,

China will rise because of Sun,

he's the person

who'll revive the country.

Miyazaki considers Sun

a hero who will save China.

Kang Youwei claimed Sun is illiterate.

Wu Zhihui says that Sun

is a hardworking scholar.

Some say he's like Robin Hood,

an outlaw.

Some say he's a real scholar,

an itinerant doctor holding a scalpel.

Others call him

a good-for-nothing liar.

There are many versions.
