Asin is moving quickly.
Why did he attack Seokhyeonseong and small fortresses instead of Gwanmiseong?
Don't you know the saying, 'kill a general's horse to kill the general'?
It's groundwork to attack Gwanmiseong.
That's right.
He's trying to isolate Gwanmiseong like we did.
He must have support.
Call a court meeting.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Let's go.
Asin.
Gungnaeseong court
Baekje attacked Goguryeo.
I didn't think Asin would stabilize Baekje this quickly and attack.
He hasn't stabilized Baekje.
He's trying to unify public opinion by winning in battle.
Yes, a battle is an effective way to unify the country in a short time.
That's right.
He will want to win for the sake of Baekje.
Khitan unified all the tribes and established Biryeoguk.
Houyan is supporting them.
Houyan will attack Yodong soon.
Goguryeo will have to fight Houyan, Khitan and Baekje.
We can't back down from any of them.
It will be hard to win if we divide our forces in two.
That's right.
We should focus on defending Gwanmiseong.
Won't that put Yodong in danger?
That's why I called for this meeting.
We have to defend Gwanmiseong and Yodong.
Prime minister, use all means possible and prepare.
Yes, Your Majesty.
I'm going to the envoy quarters to see Seol Doan.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Our relationship began at the slave camp.
Do you remember that?
Yes, Your Majesty.
We saved each other's lives at one time.
Yes, we did.
I want Goguryeo and Mohe to have a relationship like that.
Are you suggesting an alliance with Mohe?
Yes.
Do you still have ill feelings?
No.
I don't want to talk about the past.
What do you want?
Guarantee us that Mohe can have the position of a nation.
You are the chief of the Mohe.
Why would I try to have the Mohe submit to Goguryeo?
I understand.
I will trust you and return to Mohe.
I will wait for your call.
Seol Doan.
Yes, Your Majesty.
I expect cooperation from the Mohe.
Wiryeseong, capital of Baekje
Bu Yeohong.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Go to Hyeolgu and join Jin Mu's unit.
Our soldiers must land in Gyodongdo.
Can you do that?
Yes, Your Majesty.
Good.
As of now, you are a soldier of Baekje.
No matter what, you must get our soldiers in Gyodongdo and recover Gwanmiseong.
The fate of Baekje depends on this.
There's no time. Leave now.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Damdeok.
I'll get you.
Your Majesty, it's hard enough to try to defend against Baekje.
What should we do?
If we divide our battleground in two, there could be double the danger.
We have to achieve one victory as soon as possible.
You know well that Gwanmiseong is not an easy fortress to attack.
Yes, Your Majesty.
We could buy some time just defending the fortress.
But we won't last long if Baekje soldiers land in Gyodongdo.
That's right.
Asin knows Gwanmiseong better than anyone else.
Baekje soldiers must not land in Gyodongdo.
Is that understood?
Yes, Your Majesty.
Near Haeumsanseong
Mo Duru's office, Gwanmiseong General!
General, Baekje soldiers are coming.
What?
Baekje soldiers?
How dare they?
If the Baekje soldiers land in Gyodongdo and surround Gwanmiseong,
our reinforcements will be annihilated before they land.
We must not let the Baekje soldiers land in Gyodongdo.
They will be coming on ships. They will be weak against fire.
Have a fire arrow unit ready and assign ambush units.
Yes, sir.
We must defend Gwanmiseong even if it means our death.
Hurry!
Yes, sir!
Let's go!
Baekje soldiers, come on.
I'll show you how scary Goguryeo is.
Near Gyodongdo
Why don't they try to land?
Wait.
This is the only place they can land.
They'll come soon.
Be prepared.
Be prepared!
The enemy ships are moving.
Come on.
We'll take revenge for our soldiers who died.
Gal Samu.
Prepare the fire arrows.
No ship must be allowed to leave.
- Prepare the fire arrows! - Prepare the fire arrows.
It's raining.
We're in trouble! We can't use fire.
We must stop them no matter what!
It's impossible.
There are hundreds of ships.
We can't stop them without fire.
Things will be worse if they land in Gyodongdo.
But there's nothing we can do.
We have to retreat and defend the fortress.
Those Baekje soldiers!
Envoy quarters, Wiryeseong, Baekje
Baekje soldiers have landed in Gyodongdo and are ready to attack.
What is Houyan doing?
We will be leaving for Yodong soon.
Don't worry.
Yes, Your Majesty.
The emperor is leading everything.
The prince and general Fengba have control of surrounding nations.
You don't have to worry.
It's because you don't keep promises.
We already told you it was a misunderstanding.
If you don't keep your promise again, you will have to take responsibility.
Don't worry.
You will see the fall of Goguryeo.
Zhongsan, capital of Houyan
Your Majesty, we received news that Baekje started attacking Gwanmiseong.
Baekje did?
They're moving faster than I expected.
Are we prepared?
We can leave for battle whenever you give the order.
Khitan and Mohe are also ready.
We should attack Yodongseong as soon as possible.
Baekje is waiting for us to attack.
I'm worried about Biryeo.
They might behave rashly.
Fengba and Tianping will go and confirm their commitment.
Lead the Khitan to Yodong.
Yes, Your Majesty.
I'm going to command the army myself.
Goguryeo must fall.
We will leave in three days. Be prepared.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Gungnaeseong, capital of Goguryeo
Your Majesty!
Baekje soldiers landed in Gyodongdo.
What?
There's no meaning in sending reinforcements now.
Your Majesty, I know a way.
They have a military provisions storage here in Samsando.
They do?
Yes.
Asin was confident because of this storage.
It will be fatal to them if we can burn it down.
Exactly.
The location is a secret.
The Baekje soldiers won't know.
Give me the task of defending Gwanmiseong.
Sagal Hyeon and many soldiers lost their lives because of my strategy.
I owe it to them to defend Gwanmiseong.
I give you full command of the battle.
I will not allow a defeat.
I will defend Gwanmiseong no matter what.
Give me general Hae Mowol's central army and general Yeon Salta's Cheongun elites.
Okay.
Hae Mowol and Yeon Salta will follow Ha Muji's orders.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Gwanmiseong is in danger.
Be sure to defend it.
Yes, Your Majesty!
Asin.
General!
Mo Duru's office, Gwanmiseong
It's nothing.
It's just a little cut.
What is it?
The west gate is in danger.
We need more soldiers there.
I will go.
General.
How long do you think we can hold down the fortress?
Until we all die.
No matter how bad it is, we must defend this fortress.
Yes, sir!
Let's go.
Wiryeseong, capital of Baekje
Your Majesty!
How did it go?
Did they take Gwanmiseong?
Not yet, but the Goguryeo soldiers are having a hard time.
It won't be good to drag it on.
Tell them to take the fortress.
Yes, Your Majesty.
How about moving the military provisions from Samsando?
They will be moved by ship tomorrow.
Good.
Everything is going as planned.
After recovering Gwanmiseong, we will attack Goguryeo.
We'll recover our fortresses, then take Pyeongyangseong and Gungnaeseong.
You will achieve your plan.
How do you plan to have Cheongun infiltrate Samsando? Goguryeo command center near Gyodongdo
I have a ship prepared.
You can take this path between Gyodongdo and Hyeolgu.
Isn't that enemy ground?
It will be disguised as a Baekje messenger ship.
They will not know it is a Goguryeo ship.
That makes sense.
They will be able to see Samsando from Gyodongdo.
If there is a fire, their attention will be shifted there.
Let's get ready.
I have something else for you to do. Yeon Salta, take charge.
Yes, sir.
Haeumsanseong, Hyeolgu, Baekje
They sent reinforcements to Gyodongdo, but it's still heavily guarded.
It's higher and stronger than I thought.
General!
Messengers are going back and forth to Gyodongdo often.
We caught these men.
Good.
Where are they coming from?
They're from Wiryeseong.
Did they have a messenger ID?
Yes, sir.
We can open the gate by disguising as a messenger.
There aren't many soldiers defending the fortress.
It shouldn't be hard to take the fortress if you can get inside.
But it's too dangerous.
They will attack while the gate is being opened.
I will go.
No, it's too dangerous.
Any place is dangerous in battle.
Please send me.
There's no time.
This is a better strategy than everyone defending the fortress.
Stop!
I'm a messenger from Wiryeseong.
Open the gate.
Open the gate!
It's the enemy!
Attack!
Near Samsando, Baekje
It can be seen from Gyodongdo.
Most of the soldiers must have gone to Gwanmiseong.
There aren't many.
It's exactly as the military advisor said.
Get the fire arrows ready.
We could just attack.
No.
There's no need to take unnecessary risks.
Our duty is to show the storage on fire and confuse the Baekje soldiers.
Get ready.
Yes, sir.
One,
two,
fire!
Gyodongdo, Baekje camp
Isn't that Samsando?
Why is there a fire at our storage?
It must be a ploy by Goguryeo.
Send reinforcements now. We must protect our rations.
Yes, sir!
- Let's go! - Yes, sir!
Haeumsanseong, Hyeolgu, Baekje
Officer Wol! Officer Wol!
General Hae.
General Hae!
Light up a signal fire and let Baekje know that this place is in chaos.
Look, officer Wol is dead.
If you don't move now, there will be more sacrifices.
Was this the only strategy?
His Majesty ordered this strategy.
His Majesty?
Yes.
Signal a fire, so the Baekje soldiers at Gwanmiseong divert their attention here.
Yes, sir.
That is...
In such a short time?
What should we do?
All supply lines have been cut off.
We can't even last five days with the rations we have now.
We are at a disadvantage since we could be attacked from three directions.
We should retreat.
We can't do that.
If we stall and are attacked, we will be annihilated.
We can't retreat.
It takes a day and a half to reach here from Wiryeseong.
His Majesty will find a way to send reinforcements.
We must put up a fight until then and attack Gwanmiseong.
General.
We will find a way if we fight with everything we have.
Asin's office, Baekje
Your Majesty!
What is it?
Your Majesty.
Tell me.
Goguryeo attacked Hyeolgu and Samsando.
We lost most of our rations.
Haeumsanseong has been taken.
What?
How can this happen?
How did Goguryeo soldiers suddenly appear?
I'm sorry, Your Majesty.
Damdeok.
You're still getting in my way.
Prepare our forces.
I will retake Gwanmiseong myself.
Yes, Your Majesty!
Gungnaeseong palace, Goguryeo
General! General!
Where are you from?
We are messengers from Baegamseong.
Baegamseong?
What brings you here?
We're in trouble.
Baegamseong and other nearby fortresses have been taken.
What?
According to the messengers, Houyan and Khitan moved together.
We expected it, but we didn't expect them to move together.
I told you to be prepared.
How did our line of defense collapse so easily?
We are sorry, Your Majesty.
I should have sent a general to take command in the north.
Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
What is it?
Your Majesty, send me to Yodongseong.
I heard that Yodongseong is in danger.
Baekje won't give up easily either.
You must command everything from here.
You can't leave the palace.
But...
I'm not asking for the commander position again.
I just want to help in a time of danger.
I would be relieved if you went, but...
Houyan is going to attack Yodongseong soon.
I might be old, but I still have the energy to command a battle.
I have more experience in the north than anyone else.
I have a grudge against the Houyan emperor which I must resolve.
I must go to this battleground.
I tried to stop him, but I wasn't able to.
I would like to go with him.
You, too?
I'm a general, too.
Did you forget?
Your Majesty, I will also go with them.
I'm grateful you are willing to risk danger for our country.
Seol Doan has an alliance with us.
Use the Mohe.
The Mohe?
They can't be trusted.
I'm sure it will be hard to trust them from their past deeds.
But the Mohe chief is my friend. He saved my life at one time.
I'm going to trust them one last time.
Yes, Your Majesty.
We're ready.
I'm sorry I can't go with you.
It's alright.
Yodong is like a home to me.
I'm glad I'm going to defend it.
I only assigned elite soldiers from here to increase your speed.
I told the nearby fortresses to have soldiers ready.
They will join you.
Okay.
Support him well and defend Yodongseong.
Yes, Your Majesty
We will guard Yodongseong with our lives.
Good luck.
I will not return unless I defend Yodongseong.
Let's go.
What brings you here?
Where is father?
He just left for battle.
Why?
Oh, no.
He has a serious illness.
A serious illness?
After Jin died, he got a lung disease.
He's in no condition to fight a battle.
Why didn't you say so before?
He didn't want you to be worried.
Chang doesn't even know.
What should we do?
Should we stop him?
He had a firm resolution.
He won't listen even to you.
He has great pride as a warrior.
We must end the battle against Baekje soon.
Don't worry.
I will go to Yodong as soon as possible.
Biryeo camp, Houyan
The Khitan fight well.
Chief Batar.
Yes, Your Majesty.
I didn't think we'd take all those fortresses so quickly.
You're amazing.
Biryeo is no longer a weak country.
Why isn't there any news from the Mohe?
It will take two more days for them to arrive.
Do they have other intentions?
Of course not.
They know what will happen to them if they betray us.
We'll find out in two days.
If they betray us, we will punish them after this battle is over.
Yes, Your Majesty.
We only have Yodongseong left.
You all know it won't be taken easily.
I'm going to take it and repay Damdeok for all the humiliation.
Yes, Your Majesty!
Hurry!
Yodongseong
At a glance, there are over 100,000.
We neglected defense because of improved relations with Houyan.
We must defend Yodongseong no matter what.
I'm going to eliminate Murong Chui.
It's necessary for the future of Goguryeo.
Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
What is it?
General Ko Mu is at Yodongseong.
What?
General Ko Mu?
Yes, Your Majesty.
He knows Yodongseong too well.
This is bringing back the nightmare of our last battle.
This won't be an easy battle.
Ko Mu won't give up the fortress that easily.
There is a way to create confusion.
There is?
Yes, Your Majesty.
I stayed at Yodongseong often before.
I know the fortress well.
Good.
General!
General! General!
What is it?
The horses all collapsed. They can't stand.
What are you talking about?
Most of the horses have diarrhea and lost energy.
How were they managed?
I'm sorry.
Is there a problem with the hay?
There is no problem.
Check the well.
There must be a problem with the water.
We're in trouble.
We'll have to defend the fortress against all those soldiers.
We have no way of sending messengers for reinforcements.
Don't make a commotion. The soldiers will waver.
Ko Mu, it's been a long time.
I'm here to conquer Goguryeo.
Conquer Goguryeo?
You're here to die.
I will cut off your head this time.
