Episode 15
Japs must be investigating.
If we can find out that Cool Breeze Village did it
then Japs will also figure it out.
And considering the uproar in Yuezhou,
I’m afraid Japs might attack the village.
We must make efforts
to protect the Cool Breeze Village
against the Japs.
From now on,
keep an eye on the Japanese army,
and report any sign suspicious.
Yes.
May I come in?
Come in.
Ok. Let’s finish here.
Come here. Sit down.
Yu Xiao.
How is Yuan Liu?
He has a good recovery.
Do you know who I came upon in Yuezhou?
Weiguo Zhou.
How did you know it?
Isn't he there to visit Mr. Xu?
Yes, he is.
Mr. Xu asked him to join the Eighth Route Army.
He said he would consider it.
Oh.
That’s wonderful.
Thanks, Xiaoyu.
Have a good rest.
Ok.
Sir.
The plain-clothes team in Yuezhou
caught a wounded Chinese soldier.
What?
A wounded Chinese soldier.
Yes.
Good.
Bring him to Laiyang.
Yes, sir.
Dude, I know
you treat men in Cool Breeze Village
as your brothers.
Don’t be so upset.
Have a rest.
And then
we will go on fighting the Japs.
Master,
when shall we leave the village?
You must listen to me in this matter.
Weiguo,
take it easy.
We’ve won for many times.
But what if the Japs fight back?
How can we resist them?
We cannot afford to lose.
This I know.
But we have been here for a long time.
We cannot just leave it.
What about
giving me more time to think it over?
Master. Master.
What’s up?
A message from Youzhou says that
Weiguo's friend, Yuan Liu, was caught
and put into prison in Laiyang.
Let’s take the weapons and save him.
-Ok. -Let’s go. -Wait a minute.
What’s the matter?
Master, if we should be rash again,
we’ll lose all of our men.
Then, what shall we do?
Allow me some time.
We’ll save him tomorrow night.
Ok.
Saint of War,
you see second mastre's in danger,
and we've decided to save him tomorrow.
We pray for the success of rescue
and the safety of our men.
Kowtow.
Regimental Commander.
Stop.
Credential?
What’s up? Come on.
Move. Move.
Hurry up.
Dude.
Go.
Catch them.
Weiguo.
Bullets.
Weiguo, come here. Now.
Catch them.
Fuck.
Shit.
Fools.
You fools.
General, please calm down.
Pass my order.
Be ready to attack Hill Hutou.
Yes, sir.
Ok. You can go back.
Dude.
Why not come to Cool Breeze Village?
I have to go to Xuzhou on an errand.
You’re welcomed to join Eighth Route Army.
I have to settle things in the village
before considering it.
Anything peculiar in the village?
Nothing.
Then, I shall go.
Let's go back.
I thought you won’t come back.
I’m sorry.
I beg your pardon.
Don't.
Your pardon
I cannot accept.
Master.
Should you see me as your master,
you shouldn’t have gone alone
without telling us.
I did so because I didn’t want comrades
to take the risk.
Weiguo.
On learning the capture of your friend,
you went alone to save him.
But if you’d got an injury,
how would everyone think of our village?
how would everyone think of me?
I didn’t think about it.
I just deemed
it unworthy for comrades to risk their lives.
Shut up.
Weiguo Zhou.
You shouldn’t be in our small village.
Get out.
Master,
it is not safe in Cool Breeze Village.
Even if you’ve asked me to leave,
I won’t go unless others leave here.
Get the hell out of here.
Sir.
What’s up?
The last attack was launched by
bandits in Cool Breeze Village.
What?
Cool Breeze Village?
Bandits?
Yes.
A new master just came to the village
named Weiguo Zhou.
It is he who is in charge of the attack.
And Yamamoto Aoki
was killed by this man.
We intended to defeat the Chinese.
But now, even bandits
dare to challenge the Imperial Army.
Pass the order
to make battle plans
for destroying Cool Breeze Village.
We’ll kill the bandits and arrest Weiguo.
Yes.
My poor nephew,
I’ll revenge for you.
I will chop off the head of Weiguo
as your sacrifice.
Lai.
-Lai. -Here.
Master.
Prepare some food for Weiguo.
Yes.
Wait a minute.
Tell comrades to pack up and leave the village.
Yes, sir.
Master.
Japs. Japs. Japs.
Master, we are attacked by Japs.
What?
Japs.
Let’s see what’s happening.
May I come in?
Yes, please.
Regimental Commander,
Japs have sent all main forces in Laiyang
to attack Cool Breeze Village.
Tell all battalion commanders
to assemble troops to rescue the village.
Yes, sir.
Comrades,
Cool Breeze Village
is an anti-Japanese force.
We shall not let it be destroyed.
We’ll try our best to save it from Japs.
Clear?
Clear.
-Ok. -Regimental Commander.
Regimental Commander.
Yi Chen.
Why are you here?
Commander, I heard of the rescue operation.
May I join in?
No.
Commander,
I am responsible for building the united front.
It was because of my mistakes
that Cool Breeze Village is now in danger.
As to the rescue operation,
I hope I can make a contribution.
Ok. Join us.
Yes, sir.
Now.
Turn right.
Set out.
Sir, within half an hour,
our army will get to Cool Breeze Village.
We shall destroy the village
and make our revenge.
Good.
Get all forces
to be ready for the battle.
We'll kill all the bandits.
Whoever gets his defense breached
will recieve his punishment.
Yes, sir.
And
about Weiguo Zhou.
Capture him alive.
It seems that
Japs want to destroy us.
We must fight tooth and nail.
Yes. We’ll fight them
Comrades,
now that Japs are attacking us,
we must try our best to fight back,
or we are no heroes.
Kill as many Japs as you can.
The more, the better.
Comrades, are you scared?
No.
All right, take your weapons!
Wait a minute.
What are you doing?
I wanna save you.
Weiguo, there is no way to escape.
Master, do you trust me?
You’re the second master.
Of course, I believe in you.
Ok. I promise
I will get comrades out alive.
Shoutian.
Here.
Explode all the remaining bombs with Huzi.
Ok.
Now, everyone should dress up as a Jap.
Hurry up.
Dude.
What's it all about?
Master.
It’s yours.
Master.
Weiguo.
All bombs have been exploded.
What the fuck.
Master,
it makes me upset.
Fighting the Japs
makes us lose our home.
Shut up.
Listen to Weiguo.
Let’s go.
Be quiet. Keep going.
Which troop are you from?
It is Miura Detachment. And you?
It is Kawaguchi Detachment.
We're responsible for searching the enemy.
The enemy is heading towards the south.
Chase them in that direction.
Ok. Thanks.
Come on.
Sir, search completed.
Not a single bandit has been found.
Shit.
Chase them.
Capture Weiguo Zhou.
Yes, sir.
Fuck.
Brothers, take off the clothes.
Oh, I feel much better now.
Japs’ clothes suck.
We owe much to Weiguo.
As the old saying goes, it is an escape…
Master. It is an escape as crafty as
a cicada casting off its skin.
Comrades. Hurry up.
Japs are chasing us.
Yes.
Move.
Take cover.
Hurry up.
Come on. Hide away. Be careful.
Withdraw.
Darling.
Master.
-Darling -Brother -Darling
-Master -Let me go -Brother
Let me go.
Darling.
Go.
Let’s catch them.
Brother.
Wu Li.
-Brother -Wu Li
Go. Master.
A family origin in Hancheng County, Shaanxi.
Finally, we've come out.
Weiguo, where shall we go?
Master.
Qifengkou, Hill Heishan, Niangjia Ridge
All these places are occupied by Japs.
So we can only go that way.
Dude,
Mount Savage is over there.
What’s your plan?
Go into the mountain area.
No, we cannot.
In Mount Savage, there is miasma, bog,
and beasts. How can we make it?
Now, we have no choice but to go there.
Huzi, lead the way.
Ok.
Brothers. We’ll follow Weiguo. Let’s go.
Go.
Dalong.
Take cover. Come on.
Regiment Commander, we are late.
Cool Breeze Village has been captured.
The attack involved over a thousand Japs
and a large puppet army.
Cool Breeze Village is closely surrounded
that no one could break in.
Are you sure?
Yeah.
Regiment Commander, look over there.
Commander, shall we fight or not?
Mr. Qiu,
it seems that we are indeed late.
Mr. Qiu.
Withdraw.
Comrades, withdraw.
Withdraw.
Xiaoyu.
Commander.
Squat down. Take cover.
Commander, we cannot just withdraw
leaving the village in danger.
Withdraw. Withdraw.
-Commander. Commander. -Xiaoyu.
Move.
Commissar, listen to me.
Although the village was stormed,
there must be some people alive.
We have to save these people.
But Xiaoyu, as you can see,
Japs are in the mop up phase.
Withdraw. Withdraw.
Commissar. Ms. Chen.
Let’ go. Xiaoyu.
Hurry up. Withdraw. Withdraw.
Hurry up.
Let’s go.
Go.
Sir.
Sir,
the body of Weiguo was not found.
Fuck.
Search again.
Weiguo Zhou.
If he's live, bring him; Dead, bring his corpse.
Yes, sir.
Sir, the second detachment reported
there’re many footprints on back of the hill.
Some people must have escaped from there.
What? On back of the hill?
Yes.
Map.
Sir, I think
they must be heading to Mount Savage.
Mount Savage.
Yes, sir. You see
there are dense forest.
Once they set foot on Mount Savage,
it’ll be very difficult to find them.
Pass my order
the third detachment
will block the way to Mount Savage.
No bandit shall be allowed to go uphill.
Without the shelter of a mountain,
bandits will be no bandits.
Yes, sir.
Master. Master.
Japs are coming.
Be alarmed. Don’t panic.
How many Japs are there?
I don't know. They’re screened by dense forest.
Maybe, there’re dozens of them.
These Japs
must be tracing us by footprints.
Master, what shall we do?
There’s no way to go. Let’s fight them.
Listen to Weiguo.
Master, we have so few people and bullets
that we cannot beat the Japs.
Weiguo, if we continue running,
Japs will catch up with us sooner or later.
Yeah.
Ahead are barren mountains.
We have no choice but to fight.
I said we cannot.
Oh. I have an idea. Come with me.
Move. Move. Move.
Master, everything’s ready.
Let's go.
Ok. Go.
You guys, come with me.
Shall we? No, wait a second.
Attack.
Ambush! Take cover.
Smash them to death.
Attack.
Forward.
Come on.
Forward.
Come on.
Japs.
Brothers, check if there is anyone alive.
Take the arms and ammunition. Let’s go.
Withdraw.
Sir, it’s reported from Mt. Savage
that a group of the 2nd detachment
were found dead.
What?
There.
So the bandits are in Mount Savage.
Mountain troops shall concentrate
on this area.
Yes, sir.
Ask plain-clothes team
to disguise as hunters
and search this region carefully.
Yes, sir.
Oh, I see.
Xiaoyu.
Have a drink.
