Episode 16
Xiaoyu, don’t cry
You think he is dead, right?
Well, he won’t.
The Japs can’t kill him
But, but you see that
The whole village is gone
Even regiment commander is desperate
If he is dead
He dead for killing the Japs
We should be proud
of this kind of friend we had
But, but I thought you said he won’t be dead
Xiaoyu, we must be strong
Don’t forget we are soldiers of 8th Route Army
I know, sister Yi Chen
Xiaoyu, don’t worry
He won’t be dead
He was born to kill the Japs
He will not be dead while
the Japs are still out there
Don’t worry. Believe me
I won’t lie to you
I’m OK
Sister Yi Chen
I want to go out for a while
Can you walk with me?
All right. Let’s go
Big brother, you okay?
I’m all right. Let’s go
Go
Brother

I have no idea, anything wrong?
Come on. Let’s go back
Stop there. Pass word
It’s me. Jie Zhao

Yeah, good as new. Where is the regiment commander
In his office, what's wrong?
The Japs is out tonight
Bring us there

Brother Zhou, they’re in trouble
What happened to Wen
The Japs took down the whole Cold Breeze Village
The man there are all…
All dead
What? Why you didn’t rescue them?
We did, our regiment commander take us there
But it’s too late
The Japs had thousands of soldiers out for them
They besieged the whole village
They set fire everywhere. We tried but…
Brother Zhou, I think he…
No, it’s not possible
If it’s other person maybe, but not Wen
I’ll go to see the regiment commander
Let’s go
Clerk Liu

Here, bottoms up
Our organization send me in
The Nanjing general infantry school,
I was exposed to the Jutong
And sentenced to death
I know that thing
But do you know how I breaking out?
Weiguo Zhou saved you?
Right, and this time I was caught in Yuezhou
They had me in the Laiying Military Police
Weiguo Zhou came alone
and saved me again
You were caught in Yuezhou?
You only know Weiguo Zhou is my good friend
But actually, he is my blood younger brother
He is really an excellent fighter
It’s why I can believe others’ death
But not Weiguo Zhou’s
Yuan Liu, what do you want exactly?
I want to borrow some men
- Borrow some men? – You heard me
Yuan Liu, you bastard
You think I would be afraid of the superiors
I’m telling you. If it’s for Weiguo Zhou
I can cross the line
Tell me. How many do you want
Just Jie Zhao’s platoon
I’m familiar with that one
All right. I’ll give you that platoon
Do you really believe he is not dead?
Yes. I believe it
Comrades, all of you including Jie Zhao
Will take orders from Shucheng Xu from now

But it’s full of monsters around the mount
With no people in there, no one will get in there
That’s right
If others dare not , he must be there for sure

Keep silence, follow my words
We will draw them to that way
Fellows, don’t be afraid

Report, commander
The enemy disappear from here
Search more carefully
We have searched the place, no sign of them
Map
Look
The second team
Was ambushed here
And our plainclothes team
Was fight with the enemy here
Our position is here
From this one to this one
See, it’s a mountain pass
I’m sure Weiguo Zhou will go through this place
In my command, the troops near the pass
Move here immediately
Block the pass here
Others, searching toward that area
Envelop them
Must envelop Weiguo Zhou’s force
And take them down
Yes, sir. March!
Dalong, anything new
from the scout?
Nothing yet
That’s wired, they’ve been out
for several days and nothing came up
Stop there, who’s that? Pass word!
Hanshan, come and help, Commissar Wu’s wounded
Yes, sir. Report it immediately. Yes, sir
Regiment commander, commissar Wu is wounded
Where’s him?
Already in the village
Mr. Wu. What happened?
Nothing serious
Just a little hole from the Japs
What happened exactly?
On the way back from the military subarea
We met the Japs
When we go through the Guanxi trail
And we have a fight
We were out numbered
So they took a little advantage
What about the others
We had two comrades dead
And my bodyguard was wounded
- Dalong – Yes
- Get the doc here – Yes, sir
Mr. Wu, let’s get inside
Wu. What did you say?
You met the Japs at the Guanxi trail?
Right. The Guanxi trail
I’m surprised
The Guanxi trail is so bleak
They have never been there before
Why did they go there?
Is there any possible that Weiguo is there?
Weiguo Zhou?
Yuan Liu came to me after you leave
He think Weiguo Zhou is still alive
He took a platoon out
To find him
It have been days after that
We still got nothing from there
Just now you told me
the Japs are in the Guanxi trail
They must found something there
Think about it,Wu
What’s next to the Guanxi trail?
You mean the Mount Savage?
Right, the Mount Savage
Regiment commander, the doc is here
All right, I know
Wu, think about it
Who will play with the Japs
In that old mount forest?
If it is not Yuan Liu, it must be Weiguo Zhou
It make sense
- Dalong - Yes
Tell all the scout
March to the Mount Savage
Find out what’s their purpose there
And inform the cavalry troop
Get ready
- Prepare for fight in any minute - Yes, sir.
I’m hungry. It have been three days
with no food. I can’t go any further.
I wish we have some meat
Zip your crow mouth
What do you know except eating? Hurry
Brother, is that your wound?
Do you want to rest for a minute?
I’ll find some food
Brother, I’m much more familiar with the field
I’ll do it
Brothers, have a rest
Rest on your position, stay alert
Brother Zhou, where’re you going?
To find some food for you guys
I just sew your wound, you can’t do that
Weiguo Zhou, try and I’ll stop you
Do you know how badly you wounded?
If the wound crack, you will die from infection
Here, let me see it
Let me open it for you
Is it hurt?
You can’t move, you know that?
I’ll gather some herbs and sterilize it
I’ll be right back, stay here
Promise me, you won’t go anywhere
I promise
You two, come with me
Brothers, be careful
Found it
We need this kind, find some plants like this
Second master
Brothers, time to eat
Take it, you okay?
Here, brother
How is that,okay?
Brother, how you doing?
Let me see
So much blood, look
I told you no touching
What’s wrong with you
Weiguo Zhou, didn’t I tell you to rest?
Why are you doing this?
You should take care of yourself
Brothers are all hungry
I’m all right
But you’re still wounded, here
It’s okay
- Let me see. – There’s no need. – let me
It’s nothing really
No fire
Put it off
I forgot
Why do we eat without fire
No fire
Just eat them
Really?
Comrades, it’s hard to begin it
But if you want to leave Mount savage
We had to eat it
I’ll eat first
Eat
Eat it, eat it
You need to eat
I don't eat raw food
Cover it yourself
Still nothing
We have so many Japs in that area
I don’t believe they go there for autumn outing
On my command, keep looking
Until we find Weiguo Zhou
Alive or dead
If it is necessary
Turn the whole Mount Savage upside down
Find them at any costs
Yes,sir
Big brother, after this woods, we’ll be safe
It’s so cold. So nice around the fire
What’s that?
Japs
Any ideas? Pull out?
He haven’t found us
We can go through them at this distance
- Huzi – Yes
- Recon in front – Yes,sir
Five on the left, no machine gun
Six on the right, one MG only
Shoutian, covering fire
Understand, go
Let’s go
Pull out
Nose count
Yes, nose count
Big brother, I had the brothers out
Big brother, big brother
Second master
What happened?
It’s too dark, big brother went lost
What did you say?
It’s too dark, big brother went lost
What happened?
Take you men
Send the casualties back first
Out master went lost, I need to go back
You can’t go now
We are out by luck
Now the Japs is on alert
If you go back, you will never come out
You’re my big brother, so is Ziming Zhu
My life is his
Brothers, grab your weapon
- We’re back for big brother. – All right
Brother Zhou
Jie Zhao, take some men
Sent the wounded to village Yang
Call the Regiment commander Qiu for help
What about you, Mr. Liu
Leave me, it’s an order
