Why did you respond to Changpingjun's invitation?
You were so fervently against leading the Qin Army before,
what brought on this change of heart?
Were you surprised?
Of course!
What caused you to want to fight, Wang Qi?!
It's Mayang.
I see...
So that was why...
Mayang was...
the place where you, Great General Liao, and I
took a castle from Zhao.
And...
the place where Liao was defeated.
That was a nightmare.
To think that Liao could ever be beaten...
Pang Nuan...
Who was that man?
No, never mind.
We don't need to talk about a dead man...
But are you saying that you refuse to hand over Mayang as it is the place Liao died?
Well, something like that.
Changwenjun, I've been thinking I should perhaps soon bid farewell
to my self that was one of the Six Great Generals under King Zhao.
In order to settle this fight.
Settle?!
So you've finally decided to move forward, as well?
If I can. It's an expectation I have for myself.
Shi Huang Year 3, Month 3,
Supreme Commander of the State of Qin Army, Wang Qi departed.
Meanwhile, the soldiers heading to Mayang...
We'll now form Wu!
Wuchang, gather!
Aw, man!
They've already started forming Wu!
But Xin isn't even here yet!
That goddamn idiot!
Hey!
Is everybody here?!
The setting is before the common era,
in the State of Qin during the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period.
The nameless boy Xin met with the young King Zheng,
distinguished himself in war, and finally became a Hundred-Man General.
Among those events, the neighboring State of Zhao suddenly invaded,
presenting an unprecedented crisis.
What kind of war will Supreme Commander Wang Qi wage?
And what kind of growth with Xin achieve?

But are you sure about this? Going on our own to see the battlefield?
It'll be fine.
I got Teacher's permission.
That's the authorization of the State of Qin Commander-in-Chief.
State of Qin Commander-in-Chief?!
A-Are you saying that your teacher is...
Yes. One of Chancellor Lü Buwei's Four Pillars,
Changpingjun.
Th-Then, he's on the side of Zheng's enemies...
Don't worry.
The relationship between the king and the chancellor is totally unrelated to me.
I just want to see a battlefield and feel the wind there.
H-Hey, Meng Yi,
We'll win, right? This war?
We won't know unless we actually see the war.
But... I do hope we do.
Xin...
I'll say this first! This unit is no ordinary Hundred-Man Unit!
It's a Special Hundred-Man Unit!
S-Special Hundred-Man Unit?
That's right!
We're not attached to any large battalion,
I heard from General Wang Qi himself that we're a special unit working directly under him!
Having said that, what exactly is a Special Unit, you may ask?
What our unit will be doing, even I don't know!
But I can say this!
The fact that the general has classified this unit differently from the others
means that we will see a more important battlefield than the others!
We may be sent to assault someplace really huge!
But in return...
the distinguishment we'll receive will undoubtedly be gigantic!
The majority of this unit is made up of the stalwarts that survived the Shegan Plain!
If we combine our strengths, we can stand against any enemy!
Got that, guys?!
We'll crush that Zhao Army that carelessly strolled in here in an attempt to attack us
and get our hands
on even greater glory
than in the war with Wei!
Lord Xin really is something.
In his first speech, he immediately captured everyone's hearts!
Awesome! Is that guy really Xin?!
What's going on here?!
Xin... You...
That kid, something must've happened to him in these past six months.
Yeah.
Moving on, I've been allowed to assign two vice generals to this unit!
The first is Mr. Yuan!
Greetings!
And the other vice general?!
Yeah... It looks like he's not here yet.
Don't worry!
Even if he doesn't come, this unit is strong!

For General Wang Qi,
the journey from Xiangyang to Mayang would take 15 days.
Meanwhile, Xin and his group marched from a location that would take 9 more days to reach Mayang.

Ow! What was that?
What're you grinning about alone in the middle of the night?
Hey, I wasn't grinning.
Don't play dumb.
I knew you'd be excited about being a Hundred-Man General.
Of course I am.
Being a captain that leads a hundred people...
And to think, a year ago, you were Li Dian's servant and were called the stupidest guy in the village.
But now you're leading the guys from that village.
This really is incredible.
You didn't need that "stupid" part!
What's more, Wei Ping was the stupidest in the village!
But, I'm happy for you, too.
It's true.
Somebody from our wretched lot in that country village
actually became a Hundred-Man General.
Even Big Brother was boasting like crazy to the guys in the neighboring village.
"One of my followers became a Hundred-Man General".
That bastard. Who the hell's a follower?!
You've finally taken your first step to being a great general.
Just don't get so full you yourself, sometimes you go too far.
Yeah. I'll handle it.
But as they got closer to Mayang,
information about the Zhao Army started to spread through the group of the foot soldiers.
Did you hear? About the Zhao Army?
Yeah. I heard they gathered together the people from a castle they took and killed them all.
I heard they killed every last person, down to the elderly, the women, and the infants!
They went that far...?
Hey, are we gonna be fighting those guys to the death?
This is bad! Lord Xin, their morale is dropping!
In this state, they can't win any sort of battle...
What're they scared of?
Listen up, you guys!
We're about to face those Zhao guys!
We're going to scatter the Zhao Army,
and when they're surrounded and waiting for reinforcements,
we'll release Mayang from their control!
Got that?!
These guys...
What is this sound?
H-Hey!
L-Look behind us!
What is it? What's going on?
All units...
forward!
A-Awesome!
He did this with one sentence?!
General Wang Qi really is great!
With the Wang Qi's at the front, the State of Qin Army's spirits are raised...
but that night, disquieting information was leaked to the capital, Xiangyang.
State of Qin Xiangyang
Report!
We've finally learned who the Supreme Commander of the Zhao Army is!
Who is it? Speak.
Yes, sir! Someone called Pang Nuan!
Pang Nuan...?
I've never heard of him. Who is he?
What's wrong, Changwenjun?
P-Pang Nuan?!
Impossible... It can't be!
He's dead!
He was killed nine years ago by Wang Qi...
Zhao Army Supreme Commander
Pang Nuan
Wang Qi...
Qiang Lei
You finish what you had to do?
No. My enemy moved from Wei to Zhao.
So you joined the war again in order to go to Zhao, huh?
Yes, that's right.
Okay! Now my Hundred-Man Unit is complete!
Glad to have you with us, Qiang Lei.
Lu Sui...
Lu Sui is getting impatient.
This is going to be a brutal battle.
You'll get just what you want.
Well, now that you've got your sword drawn, why don't you show me that thing?
I wanna learn that "tontontaan" thingy, too.
You're as huge a fool as always.
Wh-What?!
The Chi You... turns the power of maiden mediums that appeases malevolent gods into fighting techniques.
We dance in an ecstasy and cut apart the enemies around us.
They are secret techniques that makes gods descend at our will.
They are not something that others can imitate.
G-Gods?
I don't really get it, but isn't it a little unfair only you guys can use it?
Making gods your allies and stuff.
It's not just the Chi You.
Also... there are more fearsome ones.
Ones that do not simply bring down the malevolent gods,
they dwell within their bodies from the start.
Within... their bodies?
They are the ones we call the War Gods.
War Gods?
Pang Nuan killed Liao of the Six Great Generals?
I had heard that Great General Liao perished by succumbing to illness,
is that incorrect, Changwenjun?
The illness was a story Wang Qi and I created.
Liao was killed by Pang Nuan.
That is the truth.
So he is quite a military commander,
that one called Pang Nuan.
He is not a military commander.
What?
I know very little about that man, but this much I can say for certain...
He is, by no means, the sort of person to lead people like a military general!
That man is a complete army himself.
No, he is more...
To a repulsive degree, he is a pure manifestation of "war" itself...!
Nine years ago
that man appeared in the middle of a Qin Army of 100,000 soldiers,
completely alone.
Hey, stop!
This is a Great General's camp!
Stop right there and state what group you're attached to!
Everyone, take your positions!
So you're saying that on his own
that man broke through the formation protecting the Supreme Commander?
That is impossible.
Breaking through an army alone...?
But it did indeed happen.
Pang Nuan broke through everything on his own,
ambushed Liao, and killed him.
So what happened to Pang Nuan after that?
He was cut down by Wang Qi, who had flew at him in a rage.
That was the first and last time I saw Wang Qi so swept into a passionate fury...
Wang Qi cut down Pang Nuan...
But Pang Nuan, whom was thought to be dead, is alive.
And now those two are likely to meet each other again
as leaders of the two opposing armies.
This is a bit more than we expected.
Most likely, Wang Qi knew about this from the beginning.
That is why he accepted to be the Supreme Commander of the State of Qin Army.
This war is a battle that was deeply ingrained in the destinies of the two of them nine years ago!
Wang Qi is sure to have many comrades he lost in war...
but why has he only now moved?
Because they were fellow members of the Six Great Generals?
No, perhaps Liao was someone special to Wang Qi...?
There is one point I do not understand.
You say that nine years ago, Pang Nuan attacked Liao's troops alone,
but what was his goal?
No matter how powerful Pang Nuan is,
those actions seem considerably reckless for a Zhao Army strategy.
That had nothing to do with the Zhao Army.
What? What do you mean?
Pang Nuan did not do that as a Zhao Army soldier,
he attacked Liao for his own, personal reasons.
A grudge?
Not exactly.
How can you say for sure?
Because I heard it from the man himself.
Soldiers, armies, Zhao, Qin,
they are all inconsequential, mere trifles.
There are only two people on this land that make even heaven and earth tremble.
Me, and one other...
Even if it causes heaven and earth to be destroyed, I cannot allow that!
I am War God Pang Nuan!
Show yourself, my enemy!
What does that mean? I have no idea...
That man is completely insane!
It's true, he was abnormal.
But that's the kind of man Pang Nuan is!
I see. He sounds like an interesting fellow.
But as Changwenjun said earlier,
he does not seem like the kind of man that leads people.
After all this time, why would he now have become the Zhao Army's Supreme Commander?
Wang Qi...
Could it be... that so he could kill Wang Qi...?
I think it's well worth considering.
Hey! There it is!
Hey, guys! It's Mayang!
Send a soldier to get reinforcements!
At this rate...
Hey, look!
There! That's...
Yes! Reinforcements!
Diao, hurry!
Where in the world are we?!
Good, we made it in time!
Awesome!
I can see the whole battlefield!
The two armies have started to arrange formations!
All units...
advance to the right.
Advance right!
Leave no openings!
Stand close by neighboring Wu!
( Flag - Zhao )
All units, spread into a line formation!
With the calm flowing, there is a moment of quietness...
Each one's emotions overlap with their lives, and they blend together.
Wang Qi and Pang Nuan.
After nine years of time, these two have confronted each other once again.
Is what dwells in their hearts hatred? Ambition? Or perhaps...
The fated battle now begins.
