Don't hurt my lord.
Shan Xiongxin.
Lord Qin will do anything to recruit talents.
The Tang camp is filled with your former brothers.
They're waiting for you to join them.
You don't miss them at all?
Come over to our side.
A turncoat's here to lecture me?
General Yuchi, stop!
General Shan.
My father was forced to wipe out Er Xian Zhuang,
let me kowtow to you to apologize.
Let the feud go and come over to Tang,
and work for prosperity with your brothers.
Save it!
Brother Tong, Wang Shichong's treacherous.
Why stand by him?
Indeed, just surrender.
Brother Tong, Sui lost its mandate and the country's been torn apart.
Fighting is rife and people are suffering.
Lord Qin cares about the people.
He's determined to restore peace and prosperity.
He's the savior of the people.
Brother Tong, look at the bigger picture.
Brothers, you can surrender all you want, that's none of my business.
But I'd rather die.
Brother Tong...
Now that I'm in your hands,
kill me as you please.
I can only avenge the lives of Er Xian Zhuang in my next life.
Come on.
Lord Qin, please spare his life.
Father, I deserve to be penalized.
I failed to capture Li Shimin, he slipped away.
Are you hurt? No.
You pursued him alone, it's good you managed to come back alive.
Take it easy, I know what to do.
Yuchi Gong, return my sister!
Or you'll die a horrid death.
Sister White, your sister has agreed to marry me. We're just missing you.
Marry me as well.
What nonsense! I know my sister,
she would never fall for a man like you.
A firecracker! Here I come...
Let go of me...
I like a tough girl...
Rascal, put me down!
Rascal, how dare you tie me up...
Put me down...
Alright.
Here we are.
How dare you tie me up...
Rascal, how dare you tie me up...
Sis... Sis?
Sis... Sis...
Good, now Tang has two lady generals,
and General Yuchi has two wives.
Congrats...
Thank you, Lord Qin.
I've decided to host a wedding feast for General Yuchi tonight.
Lord Qin, I'll do as you say.
Blackie, you're so lucky...
The fight for Luoyang will happen anytime.
If it's just about fighting, we have all the advantages.
But there is one problem.
That day, in the Royal Orchard,
Shan Xiongxin would rather die than surrender.
But there's no stopping heaven's will or the inevitable.
I'm worried Brother Qiong will stand up for Brother Tong
and make things difficult.
What do you have in mind?
The only option is to send Brother Qiong away.
Assign him to escort supplies to make things easy.
Good, do as you said.
Why?
Why am I being assigned to escort supplies at this time?
Lord Qin.
Counselor,
could you assign someone else?
No.
Or allow me to wait several days?
We've been stationing here for months, our supplies are running low.
We need you to go to Huguan to escort supplies back here.
Time is tight, please set out at once.
I don't know why,
I keep thinking of the past today.
When I was still a constable,
I was pursued by the Golden Snake Guards,
I was injured.
I made my way to Tiantang County,
but was ripped off by a fraudulent inn.
I was forced to sell my horse in public.
Were it not for Brother Tong,
I would have been long dead.
Then I was framed and thrown into jail.
Brother Tong pulled strings for me and got me out.
He got you out of plight after plight,
that's his contribution to Tang.
We'll always be grateful to him.
But the die is already cast,
the mandate is granted.
The people have spoken.
When we first raised our standard in Wagang,
it was to establish a benevolent reign,
and bring peace and prosperity to the people
Personal loyalty or the greater good,
more than anyone else, you know how to choose.
Lord Qin, you're a ruler that can bring peace to the land.
I'm honored I can be of service to you.
Now I'll do what I have to,
I just hope that you will not fail us,
that you will bring peace and prosperity to the land,
and happiness to the people.
Commanders, this fight for Luoyang is pivotal.
After Sui's overthrow,
this fight will decide the mandate of Tang.
If we win, then the land will be unified under Tang.
If we lose, Wang Shichong can hold on to his sphere of influence,
Unification will be pushed back indefinitely
That's why we must win!
Win...
March to Mount Jiasuo!
Luo Cheng, Lord Zheng has been kind to you,
but you betrayed him.
You should dismount and apologize to him.
Yet you have the nerve to be so cocky here.
You were once anti-Sui rebel leaders too.
But you only had your personal agenda in mind,
you couldn't care less about the people.
You only care about fulfilling your own ambitions.
Lord Tang is the only one who cares about the people.
That's why he has the mandate for a new reign.
I'm here to take your heads and put an end to warfare.
Good, bring it on!
Luo Cheng is not to be tackled alone.
Guys, let us fight him together!
Kill...
Come...escort me back to town...
Wang Shichong, don't flee.
Take into account that Shan Xiongxin is your brother, spare me.
I knew you were pathetic, drop dead!
Father...
How is it inside Luoyang?
I have to go back right away...
Luoyang
House of Prince Consort
How's Princess? Has she given birth?
Congrats. It's a boy.
Brother...
Brother, you alright? I'm fine.
Sister-in-law has given birth, it's a boy.
Milord, you're back at last.
Father...he died in battle.
Yingying, get a carriage ready,
get your sister-in-law and your nephew out of here,
Luoyang is going to fall.
What about you?
Just go, listen to me!
Good boy...
Milord, now that Father is dead,
the land now belongs to Tang.
Why risk your life? Just surrender to Tang.
I'm a man, a warrior,
I should go back to the battlefield.
If that's your decision, I know what to do.
But our son is still young...
Brother, where are you going?
Luoyang is going to fall,
Get a horse and leave here with your sister-in-law...
Oh no...
Prince Consort, Princess hanged herself in her room.
Brother...
Brother...don't go...
Shan Xiongxin, take this...
Luo Cheng, please forgive me, I can't wait for you.
Please forgive me, I can't go and live a peaceful life with you as promised
Forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye.
That I could meet you, know you and fall in love with you,
is already my great fortune.
Now you have your cause,
but my family is already broken.
Maybe it's our fate.
We must go our separate ways.
Goodbye, Luo Cheng.
I really can't stand seeing you being treated like this.
Come, untie him.
Stay away, back off...
Brother Tong, listen to me, surrender.
Lord Qin admires you.
Otherwise, with so many Tang men here,
you couldn't have had your way.
Brother Tong, it's heaven's will.
The five lords are dead,
you have no one to fight for.
Listen to me, surrender.
We brothers can be reunited.
Xu Ji, I'm no longer your Brother Tong.
You're no longer my Brother Ji.
We've already cut off our friendship.
We have nothing to do with each other.
Just save it.
General Shan, I admire you as a hero.
If you'll come over,
you'll be treated with honor.
General Shan, as for what happened in Er Xian Zhuang,
my father really had no choice.
Not so long ago, you chased me around in the Royal Orchard,
It must have given you some satisfaction.
Let me kowtow to you to apologize again.
General Shan, come join Tang.
Tang guy, take me head if you like.
Me surrender to Tang? Dream on.
Alright then.
Untie him and let him go.
Save it! Spare me your hypocrisy.
I no longer have a family, what's a country to me?
Since I've met this fate, I don't want to live.
I want to die.
Aright then. Your wish is granted.
Lock him up.
Execute him tomorrow.
Brother Tong, I'm here to see you off.
A man sheds blood but not tears.
Stop crying!
Brother Tong doesn't want to see you like this.
Brother Tong, I'll wait for you here.
Good.
Brother Yaojin...
Brother He...
Brother Tong, my toast to you.
Brother Yaojin, let me ask you,
where is Brother Qiong?
He's not here. Not here?
He's off escorting supplies.
Brother Qiong, it's my regret that I can't see you for the last time.
Good! Well done!
Brother Tong, drink it.
Don't forget we've been through thick and thin.
Let us be brothers again in our next lives.
We've been to the four corners of the world,
Nowhere is trickier than the human heart.
Think of the brotherhood of the Three Kingdoms,
Remind me, was it a happy ending?
Brother Ji,
you're the Tang Counselor.
I had a family in Luoyang.
You took away Shubao and Yaojin,
you didn't even leave me Luo Cheng.
I was blind!
You haven't called me Brother Ji in a long time
I almost forgot,
you're the most chivalrous man.
You shared wine and meat with your brothers
We have wine now. We should have meat too.
Brother Tong, forgive me. I still have unfinished business,
I cannot go with you.
Enjoy this meat from me.
Now you and I are one.
Brother Tong, your last treat.
Brother Tong, please, I beg you, surrender.
A loyal man does not serve two masters.
You should know me, I won't surrender.
Just kill me.
Since I can't have my revenge in this life,
let's meet in our next lives.
Brother Tong, for the last time, surrender.
I'm sorry, Deputy Luo, I've caught a cold.
I couldn't help it-.
My wish is granted. Spit for spit.
As I can see, these are all Wagang brothers.
Brother Cheng, I know what you're thinking.
From now on, we owe each other nothing.
Just do your job. Make it swift for me.
Brother Tong...
Let's be brothers again in our next lives.
Heaven above, spirits above,
we brothers are of one mind,
we here take a leaf from the heroes of the Three Kingdoms,
we pledge to be sworn brothers.
We will serve a benevolent ruler to bring peace and prosperity to the people.
We'll go through thick and thin together, we'll share weal and woe.
We were not born on the same day, but we wish to die together.
Whoever breaks our vow will earn the wrath of heaven.
Autumn of the third year of Daye.
Cheers...
You're the youngest, you're given the short shrift.
You're number forty-six.
Brother Qiong.
Brother Yaojin...
Brother Tong...
Brother Qiong...
It must be Brother Qiong,
he must have met some difficulties,
or he wouldn't have sold his horse.
Please don't say that...
I was the cause of this, I'm so ashamed.
Your mother is like my mother to me.
I'll get you out.
General...
General, wake up...
Go get some water... Yes...
General, wake up...
General, hang in there...
Come on... General...
Long live Your Majesty...
At ease...
Thank you, Sire.
I leave no credit unrewarded.
You are all loyal and have spared no efforts for the court.
The reign has been established, and peace is restored now.
You founding courtiers will be granted titles.
My benefactor Qin Qiong saved my life in Lintong,
and helped me with my conquests.
He's made Grand Guardian and Generalissimo,
and granted twin maces to root out evil.
Yuchi Gong saved his lord with his whip.
He's named Lord Eguo and granted a whip with the right to whip first and report later.
Thank you, Sire.
Luo Cheng is made Lord Yue.
Xu Maogong Lord Ying.
Cheng Yaojin Lord Lu.
A Qilin Court will be built to commemorate your achievements.
In the fight for Luoyang, Lord Qin Li Shimin wiped out the five rebel lords,
and set the foundation for Tang's reign.
Li Yuan put talents to use and brought peace and unification to the land.
In 618 AD, Li Yuan ascended the throne and established Chang'an as the capital.
That marked the beginning of the glorious Tang Dynasty.
