[The Fatal Mission]
- Episode 36 -
I'm such a weakling. With a little coercion from you guys,
I'm right back here.
Western Officer,
what did you write?
[world peace]
"World peace."
World peace.
Zhao, what is your wish?
I hope everyone in our squad
can all make it.
Here. Pour one for everyone.
Thank you for trusting me,
and the willingness to put your life in my hands.
Bottoms up.
Brigand, here.
Captain Zhao, let's agree on this. I can drink your alcohol,
but I have yet to put my life in your hands.
If you're going to drink, just drink. Why do you bother with the talk?
Fu Bin.
Old Jay.
I...
Sorry.
I've had enough.
Why aren't you drinking?
Gentlemen,
we have to set out early tomorrow. Don't drink too much.
I'm concerned that we'll cause trouble for our important mission.
Jay, you're just looking for an excuse.
You're used to drinking foreign alcohol, but not Chinese white spirits.
Do you find the Chinese white spirits less tasteful?
No, it's not like that.
You speak Chinese so well. You certainly understand the saying "When in Rome, do what the Romans do."
We only asked you to drink one cup, not even a whole bottle—
Stop.
How can you talk to the Western officer like that?
- Can't you tell the difference between which is which? - Tell me.
That Western officer didn't mean it that way.
Even I understood.
What he meant was that his rank is higher than ours
- and he doesn't want to drink with us. - What nonsense!
I'm not that small-minded.
Then you drink. Drink.
Okay, okay! I'll drink.
Hey, just take it all.
Here, my three brothers, who went through life and death with me,
stop talking nonsense. Cheers!
- Cheers! - Cheers!
All. All.
I say, drinking alone is no fun.
Let's sing a song. I'll lead off.
♪ Bayonets ahead ♪
♪ Cut off the Japs' heads ♪
♪ All our patriotic brothers ♪
♪ The day to fight back has arrived ♪
♪ Ahead is the brave militia from the Northeast ♪
♪ Backing us up is all the people of our country ♪
Division Commander, shall we go in?
No need.
The rest of the journey will be up to them themselves.
Mom.
Don't blame me for doing this, okay?
My teacher has vanished from my life.
He used his own life
to save our lives.
But he still had many wishes he didn't accomplish.
As my teacher's student,
I have to fulfill his unfinished wishes for him.
You would support my decision,
right?
And Ban Kuo.
He's about to leave me again.
All along,
no matter what choices he made,
I always supported him.
However, I hate parting with him again.
When he came back this time,
I could feel him changing,
and I'm changing as well.
But my love for him
has never changed.
In love,
one person
always needs to
be more forgiving than the other.
Because forever is a long time,
finding a man worthy of love isn't easy.
You miss your mother.
I told Mom you mistreated me.
You silly girl.
How could I mistreat my adorable little princess?
I can't even spoil you enough.
Child,
did you know?
Tomorrow morning, Zhao Ban Kuo and the rest of them will set off.
I know.
Don't you want to bid farewell to him?
I'm afraid that when I see him, I won't be able to leave him.
Zhuo Yan,
I know you've grown up.
I know you should make decisions for a lot of things yourself,
but I hope you can understand me.
In this world,
you are my only family.
I'm not willing to put you at risk.
I couldn't face your mother if I did that.
The price is just too high.
Dad,
I understand you.
I don't blame you.
This Zhao Ban Kuo...
I think he isn't that bad. I kind of like him.
I promise you, if he can succeed
this mission and come back alive,
I will personally host the wedding for you two.
Last time, he was lucky.
Will I be able to see his return this time?
Of course. You must have confidence in yourself, and you have to believe in him.
Just wait patiently for a bit longer.
Dad,
you've grown older.
Me?
I have?
These years you've served the role as a father and a mother.
I know it has not been easy for you.
It's all because I haven't been good.
I've been thoughtless.
I didn't understand you all this time
and I often argued with you.
I'm sorry.
In the future, I won't anymore.
Silly girl.
The mother of my daughter,
did you hear that?
Did you hear what your daughter said?
She's grown up.
Having such a good daughter to take care of me,
I'm content.
You should rest easy.

Very good.
Did you see those vehicles and those soldiers?
This time you and the reinforcement troops of Division 22
will leave for Kachin Hills at the same time.
After you arrive, you will split up to fight your own battles by yourselves.
Gentlemen, remember
you are soldiers from Division 36.
You are the pride of Division 36.
I will get the celebration banquet ready for you here,
waiting for your triumphant return.
Yes!
Salute!
Move out!
She's in bed early.
Dad,
as you said, I trust Ban Kuo,
but I could not stand the wait.
I believe that waiting helplessly for my fate
is the most useless and foolish choice of action.
Last time, I lost Ban Kuo's heart;
and this time, I don't want to resign myself to my fate
and lose him.
I want to strive with my own effort
to achieve my own happiness.
Dad, I'm sorry.
Forgive me for not being filial.
I've left.
Going to battle this time
is on a much bigger scale than what I did in the past.
It has a feeling of finding your own mother.
If Captain Liao were still around, that would be great..
Unfortunately, this time she couldn't come with us.
Use your brain the proper way.
I wouldn't be willing to see that.
Long Hair, for you, other than silver coins,
what else do you want to see?
The more you love money, the more money will love you back. Do you understand that?
Just look at your face like Old Fool's, you deserve a life in poverty.
Let's get comfortable for a while.
After we enter Kachin Hills, it will be just us then.
We'll have to depend on ourselves.
I received word in the last couple of days that
the Expeditionary Forces have already taken over Tai Bai Jia and west to the valley of Chu Kang River.
Right now, the majority of the Japs have been pinned down by the Expeditionary Forces.
This way, completing our mission should be a bit easier.
I think Old Jay is right.
It's just a hill.
What is there to be scared of?
Ignorance is bliss.
Brigand, when the time comes, you'll find out.
[Tengchong]
Dismount.
We can only send you here.
There are no roads ahead of us.
Follow this small path and keep walking.
You'll be in the hills in about a day's time.
Regiment Commander Li, thank you.
Take care of yourselves.
Set out.
[Dandelion]
Major, as you instructed, we have built a fort in the forest.
However, we haven't sighted the enemy squad yet.
They're being cautious and won't dare come out?
You mustn't let your guard down. Strengthen our defense.
Don't let your guard down even for a moment.
Yes, Sir!
Ban Kuo, why are we following a different trail than the first time?
Because this time the Jap's defensive perimeter is completely different.
We have to go around the Jap's primary line of defense from north to south
before we can arrive at our destination accurately.
Where's our first stop?
The dandelion field.
And then?
When we get to the dandelion field, the Headquarters will give us our next order.
Then aren't you just like Captain the last time we entered the hills?
Maybe this time even the American knows more than you do.
Long Hair.
It seems that the Japs already engaged Division 22 in battles.
How could these scattered pieces of burlap
and gathered rotten wood for cover stop Division 22?
Could these Japs have exhausted all their resources already?
If we got here a little earlier, we might have had the chance to fight the Japs.
Please remember we're here to carry out our mission.
Mission? What mission?
Enough. Stop arguing.
Officer Old Jay, you have the highest rank here.
You certainly know what the mission is.
Why don't you tell us about it?
Brigand,
when you joined the squad, I told you
the mission is classified. You can't just casually ask about it.
Consider this time a warning.
If you do it again, watch out that I might shoot you for it.
Did you hear me?
I heard you. I'm not deaf.
Okay, we're tired from marching for so long.
We are all feeling a little irritated.
That's right. Marching nonstop
while being tired and hungry can make us moody and short-fused.
Japs just lost a battle here. They won't be back for a while.
Why don't we take a break here? What do you think?
Okay, we'll rest here.
What happened?
Isn't it just a corpse? I thought you ran into a monster.
Fu Bin, you get scared from just a corpse like this?
Hurry up and find a place to bury him.
He will rot away quickly and spread germs in this hot weather.
Go-Go and bury him.
Long Hair, Four Eyes, take the corpse away.
The rest of you take a rest.

These Japs made their bunkers so small.
They can only fit one or two men in at most. How useful could these be?
The Japs are small-minded and the things they make are also small.
You don't even have to bring it up.
They had to have been beaten so badly and now are scared of us.
Would you die if you don't brag?
Let me tell you this. Knocking down a Jap might be easy,
but scaring him isn't so easy.
From here on out,
we're entering dangerous territories.
- Our peaceful days are over. - Everyone pull yourselves together.
Long Hair, lead the way.
Okay.
Captain, up ahead are men from the 22nd Division. They're in a firefight with the Japs.
It seems that they won't be able to hold the line.
- Go! Let's support them. - No! Zhao, we can't do that!
Don't forget our mission.
We can't let them die without helping them. Go!
Shit!
Which tree is that gunfire coming from?
- Okay, Medic, you stay here and watch your three brothers. - Okay.
Long Hair and Four Eyes and I will take care of the enemies in the trees on the right.
The rest of you will handle the enemies on the left.
The whistle is our signal. We'll move in to take them out at once.
- Go! - Go!
Slowly.

Old Jay, you did well.
It's all thanks to Fu Bin's good work.
- Take care of the corpse. - Wait.
What are you doing?
Every time I kill a Jap, I take a collar tab.
The more I collect, the more I feel like a man.
Girls like me even more.
What kind of hobby is that?
I thought you could exchange them for money.
Are they all okay?
Nothing big.
Captain.
Can we talk in private?
Zhao, we aren't here to fight a war.
Don't forget we have a more important mission.
It's a hundred times more important than fighting these Japs.
We absolutely can't take this kind of risk again.
But we couldn't just leave them to die.
We soldiers can't act on emotions.
You have to know that.
I didn't act on emotion.
This is the second time I came to Kachin Hills.
Okay, I understand, but we've just arrived at the hills. We can't have any casualties in our squad.
Completing the mission was also your Captain Liao's aspiration.
Ban Kuo, our three brothers say they want to go now.
Go.
Sir, thank you for your help this time.
But what unit are you with?
Your equipment is far more advanced than ours.
We are...
We are a small squad from Division 36.
No matter what, we're all one family.
Do you want to hurry back now?
After finishing this battle, there are no more Japanese bunker positions in this area.
Our mission is already completed and we have to go back and reunite with our main force.
Understood.
Then take care of yourself on your way back.
Four Eyes.
These are food rations, a compass and an extra map.
You will definitely be able to use them on the road.
Thank you, Sir.
Then we'll now take our leave and see you again another time.
Hope to see you again.
Let's sort out our equipment and set off.
Brigand, what are you doing?!
Why are you guys so tense?
Aren't you hungry after marching for so long?
It's been days since we had meat.
I shot some wild game for you all to enjoy.
What kind of a soldier are you?
Don't you know that doing that will attract the Japs?
Captain, but I've already shot them.
Let's not waste food, okay?
Can you eat those things?
They taste delicious.
That's true. He already shot them. Let's try them out.
- Don't be wasteful. - Yeah, taste it yourself.
Heavens.
I've never tasted roasted bats before.
It smells so good.
Give me that leg.
Let me tell you. My grandfather liked to take me hunting since I was little.
We ate whatever we shot.
I'm not bragging to you, but anything that flies or walks in this world,
there's nothing I haven't eaten before.
It's done.
- Captain. - Mmm.
I want that leg.
Only you are so troublesome.
- Old Jay. - I've never had it before, I don't want it.
No thank you.
If you won't eat it, give it to me.
You've lived like a prince, so you sure wouldn't want to eat that. Right?
Then don't waste it. I'll suffer a bit and help you out.
Long Hair.
No need. I'll just think of it as getting rid of a beggar.
Rich folks sure got the right temperament.
Si Mao, don't be impulsive.
- Put out the fire! - Stamp out the fire!
Doctor Su!
Zhuo Yan?!
Ban Kuo.
I finally found you.
I thought I would never be able to see you again.
Zhuo Yan.
This lousy place even scares the heck out of us guys.
What's a girl like you doing running around out here?
You--
Why did a girl suddenly appear?
Who is that girl?
Division 36 Commander's daughter, Su Zhuo Yan.
She's a doctor at the battlefield hospital. She previously applied to join our squad but was refused.
I didn't realize she'd follow us here.
That's really something.
Little girl, you're a true heroine among women.
I salute you.
Who the heck do you think you are?
Don't you see that she's already crying so hard?
How can you, a big tough guy,
be so sarcastic?
Rookie, since she belongs to you,
it's up to you to figure out what to do.
Give me a moment.
Zhuo Yan, come over here.
Zhuo Yan.
Zhuo Yan, why did you come here?
Ban Kuo,
I hid with the convoy
and followed you secretly.
On the way, there were leeches and other horrible things everywhere.
I came close to not being able to endure it.
Zhuo Yan--
Why did you come?
I just wanted to be together with you.
Does your father know?
I left him a letter before I left.
Do you know the consequences of your actions?
I don't care about any consequences.
I just want to fight battles along with you.
No way. You can't follow me.
Why can't I?
It's too dangerous here! There could be Japs at any time or place! Bullets have no names!
Besides you are your father's only daughter.
With you coming here,
he'll definitely worry like crazy.
Don't say anymore.
I'm not going back.
Ban Kuo, let me stay.
Look. Since I was able to find you all by myself,
that proves I can protect myself.
I promise not to cause any trouble for you.
No way.
Go back.
Sir, do you know this girl?
I recognize her.
She saved me once.
Do you understand her?
I'm afraid no one here understands her.
No matter what her real identity is,
she shouldn't know too much.
And she must not stay with our squad.
Look at that girl. She not only talks so soft,
she's also a real beauty.
Look at how evil your mind is.
You're drooling all over your pants.
I am telling you, don't get any ideas about that girl.
So stop your selfish calculations.
That's Rookie's woman.
That girl has a strong personality.
If she wrestled with you,
what you got couldn't handle her.
Look at your face full of wrinkles.
What about you? You trying to be some hero and save her?
Aren't you too old to be thinking that?
I'd say, our captain isn't thinking too straight either.
She is such a beautiful girl.
- Why wouldn't he let her join our squad? - Get lost!
Zhao, come with me for a minute.
I have something to tell you.
