【Episode 8】@Whimsical
Now Zhu Ge Liang is taking three prefectures, control troops in Long Xi
what should we do to defeat them, grand general
Your majesty
now we have Princess's Husband Xia Hou
put defence in the Ji Valley, cut their way to Mei City
for me, I stay in Chang An
plus we have enough people and grain
to fight Shu army
wait for them to retreat without any food
defend, right?
Zhu Ge Liang is now gathering troops on our Great Wei's land
you ask me to defend?
Zhu Ge Liang is good at using tricks, your majesty
waiting for him to act is the best choice
Alright
Zhu Ge Liang traveled very far by himself
all the grain transported from the back
can we cut his grain supply?
Your majesty, I have thought about it long time ago
Zhu Ge Liang has sent Ma Su to defend the supply long ago
then we fight Ma Su, cut his supply
I'm telling you
I'm going to take three prefectures back
I'm not an emperor who endure losing lands
Your majesty, the war with Shu
[Zhang He, Jun Yi] is not going to end in a short period of time
I also think what grand general said is appropriate
Report to grand general
How dare you, the emperor is right here
Greetings to the emperor, report to the emperor
Riding General Si Ma Yi is here
-Si Ma Yi is here? Call him in -Yes
was emperor call Si Ma Yi to get here?
why did I not know that
Si Ma Yi is secretive and mysterious
I don't know either
if you didn't call him in
then he came here on his own will
his move equals disobeying the order
Uncle, why would I blame a man who dedicates himself to our country
OK, you want me to punish him
I will do it after we get back three prefectures
long live the emperor
-please get up -thank you
you are back right on time
what's your progress in Xin city
report to the emperor, Meng Da had secret communication with Zhu Ge Liang
gather troops to rebelt, I have killed him
now the border is safe, don't worry your majesty
OK
you travel 2000 kms in one month
and you made it
I regret that I couldn't keep you in the capital at that time
otherwise
three prefectures couldn't lost
your majesty, I'm not good enough
if you have something to ask me do
I would make it happen even I die
Good, I'm waiting for you to say it
take a look at this
report to the emperor, Zhu Ge Liang sent an expedition
grain is the key
we only have to take fortress Jie Ting down
cut his supply, we will defeat them without any cost
I thought you have some excellent ideas
to attack fortress Jie Ting, you know I know Zhu Ge Liang also knows
and Zhu Ge Liang is now sending
Ma Su to defend this place
as the grand general said, we lost the advantage
I just remember that
you said to fight Ma Su
and take back Jie Ting, this idea is very reasonable
since Zhong Da is willing to take troops
then I thought
Zhong Da shall take troops to get Jie Ting back
What do you think, your majesty
fortress Jie Ting is easy to defend, hard to attack
if Shu Ge Liang has sent troops to defend the place
Grand general, should we switch to another plan?
Si Ma Yi, was that you who say
any quest from the emperor will be done with my life
now you want to deceive the emperor
besides, if you don't take back Jie Ting
you want us to wait until Zhu Ge Liang retreat?
Your majesty, if Si Ma Yi refuse to accept the order
he commits crime of false pretenses
what do you say
I'm glad to fight for my emperor
you cannot lie in military
I'm willing to make a military order
Sun Li
I'm here
you send a troop and sneak in Long Xi quickly
release the rumor that
Ma Su is arrogant and he doesn't get alone with Wang Ping
You go to Jie Ting in person
after Ma Su settle down
gather the Intelligence of Shu army to me in graph
Yes
General wants to trick Zhu Ge Liang to switch off Ma Su?
Zhu Ge Liang is not dumb
you are afraid of Ma Su?
what do you mean, general Zhang
what is the point of releasing the rumor
you disrupt their morale at first, then you wait for the right moment
[Zhang Hu] War needs to be fast
this is the first time I heard from a commander to wait
he thought he's drinking tea in minister department
but wait here
[Yue Chen] Jie Ting has the narrow topography
Zhu Ge Liang is good at using tricks
you have to gather intelligence before you go
General, the military strategy and tactics say: encircle and suppress enermies when you have 10 times more people
now we are not moving forward with 10 times people more than them
are you trying to let the world make fun of us?
yeah, how can you win a war if you don't take fights
right
so much gabbling in the barracks
can you behave you yourself?
who is the chief general in this camp?
collecting ideas
you guys are supposed to give opinions
General, I'm willing to be the pioneer
to take Jie Ting with my life
you are still young
soliders in this camp are all experienced
with great contributions
you are not allowed to speak
you are not deciding what is our next move
are you scared of leading troops like this
General Zhang had done well in the past battles
do you want to be the pioneer
go to Jie Ting
I fear nothing, since the order has made
soliders should die on the battlefield without any fear
I'm willing to take 50000 solider to Jie Ting
OK
now I claim Zhang He is the pioneer
leads 50000 soliders form here to Jie Ting
please prepare yourself, general Zhang
Yes
generals
let's move
Yes
Dad
prime minister, please take some rest
it's going to be dawn in four hours
how's everything
with You Chang
Ma has learned much from you
with help with Wang Ping
with your letter of reminder
he must know what you mean
Call Yang Yi to here
why?
Ma Su is arrogant
He can fight cautiously if I don't remind him
once my letter is arrived
remind him again and again before Wang Ping
He would do the opposite
I'm afraid it's going to be bad
Go call Yang Yi here
Yes
Report
prime minister, the map of defence in Jie Ting is ready
Ma Su, Ma Su
you ruined everything
Why do advisor Ma camp on the mountain?
opinionated
tell Yang Yi to switch off Ma Su
Yes
-Listen to my call -Yes
tell every general
to have a meeting in the pavilion
dad eliminated Meng Da lighting fast
why is he so anxious now
how can Meng Da compare to Zhu Ge Liang?
dad fought with East Wu last time
dad was cautious when he versus Lu Xun
right
maybe Ma Su is as good as Lu Xun
chief general, chief general
chief general
general Sun
chief general, the map of Ma Su's camp has completed
This is South Mountain, Ma Su is camping on this mountain
there must be mistakes
I would never make mistakes with such big intelligence
Zhang He is so lucky
Zhu Ge Liang
How can Zhu Ge Liang send a moron to defend Jie Ting
Yeah
this is Wei's luck
Sun Li, Si Ma Shi, hurry up
assemble our troops,
we have to get to Jie Ting before dawn
Yes
Dad, Zhang He takes all the credit now
we should have let my big brother be the pioneer
nonsense, Zhang He and I are on the same side
The honour belongs to Great Wei
assemble the whole army, hurry up
-Hou Ji, give me my armor -Yes
what are you waiting for?
take your sword, otherwise the credit is all gone
coming
dad, I'm coming
I'm coming
Ma Su got nothing more
Zhu Ge Kong Ming got nothing more
Si Ma Yi
such huge credit
you didn't go for it
my thanks to you
they cut our water supply and mountain pass as we expected
what should we do?
take the water supply back
go take some water, hurry
move faster
Wei's troops are on the way here
or none of us can go back
speed up
retreat, retreat
hurry up
I'm so thirsty
they shall be back soon
advisor
have some water
I need water
take back the water supply
Yes
you haven't slept for two nights, your majesty
if I got something from Si Ma Yi
I would wake you up
Jie Ting
Si Ma Yi must has arrived Jie Ting now
I don't know whether he can win this battle or not
as far as what I see
it is actually good if he lost the fight
one is the prime minister from Shu
one is the Regent of Wei
which one is the bigger threat to you
even he dies
he has to take three prefectures back first
fire
hold on
advisor, we don't have enough water to put out the fire
We are going to lose Jie Ting
I'm too ashamed to see the prime minister
we shall break out since we still have the energy
Let's move
All soliders listen up, break out now
Rush in
Sun Li, Si Ma Shi lead our team
to help Zhang He to take Jie Ting
Yes
-I want to go as well -You stay here
dad, we made it right
yeah, we made it
right on time
emphasis on offence
general
General Si Ma comes to here with major troops both by day and by night
help you to get Jie Ting
help me?
I must take down Jie Ting within two hours even he didn't come here
Archers ready
retreat
report!
prime minister, we lost Jie Ting
prime minister
Jie Ting is lost
we shall leave as soon as possible
please make a decision
this...
is my fault
General, they totally lost
Do we chase them?
we recall
-we don't chase? -we don't chase
yes
dad
does the credit belongs to others if we chase Ma Su?
Ma Su is useless
what is good for us to chase him
if Zhu Ge Liang sets a trap ahead
then we lost everything we got
what do you mean by "the credit belongs to others"
Ma Su camp here
it mustn't be Zhu Ge Liang's idea
if I didn't release the rumor
made Ma Su and Wang Ping don't get along with each other
then Ma Su wouldn't made such big mistake
we shall not win that easily today
dad focused on mind controlling
smart move, gain a decisive victory a thousand miles away
general Zhang wasn't able to defeat Ma Su if we didn't come here on time
but dad
it would be perfect if you let brother go first
do you know why Ma Su lost?
Because Zhu Ge Liang treated Ma Su as his biological son
spoilt him so much
mother spoils the kid is bad, father spoils the kid is worse
what is our situation
we are in the army
everytime you call brother or dad
there are only soliders in the army, no dad or son
Yes, dad
what?
General Si Ma
second prince, prince is right
General is right!

[the show continues]
report
report to the emperor, Riding General has taken down Jie Ting
Nice
I have to reward them a lot
Yes
this Si Ma Yi
didn't turn me down
your majesty
after they lost Jie Ting
Zhu Ge Liang doesn't have barrier anymore
now it's the easiest time to catch him
please make an order for Si Ma Yi to take back three prefectures
catch Zhu Ge Liang alive
your majesty
OK
God bless Great Wei
Thank you, my lord
Guan Xing, Zhang Bao
Yes
each of you bring 3000 soliders
find the path on the Wu Gong mountain
don't fight Wei's army if you encounter them
you can only make noises to confuse them
they don't know where we at
they would run away instead of chasing
after they are gone, then you go to Yang Ping Guan
Yes
Zhang Yi
you take 1000 people to repair Jian Ge
as our back up
Yes
Yang Yi
Yes
you send people to Ji Xian
escort Jiang Wei's mother to Han Zhong
you cannot let her disturbed by Wei
Yes
Prime minister
Jiang Wei
Yes
you go to Xi Xian with me
Yes
Prime minister
you have to go back to Han Zhong right now
why do you go to Xi Xian
Xi Xian is the main entrance of three prefectures
prime minister wants to save people's lives in three prefectures
they surrended to me once
after Wei takes back three prefectures
they must kill them all
I cannot let them die
generals
do as the order says
yes
order from the emperor
Si Ma Yi, Zhang He shall take back three prefectures
catch Zhu Ge Liang alive
Si Ma Yi, Zhang He will do
it doesn't make sense
forced us to make military order, now want us to catch Zhu Ge Liang alive
Cao Zhen doesn't have to do anything?
I think we go to Yang Ping Guan right now
we can catch them up if we are fast enough
I don't think Zhu Ge Liang would go to Yang Ping Guan
then where would he go?
the art of war says, generals may have five weaknesses
is it kinda late for us to review the art of war
five weaknesses, only knows to fight to death, only knows to live in battles
impatient, clean, love the people
Zhu Ge Liang takes two of the five
I think Zhu Ge Liang
would go to Xi Xian
Xi Xian is a small place
why not Yang Ping Guan, a big city
although it's small, but it is the main entrance of three prefectures going into Shu
if Zhu Ge Liang take people into Shu
he must go through Xi Xian, I bet on his heart of loving people
even it's his weakness
how far can he go with so many kids and old people
how can he be so muddled
take people leave even know they are burden
do what seems impossibe
this is Zhu Ge Liang
we are not as good as him
I have decided, say no more
go to Xi Xian
Yes
keep up, hurry [Xi Xian]
greetings to prime minister
[County magistrate of Xi Xian] We are helping them to evacuate, but they are too slow
so slow, hurry up
take it
prime minister
Si Ma Yi and Zhang He lead 150000 people approaching
we only have 5000
half of them are helping people evacuating
prime minister goes first, I will cover you
prime minister, it's 150000
how...
how can we evacuate them to Han Zhong?
County magistrate is right
Bo Yue, you cover people to leave
County magistrate and I stay here to defend
No way
we don't have defense here
how can you defend
please let me fight Wei's army to death
you only have about 2000 people here
even if you fight to death
think about it
how long can you hold 150000 people
our people are moving slowly
if they got caught by Wei
they are all dead
take my order, gather you men
cover people to evacuate
prime minister
please don't do it
you are responsible for more
I represent as the three army as a whole to beg you
please go back to Han Zhong
do what I said
say no more
report
report to general, left side doesn't have ambush
-Search again -yes
report, right side doesn't have ambush
-Search again -yes
Xi Cheng
is so quiet
general Si Ma
what if Zhu Ge Liang doesn't love people all the sudden
what if he's not here
I'm the one who make orders right now
with this time
Zhu Ge Liang has left to Han Zhong long ago
dad
the flag
Zhu Ge Liang is here
this man is so mysterious
tell the whole troops to move forward slowly
move forward slowly
