1
00:00:03,024 --> 00:00:05,026
Fictional work. Any similarity
to real names or events is coincidental.
2
00:00:05,110 --> 00:00:05,944
Underage smoking is prohibited.
3
00:00:12,367 --> 00:00:14,369
Year 60 of the Yamato era. Spring.
4
00:00:14,453 --> 00:00:18,165
Seii's Commander-in-Chief, Ohga Wajima,
leading an army of 70,000,
5
00:00:18,248 --> 00:00:20,917
launched her invasion into Okuetsu,
deep within Yamato territory.
6
00:00:21,001 --> 00:00:23,378
Just prior to this,
sensing a growing unease,
7
00:00:23,462 --> 00:00:25,505
Borderland General Mitsuhide Ryumon,
8
00:00:25,589 --> 00:00:28,091
acting on the counsel
of his strategist Yasuaki Kaku,
9
00:00:28,175 --> 00:00:30,135
turned his forces back toward Fukui.
10
00:00:30,844 --> 00:00:32,304
Meanwhile, in Kanazawa,
11
00:00:32,387 --> 00:00:36,933
{\an8}the Yamato commanders continued
to be lavishly entertained day and night.
12
00:00:43,690 --> 00:00:46,026
So, it's finally begun.
13
00:00:46,109 --> 00:00:47,110
Indeed.
14
00:00:47,194 --> 00:00:51,406
All of this is credited
to your brilliant stratagem, Lord Nagao--
15
00:00:51,490 --> 00:00:52,866
Save the flattery.
16
00:00:52,949 --> 00:00:55,202
What's pivotal now is
17
00:00:55,285 --> 00:00:58,538
drawing Ryumon and the others
to Kanazawa as soon as possible.
18
00:00:59,039 --> 00:01:02,584
I also have a letter
from the Commander-in-Chief.
19
00:01:02,667 --> 00:01:05,420
Wait, what?
20
00:01:06,546 --> 00:01:08,423
{\an8}THE SUCCESS OF THIS CAMPAIGN
OWES MUCH TO YOUR EFFORTS.
21
00:01:08,507 --> 00:01:10,175
Handwritten!
22
00:01:10,258 --> 00:01:11,551
So precious!
23
00:01:12,636 --> 00:01:13,804
Lord Nagao?
24
00:01:13,887 --> 00:01:17,933
I'm finally getting fired up.
25
00:01:21,895 --> 00:01:25,690
NIPPON SANGOKU:
THE THREE NATIONS OF THE CRIMSON SUN
26
00:02:52,068 --> 00:02:58,450
{\an8}7 HOURS AFTER THE START OF WAR
KUZURYU CASTLE
27
00:02:58,533 --> 00:02:59,826
{\an8}Commander Wajima.
28
00:02:59,910 --> 00:03:01,578
{\an8}Reporting.
29
00:03:02,078 --> 00:03:02,954
{\an8}Go on.
30
00:03:03,038 --> 00:03:05,916
{\an8}The Kura army has completed
the capture of Kuzuryu Castle.
31
00:03:05,999 --> 00:03:07,375
{\an8}SEII STRATEGIST
YAYAKICHI HEI
32
00:03:08,835 --> 00:03:10,503
{\an8}Did they run into more resistance
than expected?
33
00:03:11,171 --> 00:03:12,839
{\an8}The Yamato troops fought fiercely,
34
00:03:12,923 --> 00:03:14,674
{\an8}and our forces
took significant losses as well.
35
00:03:14,758 --> 00:03:15,926
{\an8}EPISODE 7: THE KANAZAWA NIGHT RAID
36
00:03:16,968 --> 00:03:18,303
Is Aterui all right?
37
00:03:18,386 --> 00:03:22,641
He appears to have suffered some injuries,
but nothing life-threatening.
38
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,769
Have him rest, just to be safe.
39
00:03:25,852 --> 00:03:28,355
This is just the opening battle.
40
00:03:28,438 --> 00:03:30,690
Without him, we'll have a hard time
in the battles ahead.
41
00:03:31,316 --> 00:03:32,359
Yes, ma'am.
42
00:03:32,442 --> 00:03:35,236
That said, we have also taken
Katsuyama Castle and Ono Castle,
43
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,949
and secured Okuetsu
in less than half a day.
44
00:03:39,032 --> 00:03:42,494
Yes. Everyone fought admirably.
45
00:03:43,745 --> 00:03:45,205
So precious.
46
00:03:46,498 --> 00:03:48,249
However, there's one more matter.
47
00:03:48,333 --> 00:03:51,336
According to our spies,
it seems Ryumon and his forces
48
00:03:51,419 --> 00:03:53,964
have picked up on something
and withdrawn to Fukui.
49
00:03:54,047 --> 00:03:57,467
A slightly unexpected
turn of events, perhaps?
50
00:03:57,550 --> 00:04:00,136
If it were any easier,
the hunt wouldn't be worth it.
51
00:04:00,220 --> 00:04:03,431
Yayakichi, as soon as Aterui's recovered,
52
00:04:03,515 --> 00:04:07,143
we advance along the Kuzuryu River
toward Reihoku.
53
00:04:07,644 --> 00:04:09,312
We are going dragon hunting.
54
00:04:12,190 --> 00:04:13,191
{\an8}FUKUI REIHOKU CASTLE
55
00:04:13,274 --> 00:04:14,234
{\an8}We have come under attack
56
00:04:14,317 --> 00:04:16,611
{\an8}from an estimated 70,000 Seii soldiers
out of Hakusan.
57
00:04:16,695 --> 00:04:17,904
{\an8}DISTRICT GOVERNOR OF FUKUI
SHOJI TAIRA
58
00:04:17,988 --> 00:04:20,907
{\an8}All the outlying castles in Okuetsu
are reported to have fallen.
59
00:04:20,991 --> 00:04:21,825
{\an8}BORDERLAND GENERAL
MITSUHIDE RYUMON
60
00:04:21,908 --> 00:04:23,535
{\an8}And how many casualties on our side?
61
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,330
The castellan of each castle,
12 of the Borderland General Corps,
62
00:04:27,414 --> 00:04:31,835
and over 1,000 general personnel
and Okuetsu soldiers
63
00:04:33,169 --> 00:04:35,213
lost their lives in the line of duty.
64
00:04:36,047 --> 00:04:37,549
Here are the details.
65
00:04:41,511 --> 00:04:42,721
District Governor Taira,
66
00:04:43,221 --> 00:04:47,017
gather all our Fukui soldiers and civilian
provisions in Reihoku immediately.
67
00:04:47,100 --> 00:04:52,313
What? But then everywhere outside Reihoku
will be left undefended.
68
00:04:52,397 --> 00:04:55,692
If the Seii army attacks again,
Fukui's territory will...
69
00:04:56,526 --> 00:04:59,654
That hesitation
to send reinforcements to Okuetsu
70
00:04:59,738 --> 00:05:01,197
led to the last battle.
71
00:05:01,281 --> 00:05:03,783
Didn't you just learn the hard way
72
00:05:03,867 --> 00:05:08,329
that a picket-line defense
guarding each outpost in isolation
73
00:05:08,413 --> 00:05:10,165
can't even hold territory?
74
00:05:11,124 --> 00:05:15,211
A rapid and certain concentration
of all forces.
75
00:05:15,295 --> 00:05:20,050
Failure to achieve this is tantamount
to surrendering our relative advantage
76
00:05:20,133 --> 00:05:23,136
and narrowing our chances of victory.
77
00:05:25,388 --> 00:05:28,183
Lost territory can be reclaimed,
78
00:05:29,142 --> 00:05:32,312
but once lives are lost,
they can never be brought back.
79
00:05:32,937 --> 00:05:34,230
There's no time to lose.
80
00:05:34,314 --> 00:05:37,734
See to it
that the move to Reihoku begins tonight.
81
00:05:37,817 --> 00:05:39,069
Yes, sir!
82
00:05:39,152 --> 00:05:41,571
CASTELLAN SATO
DEPUTY CASTELLAN HIRAIZUMI
83
00:05:43,198 --> 00:05:45,325
Castellan Sato,
who lost his life in the line of duty,
84
00:05:45,408 --> 00:05:47,660
{\an8}was said to be widely respected
for his character.
85
00:05:47,744 --> 00:05:48,745
{\an8}STRATEGIST
YASUAKI KAKU
86
00:05:48,828 --> 00:05:50,538
{\an8}I offer my sincere condolences.
87
00:05:51,623 --> 00:05:53,458
Sato liked his drink.
88
00:05:54,084 --> 00:05:56,586
I think you two would've gotten along.
89
00:05:59,464 --> 00:06:02,008
{\an8}Given the scale of the Okuetsu invasion,
90
00:06:02,092 --> 00:06:06,179
{\an8}Seii likely lacks the capacity
to strike Kanazawa's main force.
91
00:06:07,138 --> 00:06:09,891
{\an8}However, as long as the main force
remains unaware that the war has begun,
92
00:06:09,974 --> 00:06:11,976
they are effectively hostages.
93
00:06:12,602 --> 00:06:16,439
Given that, how do you think
our return to Fukui will be received?
94
00:06:16,523 --> 00:06:19,651
In any case, we have already taken action.
95
00:06:20,318 --> 00:06:23,571
All that remains
is to rely on their efforts.
96
00:06:23,655 --> 00:06:25,949
{\an8}KANAZAWA
97
00:06:26,032 --> 00:06:27,951
What? For real?
98
00:06:28,034 --> 00:06:29,410
For real.
99
00:06:29,494 --> 00:06:30,703
According to the recon unit,
100
00:06:30,787 --> 00:06:33,706
Ryumon and the rear guard
have turned back to Fukui.
101
00:06:34,332 --> 00:06:37,377
It appears Ryumon and the others
have caught on after all.
102
00:06:38,878 --> 00:06:41,214
Kinda unexpected timing.
103
00:06:41,297 --> 00:06:43,091
But it's too late now.
104
00:06:43,633 --> 00:06:48,054
By the way, has word reached Sugoh's group
that Ryumon has pulled back?
105
00:06:48,138 --> 00:06:49,764
Rest assured.
106
00:06:49,848 --> 00:06:52,433
The Yamato messenger
has already been taken care of.
107
00:06:52,976 --> 00:06:54,561
Nice.
108
00:06:55,270 --> 00:06:58,565
What's Nagamine's central force
up to right now?
109
00:06:58,648 --> 00:07:01,276
It's reported that Shiryo Nagamine
hasn't crossed the Tedori River
110
00:07:01,359 --> 00:07:05,071
and has camped for the night
at the old Tedori Fish Land site.
111
00:07:05,155 --> 00:07:07,240
Ryumon is in Fukui.
112
00:07:07,323 --> 00:07:09,200
Sugoh and his lot don't know it,
113
00:07:09,284 --> 00:07:11,744
and Nagamine
hasn't crossed the Tedori River.
114
00:07:14,414 --> 00:07:17,667
So if we are taking Sugoh out,
tonight's our only chance.
115
00:07:17,750 --> 00:07:20,086
- Take out?
- What? Take out?
116
00:07:20,170 --> 00:07:22,005
Wait, hold on.
117
00:07:22,088 --> 00:07:25,884
Commander Wajima's orders were to keep
the Yamato forces here in Kanazawa.
118
00:07:25,967 --> 00:07:30,263
That only applies if Ryumon and Kaku
entered Kanazawa.
119
00:07:30,346 --> 00:07:33,016
Now that they have pulled back to Fukui,
120
00:07:33,099 --> 00:07:35,393
there's no reason
to keep Sugoh's group here.
121
00:07:35,476 --> 00:07:40,648
In fact, if all this gets back to Sugoh,
our lives are in serious danger.
122
00:07:40,732 --> 00:07:44,194
There are over 30,000 Yamato soldiers
in Kanazawa, after all.
123
00:07:44,819 --> 00:07:48,698
But if we take out Sugoh's group,
the rest are as good as a rabble.
124
00:07:48,781 --> 00:07:52,785
Right now, we have put up Tonotsugu,
Sugoh, and most of the Yamato commanders
125
00:07:52,869 --> 00:07:56,122
at the inns in Higashiyama.
126
00:07:56,706 --> 00:07:58,666
Over 30,000 Yamato soldiers
127
00:07:58,750 --> 00:08:03,588
are en route to barracks across Kanazawa,
led by my men.
128
00:08:04,380 --> 00:08:06,716
Let me say it again,
129
00:08:06,799 --> 00:08:09,344
if we are to take out Sugoh and his lot,
tonight's our only chance.
130
00:08:09,427 --> 00:08:11,387
- Well...
- But...
131
00:08:11,471 --> 00:08:14,349
So far, all you have done in this war
132
00:08:14,432 --> 00:08:19,562
is whip me and party all night, right?
133
00:08:19,646 --> 00:08:23,399
Even with the Self-injury Stratagem,
we let Ryumon and his forces get away.
134
00:08:23,483 --> 00:08:26,903
So I wouldn't call it a success
if you asked me.
135
00:08:26,986 --> 00:08:28,821
Keep failing to produce results,
136
00:08:29,364 --> 00:08:33,159
and you know there's no place for you
left in the government, right?
137
00:08:35,745 --> 00:08:37,080
Let's... Let's do it!
138
00:08:37,163 --> 00:08:38,539
- That's right!
- Let's do it!
139
00:08:38,623 --> 00:08:40,124
Let's do it tonight!
140
00:08:41,417 --> 00:08:42,377
Good.
141
00:08:44,671 --> 00:08:47,131
{\an8}RIGHT LIEUTENANT GENERAL
GOH SUGOH
142
00:08:53,179 --> 00:08:54,264
{\an8}GRAND ARCHIVIST
TONOTSUGU TAIRA
143
00:08:54,347 --> 00:08:57,433
{\an8}I thought it'd all be countryside,
but Kanazawa's actually pretty nice.
144
00:08:57,517 --> 00:08:59,227
It seems they are delayed after all.
145
00:08:59,310 --> 00:09:02,897
What's that?
Nagamine's unit still hasn't shown up?
146
00:09:02,981 --> 00:09:04,315
Slow as ever.
147
00:09:04,399 --> 00:09:06,651
Hold on.
The messenger still hasn't arrived?
148
00:09:06,734 --> 00:09:10,113
- No, sir, not yet--
- No need to tell the old man.
149
00:09:10,196 --> 00:09:13,074
What is there to convey
at this distance anyway?
150
00:09:13,157 --> 00:09:15,994
Don't you realize it's rude
151
00:09:16,077 --> 00:09:19,831
to go sneaking around
behind Lord Nagao's back like that?
152
00:09:21,666 --> 00:09:22,834
Grand Archivist Taira!
153
00:09:22,917 --> 00:09:24,043
{\an8}DEPUTY ARCHIVIST
JUNICHI TAMAKI
154
00:09:24,127 --> 00:09:25,670
{\an8}The large bath is ready.
155
00:09:25,753 --> 00:09:27,297
{\an8}Thanks for that.
156
00:09:27,380 --> 00:09:30,466
{\an8}- Well then, Tama, do you want to join too?
- Yes, sir!
157
00:09:34,929 --> 00:09:35,930
Excuse me, sir.
158
00:09:37,098 --> 00:09:38,975
I've brought your change of clothes.
159
00:09:41,769 --> 00:09:43,062
I'll take it from here.
160
00:09:43,146 --> 00:09:45,940
- Keep watch outside.
- Yes, sir.
161
00:09:49,152 --> 00:09:53,448
"Why on earth is the Deputy Archivist
stuck doing menial work like this?"
162
00:09:53,531 --> 00:09:55,408
Isn't that what you were just thinking?
163
00:09:57,076 --> 00:09:58,870
Orders from the Grand Archivist?
164
00:09:59,662 --> 00:10:01,080
Impressive as ever.
165
00:10:01,164 --> 00:10:02,248
You catch on quickly.
166
00:10:02,957 --> 00:10:05,626
Lord Tonotsugu takes after his father,
the Lord of Home Affairs.
167
00:10:05,710 --> 00:10:07,378
He's a remarkably sensitive man.
168
00:10:08,129 --> 00:10:12,008
I'm usually the one assigned
important matters like this.
169
00:10:13,718 --> 00:10:16,220
My apologies. Please raise your arms.
170
00:10:16,304 --> 00:10:20,725
To be honest, I wonder
if all this is really necessary.
171
00:10:20,808 --> 00:10:23,770
But this is also
for my own self-preservation.
172
00:10:24,479 --> 00:10:26,439
You can lower your arms now.
173
00:10:27,065 --> 00:10:31,194
In our country, it's incredibly difficult
for someone whose skin isn't yellow
174
00:10:31,277 --> 00:10:32,987
to hold such a high position.
175
00:10:33,654 --> 00:10:36,407
I really am sorry,
176
00:10:36,491 --> 00:10:40,995
but I have a family I need to feed.
177
00:10:41,079 --> 00:10:43,831
But that's exactly what that brat
took advantage of, wasn't it?
178
00:10:43,915 --> 00:10:45,583
And now look at the situation you are in.
179
00:10:47,043 --> 00:10:50,671
Well, guess I'm no different,
seeing as the brat got the best of me.
180
00:10:51,506 --> 00:10:53,633
I've got a family
I need to protect as well.
181
00:10:54,217 --> 00:10:56,427
My fourth child was born just last month.
182
00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:58,763
That's wonderful news!
183
00:10:59,430 --> 00:11:02,517
The ordinary is preparation
for the extraordinary.
184
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,269
Let's both be careful
not to get caught off guard.
185
00:11:05,353 --> 00:11:09,607
For this night raid, guns and fire arrows
are strictly prohibited.
186
00:11:10,274 --> 00:11:13,653
This is to ensure the raid is carried out
swiftly, without alerting the enemy,
187
00:11:13,736 --> 00:11:16,864
and above all,
to avoid involving innocent civilians.
188
00:11:17,490 --> 00:11:20,368
Once the sentries are killed,
all strike at once.
189
00:11:20,451 --> 00:11:22,537
Report from patrol.
190
00:11:22,620 --> 00:11:25,164
A suspicious man
was spotted near Tsuzumi Gate.
191
00:11:25,248 --> 00:11:27,708
They attempted pursuit but lost him.
192
00:11:28,209 --> 00:11:29,502
Awaiting orders.
193
00:11:29,585 --> 00:11:30,586
Their numbers and appearance?
194
00:11:31,170 --> 00:11:32,463
One individual.
195
00:11:32,547 --> 00:11:35,508
Reportedly had long, unkempt hair.
196
00:11:35,591 --> 00:11:38,511
Wearing a worn-out long undergarment.
197
00:11:38,594 --> 00:11:41,097
That area's crawling with thieves.
198
00:11:41,180 --> 00:11:44,142
Leave anyone who doesn't appear to be
from Yamato alone for now.
199
00:11:44,225 --> 00:11:45,143
Yes, sir.
200
00:11:45,226 --> 00:11:48,479
All right. We'll move now
to wipe out the Yamato bandits.
201
00:11:48,563 --> 00:11:51,357
- Everyone, prepare yourselves!
- Yes, sir!
202
00:11:53,192 --> 00:11:58,698
All I've done so far in this war
is get whipped and party.
203
00:11:58,781 --> 00:12:02,910
Even in the last coup,
I just attacked a poorly guarded armory.
204
00:12:02,994 --> 00:12:06,789
While Commander Wajima and Strategist Hei
craft brilliant plans,
205
00:12:06,873 --> 00:12:10,001
and Aterui crushes everything
with raw military force,
206
00:12:10,084 --> 00:12:13,171
I can't be the only one doing lame stuff.
207
00:12:15,715 --> 00:12:19,677
Commander Wajima,
please look forward to my report.
208
00:12:20,928 --> 00:12:26,309
Tonight, as a man of Seii,
I'll do what I've got to do.
209
00:12:30,897 --> 00:12:33,024
- I think I saw someone just now.
- What?
210
00:12:33,691 --> 00:12:34,817
No, I could be wrong.
211
00:12:35,568 --> 00:12:36,777
It might have been nothing.
212
00:12:36,861 --> 00:12:38,321
What the hell?
213
00:12:38,404 --> 00:12:39,739
I'll go take a quick look.
214
00:12:59,008 --> 00:13:01,928
HANDWRITTEN LETTER FROM OHGA WAJIMA
215
00:13:03,304 --> 00:13:04,722
All right!
216
00:13:04,805 --> 00:13:08,267
Might need to tighten it
a bit more for you, Mr. Sugoh.
217
00:13:08,351 --> 00:13:10,102
You look like you could snap the rope.
218
00:13:10,978 --> 00:13:12,271
I'm not some kind of superhuman.
219
00:13:12,355 --> 00:13:16,859
Still, I'm glad the Kaga annexation
looks like it'll wrap up without trouble.
220
00:13:16,943 --> 00:13:21,239
No. So far, we are the only ones
to arrive in Kanazawa.
221
00:13:21,322 --> 00:13:24,492
If this is Seii's scheme...
222
00:13:24,575 --> 00:13:27,161
Honestly,
you are quite the distrustful man,
223
00:13:27,245 --> 00:13:30,081
aren't you,
Right Lieutenant General Sugoh?
224
00:13:30,164 --> 00:13:34,126
If they meant to kill you, they would have
done it at last night's banquet.
225
00:13:37,129 --> 00:13:38,339
Someone's here.
226
00:13:38,422 --> 00:13:41,551
Oh, it's probably that guard from earlier.
227
00:13:43,553 --> 00:13:47,807
Seriously. I told him to ring the bell.
228
00:13:47,890 --> 00:13:50,226
I'll go give him an earful.
229
00:13:50,309 --> 00:13:53,187
Two, three, four.
230
00:13:53,271 --> 00:13:55,481
There's more than
just the guard from earlier.
231
00:13:58,067 --> 00:13:59,527
It can't be...
232
00:13:59,610 --> 00:14:00,653
- What?
- No!
233
00:14:08,744 --> 00:14:12,248
Right Lieutenant General Sugoh,
your life is mine.
234
00:14:17,378 --> 00:14:19,463
I struck an acupoint
235
00:14:19,547 --> 00:14:21,424
that runs
along the body's central meridian.
236
00:14:21,507 --> 00:14:24,051
The spot is commonly called
the solar plexus.
237
00:14:24,135 --> 00:14:26,887
Leave him like this,
and he will die from respiratory failure.
238
00:14:26,971 --> 00:14:29,390
Go get a doctor now.
239
00:14:29,473 --> 00:14:32,143
Or else,
say goodbye to this world with him.
240
00:14:32,226 --> 00:14:33,519
Your choice.
241
00:14:33,603 --> 00:14:35,813
Looks like
you haven't grasped the situation.
242
00:14:35,896 --> 00:14:37,315
You are the one who's about to die.
243
00:14:56,250 --> 00:14:57,084
Report!
244
00:14:57,168 --> 00:14:59,795
First Squad's mission completed.
245
00:14:59,879 --> 00:15:01,255
Nice work.
246
00:15:01,339 --> 00:15:04,258
Knew my men would make quick work of it.
247
00:15:04,342 --> 00:15:07,887
All right, next,
send one-third to do the cleanup.
248
00:15:07,970 --> 00:15:10,473
The rest of you move
to support Second and Third Squads.
249
00:15:10,556 --> 00:15:11,807
Yes, sir!
250
00:15:12,433 --> 00:15:13,476
Gunfire?
251
00:15:25,237 --> 00:15:28,658
Grand Archivist Taira!
252
00:15:30,618 --> 00:15:32,370
This isn't what you promised me,
253
00:15:33,245 --> 00:15:34,455
Father.
254
00:15:36,123 --> 00:15:38,250
You told me nothing would happen
255
00:15:38,876 --> 00:15:41,212
here in Kanazawa.
256
00:15:48,052 --> 00:15:50,596
BANG BANG
257
00:15:56,018 --> 00:15:58,229
I know painfully well how you feel.
258
00:15:58,729 --> 00:16:00,356
But don't waste your bullets right now.
259
00:16:01,399 --> 00:16:06,696
The guards at my inn fought and died
to let me escape.
260
00:16:07,738 --> 00:16:09,323
Tama's dead too.
261
00:16:10,157 --> 00:16:14,328
They were among the few people I trusted.
262
00:16:14,954 --> 00:16:19,208
With all those comrades of yours,
what would you know?
263
00:16:21,419 --> 00:16:22,586
I'll kill you.
264
00:16:29,176 --> 00:16:31,262
Kill me and then what?
265
00:16:32,263 --> 00:16:37,435
You think you can escape this inn district
wounded like that, by yourself
266
00:16:37,518 --> 00:16:40,312
with Seii soldiers everywhere?
267
00:16:40,396 --> 00:16:42,440
Even if you make it out,
268
00:16:42,523 --> 00:16:46,819
over 30,000 Yamato soldiers
have been split up across the barracks.
269
00:16:46,902 --> 00:16:48,654
Do you really have it in you
to rally them all,
270
00:16:48,738 --> 00:16:51,532
take command, and lead them back home?
271
00:16:52,658 --> 00:16:56,537
If you can picture a future
where you pull that off,
272
00:16:57,329 --> 00:16:59,206
then go ahead, kill me.
273
00:17:06,922 --> 00:17:09,091
I owe you an apology
for all my disrespect.
274
00:17:09,175 --> 00:17:11,135
The responsibility for this incident
275
00:17:11,218 --> 00:17:14,054
lies entirely with me,
Right Lieutenant General Sugoh.
276
00:17:14,138 --> 00:17:17,558
I ignored your counsel
and advanced our forces into Kanazawa.
277
00:17:18,184 --> 00:17:24,231
I too wish to avoid any further missteps,
or leave a stain on my name for posterity.
278
00:17:24,899 --> 00:17:27,693
And when we return to Yamato,
279
00:17:27,777 --> 00:17:30,321
there are things
I must ask my father as well.
280
00:17:34,742 --> 00:17:35,576
Please.
281
00:17:36,202 --> 00:17:37,411
I beg you,
282
00:17:38,162 --> 00:17:39,830
lend me your strength.
283
00:17:49,548 --> 00:17:51,258
I'm repaying you for earlier.
284
00:17:51,342 --> 00:17:55,596
Before Seii's reinforcements arrive,
we are getting out of here.
285
00:17:59,809 --> 00:18:00,893
Please.
286
00:18:10,694 --> 00:18:13,280
The two who escaped should be nearby!
287
00:18:13,364 --> 00:18:14,949
Find them at all costs!
288
00:18:21,997 --> 00:18:25,125
I thought it would be better for us
to have more allies,
289
00:18:26,001 --> 00:18:28,504
but it seems we are the only ones left.
290
00:18:28,587 --> 00:18:30,047
Let's keep moving.
291
00:18:33,884 --> 00:18:37,805
Right Lieutenant General Sugoh,
you've been wounded in the abdomen too.
292
00:18:38,597 --> 00:18:40,516
You should rest a little.
293
00:18:41,892 --> 00:18:44,562
A wound like this is nothing in battle.
294
00:18:45,187 --> 00:18:47,773
My wife's slap hurts more.
295
00:18:47,857 --> 00:18:50,234
BANG BANG
296
00:18:52,570 --> 00:18:58,117
I'll admit, I never would have guessed
you two would team up.
297
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:03,080
So, did that hurt
more than your wife's slap?
298
00:19:03,706 --> 00:19:06,166
Muuton Nagao...
299
00:19:06,250 --> 00:19:08,711
Do not take it personally.
300
00:19:08,794 --> 00:19:10,462
I have my own reasons too.
301
00:19:20,848 --> 00:19:23,684
Well, well.
In a rush for glory, weren't you?
302
00:19:24,351 --> 00:19:26,270
Muuton Nagao.
303
00:19:27,479 --> 00:19:28,522
What?
304
00:19:37,615 --> 00:19:39,199
Damn, that hurts.
305
00:19:39,700 --> 00:19:41,744
Did he hit my heart?
306
00:19:42,578 --> 00:19:44,121
This is brutal.
307
00:19:45,915 --> 00:19:47,374
Commander Wajima,
308
00:19:48,334 --> 00:19:51,629
I think... I screwed up.
309
00:19:54,632 --> 00:19:56,508
Now she's going to
310
00:19:57,968 --> 00:19:58,969
hate me.
311
00:20:02,056 --> 00:20:03,682
{\an8}Fancy meeting you here, Goh.
312
00:20:03,766 --> 00:20:05,559
{\an8}LEFT LIEUTENANT GENERAL
SHIRYO NAGAMINE
313
00:20:05,643 --> 00:20:07,102
Shiryo, what are you doing here?
314
00:20:07,186 --> 00:20:09,438
Following Strategist Kaku's orders.
315
00:20:09,521 --> 00:20:11,565
We will save the talk for later.
316
00:20:11,649 --> 00:20:15,444
- Let's get you to the Sai River now.
- The Sai River?
317
00:20:15,527 --> 00:20:17,821
I've got soldiers concealed
along the riverbank.
318
00:20:17,905 --> 00:20:19,365
The field medic is there too.
319
00:20:19,448 --> 00:20:22,493
Leave the Yamato soldiers in Kanazawa
to me.
320
00:20:23,118 --> 00:20:25,245
We'll make it back to Yamato alive.
321
00:20:25,329 --> 00:20:26,956
Hang in there, both of you!
322
00:20:27,039 --> 00:20:27,873
ROAR
323
00:20:27,957 --> 00:20:30,167
Left Lieutenant General Shiryo Nagamine
324
00:20:30,250 --> 00:20:34,463
led his concealed forces
and wiped out the Seii forces.
325
00:20:35,047 --> 00:20:39,677
{\an8}He regrouped the Yamato forces stationed
in Kanazawa, and together with
326
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,429
{\an8}Right Lieutenant General Goh Sugoh
and Grand Archivist Tonotsugu Taira,
327
00:20:42,513 --> 00:20:46,475
{\an8}turned back toward Fukui
to aid Ryumon and his troops.
328
00:20:46,558 --> 00:20:50,813
In Kanazawa, a total of 194 soldiers
were killed in action,
329
00:20:50,896 --> 00:20:54,525
The Seii army also suffered heavy losses
among their main forces.
330
00:20:55,192 --> 00:20:58,654
And so, the Kanazawa night raid
devised by Muuton Nagao
331
00:20:58,737 --> 00:21:00,864
came to its end.
332
00:21:00,948 --> 00:21:02,282
FIVE DAYS LATER
333
00:21:02,366 --> 00:21:03,200
OSAKA
334
00:21:03,283 --> 00:21:05,953
Those barbarians started a war
without so much as a declaration!
335
00:21:06,036 --> 00:21:08,080
The barbarian country
that invaded our land
336
00:21:08,163 --> 00:21:10,165
must be crushed at all costs!
337
00:21:10,249 --> 00:21:13,002
Exterminate the barbarians!
Annex the barbarian nation!
338
00:21:13,085 --> 00:21:14,878
EXPEL THE BARBARIANS!
WIPE THEM OUT!
339
00:21:14,962 --> 00:21:17,339
This is getting out of hand.
340
00:21:17,423 --> 00:21:20,384
The whole capital's already
in a war frenzy.
341
00:21:20,467 --> 00:21:21,885
{\an8}DEPUTY MASTER OF ARMS
YOSHITSUNE ASAMA
342
00:21:21,969 --> 00:21:23,387
{\an8}Still, if I had gone to the front,
343
00:21:23,470 --> 00:21:26,932
{\an8}don't you think they would be chanting
"Mr. Tsune" by now?
344
00:21:27,016 --> 00:21:27,850
{\an8}Right, Misumi?
345
00:21:27,933 --> 00:21:28,809
{\an8}AUDITOR
AOTERU MISUMI
346
00:21:28,892 --> 00:21:31,895
{\an8}But it's only been five days
since the Seii army's invasion.
347
00:21:31,979 --> 00:21:34,606
Side-parted hair completely ignored me.
348
00:21:34,690 --> 00:21:38,152
Why has news of the war spread so quickly?
349
00:21:38,235 --> 00:21:40,738
And why are protests
flaring up everywhere?
350
00:21:40,821 --> 00:21:42,531
It just doesn't add up.
351
00:21:43,657 --> 00:21:47,828
In other words, you are saying
someone's behind the protests?
352
00:21:48,454 --> 00:21:52,791
This is likely a plot
by those looking to profit off the war.
353
00:21:53,625 --> 00:21:55,919
In theory, if someone were to mobilize
354
00:21:56,003 --> 00:21:57,963
the large force stationed
in the capital region,
355
00:21:58,047 --> 00:22:00,007
Seii's capital could fall.
356
00:22:00,090 --> 00:22:01,133
Misumi,
357
00:22:02,342 --> 00:22:07,931
there's only one person in the government
who could mobilize an army that large.
358
00:22:08,557 --> 00:22:10,726
It's certainly possible.
359
00:22:11,351 --> 00:22:16,857
The annexation of Seii, achieved through
the use of force by Lord Taira, you say?
360
00:22:16,940 --> 00:22:20,736
Still, I doubt Borderland General Ryumon
or Strategist Kaku
361
00:22:20,819 --> 00:22:24,531
would see that as "peace across the land."
362
00:22:25,032 --> 00:22:26,408
I suppose not.
363
00:22:30,704 --> 00:22:33,123
YAMATO
364
00:22:33,207 --> 00:22:35,626
FROG MEAT CURRY
365
00:22:38,921 --> 00:22:40,714
Though there are many tadpoles
under the sun,
366
00:22:40,798 --> 00:22:42,007
only a rare few become frogs.
367
00:22:42,091 --> 00:22:44,343
Lie on firewood and persuade the heavens.
368
00:22:44,426 --> 00:22:46,720
Therein lies the key
that determines victory.
369
00:22:48,222 --> 00:22:49,932
- I just remembered something urgent.
- What?
370
00:22:50,891 --> 00:22:52,559
Mr. Tsune, I'm so sorry.
371
00:22:52,643 --> 00:22:55,729
I know you invited me to dinner,
but I can't make it after all. Next time!
372
00:22:55,813 --> 00:22:59,608
Hey, where are you going, Misumi? Misumi!
373
00:22:59,691 --> 00:23:00,943
DESTROY AND ANNEX THE ENEMY STATE
