Excuse me your Reverence.
Where are we going, Daeng?
Back to where you live.
For 13 months the Burmese troops had surrounded the entire area of Ayutthaya.
After 7 months the people of Ayutthaya were no longer united against them.
Many had surrendered. Many had run away in fear of their lives.
Some even killed each other.
In any case there was a resistance of local warriors.
The Burmese called them the Yantric Cloth Bandits.
Eventually their fame came to the attention of the leader of the Burmese Troops.
Nay Nien and he decided it was time to annihilate them.
Your excellency Suki have a look at these two.
Kill them!
This is a fucking Yantric cloth of the Monk and he wasn't an immortal warrior.
Up until now you have not brought me the Monk Phadee's head.
I don't need this guy as my opponent.
Sir Nay Nien we've never seen his face yet.
I'll give you some warriors to help you find him for me. Don't screw it up this time.
I called all of you here to let you know that
I've lost contact with ayutthaya for a long time already.
I don't know about the outcome of the battle.
That's why I need all of you to decide what we should do next.
Ban Huay Dang has 200 men.
If we join up with other villagers we might withstand the Burmese.
Don't you guys know Bang Rajan villagers were just slaughtered.
I think we'd better hide.
Whatever the Burmese want…
just let them have it.
No way!
So you just want to let the Burmese kill all of us?
No way! We all have to fight them together.
We have the Reverence with us.
We'll defeat them for sure.
I don't think so!
- I don't agree. - No! No!
Stop it! What's got into you?
This is not the time to argue. aren't we supposed to unite?
Wait! You aren't Bhikky Thammachot.
I wish I could have a yantric cloth.
Bhikku Kong's amulet is also sacred.
Your stubbornness will get all of us killed.
I think ayutthaya might be finding a way to fight back.
If I get any update at all… I'll summon all of you here again.
Phya Tos…
You're a good person that people always depend on.
K… come and get your blessings.
Kill all of them… even the Monk.
The ayutthaya army must be stopped at all costs!
Master Suki must remove them from the forest
Neither of them is the monk you're looking for.
Follow them!
Get them!
Go after them… fast!
Thank you for saving us otherwise we'd be dead.
Don't mention it.
Are all of you yantric cloth warriors?
Then Bhikku Thammachot must be with you.
Can we join your village?
These children are orphans.
I'm sure the Monk will take care of them.
We can't go with you.
Take care of my kid. I'll be back after the war.
I don't want to go with them.
I don't want to go with them… Dad.
I don't want to go…
She's been crying all the way… she must be tired.
How could a father leave his child behind?
He also lost his wife in the battle field.
I don't think he's gonna survive.
Death is not what they're scared of.
As long as they can get back to their loved ones.
Impossible.
So where are the Burmese now? I don't think he's gonna make it.
If we could eat the Burmese we wouldn't starve.
They're not your family so you can say that.
What would you do if you lost your wife?
No problem… I'd just get a new one.
I wish that was true.
The first thing you'd do when you got to the camp is screw her.
How many years have we been living in hiding?
Living your lives by robbing the Burmese…
Even though this is our own land.
We've never stood on it with any pride.
Yes… It's so long that I've almost forgotten what it was
like to see the entire village get killed by the Burmese.
That time Kiew and Eiang were nearly killed.
That time if Man and Daeng didn't go help maybe leng would be dead already.
After the war, I'll find some good land, to make a paddy field.
I've already found some beautiful land around Kok Galud village.
You guys should see it.
By the way,
when are you gonna marry Chaba, Daeng?
I know she's been waiting for you a long time.
You can only ask for her hand from her family.
When I return home, I'll find a good time to propose to her.
That's my man.
Then you'll know how much happiness you can have when you have a wife.
All night long. You know? All night long?
Daddy…
Daddy… Don't leave me.
Daddy… Don't leave me.
Ne day your dad will come back to you.
Look! Mun and his men are back.
Where have you been? I thought I'd never see you again.
I got caught by the Burmese. These guys helped me out.
That's all right. Let's pay respect to the Reverence first.
It's good that you've returned safely.
Every time you go, I can't help worrying about you.
We rescued these people when we confronted the Burmese at Huay Yai.
Make sure they have somewhere to stay.
Kom… Keo… Let's go.
- Let's split up - You go get the supplies.
That hurts, Chabe!
How did I know that it was you?
Why did you do that? I thought it was someone else.
So if it's me, you'll let me do anything, won't you?
Daeng I don't mean that at all.
Let me go someone may see and tell my mother.
I want you to marry me.
I've never said I wanted to marry you.
My mother would never approve.
So that means if and when she agrees then you'll be mine?
Why are you trying to rush everything?
I'll be your wife sooner or later.
Finding food is getting harder and harder.
Burmese soldiers are all over the place.
Aren't you gonna eat anything?
I have to go check the provisions to see if it's divided up equally.
You two can have my share.
Here's Saled-pangpon herbs, Father.
When we passed through Thong Lhang forest we found it all over the place.
You're such a good gatherer.
The captives say a contingent of Burmese troops is nearing here.
I think we've gotta move again.
If they're really coming, we'll think about it then.
Mun took a lot of captives to our hideout.
I'm afraid that we don't have enough food.
Can you let them die without food?
Alright, Kom. We can still handle it, can't we?
The more forces we have, the better.
Ah… Daeng…
You're still up. Is something troubling you?
How can you tell?
You raised me since I was a kid. So why shouldn't I know?
Our hideout is getting more people every day.
We're running out of food.
We need medicine as well.
I'm counting on you and Mun.
Don't worry about it, your reverence.
But I need your help for something.
I need your help to tell me what's the best day for me to marry Chaba?
Put a lot of herbs on him.
Mai, why are you crying like a baby?
Hang in there. You'll get better very soon.
Mun… we 're having a hard time finding food now.
We'll try to find some more.
Mun… there's too many people here now for us to take care of.
Just leave the wounded prisoners to die.
If you keep taking care of them, we'll starve to death.
- You know… where can they go? - You can't save all their lives.
Mark my words, Mun.
Have we got enough rice for everyone?
Go ahead. I'm not hungry yet.
You've gotta eat a lot.
How long are you gonna be away this time?
I told you…
There's too many people to feed. No matter how much you find it won't be enough.
Those people eat a lot.
Mom… the first time we came here you never spoke like that.
Don't you think our lives were just as tough as theirs before?
Capture them!
Kill anyone who resists.
The Burmese caravan is coming this way.
We're Thai.
Why are you dressed like the Burmese?
They forced us to.
Why should let them steal before we do?
Which bastard dares to rob the supplies before me?
Hold on.
Look! The Burmese are here!
Follow me!
What should we do?
Sir… do you remember me?
Of course, you're the soldier who deserted.
The warrior of Phya Thot.
Who the hell are these stupid soldiers?
Watch your mouth or you'll be beheaded.
I appreciate your help. I've heard about you for a long time.
I can't believe I met you today.
Is the Monk OK?
Do you know him too?
The sacrifices of Bang Rajan villages…
Everybody knows about that.
Sir…
30 of our soldiers died.
First we take care of the wounded. ur next move we can discuss later.
Mun… are you sure that
we should take all these wounded troops back to the village?
No comments yet. Be the first to leave one.
