03x10 - Episode 10

[bunniefuu]

My Sultan, Bali Bey is here.

The news we expected is here.

Now you wait.

Let him in.

My Hakan.

Inshaallah it's the news
about the victory, Bali Bey.

With Allah's permission and
the strength of our swords,

...we managed to
captured the castle.

Thanks to Allah.

Yet we lost too many.

Sorry for our loss.

To Allah we belong,
and to him we return.

I'm sorry for your
loss, Dogan Agha.

How do you know, Bali Bey,
that Zeynel passed away?

I don't know about Zeynel Agha.

Who did you mean, Bali Bey?

Sahan...

Your brother Sahan joined
the caravan of martyrs.

My condolences, Dogan Agha.

Sahan...

I told you not to
do it, my brother.

I told you not to burn
my heart in flames!

I told you not to make me
mourn for my brother's death!

My Hunkar, they rioted to make
shahzade Ahmed ascend the throne.

Ahmed?

Yes, my Hunkar.

-Yet our shahzade...
-Ahmed...

-Where is he? -He passed away for
the sake of the state and the nation.

-Dogan Agha.
-The burden of the death is too heavy.

-Dogan Agha.
- I told you I would fall under it, Sahan!

Dogan, you won't fall.

Get up.

We won't fall.

Get up.

Even if our hearts are
wounded in a thousand parts,

...even if our hearts are
burned in never-ending flames,

...we will live for the people we
lost, for our brothers and for our blood.

-Did you hear me?
-My heart is a hot Ember.

How can we cool it
down, my Hunkar? How?

If they aren't avenged,
our grief will never end.

Look at me.

We will take a thousand heads
for revenge. We will avenge them...

...until the souls of our
martyrs rest in peace.

Until they rest in peace.

The castle of snakes
protected us for centuries.

Look at the cost
of your failure!

You don't understand. It was
a bitter victory for Mehmed.

Raiders, the wing of
his army, are gone now.

What about the knights we lost?
Mehmed will attack with his army soon.

After what he lost, he
can't attack us so easily.

Give me a chance
to defend the castle.

This time, it won't be hell for only his
raiders but Mehmed himself as well.

During the chance you were given, you lost first
the castle and then the gospel of Barnabas.

Barnabas?

Yes, your majesty.

Unfortunately, the gospel of
Barnabas stayed in the flames.

Emperor.

I don't know if it can make up for the
defeat in the castle of snakes, but...

...i have great news for you.

Now, there isn't a hole shakes can
hide in or a castle heathens can count on.

Thanks to Allah, my Sultan. Now
it's time for the head of the snake.

What should we do about
the head of the snake?

We should cut off, my Hunkar.

We should cut.

We paid a heavy price.

We lost too many
warriors, but...

Allah made us victorious.

Now there are no obstacles left
between us and the red apple.

Victory is just a step ahead.

We're very close
to the red apple.

My Hunkar, I think we are not.

-My Hunkar.
-Speak.

Uzun Hasan, the sovereign of the
Akkoyunlu state, prepared an army...

...to support his
relative Komnenos.

They say his cavalry
already hit the road.

Uzun Hasan?

Is he out of his mind?

How could he raise difficulties against our
cause due to his relation with heathens?

Is he so afraid that he
attempts to stab us in the back?

My Sultan, I know a lot about Akkoyunlu
thanks to the years I served in the east.

They have strong cavalry.

Just like you call the shots
in the west of Turkistan,

...he has influence in the
eastern provinces of Turkistan.

Evelallah, we can beat
him but it will take time.

By then, Pontus
will have gained time.

-Pope will send support, which will...
-Any news from Ishak Pasha?

No, my Hunkar.

Assemble the
council immediately.

As you order.

He sent Sahabettin to our Pope Nikolas
before the conquest of Constantinople.

And he sent Ishak to you.

Sahabettin and Zaganos
are Mehmed's lalas.

But Ishak is the
soul of the state.

What do you mean by the soul?

Ishak has deep
connections with Turkistan.

From what I've learned, he taught ancient
Turkish language Cagatay to Mehmed.

Ottomans are in the west.

Why is Mehmed curious about
the language of Turks in the east?

Because he believes he
is a ruler, not only a kaiser.

The visible side of the Pontus
w*r is trade, but its hidden side is the

ideal that Ishak tells him, to
become the only Hakan of all Turks.

While we want to send them back to
where they came from, to the steppe...

...they want to unite all the tribes
who draw bows and ride horses...

...and establish
world domination.

My curiosity has
grown even more.

Then let's see this Ishak Pasha.

Ottoman envoy Ishak Pasha.

Before his holiness Pope
Pius II, the bishop of Rome and

the only leader of the Christian
world, bow with respect.

I have come to deliver the decree
of the ruler of lands and seas...

...the conqueror
of Constantinople...

...the Hunkar of the Muslims,
the Hakan of the Turks...

...the refuge of the
oppressed of the world...

...Hadhrat Fatih
Sultan Mehmed Khan.

You should know...

...we, Muslims...

...only serve Allah...

...and only bow before him.

When the crusader armies stand before you,
will you still be able to say these words..

...or will you die of regret
for not bowing your head?

If anyone is going to die
of regret, it is you, Pius.

Alhamdulillah. We
are not afraid of death.

But, after the conquest
of Constantinople...

...now, when our Hunkar...

...turns Pontus
into Turks' lands...

...fear... that fear will go down
to your heart from your eyes.

We are about to form
the great crusader union.

Then we will bring your end.

The union you dreamed of..

...has been shattered in the claws of Sultan
Mehmed Khan, who you call the great eagle.

Because the relics you hoped would
bring unity to the Christian world...

...are now in the
treasury of our Hunkar.

Did Komnenos betray us?

You will not be able
to trick us with your lies.

Lies?

It is easy to find out
if it is the truth or not.

The message you will send to the men under
your command will make everything clear.

Did you come all this way
just to say these things?

No.

I came all this way
to fulfill our duty.

Now...

Despite all the dirty
alliances you have formed..

...the hostility you
have shown against us...

...and all the dirty
plans you have made...

...our mighty and merciful
Sultan Mehmed Khan...

...invites you, I mean the leader
of the entire Christian world...

...to salvation, to
Islam, the true religion.

I know what you
are trying to do.

But I will not fall
for your game.

Gather your things and get lost.

Ishak Pasha!

Take that rag you
laid before me!

It is the law of turkmens.

For those who were
cursed by Allah..

...black tents are built
and black carpets are laid.

Listen and pay attention.

Those who associate
partners with Allah...

...those who have gone astray
by accepting prophet Isa as lord...

...those who slander
our mother Maryam...

Your time is running out!

Let Ahl-I Salib
know this well...

Either you submit to the
Quran, to the shining religion...

...or...

...you stand before the armies
of Allah and get destroyed.

Are you sure?

Will they really support us?

If Akkoyun ruler Uzun
Hasan made a promise...

...he will keep it.

All Akkoyun armies have
started preparations for the battle.

He also placed the soldiers he
had previously sent after my father...

...under my command.

You have done a great
job, shahzade Suleyman.

A great job.

Now, if you allow me...

...I ..Will attack the two castles
on Mehmed's Akkoyunlu

passage route, the Kalayabende
and Yastura castles...

...and weaken Mehmed's power.

After Pontus is
saved, my first duty...

...will be to help you
take what you deserve..

...the Karamanoglu throne.

I look forward to
that day, emperor.

And when I become
Sultan Suleyman...

...you will still be my
greatest ally, emperor.

Kurtcu Agha, wait!

Where is your Bey?!

Wait, Dogan Agha!

I've defended..

...maybe forty Akinjis..

...with my life for years!

I've defended your life..

..Your money..

...and your back, when
you were betrayed, Bali!

However, you could not..

...defend my brother!

You could not protect him, Bali!

My condolences, Dogan Agha.

However, the matter is
different than you think.

Who cares about what happened!

My brother is dead! My brother!

They showed up at the woods.

They followed us.

I sent him to you
along with a soldier.

However, he tricked
him too and came back.

Couldn't you protect him there?

Didn't you think I
trusted you with his life?

Didn't you think that he was..

...Kurtcu's only living
family member?

Didn't you think
about that, Bali Bey?

Didn't you think?

I understand your
pain, Dogan Agha.

However, destiny..

...has found its way.

I know your heart burns.

This flame will not go
away with time as well.

This fire can only be
doused with vengeance.

Now, Pontus is the only debtor.

We will both have
our vengeance..

...and close all books.

You speak true, Bali Bey.

May you prosper.

However, I have..

..Another book to close.

Eyvallah.

I trust Ishak Pasha fully.

He must've sent the message..

...of our wrath and the bad
news to Pope, evelallah.

Now, I will listen to you.

My Sultan.

Akkoyunlu's cavalry
forces are apparent.

He has tens and
thousands of cavalries.

We must wait for the spring
to send Rumeli Sipahis..

...against Akkoyunlu forces
and march towards Trabzon.

I agree with Mahmud
Pasha, my Sultan.

If Akkoyunlu will come to
Pontus to support them..

We need to divide the army..

...or wait for spring.

We need to do careful
planning and perfect execution.

With your command, the
seas are burning, my Hunkar.

Infidels are backing up.

However, Akkoyunlu
danger is a real one.

If Uzun Hasan
comes with his armies..

...we cannot predict
where will the wind blow.

Pontus will fall..

Until Uzun Hasan comes!

How, my Hunkar?

The influence of Akkoyunlus..

...ends at Koyunhisar.

Our castles between
Koyunhisar and Trabzon.

If they both hold on..

...and show resistance..

...we can take Trabzon
before Uzun Hasan arrives.

The rest is Alucra mountains...

...and Kadirga fields.

Send word to shahzade Bayezid..

...the SanjakBey of am as ya
for the fortification of the castles.

Make your preparations.

You go back to your
fleet. Return to your duty.

As when we march
down from Macka..

...Pontus will be left stuck
in between two lines of fire.

As you command, my Hunkar.

You may leave.

Stay put, Voivoda.

Stay put.

What is it, Dogan Agha?

How did you get in?

I became..

...a shadow.

As if this is a dream.

What do you want?

I came here to close off..

...the Zeynel matter
once and for all.

That matter is closed in
the audience of Sultan.

The matters of guild..

...is only opened by their Agha..

...and closed by their Agha.

The dagger of janissary..

...is honed to be struck
the heart of treachery.

With the soul..

..And the fire of the guild.

What a shame.

Our dagger has rusted
as if it struck a rock.

It became dull.

However, your dagger..

...seems pretty..

...sharp.

Just like your insight.

You have opened our eyes.

You made the traitor..

...among us apparent.

I came here to thank you.

May you prosper.

Dogan Agha.

May you prosper.

Eyvallah.

Here, brother.

Mustafa?

When did you come?

-You seem ready also.
-I've been watching you.

However, you hadn't noticed.

Sorry.

I was thinking about
our Sultan's orders.

That is why I
couldn't notice you.

You look mighty, just
like our ancestor Bayezid.

You speak as if you saw our ancestor
Bayezid, may he rests in peace.

I didn't see him, however..

...I know how bravely he fought.

You can be like
that too, brother.

However, why did you
wear your armor and sword?

A soldier does not leave his
brother alone. I came to support you.

May you prosper, brother.

May you prosper. However..

...our Sultan only commanded
me. You stay here at sanjak, alright?

Are you ignoring me too?

I got on the way for w*r, however,
father sent me here before it happened.

And now you're
keeping me away too.

You never get enough of
conquests do you, Mustafa?

Tell me, was it me entering
the Isfendiyar castle?

I always dreamt of it. We
couldn't fight side by side.

Don't leave me here.

Let me come with you, brother.

Take aim! Bismillah! Fire!

You see what kind of
situation we are in right now?

They didn't stop firing once..

...for days.

We continue to sh**t
towards their walls, Pasha.

Every cannonball strikes
an infidel's heart in Pontus.

Our Sultan and the
army will be here soon.

We shall not stop until our three-Crescent
banners are seen on Pontus walls.

Valiants of the sea!

The lions of sea! Don't stop!

Go ahead!

For the glory of almighty Allah!

Fight, my warriors! Fight!

Allah-u akbar! Allah-u akbar!

Here we go! Bismillah!

Fire!

I'm giving you
almost a whole army.

Don't be worrying, emperor.

We'll destroy first the
castles and then Mehmed.

Remember this, Suleyman.

Battle is hell.

And only the cold-blooded
can win the battle.

Don't let yourself be
overwhelmed by your ambitions.

Are you the warriors
to follow me?

Troops are awaiting
you at the city gate.

Good.

Come on. Time to fight!

Soldiers!

Emperor.

Which one is the first, brother?
Castle of Belde or castle of Yastura?

What would be our
Sultan's answer, Mustafa??

Even if a single hair of my beard knows
what is in my mind, I will cut it off.

He would say that.

O the soldiers of Mohammad!

O my heroic army!

We had a successful
campaign on Constantinople!

Now I it's time for Trabzon!

Every campaign is harder
than the preceding one for us!

Because this way
leads to the red apple!

We lost too much for this cause.

Some lost brothers and
some lost son-like fighters!

Today, they won't
put roses on our way!

The cliffs will open their mouths
and attempt to swallow us!

The steep mountains
will rise against us, but...

When I look at you,

...I see the hearts to endure every hardship
and the courage to fight every trouble!

Because the way
leading to the red apple...

...can't be passed with
the soft-hearted ones!

To sacrificing our
heads and lives!

And to reaching
the victory in the end!

Ya Allah, bismillah!

Allah-u akbar! Allah-u akbar!

Allah-u akbar! Allah-u akbar!

Allah-u akbar! Allah-u akbar!

My nation, whose name I bear
and whose history I have honored...

Hear.

Listen, my sons...

...and honorable
daughters. Listen.

This is how our
journey of w*r began.

On that day, the
rain witnessed us.

Wild storms were striking
down on us from the sky.

The flood was blocking our way.

We kept walking, used
our hearts as shields.

That day, the
lightning witnessed us.

It was shining upon
us like a sword of fire.

Its heavy thunder
shook us on all sides.

We walked like
arrows shot from a bow.

That day, the wind witnessed us.

It struck us like
a relentless whip.

Our bones would
freeze from the cold.

We kept walking
with fire in our hearts.

That day, the steep
slopes witnessed us.

They were even
tougher than the castles.

They stood like an
insurmountable wall.

We walked carrying
our hearts on our backs.

That day, the
mountains witnessed us.

On our shoulders was the
heavy burden of a da'wah.

Some were crushed under it.

Cliffs swallowed some of them.

Those we walked shoulder to shoulder
with were taken from us before our eyes.

Come on!

That day, the soil witnessed us.

It was a swamp leading
to death on our way.

It became rough
like a sea of mud.

We walked as if tearing
through it with our lives.

Come on!

We buried our pains in the
hearts of the mountains...

...and walked as if
walking to death itself.

The Kadirga
plateau witnessed us.

It saw how we overcame the hard
paths, the pain, and many hardships.

On steep mountains, difficult
roads, in rain and storms...

...we left our voices.

So that centuries
later, our children...

...would hear what we went through for our state,
our religion, and the property of our people.

That day, we saw our
red apple on the horizon.

We've walked on his path and
left what is trusted for tomorrow.

To shine the path of..

...our future children.

The valley of Gelevara.

The home of eagles..

...where lions lie.

A claw of death
between two mountains.

A hell, where
owners are hunters..

...and those who
enter are hunted.

However, Mehmed's
army is big, Draven.

Do you think will he be a prey?

He cannot pass here covering
ground. He must squeeze through.

They will stand together.

We will lay ambush at foothill.

-And destroy them with a single attack.
-Alright.

Then, we have to hurry.

Because Mehmed will
be here before nightfall.

Start preparations! We
do not have much time!

-Come on, knights!
-As you command.

Mehmed..

...I've prepared such
an ambush for you.

I will make this
place your grave..

...and Bury Kurtcu near you.

May Allah accept your prayers.

-May Allah accept your prayers, my Sultan.
-Aameen.

A harsh path awaits
us after Kadirga plateau.

You say what awaits us is
harsher than what we left behind?

We've dealt with
nature until now.

From now on, our enemies
will have traps prepared for us.

Do not worry, Pasha.

Allah is the greatest of all.

Come on.

Make way! Shahzade
Hadhrat Mustafa!

Welcome to the castle of Belde!

You honor us, my shahzade!

Thank you.

We would've loved to see your
brother, shahzade Bayezid also.

Will he not visit?

You know my brother
will come here..

...but not know that Akkoyunlu
army will pass here also?

We do, my shahzade.

Was there a mistake we did?

Look there.

My brother Bayezid is there.

My shahzade.

-You.

Are you preparing yourselves
against Akkoyunlu like this?

Forgive us, my shahzade.

We awaited your arrival..

Even if I forgive you,
the enemy will not.

Even if they do,
shahzade Bayezid will not.

Go.

We will speak.

A lion's cubs are
lions too, mashallah.

We've positioned our soldiers.
They're preparing the traps.

Will there be
others than us here?

Someone who may notice us?

Only goat herders. However,
they will not come this close.

Still, keep your eyes open.

Don't let anything wander
around without us knowing.

I do not understand why we
brought these captives here.

They will be a part
of this hell here.

We will burn them..

...and make them run to Mehmed.

What are you doing?!

Who would burn a man alive?! Are
you making kebabs for the wolves?

We are the devils from hell.
Haven't you learned that?!

Enough of this!

Don't rush your death.

We will march to
martyrdom with honor!

You don't even know how to k*ll!

I like your enthusiasm
about death.

Don't worry.

I will have you
taste the best one.

Not only you, but
Mehmed and his army..

...will taste the best of deaths.

Only Kurtcu Dogan.

He is mine.

Do you understand?

I will have my revenge.

My brother.

Can shoes endure all this way?

Of course not.

We're too tired to go or fight.

We should set up
the tents and rest.

If we are to rest,

...we rest under
the ground, Serhad!

Soldiers are exhausted, my Agha.

So are the animals.

We would face the death
for you without hesitation.

Yet soldiers are
messed up, my Agha.

I lost my brother,
the apple of my eye!

I see nothing but red!

Before we avenge
the people we lost,

...we will not rest!

Leave the soldiers
alone, Kurtcu.

It's been a long time, Zagnos.

Couldn't you learn yet?

Learn what, Kurtcu?

Only Agha has the command
over the soldiers of the hearth.

And Allah has the command
of death. Don't you know that?

You can do nothing for
the ones who passed away.

Nobody can help
them. Neither can you.

You think being hard on
yourself will bring him back?

I see your grief.

I feel it in my heart, but...

.I won't let the
grief eat you alive.

It is my heart to be eaten.

It is my life to be
wasted, Zagnos.

I have no wishes from you.

I know that.

You and I had disagreements
in politics and ideas.

But this is different.

This is about losing a life.

Losing a brother.

You and I maybe couldn't
even share bread, but...

If you let me,

...I want to share the
sorrow in your heart.

Maybe, I can't take your
brother Sahan's place.

But I can be a
good brother for you.

Eyvallah.

I am sorry for your loss.

Thank you. May you live long.

My Sultan, allow me.

I'll handle it.

Thank you.

My Sultan... your foot...

I'll go and call the
chief of doctors.

The doctors will take
care of our soldiers.

You... did you walk
all this way on that foot?

Did you think I was not serious when I said
the path of a ghazi is a path of hardship?

Didn't Hadhrat prophet [PBUH], whose
name I carry as a symbol of honor, say...

"The Efendi of my ummah is
the one who serves my ummah."?

If we are going to lead the people,
we must bear their hardships.

If we are going to rule the people,
we must face the struggles, but...

...we must not complain.

Why are you here?

Molla Lutfi wants to
see you, my Sultan.

Let him in.

Lutfi. -My Hunkar.

May it be good.

You are carrying the
world under your arm.

My Hunkar.

Trabzon and its surroundings...

And this is the passage in the
valley we hope to pass, my Hunkar.

My Hunkar...

The most comprehensive chronicle
about this region is written by Panaretos.

According to Panaretos...

...when the Roman
emperor Cornelius...

...tried to pass through the
passage we hope to pass...

...Allah knows, along with 50,000 of his
soldiers, he was buried there, my Hunkar.

That's what was written.

Lutfi come. Get closer.

You know the maps
you read today...

I drew them with my own hands
when I was a shahzade, Lutfi.

Sure, my Hunkar. I
am not... I would never...

I...

...am neither the
Roman King Cornelius...

...nor the person before me is the
emperor Dionysos who defeated him.

My Hunkar.

Let alone a shahzade, even if
you have to welcome a Sultan...

... you will prioritize
the castle's defense.

This castle is really
important for our state.

Uzun Hasan's armies
will attack this castle first.

It is impossible for their cannonballs to
pass these steep slopes, my shahzade.

Then..

...there will be a siege.

Tell me, commander.

Are you ready for a siege?

When Uzun Hasan comes,
you might have to resist for days.

Like the swords, the supplies
must also be arranged accordingly.

Our warehouses are full,
especially of legume, my shahzade.

We have enough supplies to
last a few months, thanks to Allah.

Is this...

...all you have?

Our other warehouses
are also full, my shahzade.

We sent a part of our supplies to
Yastura castle before you came here.

Good.
-When will go to Yastura, brother?

We will leave after we finish
inspecting this castle, brother.

Then let's check the
other warehouses.

Vlad... are you here to tell
me we should return as well?

No.

How are you? Are you alright?

Eyvallah.

I haven't heard this
question for a long time.

What about you?

I've seen worse days.

Are you complaining Voivode?

Never.

I would never complain.

I am not like them, Mehmed.

Your pashas tell
you where to go...

...and how to go to that place.

I just ask you when to go.

They are the statesmen...

...but I am your brother.

You are my brother who even
knows what I hide deep down my heart.

Eyvallah.

But I...

...can also see the things
deep down in your heart.

I am also your brother.

You didn't ask for a doctor.
-Come on. Go now.

That's why you are the conqueror.
- I said go...

I've seen worse days...

Stop complaining!

Have our soldiers eaten?

Meal time is over, my Sultan.

I think everyone is ready.

May it be good,
Yusuf. What is wrong?

My Sultan..

I am alright.

You can leave.
Wait for me outside.

It is time for gaza, Mehmed.

We have a great dream
and a Trabzon to take.

Ya Allah...

-My Sultan?
-Pasha?

Why did you take off your armor?

Where is the council of pashas?

I thought we would
rest here a bit.

What are you saying,
Pasha? What resting?

Didn't you say that we
have traps awaiting us?

Come on, we do not have time.

My Sultan, we've been
on the road for days.

The army is tired.

Even if we arrive
Pontus fronts like this..

...we cannot succeed in battle.

Uzun Hasan's
armies are not resting.

Komnenos is not
just waiting for us.

While Pope is
waiting to choke us..

...how can we rest?

My Sultan, you
speak truth. However..

...the army has been
walking for days.

They are losing their minds.

We could not even find the bodies
of our soldiers who fell on the way.

Pasha!

I don't understand.

What are you saying?

My Sultan.

Soldiers are not ready
for another march.

If we are late, we lose! What
part of it do you not understand?!

And if we go, we
may lose and army.

My Sultan, please understand.
-We have to go, Pasha!

We only have
one step to victory!

Whose side are you on?!

I am on the side of the state!

That word.

I've heard it from
Candarli Pasha the last.

You know his end well.

I do not fear for my
life, Mehmed Han!

An army that has lost its
condition cannot prevail!

That will be our end!

Those who think of their
end can not prevail, Pasha!

The path to victory
is filled with traps!

We only need some
rest, some patience!

Didn't I tell you that my
way is filled with thorns?!

Didn't I tell you, those who
love me should follow me?!

I told you that no
backing up! No fearing!

However, you can stay, Pasha!

Go lie down on
your comfortable bed.

Rest as you like!

Lie down in fear!

I do not have time to sleep..

...nor to sleep!

Don't go, Mehmed Han!

If you go, the army will not have
the condition to stand behind you!

Salamun alaikum.

Alaikum salam.

Alaikum salam, Pasha.

Are there any news
from our Hunkar?

Why?

The army is tired.

Let them rest a little..

...have something to bite.

Let us tell you here.

Mahmud Pasha is with
the Hunkar about this matter.

Do not worry.

Eyvallah.

Our Hunkar knows best.

-Eyvallah.
-Don't worry, valiants!

Eyvallah, Pasha.

Are you hearing yourself?

Their knees has no power!
Their eyes has no light!

The soldiers are spirited out!

Aren't their wounds healed?

Aren't they fed?

Haven't they rested long enough?

You rule the realm
but live in the tent.

I'm your eyes and ears. Don't
shut your eyes to the truth.

I know what the truth is!

Your eyes can see
and ears can hear.

But your faith is blind
and your diligence is deaf.

I need diligence,
faith and spirit.

I started a path, Mahmud.

No power but Azrael, may Allah's mercy be
upon him, can take me away from this path.

You keep saying you care
about the state. I am the state!

When I go out now,
open your eyes and watch.

And see if soldiers freshen
or not when they are spirited!

Attention!

Satilmis Agha, what?
Are you setting up a tent??

To be honest, we are
a little tired, my Sultan.

You are tired?

I am, my Sultan.

I remember the first
day you entered my tent.

They said you
were crack-brained.

But I saw the man's
faith and obstinacy.

Didn't you open the way
to Constantinople for me?

But you are right.

You are tired. Go back then.

Go back to kastamonu.

Go back to your village.

Tell the mothers who lost sons,
brothers and husbands for this cause...

...that you are tired.

Go ahead.

Go ahead.

Thank you for
everything. Go ahead.

I will never go back, my Sultan.

My lalas.

I appreciate the things
you helped me gain.

But you are tired.

If you want to go, I won't
say anything to stop you.

Go to the Taurus mountains.

Go to Cukurova, plains
and the Yoruk tribes!

And tell Yoruks who sent everything they had
when the state demanded blood and life...

...that you are tired!

Go, Sehabettin!

Come on, go ahead.

Your path is my path, my Hunkar.

Always.

Eyvallah.

You are tired too, huh, Yusuf?

How could the descendants of
Seyyid ghazi from Malatya get tired?

Go to Huseyin ghazi!

And then go to Darende and
kneel before father Somuncu.

And tell him,
'I'm tired, father'.

And you, Muhsin?

What can we even do if
Muhsins from Sivas get tired?

Go to Elmali then.

Gather the men of
Sarkisla around you.

Look into their eyes.

And if you can find the
courage, tell them you are tired.

But you can't go anywhere.

I trusted you for my life!

Will you leave
your Sultan alone?

No!

Bali Bey! Are you tired too?

Go tell the men of
Rumelia who stand against...

...heathens like the mountains of Balkan
and whose blood flows like tuna river...

...that you are tired!

Speak, Ali Bey.

Don't keep silent, Samil Bey!

Go to Erzurum.

Go to Abdurrahman ghazi who
made the region a homeland for Turks.

Gather the brave men of Erzurum.

And tell the white-wearing
mothers and sisters watching you...

...that you are tired!

These lands have been
sealed with our sweat!

We buried fear,
exhaustion and sorrow here!

Nobody can get tired!

Nobody can give up!

You shall believe!
You shall conquer!

We have to be victorious!

And martyrdom awaits
those who believe!

O fighters of Mohammad [PBUH]!



Now it's time to embrace
the death and make history!

If we break our promises, may
swords be painted with our blood!

May swords be painted with our blood!
May swords be painted with our blood!

So Bayezid is going to the
castle of Yastura, is that right?

And with such
a small unit.

Good.

Who can save you
from me now, Bayezid?

We're here for the
castle of Belde.

-I decide where you are and why.
-Right.

Soldiers!

March with me now!

We're going to
Yastura to k*ll Bayezid!

Come on.

Come on, girl. Come on.

Come on.

Come on, out.

Come on, out. Get out.

Mother.

Mother!

I'm coming, Eren!
I'm coming, son.

-I'm here, my dear.
-Give me my things. I need to go.

You aren't going
to that valley, right?

Whenever you go there,
I feel so afraid for you.

If those goats don't eat
the herbs in the valley,

...their meat
won't be delicious.

-Fine. Take care of yourself, my dear son.
-Alright, mother. Alright.

Eren! Haven't you
deliver Hatice's pots yet?

Take them with you.

If you don't take
them, nobody will.

You need me again, mother?

I always do, my boy.

Right, mother. But...

At least once, I need to hear
'I'm glad I have you, Eren'.

I'm glad I have you, Eren.

My dear mother.

Here you go.

Go!

-See you.
-Good bye.

See you.

The infamous Gelevara'?

The famous valley of
hell is here, my Hunkar.

If we can cross this valley..

...we will do the evening prayer
at Pontus wall fronts inshaallah.

-However..
-However?

It may shorten lives..

...as it shortens the road.

It is very suitable for traps.

This is the area that I
told you to be trapped.

If Komnenos did not
set traps until here..

...he must've tied all his
hope to us crossing this valley.

Do we not have another
road that we can follow?

Of course there is, Pasha.

It adds around
ten days to our trip.

-It is both safe and..
-We do not have that much time, Pasha.

-Bali Bey.
-Yes, my Sultan?

Take Akinjis with you.

Scout the valley.

Let us know
if
there are any devils..

...that awaits us.

As you command, my Sultan.

Sir!

Preparations have been made.

Draven.

What are your plans?
You still haven't told me.

They will be faced with a terrible
hell when they enter the valley.

And mountains
will fall upon them.

Then, we will fall upon them..

...from both sides
and be their deaths.

Alright.

Don't you think a
w*r wolf like Mehmed..

...haven't thought about how
dangerous this valley can be?

If he did, he will send
a scouting party first.

Then, we shall take precautions.

What are we waiting for?

Or all of our plans
will be disrupted.

We are the hunter here, Pedri.

Do not worry.

Those who hunt
here shall be hunted.

Look at you. It's
been some days.

I would've thrown you away
if
my father didn't leave you to me.

What is happening?

Since all those birds flew..

...it must be a fox or a jackal.

Let me see.

Are you Akinjis?

We are Akinjis, but
who are you, my Valiant?

My name is Eren,
from Bulbuloglus.

Eren from Bulbuloglus. Why are you
in this forest? What are you doing here?

A true Valiant is born alone,
lives alone, and dies alone.

Don't you have a family?
-Sure I do!

I have Idris Agha, Fadime
sister and Cemal brother.

But these are the
ones left behind.

What about the ones
who left, brother?

Aybuke sister passed
away when I was a child.

I don't know in which battle
my father was martyred.

My Necmeddin Agha was a teacher.

Bandits treacherously
martyred him.

I am sorry for your
loss, my Valiant.

Thank you my Bey.

I've been praying for so long...
I wanted to become an Akinji...

...to take my Agha's
and father's revenge.

Allah brought you here.
Please take me with you.

I will be your companion and
share your trouble, my Bey.

I noticed you at once when you
made those birds fly over there.

What birds?

Weren't you there when
the birds started flying?

Ferhat!

Take positions.
Gather the Akinjis..

...we will go to that place
with our brother Eren.

Mashaallah to you my Valiant.

You are leading Mehmed
Agha's soldiers now...

...and in the future, you
will be his soldier inshaallah.

Inshaallah my Bey, inshaallah.
-My lion...

Come on. Come on.

And this is our ammunition
warehouse, my shahzade.

Isn't this too much ammunition
for such a small border fortress?

The necessary aid for the castle of
Belde goes from here, my shahzade.

Therefore, we need to
have enough ammunition.

Good. Good.

Is that all... or do
you have more?

We have one more warehouse.

My shahzade.

What happened?
-Shahzade Suleyman...

This is the place I was telling you.
-Thank you Eren.

Thanks to you.

Ambush!

Do not let them
come close, valiants!

We are leaving, come on. -What?

They know we are here
now. Let's just k*ll all of them!

That's better, Petri.

They will either follow this route and fall into
our hands or they will follow the other route...

...and fall into the
hands of Akkoyunlu.

Mehmed will decide.
Come on, my knights!

Come on! Hurry up!

Mustafa, now!
-As you order, my Bey!

-Ferhat Agha!
-Ferhat!

Ferhat! -Brother... brother!
-Ferhat!

Dastards... they ran away.

Come on!

Ferhat! -Brother, get up!
-My Bey, they ran away.

It was a treacherous
plan, Bali Bey.

There were too many men. They retreated
so they wouldn't reveal their position.

This way leads to hell.

The qiyamah.

So you are the warrior named Eren who guided
the Akinjis and revealed the enemy's plan.

Lift your head, Eren.

You did something that should
not make you bow your head...

...but stand tall.

A nation, a state that
has brave sons like you...

...will never lose.

Thank you, my Sultan.

Bali Bey, tell me.

As you ordered...

...we were on the way
to the valley, my Hakan.

But the infidel laid ambush.

Inshaallah we don't
have many martyrs.

Two Akinjis became martyrs.

We responded quickly, but...

...they ran away, my Pasha.

But they did not run away because
they were scared, my Hakan.

They apparently made
a treacherous plan.

They wanted to
lure us I into a trap.

-To avoid...
-What do you think, Mahmud Pasha?

My Sultan...

What Mahmud Pasha
hesitates to say is...

...that this road is foggy. There
are many traps on the way.

We wonder if we should
follow the other route.

You are right.

The road to the valley is
difficult, the valley is foggy, but...

...there aren't gardens
of roses on the other way.

On the contrary, 50,000 cavalrymen
coming from the steppe are waiting for us.

They are riding their
horses to destroy us.

We went through so many
hardships until we reached here.

Karamanoglu, then...

...the Pope, Isfendiyar. We
cannot even count the names.

But now, there is
only one valley to pass.

I know. The valley
is full of traps.

The valley is not safe.

The valley is
difficult to reach.

But if we don't take the valley
route, it will cost us ten days.

And in ten days, Akkoyunlu
will have arrived in Trabzon.

And this will leave us in a
position between two fires.

And then...

...we will be defeated, and the
infidel will have gained a victory.

If we pass this valley...

...the honor and
victory will be ours.

Now you tell me, my pashas.

What should we do?

Undoubtedly, you hear what we don't
hear and you see what we don't see.

We will always walk the
path you order us to walk.

Is there anyone who is unwilling or
opposed to going through the valley?

Then, "'ya Allah" companions...

Ya Allah, warriors...

Ya Allah...

Traitor!

Came with infidels beside him!

I did, Bayezid.

My nephew Mustafa is here also!

Bayezid! If you surrender..

...only you will die!

However, if you
do not surrender..

...all of you will die.

Your call.

We went on this road
with our coffin, Suleyman!

If death awaits you now..

...it is cold to us!

This castle Yastura
had forty soldiers, right?

Let's round it to a
hundred with your soldiers.

My shahzade?

And we..

...are not that crowded.

Only five thousand soldiers.

What do you say, Bayezid?

How will this end?

It seems they did not teach you!

Ottomans..

...do not surrender!

They clash and die..

...if needed, however..

...they never surrender!

If we start the attack..

...the outcome is apparent.

If you do not
think of yourself..

...do you not think of my
nephew Mustafa also?

You know well that a fire
does not discriminate trees.

If you make the mistake
of clashing with me..

...may Allah prevent, I
may not protect my nephew.

He may die, just like you will.

You coward!

I do not have the life to give
away to a coward like you!

Mustafa. Alright.

Then, I take it you
made your decision.

Soldiers, ready!

I hear the footsteps
of the fire inside me.

It calls my enemies
to the center of hell.

They finally came.

They've entered
the claws of death.

Soldiers!

Take positions!

Keep your eyes open!

The arrows of death are drawn.

Come to the center of hell.

My fire is eager to burn you.

A narrow pass, my Hunkar!
It may be dangerous!

Soldiers, take position!

They are taking measures.

Everything is set,
sir. What now?

Horses.

Horses.

They are Pontus cavalry!

Protect Sultan!

Protect Sultan!

This is an obvious ambush,
my Sultan. What is your order?

Wait.

Shall we start?

Wait.

My Sultan, if there is an ambush
on the top too, we will be devastated.

I said wait, Pasha.

-Archers!
-Watch out!

-Sir.
-Wait.

Dogan Agha!

This is a raider!

We haven't sent
any raiders there!

These are the soldiers who were
taken prisoner in the castle of snakes.

Vile dastards.

Shields! Prepare the shields!

-Protect Sultan!
-Prepare the shields!

-Take cover!
-Protect Sultan!

Mehmed!

-My Hunkar! Protect Sultan!
-Protect Sultan!

Is this hell I see?

Am I surrounded
by the fire of defeat?

Or the smoke of the loss?

Headless helmets and
abandoned swords are scattered.

Where are my fighters who have
strong hearts and sharp courage?

Where are the reaching
hands of friends?

Where are the fellows who I always supported
and the friends who fought shoulder to shoulder?

A foggy way ahead of me.

I'm surrounded by the
ambushes of the cruel enemies.

The red apple for which I
fought against the death...

Where is the red apple?

As long as the head of the
way stands, the way never ends!

As long as we keep
our heads, we never die!

The red apple is on
the tip of our swords!

-Ya Allah!
-Ya Allah!?

Ya Allah! Ya Allah!

Let the gates of
hell be open!
