The story and characters in the series is inspired by our history.
No living beings were harmed while filming this series.
The army isn't here!
[EPISODE 21]
Come on, hurry up!
Up, up!
Surround them!
Don't let them escape!
I defeated your army before it came here, Sultan Nur ad-Din.
Now it's your turn.
We approached the door. The army will attack soon, let's go.
Don't be in a hurry, Saladin.
Are you going to go without taking them?
I told you that you won't get out of here.
And now it's time to die!
I gave you and your loved ones a chance to live.
All I wanted you to do was pledge allegiance to me.
But you preferred to die instead of submission.
Don't speak with confidence because you still have your head.
Neither I nor myself have run out of words yet.
Do you trust your army?
It isn't here and won't come.
You are now face to face with death!
Archers!
I'm here, sister!
Karategin!
Brave ones!
The captivity ended.
Now is the time to be free, Karategin.
Uncle Dervish! Oh!
Kill them all!
There is nowhere to run, Saladin.
Either you give up now, or we'll kill them first and then we'll kill you.
You'll never be able to escape where I fell into the trap.
Really?
Soldiers, kill them all!
Come on, hurry up!
-Attack! -Kill them all!
Disguise as Crusaders and be careful.
We'll need you when we are in trouble.
I'll make this place your grave.
Damn it!
Kill them all!
Don't stand in front of us.
Time is tight, don't hold us back.
Sultan Nur ad-Din will not leave your action unpunished.
He can't get out of there!
I'll take Damascus from the infidels.
The Sultan cannot be saved unless I go by myself.
-And you will retreat your army. -I'm just drawing my sword!
Since it's up to the swords, let's see who crushes whom then!
Come on, heroes!
Those who oppress us will suffer painful torture in red hell!
Although we fought at Damascus, the army has not arrived yet, sir.
There must be something.
We can't hold on anymore.
Our guards will protect us, sir.
We'll retreat.
Take precautions!
They're running away! Go after them!
Damn it!
Sir, these infidels never end.
They come from everywhere, like swarm of grasshoppers!
My Queen!
This is revenge for every whip you hit me with!
My Queen!
Protect the queen!
We'll get out of the door, come on!
They are there, run! Catch them!
I'll punish you for your rebellion with my sword.
Sultan Nur ad-Din survived. He's coming here.
And now the Sultan will punish you with his own sword.
The warriors of the border have sent word.
Saladin survived with captives, sir.
Thank Allah.
You helped us in these times, thank you.
You are the guide on this path, sir.
It is our duty to be a light in the dark and open the way when it is blocked.
Go, sister!
-Leave me, Karategin! -You too!
-Stop, brother! -What are you doing, Karategin?
I'll take them to our tribe.
After the wedding, my sister didn't catch a breath!
She has fallen captive. We'll be back to our tribe.
She is my wife before she is your sister.
Her place is by my side until death.
At this rate, she'll die quickly anyway.
Damascus is already under occupation. We have nowhere to go.
Let Ismet Hatun go with her brother.
You will go to Saladin's tribe.
We'll settle there until we take Damascus back.
Let the soldiers take you to the tribe with Hazrat Omer Mella.
And I'll go to headquarters.
We were unable to take Damascus because the army did not come.
I'll hold them accountable for this.
Are you fine and healthy?
We are fine, brother. You saved us in time.
Sir, soldiers of the border sent news.
Sultan Nur ad-Din and the prisoners is free.
Thank Allah.
You talked about the whip's revenge after you stabbed Victoria.
Did she torture you?
Don't feel sorry for my pain, Damascus is under occupation.
They suffer more than us.
If there is fire in my heart, it is only for that.
Our hearts all burn with the same pain.
But I swear that I'll take our home back from them.
Then our pain will fade away for all of us.
Urfali, take Sureyya and Rabia to the tribe.
Yes, sir.
Let's go to headquarters, Adsiz.
We were unable to take Damascus because the army did not come.
-Let's find out what lies behind. -Yes, sir.
Keep your hands off me!
I'm worried about you, why do you act so?
Get out!
You're not worried about me.
You are worried about not controlling Jerusalem if I die!
You won't sit anyway.
-What does it mean? -It means...
While we got the captives, we got Sultan Nur ad-Din and Saladin.
But your negligence ruined everything!
You were also stabbed by a girl you had whipped.
-I'm not the only one guilty. -You are!
They came and took our prisoners in the middle of Damascus!
We no longer have any trump cards.
They'll come and attack with all their might.
That's difficult.
-My game is not over yet. -I hope that's the case.
If we lose Damascus, let alone controlling Jerusalem, you'll die in Jerusalem square!
Sultan Nur ad-Din now will move to take Damascus.
-How will we stop him? -We will stop him with Mevdud.
It seems that he stopped Sultan Nur ad-Din's army.
But now he has to do more.
He is a Zanki in the end.
Will we take Damascus from one and give it to another?
Sultan Nur ad-Din is a wolf. As for Mevdud, he is a jackal.
Wolves want the whole prey.
The jackal is satisfied with a piece of bone.
Now the wolf has taken over the leadership of the pack.
We need more that jackal to create chaos within that herd.
Send all soldiers and find Mevdud.
-Hurry! -Yes, sir.
They played their game and walked away.
And now my game begins.
[HEADQUARTERS]
Right when we were attacking Damascus, Malik Mevdud cut us off with his soldiers.
What is this audacity?
He believes that Damascus will be his.
Therefore, he didn't let us attack.
How many soldiers does he have? You should have crushed him!
There wasn't only his soldiers with him.
There were also Crusaders.
When he learned that you had survived, he retreated.
It's unbelievable. This is outright betrayal!
Sir, news has come from our observers.
Malik Mevdud went to Damascus.
Looks like Mevdud will be a trouble and an obstacle for us.
But I'll solve this problem from its roots.
Saladin, wait on alert with the army.
[GAZA TRIBE]
What is the situation in Damascus, sir?
There is not only infidel attacks in Damascus.
There are some rebels blinded by the love of throne!
Malik Mevdud!
He united with the Crusaders and entered Damascus.
He’ll raise the banner of rebellion against Sultan Nur ad-Din for the throne.
Look at the man you turned to!
If I had resorted to him, I wouldn't have been here now, rather by his side.
I allied with him for the interests of our tribe!
-That's it. -At least stand on the right side now.
Look, I don't care about it, father.
The throne war of Zanki's concerns them.
My side is clear, it is our interests!
That's it.
[DAMASCUS]
Hey!
You vile Jew!
Did you think you could breathe under my shadow?
Stop this man!
-What are you doing? -This Jew betrayed me.
Step aside, I'll settle my score with him.
You can't touch him, he is important for both of us.
He has no importance to me.
It is a traitor that will be beheaded.
Without my strength and support,
You'll never be able to have Damascus.
You will only see the throne in your dreams.
What game are you playing?
Are you going to set a trap for me?
There is no trap.
We must unite our forces against Nur ad-Din.
Now your friend and enemy have changed.
If you want the throne, it is better to accept this.
Sir.
Messengers of Sultan Nur ad-Din have come. They'd like to meet Malik Mevdud.
Messengers can not be harmed.
Let's see what they have to say.
Tell me, what news did you bring?
Your rebellion has become clear before our Sultan.
Our Sultan invites you to the field under customs to solve this issue.
Is he planning to invite him under customs and kill him?
Don't fall into this trap.
If he had something to say, he could have told it with you.
What does it mean with it?
Our Sultan enforces customs.
The brave is the one who goes out into the field.
Can you measure my courage, you impudent person?
Since he called me for the customs, I will not escape from them.
Don't fall into this trap, you may be killed.
If it comes to sword, I won't back down.
If we'll fight, let it be!
I wouldn't hesitate to kill anyone for my rights.
-Bai Bora! -Yes, sir.
Gather the soldiers, we'll go fighting in the battlefield with Sultan Nur ad-Din.
[GAZA TRIBE]
You haven't stopped since we came, Melike Hatun.
Get some rest.
How can I, Fatma Hatun? I'm worried for Sultan Nur ad-Din.
He was betrayed by Mevdud.
Problems keep coming one after the other.
I was a friend and companion of the Sultan Nur ad-Din for many years.
He has been through many storms.
But he remained steadfast like a strong tree without swinging.
There are two things that keeps him strong.
The first is his wisdom, and the second is the stability of his loved ones.
Let's be steadfast that our Sultan will find strength to get over these days.
Mevdud, I invited you under customs to warn you.
And I came without an army for you to be sure I won't betray you.
I too answered your call for my commitment to customs.
Even you had a great army, I won't betray customs.
Say what you want to say.
I thought you were brave even facing death, brother.
You have become disloyal to unite with infidels who want to seize our land!
Mevdud is the same.
You changed.
Just because it is your relatives, you protected the traitors and left me!
You tried in every way to prevent me from taking the capital.
-You made me do it. -Your anger has blinded you.
You see the enemy as a friend and you see the friend as an enemy!
I am not your enemy, but the infidels with whom you agreed it is.
The end of your path is the abyss, brother.
Leave this and ask for forgiveness. And I'll forgive you.
-Do not obstruct our war with infidels! -I did not sin to ask for forgiveness.
I have saved our country's reputation, and I will be the Sultan!
The only thing that will stop us from now on...
It is you pledging alliance to me and accepting my Sultanate.
You have exposed your own betrayal.
Your concern is not the state, but rather being a ruler.
Even these words are rebellion!
The price is to cut off your head!
Ruling is the right of every member of the ruling family.
This is not a rebellion, but rather raising the banner of truth.
Are you okay with uniting with the enemy and hurting your brother, Mevdud?
I wish you were always the same old brother.
Then I'd have become your slave and not just a brother.
But you have changed.
As for me, it is over. I won't go back.
With your rebellion, you ignited the flame of war between the brothers.
And the sword will rule between us!
Also, the war for the throne has begun!
I'll take Damascus first and then I'll cut off your head!
Did you see Mevdud's behavior?
He were united with us but he settled Damascus. He didn't even tell us.
So?
What can we do? Should we go and support Mevdud,
who made our loved ones captives?
I don't care about Zanki's throne war.
I got hurt with Nusr ad-Din before.
We must chart our own path, free of Mevdud.
Oh!
Why would I chart a path with you? What are your abilities?
Don't you see that half the brave people of the tribe are under my command?
When Saladin returns victorious, his reputation is improved.
And your star dimmed!
Even to this day, Saladin always walked with Sultan's support.
I created my own power from scratch.
Even if a storm blows, it's would only get the dust off from a rock like me.
Oh! Okay, but, why are you saying this to me?
I have no partnership with anyone.
I already have a tribe, and I'm the tribe master.
If I'll be with someone, we must be equal. I don't care for half things.
Despite our enmity, I got over it and decided to cooperate with you.
Now will you turn your back on me like Mevdud?
I always play the right role.
That's why I don't stumble on the path I walk.
Turan-Shah, oh!
You, you lost this game.
You are left alone.
I have no business with losers.
Rather, I always deal with those who stay in the game.
The daggers of traitors in my back are worse than the enemy's swords!
Ones most difficult tests comes from their relatives, sir.
But healing is in them, as well.
We have overcome many difficulties. We will get through this, too.
The army is ready to attack, sir.
They must have started preparing for defense.
I think, we shouldn't attack suddenly. We must prepare.
Everyone go to the tribe.
We'll begin siege preparations as soon as possible.
We have to get Damascus and end infidels and traitors soon!
So, Nur ad-Din won't pledge allegiance.
He must be getting ready to attack Damascus.
He won't attack.
He'll start siege preparations.
Move all soldiers and get ready for defense in the whole city.
Yes, sir.
The time has come to declare my Sultanate.
The people of Damascus must know that I am the Sultan...
And they'll stand beside me against my brother.
Before Nur ad-Din gives up on here, you won't fully have here.
You must stop from taking him here so that everyone will obey you.
My Sultanate depends on keeping Damascus, Bai Bora.
We have to stop my brother.
We have to ruin his plans.
They'll need a catapult and a tower, sir.
They are all in Damascus. How will they do it?
Ashkelon!
There are siege equipment in Ashkelon!
They might take it from there.
Take soldiers with you and go to Ashkelon.
And prevent them from taking it, come on!
You two! Come with me.
We'll cut off all roads leading to Damascus, sir.
Thus, they'll be weaker.
We need catapults and towers for siege.
Without it, it will be hard for us to destroy the resistance.
This equipment was in Damascus and now it is in the hands of the enemy!
Finding others will take days! We don't have all that time!
There are siege equipments in Ashkelon warehouse, sir.
I put them their after the conquest. We can take them there.
Malik Mevdud's soldiers will be there, they won't let you.
Will I ask permission from a traitor? I'll go and take my own equipments.
I'll crush everyone who opposes me.
Go to Ashkelon immediately then, Saladin. Take siege equipment to the camp.
Every minute is against us. We must start and take Damascus!
You scared me!
Stay away!
Someone will see us!
Don't put me in danger!
Your horse is very beautiful. It's eyes are nice, walks neat.
This is my Tulpar.
What do you say?
Should we marry them?
They'll have peace and neigh together!
Your Tulpar seems stubborn.
What will my horse do with it?
It deserves better!
Tell it not to hang around too much.
My horse won't suit him!
Did you hear it, Tulpar?
How does she pamper?!
Hush!
Are you still acting crazy?
Come on, sister! With horses?!
I saw you talking stupidly to Rabia.
-Who?! Me? -Yes!
Oh! I came and she was here!
She just got out of captivity. Shouldn't I congratulate her, sister?!
You think bad!
Stop it! Don't bother her and expose us!
She is Saladin's sister. He'll cut you to pieces and I won't feel bad!
Oh! Look at him!
What did I do to Saladin's sister?
Is great Karategin up to Saladin's sister?!
I deserve much better!
If I just want, I'll get many girls!
[ASHKELON]
Come on, hurry up!
We need to take the siege equipment to Damascus.
Hurry!
Emir Saladin has come.
He must have come to get siege equipments.
Saladin won't listen, take your swords and send them back, come on!
We'll get the equipment out the back door, hurry!
We'll take the siege equipment, stay away!
Attack, soldiers!
Without bloodshed, heroes!
Hurry! Let's go!
Hurry!
-Saladin! -Leave the equipment!
-How did you get here? -By knocking down your men one by one.
Even you don't let these equipments, you'll end up same.
Ashkelon belongs to Malik Mevdud.
Everything here is his!
Everything on state land belongs to the state!
The state is ours from now on, Saladin!
Stop!
Go now and tell your owner...
The state's grip has destroyed you! My sword will control Damascus tomorrow.
Then you'll see who this country belongs to.
-Let's go! -Walk!
Collect all siege equipment.
We have to camp and start preparations.
We have defeated the rebels, and now we'll cut off their heads! Come on!
[GAZA TRIBE]
Years ago...
We broke up because of Damascus.
Years later...
We had our wedding in Damascus. But this time...
We didn't have peace because of Damascus, Ismet.
Don't be sad, you always say, "Victory is measured by the challenge."
When we overcome these difficulties, we'll have peace, Insha’Allah.
Hopefully.
My lord.
My brother Kilij Arslan sent Seljuk units to help.
You kicked them away, I wish you hadn't.
They didn't come to help, they came to insult us.
And I gave them the response they deserved!
Are you worried about your family instead of being with your Sultan?
Not only are they my family, you know the power of the Seljuks.
The price of confronting Seljuks will be difficult for everyone.
Once upon a time, there was sparrows hiding under the shadow of Seljuk's eagle.
Now they think they are hawks and tried attacking the eagle!
But they don't know that once eagle flies to its prey...
There is no more escape.
Nur ad-Din Zanki forgot that he is younger and acted big against us.
Now, it is time to hit Seljuk's eagle's claw to him.
This eagle!
Dolat!
My sister!
Our family gem.
And the crown of our head.
I have longed so much to see your beautiful face.
Oh Dolat, my brave brother!
I missed you a lot!
Thanks Allah.
Welcome, Dolat.
Come on, let's go to the tent.
Let's eat, talk and rest.
Oh, Nur ad-Din Zanki, oh!
You've grown so old.
You have grown to the point that you have forgotten who is older.
Behave, Dolat.
This isn't the place to act.
Where was your custom when you hit our soldiers?
Disrespect in the crowd has no place in seclusion.
Let everyone see...
I will now remind you who your elder is.
We've loaded it all, sir.
We'll go to camp now, Sultan awaits.
There is something important missing.
-What is it? -Iron.
You were our Atabey.
Without our order, you wouldn't move. You got Sultanate.
You were fighting Crusaders and we didn't say anything.
But what do you think of you because we don't control you?
Everything I gained was with my sword.
You're forgetting that, Dolat.
You forgot what you survived when I was your Atabey.
We have a kinship and respect.
Don't make me draw my sword and end them.
Oh!
You say kinship, but to have son, you marry Ismet Hatun.
Behave! This marriage was for the purpose of the union!
Should I have asked you?
Don't make it hard, Dolat!
Wait, light of my eyes. Don't be upset with me.
My problem is with Nur ad-Din Zanki.
We have no goal other than unity and peace.
Since your abilities are great, be useful to unity and peace.
But if your goal is conflict, you are no longer needed.
You lost your capital. Your brother united with Crusaders and disobeyed you.
He declared himself an Sultan. They are stronger than you.
For my sister's sake, we'll support you.
But on one condition.
You'll accept my brother Kilij Arslan as Sultan.
You'll be under our rule, just like the other days.
And we'll only forgive your inappropriate behavior like this.
My brother told me to obey, and I drew my sword to him.
Know that my head straight like my sword, won't bow anyone else other than Allah.
Then we'll support your brother Malik Mevdud.
We'll pledge allegiance to him and acknowledge him as Sultan.
If you do this, you'll be my enemy.
You should have known that! Since that you don't go back...
Then we'll end our friendship and start our enmity.
I have enough enemies in front of me.
-Don't add an another obstacle. -Enough! It's over.
Either you'll pledge allegiance to us, or the swords will speak!
These lands are already shaded by the eagle's shadow.
If you do not accept what we have said, the eagle's claws will tear you apart.
We check it all, but no iron, sir.
Iron is necessary for the catapult.
We can get it from nearby places.
It is urgent, we need to start preparing now.
Boru's were making iron and selling them all around.
We'll take the iron we need from them. Urfali, Adsiz, come with me.
And you, take it to the camp. But be careful.
It's very important for the siege, come on!
Didn't I tell you not to leave the equipments? How did Saladin take them?
-We tried as much as we could. -You idiots!
They'll attack Damascus if they create siege equipments with it.
If they attack us, it will be hard for us.
But if we attack and destroy the equipments...
-They won't do anything. -We shouldn't go out to attack.
They might trap us.
Stay in Damascus, I got this.
We'll send soldiers if necessary and you stay here.
I'll go with the soldiers in disguised.
Saladin has eliminated the Ark of the Covenant before our eyes.
And I'll destroy his equipments and take my revenge.
I saw from the eagle's sound that my sister is here.
Did you remember our eagle?
We caught it together when it was young.
We raised it together.
He has two wings.
It only protect us both.
And it strikes anyone else.
That's why I came, Dolat.
Nur ad-Din confronts many problems.
Don't add another.
It isn't only about me, sister.
Nur ad-Din has disrespected Seljuk's.
He beat our soldiers we sent for help and kick them away.
You know well that we won't let any disrespect go by unpunished.
You on the one hand, and Nur ad-Din on the other. I'll be in between.
That's what you say, but...
That man got married with Ismet Hatun.
He'll have a son.
Then you won't be the first lady.
His bad manners were towards all of us.
If you want this thing to calm down...
Go and convince that Nur ad-Din.
Let him pledge allegiance to us and ask for our forgiveness.
Otherwise, we'll realized Mevdud as the Sultan.
We are ready to go to Boru's tribe, sir.
Now it's time to hold the Boru's accountable.
I'll remind everyone who has forgotten The Seljuk state with its claw!
Malik Dolat's coming ruined everything.
While we had a problem, we have a thousand problems!
Boru's are their people.
He'll go there and spread discord.
Where did this come from?!
Is there no room for agreement, sir?
He won't accept anything but pledge of allegiance.
And I'll never do that.
If he supports Malik Mevdud,
It might be impossible for us take Damascus and the throne.
The Seljuks is like an iron castle.
It is hard to overcome them.
There is one solution to this.
It is through taking our throne and Damascus back.
Then we'll have eliminated our enemies and we'll ruin Dolat's threat.
We'll start moving as soon as news comes from Saladin.
We are in a do or die phase now.
We'll stay here and perish, or move on and destroy our enemies!
[BORU'S TRIBE]
We'll move to raid Damascus, Karategin.
Go then!
What do you want from me?
Can't you do anything without me?!
What do I do? Shall I come, too?
I was just a prisoner, give me some peace!
Take your seat.
We need iron for the siege.
Iron is manufactured in your tribe.
We came to buy iron.
Oh!
You didn't give me spoils in the past, Saladin.
Why should I give you iron?
This is not the time for greed!
I tell you that we came to buy iron.
Okay.
Give me the gold...
And take the iron!
Are you trying to avenge the spoils?
We do not evade paying for gold.
But it's urgent.
Don't make things difficult, Karategin.
You shouldn't go to war with a sword for free.
It brings bad luck.
I'm just saying that for you.
They captured your sisters.
And you're still here chasing money.
Give us iron to start the siege.
May my soul be sacrificed for my sisters.
Will iron work? May it benefit you then.
But I don't trust you about the gold, Saladin.
You did not give me the spoils.
You won't pay your debt.
Karategin, give it to me, or I'll take it.
Then you will never see gold.
I will not give you.
Give me something to start my day!
This is the blessing of this matter.
Okay.
Wizard! Take care of our customers.
Give them as much iron as they want.
These are Saladin's men, sir.
They transport siege equipment.
Get ready.
We will eliminate them all.
[DAMASCUS]
Enjoy it.
Hey!
When I said it was over, another problem comes!
What happened again?
The Seljuk's Malik Dolat has come.
He met with my brother in the tribe.
My brother kicked out Seljuk's soldier.
Dolat is coming to hold him accountable for it.
So they are tense.
This is in our favor.
Why do you worry?
Melike Hatun is Seljuk Prince's Dolat's sister.
If he agrees with my brother...
The Seljuk's will be with my brother against me.
They they'll take Damascus and kill us here.
I told you.
I told you that we won't win before we kill Sultan Nur ad-Din.
What will happen now?
What if they unite and attack us?
While we got the Damascus, this will be a death trap for us!
As long as the relationship with Sultan Nur ad-Din and the Seljuks are tense...
I'll make it worse!
We got the iron, sir.
Thank Allah, we got it all.
Seljuks!
I am the Seljuk's Malik Dolat.
You honored our tribe Malik Dolat.
And who are you?
Emir Saladin.
Even though I'm not your real uncle, we knew you as our nephew for years.
Did Nur ad-Din Zanki grow you up as a Malik for years...
And he deceives you with Emirate?
When I was Emir or Malik, I walked for our cause.
Status and position do not affect me.
Where does these iron go?
We will besiege Damascus. That's why we came to buy iron.
Put down that iron.
Nothing will be sold to Nur ad-Din Zanki anymore.
Surround them so they don't escape!
What is this?!
Hell warriors!
Insidious!
-Come on, kill them all. -Attack.
Insidious!
Kill them.
We bought this iron from Boru's.
What right do you have to get it back?
The Boru's are our Atabey.
We are their masters.
Or will you act like Nur ad-Din Zanki, Karategin?
Our loyalty and respect for the Seljuk state is eternal.
We know our limits and acknowledge our masters.
Put down the iron.
Forgive me, Saladin.
Order of the elders cuts the iron.
You came here to be of help to the enemy!
Rather, we have come to remind the children of their elders.
Go against me if you can.
Our capital is occupied.
I need this equipment for siege.
This isn't time to hurt each other while we got Crusaders against us!
Go tell that to Nur ad-Din Zanki then.
He'll come and ask for forgiveness about his bad manners towards us.
And he'll accept our sovereignty.
Otherwise we won't make you live here.
What is it?
They attacked the people carrying siege equipments, sir.
-Who did it? -Avram was their leader.
We'll go catch up quickly, come on.
You have been caught in the fire of my vengeance.
Not even Saladin will save you from here.
Dolat is advancing towards our trap.
It's time to start the war fire between him and Nur ad-Din.
Move!
We stopped them before they took it, but they injured our brothers.
Open your eyes.
He's alive.
They are breathing.
-Let's go. -Come on, take them all to the tribe!
Hurry.
Oil!
Saladin will follow these equipments.
Even though he get it, we'll tear him apart with these.
Real hell will break out now.
I'll take my revenge on him likewise.
Trap!
All siege equipment has been destroyed.
They were defeated before they came to Damascus.
We can leave now.
The eagle is in the trap.
Get ready.
-Trap! -Draw your swords and move, come on!
-Zanki soldiers! -Hurry!
They set a trap!
Kill them!
Attack!
Kill them all!
Now it's Bloody Bernard's turn.
Are you okay, sir?
Sir!
-Are you okay, sir? -I'm fine.
This was the only equipment we have for the siege.
And they turned to ashes.
-What shall we do? -We are helpless.
Even though they hold us back, we won't stop.
The fire of war has truly raged now.
I'll burn Avram and those with him and turn them to ashes!
Did you think Sultan Nur ad-Din will let you get away?
We'll send your head to Konya.
Rather, I'll make his head move around the world!
You scum!
We'll retreat!
Aren't we going to kill Dolat, sir?
He must live.
We'll sit down and watch their war with pleasure.
[GAZA TRIBE]
I spoke to Dolat, his honor has been tarnished. That's why he is angry.
But maybe act good and try to agree?
For what, Melike?
You saw it.
He asks me to pledge allegiance to him and threats me with supporting Mevdud!
I'll be a mediator to make it better.
Just let there be no enmity.
If you fight Seljuk's...
You'll be helpless.
I'm not seeking enmity, Melike.
But I won't accept any conditions for reconciliation.
Okay, I was their Atabey for once.
But I founded the state by the power of my sword.
I don't owe anyone anything.
I wish you hadn't beaten and kick out the soldiers.
Should I have overlooked their bad manners?
And Dolat will say this is bad manners.
What if he agrees with Mevdud?
-What will happen then? -Let him do it.
I'll take back Damascus and my throne.
Then the evil enemies, traitors, and your brother's threats will be destroyed!
Dolat!
-What happened to you? -Move, sister.
I'll hold him accountable.
What happened? Who did what?
Zanki!
And you ask it?!
You set up an ambush and attack us!
It wasn't enough that you hit us, you'll shed our bloods!
I'll shed your blood for the blood you shed!
I didn't trap anyone!
Obviously, there must be something in it!
This is the trick of enemies whom want us to fight!
We verified those who attacked us, there is no game.
They are all Zanki soldiers.
And the evidence...
Here.
I'm telling you this is a trap! Trap!
It's also a trap you've fallen into yourself.
When you tried to antagonize me, the real enemies had the opportunity.
To make us fight, they set up this trap!
If Nur ad-Din Zanki set up a trap for you, I would have known!
-Don't act rashly. -Everything is clear, sister.
The one who did it is Nur ad-Din Zanki.
He'll pay dearly for this.
From now on, it doesn't matter even if you pledge allegiance.
We'll recognize Mevdud as the Sultan.
-We will support him. -You are making a mistake, Dolat.
You are led by the enemy's deception.
I have become your enemy more than all your enemies!
I sent word. Soon my son Iltutmish will come here with Seljuk soldiers.
Then I'll erase you from the face of the earth, Nur ad-Din Zanki!
[DAMASCUS]
I destroyed the equipments in front of Saladin!
It'll take a lot of time for them to get ready.
You did it, for this time, but...
But I didn't like what you did.
You attacked Seljuks Malik Dolat.
If they find out it is you,
Seljuk's will destroy us!
I attacked disguised as a Zanki soldier.
Those who died there were Muslim mercenary fighters.
All evidence points to Nur ad-Din.
The war between them has already begun to start.
I hope it happens as you said.
Let's just not get involved.
The only thing that will come to us is Malik Dolat.
When he declares war to Nur ad-Din, he'll come to you.
After the Seljuks join your side, there will be no obstacle for you.
To our near victory!
We've been hit from unexpected places, sir.
On one side Avram destroying our supplies, on the other Malik Dolat's attacking.
Dolat fell into the enemy's trap and acted against us.
Now we don't have just Crusaders and Mevdud against us.
There is Seljuks.
It is hard for us to take Damascus and throne while the enemy is strong.
Seljuk's army...
It will come very soon.
We are in the most difficult moments between the brink of life and death.
There is only one thing, sir.
We'll declare war on them all.
We'll go to the battlefield tomorrow.
[DAMASCUS]
We are honored by your visit, Malik Dolat.
I heart the my brother attacked you.
He dared to attack the great Seljuk Malik.
He's gone too far.
That's why I came.
From now on, as a Seljuk's...
We do not recognize Nur ad-din Zanki as a sultan.
We will recognize Malik Mevdud as Sultan.
Well thought.
This is what suits you.
I declared war on Nur ad-Din Zanki.
Soon the Seljuk soldiers will come here with my son, Iltutmish.
We’ll support you with all our strength.
But...
We have one condition.
What is it?
Nur ad-Din Zanki has become so because he does not care his elders.
If you know who your elders are and respect our greatness...
We will always support you against Nur ad-Din Zanki.
One grows according to one's elders.
Obeying Seljuk's greatness will grow us, too.
Okay, well done.
As long as we are with you, Nur ad-Din can't attack you.
The tiger and eagle are united.
It's time to tear apart the prey.
If you declare a war throne to Mevdud, he'll get out of Damascus with his army.
Consequently, the military power in Damascus will be weakened.
I and my warriors will seize the opportunity and take Damascus.
The war throne with Malik Mevdud won't be easy.
Malik Dolat also said that he would help him.
Malik Mevdud's army came from Mosul.
Malik Dolat's army hasn't arrived yet, sir.
You'll defeat Mevdud's army for sure.
In the end, I'll have gone to the battlefield.
But it's very difficult for you.
Will you be able to take Damascus with warriors of the borders only?
This is going to death, Saladin!
What is the importance of my life besides the survival of Islam, sir?
What's the point of living while traitors got Damascus?
There is hope of victory if we attack them.
Your life is very precious to me.
May Allah bless you, sir.
But don't worry.
Insha’Allah, we'll succeed in this.
Then we'll change our target to Gaza and Jerusalem.
Let the army prepare immediately, Shirkoh.
Tomorrow...
We'll join the war for the throne.
As long as luck brings us between the brink of life and death...
Either the throne...
Or loss.
That trap you set up worked.
Dolat has joined our side and declared war on Nur ad-Din Zanki.
My brother cannot declare war on us.
My army has come from Mosul.
Damascus is ours now.
It's time to declare my Sultanate, there is no obstacle left for us.
Sultan Nur ad-Din sent a messenger, sir. He wants to see you.
My brother must have surrendered before our power.
Call him to come.
Sultan Nur ad-Din prepared his army for the war for the throne.
He is waiting for you on the battlefield.
My army has come from Mosul. The Seljuks are also on our side.
How dare my brother go to war?!
He might die.
He should swear allegiance to me and end it.
Our Sultan has decided this would only finish with swords.
He has no fear even if he had dozens of armies against him.
He wants those who have the courage to come to the battlefield.
Why is he calling Malik Mevdud to battlefield? What is his goal?
Our Sultan could have come to the Damascus.
But he doesn't want to ruin the city, and hurt people because of it.
But, of course, he'll come after the war.
To raise the banners of victory as the only Sultan.
Tell your Sultan that I'll be with my army tomorrow on the battlefield.
The swords will determine who will rule.
Why do you accept it right away?
Didn't you hear it?
He said he could come to Damascus.
We must end this matter before they approach Damascus.
It has become a requirement ending this to make everyone accept my rule.
-Bai Bora. -Yes, sir?
Gather the army.
As long as my brother decided to go out to the battlefield..
We'll seal our judgment with the blood of a brother.
Allah is the greatest.
-Peace and mercy of Allah. -Peace and mercy of Allah.
The enemies who occupy our country today is many.
We are less.
Abraha's elephant army was also strong.
But Allah sent swallows and they were defeated badly.
Today we are swallows!
Insha’Allah, we'll defeat the oppressive army!
We'll destroy them!
Either victory or martyrdom!
-Allah is the greatest. -Allah is the greatest.
[GAZA TRIBE]
Saladin went out with the warriors of the borders to take Damascus, my lord.
We too must defeat Mevdud on the battlefield.
Otherwise, Saladin's preparations will be in vain.
My lord, today is a day of honor.
Today women shouldn't sit and should hold swords.
We want to come for the war to take Damascus.
Saladin and his soldiers are less, we'll help them, too.
-Isfahani, go with the women. -Yes, sir.
Sir, I've been a governor in Damascus for many years, you know.
I want to go next to my son.
I'll help in the war that we make to save Damascus.
We need you here, Eyyub.
Stay in the tribe, watch our backs.
Yes, sir.
This is a matter life for us as much as it is for you.
Let me be with you.
We might not come back, Melike.
Stay remain here as guardian of my property and the lady of the house.
Let's go.
Urfali, watch near Damascus.
Tell me as soon as Malik Mevdud leaves.
Yes, sir!
Adsiz, prepare the warriors of the borders.
-Collect firewood and everything. -What will we do with it, sir?
We'll ignite such a war flame that enemy will suffocate.
Let's go.
[DAMASCUS]
Today I'll win the war for the throne at any cost and will declare my Sultanate.
I sent news to Malik Dolat.
He'll support me.
And I'll be armed with my soldiers close to the war zone.
You stay in Damascus, just in case.
If Nur ad-Din wins the war, he'll come here with his army.
We must finish him off on the battlefield.
While we are not here, Avram will protect Damascus.
There are enough soldiers.
Do not worry.
Of course, they can't attack Damascus while there is a war over the throne.
Just kill Sultan Nur ad-Din.
Today, Nur ad-Din's star will be extinguished.
And your sun will shine, Mevdud.
-Bai bora! -Yes, sir!
Prepare the soldiers.
Malik Mevdud and his soldiers have left Damascus, sir.
Okay, now it's time to move.
Sir!
We put the woods around Damascus as you ordered. We await your order.
The wind is blowing to Damascus.
After lighting those bushes, Damascus will be covered with smoke.
No one will see anything.
We'll seize the opportunity and move.
We bid farewell to Sultan Nur ad-Din to the war for the throne.
Staying back on such a hard day didn't suit us.
We came to fight for Damascus.
This battle is not like the previous ones. It will be difficult.
You said Damascus will heal all our wounds.
I waited for these days when I got whipped there.
This battle is a healing for all of us.
Damascus is our ancestors lands.
We need to fight for it.
I too will be here by order of the Sultan.
Brave ones!
Start the fire of war, come on.
If things get worse, we'll attack and eliminate Nur ad-Din.
Okay.
What is this smoke?
Sir, sir.!
A large fire broke out in the forest opposite.
Walk.
Let the drums and trumpets of battle sound.
They think they will approach the walls through this smoke and enter Damascus.
Sultan Nur ad-Din went to battle for the throne.
How many people are they to attack Damascus?
They think they are smart.
But they don't realize that they are about to die.
Let the soldiers come here.
Adsiz, they took the bait and took place in the walls.
We'll enter through the other walls and attack suddenly.
Take some soldiers with you.
-Bozok. -Let us also come with you.
Most of the soldiers will stay here.
When we enter, we'll open the doors. That's where they'll come in.
Join them.
I will lead the people here.
Our soldiers are ready, sir.
Let's go.
Don't worry about me.
We'll meet at Damascus.
Why would I?
You muster your mind and don't die there.
Let's go.
Everyone be ready!
Nur ad-Din Zanki attacked us treacherously.
Instead of asking for our forgiveness, he shed our blood.
This bloodshed can only be cleansed with blood.
And you will fight in our ranks.
Certainly, the great Seljuk's words are an order.
But...
If Mevdud becomes Sultan, how will this benefit me?
When Mevdud becomes Sultan...
I will glorify you.
You won't just have a tribe.
You'll rule even in Damascus.
When the spoil is served, the sword will come out.
-Would you excuse me, sir? -Come in.
Malik Mevdud sent word, sir.
Nur ad-Din Zanki is coming towards him to battle for the throne.
They will fight on the battlefield.
Who does Nur ad-Din Zanki thinks he is?
I told him that I support Mevdud.
How dare he attack him for the throne?
This is a challenge to the great Seljuks, Malik Eagle.
Malik Dolat.
He attacked you first...
And now he doesn't listen you.
But those hands raised at Seljuk's will be cut off.
You take the soldiers with you now.
You'll be next to Mevdud on the battlefield for the throne.
Don't worry, Nur ad-Din Zanki won't leave that field alive.
Your greed for the throne has blinded you to the point...
That you have united with the enemy and want to kill your brother.
I have been patient so as not to shed my brother's blood again.
But you are not a brother.
If the brotherhood ends, you are the reason.
You hurt me because of traitors.
You did this to us.
There is no need for so many men to die because of your greed, Mevdud.
Let us fight for Sultanate alone.
If you are brave enough.
I can disobey you.
Of course I'm brave to fight you.
Let the swords decide who has the right and who shall fate bring down.
They haven't attacked yet!
What are they trying to do?
Some people are coming!
We must open the door soon.
I gave whatever you wanted, Mevdud.
I thought you were my brother and I wanted you to be strong.
But I raised a snake with these hands.
You didn't give me anything.
Everything I took was right on my wrist.
But in order the right to take place...
I have to take the state.
And I'm going to that here.
Get ready, we may start attacking at any moment.
Come on, hurry up!
They are here!
There is no escape for you, Saladin.
What is happening? Run away!
-Run, run! -Run, come on!
Bozok!
Sir, what is this explosion?
While we wait here, they entered the city from the other wall.
Let half the soldiers on the wall descend into the city.
We won't let them get out of here alive!
Come on, hurry up, spread out!
Hurry!
-Run, this way. -Hurry up!
Sir, they understood we are in because of the explosion.
This is what we really wanted.
Now the walls surrounding the door have been weakened.
Ismet Hatun must have got the signal with it.
We have to open the door now, come on.
The explosion was Emir Saladin's signal.
He's already in.
They'll open the door now.
We'll start attacking, heroes, come on!
Come on, just a while until Nur ad-Din dies.
Saladin has not come yet.
They rain arrows from the walls!
Raise your shields!
We'll hold out until Saladin opens the door!
Archers on the walls rain their arrows towards the door.
They are clearly at the door.
If we don't open the door, they'll die. Come on, hurry.
Sir, they are at the city doors.
What are your orders?
Damn it!
Those inside will definitely go to open the door.
Set traps on the roads leading to the door, hurry up.
Tell Bernard, too.
They are getting closer!
Don't let them get close, archers!
Keep going!
Archers!
They started pouring hot oil!
We are trapped here.
Come on, Saladin, come on.
Come on!
They are here!
It's time for you to die, Saladin.
You and those who wait at the door will die!
Kill them!
My sword will end the score between us.
And my sun will rise eventually.
That sun...
I'll put it off with my hands!
Damn it.
Nur ad-Din began to outperform him.
-We'll start attacking. -Sir!
Avram sent news.
-Saladin entered Damascus. -What are you saying?
They dragged us here and entered Damascus from our backs.
We must catch up with Saladin before he takes Damascus.
What about Mevdud? What if Nur ad-Din kills him?
If we don't have Damascus, Mevdud is of no use.
We must act immediately and stop Saladin. Hurry!
They must be trapped at the door. Come on, Hurry!
Let's go!
Obviously they won't be able to open the door.
If this continues, we'll die, too!
-What is this? -They came.
They're here, attack!
Don't leave them!
Sir, it is stuck. It isn't opening!
-Are you fine? -Yes.
We are fine.
We'll take the palace, move into the city.
Spread out in the streets and kill all Crusaders! Come on!
I told you we'd meet in Damascus.
Fine, your mouth is works just like your wrist.
You have no friend today...
And no one will help you.
Because with betrayal, you pushed all your friends...
And you made the enemy your friends.
And now...
It's time to end the score between us, brother.
Sir, sir!
Unfortunately, they entered through the door.
Damn it!
They'll come to take the palace.
Don't let them cross.
Your end has come, Avram.
Kill them!
We don't have any soldiers left on the walls, sir.
Saladin has entered.
We must get in before he takes Damascus, come on!
Karategin!
Oh!
They say the wolf survives the winter...
But it does not forget the cold it felt.
I'll now show you what it means to take my sisters captivate.
Bloody idiot!
-Simon. -Adsiz.
These lands belong to us!
We'll water our promised lands...
With the blood of Muslims.
A Jewish kingdom will flourish here.
Your dirty blood...
It will strengthen our holy kingdom.
Come on, come on.
Come here.
All the Muslim blood you shed...
It sharpened us with vengeance.
May this sword bring hope to the people of Gaza and all Muslims...
And fear to oppressors all around the world!
Game over, Avram.
Not the Crusaders you support, or the Jews behind you can save you.
But my sword has not fallen yet, Saladin.
Only the sword of Islam will shine in these lands.
It'll be a shadow to innocents,
And a nightmare for the oppressors.
Your head will gets it share from this sword.
This lands where you shed blood saying it's the promised land,
It will be your graveyard.
♪ Selahaddin Eyyubi (feat. Mustafa Ersen) ♪
I fought for my right.
I don't regret it at all.
But you will regret it.
The injustice you did to me...
It will destroy you and your throne.
Your greed...
It has blinded you to the point where you can't even see the right.
What I do is justice!
And justice for you...
It is death!
Weren't you with Dolat?
You should attack them, not us.
I am a wolf, a wolf.
The wolf knows very well where to go in each season.
But it not a cheater!
When it comes to its family...
It takes his revenge.
I'll kill you, you bloody idiot.
Sir!
Thank Allah.
Truth has emerged and falsehood has vanished.
Damn it!
Finally!
My sister!
Don't move.
You won't be able to go anywhere.
You bloody cuckold!
We those who water the blood and make it a home...
We won't let you take our lands until the last drop of our bloods.
Let this be an example to that man who calls him "Bloody"...
And to the dishonorable people just like him.
Finally!
Avram!
This victory that shone over our country like the sun...
It is good news for new conquests.
This sword which is...
The nightmare of the oppressor and the shadow of the innocent...
It'll erase the dark of disbelief from the face of the earth.
This sword won't be sheathed...
Until Allah wins...
All over the earth!
Allah is the greatest!
