Shame!
Traitors! Shame!
-Traitors! -Murderers!
Dogs!
You defy our traditions! Shame!
Go back to your tents!
Shame!
If anyone comes any closer, we'll kill them.
Disobey and we'll kill you!
Don't make us spill blood!
Do what we tell you! Get back to your tents!
You've defied tradition! Shame!
Dogs!
Ingratitude!
I have come to save you from tyranny!
I have come to give you back the greatness you have lost!
You resist instead of obeying us?
We'll never obey you.
Our Bey is Aliyar Bey.
You're the tyrant! You're oppressing your own people. Traitor!
That's what you get for defying me!
Anyone else want to speak up?
Huh?
When the Cavdars... regain their glory
you'll be ashamed and will beg for my forgiveness!
Victory is ours, Ural Bey! Victory is ours, Ural Bey!
May your leadership last forever. Victory is ours, my Bey.
May your leadership last forever.
I've returned with glory to the tribe I left ashamed.
Thank you, my warriors.
Long live Ural Bey! Long live Ural Bey!
Bastard!
Long live Ural Bey! Long live Ural Bey!
My warriors!
Brave men of the Cavdar tribe.
At last, justice will prevail in our tribe.
Both my father's tent and our tribe have been reclaimed from the traitors.
Now is the time for vengeance.
Ertuğrul and Aliyar will meet their end.
Only Cavdars may rule this land.
And you... will be the alps who won...
this great victory.
Long live Ural Bey! Long live Ural Bey!
It seems that Ural Bey has taken control of the tribe.
Ural... I hope you don't mess this up.
When Aliyar gets home, there's going to be a great welcoming feast waiting for him.
Long live Ural Bey! Long live Ural Bey!
Bastard!
Long live Ural Bey! Long live Ural Bey!
Bamsi...
Where are you? Where are you, Bamsi?
I told you, Mother.
I told you that as long as that man remained alive, he'd seek vengeance.
He can't touch us as long as my Ertuğrul is alive.
My son will save us very soon.
How, Mother? He doesn't even know we're here.
It's hopeless.
Don't show fear before these dogs!
Our job now is to stall them until Ertuğrul arrives.
Long live Ural Bey! Long live Ural Bey!
It's you who deserves to die, Ural!
Shame on you!
Shame on you, Aslıhan.
You stand with these traitors instead of with me.
You choose your enemy over your brother.
The path of the crooked man is never straight, Ural.
You won't get away with this.
Don't worry.
As soon as this is over I'm sending you to Sadettin.
He'll get what's coming to him too!
He'll find out what it means to let me down!
Sir, Ertuğrul and Aliyar Bey are riding towards the tribe.
What did you just say? Ertuğrul?
It seems he's found out about the coup.
The council meeting must have been cancelled, there's no other explanation.
I, Bey of the Cavdars,
son of Candar Bey, Ural Bey,
swore I'd avenge my father and son.
No one will doubt my honor when they see me fulfill that oath.
Honor?
What honor do you have, Ural?
As long as Ertuğrul is alive,
all you can do is spread poison with your tongue like a loose woman.
Just wait, you'll meet your end.
Ertuğrul and Aliyar have no idea what's coming.
There's nothing anyone can do to save you now.
So many people have been saved from you clutches, Ural.
What have you ever managed to keep hold of? Huh?
Who do you think you are? What could have made you so arrogant? Huh?
Stop!
I beg you, don't.
You'll be known as a coward who murders women.
Let them go.
If you're so strong, take on a man.
He won't dare face Ertuğrul.
What do you expect from a man who sought refuge in his enemy's castle?
Your sword is only good enough for women.
Where's your son? Huh?
Where is he? Have him come save you now.
We'll see if my sword is good enough for him or not.
If Ertuğrul Bey had known...
he'd have taken your head a long time ago, Ural.
You're just a traitor who plots and sets traps.
Traitor?
-Let go! -Let her go, you dog!
Let me go!
Now you'll see what happens to those who set sibling against sibling.
Let me go!
My Bamsi, I didn't get enough time with you, my Bamsi.
-Stop! -Alps!
Stop!
I swear there is no god but God. Muhammad is the messenger of God.
Martyrdom...
is an honor for us.
-God is great. -God is great.
Stop!
I'm ashamed to share the same blood as you.
Stop. I'm begging you, don't do it.
My enemies deserve death! Death!
Here they come, Mother!
Bamsi!
Ertuğrul!
Stand back!
Since when do Turks
take women as shields when they ambush men, Ural?
There is no place for what you call justice,
even among non-believers.
You'll address me as Ural Bey!
I am Bey of this tribe.
Let that be known!
You're nothing in my eyes, Ural!
You're a disgrace, both to my father's tent and to that sword you hold!
You conspired to take my title away from me,
and gave it to my brother, Ertuğrul's puppet.
I claim my birth right. You hear that? My birth right!
Have you sunk so low
that you're asking my alps to kill their own Bey, Ural?
Neither our Sultan nor our tribe will let you get away with this.
Unless the sky falls,
or the ground collapses,
no one can corrupt the Turks' tradition.
You attempted to, Ural. Now it's time to pay.
Stand back, alps.
You won't only ruin us,
but your brothers who also live on this land
and your state, too.
If you follow Ural your destination is obvious.
Surrender... to justice and decency.
Alps!
Kill them!
-Let my daughter go! -Let me go!
Ertuğrul.
Sir, things aren't going well.
Ertuğrul and his alps must have attacked.
Stupid Ural. He'll lose again.
Sir, Ural Bey has more alps on his side.
Courage wins wars, not numbers, Commander.
Courage.
Hafsa, Hafsa, Hafsa, Hafsa. I'll save you, hold on. Hold on.
Stand back. Or I'll kill your woman.
Let her go. Fight like a man.
Your new regime has come crashing down, Ural.
You've poisoned all of us.
With your ambition and rage,
you've ruined the lives of many alps, beys and innocents.
And now you hide behind a woman.
How low can you fall, Ural? How low?
Men, my alps, attack!
Ertuğrul!
What are you doing? I said attack! Attack!
Sir, they've asked for our help.
Ural's life is in danger.
Damn it.
Sir, what do you want us to do?
My son!
Ertuğrul...
I'll end your line, Ertuğrul! I'll be your worst nightmare!
You and men like you would make yourselves king
with the crown of betrayal.
I'll take your heads until each one of you is dead.
God Almighty... I live for vengeance.
Not for bread, water or a husband.
I would sacrifice anything for it.
Bless me with victory.
Praise hell for traitors!
Ural!
We can't win against the Turks when they are united.
We can't match their strength.
I'll go to the emperor, ask for more soldiers.
It's obvious we can't stop the Turks with only the walls of the Karacahisar Castle.
Back to the castle.
Back to the castle!
I have nobody, Lord.
Nobody but you.
There can be no mercy!
Only rage!
God, give me strength.
I won't come to you until I get my revenge, Father!
Come now, Vasilius!
Taste my poison!
-Mother! -Dündar!
Ertuğrul!
Bamsi!
My brave warrior.
May you suffer for your sins, brother.
My son.
You came home, sister.
Our home is ruined, brother.
We'll turn this place into a paradise, Aslıhan.
It's all over. Over.
We have seen what is true and what is false.
We've known the good and the bad.
We've seen which tree was rotten.
We have been wounded. But we've learned well.
If a day comes when our names are but history...
our deeds forgotten...
our ancestors forgotten...
know that that day comes only because we have forgotten this treachery
and climbed the same rotten tree.
That is the day...
we dishonor our word...
and give up.
That is the day we defy tradition
and yield before the infidel.
Never fear.
Our honorable blood
keeps tradition strong
and keeps our banners flying high.
As long as this blood flows in our veins,
wherever we step is our home...
wherever our voice is heard is our motherland.
God is great!
God is great! God is great!
Aktolgali...
We've climbed all the mountains
between the Caspian Sea and the Byzantine border.
The ground was our bed, the sky our tent.
We gave hope to the poor and struck fear in tyrants.
We did not torment, nor did we surrender to oppressors.
As long as this soul resides in this body
we'll pierce the houses of the infidels like spears.
On this road we'll act like Abraham,
as determined as an ant, we'll walk through fires if necessary.
However, never ever will we give up our cause.
Those who plotted our downfall were themselves overthrown.
God didn't abandon those who stood by him.
Victory will not carry us to pride or riches.
We'll conquer one heart instead of a thousand castles.
We'll unify all of humanity.
Today I might only be telling you,
but tomorrow everyone will know it.
If we keep this goal alive and strong,
one day, this whole world will be conquered by the Turks.
-Run! -Sir!
We have to run. We're compromised. They're after us.
Run! Get them!
-Welcome, my Bey.
Thank you, Aleko. Any news?
Not much since Vasilius cut trade with the Greeks.
Muslim traders have also suffered.
Vasilius has ruined the long standing trade balance with his ambition, my Bey.
Even his own folk are set to rise up, Artuk Bey.
How long can Vasilius keep this up, Ertuğrul Bey?
We can't let a log dam the river.
Trade will return to normal eventually, Aliyar Bey.
The issue is what the people will do until then.
Muslim folk are getting by, my Bey. They can manage.
But the Greeks are suffering.
Did you do what I said?
We're helping the Greeks as you ordered, my Bey.
But more is needed.
It's coming, Artuk Bey.
More will come.
Protect the stall holders. If they go, we'll all suffer.
Don't worry, my Bey. Nobody's going anywhere.
They all respect you and are grateful.
They won't forget what you've done.
Thank you.
Now, let's go.
We'll discuss what to do.
