00:00Once upon a time, in the land of Cuba, the people were living in peace and harmony.
00:20Then one day, foreign invaders appeared.
00:26Your Majesty, the enemy forces are closing in.
00:28All the front-line commanders have fallen.
00:30What?
00:31All of them?
00:32Yes, Your Majesty, the soldiers are in disarray and fleeing, so the enemy is advancing aggressively.
00:38We must think of a way to stop them, or the palace will be in grave danger.
00:42Oh my, how did things escalate so quickly?
00:45I've already sent my finest commanders to the battlefield.
00:48What do we do now?
00:50We need to think of a response quickly.
00:52We cannot let the palace fall into enemy hands.
00:55Summon the court officials and generals for an emergency meeting.
01:02The front-line troops have been wiped out.
01:03Now we must build a defensive barrier around the palace and prevent the enemy from advancing
01:08further.
01:09Your Majesty, I volunteer.
01:11I'm ready too, Your Majesty.
01:13Good.
01:14One of you take the troops to the east, and the other to the north.
01:17Do your best to hold back the enemy.
01:20Yes.
01:21Will the two armies be able to stop the enemy?
01:30From what I see, it's possible the enemy is not only advancing from the east and north.
01:37But for now, this is our only option.
01:40Princess, it's time for your music lesson.
01:44In a time of crisis like this, how can I think about music?
01:48I will focus on archery and swordsmanship.
01:52But Princess, archery and sword fighting aren't suitable for a lady, especially a princess
01:57of an entire nation.
01:59Precisely because I'm the princess, I cannot stand by when my country is in danger.
02:04I will use whatever strength I have to fight the enemy and defend the palace until my last
02:09breath.
02:10Oh, Princess, it's too dangerous.
02:13Please don't risk your life like this.
02:15The generals are already handling the battle.
02:18The finest generals have been fighting for a long time and are weary.
02:22They need more support.
02:23Enough talk.
02:25I'm going to practice sword fighting now.
02:28Princess, Princess!
02:31My swordsmanship isn't too bad, but I can't afford to be overconfident.
02:36I must train hard.
02:38The situation is urgent.
02:48A few days later.
03:04Your Majesty!
03:05Urgent news!
03:06Speak!
03:07What's the situation?
03:09Your Majesty, Princess.
03:11The armies from both the east and the north have been completely defeated.
03:15The remaining soldiers are wounded, and the enemy is advancing on the palace.
03:18Oh no!
03:20How could they attack so quickly?
03:22This is bad!
03:23The situation is critical.
03:25If we don't act soon, the entire palace will be destroyed.
03:29Send for reinforcements!
03:31But Your Majesty, all the generals have gone to battle.
03:34We can summon more troops, but there's no one left to command them.
03:37What should we do?
03:38Oh no!
03:39Father!
03:40There's no time to hesitate.
03:44Please let me lead the troops to fight the enemy.
03:48How can I allow that?
03:49Even my finest generals are being defeated by the enemy.
03:52You are just a woman.
03:54How could I ever let you face these vicious invaders?
03:58Father, I've been studying military tactics, and I've trained in horse riding, sword fighting,
04:05and archery.
04:06I may not be as skilled as the generals, but I'm capable of defending myself.
04:12Right now, the most important task is saving the kingdom.
04:15As the princess, it is my duty to act.
04:18Let them see that our country will not fall easily to invaders.
04:24How did I become so powerless like this?
04:26All I can do is watch as my generals, and now even my own daughter, walk right into
04:31danger.
04:32Father, don't worry.
04:35I promise I will return safely and drive the enemy away.
04:39No!
04:40I can't lose you!
04:41I will not allow you to go.
04:43But, father...
04:54I didn't expect father to lock me up like this.
04:57No, I can't just sit here while my country is being invaded.
05:01That's right.
05:02There's still the secret door.
05:04I'll sneak out and take the royal seal so I can rally the troops to defend the kingdom.
05:12Why is the princess here?
05:14Could the king have made a mistake?
05:16Exactly.
05:17Letting a delicate woman lead the troops into a bloody battle?
05:21I had the king's orders to lead the army against the invaders.
05:26If anyone has objections, speak now.
05:29I may be a woman, but I've trained in strategy and combat.
05:33Princess, this is not okay.
05:35The battlefield is no place for a princess like you.
05:38It's best if you stay in the palace.
05:40The situation is urgent, and the enemy is at our doorstep.
05:44I have the royal seal.
05:46Disobeying me is disobeying the king.
05:48I dare not.
05:50To turn the tide, we need to understand the enemy thoroughly.
05:54We cannot rely just on our strength alone, as our forces are now weakened.
05:59Therefore, we must come up with a new strategy.
06:03You have a plan, princess?
06:05I've studied the enemy.
06:07Right now, they're charging forward recklessly, eager to reach the palace.
06:11This will make them overconfident.
06:13We need to exploit that weakness.
06:16Exactly.
06:17Princess, here's the map of the enemy's movements and their forces.
06:22Good.
06:23Listen closely.
06:25There's no time to lose.
06:26Tomorrow night, the first group will go to the eastern gate and create a diversion.
06:31The elite troops in the second group will follow me to the western gate for a surprise
06:35attack.
06:36Understood.
06:41The next evening.
06:48Drive out the enemy!
06:49Protect the palace!
06:51Yes, sir!
06:53Advance!
06:54Advance!
06:57That night, the enemy saw the eastern gate ablaze and thought the king's forces were
07:03coming to confront them.
07:05They concentrated their troops there, but Princess La Habana and her elite soldiers
07:09launched a surprise attack from the rear.
07:15Everyone, attack!
07:18What?
07:19We're being ambushed!
07:20Fight back!
07:21Do you think you can easily ambush us?
07:24Think again!
07:25I will do everything to take you down!
07:28Princess!
07:29Are you alright?
07:30Please fall back and let us handle this.
07:31I'm fine.
07:32This wound is nothing.
07:33I must take the enemy commander's head to avenge our fallen ones.
07:34Surrender!
07:35A puny lassie like you trying to win glory on the battlefield?
07:36Charge!
07:37Charge!
07:38Charge!
07:39Charge!
07:40Charge!
07:41Charge!
07:42Charge!
07:43Charge!
07:44Charge!
07:45Charge!
07:46Charge!
07:47Charge!
07:48Charge!
07:49Charge!
07:50Charge!
07:51Charge!
07:52Charge!
07:53Charge!
07:54Charge!
07:55Charge!
07:56Charge!
07:58Attack!
08:00Crush them for me!
08:03That night, the enemy fell into the trap of Princess La Habana and was caught off guard.
08:09Many were killed, and the rest fled in panic and defeated.
08:14Princess La Habana led the troops in pursuit, but a poison arrow from the enemy struck her.
08:21Princess!
08:22Princess!
08:23Just leave me.
08:26You must chase the enemy.
08:28But you're wounded.
08:30I said I'm fine.
08:32Focus on the bigger picture.
08:34Go quickly.
08:36The soldiers need your leadership.
08:38Princess.
08:42Princess!
08:43Princess!
08:44I've returned.
08:46We've driven the enemy away.
08:48When the victorious troops returned, they found that Princess La Habana had already
08:53passed away, lying beside her loyal horse.
08:56She had died a heroic death, still holding her sword.
09:01Princess, we've returned victorious.
09:04Please wake up and celebrate with us.
09:06Princess!
09:07Princess!
09:09Princess!
09:17Oh no!
09:18My daughter!
09:20My child!
09:24The royal army returned victorious, but their joy was mingled with sorrow for the brave princess.
09:31From that day on, the capital of Cuba was named La Habana in her honor.
