Au début du XIIIe siècle, Gengis Khan établit en Asie un immense empire. Quelques décennies plus tard, Marco Polo, avec son père et son oncle, sont chargés de remettre un message de la part du pape Grégoire X à l’empereur mongol Kubilai Khan, petit-fils de Gengis Khan. Pierrot et Petit Gros les accompagnent. Tout au long de leur périple, ils sont poursuivis par une bande de brigands dirigée par Le Teigneux.

00:00Let's go!
00:33Let's go!
01:11Let's go!
01:311190
01:33While the West went on crusade and built cathedrals,
01:36Asia would be reshaped by the Mongol raids of Jajis Khan.
01:40Let's go!
02:10Let's go!
02:12Let's go!
02:18Ah!
02:37Let's go!
03:03Stop!
03:07Have you seen the sizes of the jousts?
03:09Yes, valiant Temujin.
03:11You will find their camp three days away on horseback.
03:13We will accompany you.
03:14Thank you very much, my friends.
03:17Let's exterminate these traitors!
03:40Come on, no mercy!
03:42Yes, it is with a handful of men that the epic of Temujin begins.
03:47This young leader will have a fabulous destiny and, under the name Jajis Khan, will build one of the largest
03:52empires of history.
04:07To proclaim Khan in 1200, they conquered Mongolia and Siberia in 1207, Tibet in 1209, China
04:17was invaded in 1211, Kazakhstan in 1218.
04:25In 1220, it was the war against Khorasan that offended the Mongols and refused reparations.
04:30Gingis Khan assembled 200,000 horsemen and more were armed on the Muslim side.
04:37At the same time, in 1214, for the great victory of Bouvines, there were only about a thousand French knights.
04:46Let's get into real estate!
04:49There is no greater joy for a man than to cut his enemies to pieces.
04:53To chase them away, to seize their possessions, to see their loved ones in tears, to embrace them
04:59their wives and daughters.
05:02This is Gingis Khan's profession of faith.
05:12When he died at the age of 65, reportedly from a fall from a horse, his empire was immense.
05:18It will be further enlarged by his sons and grandsons, the most eminent of whom will be Kubilay.
05:23This little boy, in fact, to whom the dying man gives his blessing.
05:30And if the Pope would be so kind as to send me six wise men of your Christian faith, learned in the seven arts,
05:35and knowing how to debate effectively and clearly prove to idolaters that the faith of Christ is the best,
05:39that all other laws are bad and false,
05:42“I, the Great Khan, and all those over whom I hold power, will become Christians and vassals.”
05:48of the church.
05:51This was the message that the Great Khan, Kublai Khan, had entrusted to the Polo brothers, prosperous merchants of Venice.
05:57when they left him two years ago.
05:59So they return to him.
06:01Their son and nephew Marco are accompanying them.
06:07And we will go to Sipango and Cate, but before that, we will stop in Acre.
06:11We must see Pope Gregory of Piacenza.
06:15This is Acre, my friends. I'm sorry, but we'll have to part ways.
06:19Don't you think you might need a strong boy like him?
06:22And a brilliant subject like my boyfriend.
06:27Wait a moment.
06:30Father, perhaps we could take these two brave boys with us. They could be useful to us.
06:34That's a good idea, Marco. Your friends will be coming on the trip.
06:37Thank you, Father. I will tell them.
06:40You will be with us, friends.
06:41Ooh!
07:00Most Holy Father, the Great Khan whom we are about to visit would appreciate it if emissaries mandated by His Holiness...
07:06bear witness to the West and to Christendom.
07:12This mark of respect will predispose him to support our cause.
07:16That will do the trick, my son.
07:18But Holy Father...
07:19Yes, these are the holy oils.
07:23But we would also need ambassadors like these venerable brothers.
07:27That's true, I'll give you those dollars.
07:29But don't you think we could be much more useful to you here, Holy Father?
07:33Does that suit you?
07:35Well, I mean, I had hoped there would be at least six.
07:38Oh, but you're not thinking about it, brother, it's not even a question.
07:42Well, then, maybe that?
07:44No, no!
07:44The same case?
07:45I said no!
07:46Finally, I can count on two.
07:48I only have one word, so let's give two.
07:52Repeat that Brother Nicolas of Vicenza is Brother Guillaume of Triple.
07:57Ben, where did he go?
07:58Brother William!
08:03Brother William!
08:05But where are you, anyway?
08:11Would you please come down to Earth right now?
08:13No one has gone up without permission.
08:16A cabbage!
08:17Our Father, who is also, protect me.
08:31Listen, we're coming.
08:35Are you men of the Sultan of Cairo who are coming to invade us?
08:38Oh, not at all.
08:39We just arrived from Venice, look.
08:47What would you say to this gold purse?
08:53Why settle for such a small purse when you can have everything he has?
08:56Furthermore, what prevents us from taking them prisoner and selling them back into slavery?
09:01Tie up these foreigners!
09:23Yes, it's a brilliant mission if we stay alive.
09:26We prefer...
09:27But men do not impose themselves.
09:28No, no, don't send us, but we're not made for traveling.
09:31As you wish.
09:33Come on, my brothers.
09:34And we will pray for you.
09:37Wait, God willing.
09:39And you too.
09:40Amen.
09:51Our friends' caravan was traveling through the Middle East when one day...
09:55Look!
09:58Noah's Ark.
10:00Come on, let's not linger too long.
10:11These are their traces.
10:14One more effort and this time, they'll see what I'm made of.
10:23Another day in Mosul...
10:25Wait a minute, what is that black liquid in the jars?
10:28Oil.
10:31Hmm!
10:35Our friends will reach Baghdad.
10:37Just wait until we catch up with them and you'll see what you'll see.
10:40From there a small sailboat will take them to the port of Hormuz on the Persian Gulf.
10:46We catch them, they can't go any further.
10:49I can make this magnificent boat available to you.
10:52I guarantee it to you, stranger.
10:54I wonder if it's really sturdy.
11:02And you, Rakai?
11:05Haven't you seen people who look like that?
11:15If anyone ever asks you about us, just say we went to sea.
11:26You wouldn't have seen those, would you?
11:31They set sail from there, can you see them?
11:34So, we've got them this time.
11:36Come on! Get on board quickly!
11:41Help! I can't swim!
11:52We head back towards Corassonne.
11:59Suddenly, a wind rises, masking the obstacles on the road.
12:02Attention !
12:03So, every time, we get them!
12:07Come on !
12:21With these formalities settled, our friends can calmly continue on their way.
12:25Up to the first slopes of one of a layers,
12:28whose crossing will be arduous.
12:32Difficult and perilous.
12:35Less so, however, than that of the Gobi Desert,
12:38to the dreaded sandstorms.
12:48Marco, where are you?
12:50Marco, answer me!
12:53Marco!
12:54Yes, I'm here, I'm here!
12:56Marco!
13:05Oh, Marco!
13:06Having crossed the desert, Polo and his family will reach the city of Chamoule,
13:10whose inhabitants are renowned for their sense of hospitality.
13:15Hi !
13:21Bandits, let's run away!
13:27Come in!
13:28Come in!
13:30But even the fiercest men sometimes need rest.
13:43It's autumn, the time for transhumance.
13:46Driving their herds ahead of them, the Mongolian tribes descend from the high plateaus.
14:01Hold !
14:02But doesn't it look like it's there?
14:08And this one?
14:10Could that be our big friend?
14:12What a strange breed, that's my lol.
14:32Life is taking shape at the camp.
14:47I'll show you, you filthy beast!
15:02While the hunters go to track the wolf, back at the camp, daily life will continue as usual.
15:08Can we go with you?
15:09No, no!
15:25No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
15:41No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
15:46no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
15:46no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
15:59no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
16:00no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
16:10Hey, do you know the law?
16:13Paid !
16:13The bag!
16:14The bag!
16:15The bag!
16:16If the thief can redeem himself and give back nine times as much as he took, he will be absolved.
16:243, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.
16:27Hey, don't you have anything else to offer us?
16:29There is nothing. It has been said.
16:30Otherwise, he will receive seven strokes of the stick.
16:32Or seventeen. Or thirty-seven.
16:34Up to one hundred and seven, depending on the harm he has done.
16:41And if anyone steals a horse, he will have to lose his life.
16:44It will be cut down the middle of the body with a sword.
16:55It looks as though our pursuers have disappeared.
16:58Now we're going to have some fun.
17:00He'll see.
17:15His Majesty Kublai, having been informed of your visit, has instructed me to escort you and to provide you with aid and assistance.
17:24We gladly follow you to the Great Kublai Palace.
17:43The final loops of the Yellow River and at the end, Beijing, the goal.
17:47The polo shirt journey has been going on for almost four years.
17:51Hi, hi.
17:55The emperor is the most powerful ruler who has existed since Adam and to this day.
18:00Beautifully proportioned, neither small nor large, it is fleshy, very well shaped in all its limbs.
18:04Her face is white and rosy, her eyes are black, her nose is well-shaped.
18:07He has four women whom he considers his legitimate wives.
18:10And also a few hundred concubines.
18:13Be aware that he maintains a very large stud farm of all-white mares, without any spots whatsoever, numbering
18:18more than ten thousand.
18:20And he and those of his lineage drink the milk of his mares, which no one else can
18:25drink.
18:32The sun shines upon the threads of the sky.
18:35Our all-powerful sovereign received foreign visitors from the other side of the world.
18:42It's time to go to work, let's hurry!
18:52Look, yes.
18:53Do you like it?
18:54Can I try it?
18:55Of course.
18:56Do you have anything in my size?
18:58Yes, honorable stranger, wait.
19:04Very good, perfect.
19:05And me?
19:09I only have one on me.
19:11Ah, that will be very good.
19:14I want the most beautiful tunic you own.
19:16I am your humble servant.
19:19You are most splendid, honourable lord, like the morning star.
19:23How many do you want?
19:25Four pieces.
19:27Well, you'll have five.
19:33This mission will allow you to prove your qualities.
19:39Know this: you are proving yourself worthy.
19:42Our friends then went to see the general who was besieging the city of Shang-Fu.
19:50Look at these ramparts, noble stranger.
19:53All our assaults were thwarted there.
19:54My men are exhausted from the fighting.
19:56I really don't know what we could do.
20:01It seems to me that we could try out those famous catapults we were told about.
20:08It so happened that Marco learned very quickly the customs of the Tartars, their language, how to write their characters, and so on.
20:14showing wisdom and prudence in all matters.
20:17When he returned, Marco would tell the emperor about all the new and strange things he had seen.
20:22He did so in a pleasant and intelligent manner and explained the solutions he had come up with.
20:28He was very pleased and showed him great friendship and favor.
20:32Some worship Jesus, others Muhammad, others Buddha; I ask them all to protect me.
20:37'It's safer.
20:39Here is your new mission.
20:43Here, at your service, great Koubelai.
20:47From mission to mission, the years will pass.
21:01Our friends have been serving Koubelai for 17 years.
21:04They would like to return home, but the Great Khan, who is very fond of them, opposes it.
21:12They were beginning to lose hope of ever seeing their homeland again, when one day, three barons arrived from distant Persia
21:17arrive at court.
21:18Their lord desires that the emperor grant him a new wife, as his own is dead.
21:23She is charming.
21:26Could polo shirts take us home?
21:28They are knowledgeable travelers, we would be extremely grateful.
21:33The master, having great regard for the Latins, was very reluctant to let them leave.
21:38Finally, he gave in and joined her to accompany the barons and the young princess.
21:42And he was forced to take on new advisors.
21:46There really isn't anything to be done.
21:49Yes !
21:51The Great Khan gave our friends passes, messages for the king of Christendom, and 13
21:59boats to bring them safely to port.
22:03For the journey that awaited them, it wouldn't be too much.
22:14The return journey took three years.
22:16And seeing the state our friends are in, we easily understand that it wasn't there
22:20a very relaxing walk.
22:37You again?
22:38It's good to come in, but you'll be sleeping in the stable.
22:41At the stable.
22:44The next day, in front of the whole family gathered together...
22:54It's been 24 years since the polo shirts left their home.
22:58The palace of the Great Khan.
22:59The hall is so vast that 6000 people could comfortably eat there.
23:04And there are so many rooms that no one has ever been able to count them.
23:08All of this is so beautiful and so grand that words fail me to describe it.
23:11I believe no one in the world could do better.
23:14What do you think?
23:19The poor, the elderly, and the orphans are housed by the Great Khan and given hot bread.
23:31In the province of Zardendan, when women have given birth, they immediately get up and go to work.
23:38The husband goes to bed, holds the child with him, and remains like that for 40 days, during which time the parents and
23:43Friends come to congratulate him.
23:46Oh no, that's insane!
23:48But that's not all, there's something even stronger.
23:52The great lord has the pith of the mulberry tree harvested, which is found between the wood of the tree and its
23:57bark.
23:58From this, we make a completely black piece of paper and cut it out.
24:01The least of these papers is worth half a penny.
24:04The larger it is, the more valuable it is.
24:05And so on, up to 10 besans.
24:07All these papers are sealed with the Lord's seal, and he makes such a large quantity of them that she would pay
24:13all the jewels of the world,
24:14even the most exceptional that the most powerful rulers of our planet could imagine.
24:19And that is why I say that his treasure is endless.
24:21The whole world will eventually belong to him.
24:24More precious objects arrive in the capital than in a thousand other cities in the world.
24:28From himself alone, more than a thousand charters come every day.
24:31No one, therefore, thinks of dressing in anything other than the rarest silks.
24:35But this guy is really exaggerating.
24:38Throughout the province of Cathay, there is a kind of black stone that is taken from the mountains.
24:42These stones burn like logs and maintain the fire in such a way
24:45that if you turn them on at night, you will find them still lit the next morning.
24:50Oh !
24:52Oh, black stones, that's fun!
24:55There is a river which is the largest in the world and which is traversed by 15,000 boats.
24:59And in Angcheu, the capital city it passes through, one can admire 12,000 stone bridges.
25:04so high that any sail could pass underneath.
25:06the largest ships the Venetian fleet had ever possessed.
25:10I would add that this wonderful city is entirely built on water.
25:14Oh, that's it!
25:19Oh, that's enough, Mr. Milione!
25:211298, Venice is at war with Genoa, Rivard quote.
25:25Near the island of Curzola, on a delightful boat.
25:28With so many well-armed, the fight will be difficult.
25:31At your posts, Paris or Cuba?
25:35And despite our efforts...
25:46Whether man was Christian, Saracen, Tartar, or pagan,
25:50no one has traveled the world as much as the noble son and illustrious citizen of Venice,
25:55Sir Marco Polo.
25:57Despite a few errors, a few legends,
25:59the West will experience for the first time
26:01a true description of this Far East, previously unknown.
26:06And two centuries later,
26:08Christopher Columbus will sail westward.
26:10in search of this catheter,
26:12of these Indies described by Marco Polo,
26:14and discover America.
