[?]: Kid, you okay?

chapter 413 Walls of Bronze and Iron
(the meaning is “impenetrable”, but the wordplay references the name of the mountain)

[?]: Whoa-ho!

[Deng Ai]: It takes more than that to deal with me!

[DA]: I saw it. The Sun army has about five to six thousand men!

[?]: Be careful not to stick your head out, kid!

[DA]: Whoa-ho! You’re right!

[?]: Deng Ai!

[Zhang Liao]: It’s getting dark. Come down!

[DA]: Don’t worry, Master Liao. I’m still good!

[ZL]: Expand our coverage. Send out our main force from two sides.
(“…left right dispatch”)

[ZL]: The front unit will attack from the foothills!
(I’m not sure about the direction he’s talking about)
[?]: Yessir!

[?]: Vanguards, head out!

[?]: Sir! Zhang Liao’s vanguards are here again!
(“report…”)

[?]: We’re being monitored! Shit- is there no way to kill that rascal on the tree?

[?]: No, he’s so small the trunk is like a shield to him!
(rephrased)

[?]: Sir! Cao Ren and Li Dian have headed to the rear!
(“report…”)

[Cheng Pu]: Any news of Jia Xu’s troops?

[?]: They’re well-hidden in the woods!

[?]: I want to break the siege and set the woods on fire.

[CP]: Hoo.

[CP]: They’ve taken the east side. The fire won’t hurt them.

[CP]: Look.

[CP]: The wind has changed direction.

The easterly wind is here!

The rare easterly wind is here!
(“long not seen/met east wind…”)

{sfx: hoo~}

[?]: The wind’s picking up. Stabilize the ships!

[?]: The wind’s here, boss, is the plan still on?
[?]: No, it’s too dangerous- the enemy has set up counter-measures!

[?]: Things look grim for our master!

[Jiang Qin]: Men, have you all forgotten?

[JQ]: Have you forgotten the oath we swore to master Huang?

[?]: No, we haven’t! We’re no cowards!

[JQ]: Right! If death is like homecoming for Master Huang, we shouldn’t care about our dignity either!

[?]: Turn! Turn toward the Cao navy!

[?]: Indeed, the men of the Sun clan have no fear of death.

[Xun You]: Sir Huang,

[XY]: I’ll grant you your fair name.
(see chapter 408 for call back)

[XY]: Block!

{sfx: sha~}

[?]: Fan the flames. Set the whole ship ablaze!

[?]: My brothers, charge!

[JQ]: Today, today’s the day.

[JQ]: We win or die trying!

KILL~

{crash~}

{crash~ crash~}

{crash~}

[?]: Boss, they’ve blocked all our front-most ships!

[JQ]: Send more! The burning hatred of the southeast…

[JQ]: is inextinguishable!

[?]: We can’t break through. Look out, more ships are ramming from behind us!

[?]: All crew, abandon ship!

[?]: Our ships have struck each other, boss. We’re burning nothing but our own!

[JQ]: Haha, so what? The people of this land have been killing each other for millennia!

[JQ]: Send more!

[?]: See? The fire can’t touch us.

[XY]: What a magnificent wall of iron defense!

{sfx: shoom~}

[XY]: Is there a second trick, sir Huang?

[XY]: If not…

[XY]: Wen Ping.
[Wen Ping]: Here!

[XY]: It’s our turn!

Wen Ping gestured with his hands as his ships surrounded the Sun navy using a formation that they’ve been practicing for months.
