"The bearer is further authorized
to confiscate all military materiel...
:37:07
...to deal with all invaders,
to rout out all traitors...
:37:12
...domestic or foreign."
:37:22
Do you mean that this thing gives
these lice the right to raid and loot?
:37:26
And split the take with Chongqing.
:37:28
- Fifty-fifty.
- Chongqing issued that?
:37:31
That gives these bandits the green light
to kill Americans.
:37:34
I've heard of warrants like this before.
All protected warlords have them.
:37:39
Chongqing licensed these warlords
to knock off American convoys...
:37:42
...and sell our gear to the Japanese,
and Chongqing pockets half the loot.
:37:46
Say, what kind of a war is this?
:37:49
Our government couldn't know
about that.
:38:04
I thought I knew what a rat was.
:38:07
I had no conception.
:38:16
I got a message for you, boss.
:38:19
Before I could get the other one off,
this came.
:38:21
"Chinese government most disturbed
your crossing border.
:38:24
Has filed complaint highest
American authority.
:38:27
Do not make any attack. Repeat.
Do not make any attack.
:38:31
Rearm and release any prisoners you
may have taken. Destroy any documents.
:38:37
Headquarters will expect immediate
apology to Chongqing.
:38:40
More afraid this is an incident.
Sorry. Signed, Fred."
:38:45
Looks like we're gonna get
a court martial.
:38:48
They couldn't have understood right,
boss.
:38:52
We're gonna get a court martial...
:38:54
...for stopping the Japs from getting
our gear. For stopping these dirty little rats.
