As Hogg continues on his heroic rescue, he is helped by Chen Hansheng (Chow Yun-Fat), the rebel leader of a Chinese partisan group, Lee (Radha Mitchell), an Australian woman who provides medical help and Madame Wang (Michelle Yeoh), an aristrocrat who is also fleeing for her dear life. He was able to lead them across the mountains and deserts safely.
