2. OF THECopy !req
3. After defeating the 11th Fleet, Admiral Yang
gathered support all over the Alliance.Copy !req
4. The National Salvation Military Council
became completely isolated on Heinessen.Copy !req
5. Retired veterans and units
are rallying to our cause.Copy !req
6. Among them are many who were
sympathetic to the coup d'etat at the start.Copy !req
7. Their opportunism
is amazing, isn't it?Copy !req
8. That's no good.Copy !req
9. We can't place trust in hardliners
who change their allegiance.Copy !req
10. Because, on the whole, the military produces
like minded people with firm beliefs.Copy !req
11. Now they are in
control of Heinessen.Copy !req
12. The members of the National Salvation Military
Council believe in their own righteousness...Copy !req
13. and don't think anybody
can defeat them.Copy !req
14. Planet HeinessenCopy !req
15. Artemis NecklaceCopy !req
16. Not yet...Copy !req
17. We still have the automatic
defense system, the "Artemis Necklace."Copy !req
18. As long as we have that,
even Yang Wenli can't capture Heinessen.Copy !req
19. We aren't beaten yet.Copy !req
20. We haven't won yet.Copy !req
21. Are you worried about
the "Artemis Necklace" ?Copy !req
22. There's that, too.Copy !req
23. Lieutenant, I'll retire
to my quarters.Copy !req
24. Please have Commander
Bagdashu meet me there.Copy !req
25. On the way to Heinessen, we'll stop
by the 6th planet, Shilyunagal.Copy !req
26. Until then,
I'll leave matters to you.Copy !req
27. The truth is, the "Artemis Necklace"
is not that big a problem.Copy !req
28. It just proves you can't win
a war by relying on hardware.Copy !req
29. So you don't plan to
attack the Necklace?Copy !req
30. No, I'll have to
destroy the Necklace.Copy !req
31. The gang who instigated
the coup d'etat...Copy !req
32. probably think the "Artemis Necklace"
is their last hope.Copy !req
33. Therefore, by destroying it...Copy !req
34. we give them a psychological
shock to induce them to surrender.Copy !req
35. Since the Necklace is unmanned,
destroying it won't cause any casualties.Copy !req
36. Right.Copy !req
37. But there are more than a
billion civilians on Heinessen.Copy !req
38. Hostages...?Copy !req
39. I don't want to think that
Admiral Greenhill would go that far.Copy !req
40. But to prepare for the worst,
I want Bagdashu to work for me.Copy !req
41. Julian, wait here.Copy !req
42. Come in, Commander.Copy !req
43. Well, now. At last I can
put you to good use.Copy !req
44. Anything.Copy !req
45. If you order it,
I'll even infiltrate Heinessen.Copy !req
46. Then you'd seek refuge
under Admiral Greenhill?Copy !req
47. Don't embarrass me.Copy !req
48. Just kidding.Copy !req
49. The truth is,
I want you to testify.Copy !req
50. Testify...?
To what?Copy !req
51. That the coup d'etat by the
National Salvation Military Council...Copy !req
52. was instigated by Marquis
Reinhard von Lohengramm of the Empire.Copy !req
53. You embarrass me again.Copy !req
54. That's a preposterous accusation.Copy !req
55. Honestly, I don't much
care to make such charges.Copy !req
56. If Lt. Greenhill hears of it
somehow, won't she be angry?Copy !req
57. It's the truth, though.Copy !req
58. There's no material evidence yet,
but it's not a fabrication.Copy !req
59. Well, it's not surprising
you don't believe it.Copy !req
60. Even so, I will
ask you to testify.Copy !req
61. Understood.Copy !req
62. At any rate,
I'm a convert.Copy !req
63. I'll be of whatever
help I can to you.Copy !req
64. Attention, citizens of
the Free Planets Alliance.Copy !req
65. I'm Commander Bagdashu, a
participant in the NSMC's coup d'etat.Copy !req
66. I must reveal to
you an awful secret.Copy !req
67. Damn that Bagdashu!Copy !req
68. Not only did he fail
to assassinate Yang...Copy !req
69. I participated in the coup d'etat...Copy !req
70. but now he's
turned against us!Copy !req
71. believing it motivated by righteousness
and concern for the nation.Copy !req
72. But that wasn't the case.Copy !req
73. By now, it is
common knowledge...Copy !req
74. that the largest civil wars in history have taken place not just here, but in the Galactic Empire.Copy !req
75. Do you think this
is a coincidence?Copy !req
76. It is not!Copy !req
77. This coup d'etat was instigated as a plan of Marquis Reinhard von Lohengramm's...Copy !req
78. who is now preoccupied with his
own civil war in the Galactic Empire.Copy !req
79. He plotted to divide us
in order to prevent...Copy !req
80. Planet ShilyunagalCopy !req
81. our Alliance Fleet from taking advantage of the current civil war that has split the Empire.Copy !req
82. Knowing that to be true, I knew that
this military revolt was no more than...Copy !req
83. a reckless act by a dissatisfied
but ambitious military faction...Copy !req
84. controlled by the
ambitions of the Empire.Copy !req
85. My friends!Copy !req
86. There is no righteousness
in your military revolt.Copy !req
87. Our nation must bring these useless
disruptions to an end, and begin reunification.Copy !req
88. Damn that Bagdashu!Copy !req
89. The shameless traitor!Copy !req
90. He was supposed to kill Yang,
but instead he's become his tool!Copy !req
91. It seems I've underestimated
Yang Wenli's abilities.Copy !req
92. By defeating the 11th Fleet and suppressing
the other rebellions he's left us isolated.Copy !req
93. His talent far exceeds my expectations,
and I thought I knew him well.Copy !req
94. But to use such political propaganda,
suggesting we're agents of the Empire...Copy !req
95. By spreading such clever lies, he
proves himself still more formidable.Copy !req
96. Admiral Greenhill...Copy !req
97. you're wrong,
very wrong.Copy !req
98. Yang is certainly
a formidable foe.Copy !req
99. But he's not formidable
for the reason you think.Copy !req
100. What?Copy !req
101. He's formidable because he's the
one who figured out the truth.Copy !req
102. Truth...?Copy !req
103. Are you implying what
Yang said was true?Copy !req
104. Here. This is the plan Marquis Lohengramm
himself gave me for this coup d'etat.Copy !req
105. Why?Copy !req
106. Admiral Lynch, why would you go
along with a scheme like this?Copy !req
107. Were you promised a position as
Admiral in the Imperial Fleet?Copy !req
108. There was that, too.Copy !req
109. But I don't really
care about that.Copy !req
110. It didn't much matter who...Copy !req
111. but I wanted to put inexcusable
shame on unthinking bastards...Copy !req
112. who believe in their
own self-righteousness.Copy !req
113. What do you think
of that, Greenhill?Copy !req
114. Your National Salvation Military
Council are just dupes.Copy !req
115. How does it feel to discover yourself a
mere tool of a brat from the Empire?Copy !req
116. How does it feel to know what you
believed was right, backfired horribly?Copy !req
117. It's an emergency!Copy !req
118. The Yang Fleet
is approaching!Copy !req
119. What?Copy !req
120. 300 years ago...Copy !req
121. the founders of the Free Planets
Alliance, Ale Heinessen and his comrades...Copy !req
122. escaped the Empire in
huge spaceships of ice.Copy !req
123. This plan is modeled on the
tradition of Ale Heinessen.Copy !req
124. We've carved out large lumps of ice and
outfitted them with Bussard ramjets.Copy !req
125. Under continuous acceleration...Copy !req
126. absorbing interplanetary matter and
converting it to energy for propulsion...Copy !req
127. they'll approach
the speed of light.Copy !req
128. Whereupon, according to the theory of
relativity, their mass will increase rapidly.Copy !req
129. If we use the right entry angle
and throw them at the Necklace...Copy !req
130. it should be possible
to destroy it all at once...Copy !req
131. without affecting the
planet or harming us.Copy !req
132. Any questions?Copy !req
133. Does it matter if we destroy
all 12 Necklace elements?Copy !req
134. It doesn't matter.
Let's demolish it all.Copy !req
135. Missiles approaching...Copy !req
136. It's ice!
Huge chunks of ice!Copy !req
137. Direct hits at
near lightspeed!Copy !req
138. Wiped out!Copy !req
139. The Artemis Necklace...
Gone... just like that...Copy !req
140. It's all over.Copy !req
141. Our military
revolt has failed.Copy !req
142. We're beaten.Copy !req
143. No, it's not over yet!Copy !req
144. We have hostages.Copy !req
145. Both the Joint Operations Chief and
Space Fleet Commander in Chief...Copy !req
146. indeed, all one billion
citizens on Heinessen!Copy !req
147. Stop it.Copy !req
148. Further resistance will only
worsen the wounds to the nation.Copy !req
149. It's already finished.Copy !req
150. Shall we not face
the end like men?Copy !req
151. Then, what will we do now?Copy !req
152. Surrender and stand trial?Copy !req
153. Those who want to do that should do so.
I will choose another road.Copy !req
154. However, before that,
there is something we must do.Copy !req
155. We must not leave any evidence that our
revolt was instigated by Marquis Lohengramm.Copy !req
156. Admiral Lynch...Copy !req
157. people often pick on trifling matters.
And, sometimes people make mistakes.Copy !req
158. I didn't believe you were really the bastard
you were said to be 9 years ago at El Facil.Copy !req
159. However, I thought you wanted
a chance to restore your honor!Copy !req
160. I am a man very much like
the public rumors say.Copy !req
161. Even knowing that, you're a poor
judge of character, aren't you?Copy !req
162. Fools...Copy !req
163. I've saved Greenhill's honor!Copy !req
164. Honor?
How worthless...Copy !req
165. Dispose of this corpse!Copy !req
166. Burn the files!Copy !req
167. Dispose of anything that
might look incriminating!Copy !req
168. Yang has deployed his fleet
outside satellite orbit.Copy !req
169. They've begun
landing operations.Copy !req
170. What should we do?Copy !req
171. Open a comm link.Copy !req
172. I will speak
with Admiral Yang.Copy !req
173. I am speaking as acting Chairman of
the National Salvation Military Council.Copy !req
174. Recognizing our own defeat,
we have abandoned futile resistance.Copy !req
175. Further attacks
are unnecessary.Copy !req
176. That's good.
But...Copy !req
177. what happened to
Chairman Greenhill?Copy !req
178. The Admiral...
took his own life.Copy !req
179. It was a noble death.Copy !req
180. Admiral Yang...Copy !req
181. we stood for overthrowing the
despotic rule of the Galactic Empire.Copy !req
182. You falsely accused us as
being agents of the Empire...Copy !req
183. but you will be remembered as one who has
lent aid to the Empire's continuing despotism!Copy !req
184. I think despots are any statesmen
not chosen by the people...Copy !req
185. who rule by means of force,
and steal the peoples' freedoms.Copy !req
186. This is what you're
doing now on Heinessen.Copy !req
187. You are despots.
Isn't that so?Copy !req
188. You're wrong!Copy !req
189. We weren't seeking
personal power!Copy !req
190. There was no other way to
end the political corruption!Copy !req
191. Political corruption isn't
just politicians taking bribes.Copy !req
192. That is just the corruption
of individual politicians.Copy !req
193. Political corruption means that people aren't
free to criticize politicians for taking bribes.Copy !req
194. You banned free speech.Copy !req
195. For that alone,
you aren't fit to criticize...Copy !req
196. the despotic Imperial government
or Alliance politics.Copy !req
197. Don't you see?Copy !req
198. No... At least we were risking our
lives to build a better political system.Copy !req
199. We're not politicians like Truniht, who
seek only personal gain and influence.Copy !req
200. We can't be
criticized for that!Copy !req
201. Justice was on our side!Copy !req
202. We just didn't have
enough efficiency, or luck!Copy !req
203. Captain Evans...Copy !req
204. Admiral Yang,
I beg of you, at least...Copy !req
205. Don't let our
deaths be in vain!Copy !req
206. Take care of the future of
our country... our Alliance.Copy !req
207. Admiral Greenhill was
hoping for that, too.Copy !req
208. Farewell!Copy !req
209. He means to die,
doesn't he?Copy !req
210. He didn't change his
opinions right to the end.Copy !req
211. Different people have different
opinions on what is right.Copy !req
212. General Schenkopp, take command
of the landing squadron.Copy !req
213. I'll go down afterwards.Copy !req
214. Yes, sir.Copy !req
215. Lieutenant Greenhill...Copy !req
216. Can I have one...
no, just two hours?Copy !req
217. I know I can
compose myself, but...Copy !req
218. I can't do
it just yet.Copy !req
219. So...Copy !req
220. Lieutenant... what can I say?
Don't lose heart.Copy !req
221. The National Salvation Military
Council has surrendered.Copy !req
222. The coup d'etat
has ended in failure.Copy !req
223. Fair and generous treatment
is offered to soldiers.Copy !req
224. As promised by
Admiral Yang Wenli.Copy !req
225. Do not waste more valuable human
lives in useless resistance.Copy !req
226. Rejoin your respective regiments,
and await further orders.Copy !req
227. Wait.Copy !req
228. The remains of Admiral
Greenhill and Captain Evans.Copy !req
229. Have them autopsied.Copy !req
230. Yes, sir.Copy !req
231. I'm so ashamed.Copy !req
232. Even though you took the
trouble to warn me beforehand...Copy !req
233. I was absolutely
no help at all.Copy !req
234. Not at all.Copy !req
235. It was my lateness that
caused all the trouble.Copy !req
236. No. Thanks to you I spent
every day taking afternoon naps.Copy !req
237. It was tedious, but compared to you,
I had no problems at all.Copy !req
238. In the meantime,
is there anything you need?Copy !req
239. Oh, yes there is. What I'd
like is a glass of whiskey.Copy !req
240. Let's get him a drink.Copy !req
241. Well, what happened
to Admiral Greenhill?Copy !req
242. He died.Copy !req
243. I see.Copy !req
244. And the old man
survives again?Copy !req
245. You!Copy !req
246. You're...Copy !req
247. You should know who I am.Copy !req
248. I'm the head
of the government.Copy !req
249. You're Julian Minci, right?Copy !req
250. Chairman Job TrunihtCopy !req
251. I hear you're the promising
young ward of Admiral Yang.Copy !req
252. These are the members of
the Earth Church who hid me.Copy !req
253. While hidden in
their underground church...Copy !req
254. I was working secretly to
overthrow the military junta.Copy !req
255. So please guide us to
wherever Admiral Yang is.Copy !req
256. He'll be glad to
learn that I'm safe.Copy !req
257. And so will all
the citizens, too.Copy !req
258. Hey, don't treat
me like an invalid.Copy !req
259. I can walk
fine by myself.Copy !req
260. Chairman Truniht?Copy !req
261. Oh dear. Are we going
from bad to worse?Copy !req
262. At any rate, he's
waiting over there.Copy !req
263. Want to run away?Copy !req
264. I guess I can't do that.Copy !req
265. Truniht and the Earth Cult?Copy !req
266. Who is using whom?Copy !req
267. No, Captain Bay, under my secret orders,
infiltrated the coup d'etat on Heinessen.Copy !req
268. He kept me informed of
their movements in detail.Copy !req
269. Hey, it's Miracle Yang!Copy !req
270. Why me with that bastard
Truniht of all people?Copy !req
271. To preserve that
scoundrel's power...Copy !req
272. I had to fight Admiral Greenhill,
who was like my own father.Copy !req
273. Not to mention Jessica...
Dammit.Copy !req
274. Admiral!Copy !req
275. It's urgent!Copy !req
276. What are you
shouting about?Copy !req
277. There's nothing that could possibly
be worth getting that excited about.Copy !req
278. But you know of
Admiral Merkatz, don't you?Copy !req
279. Yeah. He's a famous
Imperial Commander.Copy !req
280. Not as impressive
as Marquis Lohengramm, perhaps...Copy !req
281. but as a veteran,
he uses troops prudently.Copy !req
282. He's also popular.Copy !req
283. So, what about him?Copy !req
284. That same famous
Imperial Commander...Copy !req
285. has come seeking refuge!Copy !req
286. He's come to you
for help, Admiral Yang!Copy !req
287. There's an urgent
message from Iserlohn!Copy !req
288. What?Copy !req
289. If you please,
hand over your weapons.Copy !req
290. That's rude!Copy !req
291. Admiral Merkatz
is not a prisoner!Copy !req
292. He's come seeking refuge
of his own free will!Copy !req
293. It should be common courtesy
to treat him like a guest!Copy !req
294. Lt. Commander Schneider...Copy !req
295. No. My mistake.Copy !req
296. Please keep it.Copy !req
297. Do you think
we can trust him?Copy !req
298. Did you notice if Admiral
Merkatz brought his family?Copy !req
299. No, his family is still
living in the empire.Copy !req
300. I see.
Good, then.Copy !req
301. It's not good!Copy !req
302. If that's so, it's as if
they were taken hostage.Copy !req
303. No. If Admiral Merkatz
was trying to deceive us...Copy !req
304. he probably wouldn't do
so leaving his family behind.Copy !req
305. As a precaution, he'd probably
bring a fake family with him.Copy !req
306. Wouldn't that be
the situation?Copy !req
307. Well, I suppose it
would be like that.Copy !req
308. To someone like Admiral Merkatz,
a genuine warrior...Copy !req
309. such plots are
probably beneath him.Copy !req
310. I think we
should trust him.Copy !req
311. Clearly more than you?Copy !req
312. Such a bad joke.Copy !req
313. I'm not joking.Copy !req
314. I will believe
Admiral Merkatz.Copy !req
315. So, to the best of my ability,
I'll defend his rights.Copy !req
316. If an Imperial Fleet commander
says he'll trust me...Copy !req
317. I think I must
reward that.Copy !req
318. Do you insist
on doing so?Copy !req
319. I'm powerless
against flattery.Copy !req
320. Admiral Cazellnu, I want to
speak with Admiral Merkatz.Copy !req
321. Would you please
swap places?Copy !req
322. Yes, sir.Copy !req
323. Admiral Merkatz,
I presume?Copy !req
324. I'm Yang Wenli.Copy !req
325. Pleased to meet you.Copy !req
326. I must turn myself in to
Your Excellency's care.Copy !req
327. For myself, and my subordinate,
at least, I ask leniency.Copy !req
328. It seems you
have loyal subordinates.Copy !req
329. At any rate, Yang Wenli
will take charge of you.Copy !req
330. Please don't worry.Copy !req
331. Admiral, these need to
be signed before morning.Copy !req
332. Right.Copy !req
333. If you're concerned
about me, I'm fine.Copy !req
334. There are so many
things to do now.Copy !req
335. Admiral...Copy !req
336. Are you sure about the
family of Admiral Merkatz?Copy !req
337. Wha...? Yeah, the Empire's civil
war is probably over by now.Copy !req
338. So Marquis Reinhard von Lohengramm will be
able to grasp complete power in the Empire.Copy !req
339. It's not like him
to try a cheap trick.Copy !req
340. He'll come to destroy
us with great dignity.Copy !req
341. Iserlohn will become
a battlefield soon, then?Copy !req
342. Can there be any doubt?Copy !req
343. No doubt he's thinking how to attack
it with dreadful grandeur.Copy !req
344. Marquis Reinhard von Lohengramm...Copy !req
345. So ended the greatest civil war since the
founding of the Free Planets Alliance.Copy !req
346. For many, it was only a battle
to lose their loved ones.Copy !req
