1. D-YFI@AniDB
Copy !req
2. I've got to get up.
Copy !req
3. Get up,
take a shower...
Copy !req
4. OF THE
Copy !req
5. brush my teeth,
prepare breakfast...
Copy !req
6. Tea and milk...
Copy !req
7. Making scrambled eggs...
Copy !req
8. and three slices
of rye toast...
Copy !req
9. I'll share them
with the Admiral...
Copy !req
10. With the Admiral...
Copy !req
11. With the Admiral...
Copy !req
12. My biological clock?
Copy !req
13. Even though it would be
OK if I slept late...
Copy !req
14. I'm punctual.
Copy !req
15. Can the Admiral get up
promptly by himself?
Copy !req
16. Admiral!
Copy !req
17. It's 7 o'clock.
7 o'clock.
Copy !req
18. Please get up.
Copy !req
19. Breakfast's ready.
Copy !req
20. Please...
Five more minutes...
Copy !req
21. No, no, four and a half
minutes would be fine...
Copy !req
22. No, four minutes
and fifteen seconds...
Copy !req
23. Really, you're
so undisciplined.
Copy !req
24. If the commander sleeps in, doesn't it
set a bad example for his subordinates?
Copy !req
25. Soldiers get up even if
there isn't a commander.
Copy !req
26. The enemy's closing in.
Copy !req
27. If you're taken by surprise and
defeated while you're asleep...
Copy !req
28. you'll be mocked by future
generations of historians.
Copy !req
29. The enemy's still asleep.
Copy !req
30. Future generations of historians
haven't even been born yet.
Copy !req
31. Goodnight.
Copy !req
32. At least there's
peace in my dreams.
Copy !req
33. Admiral!
Copy !req
34. Will he be
all right?
Copy !req
35. If the commander gets up too early, he's a
nuisance to the petty officers and troops.
Copy !req
36. Will it be like that?
Copy !req
37. Admiral Yang, eh?
Copy !req
38. He was a 1st Lieutenant
at the time of El Facil.
Copy !req
39. He didn't feel at ease
in his black beret...
Copy !req
40. and there was the feeling
that he was a novice at everything.
Copy !req
41. The people of El Facil felt that
Lieutenant Yang was a dropout officer...
Copy !req
42. who even his runaway
commander had abandoned...
Copy !req
43. and blatantly
disdained him.
Copy !req
44. They certainly had no
reason to respect him.
Copy !req
45. He was sort of an unreliable
looking, gangly kind of man...
Copy !req
46. sleeping on the sofa
still in his uniform...
Copy !req
47. not washing his face when
he got up in the morning...
Copy !req
48. gnawing on bread without even any
butter on it while muttering to himself.
Copy !req
49. If I don't love him,
nobody else will.
Copy !req
50. I didn't love him because he was
a hero or a famous commander.
Copy !req
51. But maybe I had a talent for
buying promising futures.
Copy !req
52. You sure do.
Copy !req
53. You sure do, Frederica.
Copy !req
54. But I don't know about
Admiral Yang's feelings.
Copy !req
55. Here you are.
Copy !req
56. It's almost time
for breakfast.
Copy !req
57. Okay.
Copy !req
58. Our last meal
on this ship.
Copy !req
59. Yes.
Copy !req
60. Is that Phezzan?
Copy !req
61. Yeah.
Copy !req
62. Will it be an enemy?
Copy !req
63. Or will we
discover an ally?
Copy !req
64. Free Planets High Commissioner's Office
Copy !req
65. Ensign Minci...
Copy !req
66. there are many things
for you to learn now.
Copy !req
67. You've probably distinguished yourself in
battle, but that kind of thing is of no use here.
Copy !req
68. First of all, if you have bitter
feelings, throw them away.
Copy !req
69. Yes, sir! I'll bear
it firmly in mind.
Copy !req
70. I know there are many matters
in which I lack experience...
Copy !req
71. but please guide me
well in all matters.
Copy !req
72. Free Planets Military Attaché - Viola
Copy !req
73. You speak well, don't you?
Copy !req
74. Your tact belies your age.
Copy !req
75. Your shoulders look stiff.
Copy !req
76. This is enemy territory,
after all.
Copy !req
77. At least,
inside the office.
Copy !req
78. Inside?
Copy !req
79. They're nearly all Truniht
supporters, aren't they.
Copy !req
80. I've got to
be careful.
Copy !req
81. Because if I commit some blunder,
it will bring trouble to Admiral Yang.
Copy !req
82. He's kind of cute.
Copy !req
83. But not used to it.
Copy !req
84. What's the matter?
Copy !req
85. Nothing.
Copy !req
86. If Commander Poplan were here,
I think he would have said something.
Copy !req
87. Let's go take a look
inside for a bit.
Copy !req
88. Welcome!
Copy !req
89. This would look
good on you.
Copy !req
90. Although it's an article
that's hard to wear well...
Copy !req
91. you have the good
looks and style for it.
Copy !req
92. It's expensive.
Copy !req
93. You must be joking.
Copy !req
94. For an article like this at that price,
it's a sacrifice on the seller's part.
Copy !req
95. Last month, I think it
was 20 Marks cheaper.
Copy !req
96. There must be
some mistake.
Copy !req
97. In any case, take a look
at the electronic newspaper.
Copy !req
98. It tracks the changes of
the price index perfectly.
Copy !req
99. Well, I'll take it.
Can I get a receipt?
Copy !req
100. It appears that prices are stable,
and the quality of goods is excellent.
Copy !req
101. The fact that there
are few mistakes means...
Copy !req
102. that the systems that operate
society and finance are strong.
Copy !req
103. It's a big difference
from our own country.
Copy !req
104. Those who shed other's blood,
those whose blood is shed...
Copy !req
105. and those who grow fat by
lapping up the blood that's shed...
Copy !req
106. it takes all kinds, eh?
Copy !req
107. What'll we do now?
Copy !req
108. Conform to custom, and go sightseeing at
the Imperial High Commissioner's Office?
Copy !req
109. Galactic Empire's High Commissioner's Office
Copy !req
110. It's a strange feeling, having enemies
and allies in the same place, isn't it?
Copy !req
111. The other side's watching
from inside, too, aren't they?
Copy !req
112. And I'm sure they're getting messages
from self-interested informants.
Copy !req
113. Well then, shall we
go back to our post?
Copy !req
114. I heard they're holding
a welcome party tomorrow.
Copy !req
115. No matter how I look at
Admiral Yang's example...
Copy !req
116. because "guest of honor" is just a phony role, let's at least go to bed early tonight.
Copy !req
117. Hotel Batavia
Copy !req
118. What are your impressions
of Phezzan, Ensign?
Copy !req
119. Well, I'm impressed that even
the back alleys are clean.
Copy !req
120. That, and there
are so many pets...
Copy !req
121. and they're all
very well fed.
Copy !req
122. You do have
strange interests.
Copy !req
123. How do you like
Phezzan's girls, Ensign?
Copy !req
124. They're all pretty.
Copy !req
125. And lively, too.
Copy !req
126. Oh, pretty tactful.
Copy !req
127. We have everything on Phezzan, from pretty
girls to planetary organization systems.
Copy !req
128. If you have the money,
you can buy anything you want.
Copy !req
129. But you can probably buy a girl's heart,
with just a smile, instead of money!
Copy !req
130. I'm extremely jealous.
Copy !req
131. I'll try my best.
Copy !req
132. By the way, now that you mention selling, I'm
concerned about a rumor that there's a plan...
Copy !req
133. to try and sell the Phezzan Corridor and
Phezzan's independence to the Imperial Fleet.
Copy !req
134. What?
Copy !req
135. I'm worried that Phezzan is going to treat the Corridor itself as merchandise...
Copy !req
136. and sell it to
the Imperial Fleet.
Copy !req
137. Oh dear, the Ensign has
a pretty vivid imagination.
Copy !req
138. The Imperial Fleet, huh?
Copy !req
139. Are you saying the Empire will pass through the Phezzan Corridor and invade the Alliance?
Copy !req
140. Well, that's a pretty
interesting story.
Copy !req
141. But isn't that a
little too imaginative?
Copy !req
142. The Phezzan Corridor
is an ocean of peace.
Copy !req
143. Every ship that passes
through is a merchant ship.
Copy !req
144. Vessels that hoist military
flags can't pass through.
Copy !req
145. Who decided that?
Copy !req
146. Who?
Copy !req
147. If it's a law
that people made...
Copy !req
148. I think it's a law
that people can unmake.
Copy !req
149. Especially the way Prince Reinhard von
Lohengramm of the Empire does things.
Copy !req
150. I don't think he's one
to observe old customs.
Copy !req
151. In the case of
Prince Lohengramm...
Copy !req
152. doesn't he calmly destroy tradition
and unwritten law to achieve his goals?
Copy !req
153. I don't think anybody
can say he can't.
Copy !req
154. However...
That kind of thing...
Copy !req
155. Indeed, even if Prince Lohengramm
harbored such an ambition...
Copy !req
156. I don't think the people of Phezzan
would helplessly sell him their pride.
Copy !req
157. Nevertheless, Phezzan
selling itself to the Empire...
Copy !req
158. is outrageous conjecture,
isn't it, Ensign Minci?
Copy !req
159. Is it?
Copy !req
160. I don't think independence,
at least formal independence...
Copy !req
161. has much value
to Phezzan.
Copy !req
162. However, it's close
to the highest.
Copy !req
163. You mustn't underestimate
that, Ensign Minci.
Copy !req
164. Don't you understand
the occasion?
Copy !req
165. Everybody, sorry. Please
excuse his youthful ardor.
Copy !req
166. Which means Yang Wenli has
probably surmised everything.
Copy !req
167. What shall we do?
Copy !req
168. Even so, there's nothing
he can do about it.
Copy !req
169. Can't he?
Copy !req
170. Nevertheless, it's certain that that boy made
some awkward remarks to the attendees.
Copy !req
171. Even though they were drunk,
how many of them will remember?
Copy !req
172. Won't it become troublesome if their
interests turn to political speculation?
Copy !req
173. It's too late. There's no
time for them to take action.
Copy !req
174. Don't worry.
Copy !req
175. Even if I am worried,
it's not about you.
Copy !req
176. How are you feeling,
Bishop Degsby?
Copy !req
177. Alcohol, drugs,
and women...
Copy !req
178. You've abused all of
the worldly pleasures...
Copy !req
179. despite the fact that you're a religious
man who makes a point of asceticism.
Copy !req
180. Will His Holiness, the Grand Bishop on Earth,
be lenient towards your wild conduct?
Copy !req
181. You forced me
to take drugs!
Copy !req
182. Didn't you sneakily
force me to take drugs...
Copy !req
183. and push me into this
vortex of degradation?
Copy !req
184. Blasphemer!
Copy !req
185. The time will come when you realize
the stupidity of your actions!
Copy !req
186. By all means, I'd like
you to make me realize it.
Copy !req
187. Will God strike me down with
lightning or a meteorite?
Copy !req
188. Don't you fear
righteousness?
Copy !req
189. Righteousness?
Copy !req
190. Rudolf the Great didn't become ruler of
the universe because he was righteous.
Copy !req
191. Nor did Rubinsky.
Copy !req
192. They were able to win because
they had relatively more power.
Copy !req
193. The principle of control
is might, not right.
Copy !req
194. If you had power, you could live without
being afraid of the Grand Bishop's anger.
Copy !req
195. Which is my point.
Copy !req
196. I don't care about
religious authority.
Copy !req
197. You can monopolize that.
Copy !req
198. If we each became the number one
person in our respective worlds...
Copy !req
199. there'll be no need to
be jealous of our partner.
Copy !req
200. What are you saying?
Copy !req
201. I don't know
what you mean.
Copy !req
202. Don't you?
Copy !req
203. I'm saying I'll give you
Earth and the Earth Church.
Copy !req
204. I'll topple Rubinsky.
Copy !req
205. You'll take the
Grand Bishop's place.
Copy !req
206. It's not their
era any more.
Copy !req
207. The 800 years of Earth's hatred
should be eaten by the devil.
Copy !req
208. Hereafter, you and I...
Copy !req
209. You don't know your
place, you simpleton!
Copy !req
210. With ambition and
shallow knowledge like yours...
Copy !req
211. you say you're going to try and
defy His Holiness the Grand Bishop?
Copy !req
212. That's hilarious.
Copy !req
213. It's the lowest
type of farce!
Copy !req
214. Dog, dream your
dog-like dreams.
Copy !req
215. Don't think of opposing an elephant.
It's for your own good.
Copy !req
216. Can I get you to limit your
laughter to that much, Bishop?
Copy !req
217. All of your shameful
conduct has been taped.
Copy !req
218. If you don't cooperate with me,
I'll use them as I see fit.
Copy !req
219. It may be an
antiquated method...
Copy !req
220. but it's frequently used
precisely because it's effective.
Copy !req
221. Its frequent use just
makes it seem antiquated.
Copy !req
222. Damned dog...
Copy !req
223. What?
Copy !req
224. You say there were more than a
hundred casualties in the exercises?
Copy !req
225. Yes. Considering that the exercises were
carried out in the form of actual battle...
Copy !req
226. and considering more than
4 million troops took part...
Copy !req
227. the number of casualties
is rather small.
Copy !req
228. Again, through Boltik, we've leaked the
information about the Iserlohn deployment.
Copy !req
229. Speaking of Boltik, he's come
seeking a guarantee of his position.
Copy !req
230. When the conquest of the
Alliance is complete...
Copy !req
231. the Phezzan Corridor will become an
even more important route than it is now.
Copy !req
232. It can't be a very desirable tactic
to place that under indirect control.
Copy !req
233. Certainly it would be more advisable
to place Phezzan under direct control.
Copy !req
234. But it hardly seems worth
the Machiavellian efforts...
Copy !req
235. of concentrating the hatred
of the Phezzani people on Boltik.
Copy !req
236. I know.
Copy !req
237. It can't be helped.
Copy !req
238. I expect him to fail to
maintain the public peace.
Copy !req
239. So, for the time being, we'll
give him the title of Landesherr.
Copy !req
240. As you wish.
Copy !req
241. This was the day the Ragnarok Operation's
personnel assignments were announced.
Copy !req
242. First of all, we'll send a large
fleet towards the Iserlohn Corridor.
Copy !req
243. The commander of the Iserlohn bound
fleet will be Admiral Reuental.
Copy !req
244. As second in command,
Admirals Lennenkanpt and Lutz.
Copy !req
245. This movement will focus
everyone's attention on Iserlohn.
Copy !req
246. Taking advantage of that opening, we'll
dominate the Phezzan Corridor in one blow...
Copy !req
247. and invade
Alliance territory.
Copy !req
248. I'll entrust that vanguard
to you, Mittermeyer.
Copy !req
249. The second formation,
Admiral Mueller.
Copy !req
250. For Mueller, this was his first operation
since returning to duty after being wounded.
Copy !req
251. It was probably Reinhard's
knack for personnel...
Copy !req
252. that he resolved on putting him, so
strong in a crisis, in Mittermeyer's camp.
Copy !req
253. Indeed, Mueller had hoped to participate in
the battle to capture Iserlohn Fortress...
Copy !req
254. seeking vindication
for the past.
Copy !req
255. I will command the
third force personally.
Copy !req
256. I'll place each of the fleets led by...
Copy !req
257. Admirals Artringen, Brauhitz,
Karnap, Gruneman and Therneusen...
Copy !req
258. under my direct command.
Copy !req
259. Aboard the supreme flagship
Brunhilde would be...
Copy !req
260. Chief of Staff,
High Admiral Oberstein...
Copy !req
261. Chief Adjutant,
Admiral Streit...
Copy !req
262. Adjutant, Lieutenant Lucke...
Copy !req
263. Chief of the personal
guards, Captain Kissling.
Copy !req
264. Private Secretary Hildegarde von Mariendorf,
too, would travel with them on the ship.
Copy !req
265. It was officially decided to treat her
as if she held the rank of Commander.
Copy !req
266. The fourth force,
Admiral Steinmetz...
Copy !req
267. the fifth force,
Admiral Wahlen.
Copy !req
268. On the chance that after the Imperial
Fleet invaded Alliance territory...
Copy !req
269. the Phezzan Corridor
became sealed...
Copy !req
270. The fourth force would
reverse and prevent this.
Copy !req
271. And, the fifth force,
which went last...
Copy !req
272. would have the responsibility of connecting
the Phezzan Corridor and Imperial territory.
Copy !req
273. Furthermore, the fleets of
Admirals Bittenfeld and Fahrenheit...
Copy !req
274. would be standing
by in reserve.
Copy !req
275. Both of them were
strong offensively.
Copy !req
276. When the time to deliver the death
blow to the Alliance Fleet arrived...
Copy !req
277. they would probably
carry out an important function.
Copy !req
278. I order Admiral Eisenach
to support the Iserlohn fleet.
Copy !req
279. Ernst von Eisenach hadn't
distinguished himself in battle...
Copy !req
280. but in rear guard duty, diversion
operations, and land battle support...
Copy !req
281. by silently carrying out
subdued but essential duties.
Copy !req
282. He'd never once betrayed
Reinhard's expectations.
Copy !req
283. Admiral Kesler will be
Capital Defense Commander...
Copy !req
284. and Admiral Mecklinger will
be in charge of rear support.
Copy !req
285. Both will remain
behind on Odin.
Copy !req
286. The start of the operation is waiting for the
departure of the Iserlohn fleet led by Reuental.
Copy !req
287. The date has been decided,
as Imperial calendar November 5.
Copy !req
288. Among these pieces
of information...
Copy !req
289. only those parts pertaining to
the Iserlohn fleet were publicized...
Copy !req
290. and leaked to the
Alliance through Phezzan.
Copy !req
291. National Defense Council
Copy !req
292. Well, it's unmistakably
a state of emergency...
Copy !req
293. but Iserlohn is an
impregnable fortress...
Copy !req
294. and has an unbeaten,
famous commander.
Copy !req
295. The Imperial Fleet shouldn't be
able to invade Alliance territory.
Copy !req
296. That's right! That's right!
Copy !req
297. That's right! That's right!
Copy !req
298. Mr. Chairman!
Copy !req
299. What is it,
Commander in Chief?
Copy !req
300. Unlike the people
assembled here...
Copy !req
301. I can't feel confident that
we'll all be here next spring.
Copy !req
302. Certainly, Iserlohn is
an impregnable fortress...
Copy !req
303. and it has an unbeaten,
famous commander.
Copy !req
304. But doesn't it seem strange that the Empire's
Prince Lohengramm, a genius at war...
Copy !req
305. would challenge us to a battle
he has no chance of winning?
Copy !req
306. What are you worried
about, Admiral?
Copy !req
307. Admiral Dawson
Copy !req
308. What concerns me is that this attack on
Iserlohn may be no more than a diversion.
Copy !req
309. Which means, the enemy's main force
will be aiming at the Phezzan Corridor.
Copy !req
310. Commander in Chief Bucock's
worry is rather original.
Copy !req
311. Admiral Rockwell
Copy !req
312. It's unthinkable that Phezzan would
throw away its political neutrality...
Copy !req
313. and abandon more than a
century's worth of tradition...
Copy !req
314. to conspire with
the Empire.
Copy !req
315. In the first place, if the
Empire grows even stronger...
Copy !req
316. the existence of Phezzan
itself will be threatened.
Copy !req
317. They must have
considered that.
Copy !req
318. Exactly!
Copy !req
319. Besides, Phezzan is also making big profits
through generous loans to our Alliance.
Copy !req
320. If by some chance our Alliance
is conquered by the Empire...
Copy !req
321. all their efforts until
today would come to naught.
Copy !req
322. Would they do such
an unprofitable thing?
Copy !req
323. That's right!
Copy !req
324. That's right!
Copy !req
325. Yes, Phezzan certainly is
spending funds in the Alliance.
Copy !req
326. However, that's for mines, lands, enterprises,
and so forth on each Alliance planet...
Copy !req
327. not on the Alliance
government itself.
Copy !req
328. If the safety of the money they've
invested is guaranteed to Phezzan...
Copy !req
329. then I don't think they would care very
much if the Alliance's government crumbled.
Copy !req
330. Or maybe Phezzan's investing of money
in the Alliance government is also true?
Copy !req
331. Are you trying to say that high government
officials are taking bribes from Phezzan?
Copy !req
332. Admiral, I'd like you to be a little
more careful about what you say.
Copy !req
333. In any case, as long as the Admiral's
worry isn't based on concrete data...
Copy !req
334. it must be dismissed
as mere speculation!
Copy !req
335. For the time being, the subject is the
defense of the Iserlohn Corridor.
Copy !req
336. Yes, we should order Admiral Yang
ahead of time to be on alert.
Copy !req
337. That, and as long as
the fortress is there...
Copy !req
338. we should just have them make
preparations to send reinforcements.
Copy !req
339. That will do it, then?
Copy !req
340. If there aren't any other opinions,
we should end today's council meeting here.
Copy !req
341. Sorry, Yang.
Copy !req
342. So this is my plan...
Copy !req
343. Before the enemy approaches,
we'll hide a fleet inside the Corridor.
Copy !req
344. Then, attacking from behind the
enemy who's attacking the fortress...
Copy !req
345. we'll push them to within firing range
of the Thor Hammer, and crush them.
Copy !req
346. Indeed.
Copy !req
347. I think it's a
pretty efficient method...
Copy !req
348. but we'll have to be aware of
the enemy's approach beforehand.
Copy !req
349. That's right.
Copy !req
350. If only a larger number of
surveillance ships would be approved...
Copy !req
351. But as things stand...
Copy !req
352. Since our recon satellites were destroyed
when Geiersburg Fortress attacked...
Copy !req
353. we can only rely
on manned ships.
Copy !req
354. No additions to the
budget are being allowed.
Copy !req
355. The National Defense Council
knows our budget is insufficient.
Copy !req
356. Cutbacks, again?
Copy !req
357. No, it's simply that, at the political level and
the business level, management is inefficient.
Copy !req
358. That's the reason why
the situation is so serious.
Copy !req
359. Because personnel expenditures are
higher than those for hardware...
Copy !req
360. our nation doesn't
know anything at all.
Copy !req
361. And this is an order
to be on full alert.
Copy !req
362. Well, for the time being, there's nothing to do
but use manned ships for reconnaissance.
Copy !req
363. What's the situation now?
Copy !req
364. The Ulysses is
out on patrol.
Copy !req
365. What's the matter with
our Captain, anyway?
Copy !req
366. Hasn't he been in a really
bad mood this trip?
Copy !req
367. Is it because he was
passed over for promotion?
Copy !req
368. Didn't he lose another
fight with his wife?
Copy !req
369. I heard Commander Poplan took
him to the cleaners at cards.
Copy !req
370. No, although it's
true he lost at cards...
Copy !req
371. he was playing
against General Schenkopp!
Copy !req
372. It's possible!
Copy !req
373. You're all wrong.
Copy !req
374. The truth is, the Captain's
in love with Julian Minci.
Copy !req
375. But, as everybody knows, he went to
Phezzan to become a military attaché.
Copy !req
376. Losing his unrequited love
is the ultimate in despair.
Copy !req
377. Let's be kind to our
poor ship's Captain.
Copy !req
378. We've spotted
the enemy!
Copy !req
379. There are so many ships,
I can't count them all!
Copy !req
380. What'll we do?
Fight?
Copy !req
381. Idiot!
Copy !req
382. Our Iserlohn Station
Fleet is undefeated!
Copy !req
383. It's undefeated because we don't fight with
an enemy we stand no chance of beating!
Copy !req
384. What are you waiting for?
Can't you run away any faster?
Copy !req
385. Don't loiter about!
Copy !req
386. Sir!
Copy !req
387. We've detected
an enemy ship.
Copy !req
388. Shall we pursue?
Copy !req
389. There's no point.
Copy !req
390. I'll have them spread rumors
as widely as possible.
Copy !req
391. Besides, our enemy
isn't one battleship.
Copy !req
392. It's Yang Wenli
and Iserlohn Fortress.
Copy !req
393. Shouldn't we muster our fighting
spirit against the greater enemy?
Copy !req
394. Sir!
Copy !req
395. Now, shall we play the first bar of the
requiem for the Free Planets Alliance?
Copy !req
396. There was also a large number of ships when
Geiersburg Fortress attacked last year...
Copy !req
397. but this time there
are even more than that.
Copy !req
398. Is this a part of Prince
Lohengramm's grand strategy?
Copy !req
399. From now on, we shouldn't
send the Ulysses out on patrols.
Copy !req
400. Whenever that ship goes out on patrol,
it brings the enemy back with it.
Copy !req
401. Well, let's consider
the matter.
Copy !req
402. On the other hand, when we
send the Ulysses out on patrol...
Copy !req
403. it'd be effective if we upgraded
our alert level by one.
Copy !req
404. At any rate, according to
our previous discussions...
Copy !req
405. please make
the preparations.
Copy !req
406. Oh, dear...
Copy !req
407. Admiral...
Copy !req
408. I don't mean to
sound overconfident...
Copy !req
409. but no matter how many troops it ends up
being, this fortress will be perfectly safe.
Copy !req
410. We are self-sufficient, and can
hold out for any length of time.
Copy !req
411. But the Imperial Fleet's objective, after all,
is to break through the Phezzan Corridor.
Copy !req
412. When Heinessen or other Alliance
territories fall into danger...
Copy !req
413. and we're ordered to ignore the
situation here and go to their rescue...
Copy !req
414. what will we do, then?
Copy !req
415. Right now, our allies behind us are more cause for headaches than the enemy before us.
Copy !req
416. If we're so ordered, I suppose
we'll have to go to their rescue.
Copy !req
417. Yep.
Copy !req
418. But if we evacuate hastily,
in the worst case...
Copy !req
419. not only would
Iserlohn be recaptured...
Copy !req
420. we would be pursued
and beaten down from behind.
Copy !req
421. And just leaving the fortress in
itself will be difficult, won't it?
Copy !req
422. Yeah.
Copy !req
423. Besides, even if we succeed at that,
about the time we've left...
Copy !req
424. Heinessen could have
already fallen by then, and...
Copy !req
425. we might be attacked by
the enemy from in front and behind.
Copy !req
426. Well, nothing will get done
by worrying about it here.
Copy !req
427. Lieutenant, send a report of
the enemy attack to Heinessen.
Copy !req
428. In addition, my opinion is that
this attack isn't independent.
Copy !req
429. It's one part of the grand strategic
design of Prince Lohengramm...
Copy !req
430. connected with an attack
on the Phezzan Corridor.
Copy !req
431. Request that they fortify
defenses on the Phezzan side.
Copy !req
432. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
433. It's probably no use.
Copy !req
434. But even if they don't
do what they should do...
Copy !req
435. I've got to help Admiral Bucock who's
struggling alone back on Heinessen.
Copy !req

November 20...

438. Admiral Oskar von Reuental, leading
an Imperial Fleet of 36,000 ships...
Copy !req
439. assaulted the
Iserlohn Corridor.
Copy !req
440. That was the first shot
of the Ragnarok Operation.
Copy !req
441. Fire!
