Legend of the Galactic Heroes 2x22

Directed by

The Imperial fleet takes a snake formation as they approach the Rantemario system. Bucock fleet is forced to attack the center of the snake formation as their only plausible tactical response. The Alliance fleet is badly damaged as the much larger Imperial fleet closes in on all sides. Bocock tries to minimize losses to the Alliance fleet by using a space current to slow down the Empire's advance and disabling enemy engines with fighters. At the last moment Yang's fleet approaches from behind, stopping the total destruction of the Alliance fleet under Bucock. The Imperial fleet reorganizes their fleet and heads for next Alliance system. Julian's destroyer joins up with the Alliance fleet at Heinessen.

3. OF THE

4. GALACTIC HEROES

5. In every age,

6. in every place,

7. the deeds of men

8. remain the same.

9. On February 13th of Space Century 799, Imperial Century 490...

10. two hours after Yang Wenli arrived on Heinessen...

11. he received notification of his promotion to Fleet Admiral.

12. With this, Yang became the youngest Fleet Admiral in history at the age of 32.

13. Since the previous record was set by Bruce Ashby at age 36...

14. and he received the promotion posthumously...

15. Yang Wenli, once again, broke an unbelievable record.

16. I'm not so modest that I'd decline this honor...

17. but I'm not that happy to receive it.

18. Well, I'll think of it as sharing this gift with Admiral Bucock.

19. I think it'll work out, because your pension will increase.

20. If you can collect on it, that is.

21. Fleet Admiral, I love my nation in my own way.

22. Yes...

23. Fleet Admiral...

24. you do love this nation, don't you?

25. Then we must be able to collaborate.

26. Y... yes.

27. Well...

28. I'll do my best to save our democracy.

29. The government and I will do our best to reward your efforts.

30. If there is something we can do for you, don't hesitate to ask.

31. For now, I'd like you to think of a plan in the event we happen to lose.

32. What?

33. No...

34. Not that I think we're going to lose.

35. But if we win, we'll be safe for a while...

36. and we'll have time to think about treaties or replenishing our forces.

37. This is political, and is probably not suited to a military person.

38. Is it foolish to ask you to make a promise to win?

39. If we could win just by promising, I would do it, but...

40. You're quite right. It was stupid of me to say that.

41. Please forget what I said.

42. I do not wish to tie your hands in any way.

43. This time, if we're to overcome our military disadvantage with military tactics...

44. there's only one way.

45. In other words, kill Prince Reinhard von Lohengramm on the battlefield.

46. Prince Lohengramm has no heirs.

47. That is my aim.

48. You see, if Prince Lohengramm dies leaving a male heir...

49. his subordinates can use his heir to continue the Lohengramm Dynasty.

50. But he's a bachelor.

51. If he dies, the Lohengramm line will end with him.

52. His loyal subordinates will lose the core that unites them, and will fall apart.

53. They will go back to the Empire to find someone to fight for...

54. and will probably have confrontations to decide his successor.

55. It's just as you say, Admiral.

56. It is because of the sun called Prince Lohengramm that the other planets shine.

57. If he dies, they will fall apart and the Alliance will be saved.

58. If we can somehow separate their forces and destroy them one by one...

59. Lohengramm, being a man of energy and ambition, will come to defeat me himself.

60. We must create that opportunity.

61. That is our only chance of winning.

62. If his subordinates are defeated one by one, Lohengramm himself will be forced to move.

63. That's very logical.

64. This involves more psychology than combat tactics.

65. Prince Lohengramm isn't just a fighter, nor is he just a ruler.

66. He puts the greatest value on fighting and winning.

67. That's probably why he's the winner of the winners.

68. Leaving Iserlohn Fortress in the hands of Admiral Lutz...

69. Planet Uruvasi

70. High Admiral Reuental arrived at planet Uruvasi...

71. accompanied by Admiral Lennekanpt, where the Empire was constructing a military base.

72. With this, the Imperial forces totaled 180,000 combat ships and 20,000,000 soldiers.

73. But because of that, the length of their supply lines was becoming a problem.

74. Even though they had taken over both Phezzan and Iserlohn Corridors...

75. and had defeated the main Alliance force, they couldn't relax because the Yang Fleet...

76. the best in the Alliance, had gained the freedom to move.

77. I said that to satisfy the Commissioner who's finally decided to do something...

78. but to bring Prince Lohengramm to the battlefield...

79. we must first defeat the Empire's well-known commanders.

80. Honestly, it's depressing.

81. Well, we should try to avoid the Empire's two greatest, Mittermeyer and Reuental.

82. If we deal with them too long, we'll lose overall efficiency.

83. Well, this isn't like sports.

84. It's not like we get more experience...

85. and improve by playing against stronger opponents.

86. That's right.

87. We have to win as effortlessly as possible.

88. We're from the National Reporters' Club.

89. Admiral Yang, please promise all our citizens here...

90. you'll save our country from the bloody hands of those evil invaders.

91. That Justice will always prevail against evil.

92. That you will definitely respond to the citizens' plea for victory.

93. Please promise us.

94. Or can't you?

95. The Fleet Admiral is tired...

96. and we cannot release classified military information.

97. If you want us to win, please understand this and leave.

98. Hey...

99. For saving Commissioner Desgo and taking over an Imperial destroyer...

100. Ensign Julian Minci was promoted to Lieutenant Junior Grade(Ltjg)...

101. and was given the title of freedom fighter.

102. We now have another Young Hero for the Alliance.

103. Let's take a look at the press conference.

104. I believe that the tactic I used...

105. can be effectively used by the Alliance in future battles with the invaders.

106. Therefore, I can't go into too much detail.

107. Please understand this.

108. We must say that he lives up to his reputation.

109. His modesty in not showing off his achievement is very respectable.

110. He has learned well from "Miracle" Yang.

111. I agree.

112. After all, Admiral Yang recognized Ltjg. Minci's talent when he was very little...

113. and became his guardian.

114. He lives up to the Fleet Admiral's expectations.

115. He certainly is a genius.

116. Hey, now...

117. Julian!

118. Welcome back, Julian.

119. You've become some sort of hero now.

120. Thank you.

121. The Admiral might be glad I'm back...

122. but he won't be happy about me being labeled a hero.

123. You don't think he's jealous, do you, Julian?

124. No way.

125. That never even occured to me.

126. Then, that's fine.

127. If you thought that way, I would've slapped you.

128. With my back and arm extended like this.

129. I was famous for having quick hands when I was little.

130. I can't believe that.

131. Of course, after I entered the military, I had to act more modestly.

132. It was difficult.

133. It doesn't seem that way.

134. Honestly.

135. Oh, thank you.

136. By the way, aren't you looking for Admiral Yang?

137. Yes.

138. I couldn't find out where everyone is staying.

139. The Admiral is staying at Hotel Capricorn.

140. He said that he couldn't do anything alone, even if he returned to base.

141. Hey, Julian. Look at this.

142. This suits my heart and my lineage.

143. Historically, you wouldn't find many fleet admirals who'd eat such a poor meal.

144. I agree.

145. Since I've become a Fleet Admiral, my pension will be higher...

146. so we should go out to dinner to celebrate our reunion.

147. I'll join you.

148. By the way, you're as concious of your salary, as usual.

149. Of course.

150. I won't get paid my salary if the Alliance doesn't continue to exist.

151. Therefore, I fight the Empire in order to secure my life after retirement.

152. That's logical through and through, right?

153. Anyway, congratulations on your promotion to fleet admiral.

154. Your promotion to Ltjg. Is more respectable than my promotion to fleet admiral.

155. I'm glad that you were able to return here freely.

156. You've done well.

157. You've gotten taller and you are now fully grown up.

158. No, I'm still only half-grown.

159. I still need you to teach me a lot.

160. I don't think there's anything more to teach you.

161. Rather, I want you to teach me.

162. What kind of miracle did you use to take over the Imperial destroyer?

163. Although it's classified military information, you're going to tell me, aren't you?

164. You were watching that TV show?

165. Please don't tease me.

166. I just applied the tactic you used to take over Iserlohn Fortess.

167. You applied, huh?

168. I should've copyrighted it.

169. With my pension and the copyright, my life after retirement would have...

170. That doesn't sound like a joke at all.

171. Restaurant - March Rabbit

172. It's good to see that your business is doing well.

173. Thank you.

174. Although things are going badly, there can't be a society without hotels and restaurants.

175. Although I shouldn't think this way, I simply can't worry about the war and all.

176. Yes, I agree.

177. But unfortunately, we don't get enough supplies.

178. The only thing I can serve you is a roast beef dinner.

179. Then that'll be fine.

180. And get us some red wine.

181. Yes.

182. We should've compensated Marinesk at the expense of the Alliance Government.

183. But the owner of the Beryoska is another person.

184. I heard that he's an old acquaintance of yours, Admiral.

185. He's now on Heinessen.

186. His name is Boris Konev.

187. You know him, don't you?

188. Boris Konev?

189. I heard he was your childhood friend.

190. Oh, that Boris. I remember him.

191. I heard that the aging process starts with not being able to remember proper names.

192. Aging? I'm still 31.

193. You mean 2.

194. It's because you said his full name, Boris Konev.

195. If you would have said the mischievous Boris Kid, I would've known.

196. He was that bad?

197. Of course. He made his parents, friends and everyone else cry.

198. He was a horrible kid.

199. I got in a lot of trouble because of him.

200. Really?

201. According to Mr. Marinesk...

202. many of Boris' pranks were only possible because of his smart accomplice.

203. Since he's on this planet, we might meet again.

204. If we do, we'll compensate him for his ship.

205. You're being generous.

206. The government is the one who will end up paying for it.

207. Speaking of being generous, you returned Iserlohn Fortress to the enemy.

208. I'm sure you have some plans for that.

209. Can you tell me?

210. There's not too much. I did leave a simple trap there, though.

211. That's almost a cheap trick.

212. The Empire will surely be mad.

213. You're really mean.

214. That's fine.

215. I'll take that as the highest compliment.

216. The only people who know about it are Schenkopp and Lieutenant Greenhill.

217. You're the third person.

218. I hope it will turn out to be useless, but remember it just in case.

219. Yes.

220. And Frederica is a Lt. Commander.

221. Oh, I'm too used to calling her that.

222. I'm not aging.

223. Anyway, how was it?

224. Did you gain anything from your travels?

225. Let's see.

226. Oh, I got to know a weird person.

227. We escaped from Phezzan together, but he died of disease...

228. Well, it was closer to suicide.

229. Who was it?

230. A bishop of the Earth Cult named Degsby.

231. He said he was an apostate and no longer a believer, but...

232. I see.

233. I never imagined that Rubinsky and Kessellink would take each other off the stage.

234. Yes.

235. At any rate, since that bishop knew so much about the rulers of Phezzan...

236. the Earth Cult and Trunicht must have some kind of relationship.

237. Yes.

238. Before his death, Bishop Degsby said that the Earth Cult is causing all the trouble.

239. If you want to know the true past and present circumstances, you need to look to Earth.

240. Everything is on Earth, huh?

241. He also said this.

242. People must not forget to appreciate the Earth.

243. Right. That's a just argument.

244. But recognition alone doesn't always lead to just action.

245. Julian...

246. our civilization started 7000 years ago in a small corner of a small planet.

247. The Orient, right?

248. But even on Earth, the center of politics, economy and rules changed.

249. Since human beings ventured into space, it's natural that the center moved from Earth.

250. Right.

251. Since we still can't stop fighting, we may not have grown up mentally.

252. But after our legs and arms grow, we cannot return to the cradle.

253. At the same time, Earth can't maintain itself as our center...

254. and if the Earth Cult is conspiring to bring the center back to Earth...

255. that's just an evil reaction.

256. I agree.

257. But even if that's so, there's nothing we can do right now.

258. Then are we going to let the Earth Cult be for now?

259. But we can't just leave them be.

260. I have an idea. I'll have Bagdashu research it.

261. He's much better at that than fighting.

262. Commander Bagdashu?

263. There's no one else.

264. You're right.

265. By the way, about fighting against Prince Lohengramm.

266. How are you going to go about it?

267. There's no reason to just sit here. We should attack their capital.

268. That is the primary reason why we are here.

269. Now that we're here, we shouldn't take action carelessly.

270. Even if we take over the capital, that doesn't necessarily mean that the Alliance is defeated.

271. We might be troubled with a continuous rebellion in all sectors.

272. Rather, we should attack the areas around the capital to stop their supplies...

273. and make them beg for a treaty.

274. Even if we're successful, my question is how will it affect human history?

275. In other words, defeating Prince Lohengramm will certainly benefit the Alliance...

276. but what effect will it have overall?

277. It will obviously have a negative effect for the people of the Empire.

278. They'll lose a powerful ruler, and in the worst case, a civil war will occur.

279. People are going to be sacrificed.

280. It's a horrible story.

281. Must we do that just for the safety of the Alliance?

282. But we can't think that far ahead.

283. I think we need to leave the circumstances of the Empire to the people of the Empire.

284. Julian.

285. Please don't fight without thinking about the enemy's civilians.

286. I'm sorry.

287. There's no reason to apologize.

288. It's just that your vision narrows when you think only in national terms.

289. I've said this earlier, but "nations" are only for our convenience.

290. So I want you to think without making that distinction.

291. Okay. I'll try to learn to think like that.

292. Things are going to get harder, but it's said that it's always darkest before the dawn.

293. They're the famous words of Ale Heinessen.

294. He said it to encourage his people...

295. when they escaped from Altair in ships of dry ice to make a voyage of 10000 light years.

296. That's the story, but no one really knows the truth.

297. Any revolutionary or political leader could have said that.

298. But if it was said by Ale Heinessen...

299. people appreciate it more than if it was said by a nobody.

300. True or false, it's not what Ale Heinessen wanted.

301. There's nothing particularly wrong with you.

302. It seems that you have a fever from overwork.

303. Get some rest.

304. Today, and possibly tomorrow.

305. It's a simple solution, but it works the best.

306. You are right.

307. It's good to get some rest once in a while.

308. When my body is not well, my decisions will also be poor.

309. Kissling, tell everyone that we'll make the operational decisions later on.

310. It will not do to be hasty.

311. Then have a good night.

312. I'll see you again when you wake up.

313. When I think about it, I've been taking things fast for the last ten years.

314. How long has it been since I last had a fever?

315. You have a slight fever.

316. If you're sleepy, go ahead and sleep.

317. You'll soon want to get out of bed and start running again, Reinhard.

318. Sir.

319. Both Admirals Carlsson and Mouton...

320. and the remaining forces under their command are ready to launch.

321. Yes, I've received their requests.

322. We haven't received permission from the Defense Minister, have we?

323. Yes, but we'll be able to obtain approval after the fact.

324. Our job this time is to handle that kind of clean up.

325. It may sound impressive to join the Alliance...

326. but I didn't think that you would also abandon me.

327. It won't do any good for me to remain here.

328. For both your sake and for our Kaiser's...

329. it is best that I join Yang's fleet and defeat Prince Lohengramm.

330. Your Excellency, I would like your approval for my actions.

331. For our Kaiser...

332. I see.

333. You are also going with Admiral Merkatz.

334. Yes. Excellency, are you staying here?

335. There's no need to call me "Excellency."

336. Count Lansberg insists that we protect the Kaiser to the very last.

337. There's no way for me to go back to Phezzan. The least I can do is go with him.

338. And I need to take the responsibility...

339. for having brought him this far.

340. This is everyone from the Imperial Orthodox Administration Force.

341. They want to follow you to the end.

342. Do as you wish. This is the Free Planets Alliance.

343. You must be Emil von Secla.

344. Yes.

345. Fraulein Mariendorf ordered me to take care of you.

346. I see. You have a background in medicine?

347. My father was a doctor.

348. I also want to go to a military medical college after finishing military school.

349. And how is your father?

350. He died three years ago in battle.

351. He was a military doctor on a cruiser.

352. His ship was destroyed at the Battle of Amlitzer.

353. But M'lord took revenge on them.

354. I'd like to thank you for destroying the rebellion at Amlitzer.

355. On my mother's behalf as well.

356. Get the license to be a doctor as soon as you can.

357. I'll have you as my personal doctor.

358. Yes, sir. I'll do my best.

359. I wish you good luck.

360. Don't worry, Emil.

361. If the abilities are the same, the outcome depends on luck.

362. I not only have my own luck, but I've received luck from my friend.

363. That friend gave me not only luck, but also his life and future.

364. I have the luck of two people.

365. So I shall not lose to Yang Wenli.

366. Do not worry.

367. That's right, the last time I had a fever was seven years ago.

368. Back then, we were still in military school, and Kircheis took care of me the entire time.

369. If you were still here, I wouldn't have had all these troubles.

370. I'd have you lead the military and I could have concentrated on domestic administration.

371. At the end of February of Space Century 799, Imperial Century 490...

372. the Yang Fleet starts making its move.
