Copy !req
2. OF THE
Copy !req
3. In every age,
Copy !req
4. in every place,
Copy !req
5. the deeds of men
Copy !req
6. remain the same.
Copy !req
7. On February 13th of Space Century 799,
Imperial Century 490...
Copy !req
8. two hours after
Yang Wenli arrived on Heinessen...
Copy !req
9. he received notification of
his promotion to Fleet Admiral.
Copy !req
10. With this, Yang became the youngest
Fleet Admiral in history at the age of 32.
Copy !req
11. Since the previous record was
set by Bruce Ashby at age 36...
Copy !req
12. and he received the
promotion posthumously...
Copy !req
13. Yang Wenli, once again,
broke an unbelievable record.
Copy !req
14. I'm not so modest that
I'd decline this honor...
Copy !req
15. but I'm not that
happy to receive it.
Copy !req
16. Well, I'll think of it as sharing
this gift with Admiral Bucock.
Copy !req
17. I think it'll work out, because
your pension will increase.
Copy !req
18. If you can collect
on it, that is.
Copy !req
19. Fleet Admiral, I love my
nation in my own way.
Copy !req
20. Yes...
Copy !req
21. Fleet Admiral...
Copy !req
22. you do love this
nation, don't you?
Copy !req
23. Then we must be
able to collaborate.
Copy !req
24. Y... yes.
Copy !req
25. Well...
Copy !req
26. I'll do my best to
save our democracy.
Copy !req
27. The government and I will do
our best to reward your efforts.
Copy !req
28. If there is something we can do
for you, don't hesitate to ask.
Copy !req
29. For now, I'd like you to think of a
plan in the event we happen to lose.
Copy !req
30. What?
Copy !req
31. No...
Copy !req
32. Not that I think we're
going to lose.
Copy !req
33. But if we win,
we'll be safe for a while...
Copy !req
34. and we'll have time to think about
treaties or replenishing our forces.
Copy !req
35. This is political, and is probably
not suited to a military person.
Copy !req
36. Is it foolish to ask you
to make a promise to win?
Copy !req
37. If we could win just by
promising, I would do it, but...
Copy !req
38. You're quite right.
It was stupid of me to say that.
Copy !req
39. Please forget
what I said.
Copy !req
40. I do not wish to tie
your hands in any way.
Copy !req
41. This time, if we're to overcome our military disadvantage with military tactics...
Copy !req
42. there's only one way.
Copy !req
43. In other words, kill Prince Reinhard
von Lohengramm on the battlefield.
Copy !req
44. Prince Lohengramm
has no heirs.
Copy !req
45. That is my aim.
Copy !req
46. You see, if Prince Lohengramm
dies leaving a male heir...
Copy !req
47. his subordinates can use his heir to
continue the Lohengramm Dynasty.
Copy !req
48. But he's a bachelor.
Copy !req
49. If he dies, the Lohengramm
line will end with him.
Copy !req
50. His loyal subordinates will lose the core
that unites them, and will fall apart.
Copy !req
51. They will go back to the Empire
to find someone to fight for...
Copy !req
52. and will probably have
confrontations to decide his successor.
Copy !req
53. It's just as
you say, Admiral.
Copy !req
54. It is because of the sun called Prince
Lohengramm that the other planets shine.
Copy !req
55. If he dies, they will fall apart
and the Alliance will be saved.
Copy !req
56. If we can somehow separate their
forces and destroy them one by one...
Copy !req
57. Lohengramm, being a man of energy and
ambition, will come to defeat me himself.
Copy !req
58. We must create
that opportunity.
Copy !req
59. That is our only
chance of winning.
Copy !req
60. If his subordinates are defeated one by one,
Lohengramm himself will be forced to move.
Copy !req
61. That's very logical.
Copy !req
62. This involves more psychology
than combat tactics.
Copy !req
63. Prince Lohengramm isn't just a
fighter, nor is he just a ruler.
Copy !req
64. He puts the greatest value
on fighting and winning.
Copy !req
65. That's probably why he's
the winner of the winners.
Copy !req
66. Leaving Iserlohn Fortress in
the hands of Admiral Lutz...
Copy !req
67. Planet Uruvasi
Copy !req
68. High Admiral Reuental
arrived at planet Uruvasi...
Copy !req
69. accompanied by Admiral Lennekanpt, where
the Empire was constructing a military base.
Copy !req
70. With this, the Imperial forces totaled 180,000
combat ships and 20,000,000 soldiers.
Copy !req
71. But because of that, the length of their
supply lines was becoming a problem.
Copy !req
72. Even though they had taken over both
Phezzan and Iserlohn Corridors...
Copy !req
73. and had defeated the main Alliance force,
they couldn't relax because the Yang Fleet...
Copy !req
74. the best in the Alliance,
had gained the freedom to move.
Copy !req
75. I said that to satisfy the Commissioner
who's finally decided to do something...
Copy !req
76. but to bring Prince Lohengramm to the battlefield...
Copy !req
77. we must first defeat the
Empire's well-known commanders.
Copy !req
78. Honestly, it's depressing.
Copy !req
79. Well, we should try to avoid the Empire's two greatest, Mittermeyer and Reuental.
Copy !req
80. If we deal with them too long,
we'll lose overall efficiency.
Copy !req
81. Well, this isn't
like sports.
Copy !req
82. It's not like we
get more experience...
Copy !req
83. and improve by playing
against stronger opponents.
Copy !req
84. That's right.
Copy !req
85. We have to win as
effortlessly as possible.
Copy !req
86. We're from the National
Reporters' Club.
Copy !req
87. Admiral Yang, please promise
all our citizens here...
Copy !req
88. you'll save our country from the
bloody hands of those evil invaders.
Copy !req
89. That Justice will always
prevail against evil.
Copy !req
90. That you will definitely respond
to the citizens' plea for victory.
Copy !req
91. Please promise us.
Copy !req
92. Or can't you?
Copy !req
93. The Fleet Admiral is tired...
Copy !req
94. and we cannot release
classified military information.
Copy !req
95. If you want us to win,
please understand this and leave.
Copy !req
96. Hey...
Copy !req
97. For saving Commissioner Desgo and
taking over an Imperial destroyer...
Copy !req
98. Ensign Julian Minci was promoted
to Lieutenant Junior Grade...
Copy !req
99. and was given the
title of freedom fighter.
Copy !req
100. We now have another
Young Hero for the Alliance.
Copy !req
101. Let's take a look
at the press conference.
Copy !req
102. I believe that
the tactic I used...
Copy !req
103. can be effectively used by the
Alliance in future battles with the invaders.
Copy !req
104. Therefore, I can't go
into too much detail.
Copy !req
105. Please understand this.
Copy !req
106. We must say that he
lives up to his reputation.
Copy !req
107. His modesty in not showing off his
achievement is very respectable.
Copy !req
108. He has learned well
from "Miracle" Yang.
Copy !req
109. I agree.
Copy !req
110. After all, Admiral Yang recognized
Ltjg. Minci's talent when he was very little...
Copy !req
111. and became
his guardian.
Copy !req
112. He lives up to the
Fleet Admiral's expectations.
Copy !req
113. He certainly
is a genius.
Copy !req
114. Hey, now...
Copy !req
115. Julian!
Copy !req
116. Welcome back, Julian.
Copy !req
117. You've become some
sort of hero now.
Copy !req
118. Thank you.
Copy !req
119. The Admiral might
be glad I'm back...
Copy !req
120. but he won't be happy
about me being labeled a hero.
Copy !req
121. You don't think he's
jealous, do you, Julian?
Copy !req
122. No way.
Copy !req
123. That never even occured to me.
Copy !req
124. Then, that's fine.
Copy !req
125. If you thought that way,
I would've slapped you.
Copy !req
126. With my back and arm
extended like this.
Copy !req
127. I was famous for having
quick hands when I was little.
Copy !req
128. I can't believe that.
Copy !req
129. Of course, after I entered the military,
I had to act more modestly.
Copy !req
130. It was difficult.
Copy !req
131. It doesn't
seem that way.
Copy !req
132. Honestly.
Copy !req
133. Oh, thank you.
Copy !req
134. By the way, aren't you
looking for Admiral Yang?
Copy !req
135. Yes.
Copy !req
136. I couldn't find out where
everyone is staying.
Copy !req
137. The Admiral is staying
at Hotel Capricorn.
Copy !req
138. He said that he couldn't do anything
alone, even if he returned to base.
Copy !req
139. Hey, Julian.
Look at this.
Copy !req
140. This suits my heart
and my lineage.
Copy !req
141. Historically, you wouldn't find many fleet
admirals who'd eat such a poor meal.
Copy !req
142. I agree.
Copy !req
143. Since I've become a Fleet Admiral,
my pension will be higher...
Copy !req
144. so we should go out to
dinner to celebrate our reunion.
Copy !req
145. I'll join you.
Copy !req
146. By the way, you're as concious
of your salary, as usual.
Copy !req
147. Of course.
Copy !req
148. I won't get paid my salary if the
Alliance doesn't continue to exist.
Copy !req
149. Therefore, I fight the Empire in order
to secure my life after retirement.
Copy !req
150. That's logical through
and through, right?
Copy !req
151. Anyway, congratulations on your
promotion to fleet admiral.
Copy !req
152. Your promotion to Ltjg. Is more respectable
than my promotion to fleet admiral.
Copy !req
153. I'm glad that you were
able to return here freely.
Copy !req
154. You've done well.
Copy !req
155. You've gotten taller and
you are now fully grown up.
Copy !req
156. No, I'm still
only half-grown.
Copy !req
157. I still need you
to teach me a lot.
Copy !req
158. I don't think there's
anything more to teach you.
Copy !req
159. Rather, I want
you to teach me.
Copy !req
160. What kind of miracle did you use to
take over the Imperial destroyer?
Copy !req
161. Although it's classified military information,
you're going to tell me, aren't you?
Copy !req
162. You were watching
that TV show?
Copy !req
163. Please don't tease me.
Copy !req
164. I just applied the tactic you used
to take over Iserlohn Fortess.
Copy !req
165. You applied, huh?
Copy !req
166. I should've
copyrighted it.
Copy !req
167. With my pension and the copyright,
my life after retirement would have...
Copy !req
168. That doesn't sound
like a joke at all.
Copy !req
169. Restaurant - March Rabbit
Copy !req
170. It's good to see that
your business is doing well.
Copy !req
171. Thank you.
Copy !req
172. Although things are going badly, there can't
be a society without hotels and restaurants.
Copy !req
173. Although I shouldn't think this way,
I simply can't worry about the war and all.
Copy !req
174. Yes, I agree.
Copy !req
175. But unfortunately, we
don't get enough supplies.
Copy !req
176. The only thing I can serve
you is a roast beef dinner.
Copy !req
177. Then that'll be fine.
Copy !req
178. And get us
some red wine.
Copy !req
179. Yes.
Copy !req
180. We should've compensated Marinesk at
the expense of the Alliance Government.
Copy !req
181. But the owner of the
Beryoska is another person.
Copy !req
182. I heard that he's an old
acquaintance of yours, Admiral.
Copy !req
183. He's now on Heinessen.
Copy !req
184. His name
is Boris Konev.
Copy !req
185. You know him,
don't you?
Copy !req
186. Boris Konev?
Copy !req
187. I heard he was your
childhood friend.
Copy !req
188. Oh, that Boris.
I remember him.
Copy !req
189. I heard that the aging process starts with
not being able to remember proper names.
Copy !req
190. Aging?
I'm still 31.
Copy !req
191. You mean 2.
Copy !req
192. It's because you said his
full name, Boris Konev.
Copy !req
193. If you would have said the mischievous
Boris Kid, I would've known.
Copy !req
194. He was that bad?
Copy !req
195. Of course. He made his parents,
friends and everyone else cry.
Copy !req
196. He was a horrible kid.
Copy !req
197. I got in a lot of
trouble because of him.
Copy !req
198. Really?
Copy !req
199. According to Mr. Marinesk...
Copy !req
200. many of Boris' pranks were only
possible because of his smart accomplice.
Copy !req
201. Since he's on this planet,
we might meet again.
Copy !req
202. If we do, we'll compensate
him for his ship.
Copy !req
203. You're being generous.
Copy !req
204. The government is the one who
will end up paying for it.
Copy !req
205. Speaking of being generous, you
returned Iserlohn Fortress to the enemy.
Copy !req
206. I'm sure you have
some plans for that.
Copy !req
207. Can you tell me?
Copy !req
208. There's not too much. I did
leave a simple trap there, though.
Copy !req
209. That's almost
a cheap trick.
Copy !req
210. The Empire will
surely be mad.
Copy !req
211. You're really mean.
Copy !req
212. That's fine.
Copy !req
213. I'll take that as
the highest compliment.
Copy !req
214. The only people who know about it are
Schenkopp and Lieutenant Greenhill.
Copy !req
215. You're the third person.
Copy !req
216. I hope it will turn out to be useless,
but remember it just in case.
Copy !req
217. Yes.
Copy !req
218. And Frederica
is a Lt. Commander.
Copy !req
219. Oh, I'm too used
to calling her that.
Copy !req
220. I'm not aging.
Copy !req
221. Anyway, how was it?
Copy !req
222. Did you gain anything
from your travels?
Copy !req
223. Let's see.
Copy !req
224. Oh, I got to
know a weird person.
Copy !req
225. We escaped from Phezzan together,
but he died of disease...
Copy !req
226. Well, it was
closer to suicide.
Copy !req
227. Who was it?
Copy !req
228. A bishop of the
Earth Cult named Degsby.
Copy !req
229. He said he was an apostate
and no longer a believer, but...
Copy !req
230. I see.
Copy !req
231. I never imagined that Rubinsky and Kessellink
would take each other off the stage.
Copy !req
232. Yes.
Copy !req
233. At any rate, since that bishop knew so
much about the rulers of Phezzan...
Copy !req
234. the Earth Cult and Trunicht must
have some kind of relationship.
Copy !req
235. Yes.
Copy !req
236. Before his death, Bishop Degsby said that
the Earth Cult is causing all the trouble.
Copy !req
237. If you want to know the true past and present
circumstances, you need to look to Earth.
Copy !req
238. Everything is
on Earth, huh?
Copy !req
239. He also said this.
Copy !req
240. People must not forget
to appreciate the Earth.
Copy !req
241. Right. That's
a just argument.
Copy !req
242. But recognition alone doesn't
always lead to just action.
Copy !req
243. Julian...
Copy !req
244. our civilization started 7000 years
ago in a small corner of a small planet.
Copy !req
245. The Orient, right?
Copy !req
246. But even on Earth, the center of
politics, economy and rules changed.
Copy !req
247. Since human beings ventured into space,
it's natural that the center moved from Earth.
Copy !req
248. Right.
Copy !req
249. Since we still can't stop fighting,
we may not have grown up mentally.
Copy !req
250. But after our legs and arms grow,
we cannot return to the cradle.
Copy !req
251. At the same time, Earth can't
maintain itself as our center...
Copy !req
252. and if the Earth Cult is conspiring
to bring the center back to Earth...
Copy !req
253. that's just
an evil reaction.
Copy !req
254. I agree.
Copy !req
255. But even if that's so, there's
nothing we can do right now.
Copy !req
256. Then are we going to let
the Earth Cult be for now?
Copy !req
257. But we can't
just leave them be.
Copy !req
258. I have an idea.
I'll have Bagdashu research it.
Copy !req
259. He's much better
at that than fighting.
Copy !req
260. Commander Bagdashu?
Copy !req
261. There's no one else.
Copy !req
262. You're right.
Copy !req
263. By the way, about fighting
against Prince Lohengramm.
Copy !req
264. How are you going
to go about it?
Copy !req
265. There's no reason to just sit here.
We should attack their capital.
Copy !req
266. That is the primary reason
why we are here.
Copy !req
267. Now that we're here, we
shouldn't take action carelessly.
Copy !req
268. Even if we take over the capital, that doesn't
necessarily mean that the Alliance is defeated.
Copy !req
269. We might be troubled with a
continuous rebellion in all sectors.
Copy !req
270. Rather, we should attack the areas
around the capital to stop their supplies...
Copy !req
271. and make them
beg for a treaty.
Copy !req
272. Even if we're successful, my question
is how will it affect human history?
Copy !req
273. In other words, defeating Prince Lohengramm will certainly benefit the Alliance...
Copy !req
274. but what effect will
it have overall?
Copy !req
275. It will obviously have a negative
effect for the people of the Empire.
Copy !req
276. They'll lose a powerful ruler, and in
the worst case, a civil war will occur.
Copy !req
277. People are going
to be sacrificed.
Copy !req
278. It's a horrible story.
Copy !req
279. Must we do that just for
the safety of the Alliance?
Copy !req
280. But we can't think
that far ahead.
Copy !req
281. I think we need to leave the circumstances
of the Empire to the people of the Empire.
Copy !req
282. Julian.
Copy !req
283. Please don't fight without thinking
about the enemy's civilians.
Copy !req
284. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
285. There's no reason to apologize.
Copy !req
286. It's just that your vision narrows
when you think only in national terms.
Copy !req
287. I've said this earlier, but "nations"
are only for our convenience.
Copy !req
288. So I want you to think without
making that distinction.
Copy !req
289. Okay. I'll try to learn
to think like that.
Copy !req
290. Things are going to get harder, but it's said
that it's always darkest before the dawn.
Copy !req
291. They're the famous
words of Ale Heinessen.
Copy !req
292. He said it to
encourage his people...
Copy !req
293. when they escaped from Altair in ships of
dry ice to make a voyage of 10000 light years.
Copy !req
294. That's the story, but no
one really knows the truth.
Copy !req
295. Any revolutionary or political
leader could have said that.
Copy !req
296. But if it was said
by Ale Heinessen...
Copy !req
297. people appreciate it more
than if it was said by a nobody.
Copy !req
298. True or false, it's not
what Ale Heinessen wanted.
Copy !req
299. There's nothing particularly
wrong with you.
Copy !req
300. It seems that you have
a fever from overwork.
Copy !req
301. Get some rest.
Copy !req
302. Today, and
possibly tomorrow.
Copy !req
303. It's a simple solution,
but it works the best.
Copy !req
304. You are right.
Copy !req
305. It's good to get some
rest once in a while.
Copy !req
306. When my body is not well,
my decisions will also be poor.
Copy !req
307. Kissling, tell everyone that we'll make
the operational decisions later on.
Copy !req
308. It will not do
to be hasty.
Copy !req
309. Then have a good night.
Copy !req
310. I'll see you again
when you wake up.
Copy !req
311. When I think about it, I've been taking
things fast for the last ten years.
Copy !req
312. How long has it been
since I last had a fever?
Copy !req
313. You have a slight fever.
Copy !req
314. If you're sleepy,
go ahead and sleep.
Copy !req
315. You'll soon want to get out of bed
and start running again, Reinhard.
Copy !req
316. Sir.
Copy !req
317. Both Admirals
Carlsson and Mouton...
Copy !req
318. and the remaining forces under
their command are ready to launch.
Copy !req
319. Yes, I've received
their requests.
Copy !req
320. We haven't received permission from
the Defense Minister, have we?
Copy !req
321. Yes, but we'll be able to
obtain approval after the fact.
Copy !req
322. Our job this time is to handle
that kind of clean up.
Copy !req
323. It may sound impressive
to join the Alliance...
Copy !req
324. but I didn't think that you
would also abandon me.
Copy !req
325. It won't do any good
for me to remain here.
Copy !req
326. For both your sake
and for our Kaiser's...
Copy !req
327. it is best that I join Yang's fleet
and defeat Prince Lohengramm.
Copy !req
328. Your Excellency, I would like
your approval for my actions.
Copy !req
329. For our Kaiser...
Copy !req
330. I see.
Copy !req
331. You are also going
with Admiral Merkatz.
Copy !req
332. Yes. Excellency,
are you staying here?
Copy !req
333. There's no need to
call me "Excellency."
Copy !req
334. Count Lansberg insists that we
protect the Kaiser to the very last.
Copy !req
335. There's no way for me to go back to Phezzan.
The least I can do is go with him.
Copy !req
336. And I need to take
the responsibility...
Copy !req
337. for having brought
him this far.
Copy !req
338. This is everyone from the Imperial
Orthodox Administration Force.
Copy !req
339. They want to follow
you to the end.
Copy !req
340. Do as you wish. This is
the Free Planets Alliance.
Copy !req
341. You must be
Emil von Secla.
Copy !req
342. Yes.
