2. OF THE
Copy !req
3. GALACTIC HEROES
Copy !req
4. Universal Century 799, Imperial
Year 490, at 22:40 on May 5th...
Copy !req
5. D-YFI@AniDB
Copy !req
6. Yang's fleet had closed
within firing range...
Copy !req
7. of Reinhard von Lohengramm's
flagship, the Brunhild.
Copy !req
8. Sir!
Copy !req
9. Emergency message incoming
from the capital, Heinessen!
Copy !req
10. "Unconditional surrender?"
Copy !req
11. What the hell are those bastards
on Heinessen thinking?
Copy !req
12. We're about to win...
Copy !req
13. No! We've won!
Copy !req
14. We've got our hands around the
Empire's neck, and are about to squeeze!
Copy !req
15. Why the hell're we
stopping the fight now?
Copy !req
16. What's the meaning of this?
Copy !req
17. The Alliance forces have stopped advancing.
In addition, they've asked for a ceasefire.
Copy !req
18. Commander, I have
something to say.
Copy !req
19. I know what you're about to say.
So there's no need to say it.
Copy !req
20. If you know, then please
reaffirm those orders!
Copy !req
21. Do it!
Copy !req
22. Ignore those orders from the
government, and order a full assault!
Copy !req
23. Then you will have
seized three things:
Copy !req
24. Prince Lohengramm's life, the history
of the universe, and the future!
Copy !req
25. Harden your resolve.
Copy !req
26. If you would
only go forward...
Copy !req
27. then you can put the history of the
universe back on its proper course!
Copy !req
28. There is that option.
Copy !req
29. But those clothes
don't fit me.
Copy !req
30. Send out the order to the fleet
to retreat, Lt. Cmdr. Greenhill.
Copy !req
31. Yes, Admiral.
Copy !req
32. 2240, 5 May UC 799/RC 490
Copy !req
33. Madness!
Copy !req
34. Why did this
happen so suddenly?
Copy !req
35. Another moment, and
they would have won!
Copy !req
36. What reason could
they possibly have...
Copy !req
37. for abandoning a victory
right before their very eyes?
Copy !req
38. That reason unfolded three days prior,
from an incident in the Eleuthera Starzone.
Copy !req
39. Eleuthera Starzone - 2 May
Copy !req
40. Hailing approaching
unidentified ship!
Copy !req
41. This is the Imperial fleet serving
under Admiral Mittermeyer.
Copy !req
42. Heave to,
or we'll open fire!
Copy !req
43. We're friendly forces. We seek an
audience with the commander!
Copy !req
44. Fraulein Mariendorf!
What're you doing here?
Copy !req
45. Are you saying it's already too late
to rush to the Vermilion Starzone?
Copy !req
46. Yes.
Copy !req
47. Even the quick legs of the Gale Wolf would not make it in time to help Prince Lohengramm.
Copy !req
48. Then what do
you propose?
Copy !req
49. I have a feeling you've got
something in mind, Fraulein.
Copy !req
50. If there were only one ship,
it might make it to Vermilion on time.
Copy !req
51. However, moving a large fleet there
would take at least four days.
Copy !req
52. It's now May 2nd.
It'd arrive on May 6th.
Copy !req
53. Before I came here, I gauged the
situation of the battle at Vermilion...
Copy !req
54. and the aggressiveness of the
Alliance forces was unusually strong.
Copy !req
55. Extrapolating from that, if it took us
until May 6th to reach the battlefield...
Copy !req
56. victory would probably
have been decided by then.
Copy !req
57. On the other hand, we're only two
days away from the planet Heinessen.
Copy !req
58. The Alliance has committed
all of its forces to Vermilion.
Copy !req
59. Even though it's the capital,
the planet is probably undefended.
Copy !req
60. That means we can attack Heinessen,
take down the Alliance government...
Copy !req
61. and make them order
Admiral Yang to stop fighting.
Copy !req
62. I see.
Copy !req
63. There's another way to reinforce his
fleet other than rushing to the battlefield.
Copy !req
64. Actually, I brought this idea up with
Prince Lohengramm, but it was rejected.
Copy !req
65. He said that victory had meaning
only if the battle was won.
Copy !req
66. I do believe that
his views are right...
Copy !req
67. but if he loses,
then all is lost.
Copy !req
68. Do you believe that Prince
Lohengramm will be defeated?
Copy !req
69. Yes, from my analysis
of this situation.
Copy !req
70. Prince Lohengramm will taste
the first and last defeat of his life.
Copy !req
71. I understand
your viewpoint...
Copy !req
72. But, Fraulein,
there is one problem.
Copy !req
73. That is, will Yang Wenli obey such
orders from his own government?
Copy !req
74. From his viewpoint, why should
he stop when victory is at hand?
Copy !req
75. Besides, if his
government has fallen...
Copy !req
76. it would be quite easy
for him to seize power.
Copy !req
77. Don't you think so?
Copy !req
78. I considered that.
Copy !req
79. I believe that Yang Wenli
will obey an order to cease fire.
Copy !req
80. If he had wanted to seize power,
he's had quite a few chances.
Copy !req
81. But every time, he forsook that chance, and
remained a soldier, defending the borders.
Copy !req
82. I think Yang Wenli knows there's
something more important than authority.
Copy !req
83. I think that it's
an admirable quality...
Copy !req
84. but, as despicable as it might be,
we have to use it against him.
Copy !req
85. But it's possible that he'll develop
a sudden desire for authority...
Copy !req
86. and ignore the cease fire
order from his government.
Copy !req
87. This chance is much more
appealing than those from the past.
Copy !req
88. That's right.
I can't say for sure.
Copy !req
89. But do you believe that
my proposal is useless?
Copy !req
90. No, not at all,
Fraulein Mariendorf.
Copy !req
91. We will do as
you've planned.
Copy !req
92. In any case,
there's no other way.
Copy !req
93. Thank you very much
for your decision, sir.
Copy !req
94. But it wouldn't do
for me to go alone.
Copy !req
95. I trust you
realize why.
Copy !req
96. Yes, because if you don't
go to help Prince Lohengramm...
Copy !req
97. and instead attack
Heinessen by yourself...
Copy !req
98. people will suspect that
you have political aspirations.
Copy !req
99. So who will you take with you,
to share the glory?
Copy !req
100. He's in the neighboring starzone,
and easy to communicate with.
Copy !req
101. A man whose strength
can be counted upon.
Copy !req
102. His name is
Oskar von Reuental.
Copy !req
103. Fraulein, do you have
a different opinion?
Copy !req
104. No. He's the natural candidate.
Copy !req
105. That's the plan.
Copy !req
106. What will Admiral
Reuental think of this?
Copy !req
107. Might it turn the Imperial
forces against one another?
Copy !req
108. My, you have an imagination
as rich as literature.
Copy !req
109. Reuental is my
closest friend...
Copy !req
110. But I'm not such
a warm person...
Copy !req
111. that I would befriend an unreasonable
man for more than ten years.
Copy !req
112. You're free to think whatever
you're thinking privately...
Copy !req
113. but do not say aloud something
that might cause a misunderstanding.
Copy !req
114. Yes, sir.
My apologies.
Copy !req
115. I was out of line.
Copy !req
116. Go to high
battle readiness!
Copy !req
117. What for?
Copy !req
118. Isn't this what a soldier should do,
be ready for enemy attack?
Copy !req
119. This is enemy territory, not the playground
of some countryside primary school!
Copy !req
120. We can't be fooling the teacher
and taking afternoon naps!
Copy !req
121. Yes, sir!
Sorry, sir.
Copy !req
122. Right away, sir.
Copy !req
123. I wonder if I'm
thinking too much.
Copy !req
124. Rear Admiral Bayerlein, from
the neighboring Mittermeyer Fleet...
Copy !req
125. has taken extraordinary
defensive measures.
Copy !req
126. Perhaps he's received intel
on a possible enemy ambush?
Copy !req
127. Incoming message from
Admiral Mittermeyer!
Copy !req
128. On screen.
Copy !req
129. I see...
Copy !req
130. If I not only refuse the operation,
but indeed move against it...
Copy !req
131. we'll have to do battle?
Copy !req
132. How unlike Mittermeyer.
Copy !req
133. Perhaps it was
Bayerlein's initiative.
Copy !req
134. Have I committed
the ultimate folly?
Copy !req
135. Have I made men of extraordinary
ambition and talent...
Copy !req
136. realize what an extraordinary
opportunity this is?
Copy !req
137. If there's no way that anyone could
make it in time to save him...
Copy !req
138. perhaps ambition might bud
in men who had none before.
Copy !req
139. If I don't turn around,
I wonder what will happen?
Copy !req
140. Between the two men known
as the pillars of the Empire...
Copy !req
141. I chose to tell my plans
not to Admiral Reuental...
Copy !req
142. but chose to appeal to
Admiral Mittermeyer.
Copy !req
143. Was it because I sensed subconsciously
the danger that lay there?
Copy !req
144. I understand.
Copy !req
145. As you've proposed, I will go along
with Fraulein Mariendorf's plan...
Copy !req
146. and order the entire fleet to
launch an assault on Heinessen.
Copy !req
147. To make the final plans,
I'll meet you at your ship.
Copy !req
148. Of course, that'll be when
my fleet joins up with yours.
Copy !req
149. If I ask Mittermeyer
to come meet me...
Copy !req
150. That bloodhound, Bayerlein,
might overreact...
Copy !req
151. and think that I was
taking him hostage.
Copy !req
152. No need to make
things difficult yet.
Copy !req
153. 5 May
Copy !req
154. Mittermeyer and Reuental, the two
celebrated pillars of the Empire...
Copy !req
155. Heinessenopolis
Copy !req
156. led a fleet of over
thirty thousand ships...
Copy !req
157. in the assault on the
Alliance capital, Heinessen.
Copy !req
158. That was on May 5th.
Copy !req
159. This is the Imperial High Admiral
Wolfgang Mittermeyer speaking.
Copy !req
160. The airspace above your capital
is under our military control.
Copy !req
161. I demand dialogue with the government
of the Free Planets Alliance.
Copy !req
162. Cease all military action,
and stand down.
Copy !req
163. Strategical Planning Center
Copy !req
164. Otherwise, we will commence
a full assault on Heinessen.
Copy !req
165. You have three
hours to consider.
Copy !req
166. In the meantime,
enjoy this demonstration.
Copy !req
167. This should do.
Copy !req
168. People in power don't bat an eye when the
houses of ordinary people are destroyed.
Copy !req
169. But when government buildings are
destroyed, the blood drains from their faces.
Copy !req
170. Are you trying not to
involve ordinary civilians?
Copy !req
171. Well, I was an
ordinary civilian once.
Copy !req
172. Sir, could you
send another message?
Copy !req
173. Tell them if they surrender, we won't
prosecute even their highest ranking people.
Copy !req
174. I think that this will provide them
a direction for their decision.
Copy !req
175. Ordinarily, that would
be rather disappointing.
Copy !req
176. But I think it might
work as you said.
Copy !req
177. I'll send the message.
Copy !req
178. Here's the conclusion.
Copy !req
179. We must accept the
Imperial forces' demands.
Copy !req
180. We have no choice, given that
they've threatened an all-out attack.
Copy !req
181. Chairman...!
Copy !req
182. Have I been sacked?
Copy !req
183. If not, then the right to
end this conflict is still mine.
Copy !req
184. I'm merely trying
to carry out my duty.
Copy !req
185. Please stop this!
Copy !req
186. You have no right to use the
privilege of democratic rule...
Copy !req
187. to destroy the spirit and
the history of that democracy!
Copy !req
188. Do you mean for one man to erode
the fruits of two and a half centuries...
Copy !req
189. of this democracy
founded by Ale Heinessen?
Copy !req
190. You've got a lot
of nerve, Islands.
Copy !req
191. You may have forgotten this,
but I remember quite well...
Copy !req
192. That night, when you brought
a silver vase to my house...
Copy !req
193. and begged me for a
position on the High Council.
Copy !req
194. The companies from whom you received
donations and kickbacks, and how much.
Copy !req
195. How much you dipped into election
funds, to buy that weekend getaway.
Copy !req
196. How you used public funds for
a vacation with your mistress.
Copy !req
197. I know all of it.
Copy !req
198. You're right,
I'm a third-rate politician.
Copy !req
199. It was because of you that
I've been able to climb so high.
Copy !req
200. I'm indebted to you.
Copy !req
201. That's why I can't let you take on forever
the stench of a man who destroyed a nation!
Copy !req
202. Please, reconsider!
Copy !req
203. If we refuse to surrender,
perhaps we'll die here.
Copy !req
204. But if Admiral Yang uses this
time to kill Prince Lohengramm...
Copy !req
205. the Alliance
will be saved!
Copy !req
206. If Prince Lohengramm dies, the
Imperial forces will return home.
Copy !req
207. While they fight it out
to establish succession...
Copy !req
208. Admiral Yang can rebuild
the defenses of this nation.
Copy !req
209. The ones who succeed
us will aid him in...
Copy !req
210. Yang Wenli, you say?
Copy !req
211. Think about this:
Copy !req
212. If that moron Yang Wenli hadn't destroyed the
Artemis' Necklace that protected this planet...
Copy !req
213. we wouldn't be under
attack by the Imperial forces!
Copy !req
214. This situation is
Yang Wenli's fault.
Copy !req
215. A great leader, you say?
Copy !req
216. He's just an incompetent
who couldn't see the future!
Copy !req
217. Artemis' Necklace.
Iserlohn Fortress.
Copy !req
218. Haven't you noticed yet?
Copy !req
219. No matter how great the hardware,
the important thing is who's using it.
Copy !req
220. Isn't this situation the danger
that Yang always warned us of?
Copy !req
221. Who is it who ignored his warnings,
and allowed things to come to this?
Copy !req
222. Yang's fighting for dear life,
in such dire circumstances...
Copy !req
223. and there are still those who would hinder
his actions in exchange for their own safety.
Copy !req
224. In other words, the life
of the Alliance is at an end!
Copy !req
225. Its politicians
who toy with power.
Copy !req
226. It's opportunistic
soldiers, as at Amlitzer...
Copy !req
227. No, its citizens have turned over rulership
to politicians, instead of participating in it!
Copy !req
228. The people have democratic
principles on their lips...
Copy !req
229. but can't spare the
effort to safeguard it!
Copy !req
230. The collapse of a government is
the sin of its rulers and leaders.
Copy !req
231. The collapse of democratic rule
is the sin of every citizen!
Copy !req
232. Are you done
with your lecture?
Copy !req
233. Yes.
The lecture is over.
Copy !req
234. Now is the
time for action.
Copy !req
235. Listen closely,
Chairman Truniht.
Copy !req
236. I'll stop you,
even if it means my life!
Copy !req
237. Sir!
Copy !req
238. Stop right there.
Copy !req
239. What the...?
Copy !req
240. Earth Church?
Copy !req
241. Place them under arrest.
Copy !req
242. What the hell's wrong
with the capital?
Copy !req
243. Getting besieged by the
Imperial forces, and...
Copy !req
244. We've surrendered.
It's an unconditional surrender.
Copy !req
245. Call it shotgun peace.
Copy !req
246. We've put up both hands
and asked for help.
Copy !req
247. So what'll happen
to the Alliance?
Copy !req
248. What'll happen?
Copy !req
249. We'll become just another
part of the Empire.
Copy !req
250. Maybe we'll receive a semblance of
autonomy, but it'll be just that, a semblance.
Copy !req
251. And it probably
won't last long.
Copy !req
252. What'll happen then?
Copy !req
253. How do I know?
Copy !req
254. Go ask that blond brat,
Prince Lohengramm!
Copy !req
255. From now on,
he'll be our master!
Copy !req
256. We're on the
side of justice!
Copy !req
257. We must not bend knee to
the darkness of dictatorship!
Copy !req
258. This world is sick!
Copy !req
259. The government is aiding
and abetting the enemy!
Copy !req
260. That's right! The
government has betrayed us!
Copy !req
261. The government has betrayed
the trust and hopes of the people!
Copy !req
262. Those bastards are traitors! There's
no need for us to obey their orders!
Copy !req
263. Yeah!
That's right!
Copy !req
264. But my family
is all on Heinessen.
Copy !req
265. If we refuse to surrender,
and there's a full assault...
Copy !req
266. If the government
surrenders, my family will...
Copy !req
267. What did you say,
you bastard?
Copy !req
268. We'll go and
ask Admiral Yang!
Copy !req
269. We'll ask him to mete out true justice,
and not to obey this ridiculous ceasefire!
Copy !req
270. Yeah!
Let's do that!
Copy !req
271. Yeah! Yeah!
Copy !req
272. Admiral Yang!
Copy !req
273. Let's go ask Miracle Yang!
Copy !req
274. General Schenkopp.
Copy !req
275. So you've come all
this way to see me.
Copy !req
276. May I presume something?
Copy !req
277. You and I think the same way, that
Admiral Yang should ignore the ceasefire?
Copy !req
278. I understand
your feelings.
Copy !req
279. But this would set a
bad example in history.
Copy !req
280. If we allow the military to ignore orders from
the government, and act on its own accord...
Copy !req
281. the most important aspect
of democratic rule...
Copy !req
282. the ability to regulate the military on
behalf of the people would disappear.
Copy !req
283. Do you believe that Admiral Yang
could set such a precedent?
Copy !req
284. Then let me
ask you this.
Copy !req
285. If the government hands down orders
to slaughter defenseless civilians...
Copy !req
286. do you think that the military
should obey such orders?
Copy !req
287. Of course not!
Copy !req
288. When an immoral act tests one's honor
of being human, or being a soldier...
Copy !req
289. I think that one
must be human first.
Copy !req
290. If so, even given orders by the government,
one would have no choice but to refuse.
Copy !req
291. But that's why,
excepting those situations...
Copy !req
292. the military of a democratic nation
should obey the orders of its government.
Copy !req
293. Otherwise, even if it were
for the sake of humanity...
Copy !req
294. it would be considered
a selfish act, right?
Copy !req
295. Boy...
Copy !req
296. I mean,
Ltjg Julian Minci.
Copy !req
297. What you said is true, but I also
understand that level of rationalization.
Copy !req
298. Even though I understand,
I had to say it.
Copy !req
299. I know.
Copy !req
300. Admiral Yang has
no political ambition.
Copy !req
301. Perhaps he has no
talent for rulership.
Copy !req
302. But he'd never treat the nation as
his own private toy, like Truniht...
Copy !req
303. turn politics into a bauble,
and betray his people.
Copy !req
304. Yeah.
Copy !req
305. Admiral Yang may not have a talent for
rulership that will be remembered in history...
Copy !req
306. but at this moment, he
only needs to equal Job Truniht.
Copy !req
307. I agree. I agree.
Copy !req
308. But Chairman Truniht is a
ruler chosen by suffrage.
Copy !req
309. Even though it might be
the result of bad vision...
Copy !req
310. no matter how long
that might take.
Copy !req
311. Professional soldiers must never
be allowed to use violence...
Copy !req
312. to correct the
errors of the people.
Copy !req
313. Otherwise, it'll be the same as
the coup d'etat two years ago.
Copy !req
314. It'll turn into military rule,
oppressing the people.
Copy !req
315. The Galactic Empire may demand
Admiral Yang's life, as the price of peace.
Copy !req
316. If the government accedes to those
demands, and orders Admiral Yang's death...
Copy !req
317. then what will we do?
Copy !req
318. Will we willingly
accept those orders?
Copy !req
319. I'll never let
that happen! Never!
Copy !req
320. But one must obey the orders
of the government, right?
Copy !req
321. That's a question
for the Admiral.
Copy !req
322. This is a
question for me!
Copy !req
323. I have no intention of bowing to the orders
of Prince Lohengramm's government!
Copy !req
324. I'll only accept orders
from Admiral Yang Wenli.
Copy !req
325. It was only because the Admiral ordered
the ceasefire, that I reluctantly accepted.
Copy !req
326. Julian, I've been rude.
Copy !req
327. You've grown up.
Copy !req
328. I should take after you a bit,
to accept what I have to accept.
Copy !req
329. But there are things
one must not accept!
Copy !req
330. You're right
about that, too.
Copy !req
331. I see.
Copy !req
332. Prince Lohengramm is unharmed?
Copy !req
333. Fraulein Mariendorf...
Copy !req
334. your insight was more
valuable than a whole fleet.
Copy !req
335. I hope that you will continue to use that
insight on behalf of Prince Lohengramm.
Copy !req
336. Thank you.
Copy !req
337. It was all because of
help from both of you.
Copy !req
338. I hope that you will be Prince Lohengramm's
wings, and help take him forward.
Copy !req
339. In truth, I did not expect
things to go this smoothly.
Copy !req
340. My congratulations.
Copy !req
341. The men of the Alliance government
are unexpectedly spineless.
Copy !req
342. Really...
Copy !req
343. I was afraid the rulers
of the Alliance...
Copy !req
344. wouldn't care for their own
lives, and refuse our demands.
Copy !req
345. It's perhaps odd to say this,
but those men have no shame.
Copy !req
346. That a country that took a hundred
million people a hundred years to build...
Copy !req
347. could be destroyed by
one man in a single day...
Copy !req
348. So this is what they mean,
by the "death of a nation."
Copy !req
349. The Goldenbaum Dynasty, Galactic Empire,
Phezzan and now the Free Planets Alliance...
Copy !req
350. We've seen with our own eyes the destruction
of the three powers that shared the universe.
Copy !req
351. To borrow somebody else's words: the
historians of posterity must really envy us.
Copy !req
352. The ceasefire must be kept.
It's the government's orders.
Copy !req
353. But if you try to save your own skins by
making Admiral Merkatz a scapegoat...
Copy !req
354. I will not sit still!
Copy !req
355. Schneider!
Copy !req
356. No, Admiral Merkatz...
Copy !req
357. what the commander
says is right.
Copy !req
358. Admiral Merkatz must leave this fleet.
Copy !req
359. I cannot predict the future,
but as Commander Schneider says...
Copy !req
360. the Alliance government could
give you up to the Empire.
Copy !req
361. I'm a man of
the Alliance.
Copy !req
362. I must follow the foolish
orders of my government.
Copy !req
363. However, you have no
such responsibility.
Copy !req
364. It will be hard on me, if you
do not abandon this sinking ship.
Copy !req
365. Please take some of
the ships with you.
Copy !req
366. Naturally, you may take
fuel, supplies, and men.
Copy !req
367. Once defeated, one cannot guarantee that the
Alliance will be able to retain its military power.
Copy !req
368. Rather than let the Empire destroy
them, it'd be better to hide them.
Copy !req
369. It'll be difficult for
them to verify reports...
Copy !req
370. that they've been destroyed
in battle, or self-destructed.
Copy !req
371. Thank you for your
words, Admiral Yang.
Copy !req
372. But do you want me
to escape by myself...
Copy !req
373. and leave you to face
the consequences alone?
Copy !req
374. I knew you would say that.
Copy !req
375. But, Admiral Merkatz...
Copy !req
376. I'm not asking you to
go on a pleasure cruise.
Copy !req
377. I have something
rather absurd in mind.
Copy !req
378. For the sake of the future, please save
a remnant of the Alliance forces...
Copy !req
379. Indeed, I ask you
to save its best parts.
Copy !req
380. In other words, I am asking you to lead
a movement in Sherwood Forest...
Copy !req
381. like the legends
of Robin Hood of old.
Copy !req
382. I agree!
Copy !req
383. The word "free" in "Free Planets
Alliance" means self-determination.
Copy !req
384. I have no nostalgic love for an Alliance
that's become a slave to the Empire!
Copy !req
385. It has no charm, like a woman
who's lost her self-respect.
Copy !req
386. I request permission
to go with Admiral Merkatz.
Copy !req
387. If General Schenkopp will
allow it, I'll also go.
Copy !req
388. I'm the son
of an exiled man.
Copy !req
389. More than ever, I don't wish to
live under the Empire's domination.
Copy !req
390. Please allow me to
accompany Admiral Merkatz!
Copy !req
391. But... one day,
God willing...
Copy !req
392. we would like Admiral
Yang to lead us again.
Copy !req
393. As long as you live, the
Rosenritter will follow you!
Copy !req
394. This is the first step
towards military government...
Copy !req
395. Swearing allegiance not to
a government, but to a man.
Copy !req
396. What a nasty problem.
Copy !req
397. And now, what will you do,
Admiral Cazellnu?
Copy !req
398. I'll remain behind.
Copy !req
399. I should say,
I have to remain behind.
Copy !req
400. If a whole bunch of officers disappear, it'll
arouse suspicion within the Imperial forces.
Copy !req
401. I'll wait with Admiral Yang
to see what they do with us.
Copy !req
402. We'll do so, as well.
Copy !req
403. Fundamentally, what do you
think of this, Admiral Merkatz?
Copy !req
404. When I came here in exile, I already
placed my fate in your hands.
Copy !req
405. Since this is what you've decided,
I will not disappoint you.
Copy !req
406. Thank you.
I entrust it to you.
Copy !req
407. Excellent! Now that it's all decided,
we'll have to get ready soon!
Copy !req
408. If we putz around, we won't be able to hide when the other Imperial ships come knocking!
Copy !req
409. I'm sorry, Frederica.
Copy !req
410. If anyone else did this,
I'd think them a fool as well.
Copy !req
411. But this is the only way
I know how to live my life.
Copy !req
412. On top of that, I've complicated
things for comrades I care about.
Copy !req
413. I don't know whether what
you've done is right or wrong.
Copy !req
414. But I'm sure
of one thing.
Copy !req
415. I'm head over heels
in love with you.
Copy !req
416. So the victory I've achieved
is one which I've been given.
Copy !req
417. How shameful.
Copy !req
418. I've achieved a victory which was
not mine, but given over to me...
Copy !req
419. just like a beggar.
Copy !req
420. Universal Century 799, Imperial
Year 490, 2240 on May 5th...
Copy !req
421. after twelve days, the battle
at Vermilion came to an end.
Copy !req
422. The Imperial fleet
suffered 87.2% losses.
Copy !req
423. Casualties totalled 72.0%.
Copy !req
424. The Alliance forces
suffered 81.6% losses.
Copy !req
425. Casualties totalled 73.7%.
Copy !req
426. Both sides together lost
two and a half million men.
Copy !req
427. It was truly a
battle to the death.
