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. Flagship Beowulf
Copy !req
8. Ships approaching from dead ahead.
Copy !req
9. Approximately 700 ships.
Copy !req
10. Heave to!
Copy !req
11. If you don't obey,
we'll open fire!
Copy !req
12. Wait, those
are our ships!
Copy !req
13. Maximum magnification!
Copy !req
14. What the hell...?
Copy !req
15. I see.
So Kempf's dead.
Copy !req
16. You should continue to the rear
and report to Prince Lohengramm.
Copy !req
17. Leave it to us to
avenge Kempf's death.
Copy !req
18. Advance, full speed ahead.
Copy !req
19. We'll counterattack the enemy
battle group that came after Muller.
Copy !req
20. Launch a surprise attack, and then
withdraw when the time is right.
Copy !req
21. Fighting any further than
that is pointless right now.
Copy !req
22. Bayerlein! Buro!
Dreusen! Zinser!
Copy !req
23. Follow my usual
procedures, understood?
Copy !req
24. Sir!
Copy !req
25. Flagship Tristan
Copy !req
26. I see, Kempf's dead.
Copy !req
27. Flagship Mauria
Copy !req
28. What's wrong? Have you
found the missing enemy yet?
Copy !req
29. Sir, I have contact again.
On display at maximum magnification.
Copy !req
30. Good! This time, don't let
them out of your sight!
Copy !req
31. Don't be defeated by amateurs.
Copy !req
32. Yeah!
Copy !req
33. Don't be intimidated by that
lazy bunch in Yang's fleet!
Copy !req
34. Let's show them how Alliance
soldiers ought to fight!
Copy !req
35. It's the enemy!
Copy !req
36. Another fleet is
directly overhead!
Copy !req
37. What?
Copy !req
38. This is revenge
for Kempf!
Copy !req
39. Annihilate them to
the last ship!
Copy !req
40. The enemy fleet in front of
us has turned to fight!
Copy !req
41. That... that's not the remnants
of the fleet we defeated!
Copy !req
42. It's a fresh fleet!
Copy !req
43. What a mess!
Copy !req
44. We've been tricked!
Copy !req
45. Go down!
Retreat straight down!
Copy !req
46. Volley with the main guns,
three times in sequence.
Copy !req
47. Are these really
Yang Wenli's men?
Copy !req
48. They weren't like this
when we fought at Amlitzer!
Copy !req
49. Enemy fleet destroyed.
Copy !req
50. A new enemy
fleet dead ahead.
Copy !req
51. Approximately 10,000 ships
Copy !req
52. Did you hear
that, Reuental?
Copy !req
53. It seems Yang Wenli
himself has arrived.
Copy !req
54. What do you want
to do, stay and fight?
Copy !req
55. Well, yes. But a battle
would be meaningless now.
Copy !req
56. We'll withdraw from here.
Copy !req
57. This small victory isn't enough to
atone for Kempf and Muller's defeat.
Copy !req
58. It's best not
to be greedy.
Copy !req
59. Look at it
this way...
Copy !req
60. We moved a fortress and our fleet
across several thousand light years...
Copy !req
61. and it's all
come to nothing.
Copy !req
62. Only Yang Wenli made
a name for himself.
Copy !req
63. Not much
we can do.
Copy !req
64. Well, fighting a hundred battles doesn't
mean winning a hundred victories.
Copy !req
65. That's what
Prince Lohengramm says.
Copy !req
66. Some other time, either you or
I will take Yang Wenli's head.
Copy !req
67. Muller wants it, too.
Copy !req
68. Then there'll be fierce
competition for it.
Copy !req
69. Pay attention, Julian.
Copy !req
70. That is the way a great
commander fights a battle.
Copy !req
71. They have a clear objective,
and once they've accomplished it...
Copy !req
72. they leave without
getting entangled.
Copy !req
73. Right.
Copy !req
74. Anyway, what a wealth of talent
Prince Lohengramm has under his wing.
Copy !req
75. How would this have gone if
Siegfried Kircheis were still alive?
Copy !req
76. Lieutenant, please pass the order
for the whole fleet to return to base.
Copy !req
77. And now, Julian...
Copy !req
78. I haven't tasted that
tea of yours in a long time.
Copy !req
79. Will you make
some for me?
Copy !req
80. Of course.
Copy !req
81. Julian was
important to us.
Copy !req
82. He was the one who saw through
the Imperial Fleet's strategy.
Copy !req
83. Julian, huh?
Copy !req
84. There's something you should know.
I don't want him to become a soldier.
Copy !req
85. I wish I could
order him to quit.
Copy !req
86. That sounds contrary to
the spirit of democracy.
Copy !req
87. Planet Phezzan
Copy !req
88. The Alliance is now spending more than
30% of its GNP on military expenses.
Copy !req
89. Theoretically, the maximum military
expense is 18% in peace time.
Copy !req
90. If they continue like this, their
economy will go bankrupt before long.
Copy !req
91. When that happens, we on Phezzan can
take complete control of the Alliance.
Copy !req
92. Then, once we've made the Empire
acknowledge our rights and interest...
Copy !req
93. the galaxy will actually
be unified under Phezzan's rule.
Copy !req
94. To achieve this, we should put
the plan we discussed into action.
Copy !req
95. Yes, sir. I'll have
them depart at once.
Copy !req
96. By the way...
Copy !req
97. what will we do about the Empire's Director
of Science and Technology, Admiral Schaft?
Copy !req
98. Give me your opinion on what
you think we should do with him.
Copy !req
99. We have no further
use for him.
Copy !req
100. Because his demands
on us keep increasing...
Copy !req
101. I think it's time
to cut him loose.
Copy !req
102. I'll make sure the Empire's Department
of Justice obtains those documents.
Copy !req
103. In fact, I've already
had them written.
Copy !req
104. With Your Excellency's
permission, I'll see to it.
Copy !req
105. Very well,
take care of it.
Copy !req
106. If you don't flush the garbage
out quickly, it clogs the sewers.
Copy !req
107. Very good, sir.
Copy !req
108. Good day.
Copy !req
109. You're welcome to
take tomorrow off.
Copy !req
110. I believe it's the anniversary
of your mother's death.
Copy !req
111. Well...
Copy !req
112. I didn't expect Your Excellency to be
so concerned with private affairs.
Copy !req
113. It's only natural...
Copy !req
114. considering who provided
half your bloodline.
Copy !req
115. You knew?
Copy !req
116. I think I did your
mother an injustice.
Copy !req
117. Were you concerned
about it?
Copy !req
118. Yes, all along.
Copy !req
119. If she heard that,
Mother would rejoice in Heaven.
Copy !req
120. But really, there was nothing
for you to worry about.
Copy !req
121. For the daughter of a poor family that was
hard pressed to put food on the table...
Copy !req
122. or the daughter of a family that owned a
substantial percentage of the whole universe?
Copy !req
123. In your place...
Copy !req
124. Yes, in your place, I would
have made the same choice.
Copy !req
125. So, even though I was
fresh out of college...
Copy !req
126. you appointed me to the
important post of Counselor.
Copy !req
127. Was that just out
of parental affection?
Copy !req
128. Is that what
you think?
Copy !req
129. I'd hate to
believe that.
Copy !req
130. I have some pride
in my abilities.
Copy !req
131. I prefer to believe
that's why you hired me.
Copy !req
132. At heart,
you take after me...
Copy !req
133. even if you get your
looks from your mother.
Copy !req
134. Thank you.
Copy !req
135. The position of leader
of Phezzan isn't hereditary.
Copy !req
136. To become my successor,
you don't need a bloodline...
Copy !req
137. just real skills and charisma.
Copy !req
138. The trick is to take the
time to nurture that.
Copy !req
139. I'll take your
words to heart.
Copy !req
140. Real skills and charisma?
Copy !req
141. In order to get
your hands on it...
Copy !req
142. you did all kinds of underhanded
things, didn't you, Landesherr?
Copy !req
143. You didn't have the patience to nourish
anything, but you advise me to.
Copy !req
144. A contradiction.
Copy !req
145. Do not forget,
I am your son.
Copy !req
146. Rupert does take after me...
Copy !req
147. Planet Odin
Copy !req
148. Whether they steal it or build it...
Copy !req
149. the first one there
deserves the prize.
Copy !req
150. That's only natural.
Copy !req
151. But for those who have come
to power, wealth, and glory...
Copy !req
152. not by their own strength and effort,
but simply because of inheritance...
Copy !req
153. What right do they
have to complain?
Copy !req
154. I think the very existence of such
blood lineage dynasties is disgusting.
Copy !req
155. Power is the property
of one generation.
Copy !req
156. It shouldn't be transferred.
It should be seized.
Copy !req
157. So, Your Excellency, you won't pass on your
own position and power to your children?
Copy !req
158. Children?
My children, huh?
Copy !req
159. The man who succeeds me will have
talent equal to or greater than my own.
Copy !req
160. And, that doesn't have
to be only after I'm dead.
Copy !req
161. Anyone who thinks they can take it by
stabbing me in the back is welcome to try.
Copy !req
162. However, what do you think will
happen to them if they fail?
Copy !req
163. I'll let that
give them pause.
Copy !req
164. Who is it?
Copy !req
165. Oberstein, Your Excellency.
Copy !req
166. Come in.
Copy !req
167. Sorry to interrupt
your meal.
Copy !req
168. Reuental and Mittermeyer
have sent in their report.
Copy !req
169. It doesn't sound
like good news.
Copy !req
170. Geiersburg Fortress was destroyed.
Copy !req
171. Admiral Kempf shared its fate.
Copy !req
172. Nearly 15,000 ships were
destroyed or damaged.
Copy !req
173. Over 1,800,000 troops
are dead or wounded.
Copy !req
174. You mean he lost over
90% of his forces?
Copy !req
175. Approximately 700
vessels returned.
Copy !req
176. They're on their way back,
under Admiral Muller's command.
Copy !req
177. Lord Reinhard...
Copy !req
178. Yes, that's right.
Copy !req
179. Men like Muller
are hard to find.
Copy !req
180. I should stop doing things like
risking his life in useless battles.
Copy !req
181. That will be alright,
won't it, Kircheis.
Copy !req
182. Although Your Excellency gave me great
responsibility, I failed to carry out my duty.
Copy !req
183. I was unable to save
our leader, Admiral Kempf.
Copy !req
184. I lost many soldiers,
and let the enemy triumph.
Copy !req
185. For these failures,
I deserved to die...
Copy !req
186. But instead, I have
returned home in disgrace...
Copy !req
187. to inform Your Excellency of the
circumstances, and await your judgment.
Copy !req
188. All the responsibility for
losing the battle is mine.
Copy !req
189. I beg you, be lenient
with my subordinates.
Copy !req
190. It is not your
responsibility.
Copy !req
191. You should atone for losing one battle
by being victorious the next time.
Copy !req
192. You did well to return.
Copy !req
193. Your Excellency...
Copy !req
194. I've already lost
Admiral Kempf.
Copy !req
195. I can't lose you, too.
Copy !req
196. Rest until you've
recuperated from your wounds.
Copy !req
197. As soon as you're well,
I'll order you back to active duty.
Copy !req
198. Muller...!
Copy !req
199. Kissling, take him
to the hospital.
Copy !req
200. After that, Kempf is to be promoted
to the rank of High Admiral.
Copy !req
201. Incidentally, Schaft...
Copy !req
202. Sir?
Copy !req
203. I'd like to
hear your explanation.
Copy !req
204. If I may say so,
my plan was perfect.
Copy !req
205. The operation's failure is the responsibility
of the man who was appointed to command it.
Copy !req
206. Who asked you to assign
blame for the lost battle?
Copy !req
207. Chief of Military Police...
Copy !req
208. come forward and show
this man his guilt.
Copy !req
209. Sir!
Copy !req
210. Admiral Schaft,
you're under arrest.
Copy !req
211. You are charged with corruption,
embezzling public funds...
Copy !req
212. tax evasion,
breach of trust...
Copy !req
213. and betraying
military secrets.
Copy !req
214. On what evidence...?
Copy !req
215. Take him away!
Copy !req
216. Trash!
Copy !req
217. Kesler...
Copy !req
218. increase the surveillance of the
Phezzan Ambassador's Office.
Copy !req
219. I don't care
if they notice.
Copy !req
220. That might even serve
to restrain them.
Copy !req
221. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
222. Mecklinger...
Copy !req
223. there's something
I must ask you to do.
Copy !req
224. Mother!
Mother, don't cry!
Copy !req
225. I'll avenge Father!
Copy !req
226. I'll dedicate myself to
getting that Yang guy!
Copy !req
227. I'll get him!
Copy !req
228. Fraulein Mariendorf...
Copy !req
229. Chief of Staff...
Copy !req
230. what is it?
Copy !req
231. After that incident, did you urge
His Excellency to be lenient with Muller?
Copy !req
232. No, that was something His
Excellency decided for himself.
Copy !req
233. I didn't say
anything to him.
Copy !req
234. Besides...
Copy !req
235. even if I had made a suggestion,
he's not an easy man to persuade, right?
Copy !req
236. Is that so?
Copy !req
237. Yes, it is.
Copy !req
238. But if anyone
suggested it, it was him.
Copy !req
239. Admiral Kircheis is the
only one he listens to.
Copy !req
240. Fraulein, I didn't know
you were such a romantic.
Copy !req
241. Well, excuse me.
Copy !req
242. Does the Chief of Staff
see Prince Lohengramm...
Copy !req
243. as nothing more than a tool
for his own Machiavellian plots?
Copy !req
244. As it is, this might end up destroying
whatever youthful idealism he has left.
Copy !req
245. And that will only increase the danger of
him turning into a second Rudolf the Great.
Copy !req
246. I must fight to keep
that from happening.
Copy !req
247. Hilda, do you have
a chance of winning?
Copy !req
248. If all it took to win was wanting it,
no one would have to work hard.
Copy !req
249. I know...
Copy !req
250. I'll find an excuse to
meet with his older sister.
Copy !req
251. If only Admiral Kircheis
were still alive...
Copy !req
252. there'd be no need
for me to meddle.
Copy !req
253. Kempf's funeral will
have full military honors.
Copy !req
254. Unprecedented treatment for
someone who died in a losing battle.
Copy !req
255. Muller wasn't
punished, either.
Copy !req
256. Prince Lohengramm's as merciful
as I've come to expect him to be.
Copy !req
257. Is he?
Copy !req
258. Kempf was of
no further use.
Copy !req
259. To Prince Lohengramm, aren't all
subordinates, except Siegfried Kircheis...
Copy !req
260. just convenient,
disposable tools?
Copy !req
261. Lately, that's what
I've been thinking.
Copy !req
262. Now wait. The Prince
mourned Kempf's death!
Copy !req
263. There, you see, Mittermeyer.
Copy !req
264. Look at it this way:
Copy !req
265. Kempf is dead.
Copy !req
266. If you give tears and glory
to the dead, it ends there.
Copy !req
267. But does he give anything substantial
to the living - power or wealth?
Copy !req
268. I don't think that
man is capable of it.
Copy !req
269. So you say now.
Copy !req
270. But last autumn, when Siegfried Kircheis died
and the Prince was beside himself with grief...
Copy !req
271. weren't you the one who said we
must get the Prince's spirits to rally?
Copy !req
272. Didn't you mean
what you said?
Copy !req
273. I meant what
I said - back then.
Copy !req
274. But I haven't come this far by being
right every time since I was born.
Copy !req
275. We haven't reached that point yet, but the
time may come when I'll regret my choice.
Copy !req
276. I'll pretend
I didn't hear that.
Copy !req
277. You should watch
what you say.
Copy !req
278. If that reached Oberstein's ears,
you might become the subject of a purge.
Copy !req
279. Prince Lohengramm is the
hero of our generation.
Copy !req
280. If we just move
as he wishes...
Copy !req
281. as if we were his arms and legs,
we'll get our due reward.
Copy !req
282. That's what I think.
Copy !req
283. Still, if I had it
to do over again...
Copy !req
284. could I take
the universe?
Copy !req
285. Must a new age
bring about new anxiety?
Copy !req
286. If Siegfried Kircheis were alive,
it wouldn't be like this.
Copy !req
287. Does our enemy
have any concerns?
Copy !req
288. What do you suppose
Yang Wenli is doing now?
Copy !req
289. Perhaps dancing with a
beautiful girl at a victory party.
Copy !req
290. I'll make you
some hot punch.
Copy !req
291. You put honey and lemon in mulled wine,
and mix it with hot water.
Copy !req
292. It's the best
thing for a cold.
Copy !req
293. Leave out the honey,
lemon, and hot water.
Copy !req
294. No way.
Copy !req
295. What difference
would it make?
Copy !req
296. Well, I could leave out the wine...
Copy !req
297. When you first came to my house
4 years ago, you were more obedient.
Copy !req
298. Yes, and the reason I've become like
this is because of what happened after.
Copy !req
299. Yeah, as
I suspected.
Copy !req
300. That's because there's no one
around to be a good influence.
Copy !req
301. Cazellnu?
Or Schenkopp?
Copy !req
302. Or maybe I have
Poplan to thank!
Copy !req
303. Aren't you
forgetting someone?
Copy !req
304. Attenborough?
Copy !req
305. Somebody closer.
The most responsible person.
Copy !req
306. I guess I wasn't
much good for you.
Copy !req
307. I was forced to work against my will,
with no woman in my life...
Copy !req
308. And if I even try to take
a drink, I get scolded.
Copy !req
309. Please don't get moody
just because of a cold.
Copy !req
310. You're a good boy.
Copy !req
311. Admiral Yang.
Copy !req
312. What is it?
Copy !req
313. I want to formally
enlist as a soldier.
Copy !req
314. Will you give me
your permission?
Copy !req
315. If you tell me "no,"
for any reason, I'll give it up.
Copy !req
316. Do you want to become
one, no matter what?
Copy !req
317. Yes. I want to be a soldier
who protects freedom and equality.
Copy !req
318. Not a soldier who starts
invasions or oppresses people...
Copy !req
319. but a soldier who protects
the rights of the people.
Copy !req
320. You said you'd give it up...
What else would you do?
Copy !req
321. I don't know.
Copy !req
322. I guess I'd become whatever
you told me to be.
Copy !req
323. So you never considered the
possibility that I'd say, "no."
Copy !req
324. It's not that...
Copy !req
325. Don't take an age gap
of 15 years lightly.
Copy !req
326. I have that
advantage over you.
Copy !req
327. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
328. When you look at me like
that, how can I say "no?"
Copy !req
329. All right. In your case, you
won't become a problem soldier...
Copy !req
330. So do as you like.
Copy !req
331. Thank you! Thank you
very much, Admiral!
Copy !req
332. But do you really want to be a soldier so much?
Copy !req
333. Look, Julian, I don't
usually dwell on this...
Copy !req
334. But if you're really going to be a soldier,
there's something I want you to remember.
Copy !req
335. An army is a tool for violence,
and there are two kinds of violence.
Copy !req
336. Good violence
and bad violence?
Copy !req
337. No, not quite.
Copy !req
338. Violence to control and oppress,
and violence as a means of liberation.
Copy !req
339. You know what we
call a national army...
Copy !req
340. is fundamentally
the former example.
Copy !req
341. It's a pity,
but history doesn't lie.
Copy !req
342. When those in power
confront popular opposition...
Copy !req
343. there aren't many examples of
the army siding with the people.
Copy !req
344. Far from it, in the past,
in country after country...
Copy !req
345. the army itself evolved
into a power structure...
Copy !req
346. and came to control
the people with violence.
Copy !req
347. Just last year, there were those
who tried to do that here, but failed.
Copy !req
348. But, Admiral, you're a soldier yourself,
but you opposed that, right?
Copy !req
349. I want to be
a soldier like you...
Copy !req
350. even if that's an
impossible standard to meet.
Copy !req
351. Hey, hey,
none of that.
Copy !req
352. You know perfectly well that
I never wanted to become a soldier.
Copy !req
353. A historian, right?
Copy !req
354. That's right.
Copy !req
355. "The pen is mightier
than the sword!"
Copy !req
356. In human affairs, the truth is hard to find,
which is why that expression is true.
Copy !req
357. We couldn't topple Rudolf
the Great with the sword...
Copy !req
358. but we exposed his crimes
against human society.
Copy !req
359. That is the
power of the pen.
Copy !req
360. The pen can impeach the
dictator of a hundred years ago...
Copy !req
361. or the tyrant of
a thousand years ago.
Copy !req
362. Yes, but in the end, doesn't
that just explain the past?
Copy !req
363. The past?
Copy !req
364. Listen, Julian...
Copy !req
365. for as long as human history goes on,
the past will continue to accumulate.
Copy !req
366. History isn't just
records of the past.
Copy !req
367. It's also proof that civilization has
continued to advance to the present.
Copy !req
368. Our present civilization
is the result of our past.
Copy !req
369. Understand?
Copy !req
370. Yes.
Copy !req
371. In the long
flow of time...
Copy !req
372. living things know nothing of their ancestors,
except for the genes they've inherited.
Copy !req
373. Only mankind
has history.
Copy !req
374. Having a history differentiates
mankind from all other living species.
Copy !req
375. That's why I wanted
to be a historian.
Copy !req
376. The only reason I'm in this sad state
is that I made the wrong first move.
Copy !req
377. But if it weren't for people making history,
there'd be nothing for historians to study.
Copy !req
378. Julian, would you make me
another cup of hot wine...
Copy !req
379. I mean,
more hot punch.
Copy !req
380. It was good.
Copy !req
381. Really good.
Copy !req
382. Sure, right away.
Copy !req
383. It seems few things work
out the way I plan them...
Copy !req
384. either in my own
life, or in others.
Copy !req
385. Essentially, for one reason or another,
all of you would like to make Yang Wenli retire.
Copy !req
386. However, that could cause you
difficulties if, after he retired...
Copy !req
387. he embarked on a career in
politics and challenged your power.
Copy !req
388. Isn't that the problem?
Copy !req
389. It's nothing personal
against Admiral Yang.
Copy !req
390. We just want to keep military
officers from entering politics.
Copy !req
391. In that case, you just
need to pass a law.
Copy !req
392. Isn't that the point
of having power?
Copy !req
393. Everybody has to obey the laws and
regulations once you've passed them.
Copy !req
394. If there's something you want
that you can't buy with money...
Copy !req
395. you can always use the money
to buy the power to take it.
Copy !req
396. Am I wrong?
Copy !req
397. As you say.
Copy !req
398. Damn!
Copy !req
399. Boris Konev
Copy !req
400. When I think about
the things he makes me do.
Copy !req
401. Meetings to discuss
military spending kickbacks...
Copy !req
402. and to
drag Yang down...
Copy !req
403. I hate to work
for the government.
Copy !req
404. Whether my heart has wings...
Copy !req
405. To escape the grasp of gravity...
Copy !req
406. To be able to soar
in the great skies...
Copy !req
407. The mother planet, forsaken...
Copy !req
408. Baron Heinrich von Kunmel
Copy !req
409. Although green in former days...
Copy !req
410. The bird's song now extinct...
Copy !req
411. That's enough!
Leave me!
Copy !req
412. I haven't got long.
Copy !req
413. Why was I ever born?
Copy !req
414. Without producing anything, without
creating a legacy from my life.
Copy !req
415. Will I just disappear
like this, in vain?
Copy !req
416. No! I won't
die like this!
Copy !req
417. I can't die without
leaving my mark on history!
Copy !req
418. Shall we go...
Copy !req
419. Captain?
Copy !req
420. Space Era 798...
Copy !req
421. Imperial Year 489.
Copy !req
422. The year was
barely half over.
Copy !req
423. The incident that would shock both the
Galactic Empire and the Free Planets Alliance...
Copy !req
424. was still
one month away.
