Galaxy Calendar Year 799 Empire Calendar Year 490, 20th January,
Reinhard army stationed themselves into Phezzan.
They received the news of victory from Admiral Reuentahl
that lserlohn Fortress has been reclaimed.
It seems like Yang Wenli has escaped safely again.
Could it be that Yang Wenli gave up the Fortress voluntarily?
The report Reuentahl gave me is purely objective.
He did not exagerate to his credit at all.
If it was other Admirals,
Would have exaggerated as if they have achieved a big credit.
Base on this,
Could it be that Yang may intend to march in,
and have a head-on fight.
There's this possibility. But before
Yang reach the battle field the Alliance would have perished.
Getting this news before setting off is indeed very encouraging.
Let's go out and take a look.
Lieutenant you better leave your gun behind,
In case of any checks you will be invite trouble.
You are right.
I will leave my gun with you.
Lohengramm will be here soon.
Going to walk pass here soon.
He will walk pass here soon.
Oh no, my gun...
Julian.
Terrorism and mysticism...
Cannot lead history towards a constructive direction.
You are right, but I am not a terrorist.
And in the future may not have a chance.
At least for now I want to take a look at Lohengramm personally.
Why is there so few police?
I heard that...
Lohengramm don't pay attention to guards.
Is that person at the side Chief Adviser Oberstein?
Is he Lohengramm?
Mr. Marina.
I am sorry to give you a shock.
How do you feel?
How do you feel...
to have a chance to see Lohengramm today.
He is beyond comparison.
You are right.
Although Lohengramm is now a graceful man,
Actually he is not born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
The great surname of Lohengramm
was conferred upon him later on.
Although he was a noble but was a typical pauper.
It was until later his father sold his daughter,
He becomes what he is.
Sold his daughter?
I heard it's the Emperor who brought her to the palace.
This is just a formality. It's actually it is selling daughter.
That's the reason why...
Lohengramm refuse to forgive his father even after his death
Whether it is his own will or not...
Lohengramm becomes successful because of his sister.
If this hasn't been the case,
It will be much later for him to obtain his dominant position.
But I heard when he was younger than me,
He has great achievements.
Didn't you have any to your credit?
Oh yes, another thing.
At your age, Magic Yang...
Was just an ordinary student in the Mlitary School.
As compared to him,
Don't you think you have an early start?
Mr Marina.
You highlighted Commander Yang Wenli
and Lohengramm's achievements.
Are you trying to instigate me?
If that is true you are wasting your time.
If it's opponent of a lower level maybe I will be tempted.
But by comparing me with Commander Yang and Lohengramm,
my basic confident level is lost.
This results in a negative effect.
Making me feel more inferior.
Do I sound like instigating you?
If that is the case I've made an indiscreet remark.
Actually, I just want to tell you,
In this world there is no born hero.
I am too much.
Oh yes may be I was too much too.
Since that's the case let's forget about what had been said.
I didn't expect the time flies.
I am sorry.
I am suppose to meet a guest now.
A guest?
Yes, to be frank,
This ship will not make money...
with just the few of you,
I know that. Who is the guest?
A priest from Earth Sect no, a Bishop. To be exact.
It's someone who don't have to work,
He talks to earn a living.
What's now? Lieutenant.
Do you want to take a walk with me?
To take a look at the guest taking the same ship.
To be frank I've never seen this guest.
Actually I'm a little afraid too.
Since you have found out Commander Yang Wenli
wants to make use of the victory over you
to save the Alliance,
Do you still insist on going to the frontline?
Hilda Mariendorf.
I'm determine in becoming a powerful chief,
To achieve this I've a rule for myself,
That is to go to the frontline.
Those noble who lost to me this is where our difference lies,
And it's why the soldiers support me.
You should understand this.
Please pardon me for being frank.
I feel that you should avoid unnecessary battle.
And return to Odin.
Phezzan Corridor has handed to Commander Mittermeier.
And lserlohn Corridor has Commander Reuentahl's supervision
I believe that the two of them will win the battle.
You need to do is stay at the rear waiting for their news of victory.
Hilda, I've decided to fight personally.
To him going to war is the only purpose of life.
To ban him from going to war,
Is like keeping a beast in a bird cage.
But if this is the case...
If I want this universe,
I don't want any barrier I want to get it personally.
Are you Earth Sect's Grand Bishop?
On the day Reinhard left Phezzan,
Following him was Wittenfeld and Fahrenheit.
The fleets of the two commander reached Phezzan too.
These two fleets intend to take a short break here,
And join in the battle against Alliance.
At the same time,
The assistant of the Senior Officer of the autonomous region...
Accredited to the Empire by Phezzan, Senior Affairs Officer
Baldic. Returned to the homeland too.
He was appointed by Lohengramm and assumes the post.
He betrayed Phezzan to the Empire, the traitor Baldic.
This fellow is a typical Phezzan citizen.
Don't we believe that country and family can be betrayed,
But you must get a good price for it.
May be you are right.
But while the seller is happy,
the betrayed may not be as happy.
It's true.
But from the surface,
Phezzan is still holding the representative rights in politic.
At least it is rule by our own people this can be accepted.
Although it is true,
But we always believe in walking with our own legs.
But Baldic is riding on the Empire's baby carriage.
Precisely.
Do you know where is Rubinsky?
Will he be hiding somewhere watching Empire captures Phezzan,
and Baldic becomes successful.
To escape form Phezzan the Bishop of Earth Sect that made you worry,
Seems to have found his savior.
Think carefully, to achieve this is not easy.
What do you want to say?
You are an excellent singer and dancer,
But not very good in acting this has not change.
Really?
Rupert, your beloved son till the day he was killed by you,
Believes that I am his partner.
He can only blame himself for his poor judgement.
He is absolutely not an observant spectator.
He is just placing his imagination on the stars
To indulge in self-delusion.
I better get myself insured.
Handing my fate to someone like you...
Is so insecure.
To be frank,
I don't want to be involved in the plan of you killing your own son.
Before I take action I hestitated for a long time.
I don't feel good when I think of it.
Right from the start, you chose me and not Rupert.
You have planned well.
So don't have to cry over the spilt milk.
This spilt milk is exactly the same as its producer.
He feels that he is the smartest person alive.
What a fool.
You are right.
That fellow's shortcoming is just like me.
If he could control his arrogance,
He wouldn't have die so young.
As a father you are responsible to teach your child.
This is true in normal situation.
But that does not mean he must imitate the father in all aspects.
If he wants to go into Arts or research,
I think I will definitely grant him his wish.
But in the end, you still put yourself first.
Thus you should be able to understand me.
Of course I understand you.
Actually not only me,
Human always understand lower class animal better.
Do you agreee?
No matter what,
I intend to cut off my connection with Earth Sect.
Regarding the things you do it is in accordance to my
objective, That's why I said.
You and your son are really alike.
It's such a grand sight at all time.
As compared to taking space craft or space shuttle to the
universe, Should have a difference.
Phezzan is the central for trading,
If there are frequent access of ships, it does not
only affect the economy but the atmoshperic layer too.
Regarding to this point it is more effective to use the track.
Do you think this is appropriate?
After Lohengramm set out the civilian air route will be open.
But only goes to Empire.
So I intend to take you pretending that we are going to Empire,
Alright, let's set out.
Do you recognize the customs officer?
Normally I will bribe them.
This matter I've notified them too.
I told him I intend to bring a group of people to Alliance.
But set your mind at rest do not panic,
If he dare to report they will regard him as the chief plotter.
What do you think? Warrant Officer.
Mr. Marina is the expert we can count on him.
If things still fail after much effort it's better to give up.
The area that can't be reached no matter how worry you are
Cannot be reached.
It's better to hand it to someone who wants to do it.
This is the best solution.
Very true.
This is the deck.
Let me introduce.
This is Mr. Wheelock.
He is standing in for Captain Konev to steer this ship.
Wheelock, he's the one I mentioned to you Second Lieutenat Mintz
How are you, Second Lieutenant.
Dare escaping from Empire's watch enter the territory of Alliance,
The courage and the innocent face is not compatible.
I have good impression of you.
I will try my best to see you back to Heinessen.
Although this ship is small it is as safe as a big one.
I am sorry there is only one small ship.
It's alright. I don't mind at all.
Actually,
the Phezzan people can help the Alliance
is not a bad thing after all.
Even the Alliance suffer a great loss, we can still fight if we...
combine Phezzan's economic strength with the remaining Alliance force.
We still have chance to fight Empire.
Do you agree?
Second Lieutenant Mintz, what do you think?
I shall name this plan the battle of anti-Lohengramm's unity
Any name will do,
Just don't make Alliance sound like we have lost the battle.
With Commander Yang Wenli we can set our mind at rest.
The Alliance will not be defeated by the Empire.
May be.
I will ensure to see you back before the celebration.
But you must invite me to the celebration.
Independent trading ship Belusca
on the 24th January, transporting 80 illegal passengers,
including Julian. Ieft Phezzan.
Accomplished nothing in Phezzan and we are leaving again.
30th Jan, Empire expeditionary army meet at Boerdo Star.
Most of the land force stayed in Phezzan...
Together with the two fleets of Wittenfeld and Fahrenheit.
There are 1 1 million 2700 thousand of military ships,
4 million 1900 rescue ships,
And 1660 million of arm forces.
The Alliance may think reaching Plato,
is the limit of our army.
I think they will try to counterattack us.
According to the information from Phezzan,
there is none living
from here to Rantemario.
To avoid bringing disaster to civilian,
The Alliance will choose this place as the main battle field.
Regarding this I am very confident.
I agree with you.
Although Alliance has keep up to now,
But to console the people,
They will be forced to stage an attack soon.
Once they attack, we will counterattack.
So I have decided,
to use the Amphisbaena strategy. The snake head which is
the first wave, will be command by me personally.
Marshal, you mean you want to lead personally?
This is too dangerous.
Although the military strength of Alliance is weak,
they may still try for a desperate try, l
propose for Commander Mittermeier to take the lead, and Marshal
to stay at the rear and wait for Commander Mittermeier's news.
This strategy has no rear, Muller.
There is only two snake head.
Mittermeier, you will take charge of the body.
If the Alliance tries to truncate our army,
They will attack the body first.
You are considered to be taking the lead. Understand this.
But...
I come here to win the battle Mittermeier.
If we want victory we have to fight.
How can a soldier hide at a safe place?
Second wave will be led by Steimetz Mittermeier's snake
Muller will lead the forth wave the fifth wave, which is
another snake head will be led by Wahlen.
Fahrenheit and Wittenfeld you'll be the reserve this time,
Depending on situation, be prepared to give support.
The key of this strategy is the connection between the fleets.
To ensure communication, we've triple protection.
To make provision we prepared a space shuttle to pass the
message. Any question?
If there is no question take a break now.
Dismiss.
Lohengramm is indeed a born warrior.
Victory is the only result that is significant to him.
He is a born ruler, no wonder
the way he harvest is extremely different from the others.
Marshal.
Marshal, pardon me for being rude.
But I have a few words to tell you personally.
Please win this battle and unify the universe.
What's your name?
Yes, my name is Emil.
Very nice name.
You want me to win?
Yes. Really?
Even if I leave no enemy for you in the future?
You won't blame me for that.
Emil, since you want me to win I will win.
Go home and tell your family,
It's you who make Lohengramm...
win the battle of Rantemario.
Understand?
Yes.
The entire army of Empire has gathered at Plato.
If they move on,
They will pass Rantemario...
and march into Heinessen.
From here to there are galaxy with residents.
Rantemario is no longer a boundary
Is considered as the last line to stop the enemy.
It's just a matter of time.
Actually the police form all places,
And all ships belongs to the defence organization...
has gathered for this battle.
Many rumours have been heard,
They suspect the Alliance will only protect capital Heinessen,
When it's necessary will abandon other galaxies.
How can this be possible?
In fact the government has announced if the galaxies are
attacked, they can announce the No Defence announcement
If this is not handle well,
These galaxies may leave Alliance and announce independence.
But, they may claim to be independent,
but still be dependent on Empire.
To avoid this situation Alliance is forced to fight now.
But the military strength of both sides is indeed a great disparity.
If not for the great lost at Amlitzer, this will not happen.
But come to think of it,
It has been two years since we've a war with the Empire.
I am from the battle of Astate.
For this period of time,
it is all thanks to Commander Yang who help to guard lserlohn.
Oh yes, last year you were with Commander Yang
and assisted in lserlohn together.
Yes.
I think by now Commander Yang have left lserlohn Fortress.
On the 18th Jan, he gave up the Fort.
He arranged for some civilians to take refuge at other galaxies.
I think around 15th Feb,
He will be able to reach Rantemario.
15 days more to reach?
I sound contradicting.
I feel that the actual battle should start the later the better.
I think the enemy's motor-driven troops after breaking through
Iserlohn, should have follow closely behind the Yang
Wenli's fleet. After the enemy assembled,
The difference between our military strength will be greater.
So we should assemble first,
before the enemy meets.
It will be ideal before the enemy assemble,
Declare the war.
If it's not handled well,
While we are at Reinhard fighting the enemy,
The enemy's motor-driven troops will take the chance to attack
Heinessen. To be cautious,
we should let the people of Heinessen evacuate to the
mountainous area. The time is tight.
Even the situation is not favoring us, we've to fight.
The Alliance's fleet is led by Chief Commander Bucock.
There is 3 million 2900 ships, 520 million 6000 soldiers.
The difference between Alliance and Empire is 3:1
Even the common soldiers of Empire is full of fighting spirit.
While the Alliance is made up of a disorderly crowd.
There are two things that I am very puzzled.
What are they?
One of them is the Grand Bishop.
Don't blame me for being nosey.
Don't you think we should get him a doctor?
He is not even eating simply drinking and vomited blood.
Looking at him now. It is terrifying.
He seems to be on drugs.
I have noticed that too.
But he has nothing to say.
Alright I will discuss with the crew doctor.
What's the next one?
I shouldn't meddle in this matter,
I am worry about Empire's movement.
I think it won't take long
They will show their true color of a military ruler.
They may even ban the civilian ships.
You can set your mind at rest.
Empire has appointed Baldic to be the Acting Governor,
I don't think he will use harsh laws to irritate the businessmen.
Is that so?
Moreover the oratically,
It is not possible for them to ban all ships.
Even if Empire is strong Military-wise,
It pales into insignificance.
to the population and size of the economic activities in Phezzan.
If he dares act rashly and start banning,
It causes a stop in transportation,
By then not only the people will retailiate,
Their own supply and transportation will be affected.
He will not be that silly.
But it may not be the case.
This Baldic.
He allows Phezzan citizen to board the patrol ship of Empire,
It's like wanting the Phezzan citizen to help Empire to do the
patroling. He is really hateful.
Lieutenant, your supervisor is captured too.
Colonel?
There are 30 ships detained.
And arrested more than 200 illegal passengers.
It is no longer safe here.
So, I am too optimistic.
The history tells us,
Those who spy on the people,
as compared to the soldiers...
are more enthusiastic and more capable.
You are already can't possibly turn back now.
But with the help of Phezzan citizen,
We can't conceal our identities anymore.
These fake passes may not be useful too.
The Empire's destroyer is getting close.
I am really sorry that this has happened.
I think I am dead this time.
Wait there is still chance to turn the table.
What's your plan?
How did Commander Yang conquer lserlohn Fortress?
Suspicious civilian ship.
Wait.
Received signal from them.
There are a few man trying to hijack a civilian ship.
They are subdued after a fight.
They request to hand over the criminal.
Let's take a look at the screen first. Yes.
We steer towards this direction.
Because we are threatened.
They claimed to bomb the ship.
These fellow looks like the officers and soldiers of Alliance.
We just had a hard time subduing them.
Please send someone over to arrest them.
Luckily the bomb they brought are fake ones.
These dangerous people we hope to hand over soon.
If we didn't reach our destination,
Just the wastage of time is more than enough.
Which is the officer who tried to hijack the ship?
It is unexpected.
He is still a child.
Could it be there is no one left in the Alliance?
We are tricked.
Don't be too happy yet.
Commodore, take the captain as hostage bring him to deck.
Mr. Marina, do as we said.
Let all the people sit over here.
Must we do this?
I wonder what the captain will say.
Stop the ship immediately or we will attack.
We shall do this.
Even if there are more of the Empire's army
We should be able to get by.
Must we do this?
Although this ship is small it is a good ship.
Stop signing.
The Alliance will compensate you a new one.
Am I right? Second Lieutenat.
There's no other choice I am sorry.
I am going to fire.
It is my first time.
Fire.
Successful.
But...
Oh yes. What are we going to do with those fellow?
I don't care about the Empire,
Those traitors from Phezzan hand them to us.
What do you think? After we enter
into Alliance territory we've to take a space shuttle,
Then we shall kill them.
No.
Don't forget torturing is not allowed on board.
You win.
Oh yes, this ship,
Is an exchange by sacrificing Belusca,
So this ship should belongs to me.
Do you agree? Lieutenat.
This is a destroyer.
It doesn't matter.
After removing the weapons the net weight should be enough.
Alright, it's a deal.
This ship is not bad, it is a good ship.
