My heart is here waiting for you.
Galaxy Calendar Year 799 Empire Calendar Year 490, April 6
Yang was informed that the Empire's fleets were disperse to
various places, Navigate the fleet to Galaxy Gandarwa.
That man is scary.
Marshal?
Not only the commanders,
Even Reinhard is moving towards Gandarwa...
directing to Heinessen.
I intend to announce it when the enemy disperse.
But if we carry on waiting,
Reinhard will reach Heinessen.
So stop him,
Must within the short time
When the fleets are unable to turn back,
Start attacking them.
Is this what you mean?
We have to make arrangement beforehand.
We must defeat Reinhard within the limited time.
Before his troops return,
He has to continue to maintain the frontline.
It may turn out to be a battle between the two fleets.
I can't even promise that I've half a chance of winning.
Who can replace me?
May I come in?
Julian, my door is always open for you.
Come in.
I shall take my leave then.
Anything else?
No, thank you.
Take a seat.
Am I disturbing you?
Don't say nonsense.
Alright, why are you here?
Regarding Reinhard's plan of dispersing the army,
What are your views?
How should I say this?
I shall tell you how I feel.
I think this is obviously a trap.
We will fall into their trap if we go.
What trap?
When we are close to their base,
They will wait for the chance to turn back,
Force us into an foolproof net,
And wipe us out.
This is the trap.
Of course you can tell.
Even I can tell.
But, do you still want to jump into this trap?
Oh my goodness. Normally it's the youth that is brash.
And the older one who will suppress it.
But our situation, it is just the opposite.
Do you think I will lose to Reinhard?
Marshal, you use such means to hold me back. That is despicable.
I'm sorry, your words make sense.
This is indeed despicable.
No, it's my fault,
I shouldn't say such things.
I am really sorry.
Julian.
I always believe Never fight a doubtful battle,
This is my motto.
This time I am not going against this motto now.
You mean you are confident?
Frankly, it is not too much.
But it's our only chance.
Since Reinhard has see through my intention,
And is deliberately trying to lure me out,
It means...
he has accepted my challenge.
You know that he is honorable,
and would like to fight with him openly, right?
No, Julian, I'm not that sentimental.
What I am thinking now is...
how to make use of Reinhard's sentiments and pride to beat him.
Just like that,
Actually I would like to have a easy victory.
But this is the easiest way.
No matter what... Don't push yourself too hard.
Don't worry,
I don't like working too hard anyway.
Thank you for your concern.
And also...
No, nothing.
So I take a move first.
Alright.
Starzone Lycus Alliance's Resupply base.
1 1th April
Yang's fleet at Lycus Lycus Resupply base
Preparing for the replenishment before setting out.
Announcement of the Commander.
You can move freely until 2400 today.
Although it's only a half day rest,
everyone let your hair down!
Enjoy yourselves.
In this planet of rocks, what can we do in our free time?
Forget it, I think I've better go and find a partner for tonight.
What do you intend to do?
Go to the room and sleep.
You make such a boring thing sounds grand.
What is boring?
If that is a joke. It's not funny.
It will be boring if that is true.
That's because you like to joke.
You can't live with jokes only,
But it will meaningless without jokes.
Your existence is already a big joke.
Your sarcasm is getting better and better.
Mr. Konev.
Thank you.
It's the lonely and unwanted man feeling jealous,
Don't take it to heart, Mr. Poplan.
Oh, Major.
Julian, what are you doing before 12?
Getting some food in the canteen, I guess. And you?
Commander Yang ask me to go over. I wonder what happen?
Lieutenant. Yes.
Major.
Yes.
Miss Greenhill.
Frederica.
Yes.
Eleven years...
I felt that the eleven years finally found me.
Marshal, when you call me Frederica...
do you remember what happen eleven years ago.
Thank you, Miss Greenhill.
Call me Frederica will do.
Lieutenant.
Frederica...
Frederica, after this war is over...
I am older than you by seven years,
How should I put it?
I am full of shortcomings,
Recalling the past,
I doubt I've the rights to mention this.
I feel that I am taking advantage of my position,
And the battle will begin soon...
Bringing this up to you is inappropriate,
But, I'll regret it,
if I did not tell you this.
It's troublesome.
Right from the start, I've been talking about myself.
In short, in short...
I would like you to marry me.
With our pension added together,
Our lives should not be a problem till old age.
And,
My parents' age are 8 years apart.
I should have told you about this earlier,
And...I feel that...
Why? Is there anything wrong?
Your answer.
I haven't hear your answer.
What do you think?
Yes, Marshal.
Yes.
Thank you.
How should I put it?
This...
What should I say?
How should I put it?
Really.
This Yang. He finally brace up his courage.
Basically this is a good thing.
Let's drink to celebrate.
Excuse me, I finish up first.
You said basically this is a good thing,
What do you mean?
It's a good thing to Yang Wenli.
Because that fellow finally gets a wife.
And she's a perfect choice.
To Lt. Greenhill.
Though it seems like she is looking for trouble...
it is a good thing as she gets to marry the person she likes.
However, while a funeral can be done alone,
A marriage will need two person.
Then basically means?
It's the same theory as
drinking before you 'cheers'.
Actually you admire Miss Greenhill, right?
I am blessing them, really.
I like the both of them.
This is an inevitable outcome, I mean nothing else.
I know, let's drink.
Lighter.
Julian.
I know by saying so is a little busybody.
People's feelings cannot be explained by any formula.
This appeals not only to love.
The way you feel towards someone,
Might make you lose disregard the others.
This is not new.
Emotions has no reason.
It is like this naturally.
Frankly, I am worry that you will become like this.
You are very smart, kind and understanding,
But some people when encounter this will react abnormally.
Oh yes, I understand.
I am glad that you understand.
Even if it is only in your head...
I wonder how would they address each other after marriage?
Will they still address each other Marshal and Lieutenant?
No, I don't think so.
But, this is hard to say.
When I just got married my wife called me Lt. Schenkopp.
Whenever she called me Lieutenant, I can't help but to salute.
But back to the point, this will only happen if are alive
After their marriage what are you plans?
You can move to my house.
Frankly, I don't want to disturb their marriage life.
How should I put it?
I don't want to be a light bulb.
I don't do such things.
Just joking.
As I want to go to a place,
So I think I will go traveling.
Oh? Where are you going?
Earth.
Earth?
Are you trying to confirm what the Grand Bishop said?
Yes, it's for that reason.
But this will only happen after the wedding.
Best wishes to you.
Planet Vermillion
What an unreliable sun.
If we don't stop Reinhard here,
We won't have any more chance.
Divide the 1250 billion cube light second of Vermillion
Into one million universe district.
Send 2000 patrol teams to guard this domain.
Whichever direction Reinhard comes from,
he will be discovered at once.
Is this the purpose?
Yes.
Actually the one commanding should be Admiral Muller.
I am not very good at this sort of thing.
I see.
11 years ago, while escaping from planet El Facile,
I have used up all my diligence...
This is pioneer scouting team FO12,
We discover enemy's main troops. Position at Galaxy
district 00846 moving towards universe district 1227.
40.6 light seconds away from us It is very near to us.
Brauhitz's Flagship The Flagship Sindur
Commander, do we destroy them?
It's just a patrol team. We don't go for such a small credit,
It's shameful.
Find out their return route, instead.
We may even find out the base of the enemy.
Yes.
Marshal.
We've found out where the enemy is.
We may meet the enemy at Vermillion.
It's really here.
Streit.
Yes.
Tell everyone to take a break.
Having located the enemy,
They won't be launching an attack soon.
It will be good for everyone to take a break.
We have 3 hours.
You may drink if you want.
Yes.
Attention everyone. we've 3 hours of free time,
Everyone should have your meal or take a nap in rotation.
I believe you know that...
Reinhard is an outstanding military genius.
We may not win if we meet with him directly...
under the same military strengths.
You are just as good, aren't you?
Beginning from this year, you've made a fool out of...
three of the Empire's top Admirals already.
It's just pure luck.
Let just put it all to that.
No matter what,
it must be done before the enemy's fleets return,
I think the first to set out,
Will most probably be Gale Wolf.
Before that we must get certain things done fast.
Thus we'll be using the dense formation to break through
the enemy. Adopt a short term battle.
Luckily the enemy wants to wipe us out,
But all we need is to get rid of the Brunhilde Flagship
This is to our advantage,
Because of this,
After the battle begins it will be tireless for awhile.
So take this chance and get some rest.
Do you think we'll win? Admiral.
You will win if you want to.
I wanted very much to win.
But...
How can you do this?
If you don't have confidence,
How are you going to convince others?
Are you a professional soldier whose aim is to win a battle
Or just an ordinary careerist who wants power?
Whichever the cause, I will still try to fan your desire.
And if you are someone who believes in your righteousness
Someone who has a belief and is responsible,
It will be easier to instigate.
But you,
Even in a fierce battle, you are not convinced
of the righteousness you are upholding,
Without any strong belief yet able to win every battle,
From the view of idealism,
It is almost impossible.
Really.
I think even the worst democracy,
Is better than the best autocratic.
That's why I fight for Mr. Truniht,
Set out to fight Reinhard.
I think this is a remarkable belief.
Rudolph who build the Empire,
Became emperor base on the support of people.
What will be the ending of the corrupted democracy?
Do you think this is worth second thought?
But back to this point,
Which is better?
The worst democracy and the best autocratic,
Which is better?
Squad attention, first grade structure.
The distant apart is 84 light seconds,
It's getting closer.
Of course, how to fight from far?
Reporting. The enemy is breaking through the yellow district,
Entering the right range.
Fire!
The battle of Vermillion began in a ordinary manner.
Flagship
Reinhard and Yang Wenli.
Both suspect the opponent will come up with some tricks.
They both intend to observe before taking action.
The unconventional guessing game has begin.
The Flagship Garga Falmul
But once the battle has started,
It has nothing to do with what the two commanders think.
Slowly expand into an disorder battle.
Report, the frontline seek your instruction on what to do next?
This should depend on themselves.
What is a Commander for?
Do I have to do everything?
Go and discuss things like this with your enemy.
I don't have much choice.
The communication will definitely be blocked.
Pass the message,
This is the time to use the space shuttle.
Commander.
The flagship is too near to frontline,
It may becomes the target of firing.
It's safer to retreat.
The commanding of the fleet will depend on the Fleet Commander.
We'll listen to you.
Trung's Flagship Theodoricus
Will be given to each deployment to handle on their own...
Alright! Attack!
Commander, is this appropriate?
Marshal has not given the command to attack.
The communication is cut off,
Since the commanding system cannot deal with the situation,
Waiting for command will lose the chance to win.
Let the frontline decide for its own.
But...
Look at that,
Enemy's first line of breaking through,
Don't they look helpless?
Instead of staying here and wait,
We should take part in the battle,
This is good chance for us to get rid of Yang Wenli.
The reason of retreating,
Is because it's very different from us.
Marshal,
The linkage of the enemy is messed up.
This is a good opportunity,
Move to a position where we can control the situation.
That guy! What is he trying to do?
This is the time, fire!
That guy, what is he doing?
Trung, please answer.
A brave warrior.
Sound can travel far,
While eyes can only see what's in front.
We should avoid people like him.
If we still alive after this battle,
I will listen to you.
But,
To survive now,
We need the military strength of this person.
Send a shuttle to contact Trung.
Fire!
Beautiful!
Help!
Mum...
You are not allowed to retreat! Counterattack!
Cruelty is not their aim for war,
For the righteousness and belief blood is necessary,
Open the door! Quick, open the door!
To fulfil the righteousness called by their highest leader,
Thousands of soldiers are burnt,
Or become handicap.
But as long as the ruler stay at safe places away from the
battle field, they will continue to suggest
Righteousness and belief are more important than lives.
If Reinhard...
and these ordinary despicable rulers
were to draw a comparison between them.
That is where he will always be. At the frontline.
And Yang Wenli felt that...
he is a mass killer and was upset.
Do people like him have the rights to pursue family happiness?
This kind of feeling...
was why he dare not respond to Frederica much earlier.
It seems like it is over,
But in his heart, it is not settled.
Galaxy Calendar Year 799 Empire Calendar Year 490, April 26
