The vanguard of the Empire army Black Lancers,
encountered few resistance from the Alliance,
they forged their way to the capital Heinessen.
The Alliance army led by Wittenfeld,
cuts the supply line.
The troop is in dilemma,
Wittenfled attacks the base straightaway,
The leading Flagship Brunehild
Sets out to destroy them.
We've got news from the captives,
send it to the headquarter.
Commander Merkatz,
is still with Yang Wenli,
At last, Lennekanpt has
got it right.
He is with Yang Wenli at El Facile?
It worries us.
But, if he has not got troops,
He can't do much.
Yes.
If there is a split between Yang Wenli and his troop,
that will be good.
Even if a small planet,
is helped by Yang Wenli,
we still can handle it.
Yea. Right. Yea. That's right.
During the battle of Vermillion,
I think it is commendable...
to submit to the government's ceasefire order,
But it shows Yang's limitation.
With his good name,
he may be able to combine the anti-Empire forces,
but I don't think it will last.
El Facile can't support a huge troop.
I don't think other planets,
will submit to El Facile.
You mean,
we don't have to be bothered by Yang Wenli?
Yang Wenli's tactic is formidable,
that's why,
we should avoid direct battle with him.
But if we can cut the supply of the Alliance,
and corner Yang and the Alliance,
he will be destroyed.
That's my opinion.
It seems you don't wish
for a battle between me and Yang.
Though you are bright you may have illusions too.
If I am not defeated by Yang Wenli
could I avoid death and aging?
You are making fun of me,
Your Majesty.
I am sorry.
Ms Mariendorf,
during the Vermillion battle with Yang Wenli...
I suffer an absolute loss.
Your Majesty,
had lost indeed.
Strategically,
he did well in irritating you.
Tactically,
we were almost hit by his missile.
I was lucky,
to have you Mittermeier and Reuentahl,
to counter-attack the enemy's capital.
You contributed much.
I had nothing to do with the victory.
Frankly,
my honour belongs to your Majesty,
you had not lost.
Carrying revenge on Yang Wenli...
is not wise.
Soon the universe will be under control,
Yang can't stop your Majesty.
Your Majesty will have the last laugh.
No one will criticize your Majesty.
Yang's won't.
However,
his men will criticise me.
Hilda feels unrest,
Reinhard, instead of being old and live in peace,
without a rival,
he chooses to devote the best of his life,
to defeat a strong rival.
He will not regret...
Planet El Facile
Julian?
You must be Julian!
It has been some time, Vice Admiral Attemboroug.
Admiral it's too much for you to say that.
We have just arrived.
Captain Konev is still busy with the procedures.
As for Poplan...
Poplan!
Hey, don't interrupt,
when I am with chicks.
It's just a few steps away from
a sweet dream on bed.
You work fast.
You are looking for woman every minute.
There are 40 billion of population,
a half of them are women,
in this 20 billion, some of them are too old or too young,
and there are some that is not pretty.
Hence, only 5 billion of them are my target.
I can't waste any second.
So, the character of the woman is not a problem?
Woman with good character are for you, Attemboroug,
I will deal with...
the remaining.
Don't you notice?
You sound like a swindler.
It doesn't matter.
When we suffered on earth,
you enjoyed your life in Heinessen.
We suffered too!
Forget it! It's good for us to be back.
I will lead you to the Commander let's talk on our way.
It's not easy to,
sever the relationship with the Alliance,
It's like waking up from hypnosis.
Listen, Captain Poplan,
You must get it clear,
We are not battling on passion or madness,
I will know it,
when I see your irritating faces,
At last, it's only a change in name.
Names like Anti-Right Unit or Communist Army,
sucks.
If you need a name, why not something like, 'Poplan's n Guys',
it's not bad too.
It's not approved!
Or, Poplan club.
Disapproved! Disapproved!
Ok. I will settle the luggage,
there are some cupboards in the basement.
I will find them.
Poplan,
You are excused.
Julian, do you know that girl?
Yea, at the base of Dayan-Han,
Captain Poplan, introduced her to me.
But how did you know her?
She is a daughter of my friend.
Chief Petty Officer Katerose
You know her!
Let me tell you,
she is Schenkopp's daughter,
Oh,
I can't believe that Schenkopp,
has a daughter.
Moreover, it's that girl.
but think it over.
Schenkopp, started his life in army,
at your age and made massive contributions,
it's not surprising to have a group of illegitimate kids.
I may have found her familiar because of this.
Does Schenkopp know this?
No.
So, Julian,
what about letting them meet?
May not be feasible,
I feel the girl's dislike for me.
What have you done?
Nothing.
It's just my feeling...
Whatsoever I would rather,
not to care about Schenkopp's family affairs,
but to focus on the regaining of lserlohn.
Come in, Julian.
The lazy marshal...
is doing his work reluctantly.
You must give your best shot.
If your generation can't solve the problem,
the next generation will suffer.
You work hard and gain improvement,
it's my honour, commander.
Julian,
Commander.
Welcome back.
Julian, you look good.
Yes I am back.
I am back,
to the place I belong to.
Back to the people I belong to.
Yang Wenli has listened to Julian's report,
and have a briefing on regaining lserlohn.
We will be going back to lserlohn soon.
If it goes smooth,
It will.
The Emperor Reinhard likes to...
besiege his enemy.
I like it too.
If our troop is stronger than Reinhard's,
I will split them to besiege the enemy.
We don't have to do this,
after taking over lserlohn,
we can go further,
to attack the Empire.
Then, Reinhard must take the way to Phezzan,
to return to Empire.
If the independent troops in Phezzan takes action...
It's no use making assumptions,
We have no contact with the independent troops in Phezzan.
we should start now.
Why isn't Boris here?
He promised to come after the procedures.
Oh, I want to ask from him a favour.
I have been waiting for him.
Yang Wenli has miscalculated a factor,
He does not think that the Alliance can fight with the Empire,
in an organised manner.
If he knows Commander Bucock and Tilton,
combined their forces to deal with Reinhard,
he may have thought differently.
This may be the first time for Yang...
to get into a war in which he stands no chance.
There are comments from the future historians.
the cd which Julian took from earth,
will be examined later.
For the moment regaining lserlohn Fortress,
is the first priority.
They will regret not examining the cd sooner.
The situation worsens,
according to the government officers,
it's not good for you to,
Iead the army in the war.
If, by any means,
when the marshal is absent,
and our enemies launch attack,
what should we do?
I have said it it's impossible for the moment.
It's possible that the anti-revolutionist,
will take military action.
You intimidated them from doing so.
Get Merkatz to stay.
Commander Merkatz...
I can't take it.
He objects not because Merkatz is in exile,
but the military force that I possess,
If they are not notified of our action,
they will be worried,
they are afraid that you'll usurp their power.
and thing may go worse.
It's the indiscreet speech by Schenkopp,
that has,
ruin the things.
If you stay in planet El Facile,
their men will not dare to act wildly.
It's indeed hostage.
Yea.
But the plan is out,
Iet others carry it out.
Give it to Attemboroug.
For long term consideration,
he should gain experience,
in the rearside to gain holistic view.
The Admiral commander is Merkatz.
Frontline commander is Schenkopp.
During the preparation for the war,
before final arrangement is made,
Yang Wenli talks with Boris Konev,
hope that merchant from Phezzan,
could secretly support El Facile, financially,
he wants Konev to do it.
For the moment they won't,
support,
on whatever assurance given.
I think that,
to get passionate support from the merchants,
we must have attractive conditions,
to lure them.
You are not going to help?
I did not say so.
I mean,
we should have some fundaments.
Though it has not happened,
but once the Empire conquers the universe,
the people of Phezzan will worry.
If things don't go right,
they have to support you at last.
What's your view?
Empires turn all the industries into state-run,
and plan to tax the profits,
of the merchants,
if it's true it will be big trouble,
is this true?
It may turn out to be real.
The Emperor Reinhard detests monopoly of wealth.
You can see what the old nobles face.
Oh well,
if we are to fight,
it's better to have a strong match.
Let's stop discussion on this.
I hope you can tell me the truth about this,
Iet me ask you,
Do you really want to outmatch Reinhard?
His Majesty is not faulty in his policy,
He is powerful enough,
to unite the universe.
After defeating him,
can you assure a better era?
No.
You are honest indeed.
Let's put this aside.
The issue is that whatever effort you make,
it can't help the democracy,
to revive it.
Are you really doing it?
This may be true,
though it may not last long,
but we should do it as long as there is hope.
We must do it as we have hope.
Mustn't we, Boris?
Yes, you are right.
Ever since the bridge of Reich has been destroyed by Rudolph
Goldenbaum, as he usurped the power...
And 2 centuries before Ale Heinessen appeared.
The fundaments of democracy is weakened,
It is difficult to revive.
As it will take long,
at least, we should reduce the load on our descendants,
Descendants? Julian?
He is one of them. Yes.
He is not bad.
I have been with him these few months,
I know much about him.
However,
no matter how well he sings,
his talent is limited,
you know this well, too.
A disciple will not exceed the master,
if he follows and does not create.
One thing I have noticed,
that is the cd from The Earth Sect.
Julian does not plan to analyse it,
He send it to you,
and want you to analyse and decide...
his loyalty is flawless.
If I were him, I will check it,
so even if the cd is lost,
I know some of the contents clearly.
Julian should be,
more independent.
You are right.
Did you tell him?
No, I fear it may hurt him.
I am not sure if I could live up to your expectation,
I will try my best, see you.
About work arrangement on lserlohn battle...
I have assigned it to you.
Yea.
I am looking for volunteers for the war.
Julian volunteers.
What's the problem?
I evaluate him on his willingness and strengths,
He does qualify.
But since you are here,
I think it may be better to let him be with you.
What do you think?
Do as you say, officer.
So...
I shall take a leave, commander.
Is this good for him,
He is not independent.
You will be with the Rear Commander Attemboroug.
It's good, to watch us fight,
in the war from here.
Schenkopp,
Do you know among the volunteers,
there is a Katerose,
a female sergeant.
Is she a beauty?
Why are you asking this?
If she is a beauty, it's my daughter,
if not, she is not related to me.
She is a beauty.
So,
with different thoughts,
the regaining of lserlohn Fortress will commence.
Planet Heinessen.
Meanwhile,
there are fleets from planet Heinessen,
The main flagship for Free Planets Alliance
We are ready.
Forge ahead.
Galaxy Year 799, Dec.
This is the Alliance
The attack of the last fleet.
The Regaining of lserlohn.
