  163,  224,"LEGEND OF THE GALACTIC HEROES"
  986, 1004,"The Galactic Empire's distinguished Prince Kastrop,"
 1004, 1058,"Oigen Kastrop, former Secretary of the Treasury,"
 1058, 1092,"was abusing his authority, and lining his own pockets."
 1092, 1142,"Upon his death, the Empire sought the return of his ill-gotten gains."
 1142, 1190,"However, Prince Kastrop's heir, Maximillian, opposes this."
 1190, 1226,"Backed by those resources, he has plotted his next move."
 1236, 1253,"Maximillian, Sir!!"
 1253, 1312,"I can't bear to see the Kastrop family destroyed before my eyes."
 1312, 1322,"Destroyed?"
 1322, 1344,"If things continue as they have, that's what will happen."
 1344, 1379,"Already, 3,000 occupation fleet are approaching this planet."
 1379, 1420,"Do you think that a haughty local territory is a match for the Empire?!"
 1420, 1434,"What's the Empire?"
 1434, 1464,"They never uttered one word of complaint to my revered father."
 1464, 1500,"I suppose their intention is to make an example of another noble, but I won't allow it."
 1500, 1518,"I'll make them aware of my power!!"
 1518, 1540,"Maximillian!!"
 1560, 1591,"It seems as though the occupation fleet has arrived."
 1591, 1638,"I can show you proof that our forces can stand against the Empire..."
 1733, 1771,"The battle satellites are positioned above the enemy planet Labart's satellites!"
 1771, 1799,"All ships, commence attack!!"
 1837, 1849,"Those are...?"
 1849, 1862,"Perhaps you've heard of it --"
 1862, 1894,"that's the 'Artemis Necklace' which protects the Alliance capital, which you may have heard of..."
 1894, 1901,"It can't be!!"
 1901, 1927,"Yes, it's one and the same..."
 2015, 2049,"Just watch - we'll give them what they deserve!!"
 2061, 2083,"Letting one escape?!"
 2110, 2137,"We can't allow ourselves to be frightened by the Empire..."
 2137, 2155,"Why...? A thing like that...?"
 2155, 2170,"It WAS rather costly,"
 2170, 2219,"but in this Galaxy, if you put out enough gold, you can be prepared for ANY situation."
 2219, 2231,"...Phezzan!!"
 2231, 2273,"You WILL stay for a little while longer, won't you."
 2273, 2294,"Take Count Mariendorf out with you!!"
 2294, 2332,"Idiot!! You've been set up by Phezzan?!"
 2375, 2396,"The Kastrop affair is fine, then."
 2396, 2421,"The Empire won too much at Astarte."
 2421, 2460,"And if the quantity and shape don't match the power...?"
 2460, 2505,"Hmmm... And if that golden-haired brat comes out,"
 2505, 2529,"then what?"
 2636, 2681,"Reinhart was promoted to Imperial Admiral because of his victory at Astarte..."
 2681, 2700,"He'll open the Admiralty anew."
 2700, 2731,"He undertook the consolidation of his camp."
 2751, 2807,"First, he drafted new fleet commanders from the commoners and lesser nobles."
 2807, 2834,"Vice Admiral August Samuel Wahlen"
 2834, 2857,"Vice Admiral Cornelius Lutz;"
 2857, 2880,"Vice Admiral Karl Gustaf Kempf"
 2880, 2908,"Vice Admiral Fritz Joseph Bittenfeld"
 2908, 2933,"Vice Admiral Ernest Mecklinger"
 2933, 2959,"Vice Admiral Wolfgang Mittermeier"
 2959, 2989,"...and Vice Admiral Oskar von Reuental"
 2989, 3029,"They're all young, brave commanders."
 3058, 3104,"And... Promoting Siegfried Kircheis to Rear Admiral..."
 3104, 3134,"He was delivered to the ranks of Admirals in one stroke."
 3153, 3176,"We have receivd marching orders."
 3176, 3209,"Even so, it is not for all of you."
 3209, 3231,"I suppose you've heard of Kastrop's rebellion."
 3231, 3260,"The 3000 ships of the occupation fleet, under Admiral Schmude,"
 3260, 3293,"were destroyed by the defense system known as the 'necklace'."
 3293, 3320,"The Admiral died in battle."
 3320, 3332,"Rear Admiral Kircheis!!"
 3332, 3342,"Sir!!"
 3342, 3362,"This is an Imperial command!!"
 3362, 3410,"Taking a fleet of 2000, you must suppress Maximillian von Kastrop,"
 3410, 3440,"who rises in revolt against the Empire!"
 3440, 3474,"Sir!! I humbly accept the Imperial command."
 3501, 3526,"I thought he would call on us, didn't you?"
 3526, 3561,"Hmph! We too are now in charge of one fleet each."
 3561, 3600,"The way things are we can't, with any confidence, go out and suppress local rebellions."
 3600, 3619,"It's an uncomfortable situation..."
 3619, 3642,"But to give him a direct Imperial command..."
 3642, 3668,"It's a rather poor excuse, isn't it."
 3668, 3729,"If he gives Kircheis the mission, and he wins with a such small force..."
 3729, 3765,"His promotion to Vice Admiral is assured..."
 3765, 3786,"If he wins...!"
 3810, 3830,"It's OK, isn't it...?"
 3830, 3901,"If that red-headed kid can become distinguished, Count Lohengramm's influence will increase as well."
 3901, 3940,"Rear Admiral Kircheis is Count Lohengramm's confidante."
 3940, 3991,"If he is granted a favor now, some day he will be of use - in one way or another..."
 3991, 4020,"Secretary of the Treasury, you worry too much."
 4020, 4056,"All you talk about is 'if he succeeds.'"
 4197, 4226,"Sieg, come back safely..."
 4236, 4254,"Aww... Not with us, eh..."
 4254, 4275,"A sortie with a different family...?"
 4275, 4304,"Don't hurry, I'm saying... This is our job."
 4304, 4320,"Hey, bring me that, will you?  "
 4320, 4366,"But, say... Because that blonde Admiral WAS strong..."
 4366, 4402,"When I was on the flagship Brunhilde, I felt safe..."
 4402, 4418,"Go ahead and say it."
 4418, 4444,"Aww - I've been real LUCKY until now..."
 4444, 4460,"Of course you have - unlimited luck."
 4460, 4495,"Don't you think that that red-headed Rear Admiral well also?!"
 4495, 4505,"Think so?"
 4505, 4520,"How do you know?"
 4520, 4548,"He's a guy with experience in life!"
 4569, 4585,"Bergengrun!!"
 4585, 4610,"Certainly, Count Lohengramm is a renowned commander."
 4610, 4635,"You could even say he's a strategic genious."
 4635, 4677,"However, is there any guarantee that his adjutant will be a great commander?"
 4677, 4697,"A substitute is, after all, only a substitute!!"
 4697, 4716,"You talk too much, Bergengrun!!"
 4716, 4730,"Are you drunk?!"
 4730, 4746,"Yeah, I'm drunk!!"
 4746, 4765,"Do you think I want to die while I'm sober?!"
 4765, 4791,"Ever since we lost the last time,, our military strength has deteriorated."
 4791, 4820,"So...?! Dammit...!"
 4820, 4843,"So... There's no time for drinking and such."
 4843, 4865,"Leave me alone."
 4865, 4881,"Ah!! Hey!! It's His Excellency!!"
 4881, 4914,"Captain Buro."
 4914, 4940,"I want you to confirm the fleet formation."
 4940, 4959,"Please come to the bridge."
 4959, 4985,"Sir!!"
 4985, 5000,"Your Excellency!!"
 5000, 5046,"In MY humble opinion, the total number of lesser officers"
 5046, 5068,"is more important than the fleet formation."
 5068, 5086,"Hey, cut it out, won't you?"
 5086, 5122,"Since we lost the last time, to win with such a small number of troops..."
 5122, 5148,"If we succeed, certainly it'll be 'bully for our side'."
 5148, 5162,"However, the truth of the matter is,"
 5162, 5192,"the mission may not go as Your Excellency and His Excelllency the Admiral have planned!!"
 5192, 5210,"It's just as you say, Captain."
 5210, 5224,"Your Excellency!!"
 5234, 5268,"It can't be...You haven't prepared for failure, have you?"
 5268, 5296,"Well! You have to realize that the possiblility, however small,"
 5296, 5324,"exists because our fleet is so small."
 5324, 5330,"Captain..."
 5330, 5341,"The formation diagram..."
 5341, 5348,"Your Excellency!!"
 5348, 5374,"Please look at this."
 5374, 5396,"It's a different formation, isn't it..."
 5396, 5407,"This..."
 5407, 5426,"What are you thinking of?"
 5426, 5454,"Concentrating so many engineering ships like this!!"
 5454, 5489,"Of course, both His Excellency Lohengramm and I"
 5489, 5517,"think that this plan will succeed."
 5544, 5554,"What...?"
 5554, 5571,"The enemy numbers scarcely 2000?!"
 5571, 5595,"Those Imperial Army rats... What are they thinking?!"
 5595, 5620,"Don't they understand the power of my country yet?!"
 5620, 5639,"Are they making light of me?!"
 5639, 5658,"I think, possibly..."
 5658, 5681,"Maybe they have some plan..."
 5681, 5688,"What!!"
 5688, 5700,"A PLAN?!"
 5700, 5734,"Tell me, what in the world are the chances of victory?!"
 5749, 5783,"Didn't those rascals from Phezzan guarantee that the 'necklace' is invincable?!"
 5783, 5813,"Tell me, what kind of plan is it?!"
 5832, 5862,"Look at all of you - incompetent- all standing in a row!!"
 5862, 5889,"Good-for-nothings!!"
 5889, 5929,"Luckily, those battle satellites have a weak gravitational attraction."
 5929, 5953,"They must not be influenced by the main moon."
 5953, 5970,"Indeed."
 5970, 5996,"Certainly, it's not a trick anyone would think of."
 5996, 6041,"I don't suppose there's any precedent for doing this on a grand scale, is there? "
 6041, 6075,"Because it's 'Let's add another trinket to the chain,' is that it?"
 6075, 6097,"That gaudy fellow...!"
 6097, 6144,"What if Kastrop and company lose their last ray of hope?"
 6144, 6187,"Then they should give up and surrender, but..."
 6187, 6206,"That'll be a relief."
 6206, 6259,"Well... Even if the Necklace ends up being disposed of, it's 'blam' with one shot, later!!"
 6270, 6291,"Hey- You're serious, aren't you?"
 6291, 6312,"You think it's silly?"
 6312, 6320,"No..."
 6320, 6350,"I'm looking forward to the plan going in accordance with your expectations, Your Excellency."
 6350, 6383,"That way, we'll be relieved, too."
 6434, 6455,"IS it silly...?"
 6486, 6509,"Since the two of you aren't children any more..."
 6509, 6532,"Perhaps we should have had wine?"
 6532, 6565,"If you made it, sister, we'll rejoice no matter what you serve us."
 6565, 6592,"Well, was that meant as a compliment?"
 6592, 6619,"Ah - No - It's just that Kircheis always says so..."
 6619, 6637,"Right, Kircheis?"
 6637, 6671,"Oh - That's awful, Lord Reinhart..."
 6671, 6706,"Reinhart, you mustn't tease Sieg."
 6706, 6741,"Go ahead and choose you're favorite wine from the underground storehouse."
 6741, 6780,"Although I must apologize for asking 'His Excellency the Imperial Admiral' to run errands..."
 6780, 6802,"Now you're teasing me."
 6802, 6811,"It's OK."
 6811, 6847,"Errands or whatever, I am at your service."
 6896, 6932,"Sieg, my little brother is always dependant on you, isn't he."
 6932, 6962,"No, it is I who am dependant."
 6962, 6977,"It isn't that way."
 6977, 7001,"Reinhart may not say it,"
 7001, 7028,"but he relies on you."
 7028, 7063,"So please, I beg you, take care of my little brother, won't you?"
 7063, 7074,"You're very kind..."
 7074, 7086,"For such as me..."
 7086, 7137,"Sieg, you are of great value."
 7137, 7167,"In Reinhart, certainly, there is genius."
 7167, 7192,"A genius that nobody else has..."
 7192, 7232,"But, Sieg, my little brother is not an adult like you are."
 7232, 7255,"His eyes, are always looking far away..."
 7255, 7281,"so he can't see where he's headed..."
 7281, 7292,"Surely..."
 7292, 7328,"Surely, Reinhardt's path leads somewhere other than to war."
 7328, 7347,"Is there something in those steps of his?"
 7347, 7371,"Where does that path lead?"
 7371, 7400,"If he should lose his way..."
 7400, 7457,"Sieg, if that happens, talk to him."
 7457, 7487,"You're the only one he'll listen to."
 7487, 7528,"If there comes a time when he won't listen to you..."
 7528, 7557,"Then that's the end of my little brother."
 7557, 7594,"With Reinhart's ruin..."
 7622, 7641,"Lady Annerose..."
 7651, 7670,"Forgive me, Sieg?"
 7670, 7697,"I'm being unreasonable."
 7697, 7730,"But you're the only one I can depend on."
 7730, 7750,"Please leave it to me, Lady Annerose..."
 7750, 7774,"Whatever I can do..."
 7774, 7802,"Even if it means sacrificing myself..."
 7864, 7894,"I'll try, for Lord Reinhart's sake..."
 7894, 7914,"And also..."
 8008, 8039,"Isn't there still more than half left?"
 8039, 8046,"Yes."
 8046, 8078,"You're right - there's little time for drinking alcohol, is there."
 8078, 8094,"Where are you going?"
 8094, 8110,"A nap in the tank bed..."
 8110, 8133,"to sober up."
 8213, 8222,"Your Excellency..."
 8222, 8250,"We've finished deploying the engineering ships..."
 8250, 8269,"Your next order?"
 8269, 8302,"Begin immediately."
 8504, 8525,"You!! What are you scheming?"
 8525, 8543,"Haven't they moved at all?!"
 8543, 8555,"Can't you magnify it more?"
 8555, 8596,"This is maximun."
 8596, 8609,"You - Look!!"
 8609, 8616,"Sir?"
 8616, 8635,"Tell me what you see!"
 8635, 8652,"Just the enemy in the middle?"
 8652, 8676,"Even if they come here, they probably can't do anything."
 8676, 8702,"Prove your loyalty."
 8702, 8713,"T-That's unreasonbale..."
 8713, 8731,"What do you say?"
 8731, 8758,"Whwre ia your loyalty?"
 8758, 8771,"You... You ingrate!!"
 8809, 8844,"Oh - Sorry. I wasn't reprimanding any of you."
 8844, 8880,"You!! Why did you DODGE?!"
 8893, 8920,"Ohh... Forgive me..."
 8920, 8935,"The enemy has moved!!"
 8935, 8944,"What..."
 8944, 8973,"Oh, you finally remembered?!"
 8984, 8997,"Wh - What...!"
 8997, 9017,"Why do you bother me with you useless prattle?"
 9017, 9040,"It's nothing."
 9040, 9051,"I'll make them weary of attacking."
 9051, 9086,"I'll teach them a lesson!!"
 9095, 9154,"They should reaalize the power of the Necklace's automatic defense function!!"
 9227, 9247,"Hey, come a little closer."
 9247, 9275,"That's it. Like that..."
 9317, 9346,"There! Fire!!"
 9408, 9428,"What's wrong?"
 9428, 9438,"What's happened?"
 9438, 9449,"What's going on?"
 9449, 9461,"Report!!"
 9461, 9480,"What's that?"
 9580, 9609,"Wh - What's that?"
 9648, 9669,"Enemy battle satellites disabled!!"
 9669, 9679,"It worked, didn't it."
 9679, 9707,"Yes..."
 9707, 9727,"Serious, after all...?"
 9727, 9753,"What... What happened?"
 9753, 9776,"The engineering ships left little while ago, right?"
 9776, 9814,"They probably used Zephyr particlese with directivity."
 9814, 9844,"'Zephyr Particlesd'... That explosive gas?"
 9844, 9857,"Gasieous explosive, eh?"
 9857, 9875,"Well, something like that..."
 9875, 9916,"At any rate, your precious Necklace has been destroyed."
 9916, 9958,"Any further resistance is useless."
 9958, 9982,"I strongly suggest that you surrender."
 9982,10030,"I will deal leniently with both the ringleader and any conspiritors."
10030,10055,"I will take responsiblility of dealing with them personally."
10082,10113,"You said it was silly, after all, didn't you."
10113,10140,"No. I was just thinking it."
10140,10176,"What would you have done if you were Count Lohengramm, eh?"
10188,10227,"If that were the case, you'd be a trifle uncomfortable, wouldn't you?"
10227,10253,"Oh, I think I'd get along better than you'd expect."
10253,10306,"However, His Excellency the Commander's expectations might be a little different..."
10338,10353,"It's a lie!!"
10353,10381,"They can't allow rebels to live."
10381,10416,"They've never been so generous in the past!"
10416,10428,"This is a trap!!"
10428,10454,"It's nothing but a trap!!"
10454,10473,"If I surrender, I'll be killed..."
10473,10491,"Killed..."
10491,10503,"And so will all of you!"
10503,10519,"The whole family, the retainers, all killed."
10519,10541,"I'm ruined... Ah..."
10541,10564,"It's your fault!!"
10564,10589,"You incited me!!"
10589,10594,"And you!!"
10595,10604,"And you!!"
10605,10617,"And you!!"
10617,10645,"If that's the case, perhaps I should hand the blame back..."
10645,10659,"That's it."
10659,10686,"In the first place, it was Father's fault."
10686,10712,"Because it was Father who was the ringleader."
10712,10727,"Isn't it so!!"
10727,10741,"And then, Phezzan."
10741,10776,"If those misers sell useless things..."
10776,10786,"Phezzan..."
10786,10798,"That's it!!"
10798,10806,"It's Phezzan!!"
10806,10834,"I'll seek refuge in Phezzan!!"
10834,10845,"What are you doing?"
10845,10857,"Make preparations at once!!"
10857,10881,"We'll only take the jewels."
10881,10889,"Oh..."
10889,10912,"and I'll take the women, of course."
10912,10965,"Even if you ask them for refuge, I think escape is now impossible."
10965,10975,"True..."
10975,10991,"Fine - you will be my substitute."
10991,11004,"Sir?"
11004,11020,"Burn yourself to death."
11020,11052,"If you burn your face, we'll deceive them for a little while."
11052,11066,"That being taken care of..."
11066,11080,"Oh, yes."
11080,11097,"Take Count Mariendorf, too."
11097,11110,"Because he'll be a hostage!!"
11110,11128,"Your Excellency!!"
11128,11154,"There is a better way."
11154,11181,"Oh - It's just like you. Very well, what is it?"
11181,11192,"It is..."
11192,11233,"...To do THIS!"
11233,11245,"What are you doing!!"
11245,11254,"Have you lost your mind?!"
11254,11296,"If we offer them your head, maybe we'll be pardoned."
11296,11323,"You... You traitor..."
11323,11334,"What're you doing!!"
11334,11358,"Kill this man!!"
11504,11549,"Y - You little..."
11562,11649,"Inform the fleet that we have been liberated from the tyrant..."
11686,11698,"We did it, didn't we."
11698,11713,"Captain!!"
11713,11740,"Please have the troops disembark."
11740,11759,"Sir!!"
11759,11777,"Please make all the troops withdraw."
11777,11808,"Plundering, violence, etc. are strictly forbidden."
11808,11831,"Violators will be executed."
11831,11847,"Sir!!"
11847,11859,"Young, isn't he."
11859,11867,"Yes..."
11867,11883,"But...?"
11883,11916,"A commander who's actually good...?"
11976,11987,"Father!!"
11987,12006,"Oh, Hilda!"
12006,12029,"You were worried, weren't you."
12065,12099,"It took scarcely two days... Not only that, it's a bloodless capture."
12099,12124,"Such skill... it's rather impressive."
12124,12144,"Is it not good?"
12144,12228,"They say it depends on how a person's used..."
12228,12244,"He'll do it, won't he?"
12244,12264,"Yes."
12300,12315,"Thanks for all your trouble!!"
12315,12331,"I am very sorry..."
12331,12351,"What are you apologizing for?"
12351,12381,"Everyone's saying that you're the new hero of the Empire..."
12381,12397,"A bloodless capture in two days..."
12397,12410,"It's splendid!!"
12410,12435,"Blood WAS spilled."
12435,12463,"The ringleader ended up being killed."
12463,12484,"I am very sorry."
12484,12499,"Is that so...?"
12499,12541,"Kastrop's death was a product of the Empire."
12541,12555,"You can't be held responsible for that."
12555,12566,"Yes, Sir."
12566,12591,"Kircheis..."
12591,12619,"Our way of doing things is not like that..."
12619,12629,"Is it?"
12629,12643,"No, Sir."
12659,12685,"Kircheis..."
12685,12717,"You're a good man..."
12773,12800,"Siegfried Kircheis...?"
12800,12815,"Interesting, isn't it?"
12815,12863,"He seems contented to be under Count Lohengramm."
12863,12887,"They've been best friends since childhood, haven't they...?"
12887,12902,"Hmm. Best friends...?"
12902,12927,"That's a very good thing to know."
12927,12946,"If that's true, there must be a way we can use that information."
12946,12955,"Yes."
12955,12996,"By the way, how shall we handle the Artemis Necklace affair?"
12996,13009,"'How'...?"
13009,13046,"Shouldn't the Alliance be told there is a weak point...?"
13046,13072,"How did HE know there was a weak point, hmm?"
13072,13100,"Ah! That's true..."
13110,13129,"Siegfried Kircheis was appointed Vice Admiral,"
13129,13177,"because of his distinguished service in suppressing the rebellion in the Kastrop system."
13177,13231,"Everyone concluded that he was the 'number 2' of the Lohengramm camp."
13231,13278,"Meanwhile, within the Free Planets Alliance, Yang Weng-Li's preparations"
13278,13340,"for the capture of Iserlohn fortress were steadily progressing."
13340,13343,"Kastrop Revolt -- The End"
14490,14513,"The impregnable Iserlohn Fortress..."
14513,14580,"This is the Imperial Army's huge satellite in the Iserlohn circuit"
14580,14614,"the only navigable route linking the Free Planets alliance and the Galactic Empire."
14614,14656,"This fortress guards the Imperial territory, preventing invasion by the Alliance Army."
14656,14699,"The Alliance Army has devoted every effort to the capture of this fortress."
14699,14716,"Six times during the past four and a half centuries"
14716,14745,"they deployed massive fleets,"
14745,14766,"but they all ended in routs,"
14766,14790,"with countless sacrifices..."
14790,14821,"There are two commanders in the Iserlohn Fortress."
14821,14867,"The first is the Fortress Commander, Admiral Thoma von Stockhausen."
14882,14946,"The other is the commander of the fleet stationed at Iserlohn, Admiral Hans Dietrich von Seeckt."
14946,14971,"The two of them disagree about everything..."
14971,14986,"simply despising each other."
14986,15001,"Even while calling each other names,"
15001,15021,"they compete fiercely for glory during Alliance Army attacks."
15021,15037,"As a result, there are countless battles between the two vast forces of Iserlohn..."
15037,15048,"These are the 'attack'..."
15048,15107,"the fleet stationed at Iserlohn and led by Seeckt..."
15107,15126,"and the 'defense'..."
15126,15199,"the fortress garrison led by Stockhausen."
15199,15220,"And, their huge weapon..."
15220,15271,"the giant cannon called the Thor Hammer."
15419,15463,"The capture of this fortress was the first mission"
15463,15531,"given to Yan Wen-Li as the commander of the newly-formed 13th Fleet."
15741,15771,"Aawww, you're still sleeping..."
15771,15797,"Please get up, Rear Admiral Yang!"
15797,15817,"Hey, get UP!"
15828,15844,"...Julian..."
15844,15857,"If... If I'm elected to the High Council..."
15857,15931,"The first thing I'll do is make it a capital offense to interfere with a morning nap..."
15931,15952,"What are you saying?!"
15952,15982,"If you don't hurry, you'll be late for an important ceremony!"
15982,16009,"Important ceremony...?"
16009,16028,"Have you forgotten?"
16028,16066,"It's the ceremony forming the 13th Fleet!"
16107,16150,"Gentlemen, the 13th Fleet is the crack unit of our army!"
16150,16171,"The old veterans who survived the Astarte Encounter,"
16171,16182,"joining hands with up-and-coming youths,"
16182,16219,"with the purpose of capturing Iserlohn, will defend our Fatherland!"
16219,16237,"What 'up-and-coming'?"
16237,16289,"Isn't it more like 'scraping together stragglers and novices'?"
16289,16337,"The rumors say this fleet's supposed to capture Iserlohn Fortress."
16337,16379,"Are you saying, we who missed death at Astarte are going to have another chance?"
16379,16386,"Hey..."
16386,16399,"whispering's prohibited!"
16399,16412,"I don't care."
16412,16462,"In the first place, the commander doesn't even show up at the formation ceremony!"
16462,16490,"He's the Hero of El Facile?"
16490,16521,"I don't know, but somehow... isn't it just LIKE him to have run away?"
16532,16553,"...shall we not fight together?!"
16553,16559,"Oh!! You're here."
16559,16569,"You're late!"
16569,16584,"I'm very sorry..."
16584,16602,"Hey... you're on right now!!"
16602,16634,"Well, then, the first Commander of the 13th Fleet..."
16634,16665,"Let me introduce Rear Admiral Yang Wen-Li!"
16741,16753,"Let me see..."
16753,16775,"This is very..."
16794,16807,"In short..."
16807,16819,"'For the Fatherland'?"
16819,16835,"'Risking Life'?"
16835,16847,"...No!"
16847,16859,"Why...?"
16859,16896,"Because we can only drink good tea while we're living..."
16896,16904,"Everybody!"
16904,16933,"Let's fight so we don't die!"
16957,16980,"Sensible, isn't he?"
16980,17004,"Hey... HE'S a different commander!"
17091,17104,"If I may say so, that was just like you."
17104,17124,"It's unprecedented, wasn't it?"
17124,17147,"Both the fact that the commander was late for the formation ceremony,"
17147,17169,"AND the content of that speech."
17169,17185,"I was flustered, wasn't I...?"
17185,17220,"My mind just went blank..."
17220,17228,"...By the way, how's it going?"
17228,17249,"The capture of Iserlohn..."
17249,17269,"Is there any chance of victory?"
17269,17296,"With half a fleet...?"
17296,17304,"Well..."
17304,17325,"Whether there is or whether there isn't..."
17325,17333,"Hey!"
17333,17349,"Is it a secret from me?"
17349,17370,"I'll just say this... You should wait 'til later..."
17370,17390,"You'll appreciate it more."
17390,17398,"Ok,"
17398,17408,"fine..."
17408,17437,"If you need any resources to prepare, please don't hesitate to tell me..."
17437,17463,"In negotiations without bribes..."
17463,17472,"I'm sorry..."
17472,17493,"I don't know what to say..."
17493,17510,"When you dishonor our uniforms,"
17510,17539,"you dishonor our army!"
17553,17601,"Picking a quarrel with a young lady is TOO deplorable, isn't it?"
17642,17657,"Who the hell are you!"
17657,17687,"Walter von Schenkopp..."
17687,17726,"If I said, 'the Regimental Commander of the Rosenritters,'"
17726,17757,"it would be a little familiar, wouldn't it...?"
17775,17786,"Be careful!"
17786,17825,"It seems you're worried about that stain!"
17842,17851,"YOU!"
17851,17869,"You think you can insult us?!"
17869,17902,"We're officers under the direct command of His Excellency Truniht!"
17902,17918,"He'll court-martial you!"
17918,17941,"Please... go ahead..."
17941,17985,"And that court-martial will also include an officer who assaulted a civilian..."
17985,18022,"How about if THAT was reported?"
18022,18032,"Why, YOU...!"
18032,18074,"You can have me for an enemy, if you so wish."
18106,18129,"L... Let's go..."
18161,18180,"Whether in the Empire or the Alliance,"
18180,18198,"the corruption of the military is much the same, isn't it?"
18198,18227,"Th... thank you very much!"
18227,18247,"The Rosenritters...?"
18247,18292,"As a close-combat squadron formed from children of Imperial exiles,"
18292,18323,"they have unmatched skill in battle, but..."
18323,18354,"No fleet can manage them..."
18380,18406,"You mentioned resources a little while ago, didn't you...?"
18406,18440,"Please supply a ship from the Imperial Army..."
18440,18474,"There should be spoils from former battles..."
18474,18501,"And about 200 uniforms..."
18501,18512,"And..."
18512,18523,"And...?"
18523,18549,"Those Rosenritters in our fleet."
18549,18575,"The Rosenritters?!"
18620,18629,"What?"
18629,18675,"HE's the commander of the newly formed 13th Fleet...?"
18675,18685,"Yes, Sir."
18685,18721,"It's the latest report that the Defense Ministry got from Phezzan."
18721,18731,"Indeed..."
18731,18770,"It is being treated as insignificant, but..."
18770,18794,"Among the stars that sparkle in space,"
18794,18829,"the individual movements are insignificant..."
18829,18839,"However,"
18839,18860,"the appearance of just one new star"
18860,18897,"is a matter that will change all the star maps of all of space."
18897,18912,"Yang Wen-Li,"
18912,18928,"are you only a planet,"
18928,18937,"or"
18937,18979,"are you a new, shining fixed star...?"
18979,19008,"Then, the other fleet's commanders, eh...?"
19008,19044,"Yang, I hear your fleet will assault Iserlohn."
19044,19065,"What they're saying is,"
19065,19100,"'The baby in diapers will kill the lion, all alone.'"
19100,19134,"But it was probably just drinking gossip..."
19134,19157,"It's pretty accurate, isn't it?"
19157,19168,"Is it?"
19168,19205,"If old man Bucock of the 5th Fleet says one word,"
19205,19232,"everybody will probably shut up; but..."
19232,19238,"How about it?"
19238,19251,"Tonight?"
19251,19264,"Don't become a target for gossip."
19264,19278,"Aren't you going to the promotion ceremony?"
19278,19305,"No... Sorry, Attenborough"
19305,19327,"But couldn't we do it another time?"
19327,19357,"There's less than a day left before the mobilization and I have no spare time at all."
19357,19364,"OK!"
19364,19385,"Well, at the next opportunity..."
19458,19475,"It's Cazellnu."
19475,19484,"If you don't mind my asking,"
19484,19516,"is the Fleet Commander's seat comfortable?"
19516,19546,"By the way, about the aide you requested from personnel..."
19546,19591,"Transferring a brilliant youngster was a tall order,"
19591,19609,"but I found a talented one who closely fits it."
19609,19635,"The Salutatorian graduate from the 794th Class of the Officers' School."
19635,19660,"Not exactly someone who was below-average, eh...?"
19660,19701,"Currently on duty in Information Analysis at the Joint Operations division..."
19701,19731,"His Excellency the Chief of Staff Greenhill personally made the recommendation. "
19731,19757,"The records'll be sent to you later."
19757,19775,"Come in."
19838,19851,"Reporting!"
19851,19878,"I have been appointed as your aide."
19878,19908,"Lieutenant Frederica Greenhill."
19908,19920,"Frederica..."
19920,19940,"Greenhill?"
19940,19951,"It can't be..."
19951,19968,"His Excellency Admiral Greenhill's..."
19968,19979,"Yes, sir..."
19979,20010,"I've heard all about you from my father."
20010,20021,"That damned Cazellnu..."
20021,20033,"He did this on purpose, didn't he..."
20033,20036,"Sir?"
20036,20049,"N... No..."
20049,20059,"Well, I'm at a loss."
20059,20073,"At any rate,"
20073,20081,"pleased to meet you..."
20081,20097,"I'll be counting on you..."
20168,20205,"Space year 796, April 27th."
20205,20255,"The 13th Fleet of the Free Planets Alliance, under the command of Rear Admiral Yang Wen-Li,"
20255,20299,"started on its journey to capture the Imperial Army's Iserlohn Fortress."
20361,20399,"Your Excellency, you're also taking risks, right?"
20399,20432,"If he fails, will you be forced to resign?"
20432,20443,"As things stand,"
20443,20494,"I suppose I'll be forced to retire at the next election,"
20494,20521,"since there was also the previous defeat at Astarte..."
20521,20539,"If so,"
20539,20567,"Mr. Truniht's influence MUST increase..."
20567,20598,"Therefor, you're going to count on Rear Admiral Yang?"
20598,20623,"You seem confident, don't you?"
20623,20651,"And aren't you...?"
20871,20881,"Your Excellency,"
20881,20917,"all ships are prepared for launch."
20917,20952,"13th Fleet, set sail!"
21035,21074,"Although this dispatch is being called a drill,"
21074,21110,"we're approaching the Volhan Star System near Iserlohn Fortress..."
21110,21121,"Put plainly..."
21121,21145,"we're approaching Iserlohn."
21145,21152,"Yes."
21152,21179,"It's a full two weeks' journey to the corridor..."
21179,21215,"Brigadier General Fischer, I'll leave this situation up to you."
21215,21270,"Then, they say the Admiral himself wanders alone through the streets of Heinessenpolis."
21270,21297,"And that he's leaving everything to that old man Fischer,"
21297,21324,"who's said to be famous for fleet deployment."
21324,21369,"Hmm... Can we count on her or not?"
21472,21505,"...And this is the plan that I've been considering."
21505,21551,"It's impossible to take out the Iserlohn Fortress just from the outside."
21551,21588,"By infiltrating inside, we'll certainly end up controlling its nerve center."
21588,21613,"Infiltration...?"
21613,21626,"Admiral Yang,"
21626,21643,"if we do,"
21643,21675,"will we give that crucial task to this Rosenritter leader...?"
21675,21693,"Oh... Yeah."
21693,21724,"It's a solid fortress..."
21724,21749,"If their people are careless, there's a large chance of success..."
21749,21757,"However..."
21757,21803,"Don't you know the rumors about the Rosenritters?"
21803,21825,"I've had them investigated."
21825,21849,"Twelve successive regimental commanders..."
21849,21888,"Of those, four have died in battle."
21888,21919,"Two were promoted to flag officers, and afterwards retired."
21919,21970,"And the remaining six betrayed us and ran back to the Imperial army..."
21970,22000,"In this dispatch the rumors are flying that the 13th regimental commander"
22000,22041,"may also turn traitor."
22041,22103,"Admiral, if, as the rumors say, I'm the 7th traitor, what'll you do?"
22103,22112,"I'll be in a fix."
22112,22139,"THAT'S a problem, I suppose."
22139,22159,"If so, you'll be in plenty of trouble, won't you?"
22159,22193,"You're thinking I have some trick, I suppose?"
22193,22210,"I'm not really thinking anything..."
22210,22245,"Then you'll trust me completely?"
22245,22259,"Yes..."
22284,22323,"I want to hear why you believe in me that much."
22323,22378,"The other day, I was there when you clashed with some of Truniht's officers..."
22378,22415,"You wouldn't treat them to even one glass of champagne..."
22415,22429,"That's the reason..."
22429,22446,"THAT'S the only reason?!"
22446,22453,"Ridiculous!!"
22453,22472,"This important duty..."
22472,22508,"If he turns traitor, they'll say I was no judge of character."
22508,22537,"The 'one man hero' will disappear from this world."
22537,22549,"ADMIRAL!!"
22549,22591,"The Admiral has left all the fleet deployment to ME."
22591,22633,"This time, it's our turn to trust the Admiral."
22633,22654,"Thank you."
22654,22680,"May I ask a question?"
22680,22690,"Go ahead!!"
22690,22744,"I want to know -- what's your objective in this battle?"
22744,22758,"Is it glory?"
22758,22775,"Or is it promotion?"
22775,22801,"No, I don't think it's promotion..."
22801,22837,"To be called 'Your Excellency' before the age of 30 is enough."
22837,22886,"Moreover, if I'm still alive after this battle, I intend to retire."
22886,22897,"Retire?!"
22897,22908,"Yes..."
22908,22944,"Well, along with the pension, I'll also get a retirement disbursement."
22944,23004,"Although one person will be eating frugally with me, costing some money..."
23004,23037,"Are you saying you'll retire under the present circumstances?!"
23037,23060,"You say 'these circumstances'"
23060,23083,"But if we succeed in capturing the Iserlohn Fortress,"
23083,23110,"our nation can gain a strategic advantage."
23110,23167,"Then it may be possible to conclude a satisfactory peace treaty with the Empire..."
23167,23178,"If so, I'll be at liberty."
23178,23225,"I can retire because there will be peace."
23225,23265,"However, will that peace become a permanent matter?"
23265,23308,"There has never been 'permanent peace' in human history..."
23308,23354,"But, there have been plenty of ages wih decades of peace."
23354,23411,"In short, my hope is, haughtily enough, for a few decades of peace in the future."
23411,23448,"But, that they will exceed the length of the war by more than a tenth..."
23448,23481,"The chances are, I think, several tens in thousands..."
23481,23513,"There's a 14 year old boy in my house."
23513,23559,"I don't want to see him dragged off to battle."
23559,23582,"That's all."
23582,23605,"I've been hearing that you're a different sort of person..."
23605,23618,"I know it's rude, Admiral..."
23618,23639,"But are you an honest man?"
23639,23695,"Or are you the greatest sophist since Rudolf the Great? Which are you?"
23695,23727,"Well, I didn't expect an answer..."
23727,23742,"Now that this has come to pass..."
23742,23761,"I'll do what I can."
23761,23797,"For the sake of a permanent peace..."
23899,23906,"Here you are."
23906,23921,"It's got brandy in it"
23921,23937,"Oh. Thanks..."
23937,23958,"Lieutenant, what do you think of it?"
23958,23975,"This operation, I mean."
23975,23986,"It'll succeed."
23986,24006,"Absolutely!!"
24006,24027,"Why so sure?"
24027,24071,"Eight years ago, you succeeded at El Facile, didn't you!"
24071,24131,"You evacuated 3 million civilians from El Facile just before it surrendered..."
24131,24153,"The young hero, Lieutenant Yang Wen-Li..."
24153,24175,"So, you've heard that story, too..."
24175,24259,"That time you succeeded in planting absolute trust in one girl's heart."
24337,24404,"I was on El Facile with Mother. Her family home was there."
24404,24421,"I clearly remember a young Lieutenant taking command,"
24421,24480,"gnawing a sandwich, because he didn't have spare time to eat."
24480,24547,"But I suppose that Lieutenant long ago forgot about the 14 year old girl"
24547,24587,"who brought you coffee in a paper cup when you choked on that sandwich..."
24587,24643,"Maybe you remember what you said after your life was saved by that coffee...?"
24679,24701,"What DID I say?"
24701,24716,"'I HATE coffee."
24716,24745,"I wish you'd given me tea' ..."
24745,24770,"That was rude of me."
24770,24818,"Indeed, she has an incredible memory that's not expected according to the rumors..."
24818,24844,"Space year, May 13th."
24844,24904,"The Alliance Army's 13th fleet rushed into the Iserlohn Circuit."
24958,24979,"There's no longer room for doubt!"
24979,25017,"This communications jamming is proof that the rebel army's approaching."
25017,25044,"Therefore, aren't you saying, Admiral,"
25044,25084,"that we can't even determine the enemy's position by sortieing...?"
25084,25091,"Your Excellency..."
25091,25107,"a strange transmission is coming in."
25107,25122,"What is it?!"
25122,25132,"Sir!"
25132,25151,"A light patrol ship dispatched from the Capital Planet Odin"
25151,25175,"is taking enemy attack,"
25175,25189,"and is presently engaged in combat!!"
25189,25210,"They request assistance."
25210,25221,"We'll sortie!!"
25221,25240,"We can't delay even an instant!!"
25240,25250,"Your Excellency,"
25250,25275,"please wait."
25275,25298,"The newly-appointed Captain Oberstein...?"
25298,25307,"What is it?!"
25307,25329,"Shouldn't we take care?"
25329,25339,"What?!"
25339,25368,"It appears to be an enemy diversion."
25368,25399,"Shouldn't we observe the situation a little longer before moving...?"
25399,25417,"If we go out, the enemy is waiting."
25417,25440,"Are you saying that we'd lose if we fought?!"
25440,25455,"It's not that, but..."
25455,25471,"Then WHAT!!"
25471,25486,"We're soldiers!"
25486,25502,"It's our duty to fight!!"
25502,25534,"Furthermore, what good are we if we can't help an ally who's in trouble?!"
25534,25555,"In any case, Admiral Seeckt..."
25555,25578,"There's some truth in what your staff officer says."
25578,25606,"Without knowing the situation, whether it's an enemy or an ally,"
25606,25624,"if we wait a little longer..."
25624,25645,"I'm the Fleet Commander!!"
25645,25657,"I'll decide!!"
25657,25668,"All ships!!"
25668,25691,"Sortie at once!!"
25789,25794,"Hmph."
25794,25837,"I hope you have a miserable time getting back here."
25859,25900,"In the end, they lost their patience and came out, didn't they?"
25900,25907,"Number of ships..."
25907,25923,"approximately 15,000!!"
25923,25955,"My guess is that's about all of the ships in the entire stationed fleet."
25955,26003,"The enemy, not knowing our strength, will send in the greatest force they have,"
26003,26042,"as a means to contain the front line of the battle."
26042,26067,"Admiral, the preparations are complete."
26067,26091,"The order to sortie, any time..."
26091,26101,"Oh, dear."
26101,26139,"It seems it's not just the enemy who's impatient, eh?"
26165,26172,"Your Excellency,"
26172,26211,"there's been another message from the patrol!!"
26211,26231,"Those who have fought to reach the fortress"
26231,26250,"are even now being pursued and attacked by the rebel army."
26250,26266,"They beg for assistance..."
26266,26290,"What happened to the stationed fleet?"
26290,26311,"Communications have ceased."
26311,26320,"Damn you, Seeckt."
26320,26339,"Where are you lurking?"
26339,26357,"Prepare to open fire!!"
26357,26380,"Because we have allies out there, we can't use the main gun!!"
26380,26388,"Sir!!"
26388,26404,"Informing air defense personnel!!"
26404,26424,"All gun turrets, prepare to open fire!!"
26424,26442,"All gun turrets, prepare to open fire!!"
26442,26465,"Raise the floating gun platforms!!"
26521,26528,"Your Excellency!!"
26528,26566,"Outside the orbit of the Planet Anshal, the fourth planet in the Tiamat system ahead,"
26566,26592,"there's a signal like an enemy fleet."
26592,26603,"Found them?!"
26603,26615,"Good."
26615,26639,"Approach at once."
26649,26665,"Ship image confirmed!!"
26665,26689,"Magnify the projection."
26706,26728,"It's our army's patrol ship, the Bremen."
26728,26768,"The rebel army is visible behind it."
26768,26778,"Open fire!!"
26778,26785,"Wait..."
26785,26811,"Make the situation clear to each gun turret!!"
26811,26823,"Don't hit our allies!!"
26823,26839,"Sir!!"
27013,27048,"The rebel army isn't coming into firing range."
27064,27089,"They're retreating."
27089,27096,"Hmph."
27096,27148,"The bastards know all too well the power of this fortress from their LAST six defeats..."
27148,27165,"A message from the patrol."
27165,27175,"Read it!!"
27175,27183,"Sir."
27183,27197,"'Thank you for your assistance."
27197,27235,"Because of serious damage, request urgent port entry'"
27235,27243,"...it says."
27243,27248,"Good."
27248,27275,"Guide them to port!!"
27364,27385,"At any rate, they've gotten in just fine, haven't they?"
27385,27405,"The real work starts now."
27405,27422,"He'll do it..."
27422,27456,"If he's that Rosenritter..."
27473,27510,"The Iserlohn Fortress is situated between the Empire and the Alliance."
27510,27537,"It is the Imperial Army's key strategic point."
27537,27583,"The last six times, the Alliance Army tried to capture it with large forces,"
27583,27606,"ending in complete failure."
27606,27654,"Now, with scarcely half the forces, they must capture Iserlohn Fortress."
27654,27689,"Yang's plan has started..."
27750,27796,"To be continued in the next chapter."
