1
00:00:04,660 --> 00:00:08,770
Oh God, forgive me...

2
00:00:09,270 --> 00:00:12,480
Forgive me for staining the earth
with the blood of my foes,

3
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,470
and guide me to the promised land.

4
00:00:16,270 --> 00:00:19,420
I am but a poor, ignorant lamb.

5
00:00:19,420 --> 00:00:21,960
A lost lamb who is ignorant of the truth.

6
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,290
I sing a song of praise unto the Lord.

7
00:00:28,020 --> 00:00:35,060
Oh, I praise the Lord.
I praise the heart of the Lord.

8
00:00:44,130 --> 00:00:48,270
Fuck you. I'd prefer to
feed you to the pigs.

9
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,280
Attention, everyone!

10
00:01:11,770 --> 00:01:14,830
What a naughty girl you are.

11
00:01:14,830 --> 00:01:18,550
I'm so overcome with feeling,
I can't control myself!

12
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,890
My little fairy...

13
00:01:44,930 --> 00:01:47,800
You certainly made a mess of things.

14
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,350
I regret acting out of line.

15
00:01:54,650 --> 00:01:57,660
But this is the will of God.

16
00:01:57,660 --> 00:02:00,220
She must be defeated...

17
00:02:01,740 --> 00:02:04,410
That demon!

18
00:02:13,170 --> 00:02:14,860
Are you serious?

19
00:02:14,860 --> 00:02:17,730
You're putting Lt. Colonel Degurechaff
in charge of that combat team?

20
00:02:19,030 --> 00:02:20,320
Of course.

21
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,120
In light of the current war situation,

22
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,490
we've no choice but to put her
in charge of her brainchild.

23
00:02:25,490 --> 00:02:30,290
But... behind that appearance
of a little girl...

24
00:02:33,180 --> 00:02:34,760
...is a monster.

25
00:02:39,130 --> 00:02:41,230
That's what you want to say, right?

26
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,070
Welcome to my combat team!

27
00:02:50,620 --> 00:02:54,070
My wonderful comrades-in-arms, with whom
I've enjoyed my time so much...

28
00:02:54,300 --> 00:02:58,400
Let us rejoice in our new comrades!

29
00:02:58,860 --> 00:03:03,450
And to those of you who are new,
I welcome you with open arms.

30
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:08,150
Welcome to my... to our battlefield.

31
00:03:08,620 --> 00:03:10,870
This world is unfair!

32
00:03:10,870 --> 00:03:13,870
And the battlefield is one
insane thing after another!

33
00:03:15,030 --> 00:03:17,430
And for all of you, that means...

34
00:03:17,430 --> 00:03:21,800
You are now free... to choose!

35
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,910
Choose whether to struggle or die!

36
00:03:26,450 --> 00:03:28,950
Welcome to the front lines!

37
00:03:29,370 --> 00:03:31,980
It's time for war!

38
00:03:35,060 --> 00:03:36,200
This story is a work of fiction. People, organizations, locations, laws, names, etc. have no relation to any real-life counterparts.

39
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:37,960
How?

40
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:39,980
How did this happen?

41
00:03:39,990 --> 00:03:42,200
Unified Year 1926, Autumn

42
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:48,370
Eastern Front, Near the Front Lines

43
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:50,250
We're in enemy firing range here, too!

44
00:03:50,250 --> 00:03:52,110
Imperial Army Salamander Combat Team Infantry Commander
Captain Lienhart Thon
Imperial Army Salamander Combat Team Infantry XO
Lieutenant Klaus Tospan

45
00:03:52,110 --> 00:03:53,550
Give the order to retreat!

46
00:03:53,550 --> 00:03:57,850
No! The principle of elastic defense
requires us to defend this point!

47
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,400
Our infantry are a bunch of dumbasses.

48
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,590
What's the point of
holing up in a trench there?

49
00:04:13,260 --> 00:04:13,270
Our allies are cut off!
We need to protect them!

50
00:04:13,270 --> 00:04:15,880
Imperial Army Salamander Combat Team Armored Unit Commander
Captain Elmer Ahrens

51
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,800
Annihilate the enemy forces!

52
00:04:20,610 --> 00:04:22,510
We're under attack! Fall back! Fall back!

53
00:04:22,510 --> 00:04:25,630
And our tanks are poorly trained dogs
who don't even know how to sit?

54
00:04:25,630 --> 00:04:29,400
Our job right now isn't to attack!
It's to recover our allies!

55
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:29,410
Our allies' base has been surrounded!
We will provide support!

56
00:04:29,410 --> 00:04:32,960
Imperial Army Salamander Combat Team Artillery Commander
Captain Rolf Meybert

57
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:34,890
Artillery, full attack!

58
00:04:39,660 --> 00:04:41,310
We're out of shells!

59
00:04:41,310 --> 00:04:42,060
What?

60
00:04:42,060 --> 00:04:44,810
And my artillery is just
a random group of morons!

61
00:04:44,810 --> 00:04:49,180
Have you even considered whether
that base is worth all those shells?

62
00:04:49,180 --> 00:04:49,580
Imperial Army 203rd Aerial Mage Battalion 4th Company Commander
Lieutenant Theobald Wüstemann

63
00:04:49,580 --> 00:04:51,700
Hurry! Climb!

64
00:04:51,700 --> 00:04:53,300
Stay in formation!

65
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:59,280
And our new mages aren't even
worth using as human shields.

66
00:05:01,130 --> 00:05:03,770
They all work hard, but they're so dumb!

67
00:05:03,770 --> 00:05:06,780
Why am I in charge of this combat team?!

68
00:05:06,780 --> 00:05:07,800
Episode One:
Salamander Combat Team

69
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:09,940
Fuck this!

70
00:05:10,780 --> 00:05:11,070
Imperial Army Strategic Headquarters 203rd Aerial Mage Battalion Commander and Salamander Combat Team Commander
Lt. Colonel Tanya von Degurechaff

71
00:05:11,070 --> 00:05:14,540
This is what happens when I had
barely any time to train them.

72
00:05:14,540 --> 00:05:16,800
What a waste of time.

73
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,760
Lieutenant Colonel! Fighters!

74
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,470
Four of them, heading our way!

75
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:22,050
Altitude 9500, speed 350!

76
00:05:22,050 --> 00:05:25,040
Imperial Army 203rd Aerial Mage Battalion XO
Lieutenant Viktoriya Ivanovna Serebryakov

77
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:25,050
They're after our surface base!

78
00:05:25,050 --> 00:05:26,930
Imperial Army 203rd Aerial Mage Battalion 3rd Company Commander
Captain Rhiner Neumann

79
00:05:26,930 --> 00:05:27,270
Imperial Army 203rd Aerial Mage Battalion 2nd Company Commander
Captain Wilibald Koenig

80
00:05:27,270 --> 00:05:30,000
Lieutenant Grantz's unit is the closest!
They're en route to provide support!

81
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:30,140
We're moving as fast as we can,
but those fighters will get there first!

82
00:05:30,140 --> 00:05:32,470
Imperial Army 203rd Aerial Mage Battalion 1st Company Commander
Lieutenant Warren Grantz

83
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:43,390
Enemy fighters approaching!

84
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,360
We can't hold this position!

85
00:05:50,620 --> 00:05:53,710
What the hell are those mages doing?

86
00:06:06,020 --> 00:06:10,610
Damn it. I told you not to slow me down.

87
00:06:12,540 --> 00:06:13,990
You got here fast.

88
00:06:13,990 --> 00:06:15,930
Sorry! We'll head to intercept.

89
00:06:15,930 --> 00:06:16,920
Wait.

90
00:06:17,260 --> 00:06:20,470
I'll do it. Let me give everyone
a tactical demonstration.

91
00:06:20,470 --> 00:06:21,950
You'll do it personally?

92
00:06:22,370 --> 00:06:25,690
The Federation doesn't give
its fighters a mage escort.

93
00:06:25,690 --> 00:06:28,360
The rest of you support
the ground forces' retreat.

94
00:06:37,450 --> 00:06:39,940
Dog of the Empire!
There's just one of you?

95
00:06:39,940 --> 00:06:40,830
You think you can take us?!

96
00:06:51,280 --> 00:06:53,370
That's the Commies I know!

97
00:06:53,370 --> 00:06:56,390
They love wasting bullets
and soldiers' lives!

98
00:06:58,300 --> 00:07:00,340
How can she move like that?

99
00:07:00,340 --> 00:07:01,890
A named mage?

100
00:07:01,890 --> 00:07:03,520
The Devil of the Rhine?!

101
00:07:18,340 --> 00:07:20,920
I doubt anybody's learning
anything from this shit.

102
00:07:21,370 --> 00:07:22,710
Enemy sighted!

103
00:07:22,710 --> 00:07:25,420
Show them what you learned
in your training!

104
00:07:30,930 --> 00:07:33,520
I'm fighting here!

105
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,700
Don't you know how to
work with your allies?!

106
00:07:35,700 --> 00:07:36,210
Now!

107
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,980
Die, monster!

108
00:07:58,900 --> 00:08:00,730
She knocked it out of the sky?

109
00:08:00,730 --> 00:08:02,790
That's what it looks like when
you have the Silver Wings...

110
00:08:03,790 --> 00:08:07,120
No... It's hopeless!

111
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,420
Oh, God!

112
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,030
Even the fucking Commies are
begging for God's help?

113
00:08:22,030 --> 00:08:25,550
I'm sick of people who keep
clinging to the absurd.

114
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:30,610
Oh, Lord, grant us balance and order.

115
00:08:30,610 --> 00:08:33,770
Grant us peace, and the promised land.

116
00:08:34,350 --> 00:08:37,100
You are the guiding shepherd.

117
00:08:37,100 --> 00:08:41,040
Guide us upon the path of hardship
and lead us to the summit of the hill.

118
00:08:41,380 --> 00:08:44,170
You are the promised crown of glory,

119
00:08:44,170 --> 00:08:45,530
the house of honor...

120
00:08:45,530 --> 00:08:48,390
A world of peace and purity.

121
00:08:49,370 --> 00:08:53,420
May your gospel resound upon the Earth...

122
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,590
Upon the world.

123
00:09:13,380 --> 00:09:16,610
Shit. Why the hell do
I have to praise God?

124
00:09:17,030 --> 00:09:19,520
That bastard's trying to brainwash me.

125
00:09:20,380 --> 00:09:22,000
This is 02.

126
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,480
Our surface forces have
completed their withdrawal.

127
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:25,760
Roger that.

128
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,880
Everyone, return to base immediately.

129
00:09:29,250 --> 00:09:33,620
Also, it seems our new recruits
don't know how to fight a war yet.

130
00:09:34,340 --> 00:09:38,490
Once we're back, I want every
single unit commander in my tent.

131
00:09:38,970 --> 00:09:41,680
Salamander Combat Team Garrison

132
00:09:42,230 --> 00:09:46,100
Captain Ahrens. Why did you
send in your tanks?

133
00:09:46,100 --> 00:09:49,410
Does the concept of "reserve forces"
mean nothing to you?

134
00:09:50,140 --> 00:09:54,200
And Captain Meybert, it seems you don't
know how valuable an artillery shell is.

135
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:58,080
If I start deducting from your salary,
will that get it through your head?

136
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,800
And Captain Thon and Lieutenant Tospan,
are you simply stupid?

137
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,000
Why would you try to hole up
in a forward position?

138
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,710
On the Eastern Front, defending
our camp is our highest priority.

139
00:10:07,810 --> 00:10:11,350
And Wüstemann, your maximum air time
is still in the double digits?

140
00:10:11,350 --> 00:10:12,710
That's pathetic.

141
00:10:12,710 --> 00:10:15,370
You're gonna get shot down
within the day at this rate.

142
00:10:16,210 --> 00:10:17,860
Let me make this as clear as I can.

143
00:10:17,860 --> 00:10:21,200
Our forces pride themselves on our speed.

144
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,800
But this front is huge, and we...

145
00:10:24,610 --> 00:10:26,220
We can only defend a single point.

146
00:10:26,220 --> 00:10:28,790
Thus, we need to make that point strong.

147
00:10:28,790 --> 00:10:33,990
If we can't do that, our already depleted
forces will be isolated and wiped out.

148
00:10:33,990 --> 00:10:37,460
B-But ma'am, if we stay in our camp
we'll be surrounded!

149
00:10:37,460 --> 00:10:41,780
Elastic defense theory teaches us
to never give up the initiative!

150
00:10:41,780 --> 00:10:43,740
Shut up, textbook for brains!

151
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,580
The elastic defense theory you were taught

152
00:10:47,580 --> 00:10:50,750
only works under conditions
of adequate manpower,

153
00:10:50,750 --> 00:10:53,250
adequate equipment, and adequate supply!

154
00:10:53,560 --> 00:10:57,340
And here on the Eastern Front,
that's impossible.

155
00:10:57,340 --> 00:11:02,260
But you lot refuse to accept that reality.

156
00:11:02,260 --> 00:11:03,820
Sheesh.

157
00:11:03,820 --> 00:11:08,060
There's nothing worse than someone
who's stubborn, stupid, and hardworking.

158
00:11:10,430 --> 00:11:14,290
The war began with the Entente Alliance
violating our borders.

159
00:11:14,290 --> 00:11:17,250
Now it's spread to the whole continent.

160
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,570
We occupied the northern
Entente Alliance territories,

161
00:11:21,570 --> 00:11:23,900
but now the partisans
are fighting back hard.

162
00:11:24,410 --> 00:11:26,020
And down on the southern continent,

163
00:11:26,020 --> 00:11:30,040
we're still fighting a group
calling itself the Free Republic.

164
00:11:32,860 --> 00:11:35,680
Our war against the Federation
on the eastern front

165
00:11:35,680 --> 00:11:38,060
shows every sign of
turning into a quagmire.

166
00:11:39,170 --> 00:11:39,550
We are taking heavy losses at
the hands of the Imperial Army.

167
00:11:39,550 --> 00:11:44,650
Somewhere in Moskva, People's Party Conference Room

168
00:11:44,650 --> 00:11:50,980
And those who allowed this to happen
must suffer the people's wrath!

169
00:11:50,980 --> 00:11:55,730
And thus, we must come together!

170
00:11:55,730 --> 00:11:57,470
Party Leader
Comrade Secretary Josef

171
00:11:57,470 --> 00:11:57,480
We must give our former
comrades a chance to atone!

172
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:01,330
People's Commissariat for Internal Affairs Committee Member
Comrade Loria

173
00:12:01,330 --> 00:12:04,270
We must bring in the
mages that we sent away

174
00:12:04,270 --> 00:12:06,490
for the crime of siding
with the old order!

175
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:13,490
B-But the very existence of mages
goes against party principles.

176
00:12:13,490 --> 00:12:17,790
Oh? Comrade, are you saying
that you're opposed to having

177
00:12:17,790 --> 00:12:21,500
these counterrevolutionary elements
fight the Imperial Army?

178
00:12:21,500 --> 00:12:24,410
N-No! I just...

179
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,010
Comrade Secretary,

180
00:12:28,010 --> 00:12:31,930
I am free to proceed with bringing
the mages into the army, yes?

181
00:12:32,730 --> 00:12:37,840
And to the west, the Allied Kingdom
maintains air superiority,

182
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,360
while it attempts to find
new methods of cooperation.

183
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,690
Allied Kingdom Capital, Whitehall

184
00:12:43,910 --> 00:12:45,950
So Prime Minister Churbull,

185
00:12:45,950 --> 00:12:49,450
Allied Kingdom Navy
Major General Donald Habergram
you want to work more closely
with the Federation?

186
00:12:49,450 --> 00:12:51,690
Allied Kingdom
Prime Minister Churbull

187
00:12:51,690 --> 00:12:53,890
Major General Habergram,

188
00:12:53,890 --> 00:12:56,450
you're an intelligence officer,
so I expect you to understand.

189
00:12:56,450 --> 00:13:01,090
If we have to make a deal
with the devil, so be it.

190
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:06,490
I see. So we're making
one devil fight another.

191
00:13:07,620 --> 00:13:13,210
The Ildoa Kingdom, which allied with
the Empire, maintains neutrality.

192
00:13:13,210 --> 00:13:16,110
Meanwhile, the Unified States,
on the other side of the ocean,

193
00:13:16,110 --> 00:13:19,930
is providing support to our enemies
in the form of weapons and supplies.

194
00:13:19,930 --> 00:13:23,500
They even sent in a multinational
volunteer force.

195
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,390
Gravesite Somewhere in Federation Territory

196
00:13:27,390 --> 00:13:31,400
Why can't we send them
back to their homelands?

197
00:13:31,860 --> 00:13:36,070
The rule is that war dead
are buried where they died.

198
00:13:36,610 --> 00:13:39,660
We can't cause problems for other
countries in the middle of a war.

199
00:13:39,670 --> 00:13:40,370
Unified States Volunteer
Lieutenant Mary Sue

200
00:13:40,370 --> 00:13:41,740
But...

201
00:13:41,740 --> 00:13:43,300
It is what it is.

202
00:13:44,010 --> 00:13:47,000
A hero rests in the land where they fell.

203
00:13:48,700 --> 00:13:54,490
The Empire's enormous military might has
made it the enemy of the whole world.

204
00:13:55,950 --> 00:13:58,970
Damn it. Why did this happen?

205
00:13:59,380 --> 00:14:04,770
I'd rather be training a bunch of
penguins than those new recruits!

206
00:14:04,770 --> 00:14:08,740
Actually, in my old world, didn't some
country give a penguin an honorary rank?

207
00:14:31,710 --> 00:14:34,210
The snow is impossibly beautiful,

208
00:14:34,210 --> 00:14:36,030
and impossibly merciless.

209
00:14:36,490 --> 00:14:40,290
I don't even need to recall what happened
in the world war in my last world.

210
00:14:42,180 --> 00:14:45,780
Winter saps a soldier's strength,
wears at their mind,

211
00:14:45,780 --> 00:14:47,810
and freezes their legs.

212
00:14:48,690 --> 00:14:53,780
And when the snow melts, it'll become mud
that we'll have to wade through.

213
00:14:54,690 --> 00:14:57,960
The Empire's greatest
strength is its mobility.

214
00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:59,920
This is the worst battlefield
possible for it.

215
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,030
We can't win like this.

216
00:15:06,090 --> 00:15:07,970
Emergency report, Lieutenant Colonel!

217
00:15:07,970 --> 00:15:09,970
What is it? What happened?

218
00:15:09,970 --> 00:15:12,850
Major Weiss encountered
the enemy while on patrol.

219
00:15:12,850 --> 00:15:16,480
Two Federation infantry brigades
are approaching fast!

220
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:18,740
Two infantry brigades?!

221
00:15:18,740 --> 00:15:19,480
Yes.

222
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,970
Major Weiss had the frontline
units fall back.

223
00:15:23,370 --> 00:15:26,400
Good. He has my authorization.

224
00:15:28,570 --> 00:15:30,290
This is bad...

225
00:15:30,290 --> 00:15:32,590
We're going to be swallowed
up at this rate.

226
00:15:41,090 --> 00:15:42,150
Men!

227
00:15:42,490 --> 00:15:44,340
The situation is simple!

228
00:15:44,340 --> 00:15:47,980
A huge enemy army is
about to surround us!

229
00:15:48,570 --> 00:15:52,030
We have no choice but to let them attack,
wait for them to exhaust themselves,

230
00:15:52,030 --> 00:15:53,620
and launch a counterattack!

231
00:15:54,010 --> 00:15:55,430
This is a defensive battle!

232
00:15:55,430 --> 00:15:57,630
Keep your positions in good order!

233
00:15:57,630 --> 00:15:58,680
Yes, ma'am!

234
00:16:12,260 --> 00:16:16,580
All units are in position
and ready to intercept.

235
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:18,130
Good.

236
00:16:18,130 --> 00:16:20,100
By the way, Lieutenant Tospan.

237
00:16:20,100 --> 00:16:21,820
Where's Captain Thon?

238
00:16:21,820 --> 00:16:23,320
Why is he not answering?

239
00:16:23,660 --> 00:16:25,840
Well, he's...

240
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,250
He's leading a recon team.

241
00:16:29,380 --> 00:16:31,910
H-He wants to survey the terrain!

242
00:16:31,910 --> 00:16:34,420
He says an officer
should see it for himself.

243
00:16:34,670 --> 00:16:37,430
Then do it before
the fucking enemy gets here!

244
00:16:37,430 --> 00:16:40,850
Keep your men in shouting distance!

245
00:16:40,850 --> 00:16:42,120
But ma'am...

246
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:43,090
Shut up!

247
00:16:43,090 --> 00:16:45,010
Turn over command to Lieutenant Grantz!

248
00:16:45,010 --> 00:16:46,760
Wait!

249
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,250
An officer has the right to
make his own decisions...

250
00:16:49,250 --> 00:16:50,940
I told you to shut up!

251
00:16:50,940 --> 00:16:53,790
I'm too busy to deal with your bullshit!

252
00:16:53,790 --> 00:16:56,570
From now on, Captain Thon
is to be treated as MIA!

253
00:16:56,570 --> 00:16:58,820
But that's not fair...

254
00:17:03,370 --> 00:17:06,090
Useless goddamn morons...

255
00:17:06,090 --> 00:17:09,340
And the snow fell earlier
than I expected...

256
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,150
How do we get out of this?

257
00:17:19,350 --> 00:17:23,380
How come none of the units
are reporting enemy contact?

258
00:17:24,330 --> 00:17:26,940
The enemy's still waiting to attack?

259
00:17:26,940 --> 00:17:29,490
Are they continuing their encirclement?

260
00:17:29,490 --> 00:17:32,200
Should I try to attack and
see how they respond?

261
00:17:33,120 --> 00:17:36,300
Major Weiss, can you
do artillery spotting?

262
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,900
In this darkness, I can't
promise it'll be accurate.

263
00:17:40,900 --> 00:17:42,430
I thought so.

264
00:17:42,430 --> 00:17:44,260
Maybe I should wait to see
what the enemy does...

265
00:17:44,260 --> 00:17:45,170
Lieutenant Colonel!

266
00:17:45,170 --> 00:17:46,650
Let us try!

267
00:17:46,650 --> 00:17:49,280
We've trained hard for
night artillery combat.

268
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:50,430
Okay.

269
00:17:50,850 --> 00:17:54,350
Open fire as soon as
Major Weiss gives the order.

270
00:17:54,350 --> 00:17:57,420
But don't use too many shells.

271
00:17:57,420 --> 00:17:58,860
Conserve your ammo.

272
00:17:58,860 --> 00:17:59,550
Understood!

273
00:18:00,490 --> 00:18:02,050
Sharing coordinates!

274
00:18:02,050 --> 00:18:03,510
A8C6!

275
00:18:03,510 --> 00:18:05,670
I repeat! A8C6!

276
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,310
Load the guns!

277
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:08,900
Fire!

278
00:18:18,650 --> 00:18:19,190
Imperial Army 203rd Aerial Mage Battalion Vice-Commander and Salamander Combat Team Vice Commander
Major Matheus Johann Weiss

279
00:18:19,190 --> 00:18:20,270
Any effect?

280
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,160
The effect is unknown.

281
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,440
The darkness is worse than expected.

282
00:18:27,330 --> 00:18:29,430
All units, stay sharp.

283
00:18:29,430 --> 00:18:32,070
Stay in position until further orders!

284
00:18:32,070 --> 00:18:34,260
Don't let the enemy lure you out!
It's a waiting game now!

285
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,840
Lieutenant Colonel, this is strange.

286
00:18:58,840 --> 00:18:59,980
What is?

287
00:19:00,420 --> 00:19:02,230
It's strangely silent.

288
00:19:02,530 --> 00:19:05,240
What is the enemy trying to do?

289
00:19:05,670 --> 00:19:07,220
I don't know.

290
00:19:07,220 --> 00:19:09,240
We can't see anything from here.

291
00:19:09,740 --> 00:19:12,450
Why? Why aren't they attacking?

292
00:19:12,450 --> 00:19:15,280
Is this whole thing just a
decoy to keep us pinned down?

293
00:19:15,750 --> 00:19:16,970
This is 02!

294
00:19:16,970 --> 00:19:18,500
The situation has become clearer!

295
00:19:18,500 --> 00:19:20,880
These aren't brigades.

296
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:22,990
They're what used to be brigades.

297
00:19:22,990 --> 00:19:24,000
What?

298
00:19:24,410 --> 00:19:28,520
The enemy was moving in tight groups,
within voice range.

299
00:19:28,860 --> 00:19:32,510
So it appears our artillery
wiped them out!

300
00:19:34,050 --> 00:19:38,000
So the Federation's brigades didn't
get enough training time, either?

301
00:19:38,970 --> 00:19:42,240
Everybody, looks like
we've been waiting for nothing.

302
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,150
Show 'em what we've got, everybody!

303
00:19:48,110 --> 00:19:51,420
Number one through number five,
sustained fire!

304
00:19:51,420 --> 00:19:53,620
Let's work enough to pay for that ammo!

305
00:19:53,620 --> 00:19:56,040
Panzer vor!

306
00:20:01,060 --> 00:20:03,330
Let's go! Time for the
infantry to go to work!

307
00:20:09,930 --> 00:20:12,410
The infantry have begun their assault.

308
00:20:12,410 --> 00:20:14,980
We will proceed to wipe out the enemy.

309
00:20:14,980 --> 00:20:18,820
Got it. I want you to take command
of Lt. Wüstemann's unit too.

310
00:20:18,820 --> 00:20:21,030
I want to fix their lack of training.

311
00:20:21,030 --> 00:20:22,710
Yes, ma'am. Immediately!

312
00:20:24,290 --> 00:20:26,730
That wraps that up.

313
00:20:27,420 --> 00:20:31,750
Looks like I might have
to rethink things.

314
00:20:34,590 --> 00:20:37,000
Good work, everyone!

315
00:20:42,250 --> 00:20:47,010
The Lieutenant Colonel is
giving us an innocent smile.

316
00:20:50,470 --> 00:20:53,450
First, very good work today,
Captain Meybert!

317
00:20:53,450 --> 00:20:56,070
I want to show my respect
for your talents!

318
00:20:57,810 --> 00:21:01,420
I was wrong about you!

319
00:21:01,420 --> 00:21:04,820
I hope you'll accept my apologies!

320
00:21:04,820 --> 00:21:07,040
Of course, ma'am!

321
00:21:07,470 --> 00:21:09,440
And you too, Captain Ahrens!

322
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,710
Your last charge can only
be described as impeccable!

323
00:21:12,710 --> 00:21:14,310
Thank you!

324
00:21:14,310 --> 00:21:16,070
And Lieutenant Wüstemann...

325
00:21:16,070 --> 00:21:18,030
I hope you'll grow into your role!

326
00:21:18,030 --> 00:21:18,840
Ma'am!

327
00:21:19,810 --> 00:21:21,480
As for Lieutenant Tospan,

328
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,080
I'm not completely satisfied...

329
00:21:24,340 --> 00:21:25,570
But that's okay!

330
00:21:25,570 --> 00:21:27,310
Make up for it next time!

331
00:21:27,310 --> 00:21:29,800
I-I'll do my best!

332
00:21:43,170 --> 00:21:47,700
Did you think I'd change my opinion
of you all after that performance?

333
00:21:48,870 --> 00:21:53,330
For better or for worse,
I'm a high-ranking military officer.

334
00:21:54,220 --> 00:21:56,820
If we win the war,

335
00:21:56,820 --> 00:21:59,020
I'll get all the credit I want.

336
00:22:04,990 --> 00:22:07,210
But if we can't win...

337
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,710
I'll be the one to take the blame.

338
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:17,260
Given that I don't know how much leeway
I'll get for just following orders,

339
00:22:17,260 --> 00:22:21,730
that means that other people's testimony
will be what determines my fate.

340
00:22:22,540 --> 00:22:28,270
So from now on, I must focus on
maintaining a good reputation and image.

341
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,540
Wait, where is that oaf,
Captain Thon?

342
00:22:33,540 --> 00:22:37,530
You're right. I haven't
seen a report from him.

343
00:22:37,530 --> 00:22:40,720
He was captured, or he's dead.

344
00:22:41,150 --> 00:22:42,370
Well...

345
00:22:42,370 --> 00:22:45,300
If he deserted, he gets a firing squad.

346
00:22:48,180 --> 00:22:51,220
All right, everyone, let's have a toast!

347
00:22:51,220 --> 00:22:52,590
To our fatherland!

348
00:22:53,070 --> 00:22:55,150
To the victory of the Empire—

349
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:58,090
No...

350
00:22:58,370 --> 00:23:02,090
To an early end to our war!

351
00:23:02,090 --> 00:23:04,600
Cheers!

352
00:23:17,590 --> 00:23:20,580
This... You're kidding, right?

353
00:23:20,580 --> 00:23:22,820
I'm afraid it's true.

354
00:23:22,820 --> 00:23:25,330
It's everywhere in the capital, I'm told.

355
00:23:25,780 --> 00:23:28,590
In the language of flowers,
a gladiolus means victory.

356
00:23:28,590 --> 00:23:31,720
And olives, supposedly,
are a symbol of peace.

357
00:23:32,390 --> 00:23:34,340
Propaganda is...

358
00:23:34,350 --> 00:23:35,070
"Peace is the greatest good"

359
00:23:35,070 --> 00:23:37,260
really scary.
