Pacific Theatre , Day Seven of United States Japan War

A week after losing Okinawa territory during their first battle against Britannia's Knight of One, suddenly the United States of Japan (USJ), The United Federation Nation (UFN) and the World are reminded with Britannia true power, it is such a devastating blow for the United States Japan seeing their territory was stolen from them under one day, but ZERO's last act by sacrificing Okinawa with Scorched Earth tactic has made the Britannia to re-plan their strategy. Now , even with Okinawa inside their hand, they can not benefited from Okinawa resource and use it as their independent temporary base. The damage is too far. It has no value and Britannia was forced to depend from Area 12 Formosa and Area 1 Honolulu's resource. The supply delivery will be far and not free from intercept, the plan to conquer Area 11 should be hastened.

ZERO's action which resulted in postponing a week has benefited the United States Japan, but this by no mean a good news. The EFN and The USJ who concentrated their whole force in Okinawa has realized this as a grave mistake and gave the whole control of military to Black Knights and ZERO. With the new revealing from the Knight of Ten, Luciano Bradley.

"In six day, the Tokyo Settlement will be tainted with blood."

Knight of Eleven or perhaps… we should call her as Yuuko Anderson, are now visiting Lelouch. A word that this boy has lost Okinawa worries her, but she was astonished seeing there is no worries or a slight of fear in his face. Seems that losing Okinawa is not his concern, or perhaps it was within his calculation, instead an expression of confidence surfaced in his face. Perhaps this is why the Knight of Eleven consent her proof of allegiance to him.

"You seem composed in handling this situation , your Highness."

"It seems like that." Lelouch give her a slight answer

"Perhaps losing Okinawa is no big problem for you. Is it because…. It is within your calculation…. Or .. you have planned it?"

"Why don't you tell me, Yuuko?"

"To sacrifice own base is not a really new tactic. Zhuge Liang done it in Xinye, while Pandhava thrown away Hastina. Even Britannia forsakes England." Yuuko calmly ponder.

"You seems knowledgeable. Now tell me … Yuuko… What will you as The Knight of Eleven do, if she is in my position…?

"Just like what you did in Okinawa, a Knight of Eleven will use Tokyo as the bait to sweep clean the enemies in one streak. This is the tactic or if I am allowed to say is the most efficient, rationale and economical strategy. If the main objective for the war is victory."

"… That is not a bad plan, Yuuko."

"You flattered me , My Prince. But I believe that My Prince, has a better strategy in his plan."

"…Is that so? According to your explanation, is not that the best strategy? To use own base as a bait to crush the enemies."

"But, My Prince. Have you forgotten the fact that those NipponJin is foolish and stubborn over sentimentality? Would they consider sacrificing their own land?

"…." Hearing this word, Lelouch fell silent.

"And, would they willingly let you destroy the heart of their nation? Please be wary My Prince, Lelouch vi Britannia."


Author Note:

Because of the recent disaster in Japan, i was reluctant to post this story. I can not give anything except my prayer and condolence.

Zhuge Liang burn Xinye when Cao Cao ordered Cao Hong and Cao Ren with 25000 menpower to conquer Jingzhou. This is the first time Zhuge Liang showed his wits in Romance of Three Kingdom.

in Mahabharatha, Phandava give their rights for the throne of Hastina to Khurava in order to resolves the conflict. But in the end, after the battle in Khuruksetra, Hastina was returned to Phandava.

About England... that is just my version of Code Geass Britannia's history which after Napoleon succeed in subjugating the England.

Knight of Eleven is a calculating, and rationale character. she judges based on objectivity rather then sentimental or emotional things. But even if she said so, the reason for her to join Lelouch vi Britannia was only known to her only, as she won't get any merits from joining him. It was such an complexity and contradiction for her character.
