Synopsis
Yang Wen-li adopts the Rosen Ritter into the 13th Fleet, and uses them as an integral part of his plan to capture Iserlohn Fortress. Rather than relying on overt military might, Yang plans to capture the fortress by subterfuge. Yang lures the Iserlohn Fleet away from Iserlohn with decoys; the fortress is then successfully infiltrated by the Rosen Ritter, using a captured Imperial cruiser.
