Inside the Alliance High Council it ended up becoming a shooting war with words between Cornelia and Rebello on the invasion. But after it recieved the massive request for supplies from the front line, the High Council was thrown into even greater chaos. Those that followed Cornelia Windsor into continuing the war were Phillip Christiano, Sanford, Alfred Manning, and Frank Snow.

On the other side sat Rebello, Rui, and Trunicht fighting them in the opposition.

"Is there no limit to this? The Empire intends to destroy the Alliance's economy. To use their own citizens as a tool is an abominable method. Our fleet, beyond just doing this duty of liberation and relief can't help but acknowledge that it is and efficient method. We must withdraw the troops soon." Rebello said as Huang Rui also added in with Trunicht and and the Chief Clerk Amir Shariff.

However the zealous idiot that was windsor had to come in. "I'm opposed!" This shocked even the Defense Chairman. "If our fleet can save them from starvation, it is inevitable that their hearts will refuse the Imperial government and make them lean towards the Alliance. What is the chairman's opinion?"

Sanford then speaks. "Until some results come from the frontline the matter must be framed by the fleet's movements. If we withdraw  the trrops now, the expedition will probably become a public laughingstock as a symbol of stupid government action and waste."

'But at least the didn't die because of a fucking idiot,' thought Rebello.

"In the end, it means that the Council will lose support from the people and be defeated in the next election. Let's make this to a vote. To those in favor of pulling the troops and those opposed." Says the Supreme Chairman Sanford.

The other added in and the vote was then in an order of 4-5-2 vote the 4 members of the opposition were those of Rebello's party and the 5 were the former 5 including Windsor. The last 2 abstaining of the vote.

"Lieutenant, please contact Vice Admiral Ulanhu of the 10th Fleet." Says Yang to Adjutant Greenhill as she gets the line open and sees the older vice admiral without his beret on as he was exhausted.

The computer buzzed, [communications established].

"Vice Admiral Ulanhu, I'm glad to see you looking so well."

<"Oh, Yang Wen-Li. This is rare. What's the matter?">

"Do you think we should pull out, surrendering the occupied territories?" He asked as Ulanhu is cool headed, but also reasonable.
