Chapter 54: The Obu Liberation Operation (5)
After rounds of battles, in the face of the powerful forces of the combined forces, the balance of victory tilted towards the United Earth without any suspense.
The coastal position of Hatsushima Island is lost!
The city of West Arara has fallen!
The largest port city in the north, Ruhr Balon, was almost razed to the ground!
Enemy shadows have been found on the outskirts of Silt Neng Kiru!
The loss rate of Cooligo Island is 56%! Sixty percent of the defenders were routed!
One bad news after another was conveyed to the Orb Defense Headquarters, and an atmosphere of defeat slowly brewed in the Ministry of Defense, and Uzmi, who was in the position of the Supreme Commander of the Ministry of Defense, angrily punched the command board, "Did the Combine Army even close all the communication channels?" ”
"Uzmi-sama, we should have prepared for a long time, what should we do next?" Minister Lund Kaia Sahak asked.
Uzmi turned his head, his sharp gaze shining on the expressionless Lund's face, but he didn't say anything to him after all, closing his eyes, years of political experience reminded him that he had to deal with the issue of the Earth United Army first.
"Order all the troops to retreat to the defense of Sileng Kiryu in a planned manner!" Uzmi ordered in pain.
"What? What about the Dawning Society? Do you want to give up the Dawning Society? ”
"There are many large multinational corporations on Cooligo Island!"
In the midst of a burst of discussion, Uzmi's brows tightened even more, shook his head, and walked out of the Ministry of Defense command hall.
Walking into his private conference room, Shirin, who had already assisted the Archangel in repelling the three Gundams and returning to rest, was sitting inside.
Uzmi walked over to the main seat and gently pulled away from his seat, "General Shirin, I've been waiting for a long time. ”
Shi Lin hurriedly got up and replied, "Don't dare, I just came." ”
"Regarding the ...... that His Excellency General said earlier"
"Representative Assha, don't worry, we seem to have other guests." Shirin smiled at Uzmi.
"What?" Uzmi was surprised.
Two people walked in the side door of the conference room, and it was Orb's Defense Minister Lund Kaia Sahak and Speaker Yabuki Mari.
"Sure enough, it's the two of you." Uzmi said with a relieved expression.
The door to the conference room suddenly opened, and the two Uzmi guards were tied up and pulled in and thrown against the wall, and several Ministry of Defense guards stood around the conference room with expressionless faces.
"What are you going to do? Treason? Seeing this, Uzmi asked sharply.
"Rest assured, Lord Uzmi, we just want to have a good talk with you without being disturbed, and first, I would like to ask who this gentleman sitting next to you is?" Lund asked with a smile, and as soon as he finished speaking, one of the guards took out a silenced pistol and pointed it at the back of Shirin's head.
"Aren't you guys in the same group?" Uzmi asked curiously.
"Lord Uzmi is really joking, so should our great Asghar represent also destroy Orb's faith with his own hands?" Lund said curiously.
Shirin, who was just about to stand up and speak, was pressed by the guard behind him on the shoulder, and the muzzle of the gun was pressed against the back of his head, "Relax, this gentleman, can you tell me your identity?" Lund asked, turning his gaze to Shirin.
"I hate being pointed at a gun like that, it's still like this...... It's time for you two to come out. As soon as Schilling's words fell, one of the guards closest to him, who was standing around, quickly pulled out the silenced submachine gun on his waist and shot the person behind Schilling through the head, and the special bullet directly penetrated the head, but the person's head did not explode, and he fell to the ground upright.
Several guards around the area also quickly took out their guns and pointed them at Lund and Truth.
A burst of applause rang out softly, and a man and a woman walked into the conference room, "Sure enough, he is worthy of being the commander of the Top-Martial Death Force, and this composure is enough to make me more confident in our plan." ”
"Mina?" Seeing who was coming, Lund Kaeya shouted.
"Uncle, long time no see!" The person who came was none other than Lund Mina Sahak of Sahak's family and Leonard, the bodyguard.

Asian Federation, Nanjing, Almak House
A sprawling courtyard-style house in the style of an old calendar, where a high-profile dance party is held today.
This is the marriage ball between the Minister of Defense of the Asian Federation, Liphonz Almak, and the Hirokawa Wang family, a large family that has been inherited for more than 1,000 years.
As a thousand-year-old Wang family, the various arrangements and arrangements for the ball are simply strict to the point of harshness, and as a man, Liphonz is also happy to hand over the arranged work to the Wang family, after all, he doesn't have so much heart to do these things.
With the official establishment of the Reform Party, with the efforts of the political party genius Wang Shi, the Reform Party has already surpassed the Senator Party controlled by the major families to become the largest party in the Asian Federation, in the latest round of public opinion statistics, the support rate of the Reform Party has exceeded 68%, and the support rate of the Senate Party, which has been suppressed by many times, has dropped to 13%, only 2% higher than the Baath Party behind it.
From the ministers of civil affairs, transport, and finance, who were the first to arrive today, it can be seen that these originally centrist people have been mixed up with the change party.
This was followed by the Chief of the General Staff of the Ministry of National Defense, the Deputy Minister of Defense, the President of the Central Science and Technology Commission, the Minister of Industry, and the Chairman of the Reform Commission.
This is the first time the mysterious chairman has appeared in such a public setting, and Devan Nova, the most silent changemaker in the Changemakers Six, has taken this crucial position under Lifonze's orders, and he, a techno-changer, handles the affairs of the Changemakers Council well.
The last to be present were the representatives of other families, the Chu family was still represented by President Chu Zheng, and the Song family sent outstanding figures of the younger generation Song Tian, such as other Ouyang Guiyun, Pang Zhongyue, Dongfang Weiming, and so on......
After the arrival of various bigwigs, representatives of other consortia, directors of state-owned enterprises, general managers, etc., also stepped into this huge ball, each forming a variety of communication circles.
If the Atlantic Federation or today's ball is a shot, it may be able to see the news of the collapse and disintegration of the Asian Federation, the number one superpower, tomorrow, so the security level of this ball is basically the fortress level, and the A-LAWS Capital Guard, a special maintenance force force defense unit stationed in Nanjing, has even set up a large GN force field defense device within a radius of ten miles to reach the defense level of defense against strategic nuclear strikes.

"Mina? Aren't you still in the Heavenly Pillar? How would you ......" Lund Kaeya could barely believe what his eyes saw of the tall figure.
"Uncle Kaeya, if I were still in the Heavenly Pillar, the interests of the Sahak family would be betrayed by you." Mina said with a smile.
"Okay, let's put aside the internal affairs of your Sahak family for a while, and then whatever you want, let's talk about our current affairs first, I believe that Representative Ashar is also in a hurry, right?" Shirin said with a disdainful glance at Lund Kaeya.
"General Shirin, can you tell me about the conditions of your Asian Federation?" Uzmi, who had been ignoring the development of things, spoke.
"Lord Uzmi, it's up to me to speak, after all, our Sahak family is also from Obu, and we will stand on Orb's side for the sake of Obu's future." Mina looked at Shirin, and the other nodded.
"What kind of Orb are the betrayers of the country?" Uzmi said, slapping the table.
"Lord Uzmi, please distinguish the difference between treason and patriotism, do you still think that the principle of neutrality that you have always adhered to is patriotism?" Mina said with a stern expression.
"Then is it true that you collude with other countries and sell military secrets to be patriotic?" Uzmi said angrily as he looked at Lund Kaeya, who was already too frightened to speak.
"There are no eternal friends between countries, only eternal interests, just like Uncle Kaeya and Uncle Truth, although they sold military secrets to the Atlantic Federation, do you think that even if they didn't do such a thing, the Atlantic Federation would not be able to attack Orb?" Mina pointed to Lund Kaeya and said to Uzmi.
"If you don't adhere to the principle of neutrality, Orb will only be tied to the chariot by one of the parties until it is destroyed, don't you understand?"
"This is a war that everyone can't avoid, just like the more afraid of death on the battlefield, the faster they die, if we Ob want to take our future into our own hands, we must bet, put our chips on the side that is most likely to win, yes, this is a big gamble, the bet is our Obu's national fortune, those who want to bet not to watch from the sidelines have been invited to play, the United States of South America, the end of the unified institutions of South Africa, don't you see?" Mina said earnestly as she looked at Uzmi's expression.
Uzmi closed his eyes, opened them later, and said, "Do you think the Asian Federation is the direction we should bet on?" ”
"At first, I thought the same as Uncle Kaeya's, but after the First World War in Alaska, I changed my mind, the Atlantic Federation is a country with no bottom line, if we follow them, we Orb will be the next Eurasian Federation, and now even the Eurasian Federation is separated from the Earth Union, isn't it? The current time of the Earth Union is the weakest time ever, and the best time for us in Orb! Mina saw Uzmi's loose brow, and her heart was faintly settled.
"Ahem, okay, presumably by now Representative Asgha will also have to think about it, let's talk about the situation of our Asian Federation, maybe you don't know yet, the Guam base of the Atlantic Federation has been secretly transferred to our Asian Federation, and I just received news in the morning that the Hawaii base of the Atlantic Federation was attacked by terrorists, and unfortunately it was charged by terrorists." Shirin said with a shrug.
"What do you say? Terrorist? How can it be! Lund Kaeya, who had not spoken, suddenly stood up and shouted.
"Still don't understand? The back of the Combine's fleet attacking Orb has been cut off, and it is believed that retreat is their only option. Shirin said with a smile.
Uzmi also looked at Shirin, slowly weighing the truth of what Shirin said, making sure that he had no need to deceive himself, and said, "So, the crisis of Orb will be resolved in this way?" ”
"Who is sure, it is possible that the red-eyed Combine will not retreat and will die with you, but the red-eyed Combine may be able to do anything, and it is not surprising that the massacre or something." Shirin said lightly.
"You ......" Lund Kaeya next to him was pointed at the head by the guards behind him before he could finish speaking.
"And our Asian Federation has the Pacific Fleet stationed at the base in Guam, and it can leave at any time, and it only takes two hours to come to Orb, which is much faster than Zaft in Capantaria." Shirin continued to laugh.
"How about it, Lord Uzmi, the future of Orb is in your hands now, we choose to convince you instead of accusing you, it is enough to see that we are very sincere, we need your cooperation!" Mina asked.
"Remind Representative Asgha that today is a festive day for our Minister of Defense, Lord Lifonz, and I am very anxious to return home, so please hurry up and decide, your decision may also make today a festive day or a ...... for Orb," Schilling interjected.
"Do I have a choice?" Uzmi said helplessly, and his majestic face seemed to have turned into an old man with vicissitudes of life in an instant.
