On February 14th, PLANT Yurius around the city.

At 15:49, the United Earth Fleet departing from the Ptolemy Lunar Base began to attack PLANT, and a large number of Möbius MAs took off from the carrier ship and went straight to the colonial satellite group of Julius City, of which three modified agricultural satellites were the main attack direction.

After the MA troops departed, the follow-up warships moved up in a box-shaped formation to cover the MA troops with firepower.

The Zaft army seemed to have prepared for this attack, and the MS team marched in turn to intercept the MA forces, and the Lauraxia-class fleet formed a final line of defense in front of the three agricultural satellites.

At 15:56, the MA troops encountered the MS troops of the ZAFT army, and the two sides exchanged fierce fire.

The Coalition Army had an overwhelming numerical advantage, but it was weak in the war situation.

The MS units of the Zaft Army adopted a scattered posture, using the mobility of the MS as a unit to continuously carry out electric shock warfare on the periphery of the combined MA troops, and cooperated with tacit understanding to play a perfect wave offensive.

All MAs that launched a pursuit when the Zaft army broke away with one blow were mercilessly annihilated by the next wave of MS troops.

The almost one-sided posture changed after the Combined Fleet caught up with the battle line, and the Combined Forces changed their tactics and no longer adopted the old naval era tactics of separating battleships and MAs, and let the remaining MA forces fill the fleet's box formation, forming dense anti-aircraft firepower, and then pressing on the defense line of the Zaft Army in one fell swoop.

This method of operation effectively restrained the play of the MS mobility of the Zaft army, relying on the numerical superiority and formation, the battle situation that was originally inclined to the Zaft army was reversed.

At 16:27 a.m., the Zaft Army, feeling that the final defensive line had been shaken, sent out its reserves.

An MS force, composed entirely of elite pilots, broke through into the Combined Fleet under the concentrated cover of the fire of the Zaft fleet.

THE UNIT WAS FULLY EQUIPPED WITH A LARGE AMOUNT OF ANTI-SHIP FIREPOWER GINN, GATEUS 500MM RECOILLESS GUNS AND VARROS GAY. These two weapons make up for the MS's lack of vitality in the face of the space-time organic power of the battleship, and the breakthrough of this force has caused a large number of Combine warships to lose their combat effectiveness, or be sunk, or be damaged and retreat in a short period of time.

The Combine's fleet was staggering, but the Zaft army had no room to push back, and the side effect of the high firepower was the reduction in the duration of the battle, and the MS unit composed of elite pilots had to retreat to resupply after a brilliant victory.

In the midst of such a stalemate, the battle began to become very chaotic.

From time to time, MA or MS will turn into a cloud of fireworks in the universe under attack, and these countless balls of fireworks decorate the starry sky near Julius.

If you look at it from a distance, it will be a very beautiful view, but behind it is the loss of countless lives on the battlefield.

At seventeen hours and five, the battlefield became more and more chaotic, and it was under such circumstances that the combined MA troops once again set out to assault the final line of defense of the Zaft army.

This change once again caught the Zaft army by surprise, the numerical superiority of the Combine Army played a role here, the relatively small number of the Zaft army has always been in full force at the beginning of the battle, and the defect of the militia system in command is that the troops cannot be effectively rotated, and it is clear that the adjusters have a physical advantage over natural people, but the pilots at the front are very tired.

On the other hand, although the Combine Army fought ugly, the efficient command and execution of the regular army allowed the pilots of the MA unit to get a short but effective rest all the time.

Therefore, in this assault, the MA troops played well and penetrated into the final line of defense.

Although all Zaft pilots were ordered to pay attention to the MA troops' attacks on satellites before the war, the MS troops at this time were powerless in the face of the MA troops' infiltration.

At the critical moment, the MS unit composed of elite troops was resupplied and dispatched again, stabilizing the final line of defense.

But after all, it was still a step too late, and a squad of three Morbius MAs sneaked up on Julius VII through the final line of defense.

"For a blue and pure world."

The pilot of one of the Mobius, silently chanting a seemingly noble slogan, pressed the launch button of the nuclear bomb.

The nuclear bomb hit the Yurius VII agricultural satellite with a blue tail flame.

In the aftermath of the dazzling nuclear explosion, the massive Julius VII began to disintegrate due to the devastating damage.

The sky shattered, the earth tore apart, revealing a dark galaxy that devoured people's lives.

There were constant unequipped adjusters, civilians, and the disintegrating Julius VI was thrown out of the air leaking and scattered satellite debris.

Half of them died on the spot due to a collision with satellite debris on the way, and the remaining half of the 'lucky ones' were exposed to a vacuum without any life-sustaining equipment, and 'drowned' in the sea of stars in endless pain.

The disintegration of Julius VII not only shocked the Zaft army, but also fell silent on the Combined Fleet.

There was an eerie silence on the battlefield for a moment, and the combined fleet, which was the first to reflect, immediately began to retreat, and the MA troops were behind.

After that, the Zaft army reacted to the rage, and the MS drivers on the front line spontaneously launched a pursuit without orders, killing the red-eyed and annihilating the MA troops left behind by the joint.

But there are also sane pilots who carry out rescue work.

Even if it's one!

They flew to Julius VII with the intention of rescuing their compatriots who were struggling to die.

But the disintegrated Julius VII blocked their rescue operation, and the constant ejection of satellite debris was very dangerous even for the MS.

In the end, no one was able to save them.

————

One hundred and thirty-five thousand seven hundred and eighty-one people, this is the final official count of the number of people killed on board Julius VII by PLANT.

After receiving Yura's information, the PLANT side carried out an emergency evacuation of the personnel on the three agricultural satellites, and had the ZAFT Army strengthen the garrison.

However, due to the tight schedule, the evacuation did not go well, and in a short period of time PLANT was unable to dispatch enough ships to transport civilians, and the evacuation was halted with the attack of the Combined Fleet.

The government gambled its last hope on the Zaft army, but in the end it failed to prevent the tragedy from happening.

Yura, who was in Orb, got the news at the first time and tried her best, but in the end she couldn't save them.

But compared to the more than 240,000 people in the original book, it is already a relatively good result, and the uncomfortable Yura can only deceive and comfort herself like this.

At least Patrick. Sarah's wife, Noah. Sarah's absence from the death list is barely a blessing in disguise.
