---------------------------------------------- body dividing line------------------------------------------
Before that war, I was just another pilot in the cockpit, and I never wanted to be a leader, even as a battlefield leader, which was just a simple battle for me. If there was even the slightest hint of "leadership" in my actions at that time, it was just a simple set of leadership philosophies--- leading by example.
You have to understand that for the battlefield, leading the way is absolutely effective only in one situation, and that is in a situation where your side is in a state of superiority. But that battle was different, we were at a disadvantage in all aspects, on all levels. A leading MS Troop Commander may let his subordinates perform at a normal level of combat, so that they do not fall into despair and fail to perform normally because of the disadvantage of the battle situation, which is to avoid a vicious circle. Or in a desperate battle, a mid-level officer, like I did at the time, would lead the troops to a defeat that will be remembered by history; Remember, a defeat.
In addition to having a cool head to think about tactics, another important aspect of a good leader on the battlefield is how to bring himself and the soldiers who follow him to a higher level than they think they can do. In this way, and only in this way, can the best results be achieved in the case of an imbalance in the equation of war.
Of course, that's what you and I can say now as we sit down and talk quietly; Of course, this is something that I only understood after all these years. At the time, I didn't understand, first of all, I didn't have time to think about it, because when the first particle beam grazed your cockpit, politics and philosophy flew into the unknown corner of the universe. I didn't even understand what that feeling was, I just felt an inexplicable feeling of suffocation.
But, hehe, it may be a little strange to say that, but ... In the desperate situation where the same "greatness" could not move into the future ... Yes, that's not the case where normal behaviour can break through ... In the midst of that desperate situation, someone helped to open a breakthrough for my soul, and because of that, I would respect them as a warrior.

"Not as Zaft... Wait, what do you mean?! "The ease of being rescued and the joy of the arrival of reinforcements quickly faded
Stepping back, Arlando suddenly came back to his senses.
"It means that these people in front of me knew that they would be dismissed as traitors by their own people, but they still came," the blue-and-white Gundam also leaned over after the stormy battle just now, and Amuro's voice sounded in Arlando's ears, "Didn't you just speak in a good tone?" ”
"No... No... It's just that... Arlando was a little unable to answer, and to the ears of Amuro and Kira, his voice sounded as if it had been intermittent due to poor communication.
But Arlando was really speechless, he seemed to understand something in an instant--- Zaft's not coming was actually a very logical thing, they didn't have any need to help this enemy who had been suppressing the inhabitants of the universe when the Earth Federation Army was at a disadvantage, right?
There is no conclusive evidence in history that the Governing Commonwealth, which placed itself above the people who sustained the world, changed its policy because of the favor of the First World War, and certainly no one can be sure that a century-old hatred will subside as a result of the First World War, and in fact it is questionable how much it will subside. There have been examples of love, devotion and even sacrifice for peace between hostile forces in history, but in the century of the universe, everything is business as usual... Considering the fact that the enemy who is now launching an all-out attack on the Earth Federation Army has not attacked any of the cosmic colonies, it is only natural that Zaft will not go to war.
Think about yourself, think about the new Zeon, how many warriors should have this idea now? How many of the Zeons are also war-weary, losing the support of hatred, but more of their homeland and loved ones, and how far can the warriors go with the fragile support of anticipation for an uncertain future?
Is that so, is that so, Allando's painful aftertaste in his heart---- the breath that permeated the battlefield that he felt just now turned out to be the reason... The Federation soldiers are tired, but the Zeon soldiers who follow them have a deeper reason ...
As if sensing the driver's state of mind, the brilliance of the Samus frame that had been silenced suddenly dimmed.
"Arrando, I've been watching you since your first battle," there were no angry words coming from the assault on freedom, and the two mechs with the name of Gundam quietly flashed with jets, blocking the front of the silence, and fired interceptive fire at the incoming missiles, "At the beginning, I was driven away by inexplicable anger, as if the anger accumulated by countless warriors in the years of fighting was superimposed on you; Then there was madness, and then there was the horror of Haman when he was in distress... Until the sheer horror that was revealed not so long ago, you've been possessed by something on the battlefield, Arlando! ”
"I... All the time ... Arlando felt as if he had been hit hard in the chest.
"It's not bad to fight for others, I'm also thinking now that I'm going to win for the sake of Lux and the child, this kind of difference that wants to support others is an absolute power, yes, but what, it's not right to be passive and become a container for a will other than your own will!"
"It is precisely because of this that the power of the new humanity will become a pure weapon in your hands, don't always passively transmit the will of others," Amuro's words came, "How about actively building bridges to the future with the ability to link souls?" It's like this. ”
The green light flew like silk, and then gently spread out, enveloping the three machines. Driven by the light that reflected his heart, Arlando narrowed his eyes filled with shame and fear, and the ghost pointed his beam rifle at the glowing Gundam. Tears drifted from the fact that the body had accepted reality earlier than the soul, and the spherical shape of the tears floated past his eyes, blurring the crosshairs, and the negative desire brought about by the shame and fear in his heart swelled and swelled, making his fingertips tremble on the trigger---
I don't know why I realized this now, that is, I have been acting completely on the premise of the will of others from the beginning, because of the inexplicable fear of the concept of "ease" and the impulse to desperately pursue a sense of responsibility made me enter a strange circle at the beginning, so later, after falling in love with Harman, everything is not clear: Haman She clearly knows what she wants, and Commander Char knows what she wants, but what about herself? It seems that there is no ideal for himself except to love her and help her achieve her dreams.
What do you really want and what do you want to do? Zeon's resurgence, no... Inhabitants of the universe ... Wrong!!!
The voice was swallowed up by Arlando's whimper, and the emotion that could not be spit out further turned into tears, and he punched the dashboard with a dull sound. On the battlefield far from those he once relied on, in moments of need to be relied on by others, the young new human stared into the great void in his soul and wept like a child.
The universe resounded with the cry of a child who had not had his parents by his side since he was a child.
[It's terrible, this feeling, because there are too many things that can be felt, and the feeling of forgetting oneself is as terrible as not having oneself, and new humans are very sensitive] Amro's thoughts came from --- light.
His short curly hair trembled in the light, and Arlando, who wanted to reach out, felt his consciousness leave his body, and he felt the illusion that he had floated out of the sea of induction in his awake state. It must be an illusion, even if it is a new human, it cannot be so free. Originally holding his body like a baby, Arlando stretched out his "body" in a realm unbound by the sense of time and space, carefully following Amuro's mind and Kira's mind as he wandered through the universe.
[After a year of war, because I didn't know what my will was, I didn't dare to face Lala's soul, so... Hehe... --- self-deprecating but warm "voice"
[Because I don't have an independent will.,So I was like that at the beginning of the war.,Sey,Frey,Millie,Everyone was the same at the beginning.,But then it was different.。。。 Even later, when Frey died, the grief that she could not handle was simply transformed into hatred for others ... 】
Arlando clutched his chest, twitching as if he had malaria.
[But then you are the same as you are now, you want to support others, find answers from others, and then be relied on by others, until you find the answers later] --- two voices said the same thing in unison.
"I think that living is the foundation of all change, and there is no change without life," Kira's light and shadow said---.
[I think it's wrong to blindly pursue revolutionary change and expect the world to change because of one event," --- light condensed in Amuro's thinking.
The light vanished, and their minds lost their bodies, dissolving and vanishing in Arlando's body, and he hugged his chest and pressed his helmet against the console, and suppressed sobs leaked out of his body; The universe was restored to its original darkness, and from the glowing sea of thoughts, Arlando returned to his physical body, which was still in the cockpit of silence.
"I think]/[I think], this is a word that I used to be extremely disgusted with, because it seems to represent arrogance, and I have always stubbornly believed that I am not worthy of using such words--- and it is only reasonable to cling to the people I define as qualified, and pursue what they think and think. But now ...
After the light dissipated completely, only cold starlight and fragments of the body wandered, slowly agitating and pulling. The gas cloud of the particle jamming bomb fired by Kelam --- a very common battlefield scene. But what's different, Arlando has a kind of world that switches in an instant, as if something in his body is reversed. With the universe as a background, an endless group of large fleets launched shelling at the same time. Hundreds of beams of light tore through the universe of the eternal night, and after shooting into the opposing fleets, countless circles of light of various sizes bloomed, flickering like the lights of the city at night. The line of fire of the counterattack passed through the fireballs that continued to bloom and disappear, and the second beam of light that immediately came in, and the staggered particle beams fired by the Mobile Suit heated the vacuum. The flash of light that spread over his head was so dazzling that he wanted to cover his eyes, and it also made Arrando's standing body shake.
To find, but there is no need to be lost and urgent because you can't find it for a while, now you just want to travel with her and pursue the future, and at the same time... At the same time, it is necessary to have more people with the same power--- and the sensing light around the Silence is re-lit when the mobile suit clusters on both sides are about to enter a mid-to-close dogfight.
"Accurate hits!"
Just as Arlando was gripping the joystick, he suddenly felt a red glow shining through his mask, and when he looked up, he saw that the independent monitor that had been specially installed in the cockpit before this battle was flashing three red letters repeatedly: [EAM].
The only person with the authority to send him this urgent operation message was Harman!!
At the same time, Amuro also saw an urgent text message from Brad in the cockpit: [Major changes in the battle situation, close to the mothership for accurate data transmission].
On General Rebil's flagship, the old man who has been controlling his emotions since the launch has completely forgotten to control his emotions and yells:
"Give me confirmation to the Federal Command and the Deep Space Space Exploration Agency!!"
The general's information was quickly transmitted, transmitted to the earth, and also transmitted to the deep space space exploration agency responsible for monitoring the universe. In the chaos of personnel running, the communications officer in charge of liaison shouted to the head of the agency:
"The Federation Space Fleet asks for another verification!"
"Let him wait for me, I'm checking with him!" Andrew, the head of duty at the agency. Cao turned his head back, then refocused his attention on the large screen in front of him, which was a row of heads of the big people on Earth.
"Dr. Cao, please... Say it again? ”
"Ulysses 37 Meteorite Group," Andrew said with one hand on the table and the other pointing to the stereoscopic star map, "the meteorite group observed a few years ago was supposed to pass harmlessly from the nearest point of Grid N37-S25-H7, but not long ago, the observatory found that many targets in the Ulysses 37 meteorite group had slowed down, and the entire meteorite group split into two large clusters. ”
"What do you say? Meteorite swarm slowdown?! Is that possible? ”
"The phenomena of the natural universe are naturally impossible, that is to say..."
"Director, you have to look at this," a scientist operating an optical telescope interrupted Andrew loudly, his arm flailing wildly at the few images he had just tuned to the big screen, "This is the second half of the cluster of meteorites that had been slowing down that was taken ten minutes ago, and this was five minutes ago... ”
"My God..." Andrew stood there, on the screen, on the two images, indicating the comparison between the back and front of the meteorite spots, the density of the two is almost like the difference between before and after the hornet's nest was stabbed, and the red letters [Earth Impact Orbit] lit up next to the image are more and more frightening.
