When it comes to physical damage, the Federal Army's fighter force has not achieved much success.

At least how many Zeon Army MSs were destroyed, the number in this sentence is not a huge number.

But how much of a force can play on the battlefield has never been measured by the number of kills alone, and this time it was also the same, although the fighter unit of the Federal Army did not destroy many MSs, but achieved more gratifying results than destroying 50 or 100 MSs.

The Zeon attack was completely dispersed.

Frankly speaking, Rebier did not have great expectations for this attack, and only hoped to rely on this attack to gain as much space as possible, but he did not expect that the space that this attack fought for was directly maximized.

For example, I only wanted to draw a new R card, but I didn't expect a five-star limited SSR to come out as soon as it was issued.

This analogy is somewhat imrigorous, but surprisingly apt.

The arrows of the two fighters collided with the slightly scattered MS troops, and then penetrated them, constantly emitting colliding 'sparks', and every bit of spark was a life.

Among the peripheral MSs facing the Federated fighter forces, some MSs tried to intercept them, while others retreated towards their own troops, and when they sensed the departure of friendly forces, those MSs who tried to intercept also had to avoid the edge of the Federated fighter forces, so as not to fall into isolation.

When the MS on the periphery began to do this, the back of the MS in the center, even at the front, was exposed, and they had to retreat.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the formation of the Second Fleet began to gradually expand and recover to its original size like a sponge that had absorbed water!

MS undoubtedly has a great innate advantage over fighters, and as said before, even if the fighter unit of the Federal Army excludes the equipment factor, it has no advantage purely in terms of personnel quality, so why is there such a scene now?

The scene is too abrupt and even lacks realism.

And yet it just happened.

At the root of the matter, there is only one fundamental reason why the Zeon Army is showing such ugliness, and that is factional fighting.

Struggle is everywhere, as long as there are people, even if it is just two people, there must be different factions, which is difficult to let go of but helpless.

Speaking of factional struggles, the factional struggles of the Federal Army are already complex and chaotic enough, the struggle between the Space Army and the Ground Army, the struggle between the troops of the different member countries of the Ground Army, the struggle between continents, the struggle between the federal government and the governments of the member countries, the struggle between the colonial satellite garrison forces, and even the struggle between the Rebir faction and other factions within the Space Army.

However, the confusion and complexity of the Zeon side are still above the Federal Army, and the history of the Zeon Army is not long, but there are many factions in it that are reminiscent of the modern history of East Asia.

The people who believe in Daiken and those who believe in Zabi, the people who think that they are still good people in the Federation and the people who die in the Federation (pro-Federation elements do exist in the Zeon Army), the people who are the number one in the world and the big ships and cannons are the people who are the future trends, and there are also different military leaders or families who do not like each other, and even troops from different colonies, such as the contradictions between those born in Zim and those born in Mahal, and the contradictions and struggles between the Space Attack Army and the Assault Mobile Army.

In the final analysis, this is determined by the history of the Zeon Army, which was not a national army, but in the time of Zeon Dyken, composed of the private forces of various families, by the militia that was agitated, and by the Union Army who surrendered.

This determines that its independent and private nature is very strong.

The Zeon Army has always been regarded as having unclear functions and powers, no division between upper and lower levels, chaotic command and serious bureaucratic style, and the entire Zeon Army does not actually have a systematic command system, but is full of countless units at the same level that are only responsible to each army leader, and these army leaders are only responsible to the big bosses above, and the whole army presents a simple and crude three-level structure.

Just like the armies of Europe in the Middle Ages, the king had his own direct troops, and the nobles of all levels under the king's command, from dukes to knights, had their own direct troops, which belonged to individuals and not to the state.

To a large extent, this situation is not because the high-level officials of the Zabi family, such as Kilian, Jisilia, and Dozru, do not want to change, but because they are seriously ill and there is no possibility of solving it in a short time, in order to deal with the threat of the Federation that is close at hand, they also turn a blind eye to it for the time being.

This chaotic situation finally made Zeon suffer today.

If the surprise attack is successful and the attack goes well, such contradictions will not appear so quickly, because the victor can gain everything and cover everything, but when the attack is mired in a war of attrition, all kinds of contradictions will emerge.

No one wants to let themselves and their troops rush to the first line of attrition, but they don't want to stay in the rear, because staying in the rear is not meritorious, and for everyone, avoiding the first line, but staying in the second line that can stabilize the output is the best choice.

The same is true when facing the attack of the fighter units of the Federation Army, some people are on the periphery and have no choice but to face it head-on, some people are behind these people, and there is still room to go back, some people feel that their troops are in the best position, and the interception is left to others, but they don't want to give up their positions at all, and there are people on the front line who directly engage the Federation warships - they don't have time to think about it so much.

Individuals have their own opinions, and of course, this is the tendency of any army in all history, and the commander of the unit will choose to favor the choice of his own unit, so this is when the commander needs to be present, and they will force the troops to do what they don't really want to do.

I don't care about xxx, you have to take xxx or something for me before xx time.

However, the Zeon Frontline Commanders failed to take their responsibilities, not because they were too stupid to see what to do at this time, but because only their own part of the population would listen.

In fact, this temporarily organized special mobile brigade is quite strong in terms of combat power, but for various reasons-such as this surprise attack on Rebil's fleet, from intelligence to planning, the assault mobile force is dominant, but the main force is the troops of the Space Attack Army, etc., the bigwigs of the Zabi family can't even match this force with a supreme commander!

It's better to say that if such a person exists, he will come out and stop Lear when he is arrogatory, and because there is no one who is above Lear as a commander, he does not need to listen to anyone's orders.

The commanders below, whether they have 100 aircraft or only 20 aircraft under their command, regardless of whether their military rank is major or second lieutenant, the command position between them is completely equal and not subordinate to each other!

The situation that makes people dizzy when they hear it, but it is a helpless choice for the Zabi family bosses, for example, Lear, in terms of identity, he is only a lieutenant, and in terms of troops, he is only worthy of 30 planes, but who dares to put him under the command of a certain Zabi faction leader?

If you really count it, all his private troops are counted, at least at the level of an entire detachment.

Besides, his family can also explode at any time.

Who can command such a young master?

Previously, Kilian reorganized the commando team of the Ministry of Internal Affairs into the Zeon Gendarmerie Force, the fundamental purpose of which was to improve the situation as much as possible before the start of the war, but obviously, this move by Kilian was basically bankrupt under the joint resistance of military leaders at all levels (even Lear himself), and the war with the Federation was about to begin, and Kilian could only reluctantly acquiesce to the status quo.

To get back to the point, the current situation on the Zeon side is not that they don't know what to do, but that they dare not do it, and no one is so selfless as to let their troops bear the losses and let other troops reap the results.

After all, ordinary soldiers can't see the situation and don't mention it, and it's impossible for an elite of the command department of the non-commissioned officer school like Char Aznabul not to see what should be done.

Previously, the Union auxiliary fleet should have pursued when it retreated, but now when facing the fighter force, it should be divided to intercept so as not to affect the frontal attack.

Even in the stupid situation of a war of attrition with the Federation fleet as it is now, there is a more appropriate solution than maintaining the status quo, and that is to make up your mind to break through the box formation of the Federation fleet with all your forces, so that the casualties on the Zeon side will certainly increase, but it will also be able to break down the defense line of the Federation army more quickly before the chemical propellant is exhausted, and in this way, the so-called air attack of the fighters can be completely ignored, because these fighters cannot also rush into the defense line of their own fleet, in a very narrow way, And it will interfere with the situation of its own warship and the nimble MS melee.

But no one dared to give such an order, and no one dared to take responsibility for inflicting huge casualties on the troops.

It's completely different from a protagonist who is unscrupulous, but not afraid to take responsibility.

Of course, the fact that there is no one in the highest position among the front-line commanders does not mean that the unit itself is not restrained, in fact, at this moment there is such a person on the battlefield who can fully command all the Zeon troops, can order those troops to carry out tasks they do not want to perform, and can order the troops to suffer huge casualties and strong attacks.

This person is Cecilia Zabi, a woman who has mastered Zeon's intelligence system because of her sophisticated pre-war planning, and even planted a spy on Tyam's side.

A woman who is ambitious and has fully proven her worth, and at the same time has a 'noble' bloodline.

If it were her order, no matter what kind of family member or any powerful military leader, they would obey her order, and Kiren and Dozru believed it too, and in fact it did.

The premise is that if she is not on the flagship of the Minovsky particle coverage hundreds of kilometers away, but on the front line with the soldiers, at least out of the 'fog zone' where the signal cannot get out and cannot enter.

"Shh Char piloted his dedicated Zagu to dodge attacks from behind in a fraction of a second, and the red Zagu dodged the range of the Federation Swordfish fighter in a backflip-like stance.

"Where did you go?" The pilots of the Federal Army, who had suddenly lost the enemy's movements, subconsciously pulled up the nose of the plane.

However, at this moment, Char's Zagu had already crossed the back hemisphere of this swordfish, and before the Federals pilot could react to where this special red painted Zagu had gone, Char opened fire behind him.

“！！” The pilot was caught off guard by the sudden attack, and he screamed as he was swept up in the explosion of the fighter jet, and the fragments of the body pierced his back in a terrible way, and the whole person was instantly burned to charcoal.

If it's not in a vacuum, you might still be able to smell the fragrance.

Before Char could catch his breath, the next wave of attacks came again, and two Torrias fighters fired missiles at him in a joint position.

"What a hindrance!!" Char was annoyed.

The situation was not good, he couldn't help but think to himself, maybe there should be a more retreat here。。。。。。

The damage caused by the Federal Fighter Force to the Zeon MS unit was not large, but it made all the pilots feel a choked unpleasant feeling, and the feeling that things were not going smoothly when it was clear that they had absolute superiority in combat power was particularly irritating.

He was not the only one who felt the same way, but the black trifecta on the other side also felt the same way, in fact, although they were the commanders of the MS unit directly under Cesilia, they were not directing the battle but fighting on the front line, and their results along the way can be said to have a lot to do with the desperate battle of the black trifecta.

Seeing that the results of the battle were burned like this, the three hot-blooded uncles almost felt so angry that they were about to burn.

"Idiot? If you don't come to fight, you can't even look after us? "Aldiga's angry scolding, what is more annoying than the useless comrades-in-arms is the 'comrades-in-arms' who are dragging their feet.

"Gaia! It's no longer possible, let's retreat too! Seeing that the rest of the troops began to retreat or avoid the attacks of the Federal Army's fighter units, and the troops under the command of the Black Triple Star were in danger of being isolated, Matthew, who was more rational than Ordiga, couldn't help but say.

"If we don't leave, we'll be in danger!"

"Can't retreat!" Although Gaia didn't know the situation on the battlefield very well, he still knew this in his heart, if he retreated at this time, their efforts just now would be in vain!

And more critically, there is another point, Gaia glanced at the place where the chemical propellant capacity is marked in various data inside Zagu, the value is not optimistic, the consumption of chemical propellant in the black triple star fighting in the most fierce battlefield is naturally higher than that of the MS in the rear, and here it may be the best policy to postpone and accept supplies.

But retreat at this time, and the battle will no longer have anything to do with them.

Because if they retreat now, although they have not yet reached the limit, the small amount of chemical propellant left will definitely not be able to support them to compress the formation of the Federation Army again, if they do not want to face the dilemma of breaking down on the battlefield where artillery is flying, they can only choose to retreat, if they retreat, the previous credit will be in vain, and they may even have to bear the stigma of escaping.

Obviously, they are the ones who are always fighting on the front line, and Gaia will never accept such stigma.

And not only that, if this stigma is on himself, Gaia can still endure it, but if it affects the adult because of the retreat of the three of them, Gaia will not be able to accept it anyway.

Gaia, Aldiga, Matthew, the pilots known as the Black Trifecta are fighting to prove themselves, to prove their worth, their abilities, and to prove that they are in no way inferior to those sons and brothers who climb up by family background and face, and for them, the realization of self-worth is even higher than the belief in the spirit of Zeon and loyalty to the country.

All three of them were from civilian backgrounds, with neither a full military education nor a prominent family background, and it was difficult for someone like them to be promoted in the factional, heavily warlordized Zeon Army.

Even after showing their MS piloting talent and receiving the nickname of the Black Triple Star for their exploits, their condition is only a little better than that of ordinary soldiers, compared to the cadets who became ensigns as soon as they graduated, and the descendants of the family who could be promoted to the rank of colonel in a few years, and the proud sons of heaven who would still have someone to back him even if they made mistakes.

The three people who have no background and no way out, it is not surprising that they will be soldiers in this life until they die in battle or are discharged from the army.

How could this make the arrogant three people accept.

It's just that they are born a little better, why do they ride on us, this unwillingness gives them upward motivation, which is also the fundamental reason why they don't like Lear and Char, it's not that they don't know the abilities of these two, but they are different from each other.

But they can only be unwilling, and Zeon's system determines that it is almost impossible for them to get a fair evaluation on their own strength alone.

Gradually, even the black triadium itself slowly despaired.

Maybe I won't be able to get ahead for the rest of my life.

But for such three people, the lord gave them the opportunity to prove themselves.

That's Cecilia Zabi.

Not only did Cecilia recognize their performance in the Battle of the Rainy Sea, giving them fame, money, and women (considering that this is exactly what they used to motivate their subordinates, it can be said that it is a kind of cause and effect), but also secondly, Cecilia gave them respect and future, not only made the three people who had not been promoted for a long time become officers, but also handed over their own cronies MS troops to them to lead.

Although Gaia is a man of little learning, he is more persistent than many Sven scum who read poetry and books, and he understands what it means to repay his kindness.

At this moment, I'm afraid that even the obsession of proving himself has been put behind him.

He fought with all his heart and soul to defend Cecilia's reputation, ignoring that it was Cecilia's own absence that made the battle worse.

"Aldiga, Matthew!" Gaia suddenly felt a dry mouth: "We can't retreat. ”

"We have under the command of His Excellency Cecilia's cronies, and if we retreat, we will discredit Your Excellency," Gaia made an almost difficult request to his two close friends, "Please, join me。。。。。。。 ”

He hadn't figured out a solution, but he wouldn't back down, and even if he had to die here, he wouldn't discredit Cesilia.

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ordiga's rough but sincere laughter: "What are you talking about, Gaia, isn't it a matter of course that our black trifecta is the strongest combination of the Trinity and Zeon?" ”

"Our black triple star, no matter where we go, we advance and retreat together!"

"That's right," Matthew said, too, "and you are not the only one who has received your favor, and you are not the only one who has the consciousness to dedicate your life to Your Excellency!" ”

"Don't underestimate us, Gaia!"

Really。。。。。。。 Two stupid people, Gaia only felt a sour nose, but he didn't want to cry, the big man was embarrassed to cry around, on the contrary, he couldn't help laughing: "That's what I said, I'm sorry, I'll invite you to drink after I go back, and as much as I drink, it's mine." ”

"Oh! You're ready to empty your wallet! ”

"It's not just wine, it's women, women! Without a woman, no matter how expensive the wine is, it doesn't taste good! ”

"As long as you can find it, take your pick!" Gaia shouted loudly.

Instead of retreating like the rest of the troops, the Black Trifecta stepped up their attack, and although their battle did not stop the Federalists' recovery, it also slowed down their recovery.

But that's all, their forces alone are obviously not enough, and now that most of the troops have retreated, Cesilia's personal MS forces are not enough to change the tide of the battle.

Seeing the Federation Army adjusting its formation little by little, Gaia couldn't help but start to get agitated.

What should I do? What should we do now? Such thoughts tormented Gaia repeatedly, but he was only an ace pilot, and after all, he had no experience in commanding battles, and even if he tried to break his head, he couldn't find a way to change the situation.

He was helpless except to understand that he couldn't go on like this.

If only Rebir had died, and then the Union army would collapse without a command, he thought about what was actually nonsense in detail, and suddenly had an idea.

That's right, it's good to kill Rebier, his heart is full of blind confidence, and he doesn't think about how many troops they need to lose if they want to kill Rebir surrounded by federal warships in all directions, and even their own safety cannot be guaranteed.

He had only one thought.

As long as we kill him, our reputation, your honor, and the victory of the war will all be gone!

This may be because God can't bear to see that those who work hard can't be rewarded, but Gaia's simple and crude ideas are unexpectedly the best choice on the battlefield at this moment.

Assault, and melee with the Federal Army.

Prevent them from regaining formation and avoid engaging the Federation's fighter forces.

"Aldiga, Matthew!" Gaia took a deep breath: "Listen to me. ”

He didn't ask for help, because he was sure that the two of them would help him unconditionally.

"Since we can't retreat, then let's turn around and attack the center of the Federation!"

The two didn't reply, and Gaia was a little worried about whether they were frightened: "As long as we kill the general, no matter how many warships the Federation Army has, they will lose!" ”

"I know it sounds 。。。。。。"

"Isn't it very good, it is exciting to think about cutting off the head of a general among so many people." Ordiga laughed.

"That's right, this is the battlefield where our Black Triple Star is famous, the head of the enemy general, is there a more suitable trophy for us than this?"

"Such an honor can't be touched by others, this is our black triple star!"

"Let's do it, Gaia!"

"Present Rebil's head to Lord Cecilia!"

"Okay, that's it, let's get moving!" Gaia said he would do it, and he began to give orders to his subordinates, and the whole army was about to attack in depth with the Federation army in a ball!

However, at this moment, Matthew suddenly said to Gaia: "I really didn't expect that little young master to really do it!" ”

Gaia was at first dazed, then turned to admiration.

Because he saw that the part of the force that had been entangled with the First Fleet had broken away and rushed towards the other side of the Second Fleet.

At the head of the pack is the yellow body, Zagu Thunderlight.

"Quite capable, Lieutenant Alkerstein," Gaia did not use the title of little master anymore, which meant that he truly agreed that Lear was not the kind of incompetent rich kid, how difficult it was to penetrate the defenses of the First Fleet head-on, and that he had been entangled with the Second Fleet for a long time, and that the attitude of the troops around him to protect themselves was also in stark contrast to Lear, who had completed such a difficult task: "We can't be left behind!" ”

"Assault, for Zeon, for Lord Cecilia!!"

"Assault !!" ”

Ironically, although Lear kept shouting for Reybil's head, he actually aimed to save Reybil's life.

He paid even the most precious thing for it.

He never imagined that on the other side of the battlefield, there would really be a team of aces targeting Rebir's head.

It is not impossible if the Black Trifecta did realize their idea, not only is the Black Triad closer to Reybir than Lear, but on the other world line, it is the three of them who have captured Rybier.

If they really killed Reybil.

What is it like for Lear, who has made such a great sacrifice but still failed in the end?

Fate is ridiculous.

As the crowd moved, the battlefield continued to move, and Lear swooped in the direction of Raybir from Char's direction, trying to force the general away from the battlefield.

On the other side, the Black Triple Star launched a surprise attack targeting Rebil's head.

It seems that this battle will end with the completion of one of the objectives.

However, at this moment, another unexpected thing happened.
