Chapter 10: Farewell, my friend

Chapter 10 of the first freshman farewell, my friend

After the last series of battles, the exchange of fire between Earth and PLANT has stopped, and we have been relaxed for a while. Nevertheless, the various classes of Zaft never let up, for the events that followed all made it clear that the present calm was only the last moment of calm before the storm.

A member of the PLANT Board of Governors who went to the Board of Directors was attacked by a terrorist act, resulting in the death of a member of the Council.

Although the blue cosmos claimed responsibility, it was clear that the members were behind it. PLANT stopped exporting supplies.

On February 5, at the call of the Secretary-General of the United Nations, PLANT and the Council held consultations. However, on this very day, a terrorist bomb attack occurred in the city of Copernicus, and the representatives of the Council members scheduled to participate in the lunar conference on the Earth side and the heads of the United Nations below the presidency of the United Nations were attacked and killed. In addition, the representative of the PLANT side, Ger ยท; Speaker Klein escaped death due to the failure of the aircraft to arrive late.

On February 7, the Atlantic Federation, as a representative of the Council, declared that the terrorist attack on the Lunar Conference was the work of PLANT, and concluded that it was a declaration of war by PLANT against the Earth and all natural persons.

In addition, United Earth, an international organization, was created to replace the collapsed United Nations.

On 8 February, the representative of the United Arab Emirates of Orb, Uzmi ; Nala ยท; Asghar declared that "no matter how events develop in the future, Orb will always adhere to the principles of independence and neutrality." โ€

All the members of the 1st Mobile Team of the Zaft MS gathered in the activity room bored.

Carter throwing darts; Benjamin and Campbell playing chess; Jim carried a plate of enough food for me to eat and drink all day, like a pig. I was half-lying on the couch squinting at the battle reports that had been sent in the past few days.

Because of the impressive results of the previous battles, I was appointed captain of the 7th squad of the 1st Mobile Team of Zaft MS, and I was in charge of ten members, all of whom were now entitled to some of the less classified battle reports. Of all the new recruits, I was the first to enjoy such an honor, which made Jim envious, and he was ready to get a squad leader to do it.

Carter threw all the darts out of the way after hitting the bull's-eye for the fiftieth time, and sat down next to me.

"Leonard, I heard that the Earth Union declared war on us yesterday, is this true?"

"That's right." I casually put aside the battle report and explained to him: "According to my estimate, the combined fleet will arrive in two days, and this time it must be a tough battle, and then we must all follow closely, and don't rush too fast, you know?" โ€

I said that last sentence so loudly that everyone knew I meant it for Jim, and everyone burst into laughter. Only the Lord was still at a loss to see what to do, sticking his head out of the mountain of food and staring at me blankly.

I was so angry at his idiot look that Carter tapped me on the shoulder and said, "Okay, don't be angry, you know he's like that, I'll tell him tonight." โ€

Benjamin suddenly said, "After this battle, we should be able to take a vacation." โ€

"I guess so." Campbell said in an uncertain tone: "Now that the MS forces have been exposed, our existence is no longer a secret, the key is whether the earth and PLANT will temporarily cease fighting after this battle?" โ€

"If we win, it's okay." Ignoring the skeptical glances of a few people, I had closed my eyes and started to think about how I was going to spend this holiday. A trip back to February City is for sure, five years have passed, is Amy still desperately trying to hide her age; Lilith didn't know if she had become pretty; whether Liao Jer, Schonede, and Cap are still fighting for Lilith; Luna's girl should have joined the army; Meiling should follow her, but she doesn't seem to be old enough. A lot of things to know, but it doesn't matter, as long as this battle is over, anything can be ...... Anything goes.

A romantic day, I can imagine how the teenagers and girls in the Junius 7 moon arrived at this day with anticipation and excitement. But in this festival that is supposed to be about love, we must use cold cannons and warships to greet the "guests" who come from afar. Then blood was used as paint to depict the "romance" that belonged to the military.

"It's not a good day to fight." I sat in a cramped cab and looked at the starry sky in the distance. Without the cover of the atmosphere, the starry sky shows us its truest side, and the distant and cold light seems to tell us how small human beings are in the universe. Although the stars in the universe are so beautiful and rich, all we soldiers who are filled with murderous intent are the fleets of the Earth Coalition hidden behind them. As the opponent lined up in formation and rushed over, the first line of defense of our army quickly exchanged fire with it.

The war officially began.

The other side discharged a U-shaped formation with heavy cruisers at the head, apparently trying to overwhelm us head-on with numerical superiority. However, the United Earth Forces soon realized their mistake, and although their heavy cruisers were capable of being strong ships and guns, they were helpless in the face of the extremely flexible and powerful MS troops, and the warships that took the lead were often bombarded by the MS from the dead angle that the ship's guns could not shoot at before they could touch the enemy. The commander of the United Earth Force was obviously a very experienced guy, and as soon as he saw that the situation was wrong, he immediately changed his formation, withdrew the damaged heavy cruisers into the formation, and then surrounded the outside with flexible high-speed ships to form a spindle formation, and finally supplemented by MA patrols four times the number of our army's MS outside the formation, the casualties were immediately reduced, and the two sides gradually fought both offensive and defensive.

Since the opponent's change of formation, their assault power has been greatly strengthened, and they soon broke through to the second line of defense, which is where we are stationed. I led a ten-person MS team to make up for it, and I couldn't wait for one person to be used by two people, but even then I was very busy. In just twenty minutes of the battle, I had already destroyed more than a dozen MAs, and I guess the entire squad had fifty of them.

When the battle finally came to an end, I immediately opened Carter's communication channel and asked, "Tell me, how are our people?" โ€

There was a silence for more than ten seconds on the other side, and I couldn't help but feel an ominous premonition in my heart.

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ Three people died, and Benjamin was also killed. โ€

I just felt a shock in my head, and I couldn't say what it felt.

Benjamin, the young and immature child; The kid who always messes things up; The child who always cries because he can't help us, but he desperately tries his best to do his meager strength. He died like this, there was no sign at all, and only a dozen hours ago he was with us discussing where to go on vacation. In just such a short period of time, the trajectory of his fate is completely staggered with us.
