It's been a few days since Artemis was raided by ZAFT using the stealth properties of Thunderbolt Gundam.

A fleet from Nova finally entered the airspace where Artemis was located, as He inexplicably and Feng Yunna waited eagerly.

At this time, at the head of this fleet is a space warship with a new design, which is very different from the current ships of the Earth Alliance, the Irish-class cruiser. Under the influence of Ho Inexplicable, this space battleship from the UC century has finally been able to appear in the world of Gundam SEED after more than half a year of development and manufacturing. And it is not alone, behind it, there are also two sister ships of the same appearance and shape, which serve as flanking guards to its left and right.

In an instant, the bridge of the Irish-class cruiser, which was leading the fleet in a high manner, was sending out a light signal towards the airspace where Artemis was.

"Report! A light signal was detected. Now it's being decoded! The CIC girl said immediately.

"Well, do it as fast as you can, and reply!" Feng Yun nodded, his eyes shining as he looked at the fleet on the screen that was slowly entering Artemis airspace in a triangular formation.

On the side, He inexplicably looked at the brand-new Irish-class cruiser and nodded with satisfaction. Originally, he thought that it would be very powerful for Nova to be able to build 1~2 Irish-class cruisers in this time. But when the Irish-class cruiser appeared in front of him, he found that the new star, and even the East Asian Federation gave him a big surprise. Beyond Ho's inexplicable expectations, the space fleet composed of three Irish-class cruisers can already give the East Asian Federation a lot of control in the next space battlefield. In this increasingly powerful situation, the free movement of the Tengyun will be further liberated. It is probably because of this that the upper echelons of the East Asian Federation will invest such huge resources and manpower to build **Erlan-class cruisers.

"Report! Now our ship has made contact with the fleet that entered Artemis. This fleet is our newly formed First Space Fleet, and the commander of the fleet is Rear Admiral Meng Heran. The CIC girl, who had already made contact with the fleet, spoke slowly.

"Oh? Commander Meng? I didn't expect the commander of the new fleet to be him! He was inexplicably slightly surprised. He didn't expect that Meng Heran, who was already a prince, would give up the new star and join the ranks of the commander of the new fleet instead.

Feng Yun laughed, shook his head and said, "Colonel He, you don't understand us. It is our wish to be able to form a space fleet of new warships, as well as new MS. After all, as a new fleet that has poured our country's tremendous efforts, it will not be set aside as an ornament. They must always go to the battlefield and go through the tempering of blood and fire in order to fulfill the expectations of the motherland and complete the tasks since their birth. ”

"Really?" After He inexplicably whispered for a while, he nodded and said, "I understand." In the final analysis, Commander Meng didn't sit on the side of Xinxing and wait for the enemy to attack, he wanted to take the initiative. ”

"That's it!" Feng Yun smiled and nodded.

A few hours later, the new First Fleet slowly entered Artemis' synchronous orbit.

And He Moming and Feng Yun, who had been waiting for a long time, also ushered in the officer corps of the newly formed First Fleet headed by Meng Heran.

"Hello sir!" He Moming and Feng Yun saluted at the same time.

"Hmmm! At ease! After Meng Heran looked at He Mo and Feng Yun for a while, he nodded with satisfaction and said. The basket you two poked out this time is not small! The upper echelons are all noisy. ”

Feng Yun immediately showed a hint of shame, while He Moyin shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and said, "We were just on a cruising mission when we happened to find out that Artemis was attacked by ZAFT. Out of the idea of mutual assistance, we took the best approach at the time. It's just that I didn't expect that before we even joined the battle, Artemis's high-ranking officers were killed in the battle. ”

Meng Heran kept a straight face, staring at He Mo's face full of frank expression for a while, and finally eased up a little. "Really? I've seen the report, and so have the video materials. Well, now I'd like to go and see the new MS you captured, and the pilot of the ZAFT. ”

As expected, He inexplicably had already put a lot of effort into the document before asking Feng Yun to submit the report to the headquarters, trying to make the upper echelons of the East Asian Federation accept that Artemis had been occupied by the Tengyun, so that the upper echelons of the East Asian Federation would come forward to fight with the Eurasian Federation. Judging from the attitude shown by Meng Heran at present, it seems that everything is going well. Of course, Meng Heran is understandable to ask to see Thunderbolt Gundam and Nicol.

You must know that there are a lot of ZAFT captives in the hands of the Earth Union, but the ZAFT pilots who are captured by He Inexplicably are not only red-clothed elites, but also have a layer of identity underneath. Nicol Amalfi, whose father was one of the twelve members of the PLANT Supreme Council, belonged to the moderate. I have to say that having captured such an important person, it is definitely worth letting Meng Heran make a trip in person. What's more, at the same time, He inexplicably also took advantage of Artemis's surprise attack and seized it, thus forming a de facto occupation.

Meng Heran and a large group of people silently stood in front of the scarred Thunderbolt Gundam, and after looking at it for a long time, he squinted his eyes and kept going back and forth between the Stamen Gundam and the Thunderbolt Gundam next to him. "Doesn't it seem like a big deal? By the way, I heard that this mechage can be invisible? ”

He nodded inexplicably and said, "That's true." It's just that the stealth system where Thunderbolt Gundam is located is not perfect. In stealth, phantom particles consume a lot. Theoretically, the maximum stealth time limit is about 80 minutes. ”

"It's only 80 minutes?" Meng Heran pursed his lips when he heard this, and then looked at the stamens next door. He stepped forward, raised his hand and patted the Stamen Gundam's foot armor and asked, "Is this Colonel He's special machine?" ”

"Yes. Its name is stamens gundam. ”

"Stamens? Could it be that its final form is a flower? Hearing this, Meng Heran blinked, looked at He inexplicably and asked with a smile.

Of course, he would not say Dendrobium Lan like that, so he said with an impassive expression: "This! I can't say for sure. ”

Meng Heran suddenly raised his hand and pointed at He Moming, he couldn't hold back a sentence for a long time, and finally he could only laugh out loud, slapped He Moming on the shoulder, and said fiercely: "I didn't expect Colonel He to hide so deeply, but it's okay." The strength of our East Asian Federation will also rise as a result. Later, the envoy fleet of the Eurasian Federation will rush to Artemis. You go with me to deal with them. Now that we've eaten this Artemis, there's no need to spit it out again! ”

The more Meng Heran spoke, the more firm he became, and after receiving instructions from above, he naturally knew what kind of attitude he should take to face the envoy of the Eurasian Federation next. What's more, in order to ensure that he would not be disturbed in the process of receiving Artemis, Meng Heran even pulled out the three Irish-class cruisers that had just come off the assembly line in one go, and made a strong reputation.

Suddenly, Meng Heran patted his head and said, "That's right." This time, I came here for another purpose. Colonel Ho, can you lend me that squad for the time being? ”

"Squad? Is it Shani? He thought for a moment and asked.

"Well, it's Shani. Their special-purpose machines have been developed almost. Next, it's time to enter the testing phase. According to me, since it is designed for them, then they should be the test pilots themselves. ”

He thought about it inexplicably, and then agreed to Meng Heran's request. After all, most of the course of action taken by the Tengyun now is secretly underhanded, and there are indeed few opportunities for head-on confrontation. Therefore, with the two Stamen Gundam and the Force Angel Gundam that can form a suppressive advantage over the vast majority of the Gundam SEED body, the three small powerhouses of Shani really don't have much chance of actual combat.

"Don't worry! When they complete the test mission, they will naturally be sent back to Tengyun. Meng Heran then added. For this, He is inexplicably convinced. After all, except for the Tengyun, the other newly built warships have basically been occupied by mass-produced mountain tigers.

Time passed in waiting.

As the two civilian ships approached Artemis' airspace, they lit up the Earth Union sign and asked the Tengyun, which was taking control of the airspace, to enter the port.

"How is that possible! I don't believe it! Artemis is of our Eurasian Federation! Now, please evacuate Artemis for me! After the envoy of the Eurasian Federation led a group of people to storm Meng Heran's temporary office, a roar also sounded.

He Heran, who was behind Meng Heran, couldn't help but pout, and secretly complained in his heart: "Bluffing guy." ”

Today, the new First Fleet, consisting of three Irish-class cruisers, is slowly cruising through the airspace along Artemis' synchronous orbit. With those two mere civilian ships, this Eurasian envoy can still burst out with such a powerful roar, which is really amazing!

He inexplicably ignored how Meng Heran was arguing with this strange envoy, and his gaze slowly skimmed over the crowd that followed the envoy of the Eurasian Federation. Suddenly, his attention was drawn to a young man with black wavy hair and orange-yellow eyes. After much scrutiny, He inexplicably vaguely guessed the true identity of this young man. If his guess was correct, then this man should be Cong Yun, who had a fateful relationship with Luo Qiuer.

The reason why He inexplicably made such a judgment was firstly his eye-catching appearance, and secondly, the time point when he appeared, and the way he appeared. In the Gaiden, since Cong Yun's impeachment and Rochel's separation in Heliopolis, the next encounter was at Artemis, that is, the place where the East Asian Federation is currently pinched and the Eurasian Federation is arguing.

If that's the case, He inexplicably really has to sigh. The fate of Cong Yun's impeachment and Luo Qiuer is really unclear. Now that the Red and Blue Heresy was taken away by He inexplicably in advance, Cong Yun's impeachment still appeared near Luo Qiuer.

"What a good pair of friends!" He inexplicably rolled his eyes, and an idea came to mind.
