The previous attack was made yellow by the high-profile arrival of the VF-25.

In order to preserve his strength, the desert tiger immediately gave the order to retreat. In the midst of the dust, the desert tiger looked through the telescope at the VF-25, which was escorting the Archangel back and forth, and muttered, "Is that a wing-changing aircraft?" According to intelligence, didn't it stay in space? ”

"Wing-changers? That's right! Captain! No large targets were found on the mothership's side just now, not even the shadow of a battleship. The adjutant immediately shouted in surprise.

The desert tiger smiled, put down the binoculars in his hand, and said with a bright eye: "Really? That's the wing-changer that has the ability to break into the atmosphere alone! Interesting!! ”

No matter how funny, the attack ended in failure. But a strong interest has already risen in the heart of the man, known as the desert tiger.

"Gone! If this continues, the rats will run out. ”

"Rats? Dawn Desert? ”

"Or else?"

As the night passed and the Barterfield team retreated, it was replaced by a group called the Desert of Dawn. Then, when Graham landed on the Archangel with a VF-25 and reported to Marlu, the convoy of people rushing out from behind the sand dunes also converged around the Archangel.

"It seems to be a resistance group. Will it be treated as one's own? Bucky Lulu, who was standing beside Maliu, withdrew her gaze from the letter in Maliu's hand and glanced at Graham without a trace.

After Maliu checked the letter in his hand, put it in his pocket, looked up at the motorcade on the screen and said, "Anyway, let's negotiate first!" Although the time when the other party appeared was after the battle, if it were not for Major Graham's intervention, I am afraid that the other party would be our side to get out of trouble. ”

Graham, who was on the side, immediately expressed his opinion. "Regardless of the captain's decision, the order I received is to protect the ship, and you, the captain."

"Huh?" Marlu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Is it the colonel's order?" ”

"Exactly." Graham admits it dryly.

For a moment, Malu remembered the difficulties she had encountered when she tried to dissuade someone from torturing Kira. After sighing secretly, Malu nodded and thanked him indifferently. "Well, thank you, Colonel He."

Immediately, Malu looked at Bucky Lulu. "I'll leave it to you. I'm going to take a trip. ”

At Bucky Lulu's answer, Mariu and Graham stepped into the elevator one after the other, and came to the door that connected to the outside world. Here, Mu and several soldiers with guns were already waiting here.

"Yo. Graham. I didn't expect to reunite with you so soon. As soon as Mu, who was familiar with himself, saw Graham, who was an old acquaintance, following Maliu, he greeted him as soon as possible.

"Hmm. I didn't expect that either. Things in the world are always so wonderful. Graham nodded, pulling his pistol from his waist and loading the bullet.

Mu Hehe smiled, turned his head sideways and said, "Although I would like to have a catch up with you, the guests outside are extraordinary!" ”

Graham smiled slightly, gave a thumbs up and pointed to Malu on the side, and said, "I'm not very good at this either. But we've got this captain here! My commander has a high opinion of Captain Marlew. ”

When Malu heard Graham's words, she was stunned, and said in disbelief: "How come? Did Colonel Ho mention me like that? ”

"In the name of bushido!" Graham solemnly assured that his words were not false.

For some reason, after learning what someone was saying about her, the solemnity in Maliu's heart gradually dissipated, and she began to calm down, and she was ready to face the resistance. Although there were some twists and turns in what followed, it was generally smooth. Through negotiations with the Desert of Dawn, the Archangel received help from the Desert of Dawn. In exchange, during the Archangel's stay in the desert, they must assist the Dawn Desert in repelling or defeating the desert tiger Baltfield, who threaten the security of the region.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that Kira, guided by fate, met the girl who was in a hurry on the colonial moon in this desert. And what was supposed to be a joyful moment of reunion was broken by the girl's anger. Caught off guard, Kira's newly recovered face inadvertently received a punch from an angry girl.

And this scene almost triggered the confrontation between the Archangel and the Dawn Desert. Thankfully, the next development was a relief to everyone. After all, after hearing the conversation between Kira and the girl, you will know that the two are familiar with each other. And it seems to be entangled because of the Strike Gundam.

Cagalli. This is the name of the blonde girl in front of her, wearing a thick waistcoat. After receiving a pink punch, Kira finally learned the girl's name from the mouths of others, and also recalled the situation when she met the girl. Therefore, this turmoil has passed. But it doesn't end so simply.

Negotiation completed.

The man who led the members of the Dawn Desert to appear on this sand dune, and also the leader of the Dawn Desert, Seb Aheman, was very happy to lead the Archangel towards the forward base of the Dawn Desert.

After the Archangel anchored, Seb led Malu, Bucky Lulu, Mu, and Graham into the underground command room of the Dawn Desert. And when Mu entered the underground command room, he unexpectedly found that the girl who was familiar with Kira seemed to have a not simple identity. It's just Mu's personal speculation. Because whether it was the girl, or the people around her, especially the Saibu, they disguised the girl's identity very well. On the surface, the girl looked like she was just a slightly more important cadre in the Dawn Desert.

And the environment of this underground command room surprised Mu even more. In this regard, Mu's exclamation, Sebu just calmly replied and dispelled Mu's idea of continuing to ask.

"This is a forward base."

At this moment, Graham, who was supposed to be the last to enter the underground command room, was attracted by a very familiar-looking figure.

"Are you Cong Yun impeached?" Graham stared at the figure for a while, but finally recognized the other person's identity.

"Huh?" The brown glasses reflected the light from the roof of the cave, and Cong Yunqi looked back. "You're Captain Graham? How did you end up here? ”

Graham, who didn't expect to meet an acquaintance, walked up very naturally, raised his hand and patted this acquaintance who had a very good taste, and said, "Major." I was promoted. ”

Immediately after, Graham looked around and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you searching for information in the universe?" How did you get to this side of the earth? ”

"Mission." Cong Yun said very directly. After being in contact with He Moming and others for a long time, he naturally knew that among them, there were no secrets that could not be discussed. It's just a matter of paying serious attention to your surroundings.

Graham looked at Cong Yunji's serious expression, and immediately thought about what was going on. Then he smiled and said: "I didn't expect that you would have a day as a courier!" ”

"It's a mission!" After glancing at Graham, Cong Yunjie added, "From your chief's mission. ”

Right! It's the task. It turned out that after Cong Yunqi broke up with Luo and his party, he received an encrypted message from a top-secret channel, a special commission from He inexplicably. Originally, after seeing the content of the commission, Cong Yun's impeachment didn't really want to go next. But when he thought about how his Blue Heresy Gundam was inexplicably sent, Cong Yun's impeachment was finally defeated in the favor that was too huge to pay off. Therefore, in this moment when supplies were just sent to the Dawn Desert, Cong Yunji, who was about to leave here, met Graham, who was also sent to Earth by He Inexplicably to carry out the mission of protecting the Archangel.

"Looks like we all have a boss who likes to mess around!" Graham shrugged his shoulders, then pointed to the passage leading to the outside and said, "Would you like to have a drink?" ”

Just as Cong Yunjie was about to answer, Bucky Lulu's voice suddenly sounded.

"Major! Major Graham! Where are you? The operational meeting is about to begin. ”

Cong Yunqi smiled when he heard this, looked at Graham and said, "It looks like the beauty has an appointment!" Major Graham, come for another drink next time! I don't think your chief will let us go with the Serpent's Tail like that. ”

Although Graham wanted to catch up with Cong Yun, under the influence of the soldier's blood, which had been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, Graham still made the right choice. "So, next time!"

"Waiting for you! Major Graham. ”

Although the two sides have reached an initial agreed alliance, there are various problems with the next battle arrangement. Judging from the intensity of the controversy, it seems that in a short period of time, the Archangel and the Dawn Desert could not agree on an operational arrangement at all. After all, the operational concepts of the guerrillas and the regular army are too different.

"Alas. What a distress! After finishing the battle meeting, Maliu, who had returned to the Archangel, looked at Bucky Lulu, who was still by her side, and said. Mu and Graham, on the other hand, left early, citing the need for rehabilitation.

"I didn't expect the battle plan of the Dawn Desert to be so chaotic. How the hell did they survive at the hands of ZAFT? "Baki Lulu, who came from a military family, immediately saw several fatal flaws in the battle plan made by the Dawn Desert. Not to mention, in the following careful scrutiny, more flaws were discovered.

"What about the guerrillas!" Malu sighed as she unconsciously raised her hand to touch the pocket of the letter with it.

Keen to notice Maliu's strangeness, Bucky Lulu quickly found an excuse to leave. Of course, after coming back to his senses, Malu seemed natural, but he deliberately teased Bucky Lulu, the iceberg beauty, with the returning Major Graham, watching Bucky Lulu run away, Marlu touched his right hand in his coat pocket but hesitated for a while.
