After completing the handover of this reconnaissance mission, Xia Houlin still immediately went to the troop station as usual. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info Because he and Akizuki originally had a residence in Atlantis, they didn't have to live in those collective dormitories like the other soldiers.

Of course, this is also a special case specially listed by the military for the special couple of Xiahou Lin and Qiu Yue. After all, one of them is an ace driver, and the other is a senior technician who develops weapons for the military. Enjoy a little bit of privilege, and that's okay.

After driving the car to the outside of the Meteor Research Institute, Xia Houlin was unexpectedly stopped by some soldiers of the Federation. After stating that he was here to pick up his wife, the other party still refused to let him go.

At this time, Xia Houlin realized that the research institute was already full of federal soldiers with weapons in their hands. They patrol here, and prohibit all idlers from approaching.

Of course, the idle people will not include Xiahoulin, the current Federation Downfall King, this reconnaissance mission destroyed one of Zeon's cruisers and six Zagu, such a record is already unmatched in the Federation army.

Sure enough, the argument at the gate quickly attracted the attention of the people inside, so an officer and another middle-aged man in a research uniform walked over, followed by a group of soldiers.

The middle-aged man in the research uniform saw that the person blocked by the soldiers was actually Xia Houlin, so he immediately explained to the officer beside him.

The officer was going to scold this young man who didn't know what to do. But after hearing the middle-aged man's explanation, his eyes when he looked at Xia Houlin again immediately changed, and a clear smile appeared on his face.

"Don't let Ensign Altaïr in, he's not an outsider." The officer gave the order as he walked towards Xiahoulin with a smile. After looking the strongest MS pilot in the Federation up and down, he spoke again: "I'm sorry to let you be blocked out, second lieutenant." ”

"It's nothing, it's your duty too, I'm here to pick up my wife. Can I go see her now? Xiahou Lin said with a smile, although it was not clear why this guy suddenly changed his attitude. However, since the other party is polite to himself, then of course he has to give this officer some face.

"Second Lieutenant, you can go first with the doctor, I still have something to do, so I won't delay you." After saying this, the officer smiled and shook Xiahoulin's hand, then turned and walked towards a military vehicle outside.

Xiahoulin didn't pay much attention to the officer, but turned around and walked towards the huge laboratory of the institute with the doctor. Along the way, I saw many soldiers of the Federal Army patrolling back and forth, and some military technicians next to some large container trucks.

"Doctor, what the hell is going on here, that you have to put martial law?" Xia Houlin looked at these fresh-faced Federation troops, and suddenly had a trace of curiosity. You must know that the independent mobile fleet stationed here would never make such an operation.

"It's not the previous Earth Headquarters, which just sent a mobile suit developed by the military." The doctor explained to Xia Houlin that he didn't have a very good opinion of these things in the military. After all, the other party relied on the data collected by his own research to develop it.

Now that the Federal Army has sent the testing machine developed by the military here, doesn't it make it clear that they want to use the power of the Meteor Research Institute to improve this product for them.

Although the current situation on the front line is urgent, once it involves vital interests, then anyone will inevitably have selfish intentions.

"Can I go and see it?" Xiahou Lin suddenly became interested, maybe the doctor next to him looked down on the mobile suits of the Federation Army, and thought that they were made with the technology they provided.

However, Xia Houlin knew that the federal army actually started the "V plan" in March, gathering the most advanced technology and personnel of the federation and fully devoting itself to the research and development of the latest MS.

In the original history, the Federation Army really developed the MS that completely overwhelmed Zeon, that is, the famous RX-78 Gundam.

Of course, in this world where history has changed badly, there is a large amount of research data on the Zeon side and mobile suit collected by the Meteor Institute. I'm afraid that the technical staff of the Federation will develop a more advanced body.

"Of course, your wife is there to take over the testing machine. If you don't know the pilot of this body, even you may not be a second lieutenant. After saying that, the doctor immediately led the way for Xia Houlin personally, because Qiu Yue is now the ace of the research institute. Whether it's new weapons or mobile suit research, this genius woman is indispensable.

Therefore, for Qiu Yue's husband Xia Houlin, the personnel in the research institute have always been polite.

"I don't care, but it would be nice to be able to see the new mech first." Although Xia Houlin said so, he was a little excited in his heart. If you want to test an advanced machine like Gundam as a pilot, it would be the best thing to do.

But as Xia Houlin saw the test machine that had been set up, his original excitement immediately disappeared.

"What the is this?" Xia Houlin looked at the body that was placed in the research institute, and couldn't help but complain in his heart. Because the thing I saw in front of me was not a Gundam at all, and it couldn't even be called a complete mech.

This so-called testing machine doesn't even have a shell, it's completely a bare metal. And that slightly bloated shape doesn't look like a Gundam no matter how you look at it.

Just when Xiahou Lin was a little puzzled by this, two cannons were transported down from a transport cart on the side. According to the staff, it is the equipment of this body, which is fixed to the shoulder position. Then some parts began to be shipped one after another.

"This is a steel cannon testing machine!" Based on the parts of the airframe that were subsequently unloaded, Xia Houlin immediately recognized the true identity of this mobile suit.

Guncannon is one of the three Mechs in the Federal Army's Plan V. Mainly designed to provide medium-range fire support to the Gundam, the most distinctive feature of this unit is the two 240mm caliber cannons located on both shoulders. With this weapon in combat, this machine can provide powerful support artillery fire to friendly forces.

However, the lack of ammunition and low mobility can be said to be the weakness of the steel cannon, but the armor thickness and support firepower of this aircraft are second to none during the year of combat.

"Gabro wants us to test the combat effectiveness of this mobile suit first. Therefore, it is specifically shipped here, but there is no requirement to put it into actual combat immediately. A technician who was in charge of accompanying Xia Houlin deliberately pointed to the steel cannon and explained.

In fact, the technicians here are not interested in testing the testing machine of the Federal Army. Because they have their own things to do next, which is to develop mobile suits that belong to the Meteor Research Institute's own design.

However, the order from the top of the military made these personnel of the Meteor Research Institute have to put down their work and cooperate with the test of this test machine.

"I'm not interested in this thing, if I want to test it, I'll give it to other drivers." Xia Houlin said bluntly to the person in charge of the research institute beside him, shook his head, and then turned around and walked towards Qiuyue. Not even interested in looking back at the Federation's newest Mobile Suit.

Xia Houlin's move immediately stunned the people in the research institute. They didn't expect that the ace pilot would be so repulsive to this new mech, the first time they saw it.

Of course, these people don't know, Xia Houlin has long known the performance of steel cannon. Therefore, I have no interest in this medium-range fire support aircraft, and if I want to fly it myself, it is to fly the Ace Gundam of the Federation Army.

As for the Guncannon thing, leave it to the other drivers. Anyway, there are already quite a few pilots in the independent mobile fleet.

Because during this time, Chahoulin and others attacked the Zeon transport ship, and therefore obtained two brigades of MS produced by Zeon. So with the help of these trophies, the independent mobile fleet quickly trained a lot of MS pilots.

After leaving the place where the steel cannon was placed, Xia Houlin quickly found Qiu Yue who was looking at the data in an office.

"Are you looking at the data provided by the Federal Army, I'm afraid these won't be of much use to us." Xia Houlin opened his mouth and said to Qiu Yue, who was looking at him, in his opinion, the data of Steel Cannon was actually dispensable.

"What's the matter, aren't you interested in Ganganon?" Qiu Yue asked in a soft tone, she had already heard from Xia Houlin's tone that he didn't want to drive that body.

"Of course, I'm only interested in Gundam right now. We gave Gabro so much information, couldn't those scientists have been able to develop the Gundam earlier? "For the progress of the development of MS by the Federal Army, Xiahoulin really felt a little disappointed.

If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to see the Gundam being developed as soon as possible, the Xiahou Army would not have the time to hand over the collected experimental data to the Federal Army.

"I can't blame Gabro's technicians for this, because developing a new Mobile Suit is not an easy task. Moreover, according to the original history, the performance of the Gundam has surpassed the vast majority of Zeon mechs. I believe that this is not something that can be developed casually. Qiu Yue is more open-minded, she knows that the design and development of a new weapon is not a one-touch thing. It has to be constantly experimented with before it can be finally produced.

"Forget it, don't expect to drive a Gundam in the short term. Is your job over now? Xia Houlin asked Qiu Yue, for the other party, these materials in front of him should be able to read it quickly.

"Not yet, the institute wants us to complete the analysis of the data as soon as possible, and then carry out the experiment of this machine in the shortest time possible." Qiu Yue returned with a smile, and at the same time called up a design drawing about the steel cannon, and said to Xia Houlin.
