Chapter 37: The Chess Game
Just after the civil war, the situation in the geosphere changed dramatically, and Bian's deputy, Adra, thought that Bian was dead, and led the remnants of the DC army to join the remnants of the United Army, intending to find another opportunity to make a comeback.

Lily and the others followed Maia's instructions and defected to the Federation Army, intending to exert their strength in the battle with the aliens in the future to defend the Earth's sphere.
On the other hand, there are many people in the upper echelons of the federation who are taking advantage of the current chaotic situation and intend to make a profit, but as for the people's lives, they have not thought about it at all.
Wyvern received an order from the Far East Branch to transport the ATX Team to the Far East Branch.
Hibikisuke, as the captain, is dutiful and is asking about the current situation so that he can prepare for the mission.
"Although the Steel has broken through Hades, the remaining remnants of the DC Army are still engaged in guerrilla warfare, and the fighting continues, and the remnants of the Satellite Coalition have merged with them." Sean is briefing the ATX team on the current situation.
"It looks like it's going to be 'chaotic' for a while." Bullitt muttered.
"At present, the Geosphere Defense Committee, centered on Major General Norman Slay (the first general who proposed the humanoid light cavalry plan and was very visionary), is organizing and commanding the army, but it is difficult to carry out it at present." Lifina frowned, looking a little worried.
"Difficult? Is it because of the EOT Special Council? Hibiki asked. Obviously, since the Antarctic incident, Hibiki has paid a lot more attention to the EOT Special Review.
"It is precisely the case that Speaker Karui Shotolezerman has taken advantage of the situation to plot to take full control of the upper echelons of the military through the Security Council." Sean answered Hibiki's question.
"Does the Speaker intend to contain Major General Norman and us, who belong to the Alien Radical Resistance Faction?" Bullitt was thoughtful.
"I see, that's why we want to assassinate him," Exelen tilted her head as she pressed her right index finger against her lower lip.
"How could this be?" Hibiki was embarrassed, "Now if you receive the invasion of the Void Emissary, the Earth Circle will not be able to be saved, so Speaker Shuto Lezeman will act alone and prepare to negotiate with the aliens again, I think so." β
"For this reason, the EOT Special Council has decided to bring Hades under its jurisdiction." Lifina affirmed Hibiki's reasoning from the side.
"Then Hades Island will become the stuff of the E Special Trial." Axelin frowned.
"That's it." Although Sean found this behavior despicable, he had nothing to say.
"Hmph, it's really irritating to make a thousand in a gambling game." Hibiki despises this despicable practice.
On the other side, Xiao Chen also learned the news.
Bai Hechou picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, looking at Xiao Chen, who was reading the information opposite, and "revealed" an interesting expression, like a chess player watching his opponent meditate on his own move.
"How?" Bai Hechou asked.
"Fools." Xiao Chen threw the documents aside, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"So you have a solution?" Bai Hechou felt more and more interesting.
"A child's trick, it's going to be a bit of a problem if you change this position to anyone else, but if you let someone from the EOT Special Council take control, it's no problem at all." Xiao Chen smiled disdainfully.
"Oh?" Bai Hechou dragged out his tone, wondering why Xiao Chen said this.
"The EOT Special Council members feel that they are very important because they indirectly influence the attitudes of the aliens." Xiao Chen explained to Bai Hechou, "They feel that as long as they insist on peace talks, the aliens will not attack or delay the attack. β
"However, whether the aliens attack or not has nothing to do with their council, even if I rush to the aliens now and kill all the council members who are negotiating peace, and then sit down to negotiate with them, they will not care." Xiao Chen smiled mockingly, "Aliens have their own spies, and their discussion of whether to attack or not is like discussing whether to eat or not, they will only trust the judgment made by their own spies. β
"Well, I almost forgot, you're a superpower, and it's too easy for you to figure this out." Bai Hechou remembered Xiao Chen's ability.
"So, you don't have to pay attention to the guy you sent over, just 'insert' the shadow with peace of mind, you don't need to think about anything, you can deal with it as you like. Now the Federation uniforms collected before are useful, let our soldiers wear Union uniforms and blend into the Federation army to control everything on Hades Island, and if you dare to stand in the way, you can dispose of it, but remember to do it silently, so that no one can find a trace. Xiao Chen explained to Bai Hechou.
However, Xiao Chen will not worry about Bai Hechou's ability to do things at all, Bai Hechou is a character like Sima Yi, and such a trivial matter is too simple for him.
"By the way, you can train some people as henchmen to find opportunities to send them to other parts of the Federation, with these chess pieces, it is convenient for us to understand the current situation, and secondly, you can also learn about the situation of Masaki at any time." Xiao Chen smiled, "Sometimes it's much better to have a force than to go it alone. β
"Huh." Bai Hechou smiled, and found that he couldn't see through Xiao Chen more and more, and he put Xiao Chen in the same position as himself more and more.
For Chou, many people in the world are inferior to his eyes, and there are almost few people who can be regarded by him as equal to himself, and Xiao Chen is one of the few people he can look up to.
Xiao Chen returned home and came to Bian's study.
"Father-in-law, I have something to ask you for." Xiao Chen got straight to the point.
"Oh, what's the matter?" Bian listened to an old-fashioned record, holding a goblet with red wine in his right hand and a book in his left.
"I'm here to ask for the drawings of the Federation's standard human hussars and the drawings of Balsion, and I plan to hand them over to the Federation Army." Xiao Chen replied.
"Oh, I'll look for it." Bian smiled, not surprised in his heart, Bian himself is actually very loyal to the Federation or to the Earth Sphere, and he is not disgusted at all by handing over the blueprints, but is a little happy, because this can increase the combat power of the Federation and add a weight to the future war with aliens.
Xiao Chen looked at Bi'an's figure and sighed, such a genius may be able to become a temporary overlord, or he may be able to repel the federal army, but he can never become a ruler, and a researcher is only a researcher after all.
After a while, Bian found the drawings and handed them to Xiao Chen.
"Father-in-law, take care of Nini for me for the time being." Xiao Chen took the drawings and said to Bian.
Bian frowned, "You're still going out?" β
"yes, there are some things that have to be done." Xiao Chen's expression was serious, "The real battle has just begun. β
Hearing this, Bian's expression softened slightly, and he understood that the next alien talent was a bigger eye-opener, and if the front line could not support it, the geosphere as the rear would only be reduced to a ruin.
"I hope you can teach Nini how to use Valcioni." Xiao Chen's expression was serious, "You must have the strength to protect yourself, although Bai Hechou will take care of you for me, but we can't pin our hopes on others." You should study Balsion's modifications next, I believe that the battle of Hades Island should have a great impact on you, try to modify Balcion and Valcioni better, everything is safe in wartime. β
Xiao Chen left the study with the drawings, intending to say goodbye to Runi.
"Huh." Bian smiled, closed the poetry book he was reading, and took out Balcion's line draft, "I'm a little decadent now, but it's inevitable that I'm getting older, Xiao Chen, this little guy has a longer perspective than me, and I should find something to do." Xiao Chen found Runi in the backyard who was petting the dog.
"Nini." Xiao Chen called softly.
Runi heard Xiao Chen's voice and raised her head, the sunlight shone on Runny's golden hair, and for a while she couldn't tell which was hair and which was sunshine.
Lu Ni saw Xiao Chen and smiled brightly, Xiao Chen felt that the whole world was only left with Lu Ni's smiling face, and even the sunshine was compared to this brilliant smile. Under the bright sunshine, the wind blows and the flowers shake, and the Yiren smile, forming a beautiful picture.
Xiao Chen smiled slightly, and the warm wind blew Xiao Chen's long hair, even with the blue sky above Xiao Chen's head, without a trace of fireworks, as tranquil as the boundless sea.
"Nini, I'm leaving soon, you have to learn Valcioni's skills from your father-in-law." Xiao Chen squatted down slightly and pinched Runi's nose.
"You're leaving again?" Runi was stunned, a little dazed.
"Nini, listen, you have to learn the skills and protect Bian's father-in-law, after this big battle, Bian's father-in-law will be very 'confused' in his heart, you have to accompany him more, he is old, you have to cherish the time with him, you know." Xiao Chen stroked the hair of Runny Gold with his hand and whispered in a gentle tone.
"Father......" Runi remembered her father, who had been a little depressed in the past few days, and suddenly realized that she didn't know much about her father as much as Xiao Chen, "I will." Runi's eyes steady.
"Don't take this as a burden." Xiao Chen gently cupped Runi's face and looked into Runi's eyes, "Go out with him more for horseback riding and playing, he was playing with you when you were a child, and now it's time for you to accompany him." β
"Yes, I see." Runi nodded slightly.
"You can feel it, the tranquility here, there is no danger here, there is only beauty, then we will protect it." Xiao Chen began to instill some concepts in Runny so that Runi could understand herself, "Never let this beautiful land become full of sores, this is what we should strive for." β
"I will, I'll guard this place." Runi looked out to the sea in the distance, the sea breeze ruffling her hair.
After explaining some things to Runi, Xiao Chen drove the Venerable Gundam to hand over the drawings to Reka's side, and told Reka to try his best to make it easier for Bai He.
After that, Xiao Chen flew to the next destination: the Duchy of Rixente in the Venerable Gundam.
And the ATX team also headed towards the extreme east.
Suddenly, a voice came from the "Di ......" conveyor ship.
"Huh? What's up? Bullitt said suddenly.
"What's wrong?" Hibiki asked.
"It's SOS! This is...... On the ground!? Bullitt looked at the signal.
"It's sent from a long distance, and although it is said that there are cylindrical satellites, there is no accurate transmission facility." Axelin analyzed.
"So that's the case, it seems that there is only this kind of equipment, and the sender is the Duchy of Rixent." Bullitt thought for a moment.
"Duchy of Rixent?" Hibiki said suspiciously.
"Cheer up, Mr. Teach, let me tell you what it is." Exherine teased.
'Second Lieutenant Hibiki, Mr. Sect Leader,' Bullitt chuckled inwardly.
"It's a small country on the Mediterranean coast, but it has a special autonomy, so it's quite popular as a summer resort and a good place to visit." Axelin explained.
"I see, the SOS from there?" Hibiki asked.
"Yes, it seems to have been attacked by the remnants of the DC." Bullitt replied.
"Anyway, that country has gold mines, is it for that?" Exherine speculated.
"In order to ask for funds for a comeback, just like a bandit." Hibiki frowned.
"So it seems! Go and save them now! "Bullitt is also a hurry, and after determining the situation, he immediately plans to save people.
"Nope." Hibiki frowned.
"Why!? I've been attacked by DC! Bullitt wondered.
"If it's just us getting a distress signal, that's a different story, but other ground troops should also receive it." Hibiki said calmly.
"Forget it, the target is the Far East Branch, and the route has been set." Axelin also persuaded, but no one noticed the sneaky smile on her lips.
"How, how!" Bullitt was still a little unwilling.
"Give up, you can't save everyone alone, Bullitt." Hibiki explained.
'Woo! Bullitt was still reluctant in his heart, but he still had to obey the order.
"Ingram's dark chess...... Xiao Chen looked at the signal on the board and smiled.
"We'll see you again soon, ATX Team." Xiao Chen smiled lightly and drove the Venerable Gundam towards the Duchy of Rixent.
The entire circle of the earth has become a huge chessboard, and the Federation Army, Ingram, the EOT Special Council, the aliens, and countless people are all using the circle of the earth as a chessboard to start playing an incomparably grand game of chess, however, who is the chess piece and who is the chess player? At this point, we don't know.
In the present world, the city of stars never sleeps, the headquarters.
As soon as the night dissipated, there was a trace of morning light, and the deity was covered with sweat, and his iceberg-like face looked extremely incongruous, "Hehe, Jin, you played a big game of chess, I owe you, so I will repay you on him, and I will repay you on the Xiao family." β
The deity smiled faintly, remembering the comrades-in-arms who had fought together in bloody battles
