Chapter 165: Robin's Decision (Part II)

Mutiny?

The word spoken by Robin himself echoed in everyone's ears like thunder, and Aubrey, who was the first to ask, was even more shocked and speechless.

As Robin's former direct officer, Aubrey has witnessed how Robin has grown from a young rookie soldier to a prince who is now famous all the way. He still vividly remembers Robin's unyielding eyes when he first joined the army, and witnessed his loyalty to the republic.

However, he also knew that people change. Human ambition will change with the change of the environment, and driven by ambition, the human heart is also unconsciously changing in the process of growth.

Not to mention Robin, who is now in a high position, just talking about himself, he has to admit that after getting used to the life of being in an important position now, it is difficult for him to adapt to the poor and boring life of the republic.

And most of the soldiers of the republic who fought under Robin also felt this way, after all, compared to the boring and monotonous republic, the Federation did not force xìng to suppress the aspirations of mankind, on the contrary, in the political model of the Federation, all kinds of human aspirations were magnified to the maximum.

Without trying the life of the Federation, without any reference to compare with, no one will feel how miserable the previous life was. However, when people experience two very different ways of life, even if they don't think about it, the contrast will still come naturally. After all, compared to the life of freedom here, the life of the republic is too restrictive, and it is as restrictive as a machine. Take the republic's forced supply of rationed meals as an example, although everyone knows that this rationed meal is the perfect nutritional ratio obtained by the central computer after calculating its own functional indicators, but no one likes to be forced to be confined and asked what to eat and what not to eat, no one likes to do everything must be approved by a computer, and turn themselves into a machine that does not know how to think and only knows how to obey orders.

Therefore, when Robin mentioned the word mutiny, although the faces of everyone present became very ugly, no one immediately stood up against or blamed Robin. Ask yourself, who has never had such a thought in their heart, the current depression and tranquility are actually more of embarrassment and self-blame after the topic is provoked.

The "renegade ......" turned his gaze to Cecilia, who had been staring at him, and Robin said his heart with a wry smile in a flat tone: "To be honest, after having everything now, I did think about giving up contact with the Republic, but just staying in the Federation until the country is completely subverted, and trying to carve out a world that belongs to us." ”

Speaking of this, Robin sighed and shook his head helplessly: "This is a very human idea, and it has made me shaken more than once. But...... If I do, then what is the difference between me and Dandin, and how can I deal with my relatives who are still in the Republic? And those comrades-in-arms who died first in order to defend the republic? ”

"......" Robin's words made everyone bow their heads in shame.

Although Robin's words seem to be speaking of himself, in fact, they include all the tens of thousands of compatriots from the Republic. Each of them, like Robin, is haunted by the sīyù left in the Federation, but at the same time, in the Republic there is an unbreakable bond that they cannot let go.

When Daisy brings back news from the Republic, the bond of the Republic and the longing for homecoming prevail in their hearts. But now, when the republic touched their personal interests, the sīyù in their hearts began to move stupidly.

Human beings are such contradictory creatures, on the one hand, they seek nobility, and on the other hand, they have the darkness that comes from instinct.

These are two modes that cannot coexist, but now, such a problem really appears in front of everyone, so that they can't make a choice for a while, and can only look at each other in a dilemma.

"So...... Can you tell us about your decision? After a long silence, Jarvis stood up and asked.

When faced with things that they can't decide, people always have a feeling of dependence on others. And the leader exists because he can make decisions that no one else can. Therefore, when everyone is in the hands of Robin at this moment, as a leader, he must use his own decisions to show everyone the way.

"We are soldiers of the republic, and I carry the glory of the republic~" Robin swept over everyone's faces one by one with a resolute gaze, and roared in a deep voice: "Defending the republic, this is the only belief that has supported us in fighting so far." ”

“……”

After Robin's words fell, the infectious voice suddenly made everyone's faces appear with a jī look, and there was a faint feeling of relief.

"If we don't want to mutiny, then how can we refuse General Patton's military orders?"

It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders. After more than a decade in the military, this concept has long been ingrained in Aubrey's bones. So when Robin explained that he was not going to rebel, he immediately asked suspiciously.

"As I have said before, General Patton is in the Republic, and he is not aware of the political movements of the Federation, nor is he aware that the Union Army is currently facing a great crisis. His order was given in the absence of information, so he grossly overestimated the current combat effectiveness of the Union Army and dared to set only the goal of winning the Great Patriotic War. And the reason why I refuse his battle order is precisely to explain all the information to General Patton, so that he can understand that the Republic is now fully capable of fighting for a better situation than winning only the Great Patriotic War. Even, if my plan is carried out smoothly, the Republic will henceforth have no need to worry about invasion from the Federation, and will usher in a lasting peace and a richer territory. Robin looked around with confident eyes and delivered a shortly completed plan to everyone.

The general content of this proposal Robin had spoken to Angus once, and now, Robin has detailed the specific steps of this proposal in writing. Coupled with the latest information from Daisy that the Federal Expeditionary Force had been defeated, Robin was now confident that the scenario assumed in the plan would become a reality.

"It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders, but in our Han nationality, there is a saying that generals are outside, and military orders are not granted." Robin propped his hands on the table, looked around and said, "I will use this plan to convince General Patton, I believe that now that he has sensed that something is wrong with the Federal Expeditionary Force, with General Patton's military sense, he will definitely not ignore an opportunity to expand the results of the battle and slip away from his eyes." ”

As a fleet commander, Robin's ability to achieve tactical accomplishment and command may not be outstanding, but his keen grasp of the situation and strategic vision are beyond the reach of ordinary people. Therefore, after combining the latest developments in the Battle of Pluto and the current political situation in the Federation, Robin may really have a chance to convince the entire Republican Ministry to change its original military strategy in one fell swoop, as he said.

And if he can really convince the military department and the central computer to adopt this strategy, then the Barnard system and the Ultra Nebula will become a buffer zone independent of the Republic. Since Robin's plan will use support for Blair? Due to the fact that Rex established the government-in-exile to confront Ansel, it is absolutely impossible for the enclaves of the two republics, the Barnard system and the Ultra Nebula, to completely adopt the governance model of the republic, and it is bound to be ...
