Chapter Seventy-Nine: Alien Invaders?
"What? Annihilation! ”
At the same time, a masked man on a ship marked with the coat of arms of the Principality of Liberty received news that the Einsatzgruppen had been ambushed around the White Cass, preparing to raid the Origin, only to be wiped out.
Most of the masked man's face was covered, but the exposed eyes showed the shock in his heart.
"Have you confirmed this news?"
After the shock, one of his reactions was to question.
"Yes, Colonel Harlan, we have repeatedly confirmed, and sent people to the relevant star fields to conduct reconnaissance, and at the cost of paying two space reconnaissance planes, we have confirmed the authenticity of this information, but none of the relevant black boxes have been recovered."
The masked man known as Colonel Harang nodded, then waved his hand: "Okay, you guys go down first, let the staff detachment come over, and then call Salar over, I have something to say to them." ”
"Yes!" The two men in crisp costumes saluted and immediately left.
"Annihilation? How is this possible, isn't it a joke? After the others left, the masked man bowed his head and sighed, feeling incredulous, "The lineup sent out, even if it is a body equipped with a moonlight furnace, can't do this, what happened in this battle?" This time, the black box is missing again, just like the previous times, is the other party deliberately blocking the news, or is there some other secret behind it? ”
With this thought, the masked man fell into deep thought, then shook his head again, and said with some sighs: "It's a pity, this opportunity was originally an opportunity for me to climb up, but there was such an incident, more than a dozen mobile suits were wiped out, and the responsibility must be held accountable to me, and my military career is estimated to be over." ”
He is the deputy commander in charge of the Special Operations Team mentioned by the previous Chief of Operations Brian.
Since the commander-in-chief, that is, the head of operations Brian, is to sit in the operation command, the real commander of this special operations team, who is responsible for specific affairs, is the deputy commander, Colonel Haran, who has already prepared the trap after several layouts and waited for Kimlo to get in, but now the feedback is completely different.
"Colonel!"
At this time, a hurried call came from outside the door, and the voice fell, and Salar, who was still wearing bandages, and several other young people rushed in, and everyone's face revealed an expression of shock and confusion.
"I heard that ......" didn't wait to stand still, and Salar couldn't wait to ask, and he didn't even care about the upper and lower ranks.
"Yes, the whole army was wiped out, and I just got this news, so it's very surprising, right?" The masked man looked relaxed, and seemed to have thought about it and was relieved, "This opponent of ours is really unexpected, such an answer can be given in this situation, I think with this result, no one will dare to fight their idea in a short period of time." ”
"Do you want to let each other go like this? How much did that mysterious machine lose us, and let it go? Salar was a little difficult to accept, in the world, he had already guessed from some clues who the pilot of the mysterious body was.
After all, no matter how much the body changes, some of the pilot's habitual movements will not change, and they can generally be recognized from the combat actions of the airframe.
Looking at the emotional Salar, the masked man shook his head slightly: "Don't be excited, sometimes, you have to learn to be calm, but also learn to wait, you also know that the other party has caused us huge losses, so if you continue to invest, isn't there a greater loss?" The war on the front line is tight, how many forces can we mobilize? ”
Seeing that Salar was about to speak again, he waved his hand first: "Don't be in a hurry to refute, I said this to tell you that the next thing to deal with is that mysterious body, and it will be more difficult to rely on us, so this matter must be upgraded, I think except for those four moonlight bodies, no one can deal with him." ”
"You want to use the Moonshine Body?"
Hearing this name, not only Salar, but also several other young people also had different faces.
"Of course, but they are all on the front line now, if they want to turn around, it will definitely take time, and with the identity and qualifications of the moonlight pilot, it is not something I can command, there must be changes in scheduling, it takes time, and time is not a bad thing for us, it can allow us to do a lot, and it can also make the enemy slowly weaken."
"Weaken the enemy?" Salar shook his head, "I think that mysterious body is constantly getting stronger, and if you let it go, the consequences are unpredictable. ”
"Yes, your opinion is good, but there are many ways to weaken the combat effectiveness of one side, such as letting them involve each other internally." Senior Colonel Harlan said, showing a mysterious smile, "A body with mysterious power and outstanding achievements is a good gain for the Earth Federation, I believe that there will be a new round of power struggle within them for this, what we have to do is just to leak the information to the past, and at the same time carry out a certain degree of distortion, in this regard, I have already set out to let the intelligence department operate." ”
"Alienating the Earth Federation?" Salar reacted.
"I prefer to call it to promote the development of things, but unfortunately, I can start this matter, but I can't be responsible, and the rest will be left to you." The masked man said, sighed, and said under the puzzled gaze of everyone: "Someone must be responsible for this failure, I am undoubtedly the best candidate, you are all seeds with great potential, so don't worry, I will take all the responsibility." ”
"Colonel!"
"Colonel Haran!"
"You!"
Salar and the other young people all showed sad expressions, but they also knew that this was inevitable, in the war, among the countless soldiers, no one was special, and any turmoil could cause personnel turmoil.
"Don't cry with a sad face, this is not necessarily a bad thing," Colonel Haran looked very relieved, "The battlefield is so dangerous, I can definitely get out this time, stay in the rear at least don't have to worry about losing my life tomorrow." ”
Toot toot!
Just as the air was gradually filled with sadness, a series of emergency calls interrupted their emotions.
"Huh? It's an emergency channel, and this channel hasn't been ringing for a long time. Colonel Harlan looked surprised and turned to the screen in front of him, "Cut the signal in." ”
Swish!
On a screen in front of him, an old man who was not angry and arrogant suddenly appeared, wearing a military uniform, with a Chinese face and a frown.
Senior Colonel Harlan became more and more surprised, but he still gave a military salute and said, "General Matt, it's actually you?" Could it be that you are personally responsible for this incident and demote me? It's an honor. ”
"Okay, Haran, you know for sure that since I came forward, it won't be here to punish you." General Matt on the screen shook his head, "There's a mission for you. ”
"Oh? It's not the teacher who asks for guilt, but he has to give us a new task," Colonel Harang asked curiously, "Can you tell me what kind of problem it is?" What new weapons has the Earth Federation developed? ”
"No, this mission has nothing to do with the Earth Federation."
General Matt's words surprised Colonel Harlan even more.
"It has nothing to do with the Earth Federation, is it a problem on the side of the moon base? They finally made a decision? ”
"It's not a moon base either," General Matt showed a little helpless expression, "Haran, do you still have any concept of military ranks, stop messing around, listen to me." ”
"Yes!" Harang restrained his smile and solemnly saluted.
General Matt shook his head helplessly, and then continued: "This incident is related to Mars. ”
"Mars?" This time, it was not Colonel Harang who interrupted, but Salar, who couldn't help but speak out, and then looked embarrassed, first confessed, and then whispered, "I was just too surprised." ”
"Of course, I can understand your feelings," General Matt didn't reproach him, "because Mars has been out of touch with us for so long that many people are about to forget about the largest extraterrestrial colony of humanity. ”
This is not an exaggeration, because of communication and transportation reasons, even today's technology, it is impossible to communicate with Mars in real time, let alone transport back and forth.
In ancient times, if a feudal dynasty did not build galloping roads and post stations, then its rule over the frontier areas would be very weak, and at most it would use fetters and require a nominal subordinate, which was the case with the Martian colony.
The Earthsphere did not have much control over there, but the population of immigrants on Mars continued to increase, and finally there was a riot over there, and its own regime was established, and the Earth side was unable to suppress it, and the two sides gradually broke off direct contact.
This time, the Principality of Liberty raised the flag of rebellion, which caused a huge impact, but it was only limited to the surrounding of the earth, and it had little impact on Mars.
General Matt didn't sell it either: "It seems that the Martian side has made contact with some kind of alien life, but the other party is full of aggression and has a huge impact on the Martian colony, so they sent a distress signal, because of the distance, we only received it recently, and at the same time got another news." ”
"What's the news?" Colonel Harlan asked, frowning slightly, already roughly guessed.
"That extraterrestrial life already has an advance team and is about to reach the Earth's sphere!"
………………
"Extraterrestrial life?"
On the other side, through Kimro, Linde and others, Sun Dao also got the news and couldn't help but ponder.
"This timing is so coincidental that I have to wonder if this is the work of a higher authority, and the situation is getting more and more complicated and interesting." (To be continued.) )
