66 I will always be by your side
Let Unit Zero hold a shield to defend against the bombardment of the particle cannon?
Hearing Chu Xuan's suggestion, everyone immediately froze, and they couldn't believe their ears.
Because of the free publicity of many gossip enthusiasts in the base, there are almost no people who don't know that Senior Colonel Chu Xuan once grabbed the neck of Shinji Ikari, the son of the commander of Ikari Gentang, and threatened him to pilot the first plane, otherwise he would definitely die in front of Rei Ayaba, the pilot of the zero plane.
Thanks to this, Chu Xuan, who was obviously expressionless and unsmiling all day long, was crowned with the glorious title of "Iron Man Tenderness" by the women in the base, and the fact that he went to the shopping street to buy vegetables with Black Cat and Ayanami Li every day was also regarded as evidence that Chu Xuan actually attached great importance to those two little girls in his heart.
But this is the kind of Chu Xuan who would take the initiative to put Ayanami Li in such a dangerous situation...... And it's also to protect Shinji Ikari!
Is this to show his "great impartiality"? If that's the case, Rei Ayanami is too pitiful.
You must know that judging from the maximum attack power shown by the Sixth Apostle, even the space battleship can't withstand its continuous bombardment, and no matter what shield Zero holds, it will be difficult to support it for too long.
- Of course, this is not to say that Rei Ayanami is necessarily fatal, but if you simply reason, you will come to the conclusion that such a mission is quite dangerous.
"Do you have any comments? I think this is the most operational solution at this stage and has the highest chance of success.
If we can make some deal with other organizations and get more defensible armor and a full-fledged energy supply system, the chances of this plan succeeding will be much higher.
But at this juncture, it is necessary to acquire the core technology of other organizations...... At the very least, we must obtain physical goods from them that can be of immediate use, and it may cost us a lot of money, depending on the judgment of Commander Ikari or 'higher'. ”
Chu Xuan sat firmly on the chair. Expressionlessly, he pushed down his reflective glasses and explained his proposed battle plan in a calm voice that was no different from usual.
"No...... Come to think of it, there's only so much more we can do.
Matters related to obtaining core technology or physical objects from other organizations are left to Ritsuko.
At least...... Just make a deal, whether it's armor or energy. Even if we can only get one, our odds will be greatly improved. ”
Misato Katsuragi thought about it carefully, and finally adopted Chu Xuan's plan, "It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice", even if she is called "Magician Miracle Yang", it is impossible to really create a miracle out of nothing - in the final analysis, "magic" is just a special operation technique. It must also obey objective laws, and it cannot go beyond them.
But what if the various organizations on Earth no longer cherish themselves, but give up their own petty calculations and work together against the apostles...... That's a miracle.
What's more, they also see their own unique technology very seriously. I am not qualified to make irresponsible comments about others.
After all, even the Zenith, which is much more technologically advanced than humans, has not been able to unite humanity tightly, perhaps only when the interstellar insects really occupy Mars, will those high-ranking bigwigs cooperate "to a limited extent".
And want those big people to voluntarily give up the power in their hands...... That's completely impossible, even if humans and Zeniths escape the solar system in the macrboss together, the big guys will definitely continue to fight for power and interests in the macrboss.
Because of the time constraints, everyone immediately split up after determining their respective tasks, regardless of whether the "above" could get any help from other organizations. At the very least, they have to do what they can do first.
So the maintenance team began to replace the EVA No. 1 with G-type equipment for sniping, the logistics department began to mobilize various materials, the staff began to formulate a plan to lure the Sixth Apostle to change the attack mode according to their "needs", the technical department began to prepare shields and energy supply plans, and the engineering department dispatched various engineering vehicles to level the field at the predetermined sniper position......
And Misato Katsuragi and Chu Xuan didn't have any other work after formulating the entire battle plan - neither armor nor energy was a project that Ritsuko Akagi was responsible for, and even if Chu Xuan, who had "otherworldly technology", could help, it was impossible for him to run over and turn the tide without "having been in contact with these projects before", otherwise it would be easy for people to become suspicious.
Perhaps, the combat scheme was conveyed to the two EVA pilots. And calming the emotions of the drivers is the most important job for both of them at this stage......
“…… What, what? Let me do the sniping?
But I don't know how to do it......"
In a small combat conference room, Shinji Ikari, who had already completed the full body examination and was confirmed to have no internal injuries, immediately said nervously after learning about the battle plan.
Even he knew. Sniping is a very advanced shooting technique, which not only requires long-term training, but also requires some "talent" to do it, not at all like the first time he piloted the first plane, "just sit on it".
"Don't worry, the shooting is all done by the computer, you just need to pull the trigger after locking on to the target, just like in training."
Misato Katsuragi dispelled Shinji Ikari's concerns in a word, or rather that he wouldn't be able to snipe, and the worry that he wouldn't have time to shoot the second shot if he didn't hit the first shot still haunted him.
Shinji Ikari had had enough of the suffering of the Sixth Apostle, and he really didn't want to taste the feeling of being bombarded by a high-energy particle beam again.
"Leigh, there's something I want to tell you."
"Yes."
After Misato Katsuragi, Chu Xuan finally spoke, he pushed down his reflective glasses expressionlessly, and said in a voice that was as smooth and uninhibited as ever to Rei Ayana, who was still calm and waveless even when he knew that he had to carry the particle cannon:
"I proposed that the first plane, which has a higher synchronization rate, snipe the No. 0 plane, defend against the counterattack of the sixth apostle, and I put forward it."
"W-What?!"
Before Chu Xuan could react to what Chu Xuan said personally, Shinji Ikari exclaimed first, he was the one who couldn't believe that Chu Xuan would come up with that kind of plan, because he had always looked at Chu Xuan's various silent concerns about Ayanami Rei, and he knew very well how much this expressionless man attached importance to that equally expressionless girl.
At this time, Shinji Ikari suddenly had a feeling in his heart that he had been betrayed by the most trusted person, what was the difference between Chu Xuan's actions and the guy who ordered his son, who came to his father's side with anxiety and anticipation, to sit inside the giant robot and fight the huge monster!
Shinji Ikari gritted his teeth and lowered his head silently, not wanting Misato Katsuragi and Chu Xuan to see his expression at the moment, but his fist, which kept trembling slightly because he was clenched too tightly, revealed the waves in his heart.
However, after hearing the news, Rei Ayana, who was the person concerned, only had a slight fluctuation in the depths of her red eyes, which had no luster and seemed to be made of inferior plastic.
She only paused for a few seconds, then lowered her eyes and said to Chu Xuan smoothly and obediently as usual:
"Yes, I see.
I will definitely complete the task. ”
"No, Leigh, that's not what I'm trying to say."
Chu Xuan shook his head slightly, and then walked in front of Ayanami Li, the blue-haired girl with a calm face raised her head for some reason, and her dull red eyes reflected Chu Xuan's poker face with reflective glasses, quietly waiting for his further explanation.
"What I want you to know is ......"
Chu Xuan put his left hand on Rei Ayaba's fluffy hair, rubbed the top of her head twice, and then said in a very serious tone:
"I'll be in the war when the time comes, and I'll always be by your side.
So rest assured, you won't die, because I will protect you. (To be continued......)
