ACT341: Italian Wife
As one of the world's most famous "cute" countries, Italy has always been half a beat slower than other countries in various key matters. From the opening up of the earliest era of the universe to the current seizure of the Shattered Star Zone, the "late Italians" have always been the main joke that the leaders of various countries use to amuse after dinner.
In fact, the reason why Italy has been so slow to respond in this "buffet" of competing for the Broken Star Zone cannot be entirely blamed on their chronicles. On the one hand, it is because they do not have the convenience of being as close to the United States and Japan as they are, and on the other hand, because of their own lack of foundation, and not long after the completion of the Great Immigration, there are still a bunch of messes to deal with in the country, which is really lacking.
As a result, by the time they finally dealt with all the in the country, the powers that took the lead had already seized almost all the good places in the Shattered Star Region!
In desperation, the Italians could only try to enlist the help of their two new allies.
But at this time, Germany was already at war with Britain and France, so until the "preparations" were ready, they would not come here to touch this mold for the time being. On the Japanese side, the navy is reluctant to share its fruits with outsiders, so there is also a lack of interest in cooperation.
On the contrary, it was the Japanese army that took the initiative to come up and expressed its willingness to cooperate with them, which made the Italians, who did not know the inside of the Japanese army, feel very puzzled. Although I feel a little unreliable in my heart to cooperate with the army in space development, Italy can't take care of it so much at this time, and it is better to have a small partner who can cooperate than nothing.
The two sides will cooperate in accordance with the agreed terms. Italy provided technology, the Japanese Army provided logistics supplies and Korean labor. The two soldiers joined forces to find ore in the Shattered Star District, and when the goods were shipped, they would be divided in half.
The Italians have a special advantage over other countries, and that is that their "Caesars" have the ability to scan geologically, and can easily discover the veins hidden deep underground. Just ask Caesar to scan an asteroid and see everything inside. With this advantage, even if the Italians come late, they can catch up in terms of production.
After the two fleets converged near Gate 3, they headed all the way to the depths of the Shattered Star Zone.
For this collaboration. The IJA aspect is quite serious. Not only has 5,000 strong laborers been carefully selected from North Korea, but a large number of infrastructure materials have been prepared, and preparations are being made to build a long-term base in the Shattered Star Zone like Europe and the United States. The Italians also brought a full set of mechanized equipment and engineers, and of course, most importantly, Caesar. The Italian fleet that came with it was prepared to protect it.
Like the stars and the moon. Taken by Andrea. The Italian fleet led by the battleship Doria. The Brilliant Transport, which carried Caesar, was safely guarded at the center of the formation, while the Japanese Army fleet was scattered around them. Those gadgets with a standard displacement of only a few hundred tons did not have the strength to conduct fleet battles in an open area, but they were surprisingly easy to use in the Shattered Star Zone!
At this time on the deck of the Brilliant Ship. Caesar's exclusive driver, Edda. Mussolini was bored leaning against the fence, staring at the strange scenery unique to the Shattered Star Zone in the distance. From time to time, the breeze would gently stir up her long wavy orange hair, outlining the beauty that many of the men on board stopped to look at. But when these young sailors wanted to come up and talk, the ring on the ring finger of the other party's left hand made most people sigh.
Edda, who had just passed her 22nd birthday, was much more mature in appearance and temperament than when she fought in Spain three years ago. Coupled with the prominent status of the "Prime Minister's Daughter", Eda once had more than one suitor of the legion in Italy.
But with the marriage of the "No. 1 Italian Lady" last year, this army of suitors has also collapsed, and only a few "diehards" continue to hold on.
Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, especially those nostalgic girls who love to be rich and handsome, this marriage of Eda is simply a perfect marriage made in heaven. The man's Calais Azo. Count Ziano came from a prominent background, and his father, Count Capri, was Mussolini's close friend and the patriarch of Italian fascism. He co-planned the "Roman March" with Mussolini, and was later appointed Mussolini's successor, serving for many years as Minister of Transport and President of the Chamber of Deputies.
And although Galai Azo himself is a full 10 years older than Edda, he is handsome, dignified, and a mature and beautiful man. The other party has been engaged in diplomatic work, served as ambassador to Tang for a period of time, and is currently the Italian foreign minister, not only responsible for diplomatic work, but also involved in important decision-making in party affairs and internal affairs, and is Mussolini's confidant.
Many people, including Mussolini, felt that the young and promising Galeazzo must be the most suitable man in all of Italy and Edda, and the two tied the knot with the blessing of the king. But Edda, who was in the midst of it, knew very well that this was actually just an ordinary political marriage!
Eda had known Galai Azo since she was a child, but she really didn't love this man! Edda even knew that the other party was in close contact with another lover when he came to pursue her. So when her father asked her to marry this man, Eda was naturally reluctant to comply.
It is a pity that in political transactions, personal wishes are never respected as they should be. Eventually, Edda and Calais entered the church with a blessing, but when the groom tried to pull his beautiful bride into the cave room in the evening, the bride lifted the hem of her wedding dress and pulled out a pistol from it......
Many people thought that Galai Azo must have had a good night that night, but in fact the couple began to separate on their first day of marriage. Edda never talked about her husband when she was outside, but she wore the beautiful wedding ring on her hand all the time, because Edda found it to keep a lot of annoying "male flies" at bay.
While Eda was still in a daze, a girly male voice suddenly called out to her.
"Eda baby! Where are you? ”
"Marco! How many times have I told you, even if you are my best ♂ friend, don't call me that, okay! ”
"What's there~ baby!"
In Edda's tangled gaze, a man named Marco approached with a swaying catwalk. The other party is tall and full of body hair, wearing a one-piece overalls of the same style as Abe Takazu, with the zipper of the placket low to the waistline, revealing well-groomed chest hair and well-defined abs.
Some of the young sailors who had been peeking at Edda were all shocked in their hearts when they saw such a philosophical thing suddenly burst into the landscape. And the other party, who was so immortal, also noticed their gaze, and threw a big wink at this side, and a group of sailors were immediately frightened and scattered.
"Marko, don't scare people, okay?"
"You also know that I have the most wrong with sturdy men, and I can't help but ...... Oh hehe! ”
“……”
This man named "Marco" is the full-time maintenance technician of Caesar, the giant soldier, and is currently the best male friend with Edda. However, it is not difficult to judge from the posture and tone of the other party's speech that this product is actually an out-and-out!
When Edda first met Marko, she was disgusted by his unabashed sexuality. But after knowing each other for a long time, Edda found that although the other party was a, his personality was actually gentle and considerate, and he treated his comrades-in-arms like an old mother. Eda and many comrades-in-arms think that if Marco hadn't voted for a boy by mistake, he would definitely be a goddess-level bosom sister!
"Alright Edda, baby, it's almost time, don't let the commander wait."
"How is Caesar's condition?"
"Oh hehe! With me Marco here, naturally there is no problem! ”
In order to find R ore in the Shattered Star Zone, the Italians relied on Caesar's geological scanning ability the most. But after all, the activity time of the giant god soldiers is limited, so in order to ensure that Caesar can exert his due combat effectiveness at the critical moment, they will only start Caesar once every three days, and each event is only 15 minutes, and if the action is faster, it is enough to scan hundreds of asteroids.
And while Caesar is active, the combined Japanese-Italian fleet will also be on guard in the vicinity. Three days ago, they were attacked by an unknown force, but Caesar, who had just started it, immediately spotted the sneaky stealth object near the Splendor, and Eda captured it after judging that there was a threat.
However, on the way back to the Splendor, the apparently man-made object suddenly blew itself up, leaving only a pile of charred residue. The Italian fleet, though it gained little, was thus on its guard.
Knowing that time was limited, Eda was not ambiguous, and followed Marco quickly into the cabin to the aft hangar, which was originally intended for reconnaissance aircraft, but now became Caesar's special hangar. In order to adapt to the battle in the Shattered Star Zone, the tall giant god soldiers have been painted with gray and black space camouflage. Eda changed into a tight-fitting leather pilot's suit and slipped into the cockpit.
"Audition...... Marko, can you hear me? ”
"Hear me very clearly! It's a shame that you're not an announcer, Eda baby! ”
"Come less! Caesar, here we go! ”
"Have a nice trip!"
As Marco pressed the launch button of the catapult, Caesar was bounced out of the stern of the Splendor, and the sailors gathered at the stern to watch the excitement saw the giant god soldier fly out, and they all cheered and boiled.
If it had been a change of time, Edda, who loved the present, would definitely spin twice on the top of these excited guys and do two cool stunts. But time was limited at the moment, and Ada, who knew what to prioritize, went straight to the marked asteroids as soon as he got out of the capsule.
And among these goals, there is one that is destined to grab their attention! (To be continued......)
PS: Historically Edda. Mussolini is indeed a person, and even the history of the rivers and lakes says that she and Zhang Xueliang fell in love at first sight!
