Chapter 82: A New Order
"Can't let you be arrogant anymore. β
Char gritted her teeth, a look full of anger erupted from her eyes.
But, just anger is useless. Through the armor of the mobile suit, Amuro couldn't feel the feeling of being on his back.
In fact, apart from mentally humiliating Char's kick, Fang Cai's kick didn't really make Char any better. You must know that the armor of mobile suits is not used to modify the human form, and in this era when any weight is important, armor is actually there to protect itself.
If just one kick can cause any damage to the body, it is too much to look down on the designers of mobile suits.
With 1.6S of time, he quickly adjusted his posture, and the backpack behind the red giant roared. Char's Zagu suddenly turned into a red light and rushed towards Amuro.
"Drop it for me!"
Amuro roared. Until now, he has also felt Char's strength.
"Melee with this guy?" Amuro wasn't arrogant enough yet. Therefore, he would never dare to let Char continue to approach.
So, he raised the beam rifle in his hand and continued shooting.
A stream of red particles pierced through the dark curtain, but the attack was once again missed.
The particles of the red beam did not disappear in the void, and the red Zagu was getting closer and closer.
A shuttle of bullets fired, and Amuro dodged the giant shield at the same time, and the violent impact caused the shield to burst open at once.
The shield was scrapped.
"Damn...... "Amuro calculated quickly, "is there anything I can use?
He felt the nervousness of Long Holland.
If Long Jose suffered the pain of being less equipped than a man, then he is now suffering the sorrow of being less skilled than a man. After all, this is the second time he's piloted the Gundam.
Maybe his future is very bright, but now, he is just a rookie who has not yet grown up.
The sharp alarm of "Didi ......" continued to sound in Amuro's cockpit.
"It's so noisy!" Amuro frowned in annoyance. He squinted at the instrument panel, only to see that the beam rifle's energy indicator had reached the bottom of the danger - the cockpit warning was for that.
"Cut...... Don't you have any ammo?" Amuro felt troubled.
What to do......
Amuro didn't know.
At this moment, Gundam's communication was connected: "Amuro, what are you still doing over there, come back quickly!" Brad's cold face appeared on the screen in the lower left of Gundam.
"Ah...... I'm still at war with Char!" Amro replied bitterly.
"Fighting? Maybe it's better to be teased. He thought to himself.
"You're almost at the bottom of your weapons......! Come back as soon as possible! Lieutenant Colonel Yuan has already gone to pick you up. Brad responded.
"I understand!" replied Amuro. He knew that his situation was not good, and he quickly worked hard.
He wants to get rid of Char, but where is Char so easy to get rid of.
After a while, the energy in the Gundam Beam Rifle finally bottomed out. Amuro pulled the trigger continuously, but no light came out.
"Damn!" Amuro scolded.
But this is not a thing to help after all. Char over there seemed to have sensed the situation of the Gundam and was using his red Zaku to rush at him.
"Dada......" Zaku's machine gun spat out bullets and slammed into Gundam's stunned and sluggish body.
Amuro tried to dodge, but was hit by Char with several bullets.
The vibration of the mech made Amuro a little dizzy. Although he managed to make it, it was a terrible feeling.
"Is it over?" Amuro was a little desperate.
However, at this moment......
A red beam of light shot from the other side of the darkness, and the moment Char approached Amuro, it hit the red Zagu. A raging stream of particles destroyed everything in an instant. Although Char was still alive, the right shoulder of his newly acquired Zagu had disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
"Thirty kilometers away, is this long-range sniping?" Char smacked. Although the loss of his right shoulder and the imbalance of the body's counterweight were all controlled by his outstanding handling skills, the loss of an arm did weaken his combat power by half.
Slash people with a tomahawk in your left arm...... That still needs to be done with relevant parameter settings. And now, Char obviously doesn't have that time.
"Such firepower...... It's thirty percent stronger than the white guy, and the hit rate is not comparable to that rookie just now...... Is it another mech? I wondered why that guy didn't show up, it turned out to be following the battleship. Char frowned: "Trouble, there is that guy's interference...... Do you have to give up?"
Char sighed helplessly, and as soon as he pulled the MS's joystick, the red giant turned around, swaying in a changing trajectory, and flew in the other direction of the airspace.
He didn't know that as he left, Yuan Hao, who shot this shot, also breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Finally gone...... Otherwise......" Yuan Hao sighed.
Otherwise, what should he do? He couldn't say thisβhe still admired Char, and he still wanted to subdue this talent at the last moment of this war, so that he didn't think about killing him at this time.
Yes, he was very annoyed by Char's continuous entanglement.
"It's best to be able to push him back. The current Char is not a new human Char, and I still need him to grow further. Yuan Hao muttered, and then opened the contact with Amuro: "Come back quickly." Your Gundam needs to be repaired by all means. β
"Ah...... Yes!" Amuro snapped and agreed loudly.
Soon, the two converged. Yuan Hao led Amuro back to the white base, and he was busy again.
Despite the sacrifice of Sergeant Long Jose, the attack on Jean's supply ship was successful, coupled with the shot that Yuan Hao gave to Char, Yuan Hao believed that Char would not be able to attack him again in a short time. In this way, the greatest threat to the White Base was temporarily removed. The white base can advance gracefully and arrive at the Luna 2 fortress safely.
"As long as we can get to Luna-2, then we will be able to get enough supplies. The problem of insufficient troops that we are facing can also be solved very well - Luna 2 lacks everything, that is, there is no shortage of troops and supplies. At least there is no shortage of supplies from one of our ships. Brad finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he felt that the rest would be a little easier.
"Is that really the case?" Yuan Hao didn't think so. He knew what the White Fortress would be treated with when it arrived at Lunas II.
In fact, after SIDE7 was attacked by Jean, the Federation urgently recovered SIDE7's information, and has learned about the technology related to the production and construction of mobile suits. And with the news of the results of the SIDE7 raid battle, they have also determined what they can achieve.
"Since the power of the Gundam is not bad, we can just convert the Gundam system to Jim. Maybe it's a little bit of a regression, but that's okay, as long as we have enough MS, the heap can kill Jean to death. Yuan Hao estimated that those people in Zablo would say so.
Anyway, the Federation is very tight on Earth and in space, so they naturally have a reason not to respond.
β...... Well, so the attitude of the federal side towards the White Fortress is in a semi-abandonment. If that's the case, maybe we can let the White Fortress come to our territory and have a look......" Yuan Hao pondered for a moment, and suddenly had an idea in his heart.
Of course, he didn't say anything now.
Everything seems perfectly normal. After some negotiations, the Luna II readily accepted the exhausted battleship. But just when the people on the white base thought they could breathe a sigh of relief and get some preferential treatment, they were first intercepted by the cold muzzles of the guns and a group of soldiers with straight faces.
The garrison of the Luna II first stopped the refugees on board and prevented them from disembarking. After that, he was even more ruthless to put the group of people who are now controlling the White Base: Yuan Hao, Brad Noah, Milai Bazhou, Sarah Mars, Kobayashi Falato, Kai Sitting, Amuro Ray and others into custody and isolation, on charges of illegally using the latest combat weapons of the Federal Army, including the White Fortress and Gundam.
"It's a frustrating action. Listening to the orders of Colonel Vulcan at the Luna-2 base, Amuro, as a hot-blooded boy, instinctively wanted to resist.
However, he was stopped by the girl Flau Po standing behind him: "No! β
Amuro was silent, Brad and the others were also silent, they were all ordinary people, and they were naturally afraid of guns.
Yuan Hao wasn't worried about this, but he was also silent, and he looked coldly at the sneer on the corner of Colonel Vulcan's mouth, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a playful arc.
The height at which Brad and the others stood was not high enough, and it was completely impossible to figure out a series of activities at the top of the Federal Army. And Yuan Hao, benefiting from his interaction with Mao Xinglan and his own understanding of the world as a traverser, naturally understood that under this series of orders, there was a series of games about the internal forces of the Federation Army.
The Federation is not a monolith. Although it appears to be a whole country on the surface, beneath the surface unity, the bloc entanglements inherited from the old United Nations, and the conflicts of interest of the G8 bloc have caused divisions within the federation.
In a sense, the struggle within the Federation was fierce, but now they had such a big enemy as Jean, so they had to maintain policy unity. It's just that under such unification, federal executives will also compete for interests and issue some unpredictable orders.
These orders were the thoughts of some people at the top, and the people who were in front of them were in front of them.
"It's just...... It's just that you put this kind of thinking on others, but it implicates me. Hehe, I'll let you know that sometimes you can't stretch your hands out. Yuan Hao thought secretly.
While following those soldiers, Yuan Hao had already secretly pressed a button on the smart computer loaded with red on his arm.
button presses, and an instruction is issued. An encrypted wave of radio was smeared, and Luna II's communications to Earth were relayed to a certain part of Earth.
In that room, the red signal lights flashed rapidly. A soldier left behind saw all this, and quickly took out a special decryptor to parse the radio wave and quickly convey it upwards.
"Does anyone dare to do this?" Soon, the parsed content was sent to Mao Xinglan, Mao Xinglan looked at the message that Yuan Hao secretly sent from the Luna No. 2, and the corners of his mouth were also playful: "Those Mao Zi are really bold." Are they trying to get North American technology through this?
Well, although North America will definitely spread the technology of MS in order to defeat Jean, so that all theaters have the corresponding production capacity, they will certainly not spread the most cutting-edge one. Mao Zi must have thought of this, so he was in danger.
Special orders, special benefits. Speaking of which, Mao Zi did not violate the military order, on the contrary, his actions can be regarded as strictly and abnormally executing the military order.
It's really calculating. β
Mao Xinglan is not much smarter than Yuan Hao and them, but he is already a lieutenant general and can be regarded as a high-level member of the federal army. Standing at his level, he can learn more information, and he will naturally be able to understand the reason behind an order through various known clues.
"Colonel Vulcan is Russian and has a bit of a Greater Russianist tendency...... this is an introduction to the political outlook of Lieutenant Colonel Vulcan, and this alone says a lot.
Now that he understands the cause and effect of the matter, Mao Xinglan easily has a countermeasure. He quickly issued an order, a simple promotion order, to the federal personnel system through some channel.
Since the federation is a federation, the rank promotion within it must be interconnected. It's just that because the federation is very large and various forces are entangled, the promotion of the military rank of the federation has both loose existence and strict places. Basically, it is manifested as tight at the top and loose at the bottom - that is, the promotion card for the rank above the general is very strict, and the promotion card below the general level is relatively lax.
Of course, this so-called laxity is only relative. However, if a high-ranking military district general who sits on one side comes forward to make a request, the personnel side will not refuse to approve it no matter what.
So, under the care of some people, in just ten minutes, the entire promotion process was over.
After that, a request for video communication was sent directly to the Luna II fortress.
At this time, Yuan Hao and the others had been escorted to a gorgeous room for half an hour. During this half hour, no one spoke to them, and no one came to see them. They are like pets forgotten in some corner, uncared for.
"What the hell is going on?" the person who was taken into custody was a little apprehensive.
"Maybe they're figuring out what to do with us. Yuan Hao said calmly.
"Discuss?" said Brad, a little curious, "haven't they already decided?"
"Where...... Do you think their decision is the decision of the Federation?" Yuan Hao smiled and shook his head gently.
"So......" Milley seemed to understand something. As a woman from a big family, she understands more than ordinary people.
"Don't say it, someone has already come. Abruptly, Yuan Hao interrupted him.
