Chapter Eighty-Eight: Preparations for War
Everything is going in the direction of the "best". For the people on the White Fortress, this is the most comfortable moment they have ever had these days. This is true for both regular soldiers and refugees on warships.
For the people on the White Fortress, who have been pursued by Char and have no peace, it is natural for everyone to feel happy to have a place to sleep, a basin of hot water to shower, and a hot meal to eat. They had never felt that these things that seemed ordinary in the past would bring such a touch to them at this time.
"I'd rather be a peace dog than a chaotic person!" Yuan Hao said with a sigh looking at the heartfelt smiles on the faces of those refugees.
"So, we need to protect such smiles...... Some people say that peace is a grave for a soldier, but at this moment I think that peace is actually a soldier's medal. Because of the great power, you have the peace that you can keep. Coming to Yuan Hao's side and standing with him on the highway in the port area and looking down on the busy situation in the port area, Lieutenant General Mao Xinglan smiled faintly.
"Well, that's right!" Yuan Hao nodded, and then as if he had thought of something, he suddenly turned his head to Mao Xinglan: "Why do you have time to come here? Right now, the big war is coming, don't you need to go back to the town? Although I expect that you must have something, shouldn't the people below be responsible for those things?"
"If I were responsible for everything in a big war, then this great army would not be able to sustain itself. You know, we pay attention to the fact that I am a brick of the revolution, and I need to move it wherever I need it. Mao Xinglan quipped: "The General Staff has already arranged everything. I'm just an idler there, just for show. ”
"Hey...... Aren't we capitalist now? You are so blatant with red slogans, and you are careful to be accused of being anti-human rights. Yuan Hao responded with a smile.
"Isn't the freedom of capitalism just as long as you have the power to do whatever you want? Moreover, we are capitalism with Chinese characteristics!" Mao Xinglan emphasized this point, "and I am also busy now. I'm here to discuss something with you. ”
"What is it?, is it related to the White Fortress?" Yuan Hao asked incomprehensibly.
"It's about the White Fortress, and it's about you. Mao Xinglan nodded lightly, and the expression on her face was even a little solemn.
"Oh, then I'm going to hear it. Yuan Hao nodded thoughtfully: "Is it because of the Duzhou counteroffensive?"
This is the big thing in China at the moment, so Yuan Hao has this guess.
"The Dushu counteroffensive is the first shot of our encirclement and suppression of the Jean army. We want to win no matter what. To be on the safe side, I applied to Zabro's side for war zone support...... But the application was denied. North America did not allow us to mobilize the air forces of the Japanese theater, and the Russian side only agreed to cooperate with us in sealing the border. In this battle, we can only rely on ourselves. Mao Xinglan briefly explained the situation he was experiencing now.
"Then ......" Yuan Hao hesitated slightly.
"Those people have really bad intentions and want to see us lose...... In this way, the Odessa operation they planned would have a reputation as the first shot in the counteroffensive against Jean. Those Europeans have big hearts. ”
Mao Xinglan said, pouting disdainfully: "It's just that their idea is good, but the federation is not opened by their family." The old man was willing to let the White Fortress join us, and he wanted the White Fortress to take on more important responsibilities......
The RX-79G Marine Gundam has already been produced in mass production, and a number of rudimentary gadgets with the RGM-79 Jim designation have been produced, but the Federation is still blank for the use of Mobile Suits in large-scale battles, and Rebiel hopes to see the tactical use of the MS in the Toshu Counterattack. ”
"So......" Yuan Hao raised his eyebrows.
"The arrangement of the MS troops, I plan to leave it to you...... You are the one who has the most experience in this area in the military. Mao Xinglan said his request: "Now that the White Fortress is still in your hands, then continue to control him, at least until the capital is recovered." ”
"Is that so?" Yuan Hao understood a little, but he still had his own worries: "I'm not from a military school, this tactic or something...... I'm not familiar with it. ”
"It's fine...... Isn't there Brad on the white battleship, that guy is a top student of the British Military Academy, and his level should still be somewhat. And I will also send the top students of the Shijiazhuang Infantry Academy to you...... In short, with a staff officer, your life will be a little better. As she spoke, Mao Xinglan smiled a little weirdly.
Looking at Mao Xinglan's smile, Yuan Hao was a little confused: "What is he laughing at?"
Yuan Hao's doubts were perfectly explained when a shadow appeared in front of him with a report letter from the Huaxia military.
UC0077 graduated from the Shijiazhuang Infantry Academy in Huaxia, and was later transferred to the National Defense Staff Headquarters as a staff officer. He is now ordered to serve as the adjutant of Colonel Yuan. What appeared in front of Yuan Hao was a beautiful woman with natural black waist-length hair and black eyes, and she was wearing a federal military uniform with an ordinary design mainly pink and ivory, which not only did not diminish her beauty, but even looked gorgeous because of herself.
As far as Yuan Hao is concerned, she definitely has the beauty of the rank of the concubine.
"Send such a big beauty to follow me?" Yuan Hao felt that Mao Xinglan definitely had a black tail hidden in his pants.
"Is this to see me as a womanizer? Although the faces of Shi Fei Xuan and Fu Junwu are both amazingly beautiful, it doesn't mean that I must be ...... with such a beauty by my side" Yuan Hao thought and shook his head gently.
However, this cannot be changed - Mao Xinglan has left here, the order has been issued, and Yuan Hao can't find a channel to raise relevant objections.
If you can't think about it, you can only accept it. So, Yuan Hao took Yang Xue into the bridge of the White Fortress.
When he entered, there were still people talking and laughing on the bridge, but after he entered, almost everyone's eyes went straight back, falling on the one behind him.
The huge bridge seemed to be blown up and brightened up in an instant. And Yuan Hao estimated that if everyone had glasses, then now he would definitely be able to hear the shattering sound of glasses falling to the ground.
"This is ......," someone asked stupidly because of Yang Xue's beauty.
This is a blonde man, and his appearance is quite handsome, giving people a bold and cheerful feeling. His name is Egger, a reinforcement from the Luna 2, and he is currently in charge of missile launch control on the bridge.
"This!" Yuan Hao grabbed his hair: "She is my adjutant, her name is Yang Xue!"
For the introduction of beauties, Yuan Hao only has this sentence. Just as he said this, he leaned slightly to cut Yang Xue's face out of Egg's sight.
"Since I'm 'my' adjutant, I can't let other people's eyes stare at random. Unconsciously, Yuan Hao also had some kind of idea of monopolizing beauty. This is quite a special idea, and it is also a novel experience for Yuan Hao himself. When facing Fu Junwu and Concubine Xuan, Yuan Hao rarely had such thoughts.
"Alright, now deliver the military order. After adjusting his position without revealing a trace, Yuan Hao cleared his throat and said such words.
"Military order, what military order?" everyone on the bridge wondered.
"I hereby recruit the Pegasus-class assault landing ship belonging to the Zabro base of the Federal Army, and the board number SCV-70 White Fortress temporarily joins the Huaxia Theater and participates in the Duzhou counteroffensive as the flagship of the Fourth Mobile Assault Division. The commander of the 4th Mobile Assault Division was Colonel Yuan Hao. Second Lieutenant Brad Noah was promoted to Lieutenant and remained the captain of the White Fortress. Yuan Hao simply read out the order jointly issued by the Earth Federation Army Headquarters and the Huaxia Theater.
"Hey, don't we need to go to Zabro?" said Brad, looking a little surprised.
"It's not that you don't need to go to Zabro, it's that you're postponing it. Now that you're here, let's take part in this great battle first!, General Rebier, I hope you can gain more experience. As far as that general is concerned, you are the vanguard of the Federal's experimental MS tactics. Yuan Hao said.
"I see...... Well......" Brad seemed to want to say something. Yuan Hao's voice sounded again, and he seemed to know what Brad meant: "In addition, all the civilians who have joined the White Fortress since SIDE7, the Federal Army intends to recruit you to enlist and enjoy the treatment of second lieutenant ranks. After all, your experience is what the Federation lacks. ”
"So we can't go back in time?" asked Sarah Maas.
"Of course, you can not respond to the conscription of the Federation, and Lieutenant General Mao also promised that if you want to be discharged from the army, he will give you a good placement. Everything will bring you back to the original ......" Yuan Hao shook his head lightly: "All this looks good, but can you still bear it? You have been through so much, and these have become an indelible mark on you." Ask your hearts, can you go back to the old ones and get along with the civilians who don't know anything?"
"...... this," the group asked. They whispered.
Yuan Hao didn't urge them, and let them discuss with each other.
He waited quietly. I don't know how long it took, but Sarah was the first to stand up: "I am willing to respond to the call of the Federation." ”
"It's really courageous!" Yuan Hao nodded approvingly.
Once the first person came forward, there were many more who responded: Milai Hachishu, Amuro Ray, Kobayashi Falato, Kai Sitting, Fura Po...... The teenage girls who came out of SIDE7 and took important positions on the White Fortress all planned to stay.
Yuan Hao promoted them to the rank of second lieutenant according to the orders of the military district, and according to their wishes and abilities, their positions were adjusted accordingly with reference to Brad's suggestion: Kobayashi Hayabusa and Kai Sitting were appointed pilots of Steel Tank and Steel Cannon respectively to cooperate with Amuro in the battle.
"Hmm...... That's pretty much the MS configuration on the White Fortress. After completing the supply tomorrow, we will depart from the Qingzhou base and head to the Taihang Mountain base for final preparations. We'll be there with the 6th Mobile Brigade and the 7th Mobile Teaching Group, which are under our command. Yuan Hao said.
"Is it a concentrated use of MS?" Hearing Yuan Hao's order, Brad was slightly stunned, and then understood Huaxia's tactics of using MS.
"Well, that's right!" Yuan Hao nodded slightly.
After all, the MS is more flexible than traditional mobile weapons. Brad offered his opinion.
"Well...... this Yuan Hao, who is not very familiar with military tactics, can't refute his words at all.
"Lieutenant, although the MS is being used for the first time in our army, don't you think that the MS is a bit similar to the tank......? In the old era, the theory of armored swarms eventually replaced the theory of decentralized assault. The concentration of heavy armor forces is proven by a series of past events. After Yuan Hao was refuted, Yang Xue, as Yuan Hao's adjutant, directly refuted his superior.
"But MS is not a tank! there is a difference between the two. Brad insisted.
"But the positioning of the two is very similar. We can fully think that the MS is a tank in the Minovsky environment, isn't it........." Unlike the beautiful and delicate on the surface, Yang Xue, who has entered the professional state, is extremely sharp.
"This ......" Now it was Brad's turn to run out of words. But it can be seen that he is still dissatisfied with this. He felt that Yang Xue's statement was incorrect: "Although Jean has a mobile attack army, and even a large establishment such as MS brigades and divisions, they have never really invested in such an organization in the battle." ”
"Hey...... It's not clear who is right and who is wrong, but I think we'll go to the battlefield and see. Yuan Hao persuaded them like this.
After all, the battlefield is the best way to test whether a tactic is effective. ”
"That's right!" both of them fell silent.
Although they all have their own dissatisfaction, this disbelief is based on believing that they are right.
There is no basis for what you say, seeing is believing, whether it will work or not, then you naturally have to take it out and take a look.
In short, both of them breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts because of this.
Two days later, the White Fortress completed its replenishment and set sail from the base of Qingzhou Port to the west to the base of Taihang Mountain.
And at the same time as the White Fortress was heading west, Char Aznab, who was still unrelenting about the White Fortress, also led the newly replenished soldiers and Zaku to descend to Earth. With Jean guaranteeing control of the Celestial Domain, he certainly didn't encounter any accidents, and easily landed at Jean's California base.
This is the most important base of the Jean Army in North America, and it is also controlled by Char's military academy classmate Karma Zabi.
Although Char's reputation in space is no longer very good due to a series of failures, on Earth, on Karma's side, he still encounters Karma's warm treatment.
"Karma, I'm here for the Trojan. The two met happily, and Char directly informed Karma of his purpose.
