Chapter 243: I'm Trying to Use You
Everyone was silent, not knowing how to refute Yang Hui, especially Bucky Lulu.
As Yang Hui said, in their eyes, the waste recyclers are a pack of hyenas, who only know how to pick up garbage everywhere all day long, and belong to one of the most despised people.
But it is such a group of people, who came out of Yang Hui's mouth, but gave a completely different evaluation.
"But...... This...... Even if that's it...... The Eurasian Federation is a friendly force, and it is certainly better than ......"
"Just follow Yang Hui's suggestion, and we will go to the scrap recycler union to replenish it."
In the end, Malu didn't give Bucky Lulu a chance to argue, and directly decided to support Yang Hui's proposal.
The reason why I believe in Yang Hui is because Yang Hui is also on the ship of the Archangel, he can't joke with his life, and Yang Hui stands in a higher position than them, everything he sees, hears, and touches is not something they can compare, and she also knows a little bit about the dirtiness within the Earth Federation, so compared to the friendly forces that seem to be friendly but don't know what they will do, a simple trading relationship is more reassuring.
Maliu also took into account another point, and that was the pursuit of the ZAFT.
She didn't know if the Kreuzer team would continue to pursue the Archangel, and if they didn't, they would be happy, but if they did, it would be a trick to go to the Scrap Recyclers' Union, which was on the exact opposite line of defense to Artemis.
If Bucky Lulu can think that Artemis is the best choice for resupply, will the enemy not think of it? The Nazca-class is also a high-speed warship, what if the other side ambushes them on the way? Or if they are blocked in Artemis, what are they going to do?
Artemis' [Umbrella] can be called an invincible defense, but once it is opened, they can't enter or exit, so do they have to stay in Artemis for the rest of their lives, praying for reinforcements from the Eurasian Federation or the Atlantic Federation to help them?
And...... Also take into account the performance of the other four Gundams.
"Captain!"
"I'll explain it later, the most important thing right now is to get out of this place." Malu said to Barki Lulu.
“…… Understand. ”
"The bait is prepared, and at the same time as it is launched, the main engine is started, the route is corrected to go to the scrap recycler's union, and then in order to prevent detection, it is switched to inertial navigation and a second-stage combat configuration to ensure that the ship adjustment is completed in the shortest possible time."
"It takes about four hours to abscond to the coordinates marked by Yang Hui, and the rest can only be left to fate." Mu muttered to himself.
The Archangel set sail, and after throwing the bait, the main engine ignited, pushing the Archangel through the gap in the debris, and began its legendary life.
……
On the other hand, Kreuzer also decided on the next course of action, which was to continue the pursuit of the Archangel.
"I didn't expect the situation to develop like this." Captain Ardis was worried, he had never thought of destroying [Heliopolis], otherwise it would not only be the MS attack, but the battleship would have been on the battlefield together, "What should we do?" Destroyed the colonial satellites of neutral countries, the council must be ......"
"Where is the colonial satellite that creates a new MS for the Earth Army neutral?" Kreuzer asked rhetorically.
"But ......"
"Most of the residents have already escaped, so there won't be any major problems." As he spoke, Kreuzer looked at Captain Ardis, because of the mask that made it impossible to see his expression, "...... Compared to the tragedy of Blood Valentine's Day. ”
"......" Captain Ardis was silent.
The tragedy of "Blood Valentine's Day" is a scar in the hearts of all PLANT people that is difficult to heal.
Cosmic Century .2/14/70 Earth Federation to.. The agricultural satellite [Junius 7] in the T constellation launched a nuclear bomb that directly caused devastating damage and killed 243,721 people on board the [Junius 7]. Since February 14 is Valentine's Day, history calls it "Blood Valentine's Day".
This is also the turning point when the war between Earth United and PLANT enters a white heat.
"Can you capture the location of the new local warship?" Kreuzer asked the head of the radar.
"No, in the current situation...... Hard. ”
"Are we going to keep pursuing?" Captain Ardis asked, "But we don't have any MS available." ”
"Isn't there still one? Snatched a full 4 units from the Earth Army. ”
"You're going to throw that into battle? But ......"
"It's enough to extract the data, let me make the best use of it, zoom in on the map of the universe, and then telegraph the Kamov to expand the scope of the investigation."
"Yes."
The Celestial Map shows that Captain Kreuzer and Captain Ardis began to study the possible direction of the Archangel.
"They must have taken advantage of the chaos to leave this realm when [Heliopolis] collapsed." Captain Ardis judged.
"No, it's not possible, they should be hiding somewhere." Making a completely different judgment, Kreuzer carefully observed the map of the universe, and then made a suggestion, "Why don't you cast a net?" ”
"You're talking about...... Casting a net? ”
"That's right, let the Vethalius (Kreuzer's car, a Nazca-class battleship) be one step ahead and wait for the enemy ships here, while the Kamov follows in the course that intersects its orbital plane, while closely scouting it." Kreuzer arranged.
"This line ...... Are you heading to Artemis? But if they flee to the moon......"
"A large heat source was detected, and according to dimensional analysis and prediction, the target turned by the Earth's gravity and went to the Atlantic Federation headquarters of the Earth Army on the surface of the moon."
"Captain......" Captain Ardis was convinced of his judgment, and the Archangel was going to go directly to the lunar base.
But Kreuzer saw through the Archangel's trick at a glance and decided that it was a decoy: "That's a decoy." ”
"But...... Just in case, you should check with the Kamov......"
"No, they're going to head for Artemis, and what happened just now has made me even more convinced, and the Vethalius has set sail to connect with Selman."
However, Kreuzer accurately judged the bait, but he also fell into a blind spot in his thinking, misjudged the destination of the Archangel, and the strategy of attacking back and forth was bound to fail.
……
Successfully misled the Kreuzer team, the Archangel also entered a short period of stability, the bridge can leave the staff on duty, and there is no need for everyone to stay on the bridge, so Yang Hui also left the bridge to find Kira, although the cause of driving the Strike Gundam is different, but Kira should still be confused and struggling at this time, since he led him on this road, he naturally has to take responsibility.
"Yo, Kira, the battle was hard before."
Yang Hui came to the ship, and at this time he was confirming the identities of all the refugees, and Kira and the others were naturally resting here, but there was one more person than before, that is, the poor girl who had been spurned and cursed by countless fans, but was just killed by the war.
The bright red long hair is tied in a single ponytail, the delicate face, and the pink dress are refreshing and cute, but next to Sai, with an uneasy expression on her face, she is completely in the posture of a lady in danger.
"Yang Hui ......"
"Yang Hui, we ...... What do we do now? Where is the ship going? ”
Compared to Kira's complicated expression, Thor asked bluntly, because they were also forced to get on the ship, and they had already guessed that the ZAFT army would always chase this ship, and it was even more dangerous to stay on this ship, and they wanted to get off the ship as soon as possible and stay away from the whirlpool of war.
"This ship is going to the scrap recycler union for resupply, if you want to get off the ship, you should be able to do it, although the group of scrap recyclers see the money, but I will help you pay for the return to Earth." Yang Hui replied.
"Scrap Recyclers' Union? What is that? Milia asked.
"I've heard of them." Compared to the others, Sai, who is from a better family, is a little more knowledgeable, "They are a group of space nomads who make a living by searching for space junk everywhere in the universe. ”
"What? Isn't that just a bunch of rags? Why do you want to go to them for supplies? "As a pampered daughter, Frey doesn't know much about things, and likes to judge others before she knows.
"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, the eldest lady of the Astar family, although they make a living by picking up space junk, there are still many talents in it, otherwise it is impossible to survive in the universe alone, let alone form an organization that is related to all major organizations." Yang Hui said lightly.
In some ways, Frey does deserve sympathy, but who is immune to being in the midst of the whirlpool of war? This is not a reason to endorse what she did, and ......
Let's take a look at the environment, your current situation is to send people under the fence, who to show as a big lady? This is no longer pretentious, but stupid.
"You! How can you say that about me? Aren't they a bunch of scavengers? Even if you have the ability, you can pick up the rags! ”
"Alright, Frey." Sai quickly calmed Frey and apologized to Yang Hui, "I'm sorry, Yang Hui, she doesn't know ...... Frei"
"It's okay, it's just that you'd better let her restrain the eldest lady's temper, and getting rid of the ZAFT army for the time being doesn't mean that we are completely safe."
"I got it......"
If it was someone else, even if the other party was reasonable, Sai would help Frei speak, but Yang Hui's identity made Sai unable to harden his temper, firstly, the other party took advantage of it, and secondly, Yang Hui could be regarded as saving their lives, if they were allowed to get off the ship at that time, they would now have become a member of the space junk with the collapse of [Heliopolis], and finally ...... Yang Hui is the top figure of Orb, and as a national of Orb, they dare not offend Yang Hui.
"Then again, Kira......"
Yang Hui ...... I ......"
"Let's go, let's talk."
“…… Good. ”
"Wait! Do you still want Kira to fight? He's not a soldier, so why would you do that? Thor stops Kira from leaving Yang Hui and confronts Yang Hui.
“…… I didn't force him to do anything, it was his own choice. Yang Hui stared at Thor and the others and said.
"But ......"
After returning to the ship, Thor and the others also asked Kira why he continued to fight, and Kira also told everyone about Yang Hui's conversation with him, and everyone also felt that Yang Hui was very despicable, and seemed to give Kira a choice, but in fact he didn't, just forcing Kira to fight instead of him.
"Thor, stop talking."
"But you don't want to fight, do you?"
"Yes, but ......"
"You're a bastard! In vain, I will treat you as a good person! Thor couldn't find an excuse to convince Kira, and in a fit of rage, he directly grabbed Yang Hui's collar and raised his fist to beat Yang Hui.
"Thor! Stop it! ”
"Don't be impulsive! He's ......."
"So what? Can the young master of the Yang family use us ordinary people at will? ”
"Thor......"
"If you want to beat me, feel free, I won't fight back." Yang Hui looked at the imposing Thor indifferently, as well as the unkind Sai and the others, if they were patient before, Thor's words aroused all the dissatisfaction in their hearts.
"You bastard......"
"That's right, I forced Kira to fight, and I deliberately induced you to board the Archangel number, and I am indeed using you, I will not refute this."
"Yang Hui! You ......"
"But everything I do, it's for Orb." Yang Hui said to everyone in a sonorous voice, and his attitude and reality made them breathe for a moment, "As long as Orb can become stronger, can break free from the current shackles, and is no longer under the control of the Earth Union and PLANT, I will use everything that can be used, including myself." ”
“……”
Seeing that everyone was silent, Yang Hui finally said to Kira: "I'm going to Gnaku, you decide whether to come or not." ”
After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving behind everyone with complicated expressions.
