Mecha War: Starting from Gundam OO

Hearing this, Romari and Yunoa were both startled and quickly asked: "Why did you say that? Qiao, what happened to you?"

"I was caught by VEGAN, met Mr. Izelkandar and..."

Qiao told his mother and aunt everything he encountered at VEGAN, including Yang Hui's scolding of him.

After listening patiently, Romari and Yunoa looked at each other, feeling like they couldn't laugh or cry.

"Qiao, you are not a traitor. Haven't you done nothing?"

"That's right, even though Uncle Yang Hui said that, he was just trying to stop you from doing wrong things. Since you didn't do those things and didn't agree to that person named Izelkandar, you're not a traitor."

Romari and Yunoa comforted each other one after another, but they were really a little scared. Fortunately, Yang Hui left quickly, otherwise Qiao might have become a traitor.

Qiao was still young, and he was too naive. Faced with an old fox like Izelkandar, he fell into the opponent's trap in a few moments, and was fooled into not knowing what was right and what was wrong.

"Is that so?" Qiao raised his head aggrievedly and confirmed.

"Of course, so you have to thank Grandpa Yang Hui. Do you understand?"

Not only Qiao, but also Luo Mari would like to thank Yang Hui. Luo Mari, who joined the Asuka family, understands what the surname "Asuka" represents.

Yang Hui is right. The Asuka family has a transcendent status in the Earth Federation. If Qiao, who bears the surname "Asuka", really agrees to Izelkandar's request, then together with Fleet and Yasem, he will have a very high position in the Earth Federation. Within a short period of time, the entire Asuka family will be disgraced and become the object of contempt for the entire federation.

Not only that, it is likely to involve Arugureas, Yang Hui and others who are closely related to the Asahino family, causing violent turmoil within the federal army.

"I see……"

"And Qiao... will you go home with me?" Romari said to Qiao.

"Eh? Why?" Qiao didn't react for a while and asked blankly.

"You are still too young, and you are too innocent. The battlefield is not suitable for you, Qiao."

"But I heard that grandpa also fought against VEGAN when he was a teenager, right? Grandpa Yang Hui, grandpa Graham, and grandma Youlin all did the same. Why can't I?"

"Do you want to fight?" Romary did not answer Qiao's question, but asked him in a different direction.

"I...I don't want to fight, nor do I want a war." Qiao replied in a low voice.

"In this case, you..."

"But I think I have to fight!" Qiao interrupted Romari's persuasion and said seriously, the confusion that had been surrounding his eyes disappeared a little.

"Why?" Romari asked Qiao's reason calmly without being anxious.

"Because I...I want to end the war, I don't want to see anyone die anymore!"

"But to end the war, someone must die. Qiao, do you still have the consciousness to kill people now?"

Romari didn't understand what fighting was, nor what war was. She chose to join the army just to follow in the footsteps of Asem and Gerhat. She had never thought about those things that were too complicated.

But after marrying into the Asano family, even if you avoid it deliberately, you can't avoid it completely. Under the influence of your ears and eyes, you gradually understand some truths.

For example, Asem chose to stay in the army and continue fighting because he wanted to protect the people he cared about.

Another example is that there is no right or wrong in war, only positions, and only two choices: killing and being killed.

"I..." Qiao was at a loss for words. After coming into contact with VEGAN's people, he could no longer kill them, or even treat them as enemies.

We are all human beings and should help each other, but why should we fight with each other?

He couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't kill anyone.

so……

"...I have the consciousness not to kill anyone!" Qiao said seriously.

That's right, wouldn't it be better if we didn't kill people?

"Do you have the consciousness not to kill people..." Romary looked at Qiao's young but serious face, smiled bitterly and shook her head.

Hasn't Qiao killed anyone before?

Of course he had killed him. Before he was kidnapped, he had never been soft on VEGAN, so his hands were already stained with blood.

And do people whose hands are stained with blood still have the qualifications to say this?

Romari doesn't know, but all she can do now is support her children in doing what they want to do.

"Then do it, Qio, do what you want, and be as close to the best as you can!"

"Mom..." Qiao's eyes were wet with tears. After so long, someone finally understood and supported him instead of opposing and scolding him, "Yes! I will do it!"

…

In the combat conference room, Yang Hui, Alugureas and Fleet were discussing combat arrangements.

"Lieutenant General, old commander, it's not easy to handle."

Aruguleas looked at the 3D holographic map with a headache. The Luna Base's prevention and control deployment was very strict. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to stop VEGAN for so many years. It could only be occupied by buying off the base commander.

Moreover, according to intelligence, in addition to the original base garrison, there is also a VEGAN fleet integrated for coordinated defense, which will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of the recapture operation to another level.

"Have you sent anyone to contact the original federal garrison?" Yang Hui asked.

"No, it's impossible to sneak in. VEGAN's defenses are like iron barrels, and we can't be sure what the situation is inside." Alugureas shook his head.

"That is to say... we don't know whether the rebels voluntarily surrendered to the enemy, or were they forced?"

"What the Lieutenant General means is... But even if there are forced people, first of all, we can't determine the number, and secondly, we can't pass the news to them, and we can't make relevant deployments." Aruguleas understood Yang Hui's point I mean, but I can't find a way to implement it.

If you can't determine the number, you can't decide on a plan of action. If there are few people, you can lurk inside, control key positions from the inside at critical moments, and conduct special operations for surprise attacks. If there are many people, you can directly break out in the battle and insert yourself into the enemy's back. One knife.

"...There must be a lot of people who are forced. After all, there are only a few people who are willing to betray their homeland for glory and wealth. If you can't get in touch in advance, just preach on the battlefield directly. Even if you can't immediately awaken the sense of belonging in their hearts, It can also make them hesitate and even cause mutual suspicion between them and VEGAN," Yang Hui suggested.

"Once the seeds of doubt are planted, the two sides will not be able to trust each other in battle, and their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced. At the same time, they will be forced to join us faster. After all, no one wants to hand their back to someone who can stab them at any time." Fleet added.

Although the troops stationed at Luna Base defected to VEGAN, VEGAN will not completely trust them. Mutual suspicion will create a gap, especially among the federal soldiers who were originally forced. The resentment will become bigger and bigger. As long as there is more fire, , can allow them to return to the federal army.

"In this case...in order to achieve the best results, they may need the help of their family members." Alugureas continued to add.

Hearing this, Yang Hui and others were stunned for a moment, praising that this was indeed a good idea. High-ranking officials, high salaries, glory and wealth... none of these conditions were more touching than the call of family members.

It's just that Yang Hui, Graham and Youlin all looked at Fleet at the same time, their eyes unclear.

"Ahem." Fleet coughed awkwardly. After all, he really couldn't refute the idea of ​​using his family.

"The next step is the deployment of our army." After talking about the previous topic, the next thing to discuss is also a headache. "VEGAN's Lagramis Fortress is still lingering near the earth's orbit. Troops need to be stationed in the earth's orbit to colonize it. The satellite's garrison cannot be easily mobilized, and the remaining combat power..."

"It's stretched." Everyone replied in a tacit understanding. The Federation's fleet in the universe is divided into three parts. The first is the garrison of the [Giant Ring] base, which has been wiped out together with the [Giant Ring] base; the second is the garrison station. The fleet at Luna Base has rebelled, and it is still unknown whether they can change their minds; what is left are the garrison fleets of various colonial satellites, and this part cannot be easily mobilized to prevent VEGAN from attacking in the east and secretly infiltrating the country.

Even if the Luna Base is recaptured and a large number of colonial satellites are occupied by VEGAN, it will not be considered a victory.

Except for these three major parts, the rest are scattered fleets. Although most of them are elite troops that perform tasks alone, the number is still too small. It is difficult to complete the operation to recapture the Luna Base. Even with Yang Hui and [ If the Tianren] brigade is here, there will also be a lot of casualties.

"..."

Neither Yang Hui nor Fleet could think of a good way to solve the problem of insufficient mobilization of combat power. After all, it was a flaw, and no matter how good their minds were, they couldn't make something out of nothing.

Moreover, VEGAN's Lagramis Fortress has been hovering over the earth. There is not much time left for the Earth Federation to slowly cultivate more troops. No one knows when the Sword of Damocles will fall.

"Use plasma submarine missiles..."

"No!" Yang Hui interrupted directly before Fleet could finish his words, "That is an expressly prohibited weapon and cannot be used."

"There is no need to talk morally with VEGAN..."

"What about our own people?"

"Since you have chosen to be a traitor, you are no longer one of our own..."

"Flit!"

Yang Hui shouted sharply, and Fleet's extreme roar stopped abruptly, and he lowered his head with a complicated expression.

"Don't let hatred blind you. Don't forget...VEGAN is also a human being! There is also the Luna Base. It was a base that the Federation spent a lot of manpower and material resources to build. Once it is destroyed, how many resources will it take to rebuild?"

"cut……"

"Flit!"

"I know, I won't mention it again."

Although he is old, Fleet still can't toughen his temper in front of Yang Hui. Maybe it's the shadow left by him since childhood that has always affected him. It's also possible that he knows that what Yang Hui said is right, but he doesn't want to admit it. .

Seeing that Fleet's paranoia and madness had been suppressed, Yang Hui did not teach him any more. Instead, he said to Alugureas: "The fleet guarding the earth's orbit is very close to Nordram. If it doesn't work, just put it aside." Move some of the orbital fleet and Nordram's troops away, and the remaining troops will jointly defend the two universes." Yang Hui suggested that this was no other option.

"Okay, I understand. I will recalculate the minimum strength guarantee and mobilize the troops." Alugureas nodded in agreement.
