Chapter 521 Are All the Federation's MS Monsters?
A new Musai-class warship roams freely in the silent deep space, and a relaxed atmosphere spreads inside the warship.
"Major, are we really going to wait like this?"
"Do you think we are only going to attack Luna II with Tianm in charge with just one Musai? Lieutenant Deren."
"Of course not, it's just..."
"If a hunter is impatient, he won't be able to catch his prey, Lieutenant Deren."
"Yes... I understand, but... is it really on Luna II? The Federation's [V Plan]."
"Isn't it our mission to confirm its existence?"
"But we can't confirm anything if we keep waiting like this."
"Wait another week. If there is still no movement from Luna II, we can only ask the intelligence department for other suspicious targets."
"I understand."
Char looked at the empty universe and became a little impatient. The information he got from Dozle was originally from spies in the [V Plan] project. The last piece of information he received was that they were about to be transferred to Luna II to join a new independent force, and then they lost contact.
Char judged that these spies should have died in the line of duty, and he had been waiting around Luna II for almost a month based on the intelligence, but Luna II had not made any movement, which made Char begin to doubt the authenticity of the intelligence.
Although he was unwilling to work for the Zabi family, he now needed to hide under the eyes of the Zabi family. As the saying goes, the darkest place is the most dangerous place, and the safest place.
Moreover, he could also strike at the Federation, which had once made his father work hard to deal with and was suspected of assassinating his father. He was very happy.
"Huh? What is that?"
"What happened?"
"There seems to be a fire in that direction."
"What?" Char could not sit still, and immediately grabbed the optical observation equipment and observed carefully, "That's it! Finally found it!"
More than a dozen fires, slowly moving ship shadows like wreckage, are definitely the Federation's fleet. Now the Federation's space fleet is only the fleet led by Tianm, to which Luna II belongs. Judging from the number of fires, it will not be a large-scale attack.
As for the small fleet... it is unrealistic to stop the large Zeon force. As for the patrol fleet, this place is a bit far from Luna II. So... the small force carrying out the mission alone is likely to be related to the [V Plan] mentioned in the intelligence!
"Major Char..."
"Prepare the naval guns, lock the enemy ships, and the MS troops will attack and capture this fleet."
"But... if the observation is correct, the number of enemy ships is several times ours. Will it be difficult to capture this fleet..."
"That's why I'm here, isn't it?"
"Yes! Got it!"
As expected of Char, the prestige of [Red Comet] is very high within the Zeon army, and just the name can bring courage to people.
As always, Char did not change his driving suit and directly boarded his red Zaku II, ready to attack, but received a report that shocked him.
"Major! MS, it's the Federation's MS!"
"What!? How many?"
"Nine! Heading straight for my ship!"
"The MS troops will attack immediately, the Farmer will slow down, the others will cover me, destroy all the enemy planes, and then slowly retreat." Char didn't believe that the Federation had built MS in such a short time. He thought it was still a toy like the Iron Cavalry, but considering the enemy's MS troops' containment, the enemy fleet discovered their existence.
Without the possibility of a sneak attack, it would still be difficult for a Musai and six Zakus to capture the enemy.
For the sake of safety, Char decided to retreat temporarily, destroy the enemy's MS troops himself, give the Federation fleet a warning, and then wait for an opportunity.
As a result... After the attack, Char saw the appearance of the Federation MS and immediately gave up the idea. He immediately ordered: "All machines disperse, retreat at full speed while holding firepower! I will buy time for you!"
...
Ten minutes ago, Hua Ken shared the situation of finding Mu Sai with Yang Hui. Originally, he planned to be on guard but not fight, and prioritize the escort mission, but Yang Hui made a suggestion that shocked Hua Ken and immediately opposed it.
"Are you serious? Major Yang Hui! Do you know what you are talking about!?"
"I know very well, Lieutenant Colonel Hua Ken, but we have been discovered by the enemy. If we don't drive them away, we dare not carry out the landing operation at all."
"Then I will use the ship's guns to kill them directly. The new equipment you provided supports artillery warfare in a high-concentration Minovsky particle environment..."
"No, Lieutenant Colonel Hua Ken, it is a good opportunity for our MS troops to repel them alone. The test is just a test, but it has never been carried out in actual combat. The battlefield we are about to join will be a large-scale melee and chaotic battlefield. It is too dangerous to use it in the first battle. Now there is a small force in my In front of us, it is the best for the first battle and actual combat test. "
"..." Hua Ken was silent. He knew that what Yang Hui said was right, but this was only from Yang Hui's own perspective. From Hua Ken's perspective, he would definitely not agree. "[V-X Project] is related to the future of the Federation. Once it fails, do you know the consequences? "
"This is the opportunity to prove that it is successful, isn't it? No matter how good the test performance is, it is just a test, not actual combat. The development of all weapons needs to get the final results in actual combat. If we fail here, we should not develop the wrong results of this plan and let more soldiers lose their lives in vain! "
“…” Hua Ken felt Yang Hui’s determination and was convinced by Yang Hui’s reason, “How sure are you?”
“From my personal point of view, 100%.” He was so confident. The UC version of Gundam Astray is also Gundam. Except for the name and shape, it is no different from the RX-78 series Gundam originally developed by [V Plan].
If a rookie who drives a Gundam while reading the manual can win one-on-two, and a group of people who have undergone formal training and led by the monster Yang Hui can’t win when they fight six, then it must be the deliberate manipulation of a certain god.
"...What about objective judgment?"
"You'll know after you fight."
"I know, I'll leave it to you, Major Yang Hui, use the MS you built to teach the arrogant Zeon a hard lesson!"
"Understood, Lieutenant Colonel Huaken."
"Good luck in fighting."
After the communication ended, Yang Hui looked at the seven subordinates who had changed into their driving suits and were sitting in the cockpit excitedly on the split screen, and raised his mouth: "Did you hear it all?"
"I heard it!"X8
"Attack, get a good start!"
"Understood!"X8
The hatches of the four Columbus-class transport ships opened one after another, and nine Gundam Astrays of different colors attacked from the Columbus-class transport ships one after another, forming a pointed cone array, dragging eight neatly arranged tail flames towards the Musai-class.
The leader is a gray-purple painted one, holding two beam rifles in hand, with two signs hanging on his shoulders; a dark blue painted one and a dark gray painted one, with a standard shield and a gun, followed closely, followed by a red, a blue and a brown. The red one holds two twin-mounted Gatling guns + shield attack system, the blue one has no beam rifle and shield, but a high-powered super mega particle cannon, the brown one holds a strong shield in both hands, but has two more 230MM cannons on his shoulders, and the following three are the classic blue, white and red painted one, the red and black painted one, and the blue-gray painted one, which also carries standard weapons.
At the same time, all the Astray Gundams are equipped with space-specific propulsion backpacks on their backs, four balance wings and two propulsion nozzles, and two balance nozzles on the sides. The balance wings are equipped with eight missiles for MS.
"Hmm? That's it!"
"Red Zaku, so fast! It's Char! [Red Comet] Char!"
Now both sides can observe the enemy's MS with their naked eyes. Seeing the red machine approaching them like a meteor, the confident people's expressions became solemn. They couldn't help but think that they encountered a big boss like [Red Comet] in the first battle. Isn't it too difficult?
"Char? Leave him to me, you are responsible for the other enemy planes, don't let them be shot down."
"Understood." X8
Hearing this, the seven people who were originally very nervous relaxed. Char's record is indeed terrible, but they have not experienced it personally, and Yang Hui... that is a monster who likes to bully people!
"It's you, Char, haha, you have been waiting for a long time, right? Come and play?" Yang Hui raised the corner of his mouth and immediately issued an order to disperse, and then flew towards the red meteor alone.
"That's it!" Seeing an MS he had never seen rushing straight towards him, Char felt a sense of crisis that he had never felt in the chaotic battlefield of the Battle of Loum. He did not dare to distract himself to contain other people, and concentrated on dealing with the enemy who came to his door.
"Swish~"
Seeing the other party raise his hand, a second before the brilliant beam burst, Char pulled the joystick and avoided the incoming beam at a thrilling distance, and kept rushing towards the enemy plane, but the enemy plane's beam was continuously blocked, forcing him to dodge left and right, and draw a peach charm in the universe.
"What on earth is this..." Char gritted his teeth and kept dodging the enemy plane's shooting. He had no chance to get close, and...
What made Char most frustrated was that he saw that the other party did not want to kill him, because every shot of the other party accurately blocked his way, forcing him to change direction, and then another shot blocked him in front of him, forcing him back to the original road, and repeating over and over again.
It was like an invisible birdcage, so that Char, the little bird, could only move in the birdcage and could not fly freely.
"Ding~"
"What is this? This feeling..." Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through Char's mind, and he suddenly had a feeling that the other party's pilot gave him a very familiar feeling. This person... he might know him.
But this feeling was erratic and elusive. Just when he wanted to grasp it, it disappeared, and when he came to his senses and gave up, it appeared again.
"Damn, what on earth is this!?"
"Major! Major! Ah~!!!"
Just after hearing a call for help, Char saw his subordinates being pierced through the chest by a beam of light, and immediately exploded, becoming fireworks in the universe.
"One shot has the power of a cruiser gun!? Hey! Are all the MS of the Federation monsters!?" Char sweated profusely. Fortunately, he was used to dodging, otherwise...
"Retreat! Retreat at full speed!"
"Understood!" XN
