Chapter 553 Heading to the Next Goal
"Salute!"XN
When the eight Astray Gundams dragged Yang Hui back to the base of the 12th Independent Technical Unit, everyone ran out to greet them.
At first, when they saw that only eight Astray Gundams had returned, their hearts were lifted up, fearing that someone had not returned. Moreover, when they looked carefully, the missing one was Yang Hui's No. 1 machine, which made them feel like the sky was falling and the earth was cracking.
When they saw Yang Hui on the palm of No. 2 machine, they breathed a sigh of relief, began to cheer, and began to salute. No. 1 machine was gone, and the other eight machines were all scarred, and even several of them had several missing armors. The remaining armors were densely covered with craters and charred.
"At ease." Yang Hui waved to them to relax after landing.
After seeing each other again after many days, they looked around and found that a few people were missing, but the survivors were different. They were covered with a murderous aura like substance, a temperament of having experienced many battles, and the eyes of a wolf hidden deep in their eyes.
"Major, have you made great contributions again this time?" Someone asked expectantly.
"No, I met a tough opponent this time..." Yang Hui pretended to be distressed and regretful.
"What? Even the major felt it was tough? Who is it?"
"It's okay, major, as long as you come back safely, there are plenty of opportunities!"
"... That person is called Kycilia Zabi, quite tough, so we only destroyed the NY base, DC base, several observation posts, and one-tenth of the troops. Oh, by the way, we also destroyed several elite teams, what are they called... [Magazia] squadron? And a few [Midnight Fenrir] teams? Or [Bloodhound] teams?"
"………………"
Seeing Yang Hui's lost expression, everyone wanted to comfort him, thinking that they really encountered a huge obstacle in the North American war zone and did not achieve any results, but...
Versailles came too late and unexpectedly. The noisy scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone stared at Yang Hui with dead fish eyes.
"Major!" XN
Everyone roared with resentment. They were worried that Yang Hui would be discouraged because he fell from the peak to the bottom, but he stimulated them in Versailles!
"Hahahaha..." Jung and others laughed with their stomachs in the back. They knew that Yang Hui's bad taste was broken. They had been holding back and dared not laugh. Now after seeing the surprise and resentment of the newcomers, they finally couldn't help it.
Baki Lulu, Sima and South Banninger also hid in the back and laughed secretly. They were also people who knew Yang Hui's bad taste.
"Okay, everyone be quiet!" Yang Hui raised his hand and clenched his fist. Everyone quieted down and looked at Yang Hui with burning eyes. Although they were fooled by Yang Hui's bad taste, Yang Hui and his achievements were enough to excite them, not to mention that each of them drove MS to participate in the battle, and captured a lot of enemy planes, and also cooperated with the Luna to recapture the Orlando base that had fallen not long ago.
Before this, it was something they dared not even think about.
"Although I haven't received the specific battle report yet, I have seen your changes. I am very satisfied and proud of you. You have fulfilled your promise and returned with honor!"
"Yes!" XN
"But! I found... several companions did not come back."
The atmosphere changed instantly, and it sank at a speed visible to the naked eye. Yes, there were casualties in the 12th Independent Technical Unit. Compared with the contributions they made, the sacrifices of several people were worthwhile, and their victory was enough to be called a great victory, but for everyone, the companions who had been with them day and night not long ago were gone, and no matter how great the contributions were, they were boring and could not replace the sadness in their hearts.
"Raise your heads!" With a sharp shout, everyone looked up at Yang Hui, "The deceased companions are our driving force for progress! Because we have to continue to fight with them! Take back their share of honor and medals of merit!"
"Yes!" XN
"Disband and wait for the next order!"
"Yes!" XN
After everyone dispersed, Yang Hui found Baki Lulu, asked for details, and learned about the current progress of the federal army and what orders they had to execute next.
"Zeon's defense line retreated 50 kilometers. The Federation Army has fully entered and recaptured a lot of lost territory. However, since yesterday, the Zeon Army suddenly launched a counterattack. General Rebil ordered the large forces to stop and stabilize the front line and consolidate the lost territory for the sake of safety. We have not received the latest order, so we are stationed here and on standby." Baki Lulu reported.
"It seems that Kycilia Zabi really hates me to the core." Yang Hui smiled. Zeon's sudden retreat must be related to them. It was just that they didn't catch up with him before they regained their sanity and launched an attack again to recapture the territory taken away by the Federation. "How is the battle situation on the front line?"
"No problem for the time being. General Rebil has played all his cards this time. The hastily formed MS troops have been pulled up. The combat effectiveness is not bad and can stalemate with Zeon."
"Well... Contact Rebil and ask him to send someone to take over our defense zone. We will be transferred back to the Gaburo base for rest." Yang Hui said.
"You should do it yourself. I dare not talk to General Rebil like that." Baki Lulu is still the same Baki Lulu, a traditional iron-blooded soldier with a very firm concept of superiors and subordinates. Even if it is a different world, even if it is Yang Hui's lover, she will abide by the military regulations and rules of the Federation Army. This is engraved in Baki Lulu's bones.
However, there are still some changes. She will not refute Yang Hui's actions, and she will also regard Yang Hui's instructions as the top priority. It's just that she can't communicate with generals like Rebil on an equal footing like Yang Hui, unless she is at the same level as Rebil.
"Well, it's just right to ask if he has achieved his goal." Yang Hui took over the communicator of the communication control and gave them a look, asking them to leave.
When Yang Hui was the only one left in the communication room, he contacted Rebil, who was riding a large tray to testify to the rear of the federal army.
"This is the 12th Independent Technical Unit, Major Yang Hui, please help me connect to General Rebil."
"Please wait." Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for a major to contact Rebil directly. If you want to contact Rebil directly, you must be at least a colonel-level officer, but the communicator also knows that Yang Hui, a major, is different. The 12th Independent Technical Unit is a direct unit of Rebil, so he didn't ask anything else and directly transferred to Rebil.
"I'm Rebil, go ahead."
"The first squad has returned safely, and our unit has completed its mission. Please ask General Rebil to send troops to take over our defense zone and allow us to return to the Gaburo base for rest."
"Rejected, I will send troops to take over your defense zone, but you cannot return to the Gaburo base, but go directly to East Asia."
"East Asia?" Yang Hui frowned slightly, but soon thought of the reason.
"Yes, East Asia, during the time you were deep behind enemy lines, Zeon launched the third landing operation, and airborne troops invaded South Africa, Non-Protocol, and Australia. Now Australia and South Africa have been fully occupied by Zeon. Only the East Asian theater is still struggling hard. Next, you will go to the East Asian theater to support and eliminate the Zeon troops airborne in Non-Protocol."
"But our unit is in urgent need of supplies, especially the demand for MS is huge. Even now I don't have any available bodies." Yang Hui understood Rebil's idea, but the 12th Independent Technical Unit now seems to be magnificent and invincible, but it is already a spent force.
As the strongest fighter, Yang Hui lost his mecha. After a long period of high-intensity combat, the eight members of the first team also need time to rest and relax their tense nerves.
There are also newcomers. They are still using mass-produced mechas. Rebil promised that his Gundam Astray and full set of equipment are not in place yet, so he is not going to take them to the battlefield again for the time being.
"Where is your mecha?" Rebil asked in surprise. Although he knew that Yang Hui's mission this time was very dangerous, he didn't expect that even he would leave his mecha on the battlefield.
"I met Kycilia Zabi and was surrounded by her. In order to break out after completing the mission, the machine was damaged too much and could not be used anymore. I had to stay in Zeon. However, I gave up the explosion before, and Zeon might be able to pick up some fragments."
"You actually met that woman Kycilia? You are lucky to come back alive."
"She is indeed a tough opponent."
"I know your situation, but you can't return to the Gaburo base. As for the machine, the transport troops will directly send it to the East Asian theater, and you can receive it directly there."
"Hmm? General Rebil, the mass-produced machine can't support my driving skills."
"What was sent to you is not a mass-produced machine."
"Hmm? All completed?"
"Yes, I have fulfilled my promise, and that guy Gepu has been nagging me for a long time for this."
"I know, what about the result on the other side?" Yang Hui asked. This is what he cares about. If he hadn't brought down all the old guys in the Military Commission, he would not have participated in Rebil's plan even if the conditions were generous.
"The results will be out in a few days. Even if they are not traitors, they will be kicked out. Don't worry, no one can escape."
"That's good. The back is finally clean."
"Don't be careless, Major Yang Hui. We still have many enemies."
"Of course, I will be careful."
"Well, you can set off after the handover of the defense zone is completed. Although the East Asian theater is still in a stalemate, once the Zeon army in Australia is free, it will be unstoppable."
"Yes, General Rebil, I would like to ask, what is the situation in California?"
If the NY base and DC base are the symbols of North America, then the base in California is the most important strategic base in the entire North America, because it was after Zeon captured the California base that it had its own submarine force, and its advantage in the water expanded dramatically, and it also became the largest and most important strategic base in North America.
"The California base cannot send reinforcements for the time being. In order to preserve its strength, I asked the people in the base to retreat. Fortunately, you bought time, otherwise, they would not even have the chance to retreat."
"Let them blow up the base before leaving. Since you are giving up, don't leave anything to Zeon."
"Of course, do you have any other questions, Major Yang Hui."
"No."
"I wish you continue to create legends, Major Yang Hui. When the battle situation stabilizes, I will personally award you medals."
I said I haven't updated for a long time! Isn't it here?
Today is August 1st, which is also very special to me. I'll commemorate it!
