Gundam: The wind blowing through the universe - Chapter 427 Win and Lose
In the spring of CE74, East Asia received two completely opposite news on the same day. First, the Apsaras on the ground directly took over the most important mineral base in Eurasia with a small test, and then the fastest-moving synthetic mobile brigade had already Interspersed with Lake Baikal.
But the second news was not so wonderful. East Asia’s only stronghold in the universe, Artemis Fortress, fell. Not only did the fortress fall, but according to survivors’ descriptions, the entire fortress had its energy system detonated from within. This fortress, which was said to never fall, changed hands in just three years.
Judging from the subsequent assessment of the damage to the fortress by the investigation team sent by East Asia, Artemis will not be able to restore the use requirements of a cosmic fortress in the short term. In other words, the entire earth circle is still in addition to Orb’s Heavenly Pillar. Apart from Genesis Alpha halfway there, there are only two bases on the moon that can slightly block PLANT’s progress.
As soon as the news came out, Orb’s huge pressure doubled again. After the collapse of LOGOS, the current lunar base was a mixed bag. All three Earth Alliance companies had troops stationed in it. Among them, the East Asians were ambitious, and the Atlantics were unable to defeat them. Eurasia is the worst, and the entire country is in a state of homeless panic. Such a joint army, let alone forming a team to face the enemy, is the only requirement for these people to avoid internal strife.
After the Daedalus Base was razed by Silver Thunder, almost everyone who knew the details of the base was dead, not to mention that Orb was only open to partners of the Human Revolutionary Alliance for the time being. Now no one knows about this base. How powerful is the old Union Army secret base renamed ‘Granada’?
The weakness of the moon and the loss of Artemis directly exposed the Pillar of Heaven. Genesis α still has 2-3 days to arrive, and even if such a large man-made object reaches the predetermined space, it still needs to undergo posture adjustment and other operations. In order to be put into use, according to Shuguang Society’s most conservative estimates, it will take at least a week to play the role of Genesis.
Therefore, at an extremely sensitive moment, the Heavenly Pillar became the only shield for the countries in the Earth Circle. Everyone knew that the Silver Thunder was stationed at the Heavenly Pillar, so this national treasure that can be projected globally must naturally bear the responsibility. Take on the defense mission of the New People’s Revolutionary Alliance.
But only Orb himself knows that the person who can activate the silver thunder is not in Orb at all. Not to mention the first choice, the second, third and even fourth choices are all not in Orb. According to the results of many deductions by the Ministry of National Defense, the current situation in the sky is not Orb. Zhi Yuzhu couldn’t stop ZAFT’s attack at all. Mina immediately began to arrange for the disassembly and packaging of the MS production line. As long as the power system of the Orb Lion was installed, he would directly drag his family and move them to Granada. Thanks to Atlantic Ocean Gift, at least there is a requiem to rely on.
However, Atlantic did not have time to complete the construction of all relay points. Shortly after the fall of Daedalus Base, Orb sent the Susano and Tsukuyomi to receive the relay points, and is now stepping up the work to collect them.
During this period, Hilde discussed with Mina whether to publish the Requiem, because based on her review of Siegfried’s memory and the fact that Orb and Durandal had competed several times in the air, it was hoped that It is hard for Ed himself to believe that Durandal, who had that kind of means, would have allowed Requiem to hit the PLANT mainland in the original timeline.
Mina first confirmed Hilde’s guess. Now that the nuclear bomb crisis is clearly directed and acted by Durandal, it is not incomprehensible to think about it in a big way. It turned out that there was no nuclear bomb and it was replaced by Requiem.
But at the same time, Mina also rejected the suggestion of making the requiem public. In response to Hilde’s concerns, she just asked a rhetorical question, “If it is made public, will PLANT let us go?”
Whether it is the temporarily vague destiny plan or the imminent new human revolution union, PLANT wants to live a nourishing life, live an extraordinary life, or even live forever in the enviable and unobtainable distorted gaze of natural people, Durandal cannot let it go. The Human Revolutionary Federation doesn’t care. Even if Artemis is lost in East Asia and Orb’s South America is still in rebellion, it won’t take ten years. As long as Mina is given a normal Siegfried, as long as three years she will be sure not to interfere in the terminal. Under the premise, troops were sent to push PLANT.
This is the fundamental contradiction between the two countries, not to mention that after the completion of the solar orbital elevator, the earth’s sphere will be self-sufficient in energy, and those “remnants of the old era” who have not joined the orbital elevator plan will either beg to get on the train. opportunity, or continue to struggle on an earth full of neutron jammers.
Eurasia has collapsed visibly, and the Union organization will definitely not be able to survive. Even if there is a Union in the future, it will be half a Union with the Kingdom of Scandinavia as its core. In the original AEU, half of the Americas were in the hands of ORB, and Australia was in the hands of PLANT. It would only be a mirror image if the Atlantic government wanted to fully embody it. In the end, as long as the Atlantic surrenders, people will be able to conquer the Atlantic within twenty years. The Revolutionary Federation’s evolution into a unified federal government of the Earth Sphere is just around the corner. Even if it cannot quell the civil strife, it will still be the unification of the Earth Sphere in the true sense of the CE world.
So Mina’s attitude is that if I disclose PLANT, I won’t let us go. My non-disclosure is just to give PLANT more reasons. Taking into account the pros and cons, it is obviously safer to hold Requiem in your hands. At the same time, she and Cagalli, including Lars, knew about the existence of the Messiah Fortress. Although there was no evidence in hand, Mina was already evaluating whether to expose the Messiah. To some extent, , Mina and Durandal both had the same calculation, that is, how to use the awkward information gap of “the other party doesn’t know what they know” to achieve certain strategic goals.
Just when Tianzhizhu was moving, the East Asian Army was in an unprecedented dilemma. Currently, their forwards have established a firm foothold on the shores of Lake Baikal, but no one knows if they will wait for PLANT if they continue to advance. The divine thunder from the sky, if it stops here, it means that only one-fifth of the strategic goal has been achieved, and even the most basic border opening of the Kingdom of Scandinavia cannot be achieved.
However, the only thing that promotes internal unity is external pressure. After publicly characterizing the library as a terrorist, East Asia also declared a state of alert against PLANT. It can be said that there is only one layer of paper away from declaring war, facing thousands of people above their heads. After thousands of adjustments, East Asia finally decided to ask for help from the Kingdom of Scandinavia.
Lars now seems to be surrounded by enemies from all sides, but Iceland has just been captured by PLANT, so it cannot be used as a strategic springboard. And due to the overall strength of the army, PLANT cannot expand beyond Gibraltar and Carpantalia. A large base has been opened up. If it cannot be defended, it will be a dowry for the newly married Queen.
The remaining Central Europe in the south is swinging between two ends, and Eastern Europe has been completely shattered into glass slag due to the large-scale fall of the old Russian territory. Queen Winslet, who occupies the entire Northern Europe, feels somewhat “lonely as a master” at this point in time.
East Asia’s thinking in asking for help is very simple. Since they are all members of the People’s Revolutionary League, it is no longer a matter of principle that who wins what territory. If each company still has its own small calculations, it is okay not to want this People’s Revolutionary League.
I’m going out for the day today, and I’ll try my best to code out tomorrow’s code tonight, but it’s not always possible.
