Chapter 387 Madoc’s Request

Dawn Gundam, Rebirth Gundam and Covenant Gundam returned to the Archangel with the broken Strike Gundam. Everyone immediately sent Mu to the medical room. The wounds penetrated by the fragments were deep. Fortunately, Yang Hui took emergency measures for Mu, and again This prevented him from chasing Cruze and avoiding shock due to excessive blood loss.

"What happened inside?" Huang asked Yang Hui.

"Kruze and Yitzhak sneaked into the colonial satellite from the other side."

Having said that, looking at the status of each aircraft, they all guessed what happened. There was some kind of unexplainable grudge between Cruze and Mu. They all knew that the two of them were facing each other. it goes without saying.

The Rebirth Gundam and the Covenant Gundam were unscathed, either killing the duel instantly or not fighting at all.

"What now?" Huang asked.

"Kruze was cut by me, and Yitzhak retreated with him."

Hearing this, everyone nodded. Although they were surprised that Cruze and Yitzhak could survive in Yang Hui's hands, considering that their current situation was not good and they wanted to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible, they did not ask any more questions.

Just a flash of light flashed in the eyes of Huang and Wang Lumei. Kruse was the person they had been trying to contact, but they had never had the chance. It seemed that Yang Hui had talked with Kruse this time. As for the specific results, they could only wait. Speaking privately, after all, Cruze has always been the number one enemy of the Archangel. The early pursuits were all led by Cruze. At the same time, the grudge between Mu and Cruze was also difficult to resolve, so other people could not be allowed to People knew they were interested in recruiting Kruse.

"Let's go, it's no longer safe here." Huang said.

"Well, have you contacted the people over there?" Yang Hui asked.

"We've been contacted, just wait until we get there."

"...Where are the ZAFT fleet and the Main Angel?"

"The Lord Angel retreated towards the moon, and the ZAFT fleet has been staying on the periphery of the L4 colonial satellite group, unable to confirm the threat."

"The Archangel retreated? Did that idiot allow it?"

"It should have been a direct order from someone above. Of course, it's also possible that they were hiding to prepare for a surprise attack on us."

"It seems that the Atlantic Federation is going to make a big move. Forget it, never mind, let's leave directly. I will set sail with Setsuna and the others to escort the fleet, and we can't let Mendel be exposed." Yang Hui decided.

"Understood." Huang, Lux and Malu nodded in agreement. The video communication ended and the three ships began to execute the sailing procedures.

Yang Hui also sat on the Dawn Gundam again, guarding the left and right sides of the three battleships with Energizer, Cherubian and De Angel. They were also accompanied by Freedom Gundam and Justice Gundam. Others let them rest.

The ZAFT fleet, which was far outside the L4 colonial satellite group, could only watch the Archangel, White Tiger and Eternity leave leisurely. Their chests were filled with flames of unwillingness and indignation, but there was nothing they could do.

"Captain, what should we do now?" Captain Addis asked Cruze.

"...Raboni and Team Zell suffered the least damage. Follow them and see where they go."

"But..." Captain Addis wanted to object. Previously, the entire fleet could not threaten the outflanked three-ship alliance. When the MS troops suffered heavy losses, only half of the fleet was sent to follow them to make sure they were not going to die. ?

"I know it's dangerous, Addis, but the orders of the Speaker must be carried out. Telegraph them to just follow them from a distance and not to fight with them. If the situation is critical, allow them to retreat. Oh, by the way, except for Vesali The Us, temporarily transfer MS units from other ships into their forces, with [Gates] as the first priority, to ensure their combat effectiveness.”

"understood."

"The other troops withdraw to Boyaz Fortress, and we return to our homeland."

"Go back to your homeland... right?"

"Well, the combat effectiveness of these people has exceeded the assessment of the Intelligence Department and the General Staff. We alone cannot recover or sink the Eternal. I need to report this to the Speaker in person."

"learn."

…

After several days of sailing, the three-ship alliance left the L4 colonial satellite group and came to a hidden meteorite group in the universe. In this meteorite group, there was a very huge meteorite. It was no longer a simple meteorite, but It is a secretly built stronghold of [Terminal]. It not only has a material warehouse, but also a complete production factory and research area.

If Mendel of the L4 colonial satellite group is the base camp of [Terminal], then this is the second stronghold and a backup base when the base camp is in crisis and needs to be abandoned.

The ZAFT fleet following them was noticed by the three-ship alliance from the beginning, so not long after setting sail, they found a meteorite area to ambush and annihilate them, so that the secrets here would not be exposed.

The three ships entered the port and immediately started supply work. They dispersed the MS troops and arranged the order of patrols. The emperor and others gathered in the conference room in the stronghold.

"Liu Mei, have you got the information?" Yang Hui asked first. They are still in the stage of hiding and recuperating. Before it is determined when to officially intervene in the war, information is the most important.

"Not yet." Wang Liumei shook her head, but quietly gave Yang Hui a look and regained her helpless expression, "After several internal purges, we don't have many agents left within the Atlantic Federation. The surviving agents are short-lived. There is no way to enter the core.”

"Really... continue to explore. There is also the war situation on Earth. The universe will not fight for a while." Yang Hui ordered.

"Understood, I will give the order."

"Then what should we do now? Just wait?" Malu asked.

"Yes, we can only wait now, waiting for the conflict point to be detonated." Yang Hui said seriously, and explained to Malu and other people who did not understand, "It is difficult for us to intervene in the battlefield on Earth. There are no large-scale battles in the universe now. Even because both sides are planning something, even small-scale frictions have been restrained a lot. Who should we attack at this time?"

"This..."

"No matter who we attack, we will be judged as hostile forces and attacked with all our strength." Lacus took over Yang Hui's words and explained to everyone, "Even because of our appearance, the Earth Army and ZAFT will reach a silent tacit understanding, temporarily put aside hatred and prioritize eliminating us. After all, no one wants to be disrupted by a third party at the critical period of the war."

"... Can't we stop the war in advance?" Kira asked with a complicated expression.

"I can't do it." Yang Hui shook his head. "The hatred between the two sides has almost reached its peak. Unless both sides are completely defeated, we can't stop it. We don't have the ability to do so."

"Even if we have this ability, it will only delay the outbreak of hatred." Huang continued.

"How could it be..."

Kira and others' expressions became more and more ugly and sad. Everything they did and insisted on was to stop the twisted war, but now... they have clearly made up their minds, but they can only wait for the war to continue and have no choice.

The war has reached this point. Every extra minute and second will cause countless people to die. This is something that no one present wants to see.

"Calm down, Kira." Yang Hui patted Kira's shoulder to comfort him, and then looked at Malu, Aslan and others, "And everyone, what we are going to do is difficult, and it can even be said that it is a life-and-death struggle, so we need a complete plan and enough patience, otherwise, we will all die, and it will be in vain."

"...I know."

After hesitating for a moment, everyone nodded. Of course, they knew what Yang Hui said, but they were just uncomfortable and unwilling, and wanted to complain and vent.

"By the way, Yang Hui, President Madoc contacted me and said that he wanted to talk to you about something." Luo said to Yang Hui.

"Madoc? What does he want to talk about?" Yang Hui frowned slightly and asked Luo.

"I don't know about this, but he sent me a coordinate and said that if you agree, go to this coordinate to meet him."

As he said, Luo put an unfamiliar coordinate on the cosmic map. Seeing this coordinate, everyone frowned, because this coordinate is located in the wreckage area where [Julius 7] is located.

"Wreckage area? What does Madok want to do?" Yang Hui thought.

Doing business? No, it was not the first time Madok had contacted Yang Hui. He knew that Yang Hui would not accept sales pitches and would come to him if he needed to trade.

But apart from business, Yang Hui could not think of what Madok wanted to talk to him about... Could it be about Madona and the giant floating platform? It shouldn't be. Although there were conflicts between the cosmic faction and the earth faction, they were just different in concepts and ideas. It was not to the point of making things difficult for each other or even destroying each other.

"I don't recommend meeting." At this time, Tieria took the initiative to say that in his opinion, this behavior put their plan in danger. "The timing is too coincidental and the location is wrong. It is likely a conspiracy."

"Yes, I don't agree either." Most people, including Malu, Bakilulu, and Lux, nodded in support of Tieria's opposition.

"I received an interesting piece of information. Maybe we can guess what he wants to do." As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Liumei released a piece of information, "The Atlantic Federation is forcing all forces in the world to unite against PLANT. The target of the threat is not only the countries on Earth, but also the waste recycling business union."

"What do you mean!"

"Haha, it seems that this old fox can't stand it anymore and wants to seek protection." At this point, Yang Hui also laughed, and laughed very proudly.

"But this is just one possibility. Another possibility..." Huang's face looked very worried.

"A trap set for me?"

"Yeah."

Yes, this possibility also exists. Maddock couldn't resist the pressure of the Atlantic Federation and joined the camp against PLANT. Then this meeting request is a trap to lure Yang Hui to go there. Ambush troops have been arranged around.

"Luo, what do you think?" Yang Hui did not make a decision immediately, but asked Luo. After all, Luo is a member of the waste recycling business union, and he should know some inside information.

"I don't know. We left after getting [New Holm], and I didn't notice anything unusual, but I think..."

"What do you think?"

"I think we can still go and meet him." Luo said to Yang Hui.

"Reason?"

"Madoc is a bastard, but he is a principled bastard. He is indeed insidious and profit-seeking, but his purpose is to give us, the scrap recyclers, a stable home. This has never changed. Moreover, most scrap recyclers hate the Atlantic Federation and will not succumb to a few threats, so... I think he is more likely to seek asylum from you." Luo said seriously.

"Hmm... I understand." Yang Hui nodded and made a decision in his mind, "Let's go meet him. The White Tiger will accompany him, the Archangel and the Eternal will support him, and the emperor will formulate a battle plan."
