Chapter 520 The order is coming

Two weeks later, in the combat conference room of the 12th Independent Technical Force, not all members were present, but the leaders and test pilots of each group were present.

After Yang Hui submitted the drawings of the M1 Heretic mass production model to the Military Commission for review and approval, the [V Plan] research team was split into several groups, respectively corresponding to the development of the space, sky, forest, desert and other environments. Arm the pack, and Tim Ray takes charge.

"Everyone, a week ago, the mass accelerator on the moon launched countless small rock blocks to bombard important military locations on the earth. Although the Luna 2 fleet successfully stopped it, it also caused huge casualties and damage to the military bases on the ground. , and also bought valuable time for the airborne troops. The first batch of Zeon space troops have successfully landed in Central Asia and occupied Baikonur and a large area around it. You should know what this means. ”

Everyone looked solemn. Baikonur is a very important military location. It goes up from the Caspian Sea into Europe and approaches Odessa, the center of mineral resources. From the Caspian Sea down to the Middle East, where oil resources are concentrated.

Once these two places are occupied by the Zeon Army, the two major shortcomings of the Zeon Army can be filled in a short period of time.

"So, our order has come. General Ray Bill ordered us to go to Earth and support the Middle East front."

"Question!" After Yang Hui finished speaking and was quiet for two or three seconds, and after confirming that there was nothing more to say, Fort Romfilo raised the question, and he knew that it was now time to enter the question period.

"explain."

"Why the Middle East and not Odessa?" Ford Romfilo asked the question of many people present. Everyone could see that Odessa is much more important than the Middle East, and oil resources are still the most important. strategy, vehicles such as cars, fighter planes, ships, and submarines still use fossil fuels.

But the underground of Odessa is rich in mineral resources, and these mineral resources include rare metals necessary for manufacturing mobile suits. For the Zeon army, which is short of materials, it is the basis and core for expanding its armaments. Once If Odessa is occupied, the Zeon army's mobile suit numbers may double, and the threat will become even greater.

Therefore, they all felt that they should be sent to support the defense line of Odessa, not the Middle East.

"First, the Middle East is as important as Odessa. Without the Middle East, East Asia and Africa will be directly exposed to Zeon's attack range. General Ray Bill believes that even if Zeon has Odessa, it will not be able to expand the MS in a short time. The size of the army, after all, no matter how powerful the MS is, it still needs people to pilot it. Large-scale manufacturing also takes time, and the oil resources in the Middle East can be immediately converted into combat power and money.

Second, the Federation has begun to establish the M1 supernatural force (the emasculated version of the M1 Heretic). The main strategic purpose now is to hold back the Zeon army and consume them.

Three..."

After saying this, Yang Hui paused for a moment, with a joking but cold smile on his face: "The military leaders think that we are not large in number, so they should not go to Odessa to hold back the elite troops."

"boom!"

"Those damn bastards!"

"Is this looking down on us!?"

"Hmph! I must kill these bugs if I get the chance!"

The seven members of the MS team all had ugly faces. The young people all thought that they had been underestimated and were just angry and unwilling. The older people knew that there must be a political struggle involved. The enemies had already reached their doorsteps, and they were still doing it. The internal fighting made them angry and more disappointed with the Federation.

"Okay!" A sharp shout interrupted everyone's indignation, "We have no record, and it is inevitable to be underestimated. Therefore, I have two requirements for this battle. First, everyone should give me their eyes. Polish your highlights and don’t die on the battlefield!”

"Of course!"

"Training is not for nothing!"

"Major, I don't think anyone intends to be a martyr. Let's just talk about the second point!"

"Okay, the second point is..." At this time, Yang Hui paused again, with a bloodthirsty expression and a ferocious smile, "...kill Zeon's offal with pleasure."

"Understood!" XN

Tim Ray and other members of the research team praised Yang Hui's methods in their hearts. Whether it was the look down from above or the stimulation of orders, it greatly stimulated the pilots' competitive spirit and morale. When they went to the battlefield, this unit would explode. Unparalleled fighting power.

"Director Lei."

"Major."

"What's the current status of the armed backpack?"

"Equipment for space, ground warfare, desert warfare and jungle warfare has been manufactured. Except for the armed backpack for space, the other equipment has not yet been tested on actual machines. The equipment for underwater warfare and space stations is still at 70% progress."

"Well... the entire aircraft is equipped with a space backpack, and a set of equipment for ground warfare, desert warfare and jungle warfare is prepared to accompany it."

"It's too dangerous, Major. There are no experimental equipment on the battlefield..." Tim Ray knew that Yang Hui planned to experiment with these new equipment on the battlefield.

"No problem. I'm always paying attention to the research and development process. There won't be any problems. At most, the minor debugging can be solved by the accompanying maintenance engineer."

"But……"

"Execute the order, Director Lei."

"……learn."

"Disband, prepare individually, and set off on time at 0600 Earth time tomorrow."

"Yes!"XN

Everyone dispersed, the pilots were excited and might not be able to sleep tonight, while the technical team leaders were worried. They were confident in the equipment they had developed, but they had to use it in combat before it had been tested. Let them worry that if they cause casualties to their comrades because of defects in the equipment they made, they will never forgive themselves for the rest of their lives.

"Major, I think..." Tim Ray wanted to give some advice, but Yang Hui raised his hand to interrupt him and said something that moved him deeply.

"I trust you, Director Lei."

"...This is not a question of trust or distrust." Although he was moved to tears, Tim Ray still held back his tears, "We are confident in these equipment, but the lives of the pilots should not be used to verify it. "

"Don't get excited, Tim."

"How could I not be excited!? This is a matter of life and death!"

"Okay, calm down, I promise you, after arriving on Earth, I will test the performance in the rear first, and then go to the battlefield if I think it is fine. Is this okay?" Yang Hui knew that if he did not compromise, Tim Ray would not He will let himself go. Sometimes Tim Ray is very talkative, even cowardly, but when it comes to things he cares about, he is very stubborn.

"...I'll go with you." Tim Ray decided to come.

"No, although there are combat missions, the development tasks cannot be stopped. In particular, the water-specific and air-specific backpacks must be completed as soon as possible." Yang Hui said seriously, "Zion has already begun to use water-specific mobile suits, and has begun to use mobile suits specifically for the navy and the navy. The coastal cities have caused huge losses, and the Federation must have underwater MS units as soon as possible; the air force must seize the opportunity. Currently, Zeon does not have air MS available in the atmosphere. Once we succeed first, we can The control of the air is firmly in our own hands."

"...But I'm not worried..."

"Don't worry, Tim, you should know what I'm capable of."

"..." Tim Ray was silent. Although Yang Hui never said it clearly, from the contact during this period, Tim Ray also guessed that Yang Hui was the new technology scientist who developed the M1 Heretic and [Kilin Class].

"Be safe." Thousands of words were stuck in my throat, but they finally merged into the simplest and most sincere blessing.

"Don't worry, everyone has worked hard during this period. Let me tell everyone that after the tasks at hand are completed, I will give you two weeks of vacation. You can go home and spend time with your family."

"……learn."

"Go ahead."

…

Since the [Kirin-class] has not yet been built, the Twelfth Independent Technical Force does not have its own warships, so Tiam deployed four Columbus-class transport ships from the Second Fleet to transport eight mobile suits, and then two Mazers The Lun-class heavy cruiser and six Samiras-class light cruisers served as escorts, escorting them to Earth orbit, then descending from space and arriving directly at the battlefield in the Middle East.

However, after leaving Luna 2's defense range, Zeon's figure was discovered.

"Lieutenant Colonel Warken, the concentration of Minovsky particles has increased, the enemy ship has been detected by radar, database comparison... a Musai class ship! The distance is 1,000 kilometers!"

"Well...this technical force has something. The new radar is working." Warcan is not the commander of Luna 2 yet. Before the Federation Space Force recovers its size and can start a head-on battle with the Zeon fleet, He was just a captain under Tiam, and he was in charge of commanding the convoy this time.

At the beginning, Wakan, like most federal officers, did not like the 12th Independent Technical Force. On the one hand, it was the reputation of the commander Yang Hui, and on the other hand, the autonomy of this unit was too high, which made people jealous.

But after the 12th Independent Technical Force completed the Heretic Gundam (an unscaled version, the entire body was made of Gundamium alloy α) and at the same time remodeled the battleships in the fleet, things began to change.

"Only one battleship...reconnaissance force? Or a special force that performs tasks independently..."

"Lieutenant Colonel, what should we do?"

"Has the other party discovered us?"

"Predicting the route of the opponent's warship should not be possible yet."

"Turn the main gun, lock on the enemy Musai class, accelerate forward, don't alert the enemy."

It stands to reason that the escort fleet has eight battleships, and a mere Musai class is not enough to fill their teeth. Even if Zeon has MS troops, they will not be able to get a favor in front of the updated fleet, and they also have MS, its combat effectiveness has not been verified yet.

However, the order obtained by Waken was to safely escort the members of the 12th Independent Technical Force to the designated coordinates and then conduct airborne operations. In order not to affect the mission, Waken decided to be on the safe side and not open fire yet.

"I hope everything is safe..."
