Chapter 262 The light that still fades (greatly updated for Rafaello
!)
"What did you say?" Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect that Yang Hui would use Lux as leverage to force ZAFT to cease the war. This was a very despicable way of using civilians.
"Do it!"
At this time, Yang Hui's tone was unquestionable, and he showed the aura of a superior to the fullest. People who didn't know better thought that Yang Hui was the captain of the Archangel.
When everyone was stunned for a moment, Yang Hui seized the control of the communication control and contacted the [Tail of the Serpent] and [Celestial Being] who were guarding the Archangel.
"[Serpent's Tail] and [Celestial Being] obey the order, Gai, Setsuna, Lyle, tactical formation A10, attack the enemy fleet; Elijah, Tieria, escort the own ship and the noble ship, enter the battle at full speed
Area! Your ship should follow the Archangel closely at all times, and the emperor of [Celestial Being] will be responsible for subsequent command."
"Understood."XN
Logically speaking, [Giant Serpent's Tail] is just a mercenary and should not obey the command of Yang Hui or the emperor. However, this is not the first time that he has accepted Yang Hui's commission. There have been several difficult missions. [Giant Serpent's Tail] is in
They were frightened when they first received the commission, thinking that these tasks were basically asking them to die. However, relying on the execution plan given by Yang Hui or Huang in advance, they were able to complete the commission without any danger every time, which also made [Giant]
Everyone at "Snake's Tail" recognized Yang Hui and Huang's tactical arrangements and commanding abilities.
As far as the current situation is concerned, only the command of Yang Hui or Huang failed to give them any hope of victory. Otherwise, it is very likely that Gai would give up the commission and take the lead in evacuating with his companions.
"Yang Hui! You..."
"There's no time for a defense now! Where's Kira? Has Captain Flaca made an attack?"
"Not yet... not yet, the [Mobius Zero] Flaka machine has entered the sortie sequence, Strike Gundam... Kira hasn't boarded the plane yet!"
"It's really troublesome." Yang Hui immediately connected to the communication of [Mobius Zero] and conveyed the order to Mu, "Captain Flaca."
"Yang Hui? Why is it you?"
"We'll talk about it later. After the attack, the Zero followed the Archangel and joined the battle together with the Archangel."
"What did you say?"
"Do as I say! If you still want to live!"
Mu originally wanted to ask what was going on, but the communication was cut off.
"What is this all about?" Mu was confused and immediately reconnected with the bridge and asked about the situation, "Hey! What's going on? Why is Yang Hui in command?"
"First...just follow his instructions." Malu replied hesitantly.
"what does it mean?"
"The command of the MS unit and MA unit is temporarily handed over to Yang Hui. If there is any problem, I will be responsible."
To be honest, Ma Liu didn't have much thinking ability at this time. The momentum that Yang Hui just showed gave her a blow. According to the best plan, the Archangel should immediately turn around and leave the battle, regardless of the safety of the advance fleet.
But Malu couldn't let his friendly forces be destroyed in front of his eyes, so he made the wrong decision to rescue the advance fleet.
Although she had made a decision, Ma Liu didn't know what to do specifically and how they should survive. When her thoughts were confused, Yang Hui stood up and gave her the most correct solution that she was unwilling to accept.
Originally, Ma Liu was unwilling to use despicable means to force ZAFT to cease the war, but... Yang Hui did not give her a chance to refute. At this time, Yang Hui made people follow him unconsciously and obey his orders.
Mu Ye knew that the question of command authority could not be answered for the time being, and he was distressed. However, the captain had already spoken and he could only follow Yang Hui's instructions.
After Yang Hui ended the communication with Mu, he left the bridge and went to look for Lacus. When he came to Lacus's door, he found that Kira was also here and was not ready to attack.
"Kira! What are you doing? Go and attack!"
"Yang Hui..."
"Go quickly!"
"okay."
Kira was also shocked by Yang Hui's momentum at this time, and agreed without thinking carefully, but as soon as he took two steps out, he was stopped again.
"Kira!"
"Flea?"
"What's going on with the combat configuration? Where's the advance fleet?" Fleur asked anxiously.
"I don't know, I haven't heard anything..."
"Is everything going to be okay? Dad's ship won't be destroyed, right?"
"If you continue to hold Kira, not only will your father's ship be sunk, but we will also be sunk!" Yang Hui scolded, interrupting Fleur's entanglement.
"how come……"
"Kira, go quickly!"
"Oh well."
Kira left, and the panicked Fleur approached Yang Hui again.
"You lied to me, right? You must have lied to me! How could dad's ship be sunk? Dad..."
"Please wake up!" The harsher scolding made Fleur take two steps back, "This is in the middle of a battle, not the time for you to act like a young lady! Go back to your room and stay there, don't disturb me anymore.
Others are fighting!"
"But!" In panic, Fleur saw Lux next to Yang Hui, and her face immediately became ferocious, "Then kill her! Isn't she from ZAFT? Isn't she an adjuster? Let them retreat! Otherwise,
Kill her!"
Fleur wanted to grab Lux and pull her to the bridge, but Lux was blocked by Yang Hui. Fleur couldn't succeed and could only fight with Yang Hui.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! As long as I use her as a threat, I can definitely..."
"Pa~!"
Facing Fleur who had lost her mind, Yang Hui slapped her across the face without mercy.
This slap blinded Fulei, who covered her red and swollen face and looked at Yang Hui in disbelief.
"You hit me? My father has never hit me..."
"If you keep messing around, I will beat you again, will you try?"
Fleur did still want to fool around, and even wanted to go crazy, but she was frightened by Yang Hui's cold eyes and temperament like frozen air, and she even suppressed her crying.
"Go back to your room and stay there."
After saying that, Yang Hui led Lux towards the bridge, ignoring Fleur who seemed to have lost her soul.
"Lux, I have to leave it to you this time." On the way to the bridge, Yang Hui said apologetically to Lax.
"It doesn't matter. If it can stop the fighting and save more people, I am willing to do my part." Lux shook her head and comforted Yang Hui with a smile.
"...If I can, I really don't want to do it."
"It's okay. I know that if I don't agree, you won't force me."
"..."
"And you will also join the fight. I don't want to see you fight."
"...No one likes fighting, Lux, but many times, only fighting can protect what you want to protect."
"Does that include me?" Lux asked Yang Hui with a smile.
"...Well, including you, because you are my friend."
"Just friends?"
"Otherwise?" Yang Hui glanced at Lacus unhappily. He would not have one of the three major misunderstandings. He knew that Lacus was trying to appease his increasingly violent mood, but...can you not be a monster at this time?
Soon, Yang Hui took Lux back to the bridge. At this time, he could already watch the battle through the glass of the bridge.
"How's the situation?" Yang Hui asked.
"...The Raul was sunk, the Bernard was damaged, the Montgomery was in danger, and there were not many MA troops left..."
Yang Hui nodded upon hearing this and took over the communication control work again.
"Gai, Setsuna, Lyle, report the situation!"
"There are still 400 Loraciyas to the nearest. The ZAFT army has noticed us. Duel, Storm and Thunder are approaching the enemy, and there are 6 [Zeon]." Setsuna reported in a calm voice.
"Change the raid into a guerrilla attack, kill local MS as much as possible, and attract their attention."
"Understood." X3
"The location of the Montgomery!"
"Green Zone 33, Mk22 Bravo!"
"Elej, Tieria, support the Montgomery immediately!"
"Understood." X2
"Captain Flaca continues to guard the Archangel. He does not seek to annihilate the enemy, but only seeks to force him to retreat!"
"learn."
After issuing new orders to the MS and MA troops, Yang Hui checked the current distance between the Archangel and the ZAFT fleet.
"There are still 30 seconds..." Yang Hui gritted his teeth. Under the strong interference environment, it would still take 30 seconds for the Archangel to cover ZAFT's fleet within the communication range.
Whether the Montgomery is in danger can be saved depends on these 30 seconds.
But... the ZAFT army didn't give them 30 seconds at all. In an instant, the three planes were dueled. Storm, Thunder and several surrounding [Zeon] were tightly entangled, unable to stop the ZAFT fleet from advancing, and the Montgomery entered the threat.
The second the Salius's main gun came within range, the Vesalius opened fire.
The thick beam traveled through time and space, cut through the darkness, and penetrated the Montgomery with bright colors.
"damn it!"
Yang Hui punched the operating table with his fist. Unexpectedly, he had made such preparations, but was still a step too late. The advance fleet was almost completely destroyed, and there were not many MA troops left. All three frigates sank.
"what is that……"
At this moment, the bridge door was opened again, and a low, hoarse, desperate voice interrupted everyone's shock.
"Frey! Why are you here?" Sai quickly left his seat and was about to take Fleur away from the bridge, because the one that exploded just now was the Montgomery on which Fleur's father was aboard.
"That's not... dad's boat, right? Now, Sai, tell me, that's not dad's boat, right?" Fleur looked at Sai pleadingly with a stiff expression.
Sai tilted his head with a painful expression, not knowing how to answer. He could indeed deceive Fleur, but... this matter could not be hidden. Fleur would soon learn the truth, so there was no point in hiding it.
"Ah...ah...ah~!!! No~!! Ah~!!!"
"Sai, take her away!" Yang Hui shouted sharply.
"Yeah." Sai nodded and immediately took Fleur, who was almost collapsed, away from the bridge.
At this time, a dozen seconds that seemed like centuries finally passed, and the ZAFT fleet entered the communication range.
Yang Hui did not hesitate and connected to ZAFT's communication channel.
"Inform the ZAFT Army that this is the Archangel, which belongs to the Earth United Army. This ship is protecting Lux Klein, the daughter of Sigurd Lux, the speaker of the PLANT Supreme Council!"
