"What's going on?" Malu and Lux frowned when they saw the attacks of the Earth Army's 3rd and 4th mobile fleets weakened and even began to retreat in an orderly manner.
"Inform the MS troops not to pursue, wait and see what happens!" Malu and Lux immediately ordered. The retreat of the Earth Army fleet was very abnormal. Although they were suppressed, they were not at a disadvantage. As long as they were ruthless, they could break through their blockade.
It's also possible.
Moreover, after Artemis was destroyed, the Earth’s military fleet should have rushed to destroy Genesis. Why did it retreat back instead?
At this moment, the communicator that Malu had been keeping on her body rang.
"This is!"
This communicator was given to her by Wang Liumei as a secret channel to contact Duane Halbaton. She also planned to get in touch with Duane Halbaton after repelling the 3rd and 4th mobile fleets.
Yes, I didn’t expect that the other party came to the door first.
All the messages sent by this communicator have been triple-encrypted. A special decryption code is required to view the content of the message. Wang Liumei handed it to Ma Liu together. After less than a minute of decryption, Ma Liu saw the content of the message.
content.
"This is!"
"Captain Lamias, what news is coming from the other party?" Lux asked. Bucky Lulu and others were also looking forward to it. They all knew that this communicator was used exclusively to communicate with Duane Halbaton.
"General Halbarton is now acting as the commander-in-chief of the lunar crater base. It was he who ordered the 3rd and 4th fleets to retreat."
"What?"
"So fast?"
Everyone was surprised, how long did it take for Duane Halboton to regain power and control the lunar crater base? Is this impossible?
"Could it be a trap?" Bucky Lulu asked suspiciously. She suspected that the sender of the message was not Duane Halbaton. Duane Halboton had been exposed and the communicator had fallen into the hands of others.
"It's possible, but not absolute." Malu and Lux nodded in agreement, but did not reject it. This was Duane Halbarton himself. "There is a follow-up to the news. The content said that General Halbarton had guessed that Yang Hui's single ship was deep into the sea.
He will fully cooperate with Yang Hui's plan behind enemy lines."
"What!? This..."
"Cooperate? Did you say how to cooperate?" Lux asked.
"Yes, he will lead a large force to attack Boyaz Fortress, put up a last-ditch battle formation to attract ZAFT's attention, and prevent more ZAFT troops from interfering with Yang Hui and the others."
"What about the nuclear bomb? Did he have any attitude?" Lux asked. If this is really the message sent by Duane Halboton himself, and what he said is true, then it is undoubtedly the best to cooperate with him.
Choice, but...
Two questions, how to determine that the sender is Duane Halboton? What is his attitude towards nuclear bombs?
Especially the latter question, it is okay to attack Boyaz Fortress, but if nuclear bombs are to be used, then there is no basis for cooperation between them. Whether it is nuclear bombs or Genesis, they are weapons that should not be used. Nuclear weapons cannot be used.
Use becomes the norm.
"Yes, he said he has ordered a ban on the use of nuclear bombs."
"...The credibility is not high." Bucky Lulu shook her head. It was not that she was biased against Duane Halboton. The war has reached this point, and the Earth United and Earth Army are already standing on the edge of the cliff.
, if you are not careful, you will fall into the endless abyss.
Nuclear bombs are the sharpest weapons in their hands. Whether they are facing their own crisis or winning this war, using nuclear bombs is the best choice. Even if Duane Halbaton is not a member of [Blue Cosmos], he will not
The choice to disable nuclear bombs to turn the tide of the war is made, which is a normal consideration from a commander's position.
"That's right, and even if all this is true, how many people will obey the order issued by Lord Halbarton to ban nuclear bombs? The Earth's military fleet is not monolithic." Lux reminded, letting Malu and Bucky
Lulu was stunned.
Yes, Duane Halbaton's prestige in the Earth Army is not low, but he is only among the lower-level soldiers. The middle-level and senior officers do not like him very much, otherwise he would not be in a state of isolation and semi-house arrest.
It is true that Duane Halpatton is the acting commander-in-chief now, but he has just taken office, and most of the officers below him do not like him. How many people will carry out his orders? How many people will obey his orders? How many people will be superficial?
promised, and then stabbed him in the back at the critical moment?
"Captain Lamias, I suggest that we retreat temporarily and let the Earth Army fleet pass by. We will follow closely behind. Once we find that the Earth Army uses nuclear bombs again, we will stop it," Lux suggested.
This is the most pertinent choice. If they are the only ones with troops, they can just drag it out like this. The longer it is delayed, the better the appointment will be. But what they lack most now is time. They must stabilize the Earth Army's fleet as soon as possible, and then find ways to support it.
The White Tiger is the only one, so just retreat temporarily and observe the movements of the Earth's military fleet.
The purpose of the Archangel and the Eternal is to prevent the Earth's fleet from using nuclear bombs again. Now that this purpose has been initially accomplished, there is no need to fight with the Earth's fleet.
As long as the Earth Army fleet does not use nuclear bombs, they will not care about the war between the Earth Army and ZAFT, because the most important goals now are nuclear bombs and Genesis. As long as the use of nuclear weapons is prevented, more than half of this war will be prevented.
Of course, these are all best-case scenarios. In order to prevent the worst-case scenario from happening, they cannot just leave to chase the White Tiger. They have to become supervisors. If the Earth Army uses nuclear bombs again, they have to step in to stop it.
"Okay, it's decided."
Malu and Baji Lulu nodded in agreement with Lux's suggestion. After the Archangel and Eternal recovered all the MS, they turned around and left the battle area, disappearing again.
…
On the other side, the White Tiger's journey was not peaceful. It bypassed the defense line of Boyaz Fortress at the fastest speed and in the smallest arc, but just when they were about to pass the defense line and penetrate deep into the rear, they were discovered.
"Damn it! Why were you discovered here!?" Cherubian raised his gun and shot down several [Jean] and [Gates], then turned around and shot down all the missiles flying towards the White Tiger.
"Boaz's defenders expanded the defense line and reconnaissance range... Our plan was exposed!" Tielia's expression was dull, and De Angel fired two cannons, penetrating two Lorathia-class battleships.
"They can't be spies." Setsuna calmly replied. The crew of the White Tiger are all carefully selected people who are absolutely loyal to Orb. It is even more unlikely that they are people from the Eternal and Archangel who have fought side by side for several times.
Now, we have established bonds and trust with each other.
"Old Sara saw through it." Yang Hui said to everyone while controlling the Dawn Gundam to clean up the enemy aircraft directly in front, "The movements of the Eternal and Archangel were noticed by the other party. Old Sara guessed it without seeing us.
our plan."
"What to do now? There are more and more enemies!" Luo shouted. It was also the first time for him to participate in a battle of this scale. He was very nervous. At first, they only found one Nazca-class ship and two Loraciyas.
class small fleet.
The White Tiger knew that it had been discovered, so it naturally no longer needed to hide its whereabouts. It opened fire and quickly destroyed the reconnaissance fleet that discovered them, and headed towards Genesis at full speed.
But before they had advanced far, they encountered ZAFT's fleet again, and they were constantly coming towards them from all directions. Even if they could break through once, they would be surrounded again.
"Emperor! Recalculate the route, use all the energy on the engine, and we will rush over!" Yang Hui immediately made a decision. Their whereabouts have been completely exposed, so they should stop hiding and directly break through ZAFT's attack with the strongest attitude.
Frontal blockade, destroy Genesis with all your strength.
"...Understood!" Huang knew that Yang Hui was planning to make a desperate move.
"The entire aircraft is in contraction formation. Luo, Gai, your aircraft cannot keep up with the speed of the White Tiger. Go and fix the left and right modules and bind them to the White Tiger!"
"Understood!" X6
The Archangels, the Gundam Heretic Red Frame, and the Gundam Heretic Blue Frame who originally wandered outside the circle have returned. The Archangels, Cherubim, and De Angels are guarding the White Tiger. The Gundam Heretic Red Frame and the Gundam Heretic Blue Frame have arrived at the designated location.
Position, fix the body on the White Tiger.
Dawn Gundam's eyes lit up, his golden wings fully opened, and golden light spots violently spurted out, spraying to both sides and directly in front.
The ZAFT army knew how to respond, and frantically poured firepower into the starlight wave, but it could only delay, not stop, let alone repel it.
The golden light point slowly approached, and ZAFT's mobile suits and battleships retreated one after another. While retreating, they tilted their firepower to prevent the bits from approaching. The enemy aircraft that failed to retreat in time were instantly covered with bits, and turned into cosmic objects in the violent explosion.
dust.
"Now!" Although the number of kills was not many, Yang Hui's goal had been achieved, and the path forward had been opened.
"White Tiger, engine ignition! Full speed ahead!"
The main engine burst into dazzling fire, more violently than before. The huge thrust made everyone on the White Tiger suffer the pain of inertia. The White Tiger's speed became faster and faster, and in the blink of an eye it rushed into the path opened by the Dawn Gundam.
Then he broke out of the ZAFT army's siege.
The Energizer, Cherubian, and De Angel also ran their engines at full speed, following the White Tiger's pace while clearing out enemy aircraft and ships that were trying to approach.
The Dawn Gundam maintains the full output of the [X Generator], and as the tip of the arrow, it is fixed at the front, forcing back or defeating all enemy forces that want to block the White Tiger's path, scattering countless starlights along the way, and
Dense debris was left behind.
"I can see it!"
After about half an hour of sprinting, everyone was finally able to see the outline of Genesis with the naked eye, but they had to face more enemies at this time.
"Angels of energy, angels of wisdom, and angels of virtue, intersperse and hunt! Shatter the enemy's formation into pieces!"
"Understood!" X3
"The red machine and the blue machine leave the White Tiger. I will open the way for you. The White Tiger breaks into Genesis."
"Understood!" X2
The Archangels, Cherubim and De Angels no longer had the burden of protecting the White Tiger, and instantly transformed into caged tigers, splitting in three directions, like three sharp knives inserted into the ZAFT army's formation, stabbing, slashing horizontally, slashing vertically, three or two.
In one fell swoop, the ZAFT army's formation was cut into pieces. Countless explosions bloomed and then disappeared in a flash.
