Machine War: Starting from Gundam OO

Chapter 1231: Everything will be useless without Yang Hui!
Edge Saint Claus's doubts are not difficult to understand. After all, the Earth Federation is large enough and has developed new battleships and MS, which can temporarily drag wars in various places into a stalemate. Then, as time goes by, there will be more and more new battleships and MS, and the Federation Army's strength will become stronger and stronger, which will naturally be able to break the stalemate and reverse the current situation.

The most typical example is the One Year War with the Principality of Zeon. Relying on the advantage of its new humanoid mobile weapons, MS, the Principality of Zeon caught the Federation Army off guard and almost wiped out the powerful fleet that the Earth Federation had developed for many years, leaving the Federation Army with only the [Luna II] in its territory in the universe.

Half of the Earth's territory was occupied by the Zeon army, and for a time everyone thought that Zeon's victory was inevitable.

However, under the command of Rebil, the Earth Federation Army used a large number of fighter planes and tank units to slow down the advance of the Zeon Army, and secretly developed MS belonging to the Federation Army. Then, relying on its huge size and years of accumulation, the army structure was quickly adjusted, the popularization of MS units and the replenishment and transformation of the fleet were carried out rapidly, and the defeat was soon reversed, defeating the Principality of Zeon.

If this is a common sense situation, there is nothing wrong with thinking this way.

But the problem is... the current situation is beyond common sense!
“First, although new battleships and mobile suits have been developed, the Promise Corps has almost exhausted all of the Federation’s resources. It will be difficult to build a new battleship within two years.

Second, the technology contained in the new battleships and MS is also very complex and conflicts with existing technology. The current scale of the entire Prometheus Corps was built by the Federation with all its manpower, material and financial resources in the "Year of Miracles". Otherwise, why do you think the Earth Federation has no achievements except for the "Drestriga"?

Third, due to unknown reasons, DBD phenomena occur frequently around the world. In addition to the known enemies we need to face, there may be unknown ones. No one knows whether there will be a new enemy next. Of course, we also look forward to the emergence of allies.

In summary, it will be impossible for the Federation Army to break the stalemate by relying on new battleships and MS for at least two years."

Of course, Yang Hui did not tell them that the Macross-class battleships of the Promise Corps and the new equipment announced to the public, such as the [Dawn Series] and [Rising Sun Series], were not developed by the Earth Federation at all. Although the technology can be used directly, the production lines, basic technology, materials... nothing can match. How can Macross-class battleships and series of MS be built on a large scale in this world?

Not to mention this world, even the Gundam AGE world that was first linked to Promise Fortress could not build a Macross-class battleship on its own.

"Okay, I understand." Aggie St. Claus had mixed feelings. He was disappointed that he still had to live a dangerous and troublesome combat life, but he was glad that he would not be unemployed in the short term.

"Ask a question." The person who raised his hand to ask the question this time was not someone in the audience, but Sanye Greywallis who was beside Yang Hui.

"explain."

"Now that the Federation Army already has a powerful new fleet, will the mission of [Drestriga] change?"

"Huh?"XN
Sanye Greywallis did not ask this question herself. Although she was confused about it before, she had already got the answer from Yang Hui before the meeting.

Sanye Greywallis asked this question on behalf of the people sitting below. After all, the [Drestriga] is a universal combat mothership secretly developed by the Federation, and it is also an independent force with very high authority. It is positioned as the strongest elite force. It does not have fixed combat missions, and at the same time, their combat targets are everywhere. They unite the most elite forces, travel around the world, constantly seize opportunities, create opportunities, and make breakthroughs to break the decline of the Federation Army.

Now, with the emergence of a new fleet with super combat power, the situation of the Federation Army has been temporarily stabilized. So, are the responsibilities they shoulder no longer necessary?

If this is the case, then everyone's hearts may be unsettled.

There is definitely some concern, but Sanye Greywallai took into account that people would not ask directly but would keep it in their hearts, so she took this opportunity to explain it to everyone in an appropriate way.

"Yes and no." Yang Hui nodded to Sanye Greywallai, then looked at the others and answered, "Because the Federation Army has stabilized the situation and the crisis has been reduced, Drestriga has gained more time and opportunities. It doesn't have to be as urgent as before and can slow down its schedule to a certain extent, but Drestriga's positioning and mission objectives will not change. It is true that the new fleet has powerful strength, but it will either be dragged to the front line of the battle by the enemy or act as a firefighter around the world and find it difficult to escape. So if you want to completely break the deadlock, you still need a breakthrough created by Drestriga."

"..." XN
Everyone was silent, but Yang Hui could sense through mental waves that the originally relaxed, discouraged and disappointed emotions were beginning to rise again.

"Everyone, I know you are doubting and worried, but what I want to say is that the responsibility of [Drestliga] is still heavy, and your mission is still important. Before the war is completely over and the world is completely at peace, you are not allowed to relax, and there is no extra energy to make you frustrated. Captain Mitsuha and I have sought the consent of Commodore Fix. If anyone wants to withdraw, you can find Captain Mitsuha, and she will sign a retirement certificate for you. The time limit is only three days, because after the third day, our ship will arrive in the Gophir Space Region."

"..." XN
"Who else has questions?"

Next, Yang Hui answered some questions, none of which were very important, until the ten minutes were up. Even if someone still raised their hand, Yang Hui would ignore them and adjourn the meeting, asking everyone to return to their respective posts...

"By the way, let me announce that in order to better understand everyone's health conditions, everyone must unconditionally cooperate with Mabe's comprehensive physical examination. Remember what I said, unconditional cooperation."

"Eh!?"
Everyone had gone through physical examinations, but they were scared when they thought about the fact that Mabe had always been interested in many people's bodies, special abilities, and senses, and that she often had a perverted and devilish expression on her face.

"Why? Any objections?"

"Have……"

"If you have any, hold it in! This is not a request, it's an order! You just need to execute it! Do you understand!?" "Uh... I understand... I understand..." XN
"Louder! Didn't you eat?!"

"I understand!"
"Very good, then everyone get ready and wait for Mabe's call." Yang Hui was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. It reminded him of the time when he was in the 12th Independent Technical Unit. That group of cowards, even though they are all great now, they were trained by him. If he didn't train them hard, they would all be useless!
After Yang Hui left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and touched their foreheads, only to find that they were covered in cold sweat.

"It's finally over! I was scared to death just now!"

"Is Director Yang Hui still in this state? It's like..."

"A tough, iron-blooded soldier!"

"Yes, yes! That's it!"

"Even Sigma can't compare to him. It's really scary!"

"Who is Sigma?"

"Oh, our Dean of Studies, he has a stern face all day long, as if everyone owes him a million dollars. Not only that, any small mistake will be stopped and severely lectured for two or three hours. Not only the students, but also the instructors are the same. Everyone is afraid of him. He is called "Ghost-Seeing Fear"."

“…It’s not easy for you either.”

"Who says it's not?"

"Cough cough."

Sanye Greywallis originally planned to listen quietly to everyone's comments on Yang Hui, and to relax at the same time. After all, she was also frightened by Yang Hui's iron-blooded temperament just now.

But...listening to the others talking more and more outrageous and the content becoming more and more distant, I chose to interrupt them by coughing.

"Captain!? Why are you still here!?" Everyone was frightened again. Their attention was all on Yang Hui. For a moment, they ignored the fact that Sanye Greywallis and Reynold Harding had not left. Although Yang Hui had no real official position or power in [Drestriga], and everyone knew that he was a scumbag, but...

Everyone respected Yang Hui very much. Apart from anything else, it was Yang Hui's on-the-spot command that kept the students from the 30th Officer Academy alive safely when the "Drestriga" set sail.

In addition to the strengths that Yang Hui has demonstrated in all aspects, and the fact that we have received a lot of guidance and instruction from chatting with Yang Hui on a daily basis, it is impossible for us to have any opinions about Yang Hui.

At the same time, they also treated Yang Hui as a senior officer.

Although it wasn't a bad thing, if the real boss heard what he said behind Yang Hui's back, he wouldn't be punished, right?
"Okay, everyone return to your respective jobs and wait for Mabey's notification."

"Understood!"XN
They were frightened by Sanye Greywallai and were definitely not in the mood to continue the discussion. They all dispersed in fear, leaving Sanye Greywallai shaking his head and smiling bitterly.

"You're still too lax. You need some good training!" Reynold Harding said seriously. He was originally an instructor at the 30th Non-commissioned Officer Academy. When he saw his student lose his composure like this, he immediately regained his previous state.

"Forget it, Lieutenant Captain Reynold, it would be good if everyone was more energetic." Sanye Greywallai felt that there was no need to teach them a lesson. After all, most of the people on the ship were young people, and young people would naturally be more energetic, and... Sanye Greywallai did not want everyone on the ship to become just an ordinary superior-subordinate relationship.

"……I see."

"Okay, Vice Captain Reynold, you should also return to your post."

"learn."

Clover Greywall and Reynold Harding were the last to leave the briefing room, and they were heading in completely opposite directions, so Clover Greywall did not notice at all that the moment Reynold Harding turned around, his face became extremely serious.

"There must be something wrong with Yang Hui. I need to find an opportunity to report..."
