Machine War: Starting from Gundam OO

Chapter 1240 There is more than one unexpected guest!
Everyone's expressions were quite strange. They didn't know Lala Shin who was following behind Char, but they could tell that the relationship between the two was special, even closer than the relationship between Yang Hui and Ryukinosaki, but... there was an indescribable sense of weirdness. The man who once frightened the whole world... would be helpless against a woman?
What surprised everyone was why Yang Hui and Xia Ya were so familiar with each other. On the surface, they looked like they were arguing with each other, as if they would not stop until they killed each other. However, except for a silly girl like Irie Huan who was extremely natural, most people could sense that this was another type of good relationship.

"Director Yang Hui also knows Char Aznable?"

"I don't know, but they look familiar. It's definitely more than just knowing each other."

"Then Director Yang Hui is..."

"Who knows? But... it feels so dreamy."

"That's right, I don't know whether I should be happy or worried..."

"Indeed, that's Char Aznable!"

"Lieutenant General, that Char Aznable has become a Lieutenant General of the Federation Army..."

"But why did Major Lala call him Colonel?"

"Who knows, maybe it's a nickname?"

With Lala Shin's intervention, Char naturally couldn't continue to fight with Yangshi. Yang Hui didn't give him a hard time, but instead told Mitsuha Greywalle, "Captain Mitsuha, Char and Lala's machines are a little special. And my machine will be parked alone in hangar No. 2, and it doesn't need to be serviced by others."

"Hmm? This... I understand." Sanye Greywallai didn't consider anything else, but just speculated that there were some military secrets on the new machine that could not be known to outsiders.

Others might be unhappy, after all, this is a sign of distrust, but Sanye Greywallis had a high level of military literacy and did not care too much. Although Brigadier General Fix gave him a high level of independent authority, he was only a lieutenant colonel in a special agent position after all, and not the master of the Earth Federation.

"Drip drip..."

"Lian, what's wrong?" Sanye Greywallai received a communication from Lian on the bridge.

"Captain, the radar detection system has responded. A huge warship is approaching our ship. The other side has also sent a communication request."

"I'll go to the bridge right away, Director Yang Hui, Vice Admiral Xia..."

"Just call me Char." Char put away the sarcastic expression he had when he was arguing with Yang Hui, and returned to a calm and gentle attitude. "My rank has no meaning on this ship, so just call me by my name."

"...Okay, Char, can you come with me to the bridge?" Mitsuha Greywallis was silent for a moment, then nodded in agreement and asked.

"With pleasure, Lala, I leave this to you."

"Saki, you stay here with Lala, and take her to visit the [Drestriga]."

"Okay, Colonel."

"Yes, Yang Hui."

The scene was handed over to Lara Shin and Ryukinosaki. Yang Hui and Char were very relieved. They followed Mitsuha Greywalla to the bridge and saw that the communication had been connected.

"Ah, Captain, Director Yang Hui, you are here. This is the acting captain of the White Fortress of the Federal Army's Promise Corps, Major Mile Yashio."

"Milai Yashio!"

Hearing the other party's name and looking at the face on the screen, Mitsuye Greywalle and Reynold Harding were stunned again, because this was another well-known figure who should not appear in the federal army.

Mile Yasu, the eldest daughter of the Yasu Group, was unfortunately involved in the war between the Federation Army and the Principality of Zeon during the One Year War in Side 7. She boarded the then most advanced Pegasus-class assault landing ship [White Fortress] and served as the helmsman until the end of the One Year War. She fell in love with and married Brad Noah, the most famous captain of the Federation Army and the head of the Londo Bell team. After marriage, she had a son and a daughter. In order to take care of the children, Mile Yasu chose to retire.

"This... Director Yang Hui, should Char... explain it?" Reynold Harding asked Yang Hui and Char seriously. His guess was confirmed from another aspect. There must have been some major changes in the Federation Army that they didn't know about. Otherwise, why would such a powerful fleet suddenly appear? Why did Char suddenly become a lieutenant general of the Federation Army? Why did he retire... No, it should be the former members of the White Fortress who were forced to retire and rejoin the Federation Army?
That's right, after the end of the One Year War, not only Mile Yasu, but 80% of the crew members of the legendary battleship "White Fortress" retired. The reason for Mile Yasu's retirement was not just to take care of the children, but also because of the operation of the Federation Army.

Yang Hui didn't know how to explain, because he didn't expect that the person who came was Mile. This meant that Rebil and Huang had a new arrangement, an arrangement that he didn't know about, so he looked at Char. Char understood and took out the prepared speech to explain to Mitsuba Greywall and Reynold Harding: "On the Earth or the universe that you can't see, the war situation has become more and more intense. The establishment of the Promise Corps requires not only powerful battleships and MS, but also more outstanding talents to join. In the past, because of the upper echelons of the Federation, many outstanding talents were restricted and buried. In the face of the safety of mankind and the earth, those internal struggles are absolutely not allowed."

"..."

Mitsuye Greywalle and Reynold Harting remained silent. The explanation given by Char was reasonable and impeccable, but precisely because of this, Mitsuye Greywalle and Reynold Harting could not believe it, at least not completely.

They have a certain understanding of the top leaders of the Federation, especially those in the Federal Parliament. If they don't fight among themselves, they can probably kill them all.

"Yes, Captain Mitsuha, Vice Captain Reynold, because the crisis facing the Earth and humanity is closely related to everyone, so I accepted the call of the Federation Army and rejoined the Federation Army." Mile Yasu on the screen immediately added on behalf of Char, "This does not mean that I trust the Federation Army again. I only returned to the Federation Army for my own personal purposes, for the Earth, for humanity, and for my two children."

"...I understand, Major Mile."

"Vice Admiral Char, this ship has received the latest order. After the Federation Headquarters learned that Drestriga had ended the battle in the Gophir Space, they determined that the Gophir Space was temporarily safe. This ship does not need to return immediately and will follow Drestriga. At the same time... Captain Mitsuha." After saying this, Mile Yashio looked at Mitsuha Greywalle and read out the order from the Federation Headquarters. "The Federation Headquarters has issued a new order to Drestriga. It will immediately set off for the colony satellite Londenion, meet up with the Londenbell team, and then go to the GGG orbital base to prepare to enter the atmosphere."

"A direct order from the Federal Army Headquarters!?" Sanye Greywallis and Reynold Harding were stunned. There was nothing wrong with the order itself, the problem lay with the person who issued the order.

[Drestriga] is an independent unit of the Earth Federation Army, directly responsible to Brigadier General Fisk. Logically, Brigadier General Fisk should give them orders, but now... it is the Federation Army Headquarters that gives them orders, which means...

"Something happened to Brigadier General Fix!" X2
Clover Greywall and Reynold Harding thought of this at the same time.

"Excuse me, Major Mile, our ship is directly responsible to Commodore Fix, and all orders are directly issued by Commodore Fix. Why is it that the Federal Army Headquarters is giving us orders this time? What happened to Commodore Fix?" asked Sanye Greywalle, suddenly feeling a surge of distrust towards the Federal Army and the Federal Army Headquarters.

"Due to special reasons, Brigadier General Fix is ​​currently under investigation within the Federation Army and is temporarily unable to issue any instructions to your ship. A specialist will explain the details after your ship arrives at the GGG orbital base." Mile Yashio explained.

"...I understand." At this moment, Sanye Greywallai inexplicably developed a distrust of the federal army, and it was increasing rapidly. But since the other party said that someone would come to explain it soon, he temporarily suppressed this distrust and obeyed the order first.

"Captain Mitsuha, your ship has entered the detection range of your ship's optical camera. Please prepare to receive the dedicated machines of Director Yang Hui... and Miss Rukino, as well as the additional personnel sent by the Federation Army Headquarters to [Drestriga]."

"We are ready and awaiting the arrival of your ship."

The communication ended here. Yang Hui noticed that Sanye Greywallis and Reynold Harding were in deep thoughts. He also sensed the growing distrust in their hearts through mental waves. They looked at each other and nodded.

"Captain, the optical camera's image is out!"

"Hmm? Yeah, put it on the main screen!"

"Yes!"

"This!?" Seeing the battleship on the screen, everyone turned their heads to look at Char with a ridiculous expression on their faces. You tell me this is a transport ship with no combat power! ?
……

"Brother Yang Hui!"

The [White Fortress] and the [Drestriga] successfully reunited, and the two ships connected. A beautiful and lively figure threw herself into Yang Hui's arms, looking up at him with a smile.

"Long time no see, Rita, you look a little embarrassed~!"

"Oh! Brother Yang Hui is so annoying! Why do you still mention this matter!?" Rita Bernal puffed up her face. It was really embarrassing before. The Rita Bernal in this world lost her body and merged with the Unicorn Gundam No. 3 [Phoenix]. Then her consciousness was merged with Rita Bernal, and then... [Phoenix] could not be started at all.

The most worrying thing for Rita Bernal was that the Phoenix was floating in the universe, there was nothing around it, and it couldn't be started by itself, so... there was no other way. Rita Bernal could only ask for help on the Legion channel.

"Hahaha, okay, okay." Yang Hui smiled and pinched Rita Bernal's pretty face. Since she was the sister he adopted, he had to pamper her, right?

"Master Yang Hui." At this time, another group of people came to Yang Hui through the connecting channel. They turned around and looked surprised. "It's you, Nina... Hmm? Who are these three?"
