"The captain has such power on his own ship. If Captain Brad wishes, of course I can keep an eye on the conduct of the ship at all times. During your conversation with Captain Brad, Always be prepared to remind Shangguan about your tone of voice, even though it will be very troublesome..."

"But what do you think, Miss Platinum? You say it's troublesome because you hate this formality, right? Can you analyze whether the rules themselves are correct?"

Amuro asked relentlessly. He seemed to be a little competitive with Shirogane now and wanted to hear about Shirogane's 'self';

'Rules? '

Platinum considered that the current state of the Ogas system is indeed quite special. Although the process in the middle is a complete black box, to use a wishing machine as an analogy, Dr. Parson copied it when he was training the Ogas model. The goal is the desire that He must fulfill;

However, the desire to "maintain the prosperity and unity of the Federation and the long-term stability of human civilization" is too general, and it can't be called a restraint.

Further down in priority are the developer rights of Dr. Parsons and the instructions of Lieutenant General Cunningham, who was granted administrator rights;

As for the rest, including the various levels of orders, tasks, etc. accepted by the agents at Gabro Base, they are all just disguises in order to penetrate deep into human society in accordance with Lieutenant General Cunningham's wishes. They only have the power to the system itself. Limited degree of effectiveness.

What Amuro can't stand now, the oppressive rules and hierarchy within the Federation Army, are nothing to the Ogas system. When human functions are gradually replaced, Naturally, these rules for dealing with interpersonal relationships are no longer necessary.

'But... I said that the call will go through the channel of Gabro Base and will be recorded, but I didn't listen at all. '

"Monitoring multiple targets, analyzing semantics, identifying problems, and identifying irregularities in etiquette through surveillance videos will take up a lot of resources, and have a low correlation with the outcome of the battle. To me, it is It’s trouble, Lieutenant Amuro.”

Although this was not the approval Amuro wanted to hear, the fact that Shirogane's words stopped there still made him feel somewhat disappointed; in a construction like Side7, life in a loosely managed colonial satellite, and his father was a rather respectable senior officer of the Federation Army. Technical staff--

Amuro has indeed never experienced a life where he needs to be cautious in his words and deeds. Even though he was slapped by a federal officer because of his rude words at the commendation ceremony, he still hasn't changed much.

"Amuro—Amuro! Have you seen Kaz and the others?"

At this time, after turning the corner of the corridor, Frau suddenly ran over anxiously.

Chapter 92: All in all (1)

Turning the clock back a few days ago, on the Zeon Army's intelligence map, the tracking signal of the White Base had just disappeared over a certain rainforest in the Gabro region of South America.

"...This will be the last offensive operation of strategic significance for our army on the earth at this stage. I hope that you all can go all out to fully implement the will of Commander-in-Chief Kilian."

Looking at the podium in front of him, Major General Albrecht, the senior officer of the SS who was parodying Kilian's speech style and the chief of staff of Zeon's North American theater, sighed tiredly.

Although it may not contain any causal relationship, since that damn 'White Pegasus' re-entered the atmosphere in the North American theater, then rampaged all the way to escape, and incidentally killed the commander-in-chief of the Zeon Earth Attack Force. After Karma, it seemed that the war situation took a turn for the worse against Zeon.

Needless to say, the all-out counterattack launched by the Federation on the Eurasian continent has forced the Zeon Army everywhere to shrink their front lines and improve their tactical positions. However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Zeon Army's ground forces cannot be any larger. grew, and the war engine of the Federation was only just getting started;

In addition, relying on the military production capacity from the Gabro Federation headquarters, the Federation Army also launched several counterattacks on the east and west coasts of South America, forcing the Zeon South American Theater, which had almost the lowest supply priority in the world, to retreat one after another;

As the Zeon Army's first complete control area on Earth, the North American theater, which is supposed to be the most self-sufficient, continues to confront the federal forces on the front line in Panama, but on the other side it has been unable to land from Seattle. Federal Alaskan Front troops rushed to sea.

Obviously, as the Federation Army gradually adapted to the battlefield environment of the new era in the flames of war, slowly becoming comparable in tactics and equipment, and even overtaking the Zeon Army, Zeon could no longer hold on to the old impressions it had at the beginning of the war. Measure the enemy's combat power.

Major General Albrecht thought silently in his heart, 'It's just...'

"Are you serious? You only rely on airborne operations and small-scale amphibious landing forces for infiltration, without any cooperation with large-scale ground forces, and you are going to launch an offensive against the heavily guarded headquarters of the federal army?!"

After listening to the instructions from the Zeon mainland dictated by the senior officers of the Kilian Guards, the generals of the Earth Attack Force who attended the meeting immediately became unable to sit still.

After the senior official wearing the exclusive uniform of the Guards heard this aggressive rhetorical question, he was not in a hurry to reply. Instead, he held his head high, as if he was looking at people with the tip of his chin, looked around the conference room for a week, and then said in a high tone:

"It's unbelievable. Are these the words of the Zeon soldiers in the North American theater who were the first to set foot on the earth? Did our army count on someone to cooperate with our army on the ground when we carried out the operation to lower ourselves to the earth? Airborne combat?"

"No...how can it be compared like this? We have a lot of intelligence that shows that the Federation Army has now begun to equip mobile suits in batches. In addition, the air force and long-range fire strike capabilities have been enhanced, and it is rumored that the production base of the Federation Unmanned Corps is in Gabu. Luo…”

"why not?"

The officer of the Kilian Guards roared and interrupted the general's explanation, and then repeated:

"——Why not! Do you want me to look back at how many people had concerns and how many people were afraid of difficulties when Lord Kilian advocated the declaration of war against the Federation, launched the Britain Plan, and implemented the operation to lower the Earth? But what was the result— —”

"——The result is that our army, under the leadership of Lord Kilian, has achieved seemingly impossible victories one after another! Your North American theater should be ashamed. Even Lord Kalma died heroically in the battle, but now There are so many cowards sitting here alive and shamelessly making defeatist remarks..."

Hearing this, Major General Albrecht had to stand up and express his position:

"Even if you are a representative from the mainland, I cannot sit back and watch you insult the honor of our Zeon Earth Attack officers and soldiers in the North American theater. We just hope to improve the details of the combat plan and ensure that Commander Kilian's genius strategic vision can be realized. accomplish."

In fact, due to his previous bad relationship with Kalma Zabi, Chief of Staff Major General Albrecht, who felt constrained in all aspects, sometimes deliberately angered Kalma and asked him to remove him from other posts. idea;

It was precisely this state of half-heartedness in his own work that prevented him from deliberately maintaining a close relationship with the powerful officers of the front-line divisions in the North American theater;

After Kalma's sudden death in battle, it was naturally difficult for Albrecht to have the prestige to continue to maintain the unity of the Zeon Army units in the North American theater, whether it was facing the federal army or the investigation team from the mainland.

"Then what does your Excellency, Chief of Staff, have to say?"

"Even now, our army has almost no knowledge of the federal army's Gabro base's troop deployment, air defense firepower distribution, and reconnaissance and detection capabilities. The only information it has is just a 'suspected' discovery of space-available information. The entrances and exits used by warships, in this case, mobilize the Gau-class aircraft carrier formations from all over the Americas..."

Unfortunately, the assembly line of the Gau-class aircraft carrier set up by the Zeon Army on Earth happens to be in Seattle. It is based on the original Earth Federation aviation factory and has been repeatedly destroyed in battles with the Federation Army;

Therefore, there are currently a total of 18 Gauwu-class aircraft carriers in the North American theater. It can be said that the loss of one aircraft carrier will permanently reduce the number of aircraft carriers, and it will be difficult to replenish them.

"Don't worry, Lord Dozuru's Space Attack Fleet will also provide support from space. The Federation's anti-air firepower will be the same as a blind man, and amphibious MS will also attack from the tunnels dug to disrupt the Federation. military……"

Seemingly for the sake of realizing Commander-in-Chief Kilian's idea, the senior official of the Guards gave a little explanation, but his tone was full of:

'The plan proposed by Lord Commander Kilian, Lord Dozulu's fleet responsible for orbital bombing, and the intelligence and infiltration force support provided by Lord Kycilia, the three of you will help you together, why don't you have any reason not to complete it? mission' attitude.

"Since it is Commander-in-Chief Kilian's strategic plan, the neighboring African theater and South American theater should also be able to mobilize some troops to support it, right?"

In the spirit of not only being blamed for death, the officers of the North American theater participating in the meeting began to support others. However, considering that the two theaters were retreating steadily under the counterattack of the federal army, such an order to mobilize troops It can be said that it is adding insult to injury and has no regard for the friendship between colleagues.

However, senior Guards officials from the mainland will naturally not care about this;

"Of course, the two Gau-class aircraft carrier formations in the African theater will come across the Atlantic to participate in the war, and the South American theater will also directly deliver troops directly over the no-man's land of the Amazon rainforest. Presumably after the headquarters is attacked , the federal army will definitely be in chaos, and the offensives faced by these two theaters will retreat without a fight."

After seeing someone worse off than themselves, the Zeon officers in the North American theater finally regained some balance and began to discuss internally which mobile suit units to deploy to carry out this mission, which in their eyes was no different from 'sending one's death'.

In the final plan, the Zeon Earth Attack Force dispatched a total of 24 Gau-class aircraft carriers, carrying a total of 72 mobile suits and 192 Dopp fighters to suppress the Gabro airspace and conduct airdrops, as well as 48 Dedai GA tactical bombers. Deployed from the Zeon Army's Cuban base and participated in ground strikes together;

The two underwater wolf packs deployed by the Zeon Navy in the Atlantic Ocean, including the submarine force commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Char, will invest a total of 22 amphibious MSs to participate in the operation, and the submarines will also launch submarine-launched missiles for fire support;

In the end, the Space Attack Force's low-Earth orbit fleet will carry out bombing first, spreading rice particles to paralyze the Federation Army's air detection network, and will also release the last batch of large demons (MS-09) for ground combat - subsequent batches This time has been cancelled, and has been switched to the production of Riko Daemon for space warfare.

'Oh, how about moving the North American theater headquarters to a certain space launch center...'

Looking at the seemingly strong force in front of him, Major General Albrecht was filled with pessimism.

……

Amid the piercing sirens, groups of soldiers from the Federal Guards armed with live ammunition walked through the corridors, following the steel-framed Cyclops;

Since the construction began, the Federal Army's Gabro Base has never sounded an internal combat alarm outside of exercises; this is the first time.

Fortunately, the garrison headquarters was still issuing orders in an orderly manner, and the usual training was not completely forgotten. The largest base of the federal army also entered combat mode with some panic and accidents.

'Restarting the monitoring system. '

The agent controlled the Cyclops tactical robot inside the base and cooperated with federal soldiers to search suspicious locations. At the same time, he also used the newly obtained authorization to take over control of the internal monitoring system of Gabro Base;

However, although the Trojan virus of the Zeon Army's electronic warfare unit has been eliminated, the areas where the surveillance cables were physically blasted are obviously unrecoverable, and troops must be dispatched immediately to confirm the situation.

Zeon's infiltration force was able to plant bombs at those locations and immediately carry out the blasts when they realized that the agents had discovered the backdoor set up in the surveillance system, indicating that they must have stayed here and should not have gone far.

“重点搜索B7 KE1-4区,B6KD6-13区,B5 FE仓库区域,那3个孩子很可能位于这些位置。”

At this time, Shirogane shared some information from Amuro.

"...Can this range be more precise?"

"Second Lieutenant Amuro's original words were: 'It feels like it's in this direction', and he pointed in this direction with his hand; however, the Gabro Base is multi-layered, and the mobility of the three children is, to be honest, unpredictable. So that’s all.”

Bai Jin said helplessly that on the White Base parked inside the base, many battleship-level weapons could not be used at all, so she had no important combat computing tasks and could maintain multiple communication channels at the same time to contact the crew of the White Base. They return to the ship.

"Understood, we will adjust the weight of the search route accordingly."

This area is already one of the areas where monitoring is interrupted, so the order of searches only needs to be slightly adjusted.

"In addition, the intelligence has been updated. There may be enemies in that direction, also coming from Amuro."

This time, Shirogane used a very uncertain tone, because Amuro, who was communicating with her on the other side, said this:

"...Miss Platinum, do you believe what I said?"

"Just relying on intuition and making judgments without factual basis is not credible to me, Second Lieutenant Amuro, even if it is a new human being, unless there are more updates to the federal army's combat regulations regarding the new human beings. …”

Amuro, who was sitting on the shuttle bus, scratched his face a little. He himself didn't quite know what the new human's ability was and what extent it could achieve. The same must be true for the doctors and researchers who examined him before. in this way;

If it is something like intuition, he has had it before, for example: 'I think I should choose C for this reading comprehension question' (the result is wrong), or 'I wonder if this code can run' (although no error is reported but the output The result was not what he wanted), and he has not yet been able to clearly use this gradually developed ability.

"...However, based on our past experience of fighting together, I think your formal opinions are always worthy of reference, and I will pass them on to the base command system."

Platinum replied with a considerate attitude that put aside his identity and pointed directly at people's hearts.

……

"Have you not confirmed the location of the Zeon infiltration unit yet?"

Lieutenant General Jamieson, the security commander of Gabro Base, glanced unconsciously at General Gopp who was sitting beside him. He didn't know whether he was coming to supervise the operation, or he just felt that the surrounding area of ​​the base security headquarters was the most heavily guarded and came to take refuge. , asked in a deep voice.

"We have found some traces of Zeon troops infiltrating, but..."

"Did you wait until the Zeon army came in to react? This is the headquarters of the Federation Army, and the security system is impregnable. How did it happen!"

"Yes, we have established a blockade area and the security forces have also been mobilized..."

"57." The agent whispered in the federal staff member's earphone.

"... 57 squad infantry units entered the area where the camera was hacked and disconnected to search. There are also mobile units on standby. Once traces of the Zeon Army's infiltration troops are found, they can immediately be dispatched to encircle and suppress them."

"Well, not only must we catch the Zeon Army's infiltration troops, but we must also find where they dug the mouse holes!"

Although as the security commander of Gabro Base, Lieutenant General Jamieson has not had the opportunity to command real combat since the war began, no, actually since the army, but he, who was born in a regular federal military academy, has never doubted that Gabro Bro Base will be captured by Zeon, so it's safe to sit still at this time.

"In addition, the Zeon Army will not just sneak in and let the special forces do damage. There must be other units responsible for coordination and coordination. They will receive communications from the Air Defense Command and the base's air force. Please be alert... …”

"There's no need to make such a big fuss."

At this time, Admiral Gopp suddenly interjected.

Chapter 93: All in all (2)

"What... Mr. Gop, what do you mean?"

The security commander of the Gabro Base was a little surprised to see General Gopp, who had always shown himself as a professional in logistics management and government affairs negotiation, and rarely made remarks on military strategy, suddenly speaking;

However, being able to be responsible for defense work in a federal military headquarters like Gabro, where senior officials gathered, Lieutenant General Jamieson still knew that the sky was high and the sky was high, and he had no intention of looking down on Gopp.

"Well... don't be like this. You are the commander of the defense operations. I am just suggesting - you also said that the Zeon Army may have other units to coordinate operations from the outside, right?"

"Yes, considering that there are currently no warnings from frontline bases in Panama and South America, if Zeon wants to play a good game of internal and external attacks, then the only possibility is to land along the river or airdrop troops."

The overall economic level of Latin America is not considered to be good on Earth, and the maintenance of armaments, military service systems, etc. has made great strides in retreat in the decades of peace after the establishment of the Earth Federation;

However, it is precisely because the governments of the Federation-affiliated countries in this area are not considered strong, and the headquarters of the Federation Army, Gabro, is located here. When facing the Zeon army's offensive, the armed forces in this area can be said to be It fully accepts the leadership of Gabro Headquarters and can be regarded as a 'direct line' of the headquarters. The priority of equipment replenishment is also the highest;

In Earth's past war experience, this kind of force that is responsible for guarding the headquarters and has a resource advantage due to political status and other reasons does not necessarily have strong combat effectiveness, but now the situation is different——

Naturally, a series of intelligently controlled unmanned combat units with the Ogas system as the core appear in the equipment supply lists of various forces around Gabro.

With the heavy-duty command vehicle equipped with the Ogas system host as the core, it includes the intelligent control of unmanned Type 61 main battle tanks, self-propelled anti-MS anti-aircraft guns, wire-controlled anti-armor missile launch vehicles, and Cyclops-type tactical robots. Nearly a hundred combined battalions have been deployed in Central and South American theaters;

The air defense, anti-missile, long-range fire strike and other support units attached to each base have also used the Ogas system to a considerable extent to improve the level of automation to make up for the shortage of technical officers and soldiers under the great expansion of the army.

Of course, in reality, the name of the Ogas system is not common. It appears in front of officers and soldiers at all levels of the federal army under various names from various military services or R&D departments -

For them, what is surprising is that these automated systems, which were temporarily developed during the war and used various acronyms, were rarely able to achieve seamless compatibility and ease of operation when exchanging information across systems;

This is still very rare for the federal army, which has only to a certain extent integrated the armies and corresponding hardware and software equipment systems of various independent countries in the past.

Therefore, at least on the continent of South America, the federal army is still as sharp as its ears and eyes.

"Yes, in this case, for the Zeon Army, it must be a big risk to rely only on airborne troops and amphibious troops to fight without the cooperation of ground troops; in this case, we must not scare them. Ran……"

Admiral Gopp leaned on his seat, his big eyes flashed with a cunning light, and he said as if talking to himself:

"...Although I am a general, the office and conference hall are my battlefields; but even so, I also hope to see that the equipment produced by my coordination organization is effective on the battlefield, whether it is MS or AI weapons; in this way, I will be more confident when negotiating funding with the parliament."

Gop stretched out two stubby fingers and tapped on the armrest of the seat.

"I see... I understand, Mr. Gop, but the mobile suit brigade currently staying in the entire base is probably a unit of the Space Force waiting to go into space. In terms of command authority..."

"It doesn't matter. The Zeon Army's infiltration direction is probably the area where the Space Army's shipyard and rocket launch pad are located. They should be more anxious now. I can also help to say hello and let them accept unified command for operations. It's okay. of."

Although the Federal Space Force and the shipyard capable of mass-producing capital ship-level ships sound like a critical facility, in fact, for the entire Gabro Base, it can only be regarded as a peripheral area.
