Gundam, but from the Ground Alliance to the Human Alliance to the out-of-control servitor

Unfortunately, although the armies of some of the participating countries still maintain the tradition of integrating officers and soldiers, the federal army as a whole maintains two distinct career lines: soldiers are soldiers and officers are officers;

The ranks of the members of the Professional Soldiers Union naturally start from training soldiers and end at sergeant major. Although middle and lower-level officers may have many sympathizers of the mutinous soldiers, those like Second Lieutenant Moran who can gain the trust of the soldiers directly represent the mutinous side. It is rare for people to come to negotiate.

But Lieutenant Moran still remained alert;

"I stand with my soldiers. This is a resistance to the unfairness of the federal army and a system that will even lead to more irreparable results. I think this is right and what I should do."

"Hmm, so talking about the Federation Army's system, if you are the Chief of Staff of Rebil, you are now facing the pressure of the Zeon Army raging on the earth, and you are ready to drive the Zeon Army out of the earth. Combined with what you have seen at the grassroots level , how do you think we should solve the problem?"

"I am Chief of Staff Ray Bill...?"

"Yes, you are standing with the soldiers. Although you graduated early, it does not affect that you have received two and a half years more professional training than the new recruits. You should at least have thought about being a general yourself. You and Chief of General Staff Rebil The only difference is how long you have been in the army, right?"

"Chief of General Staff Ray Bill...that's a huge gap,"

Lieutenant Moran smiled bitterly, also picked up a cookie and put it into his mouth;

"I also read the teaching materials compiled by him when I was in the military academy, but why did I suddenly mention General Ray Bill? He should be paying attention to the space army now, right? On another continent."

For a person with a high security level like Ray Bill, his itinerary is naturally kept highly confidential, and relevant military news reports involving his position are strictly prohibited from being released until the desensitization period has passed.

"Ah, by the way, it seems you don't know yet? But it doesn't matter. You can see Chief of General Staff Ray Bill talking to you a little later."

After all, the meaning I learned from Rebir above was to highlight his personal role in the perfect solution to the mutiny, so it is allowed for Dandelai to reveal it now.

[Based on various sources, Admiral Ray Bill is working hard, even desperately, to accumulate reputation for himself. Where will his path lead mankind? 】

Ogas knew that in the if lines of many Gundam worldview works in the previous life, if Ray Bill survived this war, he would appear as a more powerful version of the Federation's "Paperer", but he did not have any regard for his personal political views. Not much description——

Improvements such as fighting corruption and reducing the level of bureaucracy in the military and government can only be said to be minor repairs that have nothing to do with the fundamentals.

"What, the Gabro headquarters is not connected here... Admiral Ray Bill is still in Europe?!"

"No, I just arrived. After all, you all can guess that the federal army will launch a large-scale offensive next. Chief of General Staff Ray Bill came here just for this. Unexpectedly, you gave it to him as soon as he got off the plane. What a surprise.”

"No...I'm not, I never thought..."

Second Lieutenant Moran was obviously a little stunned; it seemed that because Rebir's position was too high and he was out of contact with him on weekdays, and he always had a very positive image, in Second Lieutenant Moran's mind he was separated from the incompetent and corrupt officers he hated.

"Think about it carefully, Second Lieutenant. Admiral Rebel attaches great importance to this matter and is willing to solve your problems. But as an officer, you also need to think about your requests. Which ones are reasonable and which ones are not? reasonable."

Dandelai kicked the ground lightly with both feet, pushed the chair back, stood up, and finally said:

"No matter what the reason is, mutiny in the army is not something that can be easily forgiven; Second Lieutenant, before Chief of General Rebil publicly states the situation, think about your future and the future of your subordinates; be proactive and you can still have maneuvers room."

Admiral Ray Bill did not come to Europe alone and empty-handed. Two entire brigades of Federation mass-produced mobile suits, Jim, also came to Europe from Gabro with him to prepare for the next offensive.

Apart from anything else, at least in terms of momentum, traditional land warfare weapons that emphasize low visibility are still difficult to compare with the MS that stands 17-8 meters high from the ground.

Chapter 66: The vast world (4)

For General Raibil, although one of the final results of the 'V Plan' he led, the Federation Army's own general mass production model MS, Jim (GM), the first two production batches were ordered by the Federation Army;

However, the selection and training of pilots, as well as the preparation and support of troops, were all carried out under the nose of Gabriel Bill. After being brought to the European theater with him, he was naturally considered completely trustworthy. force.

In a meeting with senior federal military officials in Europe, he vigorously dealt with a group of derelict officers with solid evidence and whose highest rank was only major general - who could more or less have an explanation for the mutinous soldiers without triggering excessive backlash from local factions in Europe. after;

Rebir began preparations for a final attempt to appease the mutinous troops.

"General Rebeer, the transport fleet of the Air Force Global Deployment Command is already in place. The two groups have a total of 96 Jims, and can actually dispatch 84. They are all boarded and in place. It is expected that they can arrive at any mutinous unit within three hours. station."

Several federal officers of different ages were reporting around Rebil. They were either confidantes brought by Rebil from the Gabro headquarters, or they had been his students at the military academy. Rebil ensured that he could A team that can exert sufficient influence on the European-Asian front.

General Rebeer, who is definitely dissatisfied with the current system of the Federal Army, relies on his reform ideas and charisma to naturally attract many officers who are also dissatisfied with the status quo into his network;

In addition, Ray Bill is now the supreme commander of the 4th Federation Army, and the interpersonal relationships he established when he taught in the military academy and served as a transfer review officer during the large-scale expansion of the Space Force can also be transformed into his assistance.

"Well...it is necessary to be able to deploy at the same time to achieve maximum deterrence and avoid mutual communication between the mutinous troops; at the same time, we must strictly follow the rules of fire to avoid intensifying the situation and causing bloodshed."

Ray Bill closed his eyes and leaned back in the chair, cherishing this short rest time; he had only slept intermittently for more than four hours today. For an old man like him who has long passed the retirement age, the work intensity is really intense. It's a bit high

"Don't worry, we have avoided any possible interference in the European Theater of Operations. From the troops to the airlift, we are all people we can trust."

"Enemies exist both outside and within us, so we must stay vigilant; but we must also be careful to avoid 'creating' enemies that we shouldn't have. For those who do not clearly show hostility or confrontation, follow the normal rules. The Federal Army follows the procedures, there is no need to deliberately bypass them."

"It's...General Ray Bill."

At this time, a federal officer hurriedly walked out of the information command and control room next door, holding a document under his arm, and knocked on the door outside the lounge where Admiral Ray Bill was temporarily staying.

"General Rebil, the urgent information was sent from the Gabro headquarters; the other one was sent directly to you through the joint chiefs of staff meeting..."

The federal officer who came to report the news, wearing the armband of an agency directly affiliated with Gabro's headquarters, looked around hesitantly;

"Okay then, you go prepare the deployment first and keep the MS troops on standby in the air; after I make the public announcement, take action immediately if you see where the situation cannot be controlled."

Ray Bill nodded and dismissed the other officers in the room. At this time, the officer who followed Ray Bill was responsible for contacting and monitoring the flagship high-end mobile suit body, Gundam, and the accompanying air and space dual-purpose assault landing ship under the 'V Plan'. Only the officer in the horse-level situation spoke:

"...General, according to the information transferred from the Federation Army in Alaska, the White Base and the Gundam have been confirmed to have landed in the Zeon Army-controlled area in North America. They have been in contact with our troops behind enemy lines and may now be landed in Seattle. Our troops have arrived."

Rebel opened his eyes, and the sleepiness in his mind instantly dissipated a little. He took the document from the reporting officer and started to read it.

"Did they break out from behind the Zeon army? I remember that the battleship is still manned by many temporary volunteers, right?"

"Yes--"

The federal officer standing by the side blushed a little when he said these words;

"——It was attacked by the Zeon army before. The original crew suffered too much loss, so a second lieutenant could only be temporarily responsible for the command. In this case, Luna 2 has been blocked, and there is no way to separate the manpower. , had to..."

"Where's Cunningham? He might be worried now that there are too many officials and too few people who can do the work."

Rebel glanced at the small thoughts in the eyes of the officers on the side and thought in his heart:

'He is... He was working with Major General Gao Yun, who was born in a technical field. I heard that Gao Yun and Tianmu have been very close recently... Forget it, I am still here, and there won't be any problems. '

After all, it would be strange if there were no small groups within a large group. Thinking of this, Ray Bill suddenly felt a rush of hot blood rising from his neck. He suddenly became dizzy, and the densely packed words in the report in his hand also became like tadpoles in a trance. Same, swinging across his retinas.

"Admiral Ray Bill!?"

"It's okay - it's okay, no need to call anyone, I'm just too tired."

Rebel quickly took out a small medicine bottle from the inner pocket of his jacket, unscrewed it, poured out a few pills and swallowed them whole;

"Oh - in this case, you can read the important points for me."

The liaison officer hurriedly took back the report documents from Admiral Ray Bill, feeling a little flustered. After all, he had never read these documents in detail, but fortunately, he quickly glanced at the words on the report and felt a little calmer. ——

Although there are no rules and regulations yet, many federal officers at the Gabro Headquarters now use the AI ​​proofreading applet newly developed this year by the Automation Research Institute of the Headquarters Technology Development Bureau to check when processing paperwork;

This at least ensures that the report's table of contents, opening introduction, and the first sentence of each subsequent paragraph that leads the entire paragraph are all impeccable in terms of logic and functional significance in summary, although this is supposed to be practical writing. Basic skills, but judging from his experience, there are many people who couldn't even do this in the past.

But now, as long as he reads it, he is guaranteed to grasp the main points of the text.

"The White Base reported its return position into the atmosphere, which was close to the sky above New Mexico. It was immediately intercepted by the Zeon Army and Air Force, but was successfully repelled..."

"...Then he lowered his altitude and got close to the ground, trying to use rice particles to conceal himself. At night, he encountered multiple Zeon troops, and they broke through continuously, destroying MS Zaku 7 and more than 50 armored vehicles..."

"...In the early morning, we encountered the enemy's Commander-in-Chief of the Earth Attack Force, Kalma, who personally led a fighter formation to attack, counterattack, and damaged the enemy's Kalma aircraft...?!"

After reading this, the liaison officer's own voice couldn't help but rise.

"Is the dignified commander-in-chief personally flying in a fighter jet to attack? The tutor of the Zabi family is no more than that."

Rebelle rubbed his temples with his fingers to relieve his dizziness;

"However, under such adversity, the White Base can still fight back, which is really commendable."

"No... no, General Rebir is suspected of killing the enemy commander-in-chief Kalma!" the officer exclaimed.

Although the report says 'injury', the editor's note at the Gabro headquarters next to it says in small letters:

'Supplementary information: The shooting down was confirmed. The enemy commander-in-chief Kalma parachuted out. He was suspected of encountering our guerrilla forces behind enemy lines and was killed in the battle. His body, identity confirmation mark, and several ID photos are now available, to be confirmed from other channels. '

At this time, Admiral Rebir was completely awake. As an enemy, Kalma Zabi, although from a tactical point of view Rebir did not think he was an opponent worthy of attention, from a strategic and even political perspective, he could really be killed. Words can very much tip the balance of victory.

"Tell me more about what's going on...forget it, just show it to me."

Without blinking, Ray Bill snatched the document from the liaison officer's hand, held it up in front of him and looked at it carefully.

"General, there are other supplementary intelligence materials in the appendix page at the back of this document. The headquarters' view is that Karma's death is too childish to believe, but if this is indeed the case, some abnormal movements of the Zeon army will be It can be explained..."

After about a few minutes, Ray Bill put down the intelligence documents with relief, took out a box of cigars from the other inner pocket of his jacket and said with a smile:

"Having such evidence is enough. Although it sounds bizarre, it is enough to let Karma, a young man in his 20s and less than five years after graduating from a military academy, be responsible for the lives of millions of Zeon soldiers on the surface of the earth. This thing is quite bizarre..."

The federal officer on the side quickly took out a box of matches from his body. He often stays around these big guys who like to smoke cigars. He must have these things on him, but he cannot use an ordinary lighter to light people;

The officer struck a match, and when the head of the match dissipated and the wooden part burned evenly, he cautiously moved over to help Admiral Rebel light the cigar.

"...With such exciting good news, it becomes much easier to boost morale; we cannot wait until the Zeon Army announces the death of such a good thing before we announce it. Let me revise my speech again. Add this great joy to the mix!”

Admiral Ray Bill showed a rare expression of relaxation and joy, took a puff of his cigar, and continued to give instructions:

"This white base is really a lucky star; let's see, the postponement of the counterattack plan is inevitable anyway. The inventory of ammunition and material reserves here in Europe, the preparation of equipment within the establishment, and the reorganization of the mutinous soldiers are all required. A lot of time..."

"... Let them repair and restore their combat power without delay. Set off immediately and move closer to the Eurasian continent; let's first participate in the subsequent counterattack in the name of an independent mobile force."

Admiral Ray Bill held his cigar and shook it on the ashtray. As he spoke, he decided the fate of the White Base crew.

"Yes, Admiral Ray Bill!"

"By the way -" Seeing the officer responsible for liaison with the relevant parties of the 'V Plan' opening the door and about to leave, Admiral Ray Bill added:

"——In order to maintain combat effectiveness, there is no need to investigate the private installation of the intelligent control system on the White Base for the time being, but do not publicize it and keep it strictly confidential. At the same time, copy all the combat processing data and save it. That's it, you go. "

……

During the news time at 7 o'clock that evening, General Rebeer appeared in the live news broadcast and gave a speech. Although he did not explicitly mention the collective mutiny of federal army recruits in Europe, he made many demands on the unions that organized the mutiny. To respond:

This includes notices of suspension pending trial for a series of related dereliction of duty officers, as well as an attitude towards resolute rectification of certain 'chaos' in the military that engages in income-generating activities, and more importantly -

The news of the death of Commander-in-Chief of the Zeon Earth Attack Force, Karma, and the image of the Federation Army's mass-produced mobile suit entering combat deployment state were disclosed, reaffirming that Zeon must lose and the Federation must win, and that the day of victory is already far away. The belief that it is not far away now.

In fact, the last one is that some lucky mutinous troops might be able to see it just by looking outside the door of their camp.

"We meet again~, Second Lieutenant Moran."

In the evening breeze of October, compared with the previous meeting indoors, the black-haired girl in front of me wore a military coat over her long skirt, but she still bent down nimbly and got through the yellow blockade and walked to the In front of Lieutenant Moran.

But this time, Lieutenant Moran's face was much uglier.

"Is this your confidence? Our own mobile suit...the first time it appeared, its gun was pointed at friendly forces?"

Most of Second Lieutenant Moran's eyes were attracted to Jim not far behind Dandelai, who was holding a shield in one hand and a machine gun in the other. In order to ensure that the mutinous soldiers could clearly see Jim, the task force specially obtained Several high-powered searchlights shone light from Jim's feet.

"That depends on whether you are friendly forces. How about it? Admiral Ray Bill has saved you enough face; we have also deleted everything on social media, so you still have room to turn back."

"How is it possible... Even if it is deleted now, many people have already seen our struggle, and the impact has spread."

Lieutenant Moran shook his head, as if it was still difficult to accept that the mutiny they had painstakingly planned had now ended like the most despicable farce that no one even mentioned.

"The Zeon net agents' conspiracy, or the rumors spread by criminals - coupled with the great news announced by Chief of General Rebil that the commander-in-chief of the Zeon Earth Attack Force was killed, as well as the experience of the legendary unit White Base, tomorrow , maybe you and I who have experienced it are the only ones who still remember this incident."

Dandelai did not force himself to attract Second Lieutenant Moran's attention. Instead, he shook his body and turned half a circle, then took a step back to his side, and together they looked at Team Jim, who was deployed here as a last resort. Said softly:

"How are you, have you made up your mind?"

"Do we still have a choice? People's hearts have been dispersed. Some people think that the wise General Rebir has heard our request and punished the middle management who failed to implement the matter; some people think that just suspending him pending investigation is not thorough enough. I didn’t respond to other requests, but I didn’t dare to confront the MS troops.”

Second Lieutenant Moran shook his head in frustration, "We are willing to release the detained camp commander unconditionally. As the organizer of the mutiny, I am willing to bear all responsibilities."

"Uh-huh - then I have to pay tribute to you, Second Lieutenant Moran, in advance, because if you report successfully, you will be promoted~"

"what--?"

Chapter 67: The vast world (End)

Under the combination of kindness and power of Admiral Ray Bill, coupled with the great news that the commander-in-chief of the Zeon Earth Attack Force, Karma Zabi, was killed, the mutiny caused by the recruits in the European theater naturally failed to grab the hot search list. to a place of honour, only to be quickly forgotten in public memory;

For most of the participants in the mutiny, the troop structure was broken up and redistributed, but General Rebier also assured that their treatment and camp environment would be improved, and the officers above them also had many new faces, and They are all well-behaved;

Although not all demands were met, however:

"That's almost it. Let's just give it up. Is it really possible to rebel at this critical juncture of the Zeon army's great enemy? Wouldn't that give the Zeon guys an advantage?"

As for the organizers and instigators of the mutiny, they include a small number of grassroots officers, professional non-commissioned officers who have been hanging around from peacetime, and some new conscripts with rich 'social experience'——

Some were promoted inexplicably, some were transferred to the 'main' troops that would take the lead in the next combat operations, and some were dismissed for unrelated reasons such as the discovery of strong alcohol in their dormitories. Closed.

Under the personal supervision and coordination of General Rebel, the preparations for the large-scale offensive that the Federal Army was about to launch were implemented one by one. Of course, this will inevitably take a lot of time. It is obviously not feasible to launch the plan in early October as originally planned. It’s impossible.

However, this also allowed General Rebir to mobilize more troops and equipment and prepare for the offensive that he personally carefully planned. As the chief of staff of the Fourth Army, he has not fought a few decent victories since the war began. Generals still have to prove themselves on the battlefield, and a successful speech alone is not enough.
