Gundam, Iron Banner

Sitting on the sofa directly opposite them was a soldier wearing a standard Titans uniform, and the rank on the collar showed the rank of lieutenant.From You Bai's perspective, she couldn't see her face, but judging from the swan-like neck exposed under the hair, she was definitely a young and beautiful woman.

The atmosphere was very heavy and no one spoke. When Brigadier General Blakes saw You Bai and the two of them coming in, he just raised his head and motioned for a seat. He didn't say anything, and handed a letter to Hanken for him to read by himself.

The sound of Ms. Reikoa pouring water resounded throughout the room, making it a little uncomfortable.

You Bai took the teacup from Reikoa, said a word of thanks in a low voice, and looked between the cup and the young woman.

As April said, the person looks really upright, 23 or [-] years old, exuding a serious atmosphere, a bit like the traditional female soldiers in most movies.

"It's quite familiar. It seems to be an important character in the original work. Even I have some impression of this face..."

While thinking about it, Captain Hanken slapped the letter on the table, and said sarcastically: "That Basque guy is really promising, he can even do this kind of battle? Is this how you Titans behave? Emma Lieutenant Xin, you risk your life for this kind of person?"

"That kind of thing—"

The woman named Emma Xin wanted to defend herself, but her words were pale at this time, and she just started, and then she couldn't continue.

Hanken didn't continue talking to her with a stinky face, and raised his hand to hand the letter to You Bai: "Here, take a look too, and see how shameless their Titans can be."

The above text is short and simple, and it can be summed up in two sentences:

If Camus Vidan and Gundam MK-II are not returned, Camus' parents will be killed.

Since he was mentally prepared before, You Bai was not very surprised, touched his chin and sighed: "How should I put it...it's very Basque Ohm's style. This kind of shameless battle, ordinary people really can't do it."

Blakes snorted just right: "That's right! That's his usual style. Even Gene wouldn't engage in such a petty battle!"

You Bai turned his head to look at the woman, and asked slowly: "Lieutenant Emma, ​​did you read this letter before you came?"

"No……"

"That's right, if you've read this letter, no one will be able to come here with a mobile suit as if nothing happened. You were completely used as a gun, Lieutenant."

Chapter 89: Arguments

Hearing You Bai's words, even Emma realized that she had stepped into a trap, and her face suddenly became gloomy: "The hostage battle is not what the army does at all..."

"The Titans are not an army, they are Basque and Gamitov's private troops!" Blakes followed.

"Private troops...?"

Emmaine had never imagined such words, and she was so overwhelmed that she couldn't speak.

According to Colonel Basker Ohm, the group of people in front of them are all space resident instigators who intend to subvert the Earth Federation Government.But judging from what these people heard and the facts of the matter, it was not the case at all.

Which side is it that deceives itself?Emma couldn't tell the difference, so she could only grit her teeth and retort: ​​"We are the federal army! If it is not recognized by the government, we will not get a penny of military expenses."

"Fantasy, the regular army can do this?" Blakes grabbed the handwritten letter on the table and shook it, with a sneer on his face, "Didn't you also be tricked into coming here?"

Not to mention how disgusting hostage warfare is, people like Lieutenant Emma who take a kidnapping letter and go to the enemy's army to serve as envoys will generally not end well.It couldn't be more correct to say that she was used as a gun.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Emma with some pity.

The calmest one right now is Cobatro. He coughed lightly, drawing everyone's attention to himself, and said in a deep voice, "No matter how much you criticize Basque Ohm now, it's useless. We should first consider Mr. Camus's parents. What to do."

Hanken scratched his head, and then said: "Isn't Lieutenant Emma here? Lieutenant You Bai just captured a federal soldier and exchanged them with Basque for hostages, so it's no problem, right? It just so happened that she drove over with a Gundam , that is to say, this one was also captured by us.”

He was a careless person, and he planned to take Emma as a hostage regardless of whether Emma was still here.

Blakes asked in a low voice: "It's too dangerous to get in touch with the other party in this situation, and you will be attacked. Can you forcefully break away?"

"Maybe he can escape, but it's hard to explain to Camus."

"Now is a matter of life and death, and we can't control what children think."

Hearing their conversation, Lieutenant Emma stood up abruptly: "Even if things are as you said, Titans did shameless bad things. What about you? Shut me up as a negotiating envoy and completely ignore that Parents of the child, you Aogu are no different from Titans, right? You are simply hooligans!"

The Commodore General and the Captain fell silent at the same time. They looked at each other. Captain Hanken went to the wall and grabbed the walkie-talkie to ask about the enemy's situation. The Commodore General put the letter back on the table helplessly, rubbed his temples and said:

"...Lieutenant, you don't know much about Basque Ohm. He is a character who made his fortune through a special experience. He has never even experienced the battlefield himself. How can he understand the weight of human life? Even if we return the things, the child It will be a matter of time before he and his family are cleaned up."

"Colonel, he—"

Emma wanted to argue a few more words, but Hanken interrupted her: "There are two ships coming out of the green oasis, and they seem to have merged with the defenders of Luna 2. The number of mobile suits cannot be grasped, and it should be indispensable... ...How do you say it? Brigadier General."

"It's not easy to buy time. Fighting is inevitable. Hanken will inform the situation, let the crew prepare for the battle, pay attention to the hostages and raise their morale. Captain Cobatro and Lieutenant You Bai, you guys Let's attack, find a way to cover 'Agama' from leaving."

After assigning tasks, Blakes and Hanken left the room one after the other, and Cobatro patted You Bai on the shoulder and then left.

You Bai was not in a hurry to leave, he asked Emma in a calm voice, "Is it hard to accept?"

Emma looked very haggard, but still managed to show a not-so-good-looking smile: "How should I put it, it's completely different from what I heard on Earth."

"Ideals conflict with reality, isn't it hard? I also felt this way when I stayed in Titans before."

"Have you been in Titans before? So young..."

"It happened more than a year ago. At that time, I was the team leader of the T3 troop for a few days. If I hadn't discovered the true face of Titans, I might have a higher rank than you."

"true colors?"

"Well... let's talk about that when we have time."

Under Lieutenant Emma's strange gaze, You Bai left quickly.

……

The news that Titans adopted hostage tactics spread throughout the entire "Agama" in an instant. The officers and soldiers who heard the news were all stunned. Everyone was disgusted by the atrocities of Titans from the bottom of their hearts. Friendly technical officers as hostages?It's sleazy and stupid.

"What kind of hostage is it, it's too cunning!"

"Only the Basques can do such a thing!"

Coincidentally, Camus, who had just put on his helmet and put on the standard uniform of the staff, also heard the wind.

"hostage……?"

In order to return to the living area, he was crossing the passage at the moment, and when he heard the words of the soldier who put down the intercom, his attention was immediately attracted.

Maybe it was the instinct of the new human being that made him aware of something, and he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, so he hurried up to talk and asked, "What's the matter with the hostage?!"

"It's the parents of the kid who brought MK-II. They were taken hostage by Titans." The soldier replied subconsciously, then felt something was wrong, and asked, "Who are you? I don't seem to have seen you? "

"I'm the brat you mentioned!"

Leaving those words behind, Camus ran towards the hangar.

……

"What? Camus attacked with MK-II?"

Hearing the communication from "Agama", You Bai was dumbfounded.

He was driving the fully charged special machine to the battlefield at the moment, and when he heard the news, he suddenly had the idea of ​​looking back for Camus.

Camus should not be allowed to attack in this battle. This has nothing to do with strength or anything, but out of the most basic human ethics.The other party took his parents as hostages. It would be fine if he could be rescued. If Camus saw his parents die in front of him, how broken would he be?

Just at this time, the surveillance soldiers on the ship sent a message: "An unidentified airtight cabin was found!"

Looking towards the corner of the universe at the coordinates he gave, the red and green aviation logos are flashing in the open combat airspace.

A friendly aircraft closest to the side sent a message: "Visual inspection is possible! I will send the video to you!"

Looking at the "jar" and Gao Zhagu displayed on the screen, You Bai fell into uneasiness after a long absence.From the coordinates sent by his teammates, he could feel the distinct fear and despair.There is no doubt that what is contained in the airtight cabin over there is nothing but living people.

Chapter 90: In a Jar

Lieutenant Gelit Mesa, who was riding Gozagu, sat bored in the cockpit. The body kept the posture of aiming the muzzle of the gun at the airtight cabin not far away. Holding the end of the joystick, he stared at the newly opened order letter handed to him by Major Carmecan himself.

"Well, let me take a look, 'When Emmazine has not returned from the enemy ship after the negotiations, if the enemy is found to have the intention of seizing the airtight cabin, or if there is a similar behavior, attack the airtight cabin'...there is What is it, how can it be exploded? A powerful weapon such as a nuclear bomb? Could it be that you want to kill the MS of the friendly army at the same time?"

Gelit was a little nervous, worried that something terrible would happen if he attacked the airtight compartment.

He wanted to see clearly what was in the airtight cabin, but the things inside were too small, and the imaging function of the body could not restore the scene inside, so he had no choice but to give up, thinking that his first actual combat was really ill-fated.

And in this airspace, there was another person who also fought for the first time.

Camus Verdan is driving the stolen MK-II towards this side.

It has to be said that the light of the red and green aviation logo is very conspicuous in the universe, even a beginner like Camus can quickly find its trace.

"Is mom in there?"

Camus sat in the cockpit, looking at the jar with complicated emotions.He bit his trembling lips tightly, not wanting it to show his inner wavering.

"Damn Titans...!"

Novices never like to control speed and fuel consumption, not to mention that Camus is eager to save his family, so he directly drives the speed of MK-II to the maximum, and soon enters the distance where he can visually see the airtight cabin.

But because of this, although he approached the airtight cabin, he flew over the head in an instant because he rushed too fast.

"Tsk!!"

Camus quickly slowed down the group, and approached the airtight cabin containing his mother while circling.As a matter of course, Jie Lite has already discovered the trajectory of the Gundam, the tail nozzle of the Gundam and the posture adjustment nozzles of the whole body are shining wantonly, and it is difficult for people not to notice him.

"What's the matter, that Gundam..." Gelit frowned, feeling extremely surprised, "Isn't Lieutenant Emma sitting in it? Her skills are quite excellent, so she can't even make an emergency stop, right?" .”

Thinking of this, he zoomed in on the screen, and the Gundam tremblingly stopped near the airtight cabin, and the number 3 was engraved on its shoulder, indicating that the machine body was already taken away from the "Gundam MK- II Unit No. [-]".

"Oh! How dare you come!"

Jielit immediately cheered up, and immediately adjusted the muzzle of the gun slightly, "Although I am curious about what is inside, but since you dare to come, I will not be polite."

His sight is fixed on the airtight compartment.

Unlike Gelit, who was still a little away, Camus, who was close to the side, could of course see what was in the airtight cabin.On the screen of Gundam, he found the face he had seen all his life.

In his opinion, his mother Hilda is a very strong woman, no matter in work or in life, she always has the aura of a strong woman, exuding that she will never lose to anyone stubborn.Camus has always been proud of having such a strong mother.

However, now she has lost that feeling, curled up in the corner of the airtight cabin, looking very timid.She didn't wear standard clothes, and the work clothes she usually wears are naked in this universe.The whole person is like a little chick that has landed on the ground, in stark contrast to the huge palm of MS, as if it will shatter at the touch of it.

"Why are you always giving me trouble, why do you appear in this kind of place...!"

Camus muttered like a groan, and Gundam grabbed the lower half of the airtight compartment.

Hilda didn't know that it was her own son who was driving the mobile suit, she instinctively shrank back, as if she could avoid the danger coming towards her by doing so.

Seeing her appearance, Camus became even more anxious: "I'm here to save you!!"

But this sentence could not be conveyed to his mother, the jar was not even connected to the touch channel.

He was about to shout something more, when suddenly, the new human's instinct made him sense a danger coming from behind.

Looking to the side, what I saw was a beam of light coming straight towards the airtight cabin, and what was attached to that beam was a pitch-black murderous intent, as well as some kind of feeling that was almost happy.

That is--

Camus, who had never actually been on the battlefield, froze for a moment, he couldn't understand what the malice and scorching eyes were.

By the time he reacted, it was too late for him to manipulate the machine to block the beam.The beam of light exploded in front of his eyes, blinding his eyes for a moment.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

The screams almost tore his throat apart.

But in the next moment, he found that the airtight compartment in his palm was intact, and the light beam just now was like a phantom, and did not cause any damage.

"what happened--!?"

In an instant, Camus' breathing stopped, his back was soaked in cold sweat, and his mind was filled with fear.

He wasn't the only one who questioned. A little distance away, Gelet's eyes widened, and he was speechless.

It took him a second or two to realize that he was still on the battlefield, and quickly ignited the thrusters to retreat, muttering in his mouth: "Damn it! How is it possible? My attack was canceled out from a distance!? "

At this time, he discovered the signal of another mobile suit appeared on the radar.

Looking back, it was a white "Lick Dias", holding a long-range beam rifle in its hand, the muzzle of the gun was facing the position of the airtight cabin, obviously, it was a good thing that its own attack failed just now .

You Bai sat in this "Rick Dias", his face was full of excitement, he rushed to the side of the Gundam that Camus was driving at full speed, blocked the enemy's view of the closed cabin with his fuselage, and at the same time put his hand on the On Gundam's shoulder, a message was sent to the boy: "Camus, don't be childish on the battlefield, take your mother back to 'Agama'!"

"Lieutenant You Bai...!"

Hearing a familiar voice suddenly, Camus seemed to have been drained of strength, and collapsed on the driver's seat.He wanted to say thank you, but his nose felt a little sore, and he was afraid that the sound he made would sound like a cry, so he nodded repeatedly, and rushed to the location of "Agama" with the airtight cabin.

Watching him leave, You Bai also heaved a sigh of relief.

He went to the battlefield to protect these people who needed protection, and this time he finally got his wish, how could he not be excited?

"Okay! Despicable fellows of Titans, is it fun to vent your anger on hostages? Let me accompany you!"
