A journey through the Gundam world

Of course, these things don’t seem to have much to do with the lives of lower-class civilians.

These civilians struggling to survive complain more about the inconvenience caused by the blockade and rising prices.

However, they would not take to the streets to protest against Gjallarhorn's blockade. Even when passing the blockade on the edge of the city, they would subconsciously stay away.

When Tekkadan arrived in Edmonton, there were still four days before the parliamentary election.

After a night of repairs, during the day of the next day after arriving, Tekkadan's MW troops escorted the armored vehicle Shimei was riding in and advanced along the highway to a blocked bridge on the outskirts of Edmonton.

"Come on! Get ready for battle!"

Upon seeing this, Gallarhorn's troops immediately heightened their vigilance.

The MW leveled the muzzle, the infantry hid behind the bunker, raised their guns, and the battle was about to break out.

However, Tekkadan and the escorting armored vehicles stopped at the other end of the bridge, with no intention of rushing up.

"What are they doing?"

Just when Gallallhorn didn't know what kind of medicine Tekkadan Gourd was selling.

On the leading MW, a shirtless Olga grabbed the intercom.

"We are the Tekka Group escorting the former representatives of Japan to Edmonton to participate in the parliamentary election. Please let Gjalalhorn get out of the way. Representatives of Japan want to enter the city."

Facing the other party's shouting, the people in Gjallarhorn looked at each other.

They had already imagined a situation where Tekkadan would directly force their way in.

As long as the other party takes action, then oneself can give a head-on blow.

I believe that with the superior force and waiting for work, the opponent has no chance of winning.

But unexpectedly, the other party did the opposite and directly made a public announcement to them.

What's even worse is that they discovered that Tekkadan's team not only had escorting MWs and armored vehicles, but also a large group of reporters recruited from who knows where!

At this time, a large number of reporters appeared from nowhere behind the Gallarhorn defense line.

Although they were stopped outside the cordon, these guys who were not afraid of death set up long guns and short cannons outside the cordon and started reporting.

"Viewers! Now we can see that at the other end of the bridge is the team represented by Shi Miao Mae! They are blocked by Gjalalhorn on the other side!"

"We don't know yet whether Gjallarhorn will fire!"

"Let's wait and see! Oh oh oh, look, Gjallarhorn is ready to fight!"

For a while, the scene was more lively than the vegetable market.

In full view of the public, even if Gjallarhorn's commander was a pig, he would not dare to give the order to fire easily.

After all, the other party has a bug, and the excuse for blocking Edmonton is to protect the parliamentary elections.

But it didn’t say anything above, after the representatives participating in the election arrive, should they be released or not?

Letting go is tantamount to breaking the blockade.

Not letting them go would be tantamount to deliberately blocking delegates from entering, which is interference in internal affairs.

The frontline commander was in trouble, but Tekkadan continued to shout.

"Please give me permission. The person in the car is Mr. Shimiao who is going to participate in the parliamentary election. What do you mean by blocking the legitimate election representatives from entering the city? Who ordered you to do this? Is it Galal? Horn, are you trying to interfere in the internal affairs of the economic circle?"

Olga was still unhurried, but she shouted every word that touched her heart.

His words reached the ears of reporters across the bridge through a loudspeaker.

Let these uncrowned kings who are not afraid of death work even harder to report on the current situation.

It was so lively on the opposite side, and the reporters at the bridgehead didn't give in too much.

"Viewers, we are now at the other end of the bridge! The representative of Shimee, who was escorted by Tekkadan, was blocked... Oh oh oh! The representative of Shimei has appeared!"

At this moment, Shimiao even got off the armored vehicle and held a press conference on the spot!

For a time, both ends of the bridge were as busy as a frying pan.

The content of Tekkadan's shouting was like making a pot of oil boil over a fire.

But Gjallarhorn's on-site conductor was like an ant on a hot pot, suffering.

In this case, the commander who dared not make the decision without authorization could only report the situation.

Then he waited for orders from his superiors, and at the same time strictly ordered his subordinates not to fire the first shot.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to order the MW guns to point their guns in the air and all soldiers to carry their guns.

Facts have proved that his response was very reasonable. At least he effectively controlled the scene before the orders from his superiors arrived.

However, when the commander received the order from his superiors, he couldn't help but curse.

"Hold your position? Aren't I just holding your position? What does this order mean?"

On the phone, I heard an understatement from my superiors, an order to stand firm.The commander's blood pressure rose rapidly.

He is not a fool. The meaning of this order is not to give way to the passage, but in this case, if anything happens, the responsibility will be on him.

If you let the opponent in, it means he failed to hold his position.

If he did not let the other party in and a firefight broke out, it was because he acted arbitrarily and did not follow the orders of his superiors.

Anyway, this pot belongs to the on-site commander.

Hanging up the phone angrily, the commander could only give orders.

"Everyone continues to maintain the current status, do not fire first!"

This was already the best way he could think of.

The frontline commanders did not know that the purpose of Gjallarhorn's top brass was to interfere with the election.

That's why he deliberately issued such an ambiguous order.

On the Tekkadan side, Olga saw that the other party did not respond, but after observing that the other party did not dare to fire.

He took out a tape recorder from the car and played the pre-recorded speech directly in a loop.

After all, shouting through a loudspeaker is also a physical job.

As for Gjalalhorn, he pretended not to hear and continued to implement the blockade order.

So neither side took the initiative to open fire, and fell into a strange sit-down war.

Even at lunch time, Olga turned off the tape recorder so that the ears of both parties who were having lunch could be clear.

It was quiet until 2 pm. After the lunch break, Olga continued to play and shout.

When the sky started to darken, Tekkadan turned off the shouting and began to retreat, escorting Shimiao himself.

It was getting late, cooking should have started in the base, and they had to rush back to eat.

After watching the other side evacuate, the on-site commander of Gallarhorn, who had been tense all day, breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that the two sides had been facing off for a whole day without fighting, the reporters on both sides also hurriedly ended the live broadcast and went home.

Looks like I don’t have to work overtime in the cold wind tonight!

Alex was waiting for Olga and others to return at the camp, and stepped forward to greet them.

"Thank you, everyone."

He had already seen the other party's reaction through the live broadcast.

It can be said that Gjallarhorn's reaction did not exceed his expectations.

Today's show was also a plan jointly formulated by him and Shi Miao after discussing it.

Since the last time outside the Dot universe, Gudelia used a speech to make the Moon Ring fleet give up the attack.

He had a good idea on how to make Gallallhorn unable to dismount.

As long as the other party's actions are completely exposed to the camera, the other party, who has a heavy idol burden, will take the initiative to tie himself up and make it difficult for him to get off.

Although Gjallarhorn is a violent organization, there is no high-sounding reason for doing so in front of the camera.

The opponent who claims to be the spokesperson of justice will not take action easily.

The Gallarhorn branch in the Outer Colonies may be a little more unscrupulous.

After all, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away. As long as I act hard and fast enough, the message will be physically blocked.

And when it comes to near-Earth colonies and colonial satellites, Gallallhorn has to find a reason to take action.

The thief shouts to catch the thief, and the thief is a common tactic.

Although old-fashioned, with the cooperation of the media, it can effectively guide public opinion.

What?The media won't cooperate?

It doesn’t matter, there is only one seat in the space rafting group without space suits!

But if the economic circle is behind it, their actions cannot be unscrupulous.

Just like the time in Dortmund 2, the African Union broke Gjalalhorn's signal shield and broadcast Gudilia's speech.

As a result, dozens of battleships and hundreds of MSs could only choose to watch the Yuhuo pass through their obstructions safely, but they were helpless.

But on earth, the situation is different.

This is not only Gallarhorn's home base, but also the base of the economic circle.

The confrontation between the two sides is more intense here, but the methods are also more civilized.

The kind of behavior that eliminates opponents from the physical level can be easily exposed unless they are really looking for a deserted place.

Therefore, the confrontation between them is more based on public opinion.

So the media, with the support of their respective sponsors, began to criticize the other party.

Today was 'shock!'Gjalalhorn actually did such a thing! '

Tomorrow is 'Indignation!'The economic circle actually ignores the facts and makes up random things! '

But overall, Gjallarhorn is at a disadvantage.

Just like today, under the constant criticism from reporters, Gjallarhorn behaved very civilly.

In order to prevent accidental damage, the muzzle of the company's MW was raised vertically.

This kind of thing is unimaginable in the distant colonies.

If it were Mars, the opponent would most likely have flattened the muzzle and even fired the reporter.

How could it be possible to watch Shimiao's face dancing like this now without any reaction?

Therefore, including Olga’s shout-out and Shimiao’s press conference held at the scene.

They were all suggestions made by him, and the purpose of doing so was other than to judge that Gallallhorn did not dare to take action.

Or to let people in Edmonton know that the seedlings have arrived.

And it’s just outside the city!

To his enemies, this is a dangerous signal that can make them nervous.

For his supporters, it's a boost that gives them more confidence to take on their opponents.

However, in the final analysis, these are all smoke bombs set off by Alex.

"Captain Alex, do I still need to show up tomorrow?"

Shimiao returned to her residence and took the initiative to ask Alex.

But Alex shook his head.

"No, it is estimated that a conflict may break out tomorrow, and the danger will be greater. And your supporters came to contact you today. Arrangements will be made for you to enter the city soon."

Chapter 163

"Oh? This is really good news."

Shi Miao looked surprised.

And Alex did not go out today. The purpose of waiting here, apart from waiting for the supplies sent by the Montauk Chamber of Commerce, was also for this matter.

"However, I will arrange for someone to check the route tomorrow to make sure it is not a trap."
