A journey through the Gundam world

Chisaka is not a pedantic person. In his view, this level of espionage is acceptable, and it is very beneficial to Orb.

So he relaxed his body and nodded.

"Very well, if there is anything you need my help with, please let me know."

"I will if necessary. Thank you very much, Colonel Chisaka."

In this way, the two reached a secret deal tacitly.

Alex, who had just arrived at PLANT, naturally couldn't take action right away. An action that didn't even take a step would only lead to a big failure.

Moreover, these instructors from Orb were not allowed to approach MS Gnaku.

But Alex is not in a hurry. The training for new recruits will last at least half a year.

Therefore, he has enough time to carry out his mission.

On February 2, the day they officially started training new recruits, a fierce battle broke out between the United Earth Army and ZAFT at the Yggdrasil Fortress located in L22.

The Union Army invested the 1-3 fleets, and the ZAFT Army also invested a large number of troops. This was the first time that ZAFT took the initiative to attack the Union Army.

Therefore, this offensive and defensive battle quickly became a hot topic for discussion among the recruits.

During the leisure time of training, these teenagers gathered together in small groups to discuss who would be the final winner of this offensive and defensive battle.

The offensive and defensive battle of World Tree lasted for a long time. In the end, the World Tree Fortress collapsed in the flames of war and turned into an unusable wreckage zone.

Although the United claimed to have defeated ZAFT's offensive spearhead, the 1-3 fleet also suffered heavy losses as a result.

Lou Cruze alone piloted the Jinn and shot down 37 M/A and 6 battleships, and thus won the Nebula Medal.

Although the World Tree Fortress was destroyed, the Union Army lost an important offensive bridgehead.However, ZAFT troops did suffer serious losses.

Using this battle, PLANT also verified the effectiveness of the neutron jammer and prepared for the subsequent large-scale use of this equipment.

On the training ground, after these few days of getting along, Alex and other natural instructors have proven their abilities with facts.

It also allowed these adjuster recruits to accept the fact that they were trained by natural persons.

Captain Yuuki has not received any complaints requesting the replacement of natural person instructors.

Although some people, including Yitzhak, were still dissatisfied, other young adjusters, including Aslan and Nigel, were able to communicate normally with him in their free time.

Even recruits such as Yitzhak who have poor sense of natural people have to admit that during the training, Alex did not deliberately make things difficult or hide anything.

The opponent's training can be said to be meticulous and very conscientious, often training them until they lose their strength.

However, Alex has always emphasized that 'sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime. '

And in terms of training content, in addition to other items besides the queue, as an instructor, he always takes the lead and trains with them.

In this case, in order not to be compared by a natural person, Yitzhak and others also gritted their teeth and trained hard.

Basically, after training every day, Yitzhak, who was dragging his tired body, gritted his teeth and expressed that he was going to file a complaint to replace this natural instructor.

Then after eating and bathing, he was so tired that he fell asleep and repeated the above steps the next day.

Alex said that it is better not to show the attribute of tiredness in men...

This morning, along with the wake-up call, the originally quiet dormitories began to stir.

After Alex's training, these recruits already have basic soldier qualities.

After they quickly tidied up the housework, they lined up and headed to the restaurant for breakfast.

Today is also a very exciting day for these teenagers.

Today, they will be exposed to MS for the first time.

Originally, according to normal training procedures, they needed to undergo 1-2 months of basic training before they were qualified to start contacting MS.

However, in view of the urgency of the war, the training course that originally took two years has been compressed to seven months.

And it is different from the later non-commissioned officer schools, which trained recruits according to their own abilities and aptitudes.

At this time, Zaft's training content was more focused on cultivating all-round players, covering command, shooting, special operations, mobile suit operation, maintenance, etc.

These courses are compressed into 7 months, and even adjusters must study hard with all their strength.

However, even if they study so hard, it is exciting for these teenagers to be able to control MS.

Chapter 6 MS in the CE World

After breakfast, everyone lined up at the training ground and prepared to go to the MS training ground.

Alex crossed his arms and shook his head as he looked at the excited little guys.

"Look at how you have never seen the world! Although the next step is the first MS training, you don't have to be so excited, right?"

"Instructor, giant robots are a man's romance!"

"Yes, young man, who doesn't want to drive?"

Since discovering that Alex is actually a very talkative person during non-training periods, these teenagers have basically become very casual.

"Instructor, the military on Earth doesn't teach mobile suit operations, does it?"

At this time, someone suddenly asked boldly.

Before Alex could answer, someone tapped the questioner on the back of the head.

"Idiot! The Earth Army doesn't have mobile suits."

"That's right, the Earth Army doesn't have MSs, so I, the instructor, don't know how to operate MSs."

Naturally, Alex would not reveal the fact that he could control a mobile suit right now. After all, he was a natural person. If he could easily control the mobile suit, it would still be a mobile suit for adjusters.

Then whether it is the Earth Army or Orb, they will all doubt their identity...

After spending this time together, these teenagers were gradually impressed by Alex.

Because whether it is long-distance running, shooting, cross-country with heavy loads, obstacle course, etc., the opponent can do it better than them.

It's as if there is nothing this person can't do in military subjects.

If Aslan hadn't seen Alex's information through connections, proving that he was indeed a natural person, these teenagers would have suspected that this guy was actually an adjuster.

Now that the other party confessed that he did not know how to drive a mobile suit, these teenagers felt as if they had discovered a new world.

"real or fake?"

"It turns out that there are things you don't know how to do, instructor."

Alex nodded.

"Of course, I can't give birth to a child."

His words made the other teenagers at the scene laugh.

"What do you know how to drive, instructor?"

Nicol asked curiously.

"Electric four-wheelers, electric motorcycles, linear gun tanks, fixed-wing fighter jets, Mobius space fighters, helicopters, etc."

He pointed his fingers and named some common vehicles in the Earth Army.

"It's amazing... Even if he can't pilot a mobile suit, he knows too much."

"Could it be that the instructor is the legendary super soldier?"

Listening to the whispers of the teenagers, Alex secretly laughed in his heart.

If they later knew that they could pilot a mobile suit, what would the expressions on their faces be like?

He really hoped that he would not have to encounter these teenagers on the battlefield, but he knew clearly that this was impossible.

While they were having fun, the order was conveyed and everyone began to move towards the MS training ground.

As part of the strategic mutual trust, ZAFT generously allowed these instructors from Orb to observe MS training.

In addition to enhancing the cooperation between the two parties, this is also the reason why natural persons cannot drive the existing MS.

The models used for training are the front-end model of the ZGMF-1017 Jinen and the YMF-01B trial model Jinen.

This is the first MS developed by ZAFT and was finalized around CE65.

Its appearance is not too different from Jin En's, except that there is no domain antenna on its head, so it looks bare.

The wing-shaped thrusters on the back are also smaller than Jin En's, mainly to make it easier for recruits to operate more flexibly and to avoid scratching the antenna and thruster housing.

The prototype Jinn evolved from the space suit used on the Tsiolkovsky, the Jupiter exploration ship that George Glenn was aboard.

Although it is said to be a space suit, the size is no longer suitable for wearing and use, but it already needs to be controlled in the cockpit.

Although it is different from the current MS, it already has extremely high requirements for operators.

Natural people operating this equipment usually move slowly, looking like a dying old man.The adjuster can control it smoothly.

The prototype Jin En, developed based on the space suit, retains the humanoid structure while strengthening the joints. The feet adopt a two-stage structure to ensure balance when moving on uneven ground.

These designs have become the basic functions for the future development of the MS lineage and have been continued.

A miniaturized ultra-compact energy battery is used internally as power, which is the biggest difference between CE and UC MS early power.

Small thrusters are also installed throughout the body to ensure AMBAC maneuvers in a gravity-free state.

The main thruster backpack assembly mounted on the back is mainly responsible for providing propulsion power.

And it uses an electric propulsion system, so unlike the UC series MS, the launch designers need to rack their brains to rationally install built-in fuel tanks, fuel transmission pipes and other equipment in the compact body space.

It only needs to install a small propellant storage tank directly on the thruster, which not only saves a lot of space, but also greatly improves safety compared with traditional chemical fuels.

At the same time, the thruster engine no longer needs to use a huge internal combustion engine, and the combustion chamber, nozzle, cooling and other structures are eliminated, greatly reducing the size of the engine.

This greatly saves the weight and space of the airframe, which not only ensures the endurance of the airframe, but also allows the airframe to carry and install more additional equipment.

In the future, as ZGMF-1017 Jinn officially entered service, the mission of the trial type Jinn also changed.

The machine number was changed to ZGMT-01 training Jin En, which is mainly responsible for providing MS training for new recruits.

Under the awning next to the training ground, these soldiers from Orb felt the visual impact of MS at close range for the first time.

Although I have seen the appearance of the MS from various aspects such as photos and videos, when I saw the 18-meter steel giant up close, I felt the vibration caused by the walking of the machine.

Even though they were all soldiers, there was also a feeling of fear deep in their hearts.

Isn't this even more shocking? Then they witnessed these giants walking, running, and even jumping smoothly in the hands of ZAFT MS instructors!

In the process, he can also use the 76mm live ammunition machine gun in his hand to accurately shoot paint bombs at the target. Even in close situations, he can easily defeat the enemy with his heavy attack on the ship.

These mobile suits with smooth movements made them feel as if what they were seeing in front of them was not an 18-meter-tall steel giant weighing dozens of tons, but just a group of human soldiers wearing power armor with propellers on their backs.

After the instructor completed the demonstration, he began to explain the operation to the recruits.

The adjuster recruits who had watched the instructor's demonstration could no longer pull their eyes out at this moment.

Facing MS, which combines mechanical beauty with the iron blood of war, these young people have no resistance at all.

Just like someone said just now, being able to drive a mobile suit is a kind of romance.

They gathered around the instructor and listened carefully and attentively, for fear of missing a word.

As if to show the close cooperation with Orb, ZAFT did not restrict these instructors from Orb from observing the mobile suit operation training content.

They were even allowed to get close to the mobile suit, but they were not allowed to enter the cockpit.

But even so, these Orb officers felt like they were country bumpkins.

Through several battles between ZAFT and the Earth Alliance, the characteristics of mobile suits with fewer enemies and more enemies indicate that a new military revolution is taking place.

MS will definitely become one of the new battlefield masters in the future. Many of these Orb officers have already planned to focus on the development of MS in their duty reports.

Alex used the eavesdropping device on his body to record all instructor ZAFT's explanations.

Although it is just basic operation content, this information is as important as the performance of the MS.

After all, if you can’t even drive it, what else do you care about performance?

"How about that, Captain Alex."

Chisaka came to his side and asked in a low voice.

"MS is indeed the crystallization of human technology and industrial technology. Unfortunately, today's natural humans cannot control these steel giants."

Alex shook his head regretfully.
