A journey through the Gundam world

On the streets, people were also guided and rushed towards the shelter in panic.
On this day, April 71, CE4, the Fifth and Sixth Fleets of the United Army launched an attack on the PLANT mainland.
In order to prevent the recurrence of the bloody Valentine's Day incident, the Supreme Council issued an evacuation order to the entire territory.
Subsequently, the coalition fleet launched a fierce battle with the ZAFT fleet that came to intercept near the Yakin Duwei resource satellite under the jurisdiction of PLANT.
In the end, the ZAFT Army defeated the Union Army's Fifth and Sixth Fleets.
This battle later became known as the First Battle of Yakin-Duwe.
This is also the closest the coalition fleet has come to PLANT's homeland since the Bloody Valentine's Day battle.
Fortunately, the Union forces were unable to use nuclear weapons to attack the colonial satellites because of the neutron jammers.
However, in view of the danger of this attack, the Supreme Council passed a resolution and decided to transform Yakin Duwe into a military fortress as the last line of defense to defend the homeland.
At the same time, the ZAFT Army was not content to just defend. On May 5, in order to prevent the coalition forces from continuing to use the Ptolemaic base on the moon to launch an attack on the PLANT mainland.
The ZAFT Army launched a lunar assault and built its own base in Lorenz Crater.
The two sides used the Grimaldi Crater as the dividing line and launched a fierce battle on the moon.
This front became known as the Grimaldi Front.
Although ZAFT failed to achieve its goal of quickly occupying or destroying the Ptolemaic base, it also succeeded in preventing the coalition fleet from easily attacking the PLANT mainland.
On May 5, the ZAFT Kapantalia base on Earth was completed, and at the same time, the ZAFT Army's intra-atmospheric mobile suit Dean began to be put into use.
This mobile suit with three pairs of variable wings was developed by the ZAFT Army in order to expand the mobility range of the MS and ensure air superiority.
Numbered AMF-101 Dean.
Three pairs of large expandable wings are installed on the back of the aircraft, and the wings can be adjusted according to the flight speed.
In order to reduce flight resistance, the components on the back can be combined with the head during flight.
In addition, defense was sacrificed to reduce body weight.
In this way, Dean became the first mobile suit in the ZAFT army that could soar in the atmosphere without relying on the 'GPU' auxiliary flight system.
On May 5, two days after the official completion of the Carpantaria base, ZAFT ground forces crossed the Indian Ocean, landed in Africa, and launched an attack on the Mediterranean.
In addition to the ZAFT forces that landed in Djibouti, the first batch of modular submarine carriers built locally from PLANT were assembled in Carpantaria.
Secretly prepared for use, they also rounded the Cape of Good Hope in Africa. On May 5, in the waters of Casablanca, they had a fierce battle with the Eurasian Federation Mediterranean Fleet that came to intercept.
With the help of the underwater mobile suit that was put into combat for the first time, the UMF-4A Gurn caught the coalition fleet by surprise.
The ZAFT army defeated the Union Mediterranean Fleet and achieved victory, and took the opportunity to invade the Mediterranean.
At the same time, the ground troops landing from the direction of Casablanca also launched an attack from north to south.
And using the same model as the Capandalia base, the Gibraltar base was quickly established in North Africa.
For a time, ZAFT's actions on Earth were making rapid progress.
Immediately afterwards on May 5, the two sides broke out in the Suez Canal offensive and defensive battle.
A fierce battle broke out between the Earth Alliance's Eurasian Federation heavy tank troops and ZAFT ground troops near Alamein.
Although at the beginning, the coalition forces were defeated by ZAFT due to their numerical superiority.
However, under Andrew Balferut's ingenious plan, the ZAFT army formed a frontal defense line with Jinn and the tracked variable MS, TFA-2 ZAUT, to divert the attention of the Eurasian Federation armored forces.
Then use a raid force composed of the highly mobile quadruped MS TMF/A-802 Baku to launch a surprise attack on the enemy's flank after dark.
During the day, the exhausted Eurasian Federation armored forces were defeated after being unable to attack the ZAFT defense line for a long time.
Not only that, when the remnants of the coalition forces retreated, they were surprised to find that their way back had been cut off.
The ZAFT Army emerging from the direction of Casablanca and the ZAFT Army from the direction of Alamein surrounded the remaining coalition forces in Tunisia.
In the end, except for a few troops who were transferred back to Italy by the Mediterranean Fleet, they and their troops were all annihilated.
At this point, ZAFT had completely wiped out the coalition forces that invaded the African Community and began to advance southward. The situation on the African front was developing in a direction favorable to ZAFT.
News of the victory continues to spread, which continues to encourage the emotions of the people in PLANT.
At the same time, with the putting into use of Yakin Duwei Fortress, local security has also been guaranteed.
Therefore, when Alex walked on the street again, he could feel that the previous panic and worry were almost gone in people's hearts.
Instead, there is a kind of confidence and fanaticism, but in his opinion, this fanaticism will also lead to the continuation of the war.
He also heard from Aslan and others that the peace negotiations advocated by Sigel's friend, Marchio, a blind natural man, had been repeatedly rejected by both parties.
However, this person settled in Orb and had considerable influence on both the Earth United and PLANT.
Silently incorporating this big shot who lived in Orb into his friendship plan, Alex continued to focus on his mission.
At this time, he had already used his good relationship with ZAFT's operators to successfully steal Jin En's aircraft design blueprints.
However, he was not satisfied with this achievement, after all, it was a weapon.
MS requires more than just design drawings, maintenance manuals, user manuals, and even usage and operation records. These are all extremely valuable materials.
Alex is like Santa Claus Thunder Leopard with white beard and red hat at this time.

Chapter 14 The encounter with the fateful enemy
On June 70, CE6, a fierce battle broke out between the United Earth Army and ZAFT in the Endymion Crater on the moon.
This is an important resource-producing area for the Earth Alliance on the moon. The ZAFT Army has judged that as long as it captures or destroys the mine, it will cause logistics problems for the Alliance Army, thus achieving the goal of defeating the enemy without a fight.
Stationed here is the United Army's Third Fleet, which was severely damaged by ZAFT at the beginning of the war.
Although the replenished Third Fleet has restored its organization and combat power, it is still retreating steadily under the ZAFT army's offensive.
Although the Seventh Fleet as reinforcements had already set off from the Ptolemaic Base, it was too late.
In the end, the desperate commander of the Third Fleet ordered the activation of the Cyclops system in the Endhemion Crater.
Originally, this system was used to melt ice mixed with rare metals in the crater.
The main working principle is to evaporate water through microwave heating.
But now, this system has become the last weapon of the coalition forces.
After the commander of the Third Fleet ordered the Cyclops system to be overloaded, the huge microwave array severely damaged the attacking ZAFT army.
However, the entire Third Fleet was almost wiped out. Only a few people were lucky enough to escape because they were on the edge of the battlefield.
Among them are the fateful enemies who are fighting, Mu La Vlada and Law Lu Cruze.
Afterwards, the top management of both sides tacitly concealed this mutually beneficial battle.
ZAFT continued to promote Cruze, who performed well, and Patrick placed the Nazca-class battleship, the Vesalis, under his command.
He was given a white-coated position and appointed to form his own unit, making Cruze a special elite unit directly under the National Defense Committee.
The United Federation will promote Mu, who shot down 2 Jinns while piloting the M/A, TS-NA00mod.5 Mobius Zero, as a combat hero.
And called it 'Eagle of Endemion'.
This deliberately downplayed the fact that the Third Fleet was completely destroyed and the Endemion Mine was completely destroyed.
Although ZAFT finally achieved its strategic goal in this battle, the lunar garrison suffered heavy losses and had to abandon the lunar front.
Although ZAFT retreated on its own initiative, the Combined Space Fleet, which had lost its Third Fleet and important resource base, was therefore ordered to act with the main purpose of preserving its vitality in the coming time.
Therefore, ZAFT has actually gained control and strategic initiative between the Earth and Moon systems.
Immediately on June 6, ZAFT launched an attack on Nova, a resource satellite belonging to the East Asia Federation located in the L14 space.
In the next month, the two sides broke out in fierce conflicts of various sizes in the L4 space domain, and caused serious damage to the colonial satellite group located in L4.
Finally, on July 7, after nearly a month of fierce fighting, the East Asia Federation decided to abandon the Nova and voluntarily retreated from the L12 space.
The ZAFT army won and dragged the satellite to L5 and transformed it into a military satellite to guard the forefront of PLANT's homeland.
The original name of 'New Star' was also replaced by 'Boaz'.
After the Nova offensive and defensive battle, large-scale military operations by both sides basically stopped.
The fundamental reason is that both sides are severely weakened at this time and need to be replenished.
Although the Earth Alliance had a military advantage, it suffered huge losses under the fierce offensive of the Adjusters.
The 1st, 2,5,6nd, 3th, and [-]th Space Fleets suffered heavy losses and have not yet been reorganized. The [-]rd Space Fleet was completely destroyed, but the important resource production areas were destroyed, so the reconstruction speed is slow.
On the ground, ZAFT's army also won consecutive battles, and the coalition forces retreated steadily.
The second Victoria Offensive and Defense War ended, and ZAFT successfully occupied the Victoria Spaceport.
In addition to its control of Gibraltar and the Suez Canal, all of Africa has now become ZAFT's sphere of influence.
The Mediterranean Sea has also changed from the inner lake of the Eurasian union to the forefront of the war between the two sides.
However, continuous fighting has also caused ZAFT, which was originally inferior in scale and numbers to the coalition forces, to reach the limit of expansion.
After several large-scale battles, the ZAFT army suffered considerable losses.
At this time, there are still two months before ZAFT recruits who have been recruited since Bloody Valentine's Day will complete their training.
Therefore, whether on the earth or in the universe, the two sides will mainly engage in small-scale conflicts in the next period of time, and the battle situation will fall into a stalemate.
Taking this opportunity, both sides began to accumulate strength and actively prepare for a new round of large-scale fighting.
The idea that the Earth United Army would win quickly was shattered by ZAFT.
It also proves that MS can play an important role in war.
Therefore, with the efforts of the Admiral of the Eighth Fleet of the Alliance Space Fleet, Commodore Halbarton and other senior officers who supported the development of mobile suits.
Plan G, which was originally proposed in CE69 but was rejected, has been put on the table again.
This time, the Atlantic Federation, which was embarrassed by MS, passed the plan.
He also reached a secret deal with the neutral Orb, and the Dawn Society and the Atlantic Federation cooperated to develop the G plan and the carrying ship.
And conduct secret development operations in Heliopolis of L3.
Mina and Gina, two siblings from the Sahak family who learned of this, had now become the leaders of Orb's "Heresy Project".
In addition to ordering Dawn Society to take advantage of the opportunity of cooperation to steal the Atlantic Federation's MS development data.
Gena also urged Alex to complete his mission.
In this case, Alex decided to move faster.
Just when he was about to take the plunge, a suitable opportunity presented itself.
After the war situation turned into a stalemate, ZAFT soldiers fighting on the front line began to be able to be rotated and repaired, so that they had the opportunity to return to their homeland.
Tissenbel City, the main base of the ZAFT Army, has also welcomed a wave of soldiers on leave.
In order to allow these soldiers who have fought hard on the battlefield to relax.
Lux specially came here again to carry out condolences.
With the arrival of Lux, these soldiers suddenly became enthusiastic.
Because this time it was a labor performance against the ZAFT Army, it was held inside the ZAFT Army base.
This is undoubtedly a God-given opportunity for Alex!
With Lux's appeal, the busiest place with the most people in the base that day was definitely around the stage set up on the practice field.
In order to prevent the recurrence of the previous attack on Lux himself, the ZAFT base is in a state of tightness on the outside and looseness on the inside.
All persons and vehicles entering the base will be strictly inspected before being released.
But inside places like the Gnaku and the Armory, there will basically be no one there.
This provided sufficient convenience for Alex's espionage operations.
The action date and action plan have been decided, and backup plans have also been made.
Alex quietly waited for the day of Lux's condolences concert to approach day by day.
Of course, except for him, everyone else, especially the recruits, were very excited after hearing the news.
Even if the training failed to meet the standards and was punished by Alex for running laps, these new recruits were squealing as if they had been given gunpowder.
