Archangel's successful return, and the Atlantic Federation military-industrial complex operating at full capacity to produce a new generation of battleships and mobile suits, made all other Earth Federation franchise countries go crazy.
Politicians and interest groups would make more than a dozen calls to Murta Azrael every day, trying to get him to fulfill the agreement he signed.
Unfortunately, these requests were rejected without exception.
The reason is simple!
Why share it with others when you can eat it alone?
Wouldn't it be nice to enjoy the huge profits brought by technological monopoly?
What's more, Murta Azrael also found a perfect excuse for himself, that is, the current Manipulation type system suitable for Naturals is not perfect yet and needs some time to adjust and test.
In this way, a group of countries with different agendas gave full play to their bureaucratic style and met, argued and argued all day long at the headquarters of the Earth Alliance.
There are also some who can't help but try to send spies to contact Allen directly, hoping to obtain some key technologies from him, or offer sky-high prices to poach people away.
To this end, all means such as wine, sex, wealth and so on are used at once.
Every day, text messages alone are bombarded with photos of beauties and date invitations.
In addition, there were checks and contact numbers that appeared inexplicably at the door of the room.
In short, if someone hadn't been monitoring them 24 hours a day, some countries and forces would have chosen to take the risk and kidnap them directly.
Facts have once again proven that freedom, human rights, and science without borders are all lies.
As long as there are enough interests, capital can trample all laws and morals in the world.
Of course, Allen was not in a hurry to express his position on these small games within human society, but was enjoying the wonderful performances of all parties.
However, this feeling of watching a good show soon ended with the arrival of Nataru·Bucky Lululu.
This Archangel combat commander took off his usual military uniform and wore a black short skirt, with the same black stockings on his lower body High Heels. He suddenly became less stern and more charming.
She had a strong smell of alcohol all over her body. She had obviously drunk a lot, and her eyes became a little blurry.
"Good evening." Allen took the initiative to say hello.
But Nataru·Bucky Lululu shook his head slightly and responded, "No, I'm not well at all now."
After saying this, she pushed Allen away and walked straight into the room.
With the sound of the door automatically closing, only a man and a woman were left in the house.
After a brief silence, Allen was the first to ask, "Interesting! If you don't mind, can you tell me what method Murtagh Azrael used to force you to come to my room dressed like this in the middle of the night?"
"Damn! Sure enough, you did a good thing! Why? Why did you do this?"
Nataru·Bucky Lululu, who was drunk one second, turned into a ferocious female leopard the next second, with two eyes shining with anger.
She didn't believe that Allen did this because he coveted her beauty or body.
"It's very simple! In order for you to understand the truth about Atlantic Federation, Earth Alliance and this world, and also to understand how bad the situation has become." After that, Allen picked up the cup and poured a glass of water over it.
"The truth? The situation? What are you talking about? Why can't I understand a word?"
Nataru·Bucky Lululu took the glass of water, raised his head and took a sip, and poured the rest on his face, forcing himself to wake up from the dizzy state.
"Don't you notice? The world has long been out of control! Atlantic Federation's government has been infiltrated into a sieve by capital groups. Almost all politicians are serving the capital that supports them and don't care about the lives of the people. The military has long been separated from the government's control and has formed a close Alliance with the military-industrial complex. In order to win this war and seize world hegemony, Murta Azrael needs the support of advanced military technology, and I can meet his needs."
Allen calmly stated all the conclusions he had drawn from his observations.
There is no doubt that the real world is much more complicated than the content highlighted in the anime, as well as the emotions and experiences of the protagonists and supporting characters.
Especially after World War III, countless small countries gave up their national sovereignty for various reasons, either voluntarily or forced, and joined federations headed by big countries.
Only in this way can they ensure that their citizens will not be completely eliminated in an increasingly competitive environment.
For example, Atlantic Federation, East Asian Federation, Eurasian Federation, etc. basically come from this.
The problem is that although these large federal countries are nominally subordinate to one government, the affiliated countries still retain certain political rights.
Coupled with ethnic, religious, economic, geographical, historical and other factors, the internal conflicts are simply not ordinary.
The most typical one is Eurasian Federation, which has the largest land area. It has suffered successive misfortunes, causing many countries to want to regain their independence.
In order to suppress this independent tendency, all major federations are trying to find something that can create cohesion.
In Atlantic Federation, this kind of thing is called capital;
In East Asian Federation, this kind of thing is called culture;
In African Community, this thing is called race;
In Eurasian Federation, this kind of thing is called...
Oh, sorry, as a hodgepodge, Eurasian Federation has no such thing as cohesion.
In short, those in power are doing almost everything they can to mend the rifts within themselves.
Perhaps under normal circumstances, after two or three hundred years, with the rise of the new generation, they will eventually merge into one country.
But the problem is that the emergence of Coordinators and the tragic war that followed changed everything.
Due to the disastrous defeats in several previous important battles, the central governments of many large federations have lost their prestige, and their armies have almost been completely replaced.
This directly caused the generals who were accustomed to obeying the government's orders to be replaced by a group of "young people" who were influenced by Blue Cosmos's thoughts and were filled with hatred and desire for revenge.
These people were only thinking about how to win the war and scorned the government that had led to previous defeats.
In addition, Atlantic Federation has a very strong history of rich people intervening in politics and trading money and power, so capital quickly merged with the military-industrial complex and the army to form a terrifying behemoth.
At this point, even if someone in the federal government wants to cease war with P. L. A. N. T., they will not allow it.
And this behemoth is still taking advantage of the destruction caused by the war to continue to expand.
"What? Are you kidding me?"
Nataru·Bucky Lululu's pupils suddenly dilated, and his whole person shivered uncontrollably.
You can't blame her for reacting violently, but the news was too shocking.
Atlantic Federation Government lost control of the army?
Is the military actually controlled by capital and the military-industrial complex?
No matter which one of these news is announced, it will instantly cause an uproar.
Allen shook his head seriously. "No! I never joke about serious things. Think about it carefully, why did you come to my room wearing such clothes? Isn't it because I said that I wanted to get Nataru·Bucky Lululu? This is true for a war hero with military exploits like you, let alone an ordinary soldier. Don't forget, in the eyes of capital, people are just a commodity and a renewable resource."
"Damn it!" Nataru·Bucky Lululu, realizing the seriousness of the problem, raised his arms and knocked on the table hard, then took a deep breath and continued to ask, "Why me?"
"Because if it were captain Murrue, I think Mu would definitely go crazy. You are the female officer second only to the captain on Archangel, and you don't have a boyfriend yet, so you are naturally the most suitable test subject. Is this a sufficient reason? Now you should tell me what methods they used on you."
After saying that, Allen showed strong curiosity on his face.
As far as he knew, the heroic woman in front of him usually wore trousers in addition to military uniforms. She had never worn a skirt, and it was such a sexy skirt.
"Those bastards threatened to strip me of my rank if I didn't do what they said. Not only that, but they would also start a review process and repeatedly interrogate everyone on Archangel. I don't care about my rank, but I can't tolerate implicating other innocent people, causing them to be deprived of the honor they should enjoy." Nataru·Bucky Lululu gave the answer crisply.
This is why she went to get drunk in the middle of the night and drank until she was drunk.
You must know that she comes from a military family.
After learning that the top military officials were like this, it was as uncomfortable and sad as if the letter had collapsed.
Nataru·Bucky Lululu has always felt that the duty of a soldier should be to obey orders, protect the home and country, and stay away from politics.
But now it has become a playground for capital and power.
"Oh? Taking advantage of human weakness to threaten and intimidate? This is more like Murtagh Azrael's style." Allen touched his chin and commented with a half-smile.
"Alas -" Nataru·Bucky Lululu sighed helplessly. "Now that you know the truth, what are you going to do next?"
"Me? I'm ready to rebel."
Allen spread his hands with a relaxed expression, as if he was not talking about defecting, but an outing in the wild.
Nataru·Bucky Lululu was stunned for a moment and asked in an unbelievable tone, "What? Rebellion? Go to the ZAFT Army? Are you crazy? You have killed so many Coordinators pilots and soldiers, they will not let you go."
"Who told you that there are only two camps in the world, ZAFT Army and Earth Alliance? Isn't there a neutral country Orb that has not participated in the war?" Allen asked meaningfully.
moment!
The room became deathly silent.
After several minutes, Nataru·Bucky Lululu finally closed his mouth that had been open for a long time, holding his forehead and complaining. "Are you sure your current mental state is normal? You are not sick? I mean both physically and mentally."
Allen replied nonchalantly, "Of course! I have always been healthy, both physically and mentally. Maybe in your opinion, Orb is a small country that is both small and lacks strategic depth. It has relatively advanced military technology, but after all it cannot be compared with the Earth Alliance and ZAFT Army. But the question is, what if you include me?"
"I know you are strong, but you are still one person no matter what. Ah, I almost forgot, including Teresa, there are two. With just the two of you, plus Orb's national defense strength, it is simply impossible to participate in the war and win. Give up, otherwise you will both die." Nataru·Bucky Lululu kindly persuaded.
"No, you are wrong. In other words, you have never known how powerful I really am. And don't you think it is fun, interesting, and challenging to lead a small country like Orb to win the war?"
After saying this, Allen took the initiative to extend his right hand and issued an invitation. "I believe you have seen that whether it is Atlantic Federation or this so-called Earth Alliance, they have all been controlled by Decay's old capital power. I admit that capitalism has indeed created something. It has brought unprecedented prosperity and promoted the progress and development of Science and Technology, but it has also left a devastated world. In other words, capital has changed from the initial solution to the problem to a cancer that is more difficult to solve than all the problems faced by human civilization before. Now you have an opportunity to join us and fundamentally change human society."
"Change? How to change? Rely on Orb's ridiculous principle of neutrality and those stupid and short-sighted political families within them?"
Nataru·Bucky Lululu obviously has no favorable impression of Orb.
In fact, what she said was indeed correct.
Orb In principle, it is ruled by an administrative body composed of five nobles on the island.
In other words, according to political composition, they are all remnants of feudalism.
Moreover, every family controls important domestic economic pillar industries, and there is no essential difference from capital interest groups like Atlantic Federation.
Allen laughed and shook his head, "Hahahaha! Don't worry, some interesting changes will happen to Orb soon. At that time, whether it is Uzummi Yula Asha or the other four families, they will disappear from the world forever. A young woman who has no blood connection with the previous nobles will step onto the stage and start a new era."
"Could this young woman you are talking about be Cagalli? She is the daughter of Uzummi·Yula Asha." Nataru·Bucky Lululu suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Not your biological child, but your adopted daughter. This involves a deeply hidden secret. Well, let's end the conversation tonight. As for whether to accept my invitation, you can go back and think about it slowly. In addition, don't forget to tear your socks when you go out. It is best to create the illusion that we have done some physical and mental health exercises in the house."
After saying that, Allen followed Teuchi to open the closed door and made a gesture of invitation.
"Tch! I know it without you reminding me."
Nataru·Bucky Lululu made several cuts in the black stockings on her legs, and at the same time deliberately made the skirt full of wrinkles.
After all this was done, she pretended to be exhausted, staggered and walked out holding on to the wall.
