Chapter 290, Alejandro appears
Xiao Ran nodded silently. What the president said is correct. These aircraft are considered to be the strongest aircraft produced by the three countries. The difference between Prototype Machine and Mass-produced Mecha is simply incomparable. Mass production means mass manufacturing, but the most important thing about mass manufacturing is the word batch.
Once mass production is completed, all Prototype Machine will be appropriately modified to better meet the preliminary requirements for mass production, taking into account the production speed, consumption of capital and materials, and today's existing technology. This is just like Strike Gundam Once's Prototype Machine is mass-produced, it will become the same as Dagger. PS Armor was omitted because it was too troublesome to manufacture, and the weapon was modified because of Strike Gundam's high energy consumption, etc.
However, the Three Kingdoms are still the Three Kingdoms, and Earth Federation is the main body in the future. It is true that the strongest MS that the Three Kingdoms can produce, but it does not mean that it is the strongest MS that Earth Federation can produce. Once the technology of the Three Kingdoms is integrated, the body manufactured by Earth Federation will not be this advanced compared to the body manufactured now.
What worries Xiao Ran even more is that with the main performance of Strike Gundam and the addition of GN-T type Solar Furnace, such a machine will definitely become a nightmare for everyone. In terms of performance alone, it may be comparable to the level of Exia Gundam. Of course, this refers to Prototype Machine rather than Mass-produced Mecha.
However, even if Mass-produced Mecha reaches a certain number, judging from the current Piloting Skill of Setsuna and others, and the current level of armament of the Celestial Beings, they will still pose a huge threat to them.
The president patted Xiao Ran on the shoulder and said earnestly, "These airframes will be left to you to handle. You will choose the pilot yourself. In addition, the first batch of Mass-produced Mecha will also be delivered to you. Earth Federation can no longer withstand failure."
"Yes, I understand." Xiao Ran replied in a deep voice, "However, I need detailed information and test data on these machines."
The president nodded slightly and said, "These will be delivered to you together. After all, in addition to the first batch of airframes, if your team needs to be replenished, it must be purchased according to the normal process or wait for distribution. After all, you need to take care of the interests of all parties, so the replenishment of airframes in the future depends on you. Since you already have the right to independent funds, I think these things should not be difficult for you."
Xiao Ran nodded. "I will choose a suitable company to purchase."
"Yes." The president looked at the MSs again. They seemed to be intoxicatingly beautiful in his eyes, and his eyes were full of appreciation. "In addition to these mobile suits, there are also fifteen ships for atmospheric use, five battleships for space use, and construction plans have been issued for five new ships. They will be shared among the three countries and should be delivered to you soon."
"But there is one more thing you have to remember. Although the purpose of A-LAWS is to serve heaven and humanity, as an independent team, you also have the responsibility to ensure the peace and stability of Earth Federation. Don't forget this."
"I will." Xiao Ran replied in a deep voice, turning to look at those machines with eyes full of worry under the mask. "With these machines Earth Federation, the current situation of heavenly beings, Can you really handle it? The next battle will probably be the decisive battle. Aeolia, how prepared are you for what you created? Whether it's victory or defeat, life or death, this time..."
In addition to the delivery of these airframes, three bases of Xiao Ran were also delivered at the same time. One of them is that these airframes are currently placed in UNION, that is, the place where Xiao Ran is now is one of them. The other two are each in the territory of the original AEU and Humanity Federation.
In addition, in the universe, UNION's original Sky Ladder Orbit can also be regarded as the base of A-LAWS in the universe. One force occupies four military bases, and the number of people required is also extremely terrifying. In terms of the number of MS, the number of this team alone has reached 400 in the plan.
Based on the calculation of a maintenance team of twelve people, one or two airframes can be maintained at the same time, and one airframe can be repaired at the same time. Although it does not have to be started at the same time, the maintenance personnel alone may be more than thousands. Adding personnel from different departments, such as logistics, marines, guards, base personnel, ship personnel, etc., the actual number of this team will be more than tens of thousands.
Now that there is a new base, it is naturally inconvenient for the personnel gathered in advance to stay in Japan. A phone call to Colonel Jett made those people transfer to the current base again. After the personnel of this unit are replenished, other arrangements will be made.
However, the two battlefield commanders who have been confirmed so far, Katy Manikin of the original AEU and Sergey Smirnov of the original Humanity Federation, will each be assigned a ship and corresponding manpower. As for the original UNION, due to Graham's departure, there is no suitable battlefield commander for the time being, and they have to wait for the final force to be established before making selections.
On this day when the Three Kingdoms group was Earth Federation, a cocktail party also attracted the attention of people all over the world. As the most popular star today, Sheryl was naturally among those invited to travel, not to mention Xiao Ran.
When Sheryl went on stage to sing, Xiao Ran, who was sitting aside, looked at the girl who was attracting all the attention, with a happy smile on his face. However, when he saw a young man wearing an orange suit, followed by a green-haired boy holding a bouquet of flowers and walking towards Sheryl who was walking down the stage, his brows instantly frowned.
The frown is not because of the bouquet of flowers, but because of the person holding the flowers.
This person is none other than Alejandro, and the person following him is the final BOSS of the second part of Gundam 00, Ribbons.
Xiao Ran stood up and walked directly to Sheryl. When he reached Sheryl, he gently hugged her waist under the stunned eyes of countless people, then smiled at Alejandro, and snatched the bouquet of flowers from his hand before Alejandro could react.
"Thank you for the flowers. They are very beautiful. I believe my fiancée will like them." Xiao Ran held the flowers in one hand and hugged Sheryl's waist with the other. After smiling slightly at Alejandro, he smiled at Sheryl again, "Don't thank anyone else."
Sheryl glanced at Xiao Ran with interest, then bowed slightly to Alejandro: "Thank you, Alejandro. Mr. Koner, the flowers you sent are very nice, and my fiancé seems to like them very much."
Alejandro looked at the sudden appearance of Xiao Ran, a smile appeared on his face and he shrugged his shoulders, "No, although it is not an expensive gift, I am also very happy to be liked by you."
After saying that, he extended his hand towards Xiao Ran: "General Xiao, I have admired your name for a long time. I have long wanted to meet and talk with General Xiao in person."
And Ribbons, who was behind Alejandro, looked at Xiao Ran with surprised eyes, always feeling that this man gave him a completely different feeling from other people.
Xiao Ran smiled slightly, reached out and held Alejandro's hand. "Hello."
Alejandro asked, "Can we find a convenient place to talk?"
"Of course." Xiao Ran nodded, took Sheryl's hand and said, "Please follow me."
After the four people left, whispers began in the venue, discussing Xiao Ran's identity, and they were even more surprised that Xiao Ran was the fiancé of the famous Galaxy Diva Sheryl. This was considered a breaking piece of gossip and news. Many people from the news organization had their eyes bright, and they hurried out, touching their phones directly outside the meeting room.
Maybe tomorrow morning, news will appear all over the world that Galaxy Diva Sheryl Queen's fiancé is Earth Federation a senior military officer and so on.
After walking into an unused reception room with Alejandro and Ribbons, Sheryl and Xiao Ran just sat down when Alejandro said with a smile on his face, "Should I call you Alex, or should I call you General Xiao."
Xiao Ran didn't feel any surprise at all that Alejandro knew his identity. Maybe Xiao Ran could become the general of UNION. Alejandro also used a lot of Guts. He also joined the Celestial Being at that time, but countless observers watched the fact that he was tested. His identity was no secret to Alejandro.
"It's better to call a place like this the correct name." Xiao Ran smiled slightly, spread his hands and said, "If my identity is leaked, I'm sure I can leave with Sheryl, but it might be difficult for you."
"Haha." Alejandro chuckled, nodded and said, "General Xiao said that there are some things I don't know how to say."
Xiao Ran said, "If you are careful, as long as you are not heard by others, it should be okay."
"Then I'll tell you straight." Alejandro nodded, and his expression became serious. "Although as an observer, I have no right to give instructions or blame for any actions of Heavenly Beings, but I also know General Xiao's current identity. Don't you think that your current identity will have a great impact on Heavenly Beings' next actions?"
"Obviously, he is a heavenly pilot, but he is indeed the supreme commander of Earth Federation's most powerful A-LAWS force. Do you think it's appropriate to command his troops to attack him?"
Xiao Ran narrowed his eyes, groaned, and said, "It is indeed a little inconvenient, but things have developed to this point, and since I serve as the commander of this team, of course I can also bring more information and aspects to the gods. In comparison, I think the advantages outweigh the disadvantages."
