Chapter 315 Convocation
"Only in this way can we ensure that Orb is intact." Representative Asaha laughed as he looked at Xiao Ran and said, "It seems that you have experienced a lot in the month you left, but in this way I think I can safely leave the future of Cagalli and Orb in your hands."
"Huh..." Xiao Ran exhaled and nodded slightly with his eyes closed. "I know, I will assist Cagalli to let Orb be reborn in the flames of war."
Representative Asaha nodded slowly, suddenly stood up and looked at Xiao Ran seriously. "Brigadier General Xiao Ran!"
"Yes." Xiao Ran also stood up and stood upright.
"I now order that Kusanagi be officially merged into Third Fleet, and preparations immediately begin to prepare for all personnel to evacuate the country and fly to the universe once the war starts tomorrow!"
"Yes!" Xiao Ran raised his right hand with a swish. Mu, Mwu, and Bargyll also stood up, looking deeply at the man in front of them who led Orb into prosperity, but also accompanied Orb to destruction.
Asaha walked up to Xiao Ran and patted his shoulder gently. "Xiao Ran, Orb's fire will be left to you. Try to bring all the power you can to end this war!"
"I will." Xiao Ran nodded.
"Go." Representative Asaha suddenly smiled and said calmly, "We old guys also need to make some preparations, but even if we have such preparations, at least in the end, we can see the combat capabilities of Orb MS with our own eyes."
Xiao Ran clenched his fists. "At least tomorrow, Earth Force will never step into the defense line."
Coming out of the Asaha mansion, Xiao Ran looked up at the sky and sighed helplessly. He did not expect that he had made all kinds of preparations at that time, but now Orb would still be attacked by the flames of war. Asaha, the man who had given him all his trust since he came to Orb, would also die calmly like in the original plot.
In order to prevent Earth Force from achieving its own goal and obtain the acceleration orbit, and to prevent Akatsuki Works from being obtained, and also to prevent Orb from being reborn under the corrosion of the Sahaq Family, is such a sacrifice really worth it?
Mwu walked to Xiao Ran, looked at the helpless Xiao Ran and asked softly, "Xiao Ran...Asaha represents him... really... do you want to do this?"
"Representative Asaha is a responsible person. Once he makes up his mind, we cannot change it." Xiao Ran took Mwu's hand and said, "All we can do is fulfill his last wish."
"Yeah." Mwu nodded slightly.
Xiao Ran asked, "Where is Archangel? And Third Fleet's battleship?"
"They are all in Akatsuki Works, but currently, apart from Archangel and Kusanagi, only one battleship has been delivered."
Xiao Ran shook his head. "Return to Akatsuki Works, Bargyll, you contact Dearka, Nicol, Kira, and Director Simmons are gathering at Akatsuki Works, and give me the current situation of Third Fleet, as well as the current situation of the Earth Force fleet."
"Okay." Bargyll nodded and walked directly to the car parked in front. Mu glanced at Xiao Ran and Mwu, and quickly got into Bargyll's car.
When Bargyll started the car and left, Xiao Ran and Mwu had just gotten into the car. Mu looked at the car behind him from the rearview mirror and said to Bargyll, "Don't you think Xiao Ran seems to have changed a lot this time? He feels completely different, and he has become too strong."
"I found it." Bargyll replied without saying a word: "But this way he will be more like a qualified commander."
Mu raised his eyebrows, shook his head and smiled, "Haha, that's right."
Xiao Ran drove away from the Asaha mansion and returned to Akatsuki Works. He was led directly into a warehouse by a tractor vehicle. As soon as he got off the car, he walked directly into an elevator to the underground warehouse. As soon as he came out of the elevator, he saw Graham and Na The two of them followed Sheryl and wandered around the huge Gnaku, curiously looking at Buster Gundam and Rage Gundam that had been improved since arriving at Akatsuki Works, as well as the more M1 Astray.
At this time, the underground Gnakuli was brightly lit, and countless Akatsuki Works Technicians were making final preparations for all these MSs. There were people everywhere, and there were noisy sounds everywhere.
Xiao Ran walked in front, and Mwu walked behind. The two of them didn't get close to Sheryl until Graham and Naluo turned their heads. When they saw it was Xiao Ran, they nodded to Xiao Ran: "Sir."
Sheryl turned his head when he heard the voices of the two people. When he saw it was Xiao Ran, he waved to Xiao Ran with a smile, "We're done."
"No, I'm just busy now." Xiao Ran walked up to Sheryl, gently smoothed Sheryl's hair, and said, "If you're tired, I'll have someone take you and Naluo to a place to rest."
"It doesn't matter, I'm not an ordinary person now, and it doesn't take long for us to wake up." Sheryl smiled and shook his head. He also smiled at Mwu, who was standing about a few meters away, and said, "Since you are busy, I will just take a look here."
"It doesn't matter. I have some things to arrange later and I need to attend a meeting. You can come with me." Xiao Ran smiled slightly and looked at Graham: "What do you think of these machines?"
"It's very powerful. It's completely different from the flag type. Except that it doesn't have the Solar Furnace, it feels almost the same as the GN-X." Graham nodded and said, "It should be the mass-produced body of the Black Astray, and it also popularizes beam weapons."
"But after all, it is a mass-produced type, and the level is still not enough." Xiao Ran shook his head slightly.
After walking around in Gnakuli, Xiao Ran received a notice from Bargyll that everyone had arrived. Akatsuki Works took Sheryl, Graham, Naluo and with him. Mwu went to a conference room among Akatsuki Works, where Xiao Ran saw Kira, Nicol and Dearka whom he had not seen for a long time.
When Kira saw Xiao Ran, a look of surprise suddenly appeared in his eyes. He quickly stood up and walked towards Xiao Ran: "Teacher, you are finally back!"
"Kira." I haven't seen Kira for a long time. Now I am very happy to see Xiao Ran. I hugged Kira gently, patted Kira on the shoulder and said with a smile, "It's been a long time since I last saw you. You have become a lot more mature."
Dearka stood up, slapped the table hard and said dissatisfiedly, "Hey, Masked Man, you left us here and ran out alone to be cool, isn't it too much?"
Nicol was still so polite. He stood up and smiled slightly, "Hello Mr. Xiao Ran."
Xiao Ran nodded to Nicol, looked at Dearka and smiled, "I'm afraid you won't go back if I really want to take you with me."
"Hmph." Dearka hummed twice, but did not refute Xiao Ran's words. He was very busy during this period. As for what he was busy with, he was just staying with someone.
"Okay, okay, everyone, sit down." Xiao Ran raised his hand and motioned for everyone to sit down. Seeing that Xiao Ran really had something to arrange, everyone shut their mouths and found their own seats to do it.
After receiving Third Fleet's information and Earth Force's fleet information from Bargyll, Xiao Ran sat down directly, opened it, and looked at it. The content in the information also shook his head slightly. "Earth Force has two strengthened fleets, and Third Fleet delivered only twenty MSs. This number is really a bit of a headache."
"Okay." Xiao Ran put down the information in his hand, glanced at the people sitting in the conference room and said, "Everyone is very aware of the current situation. With Orb's current national strength, it may be very difficult to survive this battle safely. Difficult, just to protect the people's safe evacuation requires consuming most of the troops. Although the army is the main force, MS Unit will also play a supporting role, so I think everyone here knows how many MS Orb can bring out in tomorrow's battle."
Everyone present is very familiar with the situation of Orb. Naturally, they also know what the two strengthened fleets of Earth Force represent. It is certain that tomorrow's battle will be extremely difficult.
"I learned from the representative of Asaha that the evacuation of ordinary people will begin before dawn tomorrow. Everyone present is considered to be the most elite pilot of Orb at present, so the pressure you have to bear will also be the greatest, except for In addition to dealing with the possible Gundam series Prototype Machine in Earth Force, we also need to ensure the stability of the Orb defense line. If necessary, we must even help people evacuate and protect the ships used for people to evacuate."
"It may be very painful and dangerous, but my request is that tomorrow until Earth Force retreats, the first line of defense must be stable and buy more time for the people in the rear to evacuate."
Kira nodded heavily, Dearka and Nicol looked at each other and nodded lightly. As for Graham and Naluo, needless to say, since Xiao Ran arranged it this way, they would do it.
Xiao Ran groaned and sighed, "It only takes one day. One day is enough. One day is enough for the people to evacuate safely, and it is also enough for Representative Asaha to make final preparations."
Kira nodded and looked at Xiao Ran firmly. "Teacher, I will do my best."
"So are we." Dearka and Nicol also said.
Xiao Ran nodded slightly, then looked at Director Simmons, who had been sitting silently as if he had no sense of existence, and said, "Director Simmons, at this time, I believe you should have made a decision in your heart, what are you going to do, and which side are you going to stand on?"
Simmons was stunned for a moment, then shook his head helplessly and smiled, "I didn't expect you to know about this. Yes, I have made up my mind."
"Then in this last moment, gather a group of Akatsuki Works outstanding Technicians, and prepare the equipment you think can be used. These will become the power to rebuild Orb. Dismantle it overnight, plus one day tomorrow, it will be enough to transport Orb on the ship."
