Chapter 776 Lacus
Just when Orb Fleet started to march towards Combined Fleet of the Global Security Alliance, almost everyone in the world noticed the upcoming battle between Orb and the United. No one can tell who will win and who will lose at this moment., on the one hand is the alliance that is now strong and has large-scale forces, on the other hand is Orb who is now weak but has a certain foundation, and more importantly, Orb has Xiao Ran who will feel troubled and afraid of the alliance.
The world is paying more attention to the final outcome of this battle. The victory of Orb will give those countries, forces and regions that are actually unwilling to join Global Security Alliance the courage to resist. If it is a joint victory, then the entire earth will truly become the back garden of the union, which is what most people do not want to see.
Under a sea surface far away from Orb, Archangel is also quietly moored on the seabed, and everyone on Archangel has also learned about the current situation of Orb and the alliance through some intelligence and information. Especially Cagalli, two days after leaving Orb, he found out that Xiao Ran had returned to Orb, took over all the rights of Orb, and then After the Ceran Family and all his gang members were arrested, he angrily called Orb while shouting bastards and wanted to rush back to Orb, asking Xiao Ran why he wanted to arrest Ceran Family's people.
However, Cagalli's impulse was not supported by everyone in Archangel, including Kira, and was forced to stay on Archangel.
Cagalli's approach in Orb is to compromise step by step for the sake of stability, while Xiao Ran's approach is to be stronger step by step for the sake of stability. The two have different concepts, so Cagalli does not It is understandable why Xiao Ran captured all Ceran Family's people as soon as he returned to the country, and emptied almost two-thirds of the entire cabinet. Even some people in the military who were close to the Ceran Family were arrested.
According to Cagalli, Xiao Ran's actions would only bring Orb into chaos and into the abyss. But after a few days, Orb On the contrary, there was no turmoil because of Xiao Ran's actions. On the contrary, everyone became more united, just like a few slaps on Cagalli's face, making her feel both angry and embarrassed.
However, she was equally forceful in asking everyone to go back on Archangel. She also knew that although Xiao Ran's strength stabilized the situation within Orb, it would also be feared by the alliance and send troops to attack. As The former leader of Orb naturally had these visions. As expected, the alliance began to attack Orb, but Orb sent troops to fight back. The attitude of it was either you die or I also made Cagalli extremely worried.
Not only was Cagalli worried, Kira also had countless doubts in his heart, why Xiao Ran didn't show up earlier and later, and had to choose when Cagalli left Orb As for Xiao Ran's actions, Kira will not make any judgment. No matter what Xiao Ran decides to do, Kira will think that Xiao Ran has his own ideas.
And Lacus is wiser than both Kira and Cagalli. She has learned from Mwu, from uncle Maxi in the maintenance class, and from the attitudes of several bridge members of Archangel. From the looks of it, Xiao Ran's return was clearly something they already knew, so Archangel's departure was also something Xiao Ran knew, but Lacus cleverly concealed it and pretended not to know anything.
Lacus, like Kira, also couldn't figure out why Xiao Ran didn't show up to Orb in advance, nor did he stop Archangel, but let them do whatever they wanted. Lacus knew Xiao Ran. He didn't understand why the other party would do this. He also didn't understand why Xiao Ran was sure that Cagalli would leave. But after Cagalli learned about the series of actions and reactions Xiao Ran showed after returning to Orb, Lacus somewhat understood Xiao Ran's idea is that Cagalli is too impulsive and immature. Not only will it not be a help for Xiao Ran's return, but it will become an obstacle to Xiao Ran's return.
So every time I see Cagalli, I feel impulsive and angry and want to run back to Orb. I can only deal with it with a sigh. Lacus saw clearly that since Xiao Ran chose to appear after Cagalli left, he wanted Cagalli to leave. At this time, even if Cagalli returned to Orb, there was a greater possibility that Xiao Ran would still be secretly under house arrest.
Lacus even thought about what might happen if Cagalli really returns to Orb, conflicts with Xiao Ran, releases members of the Ceran Family and a series of henchmen, and then Orb splits, or Xiao Ran just let go and returned Orb to Cagalli. Judging from Cagalli's ability, I am afraid that under the instigation and joint pressure of the Ceran Family, he will regress and join Global Security Alliance.
On the other hand, there will definitely be people among the Orb Army who choose to leave with Xiao Ran. Not only the military, but also Akatsuki Works, civilians, and even those cabinets who are willing to support Xiao Ran will follow them. The final result will be the split of Orb.
Lacus can understand why Xiao Ran chose to come back after Cagalli left, but Xiao Ran's behavior at this time really made Lacus a little confused, Xiao Ran is too strong, so strong that it is not in line with the current national conditions of Orb. When the joint fleet was sent to attack, they did not choose to stay and defend, but took the initiative to fight in an almost provocative manner. Is it because they are too firm in Orb's philosophy? Are you too confident in the current strength of Orb?
And even if Global Security Alliance is forced to join Global Security Alliance, Xiao Ran can completely let Orb join the front line between the United and ZAFT without sending a single soldier. At that time, even if the United wants Orb to send troops and put pressure on it, it can at least buy more time to solve this problem.
In short, Xiao Ran chose to face this point. Lacus also felt that she was too impulsive and anxious. She used fighting to prove that she was firm in her ideals. Lacus supported it, but what she was worried about was whether Orb's current strength could really compete with the alliance. After all, once this battle started, there would be no room for turning, and failure would really mean nothing.
Lacus couldn't guess that Xiao Ran's thoughts were normal. The Xiao Ran she knew was not an impulsive person, but a person who acted after a certain time. Lacus believed that Xiao Ran must have done this for a reason. But they don't know what the reason is. The reason why Xiao Ran so strongly refused to join the World Security Alliance from the beginning, and even challenged the alliance with a declaration of war, was also to pave the way for him to turn Orb into his own Exclusive Territory.
Cagalli's weakness and concessions also caused a lot of resentment within Orb, but Asaha's inheritance has made many people habitually support and obey. Xiao Ran has to do What is important is to completely show the side of himself that is completely different from Cagalli, soft internally and tough externally. He should use this battle to boost the morale of Orb, and use the victory of this battle to gain more support.
Everyone in Orb must see the difference between his administration and Cagalli's administration. Everyone must know the changes he has brought to Orb from the inside out after he came to power. He must bring changes to the people of Orb. Confidence and glory, let all Orb citizens live there without any worries, let them know that their army is invincible, let the army know that only under his leadership can Orb be protected and win again and again.
Therefore, Xiao Ran must win this battle, and it must be a beautiful victory. Only when the victory is without pressure, can Xiao Ran put forward his conditions to the alliance. Some conditions may be difficult for the alliance to accept, but they can once again enhance Orb's status in the world and make all restrictions disappear. Conditions and compensation.
Just when Lacus was guessing Xiao Ran's thoughts and subsequent actions, Kira's usually silent and gentle face showed a hint of helplessness, and he walked into her room.
"Cagalli knows that Orb is about to go to war with the United Nations, and now he is asking Captain Mwu and the others to go back to Orb in the bridge, saying that they will Stop the fleet and don't let the teacher lead Orb into the abyss." Kira shook his head and sighed, "No matter how hard we try, there is nothing we can do."
Lacus smiled slightly, shook his head at Kira and stood up. "If Cagalli can't understand what he did, then why not give them a chance to have a conversation in person."
Kira was stunned for a moment, looked at Lacus and said, "Do you also mean that you agree to go back now?"
"No." Lacus shook his head and said, "It makes no sense to return to Orb now. Even if Cagalli returns to Orb, no one will obey her orders at this time, let alone Xiao Ran Hasn't he canceled all Cagalli's duties? For Orb, Cagalli is just a better person than a civilian and cannot affect his will and Orb's actions."
Saying that, Lacus also looked at Kira with a smile, "And don't you already have your own ideas? Go ahead and do it according to your own ideas. Then maybe we will get all the answers."
"I know." Kira nodded, smiled gently at Lacus and then firmly turned around and left Lacus's room. After Kira left, Lacus also thought in his heart, "Why are you doing this, and what is your purpose? Cagalli has unknowingly become an obstacle to you, so you will let her leave? It seems that I also need to return to the universe to make some preparations."
Kira went to the bridge and said something to Mwu. The general meaning was that he supported Cagalli's choice, but he did not go back to Orb, but went to the battlefield where Orb and the United Alliance were about to fight. With the support of Kira and Lacus, Mwu could only Neng sighed and agreed to their choice, but even in Mwu's own heart, he knew that if Cagalli and Kira really became Xiao Ran's obstruction, even if this time passes, the final result may be that Archangel and Orb will become the real 'enemies' of Xiao Ran.
I won't update any updates tomorrow. I'll take my kids and my wife to watch a movie. Warcraft must have been seen by many book friends, but Yi Zui hasn't seen it yet. How can I miss it with this kind of belief? I refuse to spoil it.
