It was determined that sending people to the military base where Durandal was located did not delay Xiao Ran too much. It was just an order to arrange for two days and everything was done. In view of the fact that he was on the road or back to There may be combat situations during the Orb process, so Xiao Ran specially dispatched Second Archangel as the ship for this entourage, and the person in charge is naturally Bargyll.
In addition to Bargyll, Mu will also go as the MS combat commander. The MSs that will go together include Midnight Gundam, Dawn Gundam, and Strike Gundam, Crimson Forbidden captured from the Earth Alliance, Black Strike, Green Buster, Black Blitz, Crimson Aegis, Blue Duel, and Xiao Ran also arranged Stella, Sting, Orro in Second Archangel was accompanied by two teams of Murasame in addition to these special machines. More than a dozen machines filled Second Archangel's Gnaku.
As for those participants, they continued to investigate the librarians. The investigation actually meant allowing these participants to act freely within certain limits, even with the help of Orb's Intelligence Department, allowing them to freely and proactively trigger possible Side Mission. For their own participants, Xiao Ran was generally so Special Treatment.
Although sending Midnight Gundam may give pilot Mayu and Zhen Asuka a chance to meet, Xiao Ran believes that both Mayu and Mayu can definitely handle this matter, and Mayu's official surname in Orb is no longer called Asuka.
After such a long period of cleaning and arrangement, Orb has now gradually got on the right track. In addition to the consistent lack of resources, under normal circumstances, Xiao Ran basically does not need to worry too much. Of course, after the placement of the group of Scrap Dealer, it has also gained in terms of resources. With some support from the Scrap Merchant Guild, it can be said that it has slightly alleviated some of the resource constraints of Orb. However, Xiao Ran did not let Orb receive these materials for nothing, but purchased them at a suitable price. Although it was not high, it would not cost Scrap Merchant Guild.
After all, waste merchants often take great risks when recycling waste, so such an equal transaction Orb not only gets benefits, but the waste merchants also get rewards. The recyclers are willing to give Orb an extremely low price in return for Orb's help to them. They also hope that Orb will become stronger. Only in this way can they continue to provide them with protection.
For such a long time, Xiao Ran has been focusing on the current situation of Orb without much time to rest. Tiandu is quietly absorbed in Orb's things every day, internal affairs, military, and diplomacy account for most of them. Counting time, Orb is now on the right track, and all the things that need to be done are arranged and Xiao Ran does not have to sit in the office all the time. But before Xiao Ran can really start to have a good rest, there is still a problem that needs to be dealt with.
That is, in the previous battle, countless Earth Force soldiers were captured, and there were many high-ranking officials of the Union among them. The Union had sent letters to Orb many times asking Orb to exchange prisoners. From the beginning, the tone was full of Although Xiao Ran has been threatened by the enemy and has always sent troops over, his tone has softened, and he is even willing to exchange conditions. However, for such a long time, Xiao Ran has simply ignored the United Alliance. It is not that Xiao Ran deliberately ignored the other party, but that he really has no time to argue with the United Alliance.
But Xiao Ran also asked the people below to compile a list to see how much these prisoners could be sold to the United Nations. You must know that the soldiers captured from Combined Fleet do not belong to only one Federation, Eurasian Federation, and Atlantic Federation There are even a small number of East Asian Federation, and there are also some prisoners from other countries who later joined Global Security Alliance and put on the Earth Alliance uniforms. The composition is very complicated. After all, it is a true 'joint' fleet, so it is no wonder that the joint headquarters is so anxious.
There were quite a few enemies captured in the last battle. You must know that there were about two hundred battleships alone. With so many battleship personnel, a lot of people were captured. It is normal for a battleship to have one or two hundred people. This is still less. Being locked up like this every day is a big drain just from eating and drinking. Xiao Ran has long been eager to send all these prisoners back to the Union, lest Orb have to find a place to raise this group of prisoners.
Of course, Xiao Ran such as the battleship MS is not going to be returned. Even if the joint battleship is not the same model as the Orb, they are roughly the same. They only need to be repaired and can be used directly under the Orb flag, and this Many of these battleships have mobile suit carrying capabilities, and even the existence of aircraft carriers. If we really want to build a fleet of this size, we don't know how much material and manpower Orb will have to consume to do it. Xiao Ran is an idiot to return these battleships to the Earth Alliance.
As for the MS, even if the model is different, it doesn't matter. Just replace the machine body with the Orb system. Anyway, the operating methods of the MS are basically the same. A normal pilot can operate them. Even if they are used as defensive firepower along the coast, it is better than returning them to the United Nations, especially those two Taiwan Destroy Gundam (the main culprit of one of the three explosions that completely destroyed the military port) has now been repaired. According to Director Symonds, that thing does not have much technical content at all. It is a strategic weapon built with volume, mass, energy, and firepower.
However, even large-scale strategic weapons without much technical content cannot be driven by ordinary people. The amount of armed firepower of the machine makes it impossible for ordinary people to operate it. However, participants like Xiao Ran are of course no problem. The difference is only the level gap and experience gap of the participants, which reflects whether the gap can truly bring out the full performance of the machine.
And Symonds even pointed out that it would be a waste of size for the Destroy Gundam, which is more than fifty meters high, to be operated by only one person. If it were operated by three or five people, the Destroy Gundam could be built into a A real firepower fortress, equipped with more weapons, equipped with three, four or five Solar Furnace, and even manufacturing combat parts for Destroy Gundam, so that it may not need other support, and it can directly go on a single rampage and solve a reinforced fleet.
After Xiao Ran heard what Director Symonds said, he quickly gave up Director Symonds's idea. Xiao Ran didn't want to build a mobile firepower fortress here, and then the United side followed by creating a bunch of them to cause trouble. Even if they wanted to do it, they couldn't do it now, at least they had to wait until they killed the United and ZAFT.
Xiao Ran was originally intended for use by the pilot who assigned these two airframes to Orb, but even a normal Coordinators pilot seemed a little clumsy and difficult to fly such an airframe, so Xiao Ran had no choice but to hand it over to Orb is used by participants, but to be honest, it is impossible for normal participants to like this kind of bulky machine with obvious advantages but equally obvious shortcomings. The most critical one is that the flexibility is too poor, so bad that it is unreasonable. This is definitely an unacceptable shortcoming for participants who cherish their lives.
And even if they accept it, they may not be able to turn this machine into their own and take it back to Prometheus. It is better to fly a machine that has been carefully adjusted by themselves, which can exert greater combat power. And once they accept these two machines, their actions will inevitably be subject to certain restrictions. After all, these two machines will serve as Orb's first line of defense to garrison Orb and cannot go out to perform missions. This is also difficult for the participants to accept.
But if there is a team and the internal relationship is very good, then the role of this machine will be reflected. Even if a team uses one person to station Orb, other people can continue to go out to perform tasks. Once in battle, with the assistance of team members, Destroy Gundam can indeed exert its powerful power, so in the end the two Destroy Gundam were handed over to two participants with their own teams for use.
Of course, Xiao Ran did not show up for all this. It was just an order and someone would naturally run errands. Anyway, although the participants of Orb now have some suspicions that there are also participants among the senior officials of Orb, they have not really locked up this participant. It is fixed on Xiao Ran, but they don't know how many people Xiao Ran has arranged around them, watching their every move at all times, and also selecting participants with good and trustworthy characters to join their Burning Legion.
The proportion of the Burning Legion members today is too strange. Although the four-member team Eshe has joined, it is still very problematic. New participants account for the absolute majority. The high-end participants are the team of Xiao Ran, which is the middle class. There are almost no participants. Of course, although Captain Jeffrey on the Border have middle-class strength, they are still newcomers after all, so Xiao Ran also hopes to add more middle-class participants to the legion.
In addition, among the prisoners of the Union, although they were prepared to return these prisoners to the Union, there were a few people that Xiao Ran planned to intercept. The first one was Black Strike's pilot Sven·Carl·Bayan, and the second was Crimson Aegis's pilot Emilio·Badley.
Both pilots had a history of surrender. This description is not quite right. It should be said that both of them have the idea of changing the status quo. They are not weapons that really only know how to fight, but have their own thoughts. However, they can only live numbly because of the environment they are in. Now that they have been held captive by Orb for such a long time, these quiet days should also give them more ideas.
