Gundam Super G Universe

Chapter 73: The Wind is Strong (5000 words)
Red received the call for help, and the Artemis Fortress not far from him naturally received it as well. Red even received an emergency task issued by the system at the same time.

The voice channel used by the NT-X Gundam to communicate with the fortress suddenly became chaotic, and Red could even hear Gerard Garcia's roar.
"What! The Foreign Minister is on the transport ship! What are you still doing? Send all the warships and Mobius out! We must ensure the Foreign Minister's safety!!"

Red actually understood why Gerard Garcia was so anxious, because the position of Foreign Minister of the Eurasian Federation was closely related to his job. If the fortress was shot down by ZAFT, Gerard Garcia would be blamed. It was unclear whether the information he got from Red could make up for his mistake, and it would be extremely difficult for him to get promoted.

But from Red's perspective, it seems like ZAFT is acting.

The NT-X's camera can already see the battle scene. This Eurasian Federation's Third Supply Brigade is an ordinary supply fleet, consisting of a large transport ship and five large cargo shuttles towing large containers (just think of it as space container trucks).

Not to mention that these ships can only be regarded as armed civilian ships at best, with only a few anti-aircraft machine guns. At present, the five Mobius escorts can drive away the same number of Jin En, making it impossible for them to effectively damage the ship. It can only be said to be outrageous.

When will Mobius be able to fight King in a 1vs1 duel? Are all these pilots ace?

Also, the three Lorasia-class warships chasing the transport fleet, is your main gun aiming system broken? At such a close distance, the beam can only aim at the side of the transport ship, I don't know if the gunners are good or not, really just scratching the paint without damaging the ship? Dare you act a little more fake?

In fact, Red was wrongly accusing the captains of the Loracia class. They knew that the attack on the transport fleet was fake. The main reason was that they had no other targets, so they had to continue the performance.

However, Red was not surprised that the Foreign Minister of the Eurasian Federation was on board. He must have come to the Artemis Fortress for himself, so he naturally had to hide his identity. Blending into the transport team was a good choice.

However, under the pressure from Jinn and the warships in the rear, this transport team obviously had no time to think about why they had not been sunk yet. After all, no one wanted to die. Various main gun beams almost flew past their heads, and they could only use all their strength to rush to Artemis Fortress.

Then at Artemis Fortress, Gerard Garcia said that he was not saving the Foreign Minister of the Eurasian Federation but his own Lieutenant General position. So he did not conduct any battlefield analysis at all, but only roared and sent all the troops to save his official hat.

In a few minutes, all the Nelson-class aircraft that were blocking the Archangel were dispatched. The first batch consisted of more than 30 Mobius aircraft, which was almost one-third of the MA forces of Artemis Fortress. (Due to the long period of no war, only the basic defense forces were left.)
However, these Nelson-class battleships did not have the same good luck as the transport fleet. As soon as they arrived at the battlefield, the gunners of the three Lorasia-class battleships in the rear were instantly awakened, and within two minutes of the exchange of fire between the two sides, they were directly blown up by the opponent's main guns.

At the same time, Jin En, who was besieging the transport team, began to show his true strength. The thirty Mobius tanks were like a flock of sheep scattered by wolves. They could only flee desperately to attract the enemy's firepower and find opportunities for possible friendly attacks.

To make matters worse, after the troops from Artemis Fortress joined the battle, the Duel and Storm, which had been repaired, also joined the battle. Mobius was unable to even break through the defense of these two Gs. It was like a human hitting a mosquito, and was quickly shot down.

Fortunately, Artemis Fortress quickly dispatched a second batch of troops, which consisted of more than 30 Mobius, four Nelson-class, and two Drake-class. This batch of troops supported the battlefield and finally slowed down the pace of Duel, Storm, and Jinn.

Red estimated that after the two groups of troops left, there was probably only one Archangel mothership left in the fortress. Mobius estimated that the last third were also preparing to take off. The guards in the fortress should have been sent to the fixed artillery positions.

So Red sent a message to Angie's personal communicator.
"Angie, has Gerard Garcia left the Archangel?"

Anqi replied to the message quickly

"Yes, there are only four guards on the Archangel now, two in the hangar, and two on the bridge. The rest are just some engineers who don't know whether they should leave or not."

When Red saw that Gerard Garcia had transferred all the guards on the Archangel, he said that this guy was still so short-sighted. He really thought that the Archangel would not dare to run away without supplies.

So Red responded decisively with two words: "Do it!"

This is why Red had to go to Angie's place before coming to the Archangel this morning. Angie is not just a super pilot. She is a strong person who can punch faster than a gun within seven steps with her physical fitness.

As for whether the guards would be alert when seeing An Qi approaching, it can only be said that An Qi's well-proportioned appearance without obvious muscles is still very deceptive. Moreover, even if they were given ten times the courage, they would not dare to point their guns at An Qi.

As expected, Angel, the guard inside the Archangel, could knock down all of them by herself before they could sound the alarm outside.

The remaining technical engineers... I hope they sleep better, because Red wants to borrow their keys. The program in Anqi's computer is set up, and after the key is entered, it can immediately connect to the mainframe of Artemis Fortress to steal the light wave barrier technology data that Red wants.

Of course, those who were knocked unconscious by Angel would be thrown into the prison of the Archangel instead of being thrown into the fortress port to die. They turned around and asked Mari and Bakilulu to consider whether to keep them locked up or activate them.

Let Angel handle the matter of the Archangel. Red said that he needed to distract Gerard Garcia for a while, so that he wouldn't start thinking about the current situation on the battlefield when he saw that the front line had improved slightly.

After all, ZAFT's behavior was completely unjustifiable, and Red now probably guessed why they did this. It was estimated that Xunlei was hiding somewhere on the transport ship, pulling the transport ship, and preparing to use the transport ship to break through the light wave defense zone.

So what Red had to do now was to cooperate with Xunlei's actions, so he directly connected to the communication of the Artemis Fortress Command Room.
"Artemis Fortress Command Room, is Major General Garcia here now?"

The Artemis Fortress Command Room naturally did not dare to neglect the communication from Red, and immediately reported it to Gerard Garcia. Gerard Garcia did not put on any airs at this time, and rushed directly to the communicator, picked up the headset and said
"Red, do you have any intelligence to report?"

Reid just replied calmly.

"No intelligence. I just want to say that the Mobius on the front line won't be able to hold out for much longer. With the speed of the transport ships, they will soon be caught up again. By then, the troops at the front will have sacrificed their lives in vain."

Gerard Garcia certainly knew what Red said. He didn't really get to this position just by nepotism. He was also a man who had fought ZAFT head-on. He was even punished to participate in the Battle of Grimaldi Crater on the moon because of Red's matter (the original work did mention it, but it was probably marginal OB, firing a few missiles from 800 miles away, and then retreating faster than a rabbit). So Gerard Garcia could even estimate how long it would take for the front line to collapse.

Thinking of this, Gerard Garcia was sweating. If the Minister of Foreign Affairs was not rescued, and he had wiped out all the troops in the fortress, then he would not have to consider using Red's MS data and OS to atone for his sins. Not being tried in a military court was the result of his proper backstage operations.

Moreover, when the relationship between the strong and the weak changes, it is still unclear whether Red, who has MS, will still cooperate with him, so Gerard Garcia immediately said anxiously
"Red, help me. I know I'm sorry for what happened to the Roosevelt. But for the sake of the country where you were born and the army is in trouble, please save your former comrades. I beg you."

When Red saw Gerard Garcia playing the emotional card, he immediately sneered in his heart, saying that he didn't do that before, and he was even using moral blackmail, he was really trying to play tricks even when he was about to die.

But this time Red was really prepared to follow Gerard Garcia's words. He would definitely help if he was in trouble. Most of the soldiers in Artemis Fortress were just trying to make a living. If he saved them, he would be able to greatly increase their favorability.

Moreover, if Colonel Ikosela followed his instructions, these people might be able to supplement the Ministry of Defense of the New Mislchi Republic, which only had new recruits. After all, his own Scarlet Wings Mercenary Group would only allow summoners to join.

Anyway, with Letty's administrative ability and Noin's professional military instructor ability, there is no need to worry about not being able to control these soldiers, who are considered second-rate troops in the Eurasian Federation.

So Red just smiled and replied

"Major General Garcia, you are too polite. Since you asked me to help, please give me the command of the front line. It will be better for me to command than for them to fly around like headless flies now."

Gerard Garcia did not hesitate at all and immediately gave the order loudly:
"Send an order to the frontline troops! From now on, everyone will obey the command of Captain Red Isaac! Anyone who disobeys will be punished by military law!!"

When Red heard this, he laughed even more happily. He first hung up the communication with Artemis Fortress and connected to the Green Astray Gundam alone, saying

"Mu, you only have a beam gun, two beam swords and a shield, so don't get too close to the battlefield. Go to the transport team and trick them into abandoning the containers and escaping into the fortress. Then just OB at the edge of the Archangel."

When Mu heard this, he immediately laughed.
"Really? You actually arranged an easy job for me. Tricking the transport team into abandoning the containers, eh? Leave it to me." After saying that, Mu rushed towards the transport team, ready to use talk therapy.

Red rushed into the battlefield with Bit's rocket after Mu, and then deployed Bit, and forced Duel and Storm back with two heavy particle beam cannons. Then, he fired a beam rifle and shot down a King that was chasing Mobius deep into the enemy camp.

The other Jinn pilots had all seen Red's power in Heliopolis, and they also knew that their machine guns were almost ineffective against the NT-X Gundam, so they all retreated decisively, preparing to return to the mothership to change to heavy particle beam guns before joining the battlefield.

Therefore, the Mobius group that was being chased and scattered discovered in an instant that all the Grim Reapers chasing them had run away.

At this time, Red briefly observed the battlefield. There were only a dozen Mobius left, all Drake-class battleships were destroyed, and only one Nelson-class battleship was left that was relatively intact. The rest were either blown up, or were emitting smoke, and their engines were about to shut down.

So Red immediately connected to the front-line troops' channel and commanded
"I'm Red Isaac. All Mobius troops, gather behind me and form a fleet review formation. The crew of the damaged Nelson-class will immediately abandon their ships and transfer to the undamaged Nelson-class. Once the personnel transfer is completed, retreat immediately."

After Red's order was given, the Mobius troops were actually a little puzzled as to why they were forming a review formation, but the order from the rear had already been passed on, so no one hesitated. All those who could move flew to the back of the NT-X and hovered, forming a small cube.

As for those people on the damaged Nelson-class ship, they felt that Red was the God who came to save them. Without any hesitation, they immediately abandoned the ship and moved to the only ship that was not damaged.

The ZAFT ships on the opposite side did nothing to stop the troops of Artemis Fortress from organizing their formation and transferring personnel.

Because they wished to spend more time here with Red, so that they would not have to face a big enemy after the Thunder sneaked in, and what good would it be to confront Red head-on now. Their main goal was to sink the Archangel and the assault.

Therefore, even though Izak saw Red's teeth chattering, he did not rush over to fight with Red. Diego just aimed his gun at the NT-X Gundam in the distance to prevent it from using that high-speed charge tactic again.

At the same time, Mu also came into contact with the transport team. At this time, he was possessed by the actor and directly connected to the transport team's communication and shouted:
"I'm Captain Mu La Frada. What are you doing with this transport team? Are you slowly preparing to crawl into the fortress? Unload the containers and enter the fortress first. Will these supplies explode or disappear on the spot if they float in the universe? The troops on the front line can't hold ZAFT back for too long, so just recycle the supplies after the war. The broken ones can be considered normal losses!!"

The people in the transport team were suddenly enlightened by Mu's roar. The most important thing was that the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Eurasian Federation felt that what Mu said made sense. He knew why the Eagle of Endymion appeared here, and he knew which was more important, his own life or those materials.

So the Foreign Minister of the Eurasian Federation immediately exceeded his authority and shouted
"Didn't you hear me? Throw all the matter into space to reduce the weight of the ship. Everyone, hurry to the fortress!!"

Since the Minister of Foreign Affairs had said so, the captain of the transport ship felt that it seemed feasible for him to take the blame, so he directly issued an order to unhook all the cargo.

The cargo shuttle following behind the transport ship instantly unhooked the cargo behind it, and then relied on its own super power to instantly rush in front of the transport ship.

The transport ship opened the hangar at the rear and dropped all the containers inside. Then it increased its speed and rushed into the light wave barrier of the Artemis Fortress. By the way, it brought an enemy who was invisible throughout the journey into the fortress.

Reid actually didn't have time to care about what was happening behind him. Since he had taken command of the front line, he had to do something. So after Mobius had assembled, he gave the order:
"Mobius troops, all of you who are currently serving as squad leaders, move to the first row. Then, all of you maintain your formation and move away from the battlefield. Go around to the warships in the rear.

But don't charge in, just drop the anti-ship missiles within the maximum range, and drop one missile each time. Don't kill the enemy. If a Jinn attacks from the front, fire a volley of linear cannons. If the enemy cuts in from the side or rear, give up the attack immediately. Accelerate and rush to the edge of the battlefield. Jinn's linear speed is not as good as Mobius's, so don't be afraid, just shake him off and then come back to harass him.

Captain, is everything okay?!"

The Mobius pilots who are still alive are all skilled workers, and there are actually quite a few captains. After Red gave the order, five voices responded immediately.

"Received an order" ×5
Seeing this, Reid said again
"I'll hold Duel and Storm back. You guys go straight out after I make my move. After firing the missiles, all of you go back to the Nelson for supplies. If too many can't get in at once, go in in batches. Those who can't get in must guard the battleship. Now, follow me!"

After saying that, Red opened Bit again and fired a volley of shots at Baofeng from three angles with his light-speed rifle.

Diego on the Storm's face turned green, wondering why the opponent was targeting him, and he dodged frantically.

However, Bit is just like a clone in front of someone with spatial perception ability. Red can accurately control where each Bit shoots, and the angles are extremely tricky.

Storm Gundam said that it was a firepower machine, and mobility was not its area of ​​expertise. In the second round of concentrated fire, Diego, who was focusing all his attention on the heavy particle beam cannon, was found by Red, and the beam rifle was fired at Storm's lower body.

Fortunately, Yitzhak was very calm this time and did not make the bad strategy of attacking Red to save Zhao from the rear. You have to know that the speed of the duel now is just a strong attack without an air combat backpack, and the attack speed is not very good. Red is not a wooden stake. By the time he rushed to the front, Baofeng had already been broken.

Therefore, this duel was just about firing a few shots from a distance to force Red to dodge and reduce the frequency of the three-shot attack. However, given the mobility of the NT-X, this tactic had little effect.

So Isaac simply used himself as a shield for Storm, and when he saw that Storm couldn't dodge, he rushed forward and used the anti-beam shield to block Red's attack.

At the same time, Diego finally remembered the cooperation between the two in the military academy. While Duel's body blocked Red's sight, he assembled a beam sniper rifle, flashed from the side and shot Red directly.

Also called Red, he kept the good habit of constantly changing positions during the battle. He couldn't see Baofeng, and Baofeng couldn't see him either. The hit rate of this telescopic gun sniping based on feeling was still very limited. Even though Diego was good at shooting and didn't actually miss the target, Red still dodged with the enhanced thrusters at the moment the alarm sounded.

Afterwards, Diego seemed to have come to his senses and began to cooperate with Duel to suppress the movement of the NT-X Gundam. The G-series Gundam is still stronger than the NT-0080 Gundam produced in UC1 in terms of fire control (Red's NT-X is still the NT-1).

So even if their operating skills couldn't keep up with Red's movements, they still made up for the gap with the performance of their machines. They relied on the missile firepower coverage of the Storm Gundam and the beam sniper rifle to shoot at Red.

Since Red didn't attack the cockpit at all, he really had no way to deal with the two people on the opposite side, and the two sides were in a stalemate.

Also in a stalemate were the Mobius team and the three motherships.

At Red's suggestion, the remaining dozen or so Mobius completely ignored whether King would go to support Duel and Storm, and turned into mosquitoes in the hot summer to constantly harass the three Loracas. Every time King tried to attack from both sides, they would quickly fly away. Then, when King rushed to the battlefield of the three Gundams, they would fly back.

Now, in order to deal with the NT-X Gundam, which they thought was immune to live ammunition, these Jinns all changed their equipment to bulky heavy particle beam cannons. This thing was not suitable for attacking the smaller Mobius, and there were not enough of them to surround them from all directions, so they were really stretched for a while.

Of course, there were still Mobius who were unable to dodge and were shot down, but the rate of casualties had slowed down significantly compared to before Red's command.

However, while the front was stable, the Artemis Fortress in the back still exploded. Thunder sneaked in and quickly destroyed several light wave generators just like in the original. The umbrella of the Artemis Fortress was opened with a big hole. The light of the explosion was seen by anyone on the front line who was not blind.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Red immediately ordered in the front-line command channel:

"Fort Artemis is under attack. Team Mobius, after shaking off the enemy, all members will return to defend the fortress. Nelson, don't rush back yet, go to the emergency exit and wait. If all else fails, pick up the escaping ship."

After that, Red controlled the two Bits to fire heavy particle cannons that continuously swept the Duel and Storm away. Then he took back the Bits, activated the rocket propulsion and rushed directly back to the Artemis Fortress. At the same time, he connected directly to the Archangel and said

"Malu, hurry up and have Kira use his sword suit to attack and clear the way. It's time for us to run!"
