Why would I join the army if I can’t drive a Gundam!

Chapter 40 The Head of State’s Guard is the best in the world!

Eugen was not a good-for-nothing. Anyone who could reach the position of garrison commander was not incompetent. Therefore, he quickly understood what Macharius wanted to do.

His original plan was for the federal army to take vehicles, and then use explosion-proof vehicles equipped with water cannons and loudspeakers to clear the way, disperse the crowd along the way, and then pick up the delegation. Considering the poor traffic conditions on the road, the best drivers were dispatched.

But now, plans have changed!

"Our wheeled armored vehicles are no different from those of the Zeon Army, so we only need to repaint them with Zeon Army insignia and then change them into the uniforms of the Führer's Guard. This way, it will be much safer than directly sending them with Federation Army equipment!"

"I understand, but I'm curious, why do you insist on wearing the Führer Guard uniform? Aren't the Wehrmacht uniforms any better?"

"Commander-in-Chief, if you were an ordinary Zeon, would you be afraid of the Wehrmacht or the Führer's Guard?"

"Hahaha……"

Several officers then burst into laughter, apparently knowing which one the Zeon people feared more.

"Then, for this operation, you don't have to..."

"Commander, please allow us to participate!"

"Why? You have to know that the risk is huge. If you just want to add something to the file, I can..."

"That has nothing to do with it. This is the plan I proposed, so I should be responsible for it!"

Macharius did not do it for the sake of gaining credit; he asked for it mainly so that he could pretend to be a Zeon secret police officer and beat up the Zeon people.

"Well, you come and be my driver!"

"what?"

Several officers were immediately dumbfounded and quickly surrounded Eugen, trying to make him change his mind.

"If a sixteen-year-old student isn't afraid, what should I, a forty-seven-year-old man, be afraid of?"

So, these officers also expressed that they wanted to join in.

"Get out, get out, get away from here. Oh, by the way, Yodel and Hermann, you two stay here!"

Eugen seemed to suddenly remember something and pointed at the two officers.

"Their Zeon accents will be a bit heavier. What about you, Cadet Kriini?"

"I think I can do it!"

Macharius tried to speak a few words using his impression of the Zeon accent.

"Yes, at least it's okay to hide it from the civilians!"

Eugen nodded, then quickly gave his orders.

In less than half an hour, the rescue convoy's paint scheme and the uniforms needed by the personnel were ready. In order to make the rescue team look more realistic, Commander Eugen even got a bunch of ID leather cases printed with the word SS. However, the contents inside could only be filled with everyone's own ID cards, after all, there was not enough time.

"Sir, what are you doing with these things?"

"Don't ask me, this was an order given by the Space Army Headquarters before, and I was just following it!" Macharius nodded. Obviously, there was also an idea king in the Space Army Headquarters!
"By the way, if you get intercepted, remember to fight back hard!"

"Why, Boss, didn't you say before that there were women, the elderly and the weak there?"

"Then you should pick on the adults, especially those who are fat and strong. These guys can withstand a beating. As for why, do the Kilian secret police need a reason to beat people?"

The members of the Red Dragon Team did not expect that their boss would get into the role so quickly, but there was not enough time for them to rehearse, so everyone had to get in the car and practice the appearance of the Führer's Guard face to face with each other.

Because the delegation was large in number, Eugen dispatched ten armored vehicles at once, and there was nearly a platoon of Federation soldiers accompanying them. There was no other way around it. Although they were the Zeon garrison, there were very few soldiers who could speak with a Zeon accent. The garrison searched everyone, even the chefs, to get this number of people together.

The lead vehicle was naturally driven by Macharius. He had scored full marks in the armored operation subject in the academy. He could master the dozens of vehicles of the Federal Army as long as he read the operation manual and took a few easy controls. Apart from his lack of experience, he could even compete with the old instructors in the academy who had been driving for decades.

The convoy quickly boarded the waiting Columbus transport ship in Guardian Land, and then headed towards Zim City. At this moment, most of the colony satellite was under martial law. Zeon officials also knew that the protesting people were difficult to control, so they asked the National Defense Force to block the roads leading to their area, and also set up checkpoints on other traffic arteries.

After the federal army's convoy drove out of the spaceport, it was naturally stopped by one of the checkpoints.

"Don't panic, watch me!"

Commander Eugen, who was sitting in the passenger seat, had just opened his mouth to comfort Macharius when he saw him open the car door and jump out. Then, Macharius, wearing the uniform of the Führer's Guard, began to sprint, jump, and kick.

Then, the Wehrmacht lieutenant in charge of the checkpoint was kicked to the ground by Otfei.

"Who the hell are you? How dare you stop our car?"

Macharius did not stop at kicking the opponent down, he even pulled the opponent's collar and slapped him in the face. Then, he pointed at the dissatisfied Wehrmacht soldiers around him and shouted arrogantly.

"What are you looking at? Do you want to enter the decompression chamber?"

So, the Wehrmacht soldiers could only lower their heads, and the beaten officers could not stand up to these damn secret police. They could only curse them in their hearts, but their bodies waved their hands and let them go obediently.

Of course, before leaving, he did not forget to ask for Macharius's name, intending to settle the score with him when he became rich in the future.

"My name is Anabel Cardo, remember that!"

Of course, not all Wehrmacht soldiers were as brave as this officer. The second checkpoint that Macharius and his men encountered saw from a distance that the driver was dressed as a Führer's Guard, and immediately opened the way for him.

"These hounds, ugh!"

Looking at the convoy going away, the soldiers and officers of the Wehrmacht did not forget to spit behind its back. They themselves could not stand those damn secret police.

However, the convoy finally stopped less than three blocks away from the delegation because the area in front of them was already crowded with Zeon people. Perhaps because they felt that the law could not punish the masses, these Zeon people did not give way even when they saw the secret police.

"Sir, do you want us to move out?"

"No, I put something in the car. Take that thing out and hang it on the front of the car!"

Commander Eugen shook his head. They were still far away from the delegation. If they got off the car and chased them away now, it would take forever.

Several soldiers quickly found what Eugen was talking about, which was a huge bust of Kihlen.

"Yes, that's it. Hang it up for me! Then we can move on!"
