Atlantic Commonwealth, Joint Base San Antonio, California.
On the second day after Li Boyong was recuperating in the hospital affiliated to the base, he received a visit and condolences from the base garrison commander and his party.
This made him a little 'flattered'. After all, he was just a small second lieutenant, how could he attract the attention of these big shots.
After talking with the base commander and his subordinate officers, he found out what was going on.
It turns out that he, a little second lieutenant, was brought to this base as part of political propaganda.
The last pilot of the Eighth Fleet, such an unreliable and unlucky identity could become a matter of publicity, which made Li Boyong feel very absurd. Then the commander's subordinates began to help Li Boyong solve his doubts.
Although the Archangel was labeled as the Eighth Fleet due to Captain Malu's status as a student of Nahalbarton and the desperate cover of the Eighth Fleet, it has never had a clear affiliation in the military.
Starting from the captain, from top to bottom, there are actually very few people who truly belong to the Eighth Fleet.
Malu and Bakiluru are from the 5th Special Agent Division, and Mu is from the 7th Mobile Fleet. The affiliations of other members are also in a mess. There are also a bunch of people on the bridge who nominally belong to the 8th Fleet, but are actually from Orb. Student soldiers.
This may be one of the reasons why Archangel has always been unloved by his grandma and uncle.
All in all, after all calculations, only Li Boyong is the only one on the Archangel. In terms of organization, he is a serious pilot organization of the Eighth Fleet, and he is also the last surviving pilot of the Eighth Fleet.
The most important thing is that this guy fought all the way with the Archangel and achieved quite good results.
Along the way, he drove Mobius and Skymaster, and shot down and damaged many mobile suits such as Jean, Zaut, and Dean, and also sunk a Petrie-class land battleship. A false record can be considered a trump card.
It just so happened that United wanted to start forming its own MS unit, and Halbarton was a strong supporter of MS. As the last pilot under Halbarton's banner, Li Boyong was so 'lucky' to be selected by the Propaganda Department. Make a piece of political propaganda with a tragic nature.
Since it is a military promotion for the MS unit, then Li Boyong will naturally be transferred to the MS unit after he recovers from his injury. There is an MS unit being formed at the San Antonio base, and the military headquarters took advantage of the situation and let Li Boyong join this formation. The fifth MS mixed brigade was promoted to the rank of lieutenant.
It was a good thing that he was promoted, but Li Boyong had only been recovering from his injury for a few days, and before he had fully recovered, he was pulled out of the ward by the Propaganda Department to do publicity.
Li Boyong had no right to disobey the political propaganda mission of the military headquarters. In other words, it was originally a tragic propaganda, and Li Boyong's tragic appearance was better.
In addition to his propaganda duties, he applied many times to communicate with the Archangel entering Alaska, but unfortunately all were rejected on the grounds of communication control.
Li Boyong knew in his heart that the rumored ZAFT landing operation on Panama was imminent, and the upper echelons of the Earth Army had already received the news. They knew that ZAFT's real target was the Earth Army headquarters in Alaska, so they took advantage of it and transferred it to Alaska. A large force, and buried a Cyclops system underground in Alaska, preparing to use this self-explosion device that can turn a radius of 20 kilometers into a furnace and a few sacrificial troops to trap a large number of ZAFT troops.
And the Archangel, whom grandma was not close to and uncle didn't love, was also included in the list of sacrificial troops.
It is estimated that there will be a lot of propaganda to blame the ZAFT army afterwards, so communication control beforehand has become a necessary means.
In this regard, Li Boyong was also a little helpless. He did not have the means to contact the Archangel on his own, so he could only cooperate honestly with the tasks of the Propaganda Department.
After several days of propaganda missions, the base suddenly became busy, and then news came out that Alaska had been captured by ZAFT military weapons of mass destruction. This was followed by a series of propaganda reports, and the Archangel Also became a defector ship.
In response to this, Li Boyong sneered in his heart and was quite disdainful of the methods of the Earth Army's top brass.
Being treated in this way, it is no wonder that Captain Malu took the Archangel and escaped from the Earth Army directly after escaping.
She was also afraid that the Archangel and her party would not die in the hands of ZAFT or in the self-destruction of the base, but in the end they would be silenced by the military because they knew the truth about the Alaska incident.
But no matter how unhappy he was, Li Boyong didn't show it and could only cooperate with the publicity tasks honestly.
After the propaganda mission was completed, his injuries were almost healed, and he was transferred to the 5th MS Composite Brigade and served as the commander of the 3rd MS Combat Company.
Not only does he have a combat force composed of four MSs, he also has a bunch of logistics personnel responsible for supplying MSs and a few armored vehicles to support combat operations.
Although he was tasked with carrying out political propaganda within the military, the machine he received was no different from other soldiers. They were all tough assault daggers.
Regarding this, Li Boyong had a lot of complaints in his heart.
It’s okay for you, the military headquarters of XX, to make a tragic propaganda, but can you not be so tragic without the body...
The performance of something like the Assault Dagger is really bad, it is a real cannon fodder...
I worked so hard to fight from the universe to the earth. I have no credit for the Federation but it is hard work, right?
I don’t have extravagant hopes for the Sanxiaoqiang’s machine, but if you don’t give me an air raid, you can also give me a sword to pretend disaster. If not, I can also have a duel dagger and a storm dagger. It’s really not possible. A 105 dagger would be fine too.
In the end, you really only gave me an Assault Dagger. Are you just waiting for me to die in the line of duty and then take advantage of the situation to launch a wave of tragic propaganda?
On Li Boyong's first day in office, he looked at the assault dagger parked in his camp and cried without tears. The ugly and exploding single-antenna goggle lens, the monotonous optional weapons, and the pitiful 57MM caliber of the beam gun. I just feel like my fragile little body...
If I must fly a miscellaneous military aircraft, I would rather drive a Zaku on the battlefield!
Li Boyong, who took a long time to regain his composure, summoned his subordinates and almost fainted when he looked at the young faces of his three MS pilots.
At first glance, it seems that these three rookies who have only been in the military academy for a few days have become second lieutenants and MS pilots under him. It doesn’t take long for these three rookies to be promoted to a higher rank than themselves. , the reason is that he died in the line of duty and was promoted to two levels.
This is such a difficult future, and it brings tears to my eyes.
How can one be so tragic...
It’s really hard for me...
But no matter how dissatisfied he was, he couldn't change the fact that he had finally been upgraded from cannon fodder to cannon fodder captain.
If you attack the dagger, just attack the dagger...
After all, it can be considered a mobile suit, and it is better than Mobius's crispy skin that dies at the first touch.
The shield looks quite thick and should be able to withstand two more shots.
Li Boyong comforted himself in his heart while participating in daily MS training.
The baby feels bitter, but the baby doesn’t say anything...
But when he was training, he couldn't help but think about the girl in red who should be in the universe now.
