In Orb's territorial waters, the combined fleet headed by the Orb Expeditionary Fleet stayed on the sea about 200 kilometers away from Orb's homeland. And issued a notice from Orb Prime Minister Cagalli to the Orb government...
First, it announced the treason of the Sailan family and asked the government to arrest a series of people headed by Unat Roman Sailan. Most of the people on the list requested to be arrested were government officials of the Sailan faction.
The reason for treason is naturally that he colluded with the Legal Council to betray Orb's interests and signed an unfair treaty that undermined Orb's neutrality policy.
At the same time, the relevant documents submitted to the Aubu government also provided very sufficient evidence for treason. After all, with Wang Liumei, the former leader of the Dharma Association, it can be said that evidence is well prepared, and even if it is not available, it can be changed for you. come out.
Second, the Orb army is required to stop all armed actions and not to oppose the entry of the combined fleet into the port for any reason or in any form.
The Combined Fleet is the armed force that escorts the Prime Minister back to Orb's homeland. Any hostile behavior against the Combined Fleet will be regarded as treason and will be annihilated by force.
There are only two requirements, which are very crucial to capture the key points of Cagalli's regaining control of Orb's power. However, the Orb government, which has obviously been controlled by the Seran faction, will not simply agree to these two demands. Instead, it orders the army to enter a defensive state and attempts to negotiate with Cagalli using Orb's homeland as a bargaining chip.
Orb mainland, defense headquarters.
Faced with the approaching approach of the expeditionary fleet led by his own prime minister, the command hierarchy at the headquarters was divided into two distinct factions.
One faction is naturally the establishment faction headed by the Sailan family. After the war, these guys took advantage of the power vacuum left by the former Prime Minister of Orb Uzmi and a group of big bosses who committed suicide for the country, and hooked up with the Lifa Association. The Sailan family. The Sailan family did a good job of winning over this group of people, and excluded Orb, who was engaged to Yura Roman Sailan, from succeeding Prime Minister Cagalli.
Now facing the menacing combined fleet, these people who were afraid of being liquidated were naturally panic-stricken. They spread the words "Kagali is traitorous" in the National Defense Headquarters, trying to accuse Cagalli of colluding to violate Orb's independence and autonomy. It is a betrayal of former Prime Minister Uzmi.
They tried to use this to deceive the morale of the army and make the Orb army assume a confrontational stance against Cagalli, hoping that Cagalli would be able to use the enemy to gain favorable negotiation conditions.
The world outside is changing so fast, and in an instant, the behemoth Law Society will collapse. How could these enamored orb executives expect that the day of reckoning would come so soon.
Among them, the one who is most frightened is the head of the Sailan family, Unat Roman Sailan.
Although the cronies in the expedition fleet did not send back any news, the fact was before us that his son probably fell into Cagalli's hands. Life and death are still unknown...
Even the fiancée has taken action. It seems that there is no room for turning around...
But now that the Dharma Council is finished, everything is over and everything is just a futile struggle...
The other faction is those who support Cagalli or are loyal to Uzmi's neutral ideals.
These people were gradually marginalized in the two years after the war because of Cagalli's domestic political weakness. But now I see Lady Cagalli running away, seizing control of the expedition fleet and taking control of Orb territorial waters.
This is a very clear signal for the liquidation of the Sailan family...
These people who had stood aside at first were now gathered together, watching coldly as the Seran faction jumped up and down.
Of course, for those Sailan faction's chaotic orders, there are naturally many ways to obey and violate the orders, which directly caused the entire Ministry of National Defense to become a mess.
But what can the Sailan faction do?
If we really take action to cleanse these people, it will be equivalent to forcing Cagalli to use ruthless measures to cleanse the Sailan faction.
Compared to the stormy weather in the Orb Defense Building, the atmosphere on the Lord's Angel, the flagship of the United Fleet, was relatively relaxed.
After successfully defeating the Law Society, Li Boyong's reputation reached its peak. With his elite troops and the support of the three giants behind him, he secretly formed an alliance with the Three Ships Alliance.
Within the Earth's circle, as long as it is not within the ZAFT army's sphere of influence, all dimensionality reduction attacks will be carried out. Anyone who dares to disobey will be a remnant of the Dharma Council. The fleet traveled from the Paradise Island base all the way from the Atlantic to South America and into the Pacific. Along the way, they picked up several military bases that were attending religious ceremonies or had ambiguous attitudes, and also seized a newly completed Destruction Gundam.
Helping Cagalli return to Orb's power is a piece of cake. What needs to be paid attention to is to take care of the emotions of the members of the three-ship alliance and try to keep the situation to a minimum.
The most ideal result is that the Sailan faction obediently gives up resistance, Cagalli returns to Orb without any bloodshed, and the local city does not need to be affected by the war.
The worst result is that Li Boyong takes action directly and liberates Orb by force. But it would be difficult to control civilian casualties.
On the bridge of the Main Angel, in addition to the relevant personnel on the bridge, Li Boyong, Wang Liumei, and Cajiali also participated in the pre-war meeting.
"It's a bit of a headache. As a landing ship, the Main Angel has a small bridge space, so it's a bit crowded for meetings." Li Boyong, who was sitting in the VIP seat, first spoke to liven up the atmosphere, and then invited the card Carrie sat at another VIP table and said, "Representative Asghar, please include me on this. I hope we can celebrate the victory in Orb's home conference room soon."
"You're welcome." Cagalli sat down calmly, adjusted her posture, and said in a dignified tone that was not used in private: "Thank you for your army's assistance this time, but I personally hope to celebrate peace rather than victory. ."
"Prime Minister Asghar, please rest assured that the hope for peace is the motivation for me to join the fight." Li Boyong made his own guarantee, "I will try my best to avoid using force when dealing with the Sailan faction."
"I have no doubt about this after listening to your speech." Cagalli nodded in thanks.
Looking at Cajiali's appearance, Li Boyong sighed slightly in his heart. After a lot of experience, this girl has become much more mature and stable.
I thought that when she came up, she would talk nervously about Orb's theory of neutrality, trying to persuade herself to exercise restraint in her actions against the Seran family, and even give her all the command rights and let her take full responsibility.
If it was the Cagalli from back then who had the experience of being on the Archangel with her, she might actually be able to speak like that.
If Cagalli loses her temper and the situation becomes ugly, her relationship with the three-ship alliance may be damaged, and the real negotiation will probably have to be done with Lux.
But now it seems that Cagalli is doing very well.
It seemed like it was time to break her defense, "But personally, I have some additional bottom lines, and I hope Representative Asha can agree."
Cagalli was stunned when she heard this, but continued: "Please tell me."
"That means you must terminate your engagement with Yula Roman Sailan." Li Boyong smiled with a teasing look, "If possible, I also hope that you can welcome Alex, an outstanding talent, back to Orb as soon as possible. , and enter into a marriage contract with him.”
"..." Cagalli suppressed her blush, as if she had been teased by a bad uncle.
I tried so hard to act like a formal diplomatic occasion, and even asked Lux for advice, but in the end I was defeated by this guy Li Boyong...
I don’t know what nonsense I wrote.
SEEd-d, Speaker, let’s not fight anymore, hurry up and get the next one
Then we'll see if we can get a SEEd3 out.
