The rock walls were dyed red by the setting sun.
Originally it was just a dusty and bare area, but now its appearance changed suddenly in the setting sun.
The protruding rock formations are reflected as red as fire by the sunset, and the shadows in the depressions make their outlines more distinct.
As if no one is allowed to exist, the scenery in front of you really makes you feel the vivid and strong harshness of nature.
The next day.
The rugged rocky mountains seemed to be blocking their path, and the sand dunes were half-hidden. It was a typical desert landscape.
In this extremely dry and green scene, the land ship Lesseps-class Desmond and the medium-sized land ship Petrie-class Bagley led the way.
The Minerva followed behind, flying close to the ground at an extremely low altitude.
After yesterday's meeting, Radol Commander Zokim, Thalia and others quickly formulated a combat plan.
And depart from Mahamur base.
"About to arrive at location a."
Bato reported.
Thalia glanced at Arthur: "Is the cargo ladder ready?"
"yes."
There is an indispensable factor in their combat plan, and that is the existence of "local helpers".
After Carnahan was occupied by the United Earth Army, the local people actually revolted against the tyrannical rule of the upper class. One of the factions actively expressed their willingness to assist the ZAFT Army.
Now Radauer has received a notice, and the other party said that it will send a liaison officer with important information.
Although I don’t know if the other party’s information is useful, I still have to meet him when there are not many better options.
"After location A is passed, the entire ship will issue a red alert, and all combat pilots will gather in the briefing room."
After receiving Thalia's instructions, Mei Ling conveyed them to the ship.
When they arrived at the designated location, an off-road jeep jumped out from behind the rock mountain. There was only one driver in the car, and he looked extremely thin.
Wear standard desert clothing, including goggles and masks.
The Minerva slowed down and lowered its altitude until the bottom of the ship almost touched the ground. A cargo door opened downwards, and the speeding jeep quickly turned and successfully drove onto the cabin ladder.
After putting the car into the ship, the Minerva rose and accelerated again.
The bridge gradually sank, and Thalia sat back in her seat, sighing silently.
She understands the suffering residents suffered under occupation rule.
Now they are secretly assisting the enemy in this way without being discovered. If they are caught, they will probably endure even more torture than before.
Now she can only hope that the information brought by this local helper is indeed useful.
"The local facilitators they mentioned...are the rebels?"
On the way to the briefing room, Shin Asuka couldn't help but ask Luna Maria.
He had just heard that local militia would be involved in this combat operation.
"Hey, isn't that all? I heard that the people in Carnahan seem to be having a miserable life!"
Luna Maria frowned and replied.
To Zhen Feiniao's ears, this kind of thing always felt unreal.
The story of the regular army and the rebels working together to attack the enemy seems to only appear in movies or TV series.
The other side.
Noel and Aslan walked side by side towards the briefing room.
"Noel."
Just as the two were about to arrive at the briefing room, Aslan suddenly stopped Noel with words.
Noel stopped when he heard the sound and looked at Aslan.
"I want to ask you to do me a favor."
Facing Noel's eyes, Aslan pleaded.
"Um?"
Noel was stunned and confused——
After a while.
Just when Zhen Asuka was waiting impatiently in the briefing room.
Noel and Aslan walked into the briefing room one after another.
The drivers all stood up and saluted.
"You are finally here."
Vice Captain Arthur looked at the two people who arrived later than scheduled, with an expression on his face that he wanted to complain but didn't dare to.
It seemed that Asuka and the others were speechless.
This is not a typical case of bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
"There was a slight delay on the way."
Aslan replied with a smile, and then his eyes fell on the girl standing next to Arthur.
However, the girl's eyes did not fall on him at this time, but kept staring at Noel who was preparing to be the passerby.
Noel was already ready to sit down, but the girl's fiery eyes made her feel uncomfortable.
The girl had fluffy, thick brown hair tied into a bunch with a rubber band at the back of her head, and the clothes she wore looked as if they had been sanded.
But when Noel was about to ask, the girl glanced towards the front again.
When Noel turned around, the girl glanced over again.
After two consecutive times, the Noles were numb.
At this moment, Shin Asuka also noticed the girl and subconsciously complained: "Isn't this guy just a child?"
I don't know if she heard what Zhen said. The corners of the girl's mouth tightened down stubbornly, her thick eyebrows that showed her strong temperament were slightly wrinkled, and she looked at Asuka unhappily.
The small gesture did not affect the normal progress of the meeting.
After all the pilots took their seats, Arthur stood up and said: "Everyone, the operation is about to begin. The 'Carnahan Loanglin Pass Breakthrough Operation' jointly executed with the Ladauer team will now begin to explain the details."
Roanglin is the name of the Earth Alliance's positron cannon. Its principle is the same as that of the Minerva's positron city-breaking cannon. In other words, both can be said to be positron city-breaking cannons.
"However, as you all know, this level is very difficult. The Ladoer team has tried to break through before, but, uh... it ended in failure."
Arthur hesitated and seemed a little frustrated, but he continued: "So, this time-"
At this point, he suddenly turned to Aslan.
"Aslan, it's your turn! You'll report next."
"Ah, it's——"
There was confusion on Aslan's face, but he still followed the instructions and picked up his briefing folder.
Noel glanced at Aslan in surprise, recalling the conversation just now - Noel looked at Zhen Asuka with a strange expression, who had been looking at the girl uncomfortably.
Aslan, who was well prepared, turned off the indoor lighting and projected a bird's-eye view on the screen.
"This valley is what we call the 'Carnahan Loanglin Pass'. There is a town behind this cliff, and behind it is the thermal power plant."
Pointing to the end of the slender and winding valley, Aslan explained: "This is the only possible route for us to reach this city."
The light strokes were drawn on the lonely valley, and then the pen name went to the high ground in front of the town, where there was a rocky mountain.
"However, the enemy's positron turret is located on this high ground, and its range is enough to cover the entire valley, leaving no place for cover in this area."
While listening to Aslan's smooth explanation, Arthur nodded in admiration.
"In addition, the enemy has deployed MS and MA equipped with positron reflectors here. Coupled with the ultra-long range of the fort, even if our army invades the rock wall directly below the high ground, it may not be able to cause an effective strike. .”
"It can be said that the existence of this ma is extremely important, and because of its positron reflector, this ma is also very tricky, and ordinary drivers cannot break through it at all."
Having said this, Aslan suddenly turned his head and looked at Zhen Asuka and said: "——You also encountered ma with the same equipment in the Orb Sea, right?"
Realizing that Aslan's eyes were looking at him, Zhen Asuka hesitated for a moment.
But thinking of what Aslan just said, Zhen Feiniao forced himself to calm down and answered hastily.
"……Yes."
Aslan smiled when he heard this: "Therefore, in this battle"
But before Aslan could finish speaking, Zhen Asuka suddenly interrupted him provocatively: "Just blow up that horse, blow up the turret, and advance to Carnahan?"
Neighbors to his left and right, Luna Maria and Ray Za Barel sighed deeply at the same time.
Noel looked at Aslan in surprise.
Zhen Feiniao himself suddenly felt something was wrong, and subconsciously looked in the direction of Noel and Aslan.
Why did he use such a harsh tone again?
Having said that, when we encountered that monster aircraft before, it was Shin Asuka who shot it down on his own.
