"The island's defense line has completely collapsed! If it doesn't regroup, it will be completely destroyed!"
The command room frequently received reports of defeats from various theaters, and Colonel Suoke was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
However, Yona Roma, the supreme commander of the national army, said as if the matter had nothing to do with him: "Then regroup quickly! Hurry up, what are you waiting for! Really!"
This doesn't look like a commander!
Suo Kai tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart and continued to ask: "So, your order is...?"
Suggestions given to him were refuted, and he himself could not provide specific instructions. Where had the strategic theory he usually talked about all day gone?
"First Evolution"
At a time like this, why doesn't he put his best words to use?
As soon as he said this, Yuna put on a face that said "Don't try to lie to me" and said: "What? My order? Isn't this what you should do? If you lose again, it's all You did it!"
Seeing him being so proud, Suo Kai was stunned.
In such a critical situation, could this person only be thinking about whom to blame?
If he had the same tone when commanding the front line in Crete, then Colonel Tega and others who died in that battle would definitely die with their eyes open.
Now the officers and soldiers around him looked at the supreme commander with a look that was almost disgusting, and some even clicked their tongues without concealing it.
Morale was extremely low.
At this moment, an operator exclaimed: "Colonel Sokai! There are newly added friendly forces in the outer sea!"
"What?"
newly joined? What does it mean? Suokai looked at the operator and saw the man turning his head in surprise.
"Their identification code...is the carrier-based aircraft of the Jianyu Lei!"
"What did you say……?"
Suokai couldn't believe his ears, but Yuna beside him felt guilty.
Jianyu Lei—that was the expeditionary force flagship that sank in Crete.
How come its fighter jet didn't appear until now?
Another operator was heard reporting back: "In addition, there is an unknown MS! It is flying towards the headquarters with Murasame!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the machine body was already reflected on the screen on the front.
"What is that?"
Yuna couldn't help shouting.
Flying in with the three Murasames was a mobile suit that was shining with golden light.
The four aircraft shuttled through the line of fire and shot down the ZAFT fighter jets surrounding the National Defense Headquarters one after another.
――Could it be... friendly forces?
"Golden——"
While Suokai was staring intently at the sublime brilliance emitted by the machine, the communication channel was suddenly opened.
"I am Cagalli Yula Asghar, daughter of Uzmi Yula Asghar! Defense Headquarters, can you hear me?"
As soon as this voice entered the command room, there was an electric shock that shocked people's hearts.
"Lady Cagalli?"
Suokai looked intently at the golden fighter plane.
The communication was sent from the unknown aircraft that continued to approach.
"When something unexpected happens, you may question my authenticity, but I still have to talk to the commander. Please—"
"Cagalli—!"
The call that came out before she could finish her words startled the officers and soldiers.
I saw Yuna, who was standing next to Sokai just now, snatched the operator's phone at some point, and shouted with joy: "Ka... Kagali! You are here, my honey, Thank you, you are my goddess! I am the commander! It’s me—!”
This change of attitude was faster than turning the pages of a book, making everyone present dumbfounded.
Many people have heard that Yuna clearly recognized Cagalli's Assault Blonde in Dardaniel, but still insisted that it was a fake.
"...Yura, do you admit that I am true - I am Cagalli Yuna Asghar, the representative head of the Orb Joint Chiefs?"
With an even slightly deliberate smile, Cagalli asked again and again.
"Of course! Of course! I know it very well -!"
Yuna seemed to treat the fact that she was a fake and ordered to fire on her as if it didn't exist at all. After answering happily, he solemnly assured Sokai and others: "She is genuine!"
I knew he would say that.
This guy did everything he could to avoid responsibility. Seeing the battle collapse, how could he let go of the chance to escape?
Suokai, who was aware of Yuna's intention, was almost exhausted from this feeling of boredom.
This stupid and irresponsible leader was the idiot who let him go.
"Then, I give the order with the authority of Representative Orb!"
At this moment, Cagalli suddenly changed her soft tone and shouted in a sharp voice: "Soldiers from the headquarters, immediately arrest and take into custody Yuna Roman Seran on charges of national rebellion!"
Everyone was slightly startled when they heard this, and subconsciously looked at Yuna.
At this moment, Yuna was nodding his head along with her words. It took him a while to realize, this is - what about me?
"I'm sorry, Supreme Commander!"
Suokai's eyes lit up, he turned around, rubbed his fists and looked at Yuna with a grin.
"you want--"
boom--
Before Yuna could finish speaking, a huge fist appeared on his face, forcibly interrupting his nonsense.
"In accordance with the order, please let us take him into custody!"
After Suokai finished the fight, Shi Shiran explained his reasons.
The surrounding soldiers also rushed to jump on him, punching and kicking him.
Listening to his futile screams, Suokai's long-simmering anger was finally swept away.
"Let him tell you where Jibril is hiding! Unate is in the Executive Yuan, right? Turn on the channel!"
While Cagalli continued to support the air battle, she began to give orders brightly: "All Orb troops, follow my command from now on! Do you understand?"
"yes!"
At her order, all the officers and soldiers in the command room stood at attention and saluted.
――Lady Cagalli is back, at this critical moment...!
Representative Orb returned under the expectation of everyone, which made Suokai's heart surge with emotion.
Perhaps Cagalli has almost zero political talent, but she has good talent and vision in commanding the battle situation and looking at the overall situation.
She is not suitable for politics, but she is definitely suitable for the military battlefield.
"The remaining troops will assemble at Takamizu, and the two Murasame teams will go to the assembly area to cover the air!"
Cagalli, who regained her power, immediately issued the order.
The instructions were given quickly and clearly. In addition to observing the battle situation from a high altitude, it was also thanks to the experience of commanding defensive battles in the previous war.
Her voice also reached the grassroots soldiers.
Seeing Murasame who was originally in retreat, the dynamics of Heretic A immediately changed, and the frigate group slowly regained control.
"Everyone, please lend me your strength - let us protect the country together!"
Cagalli's prayer-like words immediately won a response from the frontline battlefield.
――Protect Orb...!
"Lady Cagalli...!"
Suo Kai felt his eyes heat up.
Cagalli is back.
As an Orb soldier, she couldn't let her see the joke.
However, the battlefield situation will not change because of a simple passionate speech.
Under the charge of one Legend Gundam and three Destiny Gundams, Orb, who was already at a disadvantage, was losing ground even with Cagalli's command.
Didi didi——
"Lady Cagalli, be careful!"
At this moment, Dawn Gundam radar detected a threat from the rear.
Amidst the exclamations of Nishizawa and others, Shin Asuka, who had penetrated the battlefield from the rear, rushed up in the Destiny Gundam.
"Walking around is annoying!"
Holding Arondette's beam sword high, the Destiny Gundam spreads its light wings.
Dragging the afterimage to the rear of dawn.
"Lady Cagalli!"
It was also at this moment that Nishizawa and others rushed to Mingxiao's side with their shields raised.
"die!"
Alondette's beam sword suddenly fell.
clang--
Alondette's beam sword was blocked, but Murasame's MS was also knocked away.
Before Nishizawa could adjust the machine body, Destiny Gundam raised his hand and placed it in front of Murasame's cockpit.
boom--
The cannon in the palm lights up.
The mobile suit driven by Nishizawa exploded instantly.
"Caesar!"
Ikeda shouted in grief.
"What are you looking around for?"
Following the sound coming from the cockpit, Chi Gu turned his head and saw another Destiny Gundam arriving in front of him.
Alondette's beam sword fell, and the Ikegaya machine exploded.
In an instant, the Qitai Murasame who had escorted Cagalli to this place exploded.
"Lady Cagalli!"
"Cagalli!"
Behind, a dozen mobile suits accelerated towards Cagalli.
