Chapter 233: Things in the Old Life
“Only 50%?” Uzmi and Yang Hongyu both frowned. This success rate was too low for them to accept.
"Yes, only 50%, leaving us too little time." Yang Hui shook his head and said.
Fifty percent refers to the development and growth of Orb. While adhering to the concept of neutrality, it must be able to withstand the pressure from the two major forces of the Earth United and ZAFT, and it must be able to protect itself even if it falls into a war.
If Yang Hui came to this world 20 years earlier, Yang Hui would have been confident in developing Orb into the third largest force on par with the Earth United and PLANT, but it is already the end of CE70. [Plan G] is about to be completed, and all the X series have been shipped to [Heliopolis], which means that the official plot line is about to begin.
It was only about half a year from the beginning of the plot to the time when the Earth Alliance had its own MS troops and attacked Orb.
Half a year is not enough for Orb to be able to compete with the Earth United and PLANT, even if the full strength of Yang Hui, Setsuna, Lyle and Tieria is taken into account.
And considering that Orb has been under the surveillance of the two major forces, if you want to form an MS unit, you need to import a large amount of rare materials from the outside. Such a big move cannot be hidden from the eyes of the two major forces. Once If it is discovered, political and economic sanctions will definitely be imposed on Orb, and Orb's import and export will be restricted, so that Orb will have technology but cannot convert it into combat effectiveness.
It is even more likely to arouse the fear of the two major forces and launch an attack on Orb in advance.
So the 50% that Yang Hui said is the success rate calculated based on all these difficulties. It is really very high.
"...I know, let's go and do it."
Wuzmi can naturally think of the difficulties that Yang Hui can think of. To be honest, after taking into account all possible factors, Uzmi , but felt that the 50% mentioned by Yang Hui was only deliberately raised to comfort them. In his opinion, let alone 50%, there was not even 10%.
However, Yang Hui’s views are exactly the same as Uzmi’s. Now Aub is a bitch who sets up memorial arches. He can only stand on the moral high ground to promote slogans and ideas, and has no strength to defend his own. Once the United Earth or PLANT make up their mind to take Orb's side, Orb has no choice but to join a force, and the bubble of neutral countries will burst.
So in order to maintain a neutral position and not be manipulated by anyone or any force, Orb must have the power to protect himself, and even the power to fight against the world.
It’s just that... Uzmi is old, and his enterprising spirit has long been blunted. His vision can only see how to maintain Orb’s current status, but cannot see future development.
Yang Hui's behavior of secretly joining forces with Sahak to help jointly develop MS appeared to be undermining Orb's position, but secretly it actually set Orb on the path to development and growth.
So...even if the success rate is slim in his eyes, he will support Yang Hui's plan. At worst, he will use his own life to pave the way for the young seeds. As long as Orb's ideas are passed down, the seeds can thrive. Growth, what does the contribution of their older generation count?
“Leave it to me, Lord Uzmi.”
Yang Hui’s evaluation of Uzmi was mixed. Uzmi could only see what was in front of him and couldn’t see clearly. In the future development situation, such a person will fail as a leader of a country, not to mention that Orb's situation is so complicated. Orb's path is to sail against the current. If he does not advance, he will retreat. He only seeks temporary safety. Orb's demise will be A matter of time.
But as the leader of the country Orb, Uzmi has dedicated his life to the country, and was even willing to use his own life to pave the way for Orb. This is admirable, not only for him, The same goes for most of the top brass.
With such a leadership group, the whole country is united and has unparalleled cohesion. This... is the real reason why Orb is called the [Sleeping Lion].
“Go to [Heliopolis]. Since it is your participation in the plan, then witness it with your own eyes until the end.”
“Well, I have already booked the flight. Let’s set off today.”
“And...if you can, help me bring that idiot daughter back.”
Yang Hui: ~囧~
As soon as he heard the words "idiot daughter", Yang Hui got a headache.
Kagalli Yula Asghar, Uzmi’s adopted daughter and the first princess of Orb, does it sound very noble?
But!
Cagalli's only comment by Yang Hui is "a naughty child who will never grow up."
He has a fierce, impulsive personality and is single-minded. He only cares about what he sees and does not think about the deeper meaning behind it. Once he has determined his own ideas, he will not listen to anyone's advice and will not listen to anyone's advice. She doesn't care about other people's feelings, insists on having her own way, and even encourages people around her to join her in going crazy.
The most important thing is! Cagalli is also a short-sighted person who firmly believes that the current Orb is the best and refuses all changes.
Cagalli is worthy of being Uzumi’s daughter. Her short-sightedness is exactly the same as Uzmi’s, and she is even better than others. Although Uzmi has no enterprising spirit, he can support the young people’s ambitions. Forge ahead with determination and see clearly what Orb's future path will be.
But Cagalli can't see clearly, and will even criticize Yang Hui's behavior, thinking that it is destroying Orb, and her approach is to constantly give in on the basis of maintaining Orb's neutrality, which eventually leads to other The power eroded Orb step by step, swallowing up Orb silently.
Yes, Yang Hui's approach does take a lot of risks, but Orb's current situation is like this. If you don't explode in silence, you will die in silence. Give it a try, Orb still has a future. But what Cagalli did was to push Orb to the brink of destruction without even a chance to look back.
So... Yang Hui has made up his mind to save Uzmi and others as much as possible. If he cannot, Orb cannot be allowed to fall into Cagalli's hands.
"Can I refuse?" Yang Hui asked with an aggrieved look.
He and Cagalli have known each other since they were children, and their relationship is quite bad. They quarrel almost as soon as they meet. Yang Hui is not a real child, so he will not be serious with the child, but Cagalli cannot help but likes to be serious with him. Ah, every time he saw him, he would quarrel with him, and he would have an attitude of "I can't win and no one will leave." This gave Yang Hui a headache. He had no choice but to hide if he couldn't afford to offend him.
"Hahaha, your relationship is still as bad as ever." Speaking of the relationship between their children, Uzmi and Yang Hongyu laughed at the same time.
"It's not my fault, it's her unwillingness to let me go." Yang Hui spread his hands and said helplessly.
"Well, I understand, but Xiaohui, I want to ask you to bring her back, not in the name of Uzmi Nala Asghar, but in the name of my father."
" ...I'll do my best, your daughter, you know it yourself." If it were a request from a national leader, Yang Hui would have refused no matter how principled he was, but he could not refuse the request of an old father.
“Hahaha, I’ll leave it to you.”
Yang Hui nodded, stood up and left. After leaving, the smile on Uzmi’s face completely disappeared, and she had a headache instead. , and Yang Hongyu's expression was completely opposite to that of Uzmi, full of pride and pride.
“Hey, why can’t that girl learn from Xiaohui?”
"Hey, Xiaohui has been a genius since he was a child. He also has the maturity and stability of an adult, which ordinary people can't learn."
Excluding the relationship between superiors and subordinates, Uzmi and Yang Hongyu have also been close friends for many years, not officially There is no need to be too serious when speaking.
"Lao Yang, what I mentioned to you before...how have you considered it?"
"Not very good. You also know that my son, my father, can There is really nothing I can do to help him decide," Yang Hongyu spread his hands and said bluntly.
"Is there really no leeway at all? Doesn't your family like Cagalli very much? Can't you help with the work?"
"Yes, the one in my family really likes Cagalli and wishes that Cagalli was his daughter, but...a daughter is not a daughter-in-law. Don't forget Noriega and the two girls from the Wang family."
"Uh..."
"Forget it, Xiaohui and Cagalli are really not suitable for each other."
"Oh, that girl...I'm afraid she won't be able to get married."< br>
……
Yang Hui didn't know about the private conversation between Uzmi and Yang Hongyu. He was now thinking about what he should do next to maximize his benefits.
If nothing else happens, ZAFT’s intelligence network has obtained information about [Plan G], and the Cruze team is also on its way to [Heliopolis]. A battle is inevitable. .
The plot doesn't matter to Yang Hui. What Yang Hui has to consider is how to preserve [Heliopolis] from the battle. After all, it is the only colonial satellite on Orb's surface. If If it is destroyed in this way, Orb's citizens will worry that Orb will not be able to protect them, which will eventually lead to disunity.
But there are benefits to [Heliopolis] being destroyed. First, you can use this reason to submit diplomatic compensation to PLANT and harvest a large amount of supplies. Yang Hui has a good relationship with PLANT's high-level officials, so he can fight for supplies. Compensation can still be done; secondly, Orb does not have cosmic power yet, and [Heliopolis] is just a pig waiting to be slaughtered. As long as the two major forces have ideas, they can occupy [Heliopolis] without any effort. Si], and Orb is still helpless. Instead of letting it hang alone and sharing Orb's energy, it would be better to destroy it directly.
What? You mean territory in the universe?
Please, when Orb becomes stronger, let alone one [Heliopolis], there will be dozens or hundreds of [Heliopolis]!
So Yang Hui was not sure whether to protect [Heliopolis] for a while.
There was also the snatching of the X series. He had thought of snatching a Gundam as a temporary vehicle, but this idea was quickly dismissed because of his identity.
There is no problem with the rhetoric of protecting himself for a while, but in Yang Hui's plan, he will definitely follow the Archangel, at least for a certain distance. Once he follows the Archangel and helps them fight, the Earth United Neither China nor PLANT will miss this opportunity.
For example, as a natural person, why can he drive a mobile suit? Another example is that as a neutral, why should we help the coalition fight?
This will bring crisis to Orb.
As for the idea of having to follow the ship, there are a lot of talents on the Archangel, including the captain, deputy captain, ace pilot, the master helmsman who uses the battleship as a fighter plane, the super maintenance division... one ship. Yang Hui is reluctant to let her become a victim of political struggle.
The most important thing is the existence of Kira. Although Kira will eventually join Orb's side, Yang Hui not only wants Kira to help Orb fight, but also wants to completely pull Kira over to him. It is necessary to contact Kira in advance, because Kira is confused at this period. At this time, establishing a good relationship with Kira and instilling his own ideas is almost the only opportunity. When Kira determines his own path and values , it would be difficult for him to accept his idea.
"The strongest adjuster...I wonder if I can accelerate your growth..."
