Chapter 408 No one is available
“What do you think? Do you want to intervene?”
After seeing off the representatives of the United States of South America, Yang Hui summoned Huang, Wang Liumei and others , even Kruse, who was inconvenient to show up, participated in the meeting via voice.
The request of the United South America is simple. Orb sends troops to help them resist the aggression of the Atlantic Federation.
Although the South American Republic is a member of the United Earth, its relationship with the Atlantic Federation has always been hostile, because the Atlantic Federation has been coveting the Panama Spaceport for a long time. In name, the Panama Spaceport is jointly owned by the United Earth, but in The territory of the United States of South America is naturally under the jurisdiction of the United States of South America.
Therefore, before the war between PLANT and the Atlantic Federation, the Atlantic Federation went to war with the United States of South America and was deprived of a large amount of territory, including the Panama Spaceport.
The United States of South America has also been persisting in the struggle and made great efforts to retain the existence of the country.
Now, the Atlantic Federation is weak, and Orb's strong rise has given hope to the United States of South America. They hope to use Orb's power to regain the territory that belongs to them and relieve the oppression of the Atlantic Federation.
“What about the reward from the United States of South America?” Cruze’s voice came from the PAD on the table.
"With various policies and conveniences, it is equivalent to becoming a vassal state of Orb, which is pretty much what it means." Yang Hui said.
"Oh, I really know how to dream."
Not only was Cruze sneering, but others were also dissatisfied with the remuneration of the United States of South America. They said it was a dependent country, but it didn't make much sense. The United States of South America was the only valuable country. It's the Panama Spaceport. Not to mention that the Panama Spaceport has been destroyed by ZAFT, Orb owns two spaceports, [Kaguya] and the giant floating platform. It's enough for Orb to use. One more spaceport won't be too big. significance.
Although South America is rich in mineral deposits, like the Panama Spaceport, will the Atlantic Federation not eat the meat it puts on its lips?
Not to mention the level of science and technology, let alone the United States of South America, the Atlantic Federation, a technological powerhouse, is not as good as Orb.
The same goes for the army. The army of the United States of South America has never been very good. The regular army was crippled by the Atlantic Federation. Now the main forces resisting the Atlantic Federation are guerrillas and militia.
The only thing left that can bring benefits to Orb is the population. However, the current population of the United States of South America is mostly old, weak, women and children, which does not increase Orb's productivity much.
So to describe it in one sentence, it is tasteless to eat and it is a pity to throw it away.
“But the United States of South America can’t afford anything else to pay for it.” Yang Hui shrugged, saying that the reward from the United States of South America is all they can afford now, no matter how much more... It can't be taken out anymore. The next step is to abandon Guozuo and merge with Orb.
But this is impossible. Wasn’t the South American War of Independence just for independence? How could it be that after driving away the Atlantic Federation, it was occupied by Orb?
"Can the mineral mining rights in South America be obtained?" Cruze asked. In addition to the population, the rich mineral resources are worth Orb's payment.
"The ownership of those in their hands can be transferred to us, but there are only a few of them. The good mines are all in the hands of the Atlantic Federation." Yang Hui said.
"Is this really... huh? Wait, I suddenly feel that this thing... is feasible!" Kruse said, "The Atlantic Federation has suffered such a big loss this time, and it will definitely not give up. "
Hearing this, everyone nodded. They all knew that peace was temporary. Under the newly calmed water, there was always a turbulent undercurrent, and it would not take long for this calm to be broken.
The main enemy of the Atlantic Federation is definitely PLANT, and Orb will not let it go. After all, Orb has caused a big setback for the Atlantic Federation this time.
"Half of the Atlantic Federation's mineral resources come from mines in South America. What if...we take away these mines? Do you think the Atlantic Federation will become angry?" Huang asked.
"No." Everyone shook their heads in unison. Although Cruze did not answer, he thought that the answer was the same as everyone else. After all, the current situation of the Atlantic Federation is not very good. If the internal conflicts are not resolved, war will not easily start, and The peace agreement has just been signed, and peace is the main tone now. If the Atlantic Federation violates this tone, it will be targeted by the public.
"So... we should intervene to help the United States of South America regain its lost territory." Yang Hui decided.
After expelling the Atlantic Federation's troops in South America and regaining control of the mines, there will be a huge hole in the Atlantic Federation's resource needs, and the reconstruction of the army and the production of weapons will also be hindered.
“It can’t be done openly, otherwise we will be the ones who start the war.” Tieria reminded.
"Yes, so we have to pretend to stay in the United States. Are our resources, aside from the necessary expenses of the plan, sufficient to support the United States of South America?"
"If it's mainly daily necessities... OK." Wang Liumei roughly calculated the resource reserves and nodded.
"Very good, you will discuss specific matters with the representatives of the United States of South America tomorrow." After speaking, Yang Hui looked at the emperor again, "How many of our existing troops can still be mobilized?"
"At present, only the newly reorganized Sixth Fleet can be used." The emperor said with a headache. Although Orb's troops were relatively well preserved, there were only so many of them originally. Now Orb's territory has expanded, not only the earth , as well as the Boyaz Fortress in the universe, the [Heliopolis] that is being rebuilt, and the establishment of the space fleet, all need manpower. Now Orb's manpower is very tight.
The Sixth Fleet is the newly formed maritime fleet. Its personnel are mainly composed of Earth Army soldiers who have defected to Orb and newly recruited personnel. Since the reconstruction of Orbu, the emperor has started recruiting troops, not only in Orbu itself, but also in the native population of Papua New Guinea. All those who can be mobilized have been mobilized, but there are still certain vacancies.
"Are there any MS units that can be mobilized?" Yang Hui asked. If you want to secretly help the United States of South America regain its lost territory, only the maritime fleet will not be enough. You also need a ground fleet. However, ordinary tank units and aviation units are difficult to compete with those who have MS units. To compete with the Atlantic Federation, MS troops are necessary.
"The First Special Forces Group and the First Battalion went to Alaska for exercises with the First Fleet and will not return until at least a month later." Speaking of this matter, the emperor felt a little resentful. Originally, the First Fleet, the First Fleet The MS Special Forces Brigade and the 1st MS Brigade were the backbone of Orb's team, but Yang Hui sent them all out with just one sentence, leaving her in a situation where no one was available to her again.
Not only the above-mentioned troops, but also the three aces Setsuna, Lyle, and Tieria.
However, the emperor also understands Yang Hui's decision. The Atlantic Federation's attitude is not correct, and they will not get used to it. They send troops to play in front of their house to let them know that Orb is no longer a soft persimmon. necessary.
"Well... let's do this. The first squadron will be transferred to South America. When the domestic affairs are almost settled, I will go there in person..."
"You can't go." Kruse immediately objected to Yang Hui's proposal, "There are countless pairs of eyes staring at you now. If you move, the whole world will move."
"I can..."
"You can't, both you and your body are too conspicuous and there is no way to hide."
"Okay, I understand, but I won't go, Who's going to take care of it?"
"Can't Barry and Ginger do it?" Lyle asked.
"Their individual abilities are sufficient, but they cannot coordinate the overall situation. They need someone who can see the overall situation and make arrangements."
"I'll go."
"You?"
Everyone looked at the PAD on the table at the same time. It was Cruze who said this.
"The only people who have the ability to coordinate the overall situation are you, me, Miss Huang and Miss Wang. You can't move. Miss Huang and Miss Wang can't escape, so I'm the only one going."
< br>
"No, your identity is too sensitive. You can't go." Yang Hui refused directly. It was not that he didn't trust Cruze, but that Cruze's identity was indeed sensitive. Once someone he knew found out, Orb would once again be involved in a dispute with public opinion. among.
"Don't worry, I will hide my identity. Not many people have seen my true face, and there is no other choice, right?" Cruze said to everyone.
"..." Everyone was silent. Cruze was telling the truth. They really had no other choice. They had the ability to complete the goals of the United South America without causing a full-scale war between Orb and the Atlantic Federation. Apart from Yang Hui, Huang and Wang Liumei, the only other person is Kruse.
"...As for the intelligence, can you let it go?" Yang Hui asked Kruse.
“All the arrangements have been completed, all that’s left is to wait for the results.”
"...Okay, pay attention to your own safety."
After much thought, Yang Hui still agreed to let Cruze go to South America to take charge of the overall situation, because they really have no other choice and there are really too few talents in this area. .
Others also acquiesced in this decision. They did not trust Kruse yet, but they trusted Yang Hui. If Yang Hui chose to believe Kruse, they would also try to believe it.
"Well, Miss Wang, please let me know the results of tomorrow's discussion. I will make a plan with Miss Huang immediately." This can be regarded as a way for Kruse to take the initiative to lower his profile. In fact, he His ability to formulate plans is not much worse than the Emperor's, as can be seen from his plan to provoke PLANT and the Earth Army in an attempt to destroy the world.
But he did not execute it alone. Instead, he took the initiative to ask the emperor to make a plan together. This was a kind of concession, and it was also a way to seize the opportunity to cooperate with everyone and get closer to the price.
"No problem."
"By the way, Kruse, there is a new task, please arrange it immediately. King Orf of the Kingdom of Scandinavia, I want to know the most important thing from birth to now. Detailed information, and send someone to keep an eye on him. I want to know where he goes every day, who he meets, and even what he eats for every meal."
"Okay, I will arrange for someone. Do it.”
