Chapter 497
“All right then! We’ll go together and have someone to look after us.”
Hearing Cagalli’s resolute words, Lacus knew that it would be useless to persuade Cagalli, so she could only agree to let Cagalli go together.
Mirialia and Charlotte didn’t say anything after hearing this.
…………
Three or four days passed in a flash.
After a period of sailing, Carl and his team arrived near the moon. After arriving here, Carl ordered the troops to stop advancing and wait in place.
If they advance, they may enter the detection range of the Earth Alliance Army. Such a large fleet cannot be completely concealed no matter how hidden it is.
In the bridge of the Eternal
“Heine, this time you will still lead the team to conduct the reconnaissance mission. Please report the specific situation to us in a better way. We will need to make the final adjustments based on the situation.”
Karl looked at Heine and instructed him.
Heine listened to Karl’s words, saluted and replied in a serious tone.
“04Captain, rest assured. We will complete the mission!”
“I believe in your reconnaissance ability, but you must also pay attention to safety. If anything happens, call for help in time and evacuate quickly.
Your life is more important than any intelligence.”
Patting Heine on the shoulder, Karl spoke with a serious face and a serious tone.
Nodding in response, Heine quickly left the Eternal bridge and returned to the New Mozart to lead the team to set off quickly.
On the Eternal bridge side
“For now, we will just wait for the result here! What do you think the defense situation of Daedalus Military Base will be like by then?”
“I think the worst-case scenario is that part of the troops from the Ptolemy military base are deployed here, and we may have to face a counterattack from an enemy force that is more than twice ours.
But this is all speculation, and it is possible that nothing like this will happen.
Andrew directly proposed the worst-case scenario in his mind, and this result was the worst situation they faced.
“That’s true, but it’s really hard to deal with an enemy force that’s more than twice ours, but we’ll really get rid of them.
The Earth Alliance will basically have no chance of organizing an attack that threatens us in the universe, and we’ll force them to sign a ceasefire agreement. The ceasefire agreement signed this time will be more binding than the last one, after all, the Earth Alliance, which has been severely weakened, basically has no ability to cause trouble.”
“If the Earth Alliance in the universe succeeds in this battle, they will indeed be unable to organize a large-scale battle, but it is hard to say for them on Earth.
After all, the last large-scale battle in the waters near Orb only destroyed about 50% of their troops. If they are willing to burn their boats, they can indeed organize another large-scale battle.”
Andrew nodded in reply, and at the same time said something that needs to be taken seriously. That is, the foundation of the Earth Alliance on Earth is indeed terrifying.
Carl listened to this news and smiled.
“The Earth Union Army is not stupid, especially since the Earth Union itself is just a loose alliance. They are not as united as we thought, and it is impossible for them to fight us without leaving any foundation.
And the news from the military is that they are more focused on suppressing some uprisings within their own ranks, and it is even more impossible for them to fight us again.
As long as we can eliminate more than 60% of their forces in the universe, they will agree to our request to sign an armistice agreement.”
At the end, Carl was very confident. After all, the Earth Union is not a country, but just an alliance.
Every country has its own ulterior motives.
The three leading countries, the Atlantic Federation, the Eurasian Federation, and the East Asian Republic, all have their own little ideas. Do you still expect other countries to unite?
It is simply impossible. (To read the violent novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
“Okay! We haven’t started this large-scale battle yet, so let’s not discuss the future here. Let’s concentrate on facing the various situations in front of us!”
Yizak looked at Carl and Andrew who were already thinking about what to do after the battle, and couldn’t help but interrupt the topic between the two.
The two listened to Yizak’s words and did not continue to discuss such topics.
…………
50 hours later,
Heine led the team back to the fleet and delivered the first-hand information to the bridge of the Eternal.
“Captain, this is all the intelligence we can obtain about the entire Daedalus military base under safe conditions.”
“Thank you for your hard work. Go down and have a good rest.”
“Yes, Captain.”
After Heine left, the group began to study the intelligence data in front of them. Carl’s face became serious when he saw the content.
It was really that everything that shouldn’t have come finally appeared directly. The situation at the Daedalus military base had changed dramatically compared to what we knew before.
“Unexpectedly, our previous guesses have been verified. The deployment of troops inside the entire Daedalus military base has at least increased by about 15 teams according to our organization.
That is to say, there are nearly 60 teams of troops. This time we are facing an enemy force that is more than twice ours.
In this large-scale battle, a gap of more than double is an earth-shaking change.”
Andrew was the first to speak.
Andrew’s words were solemn, and he sighed at the same time. After Andrew finished speaking, Diego spoke.
“How about we turn around and attack the Ptolemy military base? The troops here increase, and the troops there decrease accordingly.
It will be much easier for us to eliminate this military base then.”
“Diego, have you forgotten?
The main purpose of a large-scale battle is to weaken the enemy’s forces as much as possible, not to capture them.”
“Shihe, I am very clear about this purpose. But we cannot ignore the actual situation!
The enemy already outnumbers us, so we need to change our tactics. Maybe we can take advantage of our rest and destroy the enemy more easily.”
…………
The quarrel between the two finally led to Yitzhak’s opening
“The possibility of waiting for the enemy to tire themselves out is very small. If we take it too easily, the enemy will directly abandon the Ptolemy Military Base.
If we drag it out, it will affect the morale of the ZAFT soldiers, and at the same time give the enemy more possibilities to deploy some tactics.
At that time, it is very likely that we will face the danger of being attacked from both sides. As for a small force surprise attack to solve the Ptolemy Military Base, it is very unlikely.
The enemy has done this, and has withdrawn a large number of troops from the Ptolemy Military Base, and has already prepared to give up.
Therefore, it is really useless to attack the Ptolemy Military Base.”
I’m a big shot:
