After Annie launches the Gundam, the battle actually doesn't have much suspense.
What's more, the Quail people's fleet with dozens of warships also joined the battle and outflanked them. With the Planetary Alliance beginning to have an absolute advantage in terms of combat power and numbers, the battle will definitely end soon.
Of course.
Of course, Annie was a little dissatisfied with Gordon and Kelly for inviting Quill reinforcements without authorization, which directly affected her unparalleled performance and caused her to lose a lot of kills, but no matter what, the battle
It finally ended, and it ended with a tragic victory for the Planetary Alliance.
It is reported that during this battle, the hundreds of starships that the Planetary Alliance hastily gathered to protect the earth were directly destroyed by the Kailon mechanical warships alone. There were more than fifty ships, directly exceeding the total number.
half of?
Of the rest that survived, almost every ship was injured, even the Orville was no exception!
As for the human losses, it is temporarily impossible to calculate.
But it is not difficult to know from the situation that the Orville has a crew of more than 300 people. The destroyed main battleships of the Planetary Alliance, especially cruisers and destroyers and other large main ships that often carry hundreds or thousands of personnel, were quickly destroyed by the enemy.
There will definitely not be many people who can successfully escape in an escape capsule when destroyed.
Maybe……
In this battle, in addition to the loss of more than fifty main ships of the Planetary Alliance, there may have been at least tens of thousands of casualties among officers and soldiers?
Fortunately, the enemy's losses were not small. Except for the five Kairon mechanical warships that escaped in embarrassment in the end, the remaining nearly a hundred terrifying warships that could transform and have very powerful fire shields were all destroyed.
In the solar system, their remains are now being analyzed and studied by Planet Alliance scientists.
Anyway!
Although the Planetary Alliance did pay a heavy price, in any case, humanity, or the Planetary Alliance, still won.
After this battle, the Alliance of Planets not only shattered the arrogant ambitions of Chiron's robots to destroy the earth and humanity and then invade the entire galaxy, but also successfully used this opportunity to improve diplomatic relations with the bellicose Quail people, at the expense of all their efforts.
Comparing the cost of more than fifty warships, it is completely worth it.
Of course, the above things have nothing to do with the Orville.
Due to minor damage, after simple repairs and modifications, the Orville, which received additional personnel, was dispatched again after a few days of repairs. It went to the border of the Planetary Alliance and the Chiron System to conduct combat readiness patrols and pay close attention to the
Watch every move of those crazy robots.
In the end, the robot Isaac, who chose to betray his people for various reasons, saved the Orville and the remaining nearly 300 crew members on the Orville due to some of his subsequent actions. With gratitude, the captain
Ed then made a guarantee to keep it, and planned to let it stay on the Orville and continue to serve as the Orville's engineer.
In this way, more than ten days have passed since the battle, and now the Orville has begun its leisurely days of cruising in the border area again.
However, unlike its previous responsibilities of exploration, chores, and cargo transportation, now it serves as a 'hero' ship and is temporarily only responsible for the tasks of guarding, reconnaissance, and combat readiness cruising.
The order of battle and authority functions it belongs to have been given a high priority in the entire Planetary Alliance's ship organization, and it also enjoys a large amount of resources and intelligence from the alliance.
For example, today, in order to commend certain individuals who have performed outstandingly before and after the "Kaylon Invasion" incident, with the instruction of the Planetary Alliance Command, Captain Ed specially represented the top brass of the Planetary Alliance on the Orville in the evening of this day.
Such a solemn and grand commendation party was held in the large dining hall.
At the party, Captain Ed Massey, on behalf of the Planetary Alliance, awarded medals and related awards to several crew members and passengers.
for example:
The ooze monster Lieutenant Yafeit, because of his contribution beyond the scope of his duties during the occupation of the Orville, that is, he took the risk and successfully sent a warning message to the earth, so that the earth and the planetary alliance would not be defenseless, so he
Awarded the Sapphire Medal for outstanding contributions by the Planetary Alliance.
Lieutenant Gordon and First Officer Kelly were both awarded Topaz, representing outstanding contributions to diplomacy, for their risk of escaping from the Orville during its occupation and successfully persuading the Quills to reinforce the Earth.
medal.
Tai, the youngest son of the ship's doctor Claire, was also given a material reward by the Planetary Alliance and a special medal in white for courage because he cooperated with Lieutenant Yafei to send a warning message and successfully instigated the rebellion of the robot Isaac.
Not to mention a certain bad little girl who took the most credit.
I won’t go into details about her various achievements on the Orville before. In this incident of ‘Kelon Invasion’ alone, she single-handedly killed nearly two hundred red-eyed robots of Chiron.
Later, in that solar system battle, he single-handedly destroyed sixty-two mechanical warships, a number that even exceeded the combined number destroyed by the Planet Alliance fleet and the Quill fleet!
For this reason, especially in view of Anne's status as a 'foreign head of state', after several discussions with the senior officials of the Planetary Alliance, they finally decided that Captain Ed would award her a Planetary Alliance soldier or general on behalf of the Planetary Alliance.
Everyone wants the Ruby Medal of Merit.
It is said that that red medal is very impressive!
So far, it has only been awarded once in the Planet Alliance's award record, which represents the highest honor of combat hero?
However, Anne did not accept the medal inlaid with gems. She threw it back into the arms of that little black boy Tai.
"It's just a broken medal. What's so rare about it?"
(ˉ▽￣~)Cut~~
"gave it to you!"
?(?▽?)?
Looking at the little kid who was dazed with two medals hanging around his neck, Anne waved her hand, indicating that he could get out and stop standing next to her and affecting her appetite for food.
Because tonight's award banquet had many, many delicious meals, and she didn't want to waste time talking nonsense with a little brat.
"But……"
"This is yours, I can't have it."
Tai had an anxious look on his face, but he just spoke submissively, and reached out to take off the medal that did not belong to him hanging around his neck and wanted to return it.
"I don't want it anymore!"
o(′^｀)o
"alright."
"Tai, just keep it for now."
"Whether Anne wants it or not, the record of the medal has been recorded in her file. Now that she has given it to you, you can keep it."
At this time, Claire, who had seen all this from a distance, stepped forward and persuaded her little son with pride.
"that……"
"Thai!"
"If you don't want it, can you give it to me?"
And Gordon saw it too.
Therefore, he walked up to Tai and spoke to Tai with a flattering look on his face, as if he really wanted to trick Tai into giving away that extremely rare medal that would definitely be very valuable in the future.
give him?
"Gordon!"
However, before Gordon could succeed, Ed came over and grabbed his outstretched hand.
"Thai!"
"If you don't want to accept it, I have an idea."
"How about you just put it in the Orville's display cabinet?"
"After all, Anne is considered a member of our Orville. This medal can also be said to be an honor belonging to the Orville?"
Ed said with a smile, and kept using his shoulders to block Gordon who was still about to go forward and say something to Tai.
"Mother."
"What do you think?"
Tai thought for a while, and he was a little undecided. He had to look at his ship's doctor mother, Claire, and asked.
"The captain's suggestion is not bad either."
"but……"
"My dear, you still have to make your own decision."
After touching his son's head, Claire just smiled and didn't give much advice.
"That……"
"Then just listen to Uncle Ed and put it in the display cabinet of the Orville!"
In the end, after looking at Annie, Xiao Heizi Tai chose to listen to Captain Ed's words and put the medal that did not belong to him in the Orville's display case for everyone to see.
Instead of giving it to Uncle Gordon who was watching and winking at him.
"..."
(??~??)
Anne was still noncommittal about the quarrel between several people around her. She just ate her own food and didn't care at all about how to deal with that crap.
"Dude!"
"You have let me down too much!"
"Thankfully I often take you to play games..."
Seeing Tai not giving it to him, Gordon of course glared at him in annoyance.
"All right!"
"Shall I get drinks for everyone?"
However, before he could finish his words, he saw both Ed and Kelly giving him meaningful warning looks, so he had to stop his words angrily, and then thought for a moment before borrowing the words.
I went to give everyone a chance to get drinks, turned around and hurried away.
"..."
"..."
After seeing Claire leaving with the brave young man Tai, and seeing Gordon and John chatting at the bar about whether they would come over in a while, Kelly first looked at each other and Ed,
Then he pretended to be casual and asked:
"correct!"
"Annie, your Gundam..."
There is no doubt that Anne's outstanding performance in the battle of more than ten days in the Gundam, and the exaggerated combat power of one person against an entire fleet has obviously been seen and remembered by the Planetary Alliance, so it must be
Kelly and Ed, who have been assigned certain special tasks by their superiors, are ready to come together to find out more.
"Oh no, it should be Jean?"
"Is your Jean the main combat equipment of your Koprulu sector?"
Now Annie's Fiery Jean is still placed on the apron of the Orville's elevated elevator cabin, and even the boarding gate was enlarged and taller during the two days of maintenance. Of course.
It is to facilitate the entry and exit of that powerful Gundam.
Of course, that kind of thing is not important. What Kelly wants to ask now is other more important things.
"??"
(???.???)????
"no!"
く(＾_?)ゝ
"That Gundam was stolen from PLANT... well, it was a toy brought back!"
(￣～￣)Chew!
That's right, if Annie takes her own body, it can't be considered stolen!
Besides, she helped PLANT so much, and before she left, she granted a wish to the speaker for free. So what if she took away those mechas and exclusive ships as toys? How could it be considered stealing?
In comparison, it was that damn Kira gang of bad guys who repeatedly stole the body that was supposed to belong to her, causing her to have no choice but to drive Jean. That gang of bad guys were really bad guys.
Is it the ultimate evil?
(…)
(●￣?￣●)
"ah?"
"Play with toys?"
Kelly looked at Ed again in surprise, and then asked in disbelief:
"Annie?"
"you sure……"
"Are you kidding?!"
Kelly and Ed obviously didn't believe it.
Come to think of it!
The Gundam driven by Annie achieved such a terrifying record, and if it were replaced by the Planetary Alliance, I'm afraid it would definitely not be able to fight without more than 500 battleships. Therefore, if that thing can only be regarded as a toy
If so, what does their Planetary Alliance fleet count for?
"But!"
(°ー°〃)
"It's really just a toy..."
(′～`●)
First, she looked at the two of them strangely, and after a while, Annie continued to explain while eating:
"Although there are mechas in the Koprulu sector, such as the shape-shifting Viking fighter jets, or the super-large Thor mechas."
(O ^~^ O)
"but!"
(lll￢▽￢)
"Those guys in the sector still like to use super-large fleets to bomb each other and massive ground and air forces to cooperate in melee combat."
???(＿＿*)??
"With the mature shield technology, various powerful weapons, human sea, insect sea and extreme close combat combat mode, they have humanoid weapons that are too demanding for the driver and not very cost-effective.
I don’t like it at all.”
(?~?)
"They still prefer consumable equipment that is energy-producing, can be installed on a large scale, and can provide continuous firepower output without much training."
(???????)
"They gave up on the delicate toys like Gundam after studying them."
ε=(′ο｀*)))Alas
As she said that, Annie couldn't help but sigh.
She remembered that she had proposed to Galen and others to research Gundam before, and even proactively provided a prototype?
But the result...
But they said that kind of thing is only suitable for low-intensity small-scale battles and conflicts, and is not very useful for interstellar wars and plane wars. Moreover, there are too many factors that affect the performance of the aircraft. It is better to improve the Banshee fighter or attack aircraft.
City tanks, etc., and even Viking fighters are more cost-effective?
Therefore, the Gundam project that she was originally looking forward to was abandoned by the other party, which made her very angry.
"??"
"No way?"
"The combat performance of the Gundam is so excellent. Now the alliance has tried to develop corresponding simulated driving and actual combat programs to train pilots. How can your country in the star sector still look down on it?"
"this……"
"Then how big is the scale of the super-large fleet mutual bombardment and massive ground air force coordinated melee that they like?"
"Is it the way thousands of warships bombard and fight?"
After looking at each other in surprise again, Ed and Kelly asked in disbelief.
She could understand mature shield technology, various powerful weapons, human sea, insect sea and extreme close combat, etc. However, they had some doubts about how large the 'ultra-large fleet' was.
It's unimaginable.
"Um……"
(′???`)
"Maybe it's a race war or a plane war on a scale of at least a million warships and tens of billions of ground air troops, right?"
(?^▽^?)
Anne really didn't lie about this.
The only wars that the Koprulu Sector deserves to take seriously are those at the plane or river system level, such as the one originally prepared to deal with the Reapers?
Of course, preparations for the war against the Reapers were soon brought to an abrupt end as soon as they began.
After all, even Anne never thought at the time that things would eventually turn into the outrageous result of "one of our own" beating her own.
But no matter what, the current Keprulu Star District has even begun to study existences at the level of 'gods' and 'creators'. They have deep attainments on both the scientific and magical sides. Gundam and other things, the other party may
I really don't like it.
Furthermore, the guys in the sector have always believed in charging at each other, and then you hit me, and I hit you, and no one can hide, and then let's see whose shield is stronger and whose armor is better.
The one who is thicker and has more firepower will win.
In comparison, the thin and slender thing like the Gundam really does not fit in with the aesthetics of violent wars of the people in the sector.
Not to mention the Zerg and Protoss.
One of them worked hard on the talents of 'individual reproduction' and 'physical evolution', and everything else was abandoned. All contact was based on fangs, claws and body fluids, and it was hard to fart.
If you can go to the universe, where can you see those steel toys?
The Star Spirits, on the other hand, have worked hard on "spiritual power" and "personal skills". Not only have their technology reached the pinnacle, they have almost deceived themselves into lameness. Even the Hell Demon God is barely qualified to be studied, like
That kind of boring Gundam is indeed difficult for the arrogant protoss to take notice of.
Therefore, Gundams like Gundam have very high requirements on pilots and airframes, are not resistant to fighting, are too precise and prone to malfunctions, and are only suitable for low-intensity battles. Logistics, preparation and combat are too troublesome, and they take up space.
It is large, the combat effect is not as durable as the Viking fighter, and the firepower is not satisfactory, so of course it will not be accepted.
Precisely because of the above, Annie never showed off her toys and her superb skills in driving them in front of those guys.
Let alone the 'big battle' like the one a few days ago in which the three parties combined had less than 300 warships.
For the Federation of Heroes of the Koprulu Sector, which has already spanned countless planes and universes, a battle of that level might not even be considered a security war?
"!
"
"!
"
Hearing something casually said by Annie, Ed and Kelly were almost paralyzed with fear!
You must know that the battle more than ten years ago was considered by them to be the largest, most dangerous and cruel war they had ever seen in their lives. In less than half an hour, more than a hundred battleships were destroyed by both sides, which was unheard of.
!
As for a battle like "at least a million battleships and tens of billions of ground air troops" as Anne casually said, they don't even dare to think about it!
In fact, even if the warships of the current Planetary Alliance and all known races are added together, there are estimated to be less than 100,000!
Anyway, they know that the total number of large and small warships of the Earth clan of the Planetary Alliance must be less than 10,000.
Even the total number of battleships of all the participating races in the entire Planetary Alliance may not be able to reach 10,000?
"That……"
"Annie!"
"You wouldn't mind if we analyzed and studied the Gundam you put on the landing pad, right?"
Kelly began to ask anxiously.
What Annie thinks is a toy, Kelly thinks is definitely not!
This is because the Planetary Alliance has included the 'Gundam' in its options for future deployment as the alliance's secret weapon, and has begun preparations for the official launch of the project. At this time, some preliminary preparations have even begun.
And she also has enough reasons to believe that the Quill people and the robots of Chiron, who saw Annie's performance throughout the whole process, will definitely have similar plans.
Therefore, she was explicitly hinted and assigned by her superiors to complete that mission no matter what.
"analysis and research?"
o(*?^?*)o
Annie blinked and looked at the two people in front of her.
"sure!"
(?^▽^?)
"If you like, use the golden light to scan it, but you can't dismantle it!"
(????)
"correct!"
|???ω??)??
"It seems that I have a complete set of design drawings and maintenance plans in the system of the cab. I will download them for you to take a look at when I am free someday?"
?(ψ｀▽′)o
Seeing how interested these guys were in her big toy, Annie naturally openly expressed her willingness to share it.
"!
"
"That's great!"
"Thank you Annie!"
"You've been a big help!"
They didn't expect that things would go so smoothly, which made Ed and Kelly, who originally thought they would have to carefully persuade and coax each other for many days before they could succeed, breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm coming!"
"Here comes the wine!"
At this moment, the very colorful Gordon finally trotted over with John holding several glasses of wine.
certainly!
Also coming with him was the second mate Petrus, an ugly and unsmiling Moclan crooked star.
"Come!"
"This is the strongest vodka!"
"It's best to have a drink when celebrating a victory like this. It's like drinking a ball of fire!"
"Hey!"
"Little Annie, do you want to try it too?"
Gordon handed Ed and Kelly a glass each, and then found that he still had two glasses in his hand. He looked at Anne and asked jokingly before everyone was about to toast and toast.
"don't want!"
(???3?)
"What's so good about that bitter, spicy, and choking stuff?"
(￢д￢.)
Anne couldn't help but frown cutely just by smelling the smell from a distance. Without thinking, she turned her head away and gave the other party a look of disgust.
