Chapter 98 Factional Dispute
In the dock of Luna 2, a newly built warship is ready to set sail.
This red and white warship is somewhat like the Pegasus-class raid landing ship during the One Year War.
The Pegasus-class warship is a new type of warship developed by the military over the V Plan during the war. The most famous white fortress was one of the three warships built by its first staircase. Then, based on the data feedback from the first staircase in actual combat, the second staircase began. The two warships in this staircase, the Trojan Horse and the Gray Ghost, are also called the "Pegasus-class modification" or the "Trojan Horse".
The warship here is now an improved product based on Pegasus class modification data. It is the first of the third staircase planned and the sixth of the Pegasus class warship - the White Horse.
Although the third tier warship was filed during the war, the plan was frozen because the war ended shortly after the case was filed. A year ago, after the Federal Parliament passed the Federal Army Reconstruction Act, the frozen third tier warship plan was launched again. Now, the two warships in the third tier, one is the White Horse, and the other is the Albion, which has been equipped in the Third Fleet.
On the bridge connecting the dock and the White Horse, two officers in federal uniforms walked on it.
One of them, who is in his thirties, is burly and two meters tall, and with a pair of peculiar glasses, he looks awesome.
Another officer was not short, at least 1.8 meters tall, but he was still much shorter than the two meters beside him. He looked over forty years old, with a mustache on his lips, and his expression was not as frightening as the officer beside him, but instead gave people a kind-hearted feeling.
These two people of the same type are both colonel ranks. The two-meter giant, named Basque Ohm, is currently in the General Staff of the Earth Federation Army. It seems particularly strange when he appears at the headquarters of the Cosmic Army, Luna 2, because he is a subordinate of Brigadier General Garmitov Heyman, who has a position opposite to the current Commander-in-Chief of the Cosmic Army.
As for the colonel who was with him, the new captain of the White Horse, Henry Varoua.
The warship has not yet been launched, Henry Varoua is the veritable first captain, and the so-called "new" is the former White Horse Captain, who was appointed to the Third Fleet, and has now been transferred to Captain Albion Captain Colonel Apa Sinapus.
The White Horse was originally assigned to the Third Fleet, just like the Albion, and it was only because of this that it was sent to Moon God 2. Now, due to the incident that occurred a few days ago, the Federal Army General Staff had to respond to this emergencies. This new decision was to draw the White Horse, which originally belonged to the Third Fleet to outline the battle sequence of the Third Fleet, and build an elite pursuit team with it as the center, to pursue the stolen Gundam and eliminate the terrorists who launched the incident.
The arrangement of the white horse seems to be in line with the procedures, but it is a bit surprising to re-arrange the warships that have been deployed.
In fact, this is related to the power struggle within the federal army.
After the war, the space fleet that made great contributions during the war almost controlled the entire federal army, and the ground army was suppressed.
Originally, in the absence of budget, all good equipment and alerts were assigned to the space fleet, including these two Pegasus-class warships. Now, one of the two warships has drawn out the third fleet in the name of pursuit, and it can even be said to be outside the system of the space fleet, and its captain is also a ground faction, so it is unknown what is there.
"It's true that the Gene remnant party is almost Christmas, and it's at this time..." Henry complained with displeasure. However, although he was dissatisfied with the Gene remnant party on the surface, he was actually allergic to the long-lost gravity-free environment.
Colonel Basque Ohm smiled and said to Henry: "Although it is a headache to cause trouble at this time, you can also see Francis whom you haven't seen for a long time. He should have grown taller!"
Francis Valua, now a third-year MS department student at Anaheim Academy, was also involved in the incident and, as usual, was temporarily recruited into the army.
Henry and Basque met during a year of war, and fell in love with each other because of similar experiences and similar personalities. Now they have regarded each other as confidants.
Henry heard his friend talk about his confidante's son and smiled cheerfully, "He is still like that. He originally thought he would never be able to enter the army in his life, but he didn't expect to encounter this opportunity. It was a coincidence."
"Is that so? I remembered it." Basque said in a good mood, "Francis has been determined to join the Federal Army since the beginning of the past, but because of the physical examination..." Basque paused, and a smile gradually began to appear on his face. After looking at Henry, he said, "I thought he could live an ordinary life. Is he still determined to join the army?"
Henry nodded and looked at Basque and said, "At least during the summer vacation, he is looking forward to joining the army."
As they were talking, the two had already walked into the White Horse ship.
Since the captain of this ship has been replaced, all the staff members who are appointed will naturally be replaced.
Henry was also the captain of the warship during the war One year, and was converted to the commander of the ground fortress after the war. Now, since he has returned to the front line, he naturally transferred his troops together. Therefore, every staff member in the warship will respectfully salute after seeing the captain.
Walking in the aisle, Basque deliberately lowered his voice and said worriedly: "I will get off the ship after I arrive at the Rose Life, and then discuss the aftermath with Anaheim. This time the mission seems to be very difficult, and the other party steals a Gundam. If I need my help, I can take Francis away."
Henry knew his friend's thoughts well. He didn't want Francis to embark on this dangerous road together.
Henry thanked his friend and said deeply: "Thank you! I will give Francis a choice and wait for his answer!"
"I understand." Basque was a little helpless. He knew that Henry was kind on the surface, but actually adhered to principles, especially to his family. Basque can only hope for Francis' choice now, although the probability of his agreement was very small, because both father and son were the same stubborn.
