After that, Nautilus and Nautilus withdrew from the battlefield one after another. Nautilus flew to the moon, while the Nautilus returned to the new Antarctic colony satellite. Later, Lenas learned from the secret information sent by Olivia that Nel Agama set sail again after replenishing considerable combat power. The target was Palau, the base of New Zeon. That was her last time. A fortress that was attacked once.
It is undoubtedly suicidal to launch an attack on a fortress with one ship and two ECOAS troops. Although Nail Agama replenished its combat power on the moon, the supplements were nothing more than ordinary mobile suits such as RGZ-95 Richel, RGM-89D Jegan, and RGM-89S Assault Jegan. Their combat power was still It's stretched thin. Especially due to the rush of supplies and the pressure from the upper management of the consortium, Anaheim even delivered an MSN-001A1, ¦Ä-plus that had been stored in the hangar for many years to the Nail-Agama.
MSN-001A1, ¦Ä-plus is a variable body developed in the UC0088 era based on the combat data of the ¦Ä Gundam successfully developed the previous year and mass production testing. After the development was completed, although there were still cost issues, However, due to other mass production plans of the Z series being shelved for various reasons, it immediately became the most mass-produced variable TMS with Z series pedigree in the universe at that time, and was therefore installed on a small scale.
But after the war, cost factors began to become prominent, and coupled with the high requirements for pilot skills, its mass production and installation plan was not approved by the Federal Army. Therefore, except for a delta-plus squadron under the Lunar Orbital Fleet, no other forces in the Federation Army are equipped with this type of fighter aircraft. The Delta-plus of the Lunar Orbital Fleet has also made many adjustments to adapt to the times, and its performance is much better than the original version. Even against the latest Commander Richel model, it still has a certain advantage.
As for the delta-plus in the Anaheim warehouse, it was a surplus batch produced that year. But most of the others in the same batch were dismantled or sold to wealthy businessmen for collection. The only remaining one is just a souvenir for Anaheim's past works. In terms of performance, it is limited to the original level. Even so, due to its innate design superiority, it is still a TMS of the same level as Richer.
A few days later, the Battle of Palau began. The expected total annihilation did not happen, but a moderate victory was achieved.
At the beginning of the battle, people from ECOAS had already sneaked into it. In the prologue, Nami Yagama used the Super Mega Particle Cannon to clear the way. Immediately, MS made the main push. However, he was accidentally ambushed and was instead surrounded by New Zeon troops. At this moment, the boy Banagher, who had already been connected to the lurkers of ECOAS, drove the Unicorn into the battle and easily helped the federal army turn defeat into victory and retreat safely. At the end of the game, New Zeon's Kshatriya came out to intercept, and the unicorn transformed into its Gundam form, not only defeating it, but also capturing it alive.
Since the purpose of this battle was to rescue, although Palau was not captured, for the federal army, this battle still achieved its goal. However, the Federal Army suffered many losses in this battle. In particular, the two ECOAS troops that acted as the vanguard were almost half-damaged, and had to be taken in by Nel Yagama in the end.
However, after this battle, all parties also learned the secret of the unicorn. It turns out that there is a secret program installed in the unicorn. Just activate the destruction mode, and the coordinates of the box originally placed in it will be displayed. During the Battle of Palau, the Unicorn displayed the coordinates of the Laplace ruins in low Earth orbit.
"Subsequently, Nail Agama rushed to low-Earth orbit and encountered the New Genfer Front team near Laplace. After a fierce battle, the unicorn fell to the earth, and Nel Yagama received the order to stand by. This standby lasts for a week. A week later, something happened in low-Earth orbit, and this time the protagonist was the Earth-orbiting fleet flagship, General Ray Bill.
General Rebel and Nautilus are the first and second warships of the same type. General Rebel was developed earlier, but Nautilus was launched earlier. In terms of personnel allocation, the crew of the General Ray Bill are mostly novices, while the crew of the Nautilus are veterans who have experienced many battles. However, as the flagship of the Federation Army, its number of carrier-based aircraft cannot be underestimated.
At the same time, the Nautilus moved to the middle of the channel between the Earth and SIDE-3. In front of it, a Zeon Republic Army fleet was approaching.
The predecessor of the Zeon Republic Army was the Principality of Zeon Army. After the defeat, it was retained symbolically, but its military strength was limited. Even the equipment only stayed at the level of the Grips Battle era, which is different from today's The Federation Army is far behind, and even in terms of strength, it is difficult to compete with all the remaining combat power of New Zeon. Even so, interested people still use this armed force with limited strength to pursue personal political goals, and its slogan of Zeon revival is deeply recognized and supported by some people within the military.
At this time, this fleet is heading to low-Earth orbit in order to rendezvous with New Zeon. However, in name, it is claimed to be the annual voyage training of the Zeon Republic Army.
It was purely by chance that the Nautilus encountered this small fleet.?Nas just sailed out of New Antarctica. Although she had known that there was a small group of right-wing elements in the Zeon Republic Army who wanted to restore the glory of the Zabi family era, she originally did not want to conflict with them when the enemy and ourselves were unclear, especially when the right-wing elements were hostile to the Federation Army. Unexpectedly, as soon as they met each other, the other party took up their positions first, so she could only order her subordinates to prepare to attack.
Pru No. 3 to Pru No. 11, the secret combat power hidden in the Nautilus, the new human legion that New Zeon was proud of in the past, achieved amazing results in the first New Zeon Rebellion. At this time, the nine The children have grown up to be young girls, and have changed their names one after another, obtained federal military membership, and each has a mass-produced ¦Ì Gundam.
On the bridge, Lenas raised the walkie-talkie and said solemnly: "The Zeon Republic Army fleet ahead, this is the Nautilus belonging to the Federation Army's Lunar Orbital Fleet. Your army has already behaved hostilely towards us. If within five minutes, your army will If the military fails to provide a corresponding explanation, we will regard it as a declaration of war. At that time, it may trigger a war between the Zeon Republic and the Federation."
After a lecture, the other party not only did not answer, but also sent MS to attack. Suddenly, more than ten Gaozhagu flew out of the universe. They were arranged around the two Musai-class battleships in the fleet, all equipped with standard combat equipment such as beam guns and shields.
Lenas was taken aback and said calmly: "Are they crazy? The gap in combat power lies here." Of course, it may also be to lure the enemy's strength. The Republic of Zeon Army cannot have only this combat power.
She looked at the display screens in several other directions and saw that the surrounding universe was peaceful. She felt something strange intuitively and immediately ordered: "Send two squadrons to deal with the enemies in front of you. The others are on standby. Get Phoenix ready. I Might have to fly it."
In fact, this was just an intelligence error, resulting in a meaningless encounter.
PS: Use the supplementary narration method to explain what Lenas did during this period. I won¡¯t write anything unnecessary. The animation omits the Republic of Zeon section. I seriously suspect that the novel did not provide a good machine for the Republic of Zeon, so it was not worth filming. After all, the unicorn animation feels like it¡¯s just for publicity for model dealers. All the old antiques are out.
