Captain, your ship has exploded again.

Yuraine kept a close eye on Zhang Xun's movements. Seeing that the other party was prepared, she knew that a fierce battle was about to begin. She immediately hid behind the bridge gate and locked it. The victor would be inside, and she only needed to watch.

Without waiting for the escaped Yu Lai gun to be picked up and fired immediately, there were 11 people on the bridge, including the soldiers escorting Zhang Xun. When they saw Zhang Xun raise his gun, the Earth Army began to fire, and the already small bridge was filled with chaotic gunfire.

In a gunfight, whoever is prepared first has the advantage of speed. Earth's army has the advantage of being able to raise their guns first. But did Zhang Xun and Natal both experience bullet time enhancement through super serum? That's impossible. Who still uses bullet time these days? The micro shield can withstand about four 7.62 caliber shots fired directly from 20 meters away.

The moment the battle began, Zhang Xun was shot in the head. After killing the enemy in front of him, he turned around and shot the soldier who was squatting next to him and checking his weapon.

"You son of a bitch, you actually ambushed me! Young man, you have no sportsmanship!"

Natal, hiding behind the captain's chair, rolled her eyes. Who's a good guy who'd shoot and stick their head out? Faithful shooting is the only way to survive. With your shield and your head practically sticking out, if you don't get shot, doesn't that prove the Earth forces are weak?

A burst of gunfire rang out, and the reckless ones were all killed. The experienced ones took cover and fired at Zhang Xun's direction from time to time.

"One of them is behind the captain's chair, and the other is behind the MS control console!"

Communication was still being established in Gabriel, who began reporting outposts to assist the Earth Force.

"You just hung up for no reason! I'll call you back when I'm done! What kind of voyeur are you, looking around all the time!"

Gabriel was stunned by the insults. Weren't we exchanging fire? How come it's like we're having a casual chat and they're even yelling at us to come back?!

"Kill him! You despicable scum!"

Annoyed by the suppression, Zhang Xun retorted, "You unwanted brat, hated by cats and dogs alike, a hermaphrodite who gets mocked even in the toilet, a perpetually love-starved and sexually deprived person, a VIP member of the proctology department..."

Gabriel didn't understand at first, but after all, she was highly educated and reacted quickly, letting out a scream like a woman, and holding up the cat in her hand to loudly prove that the cat didn't dislike her.

The piercing sound caused everyone on the bridge to cover their ears in discomfort.

Seeing Gabriel going crazy on the radio, Zhang Xun, despite his headache, pulled out a metal-like object from his boot, attached a button-like detonator to it, and threw it towards the other side. After a violent explosion, all the Earth forces on the bridge were killed.

Covering his ears, he stood up and looked at Gabriel, who was still going crazy. Damn! It seems that foreigners from any world are not very good at swearing. Their defenses are too low. If he were to argue with an old lady on the street in China, wouldn't he be scolded to tears every day?

Upon arriving at the communications control console, I noticed the somewhat damaged surface. As expected of military equipment, it was incredibly sturdy. After wiping it clean, I found the communications shutdown button and ended the piercing sound.

As he stepped out of the bridge, he saw Yuraine and a group of Earth Force soldiers approaching from the entrance and spoke loudly.

"LOGOS bribed Bonaparte's captain and others to block the Purge Agreement's extermination of humanity, but I have already killed them. I have now taken control of this place. There are three human super battleships outside, and four Purge Agreement cruisers are chasing after them."

Seeing that the soldiers around him remained unmoved and still clutching their weapons, he realized that his authority was still insufficient and turned to look at Yurain.

Yurain stated that she also had no control over the soldiers.

Why can the protagonist solve everything with just a few words, while I have to fight tooth and nail?

Then he gave a signal to provide support. People dressed in Earth military uniforms turned their guns on the people around them, and people entered the scene to control the situation.

"Are all these people from the Archangel?" Yurain asked curiously.

"You've seen people ask questions they already know the answer to before."

Yuri looked thoughtfully at the crew of the Archangel around her, seemingly lost in thought.

With all Earth Force support units under control, Minerva and Archangel arrived at the rendezvous point.

"What should we do with these Earth soldiers? Isn't our next plan to go to the Heaven Base? Will completely offending the Earth Army affect our plans?" Maru looked at the captured Earth soldiers with some worry.

"Don't worry, I won't kill them, and Natal wouldn't agree to it anyway." He glanced at the other person after saying that.

“We don’t lack manpower, but we lack weapons. If these people agree with us, we’ll take them with us. If not, we’ll send them back and hand over the combat videos and reports from the Black Sea,” Talia said, looking at the Earth soldiers in the temporary detention area.

“I’ve already sent the previous battle reports and videos to the Paradise Base, but the soldiers don’t seem to know about them. Besides, I don’t have high hopes for Blue Cosmos,” Yulein objected.

“I remember the last classic scene of being sold was the Alaskan base, which was full of Eurasian Federation soldiers, right?” Zhang Xun said, stroking his chin.

"What? You want to make a fuss about this?" Maru looked at Zhang Xun, who was starting to grin mischievously.

“Yes! Most of these soldiers are from the Eurasian Federation, and most of the soldiers who died in the Alaska campaign were their compatriots. I happen to have videos and witnesses here.” After saying that, he took the things and walked towards the temporary detention area.

He picked up a megaphone, stood on the table, and shouted, "Soldiers of the Earth Alliance, is this land I am on your homeland?!"

At this moment, the soldiers who were discussing the matter all looked over.

"You may not know me! I am Zhang Xun, a captain in the Earth Alliance Army. I'm just an unlucky guy who was temporarily drafted into the army, but I can say with my hand on my chest that I have not let down my identity as a human being in the slightest!"

Everyone gathered below, looking at Zhang Xun.

“What right do you, a defector, have to say that!” someone shouted from below.

"Defection? No! I didn't defect! You all say I defected, but tell me why I defected. Did I go to PLANT or somewhere else?"

Looking down at everyone, no one answered.

"I am a soldier and I am proud of my identity! But there are some people, or rather some organizations, who don't want us soldiers who know the truth to live! Guess why? What we know?"

The curiosity of those below was piqued.

"Some of you may know or have heard of the Battle of Alaska! Yes, I participated! And I even bought a warship for the Earth Force at my own expense to fight in the battle. Where were those defending soldiers from?"

“Most of them are soldiers from our Eurasian Federation!” a soldier said at just the right moment.

"Yes, they are all people of this land! Soldiers who guard this land, but do you know what? This battle is a complete conspiracy, a conspiracy to wipe out most of ZAFT's forces!"

Many people below frowned, as if they had guessed something.

"Sacrifice is inevitable! Soldiers can give up everything for the people behind them, but! But! Because of the greed of some people! Those useless pieces of paper! Money! They make us die without knowing the truth and without any meaning!"

"The LOGOS organization is the arms dealer behind Blue Cosmos! They exploit our wealth and the taxes we pay! They exchange our bodies and our blood for their decadent lifestyles! They leave our families to suffer from war, hunger, and separation from our loved ones! Can you agree to this?!"

"No! Get them out of here! We have guns to protect our families, not their money!" some people started shouting, but there were still some who were not so easily persuaded.

“I know some people still don’t believe me! Maru Ramias, Mu La Flaga, and Natal Bajiru are all former Earth Force soldiers, and they all participated in the Alaskan campaign!”

Then, the Alaskan underground equipment, the Cyclops system, and the situation on the ground during the launch were shown using a projection.

"We Earth soldiers are fighting for ourselves and our families! But some people don't want us to live! Because I know they know, and you know too! This is what I call defection! We were forced into it! And at this time, the alien organization Purge is going to destroy humanity! Including Earth and PLANT, they are heretics!"

He then ordered his men to pull up the wreckage of the machine infantry they had previously obtained and suspend it in the air. Everyone gasped in surprise, and the scene instantly descended into chaos.

"Quiet!" With a roar, Zhang Xun raised his hand and fired his gun.

"Look! These are the things chasing us! They wiped out a combined fleet of three forces with just 10 warships. Yes, you heard right, a combined fleet of three forces: the Earth Force's Phantom Pain Squad, ZAFT's PLANT army led by the Minerva, and the Archangel's main survivors."

Everyone below looked at Yu Rhein and the others next to Zhang Xun, as well as the Archangel and other warships outside that were not yet fully repaired.

"We have failed! The vast majority of our soldiers and ships have been wiped out. We only managed to destroy 6 enemy warships, and those were a weary force that had fought their way in from the north! The enemy fleet had no supplies! We did our best, but our warships were destroyed and we ran out of ammunition, so we had no choice but to take refuge in the port of Targius in ZAFT."

"Using the ZAFT soldiers and defenses there, we quickly repaired and escaped, leaving the ZAFT garrison to delay the enemy. We wanted to regroup at the Gibraltar base and then launch another counterattack, but Blue Cosmos and LOGOS betrayed us, trying to shut us up and keep us here forever."

As he spoke, Zhang Xun wiped away his tears, feeling quite moved.

"Do you think we'd agree?! Do you think we'd agree after you found out?!" Zhang Xun, standing on the table, raised his right hand diagonally upwards and roared angrily.

The soldiers below also raised their right hands in salute and roared, "Disagree! Kill them!"

Upon seeing this, Mu and Yurain looked at Zhang Xun with some alarm. If this got out, the Earth Alliance would have to switch channels in no time.

"We need you! The Earth needs you! All of humanity needs you! Resist the Purge! Unite all forces to reclaim everything that belongs to us! Xihaile!" Zhang Xun roared, raising his right hand.

Everyone below raised their right hands: "Seyheller! Seyheller!"

Natal, who had been to the original universe, covered her face in disbelief. What kind of mess is this?!
