Legend of Infinite Mecha
Chapter 126: Evil in this world
The New European Union-AEU has begun to act.
The so-called AEU is a national organization evolved from the development of the old European Union. Since the Industrial Revolution in the nineteenth century, these countries, which have often been the world’s attention as the pioneers of human culture and civilization, have only blindly joined forces with other nations such as the Alliance for Human Innovation in the past few decades.
The main reason is that the rail elevator, which is the core of the centripetal force between national organizations, was built too slowly. When other national organizations have ushered in the 10th anniversary of solar power transmission, the rail elevators belonging to AEU have not yet been able to achieve full capacity operation-and this is the urgent need for the AEU parliament.
If the construction of the orbital elevator is still as slow as it is now, then the next-generation space development plan, which is already imminent, led by the construction of the space colony, will also lag far behind. In this way. In the coming era of space development, he will also become a backward country. And this. Whether it is because of their self-esteem or because of economic growth considerations, it is unacceptable for AEU.
For this reason, they plan to cause some waves in the current situation. In the process of universe development. The enhancement of military power is indispensable. This is not only a self-defense ability for the country to face the sabotage work of other countries or national organizations against its own space development, but also to claim its own right to speak and other rights to other countries or national organizations after the development work is completed. A strong backing undoubtedly plays an important role in the political wrestling of both soft and hard.
However, in order to achieve this goal, as a rigid indicator to measure the strength of military power-the enhancement of military strength is essential. To this end, AEU has launched a large-scale military cooperation with Moralia, a small country located in southern Europe.
The Republic of Moralia is not a country that has attracted much attention in the world economy.
The population is about 180,000, with a small area and poor resources.
But this country has an advantage that can fully compensate for these shortcomings, and that is its military industry. Currently, there are foreign workers who are dozens of times more than their national population living in the country. Among the 4,000 private enterprises, more than 20% are private military enterprises known as PMC (Private Military Company).
In other words, Moralia is a country that relies on war as the backbone of its economy. As long as there are still disputes and civil strife in the world, one's own economy can continue to grow. However, recently with the emergence of the Celestial Organization, the demand for the military industry has dropped sharply.
Just when Moralia's economy fell into crisis. AEU reached out to it. The Republic of Moralia, which is doing everything possible to rejuvenate the economy, and the AEU, which is eager to acquire the military and technical forces necessary for space development, hit it off with each other in terms of their interests, and immediately concluded a comprehensive cooperative relationship.
In this regard, a military enhancement plan jointly formulated by the Republic of Moralia and AEU, under the banner of joint exercises. Start to put it into practice.
PMC-a civilian military industry enterprise supports the economy of the Republic of Moralia. More than 800 military-related enterprises are responsible for the dispatching of mercenaries, training of soldiers, maintenance of the army, and weapon development, and they are operating and developing war as a business.
At this time, Ali El Saches. A mercenary belonging to this kind of PMC was screaming at the satellite phone in hand.
"What do you mean, ah?!"
This rugged face is sharp and angular, with long red hair and a beard of the same color that has not been shaved for many days. Through the T-shirt, a large tattoo can be vaguely seen on the left shoulder. His look angry on the phone. Just like a mad red-haired lion.
"Brothers came all the way to a place like South Africa where birds don’t shit, you are telling me that the civil war has entered an indefinite ceasefire. The commission has been cancelled? What international jokes are you making?! Playing us like monkeys?!"
This is a mining site for mineral resources in South Africa. With Gundam’s intervention in this civil war over mining rights, mining of minerals has now ceased. The civil war also entered a state of truce. Only the ground riddled with holes, the excavation equipment that was destroyed and discarded on the site, as well as the traces left by the people involved in the action can be seen everywhere.
At the corner of this almost ruined mine, PMC's mercenary Ali El Saches led his mobile suit team just arrived. As reinforcements sent here after accepting the commission of the civil war, they unfortunately received news from the headquarters that the commission had been cancelled because the civil war had stopped due to Gundam's intervention before they arrived.
Behind Sarches, who was yelling at the phone, some of his mercenaries lay on the ground playing with the wrench in their hands, and some leaned against the broken wall. Tilted his head and listened to his words.
"How can I understand? Huh? Anyway, I still rely on fighting and eating! Don't you think that the great distance sent me over, everything is ready, just waiting for the battlefield, because the war is over, The commission is cancelled. Let's not put any farts, and go back obediently with our tails in between? If this continues, PMC will be finished! Moralia will collapse too!"
However, after listening to the other party's response quietly for a while, Sarches suddenly calmed down and replied softly.
"...I got it. Go back to headquarters immediately."
After speaking, Sarches cut off the phone. The intense emotion just disappeared like a joke.
"Captain, what did the headquarters say?"
Hearing the subordinate's inquiry, Sarches gave a cold smile.
"The dull AEU finally started to move."
Seeing the captain's smile, the subordinates also showed weird smiles. What the captain was thinking at this time, the subordinates who had followed him for so many years had already understood.
The captain found another battlefield. And the opponent is also quite a tricky guy. The bigger the battlefield, the happier the captain will be.
Annihilation battles, blitz battles, defensive battles, siege battles, and retreat battles-no matter how the battle is good or bad, this guy will happily rush to the battlefield, relying on his strength and wisdom to change the balance of victory.
If it is an ordinary person, he must avoid such a chaotic captain. However, no matter what kind of battlefield the Sarches forces suffered, the losses suffered were very slight. Even the mob-style mobile suit piloted by the captain alone has set a record of destroying twelve enemy mobile suits in a battle. In addition, Sarches never asked his subordinates to observe morality on the battlefield. Massacre, robbery, and violence, as long as you survive, you can do whatever you want.
Therefore, no matter whether it is dangerous or not, the subordinates who follow Sarches can always get great pleasure from the war. What's more, if you are afraid of danger, you won't choose the profession of mercenary from the beginning.
In this way, within a few years, the mobile suit squad led by Sarches has become the premier mercenary unit in the PMC headquarters. However, in the mercenary roster that PMC belongs to, the name of the Sarches team cannot be found. They who acted too lawlessly have undoubtedly become a secret killer of PMC.
It has been a long time since the contact with PMC, but Sarches is still in a good mood.
"AEU and Moralia's joint exercise. In other words, those guys should also have a reason to appear. Those guys who are talking about eradicating wars, what kind of gods are called..."
