Machine War: Starting from Gundam OO

Chapter 1626 This is not a negotiation, but a request for the Promise and Platinum Steel Dragon
Unlike the Platinum, Steel Dragon and Black Gold, the Promise did not head to Europe immediately after the battle in the L5 space domain. Because of a communication, Yang Hui temporarily changed the route and headed to the Izu base.

"It seems that you have made a decision, President Shiyun."

That’s right. Orlando Ziyun contacted the Promise Corps immediately after the battle in the L5 Universe and asked to meet with Yang Hui. It seems that although Orlando Ziyun seems to be living a low-key life with his identity hidden, he is still very concerned about major events happening in the world, and...

"But I didn't expect that you actually planted people in the Earth Federation and DC. It's amazing that even our intelligence department couldn't find it."

Apart from the existence of a spy inside, Yang Hui could not think of a second possibility. The White Star attack on the L5 space domain was not intended to be kept secret. After the victory, the victory results and some battle records of the war would definitely be announced. This was a sharp weapon for inspiring people.

But how did Orlando Ziyun know the news of Promise's victory before it was made public? And it was not just a news with a title. The destruction of BETA nests around the world did not make Ziyun Orlando move, and the expulsion of the [weapons dealers] and [visitors] hiding in Africa did not make him move. The full retreat of the [supervisors] was still as stable as a rock. It was not until [White Star] was captured that Orlando Ziyun immediately asked for a meeting. He must have known some details of the battle, such as how [White Star] was easily captured.

To be able to know this information before the official announcement, unless Orlando Ziyun possesses a superpower similar to "Clairvoyance", it is only possible that he has spies within the Earth Federation or DC.

"No offense, Mr. Yang Hui. Our original intention was just to survive in a low profile. Moreover, we live in the same environment, so we should always pay attention to our common living environment." Orlando Ziyun had already started sweating. He didn't expect that because of his own little negligence, he would expose the spies who had been planted in the Earth Federation and DC a long time ago.

The reason why these spies have never been exposed is, on the one hand, because they are all elite spies of Free with outstanding professional abilities, and on the other hand, because Orlando Ziyun only requires them to keep an eye on major internal changes and does not require them to provide any confidential intelligence.

Everything could have gone on peacefully, but now... it's exposed.

"Well, I agree with what President Ziyun said, but your performance does not seem very sincere." Yang Hui shook his head and said with a playful smile on his face.

"What do you mean? Sir Yang Hui, I came here with sincerity. Her Majesty the Queen also attaches great importance to the cooperation between the two sides. She asked me to do my best to promote the achievement of this cooperation." For some reason, looking at Yang Hui's smile, alarm bells rang in Orlando Ziyun's mind and he became inexplicably nervous.

"Since we are discussing cooperation, we have to discuss the price. Although I have quoted a price before, now... thank you." Yang Hui paused for a moment, and You Lin placed two cups of tea in front of them. Yang Hui took a sip, and then continued to say to Orlando Ziyun, "...The market changes too much, so the price... will naturally change as well."

"..." Orlando Ziyun's heart tightened, he knew that this matter was going to be bad. The last time they met, the price Yang Hui offered was so generous that it was simply charity. But Orlando Ziyun had no intention of agreeing to it at the time. After all, in his opinion, it was problematic no matter how you looked at it that such a powerful foreign force started doing charity as soon as they met.

However, Orlando Ziyun did not completely deny the intention of reaching a cooperation, and reported the matter to Her Majesty the Queen of Free, who made the final decision. Her Majesty the Queen shared the same opinion as Orlando Ziyun, and felt that the purpose of the Promise Corps was very suspicious, but she was more anxious than Orlando Ziyun, because Free's situation really could not be delayed any longer, so she let Orlando Ziyun delay, neither agreeing nor refusing, and observe the Promise Corps again, and choose the right time to discuss again.

The idea was good, but they underestimated the efficiency of the Promise Legion. They didn't expect that before long, the BETA on Earth were defeated and only the European area was left. The BETA in the universe were killed to pieces and had to retreat to Europe.

On the side of the Alliance, the [weapons dealers] and [visitors] were captured and killed, leaving no one behind. The last [supervisor] took the initiative to retreat and returned to the universe, giving up the occupied area of ​​​​the earth.

The Balma Empire was in an even worse situation. Not only were all the [Void Messengers] on the periphery wiped out, but even the mobile fortress [White Star] that invaded the Earth was easily taken down without any damage.

Too much information flooded Orlando Ziyun's brain. Before he could react, the Promith Legion had almost taken control of the Earth-Moon system and even the entire solar system. This made Orlando Ziyun completely unable to sit still. Without even asking Her Majesty the Queen, he directly requested to discuss cooperation with Yang Hui.

However, this approach naturally could not win the favor of the Promise Legion, and even eroded some of the original goodwill. This was all within Orlando Ziyun's expectations.

What really made him cry out in dismay was that Freeh could not come up with any valuable bargaining chips, except for the royal machine that only people of royal blood could drive from generation to generation. That was a treasure that could never be handed over. It was Freeh's real trump card. Once the royal machine was handed over, Freeh would be a lamb to be slaughtered.

"What's wrong? President Ziyun, are you feeling unwell?" Yang Hui looked at Orlando Ziyun, who was sweating profusely, and his smile became even more playful.

"I'm sorry to have worried you, Mr. Yang Hui. I'm fine." Orlando Ziyun wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and calmed himself down. "So what do you want?"

"Well... to be honest, I am a little disappointed, President Ziyun." Yang Hui did not directly answer Orlando Ziyun's question, but said in a roundabout way, "Originally, we came here with goodwill and sincerity, and we really wanted to help Free overcome the difficulties. I have also experienced countless wars, and I know that war will not bring any good. Peaceful coexistence is the right way. But you misunderstood our good intentions, and... this kind of fence-sitting behavior, I guess no one likes it? Then President Ziyun, if the price I proposed before is still valid, what do you think Free... can give?"

"This..." To be honest, Orlando Ziyun couldn't figure it out. The other party had almost fundamentally solved the survival problem of Free's civilization. So what equivalent chips could Free, which was on the verge of extinction, come up with to exchange... except himself! "Sir Yang Hui! You..."

"It seems you have thought of it?" Yang Hui retracted his smile, his eyes were full of deterrence, and his heavy momentum pressed on Orlando Ziyun, showing the temperament of the commander-in-chief of the legion to the fullest. "I want Free, all of it. This is not a request, nor a negotiation, but a final notice. Either you surrender voluntarily, or we will beat you down."
