Gundam 00: Rise of China
Chapter 33 What you want is not just a change of suzerain state
Because of those in the presidential palace who are concerned about their motherland.
Wang Ye was able to travel freely to most areas of this country.
Knowing that they were about to engage in battle with the Union army, many military commanders in the bases disregarded their own stance.
They all turned a blind eye to Wang Ye, whose secret identity was that of the Revolutionary Alliance.
We absolutely dare not offend one of the three poles of this world, otherwise we would have already offended the Union and now the People's Revolutionary Alliance.
Will they survive?
Therefore... with double protection, there is basically no place in Taliban that Wang Ye cannot go.
Then, naturally, some delightful things happened.
For example, Wang Ye is currently at a military base on the front lines in Taliban.
"Major Char, will the People's Revolutionary Alliance really help us?"
A group of young, still-warm warriors surrounded Wang Ye, who was wearing a mask and helmet.
Long before Wang Ye arrived at the base, the soldiers there had already contacted him through various channels.
They learned about the promises Wang Ye made to his colleagues at other military bases.
"Yes."
Standing in the center of the crowd, Wang Ye scanned each person with his eyes, looking into the eager eyes of these young soldiers.
Wang Ye nodded emphatically, then raised his hands slightly and pressed his palms down to signal everyone to be quiet.
"I will repeat what I have said elsewhere here."
"Once you have won the normal rights that you deserve in Taliban, the United People's Revolutionary Party will recognize you as soon as possible."
"And it provided unprecedented and saturated aid to Taliban, helping Taliban become a beautiful and prosperous country."
"It really is true!"
"I knew the People's Revolutionary Alliance was different!"
"Long live the righteous People's Revolutionary League!"
Upon hearing Wang Ye's renewed promise, and comparing it with the messages from their colleagues at other bases, the soldiers at this base were immediately excited.
It seems that because of Wang Ye's words, Taliban and its people will be able to live a different life in the next second.
"Then why don't you help us now!"
However, it seems that Wang Ye has encountered a challenger at this base.
A lieutenant colonel pushed his way out of the crowd, stood in front of Wang Ye, and stared at him fiercely.
"Since the People's Revolutionary Alliance has decided to help us, why not extend a helping hand now?"
"The Union's army is right at our doorstep, while your People's Revolutionary Alliance is still on the other side of the ocean!"
"With our strength..."
At this point, the lieutenant colonel abruptly shut his mouth, his eyes twitching from the effort.
What he didn't say aloud, everyone here understood.
That is, the Taliban army on its own is simply not strong enough to fight against the Union army, and if it cannot withstand the enemy, how can it receive assistance from the United People's Revolutionary Alliance?
"In the end, your People's Revolutionary Alliance isn't genuinely helping us; you just want to use us and use us as pawns!"
As the people around him fell silent, the lieutenant colonel, who had also been silent for a while, gritted his teeth and spoke.
"Is the People's Revolutionary Alliance also going to use us?"
The lieutenant colonel's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over everyone around him, who looked at Wang Ye as he faced the lieutenant colonel's questioning.
The crowd began to whisper among themselves, and gradually their gazes toward Wang Ye softened, becoming more doubtful.
"One must try the impossible in order to achieve the possible."
"Those who strive may fail, but those who do not strive have already failed."
The questions from the lieutenant colonel did not fluster Wang Ye, or rather, these questions were already within Wang Ye's expectations.
The difference is only a matter of sooner or later, or perhaps in other places.
With a smile, Wang Ye encouraged those who held a pessimistic view.
"Fine words are useless."
Wang Ye's words caused another stir in the crowd, but the lieutenant colonel standing in front of Wang Ye maintained his firm stance.
He wanted to force Wang Ye to make a clear statement here, explaining why the real assistance from the People's Revolutionary Alliance must wait until Taliban wins back the rights it deserves from the Union.
"Do you want to go from being a puppet of the Union to a puppet of the Human Reform League?"
Taking a deep breath, Wang Ye loudly asked the question to everyone in the room.
"What?"
One sentence stirred up a huge wave of controversy. People couldn't believe that Wang Ye, who was talking about helping them one moment, was now asking if he was going to become a puppet of another great power the next.
"Are you kidding me!"
"Yeah, yeah, we don't want to be puppets!"
Immediately, the crowd became enraged, and several hot-tempered individuals clenched their fists and took two steps forward, seemingly wanting to give Wang Ye a good beating with their fists.
The lieutenant colonel was also stunned by this. He had thought that Wang Ye would beat around the bush and talk about other things, or that he would say some high-sounding words like those high-ranking officials.
But to his utter surprise, Wang Ye not only failed to defend himself but also uttered such a treasonous statement.
"Quiet!"
Holding down Anura and Piris, who were trying to protect him, Wang Ye roared and jumped to a high place.
Sunlight shone on his white, Xia-style helmet as Wang Ye waved his arms and roared.
"I'm asking you!"
"If the People's Revolutionary Alliance sends a large army now, it can drive the Union fleet away."
"And then what?"
"We fought the war, we shed the blood, but who calls the shots in Taliban then?"
"Is he your president, or our general?"
"Will you still be able to stand tall and say that we are equals then?"
"Besides, if the Union can treat you like its own backyard today, why can't the People's Revolutionary League do the same tomorrow?"
"You fight so fiercely, is it all just to gain a new suzerain state?"
A barrage of questions was thrown out, leaving the soldiers, who had been excited just moments before, speechless.
They weren't unaware of the problem; they just weren't willing to think about it deeply.
"I'll tell you another reason why the People's Revolutionary Alliance isn't sending troops now."
Seeing that the crowd had quieted down, Wang Ye's voice softened a bit more.
"Because if any of the three major powers directly intervenes, it will escalate into a brutal local war."
"At that time, your cities will be razed to the ground and your families will be displaced in Taliban, which will be the battlefield."
"The Union can afford to wait, the People's Revolutionary Alliance can afford to wait, but can you afford to wait?"
After jumping down from the height, Wang Ye walked up to the lieutenant colonel and said in a solemn tone.
"This country belongs to you, it belongs to them, but it will ultimately belong to your future children."
"Please, make sure your children are born with their backs straight!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the wind swept across the playground, stirring up the dust on the ground.
Everyone was silent; no one spoke.
Finally, the lieutenant colonel slowly opened his fist, which had been hanging at his side.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but looking at Wang Ye in front of him, all his words turned into a standard military salute.
He then pushed through the crowd again and strode towards the depths of the base.
"Then...can we really win?"
Once the lieutenant colonel had disappeared from sight, a young soldier in the field asked in a low voice, his voice trembling with tears.
"To win, that's why I came here."
After thinking carefully for a while, Wang Ye nodded affirmatively.
"And you can only win, or you will all die there, along with your descendants."
