Chapter 42 The choice of a finger
The Yoshoya Base in Alaska should have been the most harshly guarded place on the entire earth, but in fact, the entire base has long been empty. Even if some soldiers left occasionally are just service personnel at the bottom, they have no idea about the current situation. //The fastest update //They are just abandoned children-
The more you walk inside, the more empty it becomes, until you enter the zhongyang command room, there is no one inside.
"It's indeed the 'Cyclops' system?" After doing a few moves on the computer in the command room, Xiaofeng easily entered the relevant page.
"You shouldn't come here, Admiral Yeyue, leave quickly with Hoshino."
"I won't leave!" Hoshino Liuri said stubbornly. She, who should have been the supreme commander of the fleet, left the main ship and came here privately. It is hard to imagine that this is something an admiral would do. But that's right. Since the real purpose of the Earth Army is to lure Zaft into here, it is meaningless whether there is an admiral or not. The senior management may rather hope that Liuri's fleet will collapse sooner.
Xiaofeng also had no idea of leaving. At this time, she was seriously working on the computer. The main interface was locked, but such locking was not too much trouble for her.
"What are you going to do, Admiral Yeyue? It will detonate at any time..."
"I know, this is exactly what I'm doing," Xiaofeng said calmly, not seeming to know what he said means, "I want to stop the 'Cyclops' and never let it detonate!"
Bafodo was startled, and even Hoshino Liuri looked at Xiaofeng in surprise. Although Liuri wanted to let General Bafodo leave, she did not think about stopping the Cyclops. Although they were angry because the Earth Army, or Blue Cosmo, deliberately used Madinetz as bait, this combat plan itself was not necessarily wrong. If it was carried out smoothly, it would be very likely to achieve brilliant results.
At this time, Xiaofeng wanted to stop him, not to disobey military orders, such behavior was enough to be regarded as a rebellion.
"Do you know what you're doing?"
"Of course I know!" Compared to the sound of Bafodo's surprise, Xiao Feng's answer was not weak at all. "On the contrary, General, do you really know what this means?"
The brilliant results of war are indeed what every soldier pursues. The battlefield is a strange place, where all values will collapse. Depriving others of their lives is the deepest sin, but on the battlefield it is Guan Rong.
"Kill the coordinator... From the position of the Earth Army, I cannot refute it, because even my own hands are already covered with the blood of the coordinator." Although it was not voluntary, the coordinators who died before the Sodebrega were killed just by the battle. They can be said to have died directly at Xiao Feng's hands. There is no morality in the war between races. "But, General Bafford, can he do nothing for the sake of the results of the battle? Just a button is a light, it will cause hundreds of thousands of casualties. This is not a war, but a massacre. The weapons of mass destruction are powers used for deterrence, and should not be put into use."
The 'Cyclops' is a mass destruction weapon, and is banned internationally, like a nuclear bomb.
We can maintain nuclear bombs as a nuclear threat and strive for international status, but such weapons should never be used as actual combat, otherwise it is not just a matter of victory or defeat of a war. One can drop nuclear bombs to other countries, and the other side will inevitably fight back. Once the chain of revenge is weaved, even the human world will be destroyed.
"However, Admiral Yeyue, although he was unwilling to admit it, the Earth Army has gradually fallen into weakness once Alaska is taken away, where should the Earth Army go? We have no way out..."
"Even so, General, do you think the victory of the Earth Army is really so important?"
"What?" Barford stared in surprise, as if he did not understand the meaning of the question.
"'War can only end with victory, otherwise it will be meaningless', I heard Speaker Patrick of Plant say this. Do you think so too? But I think some things are more important than the outcome of the war itself!"
"More important than victory or defeat?" Bafodo repeated Xiao Feng's words in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking for a moment.
On the home screen of the base, layers of defense were useless between Xiaofeng's fingers, and soon invaded the core program of the "Cyclops". It was a remote control trigger program. The command end of the base has been locked. If ordinary programmers were faced with such a situation, they might be helpless, but this did not include Xiaofeng.
"Admiral Yeyue, are you sure you want to do this?" Seeing Xiaofeng break through the layers of defense at an incredible speed and easily take away his authority, Bafo said in a complicated way.
"'Whether it is a coordinator or a natural person, they are all life born in this world, and cannot be blinded by jealousy, hatred and killing', General, have you forgotten? This is what you said in your own words in the past."
Bafodo was shocked. He did forget that he was getting deeper and deeper in the war between natural persons and coordinators. Because he was a natural person, the Earth Army had to win, otherwise it would be treason. Since when did he start to think so? The Earth Army's victory was the only way out, and he even used taboo weapons for this. What is the difference between this and the Blue Cosmos?
Xiaofeng knew that she was out of place with this world. Renoah's words were facts. She was not a coordinator, but she was not a natural person. Because of this, she could not empathize with the hatred between the two sides. For her, she was just a choice before entering this world. She chose the Earth Army camp and became the admiral of the Earth United. Similarly, if she chose the Zaft camp, she would not have been surprised to wear Zaft military uniform and might have even entered the highest review board.
It is precisely because it is just a simple choice without any pressure for her that she certainly cannot experience the hatred between the two sides, but some things remain unchanged.
"Everyone has the seed of hope, whether it is a natural person or a coordinator. I trust ‘seed’ and am proud of the concept of this organization. Do you no longer trust its concept?"
Compared with the victory of the Earth Army, stopping war should be more important. Taboo weapons cannot stop war, but they can only deepen hatred. The detonation of the "Cyclops" was replaced by the massacre of the "Odin's Gun", then the counterattack of the nuclear bomb group, and finally Genesis. Everyone has their own reasons, under the banner of revenge, but this is really the hope of the people? No, this is just that the will of the people was kidnapped by the top military leaders of both sides. For ordinary people, living with food and clothing is happiness. The so-called righteousness is just a fig leaf for the power to turn the world in the face of the basic interests of the people.
The failure of the Earth Army was just the coordinator's autonomy and equal trade rights. Zaft's failure was just to bring everything back to the mode before the war, and no matter which result was much better than the nuclear bomb group and Genesis. But it was precisely because the senior leaders of both the Earth Army and Zaft had the idea that "the war must be won, otherwise it would be meaningless" that everything was trapped in an endless spiral.
Xiaofeng had stopped the computer's work and used superpowers. She seized the core permissions of the "Cyclops" in an impossible situation. A string of codes was entered into the computer, and the system would be terminated as long as the last "input key" system was terminated.
Xiaofeng stood up, saluted General Bafford, and then stepped back from the front of the computer, "As long as you confirm that you enter 'Cyclops', it will be terminated. If you delete this string of codes, the script of Blue Cosmos will be staged as scheduled. You are the supreme commander here, and the final choice is left to you, Commander!"
"You girl..." Bafodo shook his head with a wry smile. He didn't expect that one day he would be forced to this point by his subordinates, but this was indeed a choice that he could not escape, and it was also a difficult choice.
Once he chooses to stop the 'Cyclops', zaft's invasion cannot be stopped. The headquarters of the Earth Army was occupied by zaft, and this war is likely to end with the failure of the Earth Army; on the contrary, zaft will be severely damaged. With the forces they have invested now, once the entire army is wiped out, whether it is the Mediterranean front, the African front, or even Australia, they are unable to guard it, so the coordinator will withdraw from the Earth Circle.
Everything depends only on one finger at this time. It seems that all fate is betting on this finger, but Bafodo cannot feel the pride of indulging in all the passion.
"As the supreme commander of this battle, my responsibility is to defeat Zaft and lead the Earth Army to victory." Barford murmured, not knowing whether to convince Xiaofeng or to comfort him, "but, as a human who claims to be the spirit of all things, I think we should at least maintain our last sanity and respect for life, rather than the executioner of the massacre."
Xiaofeng breathed a deep sigh of relief because Bafodo finally pressed the confirmation key. After the code was entered, the "Cyclops" was locked and there was no possibility of activation again.
"You guys leave first." After doing all this, Bafodo seemed to have grown up ten years old.
"What about you?"
"I still have something to do. Since the invasion of zaft is inevitable, at least some things must be destroyed before this, otherwise it will be evidence of guilt. I think since the Sodebrega is here, it will be at least half an hour, right?"
Xiao Feng nodded clearly. Although the Cyclops stopped, the instruments themselves were still underground. If they were discovered by Zaft, they would inevitably become evidence of the Earth Army. As a senior executive of the Earth Army, Bafodo, of course, would not let these things happen. Next, they must be destroyed before Zaft seized the base. The fewer people know about these things, the better. Of course, others cannot be allowed to do it.
With Sodebrega's joining, it's not difficult to fight for half an hour.
"I understand, then we will wait for you to come back on the aircraft carrier." Xiaofeng and Liuli looked at each other, and they saluted Bafodo together.
"It's time to go back," Bafford looked north, as if he saw the other end of the distant earth through the steel deck of the base, "Go back to the Arctic base."
Can the world, which is isolated from the snow in the world, be far away from the sins of the world?
