General Gop of the Federal Headquarters!
Chapter 1650 General Gop of the Federal Headquarters!
"This is a resounding victory, gentlemen."
(Yarasso Gop)
After watching the video recording accompanying the operational report from the Second Tokyo Metropolitan Area, General Gopp smiled and said...
The Earth Federation (UC) generals sitting behind him exchanged glances, but remained silent.
General Gop, seemingly having anticipated this, stood up and turned his head slightly to look at the Earth Federation (UC) generals sitting behind him.
"What's wrong? Is the opponent's record too amazing? Or do you think you're really incompetent?"
General Gop's words left the other generals speechless.
The troops recorded in this video are from the fleet led by Rebil and Tiam.
It was truly astonishing that Reibir and Tiam, who had been living in space since the end of the One Year War, were still able to cultivate such a mobile suit force.
This unit had never fought any battles on Earth before, yet it displayed such formidable combat power during its first landing on the planet, which both surprised and ashamed them.
"Gentlemen, there is no need to feel ashamed! After all, you are facing a completely new enemy, a completely new battlefield, and a completely new world. The reason why the fleets led by Rebil and Tiam are able to have such strong combat power is because they can react in time and adapt to this world as quickly as possible."
General Gop turned around, looking at the golden-horned, black-armored mech that flashed across the screen, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"Furthermore, the intelligence we have regarding BETA was personally handed over to headquarters by General Rebil. Therefore, upon your return, you must thoroughly study this intelligence as soon as possible."
General Gop thought for a moment, then turned to look at the many generals behind him.
"According to General Rebil, if we have this intelligence and can make targeted tactical arrangements to deal with these insects from another world on the battlefield, we can seize victory."
"Yes, General Gop!"
The generals responded in unison.
General Gop nodded slowly, and then spoke.
"Furthermore, regarding the arrangements after the recapture of the Second Tokyo urban area, you need to send a troop to be stationed there and do your utmost to assist local authorities in rebuilding the city and reassuring the public."
No one would be surprised by this.
After all, the toughest nuts to crack had already been dealt with by the fleets led by Reibir and Tiam.
The remaining task was to send people to garrison the area, mop up the remaining enemies, and let his own men get used to fighting those insects.
Seeing that no one objected, Gop narrowed his eyes slightly, looked around, and said slowly.
"Finally, in view of the current changes in the situation, as well as the many practical difficulties such as the possibility of another space disaster in the future and the invasion of otherworldly enemies it may induce, General Rebil submitted an application to headquarters."
"General Gopp. What is the purpose of this application?"
A brigadier general sitting in the back stood up and asked.
Gop looked over and, upon recognizing him as a key member of the General Staff under his command, nodded slightly.
"Yes. General Rebil recommended that headquarters approve the formation of a special force by Colonel Ming, with independent authority to act freely according to the battlefield situation."
"Colonel Ming? Who is that?"
"I've never heard of this person!"
"That's right! Logically speaking, he's already a colonel. How come we haven't even heard of him?"
Gop's words immediately aroused doubt among many generals. According to the military rank system, a colonel was already halfway to becoming a general.
Such a person could never be an unknown individual.
However, if Gop hadn't mentioned it today, none of the generals present would have heard of this name.
"This is an outstanding individual who was jointly nominated and promoted by Generals Rebil and Tiam. His abilities are beyond question."
Looking at the generals before him who were all showing doubt, a hint of pleasure flashed in General Gop's eyes.
Although neither Rebil nor Tianm explicitly revealed the Colonel's true identity, who exactly is Gop?
In the original timeline, among the many Earth Federation (UC) generals who emerged from the One Year War, only Arasso Gop stood firm through the conflicts of the original timeline's history, including the One Year War, the Delaz Rebellion, the establishment of the Titans and the subsequent Great War with the Dark Valley, the First Neo Zeon War, and the Second Neo Zeon War.
How could someone like him not realize the truth behind Rebil and Tianm's cover-up, which was not a cover-up at all?
"Colonel Ming. Just like in that war, he appeared in the night sky like a shooting star, making the world marvel at the brilliance he burst forth in an instant."
When Gop saw the information sent by Rebil and Tiam, he immediately realized that this "Colonel Ming" was actually the "Black Wing" He Ming, who had made a name for himself in the One Year War.
With his back to the continuously playing battle video, General Gop said in a deep voice.
"Gentlemen, if you have any objections, I suggest you first achieve some victories before questioning General Rebil and General Tiam's applications."
"If you all can come before me with brilliant victories, I guarantee that I will submit an application for the establishment of a special force on your behalf in the name of the General Staff."
Upon hearing Gop's almost confrontational words, the generals, though somewhat unwilling and even more doubtful, chose to acquiesce.
Ultimately, in the military, might makes right!
If, on this basis, one can also achieve a record that leaves no room for argument, then all dissent will vanish on the spot.
"Then, the applications of Generals Rebil and Tiam are approved! Next, we will decide how to form this force based on the situation. So, please return! I look forward to seeing you all, like Colonel Ming, contribute new victories to the Earth Federation and to humanity!"
The meeting concluded under the chairmanship of Gop.
The details of the meeting, along with the approval for the special forces, were sent to Rebil by Gop.
Between the lines of the report, Rebil could clearly see Gop's smiling old face, which infuriated him.
"Tianm. Look, that old bastard Gop has clearly seen through Colonel Ming's true identity, yet he's still hypocritically sending a commendation in the name of the Earth Federation Forces General Staff!"
Tianm took the report, glanced at it, and shook his head helplessly.
"I'm afraid General Gop is also waiting for such an opportunity."
"wait?"
Rebil's eyes flashed, and he fell into deep thought.
"Yes! It is often said that General Gop is an incompetent person, but you, who have known him for decades, may understand what kind of person General Gop really is."
Tianm placed the report back to Rebil's side and said slowly.
Upon hearing this, Rebil let out a long sigh.
"Perhaps! That old fellow has always been the most composed. Tianm, forward this report to Colonel Ming. Also, prepare to receive our distinguished guests on their journey to the moon to reunite with their families!"
"it is good!"
