Artesia's Plan!
Chapter 1726 Artesia's Plan!
Muzo, Prime Minister's Office.
In the lavishly decorated office, exuding a European aristocratic style, more than ten important figures from various industries in Muzo, dressed in formal attire, stood solemnly in front of a desk piled high with documents, barely daring to breathe, silently awaiting the words of the graceful figure flipping through the files.
On the other side of the desk, Ramba Ralph and his wife Crowley Harmon were also watching the bigwigs' every move.
Whether it was the beautiful figure silently flipping through documents or the gaze of the Lamba Lal couple, both made these important figures from all walks of life in Muzo feel immense pressure.
"Lamba. Take these documents away! I've read them all. Proceed according to the original plan. Also, have those Gauzagu been repaired?"
Artesia closed the document in her hand and handed it to Ramba Ral while asking about the current status of the few High Zakus that he had deliberately held back in the previous battle, only causing damage to their cockpits.
"Yes, Miss, we have already arranged for people to repair it. However, due to our limited technical capabilities, we are afraid that Gao Zagu will not be able to unleash its full potential."
"It's alright. Being able to participate in the upcoming defensive battle is enough."
Artesia didn't care about that.
She only hoped that when she and SV52 went out to work, someone would take good care of Muzo's hometown.
"Yes! There's no problem at all if we just stick to Muzo!"
Ramba Lal answered decisively.
“Very good! Well then, let’s hurry. Those lunatics of Zanskar won’t be leisurely strolling over here.”
"understand!"
Lamba Lal responded again, glanced sharply at the crowd, and then strode out of the office.
As the door closed in on Ramba Lal, Artesia looked up at the important figures who had been waiting at her desk.
"Gentlemen, I apologize for keeping you waiting. The reason I called you all here today is not for anything else, but to help Muzo and Side3 withstand this crisis."
"Although I haven't stayed in Muzo all these years, let's get straight to the point!"
"I hope that you will all support me and help me complete a plan in the days to come."
Artesia's straightforwardness immediately moved these important figures.
Some were excited, some were puzzled, and some remained silent, but Artesia keenly sensed a barely perceptible hint of disdain that flashed deep in the eyes of those who remained silent.
Artesia witnessed all of this.
"Please rest assured, everyone. This plan is not to repeat the Zabi family's conspiracy, but to help Muzo, and SIDE3, to move towards a new world and get out of their current predicament. The first step of this plan is to get Muzo out of the threat of the Zanskar Empire and make contact with the Earth Federation, or to be precise, with the Punishment Force."
Artesia calmly outlined the first step of the plan.
"Punishment?!"
Upon hearing the name of the punishment, the crowd immediately began to murmur among themselves.
Since the Punishment Squad successfully suppressed the BETA that emerged from the dimensional quake and recaptured the fallen city, the Earth Federation Forces have been promoting the achievements of this special unit. Even within Side 3, rumors related to the Punishment Squad have been circulating. "Lady Artesia, how can we contact the Punishment Squad? We currently have no influential friends within the Earth Federation Forces. Besides, although the Punishment Squad has a renowned reputation, they seem to be operating primarily on Earth."
A middle-aged man in a suit with a neatly combed slicked-back hairstyle stepped forward and spoke respectfully.
Artesia recognized the man.
This is Muzo and one of the major businessmen in Side 3. His business network not only spans various colonies, but also wields considerable influence in the business world on Earth.
Even such a person stated that he could no longer contact the Punishment Force.
The others, of course, need not be mentioned.
However, despite their immense wealth and influence in various industries, these people never discovered the true source of Artesia's confidence.
She didn't need to go through anyone to contact the penal forces.
All she needed to do was release information about her existence and Muzo's current predicament, and she would naturally make contact with the Punishment Force.
Next, what Artesia needs to do is to hold onto her base and prevent those madmen of the Zanskar Empire from taking over SIDE3 and Muzo.
"You need not worry about how to contact the Punishment Sect! You only need to prepare to support us during this time! As for other matters related to the battle, you can leave them to us."
Artesia offered a conclusion that left everyone looking at each other, unable to give a definitive answer.
Artesia wasn't in a hurry; instead, she opened a new document and continued reviewing it.
After the deaths of the prime minister and his son in the Republic of Zeon, no new prime minister election was held. However, in reality, the power center of the Republic of Zeon unanimously accepted the power of Artesia, the daughter of Deikun.
Even when Artesia sat in the Prime Minister's office, issuing orders to everyone, no one stepped forward to criticize Daken's daughter.
After a long while, once Artesia had finished dealing with the defense arrangements around Muzo, the crowd finally reached a basic consensus.
"Lady Artesia, we are willing to support your plan!"
"Very good! Then, everyone, let's proceed according to the quotas outlined in this plan! What follows is a fierce battle, but please believe that this will be the first ray of dawn after Muzo's darkest hour!"
After glancing at the crowd, whose expressions varied but who had reached a consensus, Artesia instructed Crowley Harmon, who was standing nearby, to take a stack of documents from a nearby cabinet and distribute them to the important figures present.
"this···"
It was that same businessman with the slicked-back hair.
He opened the document and his pupils contracted instantly, his expression becoming even more fascinating.
Because the documents in their hands were not business plans, but a blatant military expansion plan!
Since the One Year War, Muzo, who was stripped of his military power and retained only the security department, is once again facing a moment of military expansion.
"Gentlemen, this is not about reviving the Zabi family's ambitions! Rather, it is about ensuring that Muzo has the ability to protect himself in the years to come, and that Side 3 must participate in this war that concerns the future of humanity."
"Let us act as participants in this war, actively engaging in it and opening up new possibilities for the future!"
