Chapter 1760 Disposal!
He Ming ultimately decided to keep Maria Amonia alive, transferring her from the Angel Wheel to Axis, and strictly forbidding her from approaching the Angel Wheel without He Ming's orders.
The task of guarding the former Queen Zanskar naturally fell to Axis, and to the current Axis commander, Haman Kahn.
"I never expected you would let that queen live."
On the way back to the aircraft parking area, Harman glanced at He Ming's back unexpectedly and said in a low voice.
"Yes. I was surprised too, Harman."
He Ming admitted that this choice also surprised him.
“Originally, I should have killed Queen Zanskar on the spot, just like I did with those Zanskar warships. However, the situation on Earth is becoming increasingly dire. Sometimes, our conventional forces are finding it increasingly difficult to cope with the increasingly complex battlefields.”
He Ming spoke frankly about the situation on Earth.
Among He Ming's current associates, perhaps only Harman truly understands He Ming's background.
Therefore, sometimes it is the right option to lay things out on the table.
"Previously, in the Third Tokyo urban cluster, we encountered an enemy called the Angel. This enemy possesses power from the 'gods' and can render all of humanity's conventional weapons ineffective."
"In that battle, I piloted the Banshee Gundam and used the NT-D system to fight against it, achieving considerable success. However, currently, the only unit in the Earth Federation Forces that possesses the NT-D system is the Banshee Gundam."
"Moreover, as of now, I am probably the only person who can fully control the NT-D system. Even Amuro Ray, who has been heavily promoted by the Earth Federation in recent years, or Char Aznable, who was promoted as the Red Comet by Zeon during the One Year War, would probably be a bit of a stretch."
"In addition, the production of the psychoframe is extremely difficult. Even Anaheim Electronics, which has been working hard to produce it for the past few years, has only managed to complete the production of the Banshee Gundam."
"The remaining psychoframe can only be integrated into other Gundam models according to the specifications of the parts, rather than being designed and manufactured as a full-body covering like the Banshee Gundam."
Upon hearing He Ming's frank confession, Harman fell into deep thought.
During this time, Haman Kahn, who frequently traveled between Axis and the homeworld of Vajura, saw many things clearly and thus understood the true nature of the threat that He Ming was concerned about.
"The reason you left behind the Angel's Wheel and those psychics, and allowed Maria Amonia to live, is so that it could be used in battles against enemies with strange powers in the near future?"
"Yes. After all, that's tens of thousands of psycho-intelligents! According to the propaganda of the Principality of Zeon in the past, this is an entire Newtype legion capable of overturning the outcome of the war."
When the figures of Banshee Gundam and Qubeley appeared at the end of the passage, He Ming stopped and looked at Haman.
Although He Ming couldn't see Haman's face because of the mask, it didn't stop him from taking out the headbands from the storage compartment and handing them to Haman.
“I entrust these headbands to Puru. Then, the task of guarding Maria Amonia will be carried out by you and Puru.”
Harman glanced at the headband in He Ming's hand and pondered for a moment.
"Does Axis also need to stay here and guard the Angel Wheel?"
He nodded.
"Yes. This is a huge thing with a diameter of 20 kilometers. If we don't leave it here, we'll probably have to move it to the Earth-Moon sphere. But then we won't be able to hide it."
Upon hearing this, Harman took the headband from He Ming's hand and responded.
“Alright! Axis will take on this mission. However, you must guarantee Axis’s supplies. In addition, I would like to request that a professional technical team be sent to help us control the Angel Wheel. After all, that is technology from decades in the future, and the technical personnel on Axis may not be up to the task.” Seeing that Harman had agreed, He Ming reciprocated.
"I will send a fleet, or Elise, to reinforce you. If you need anything, just let me know, and I will do my best to meet your needs."
"Yes, I'll let you know if I need anything."
After glancing at the Qubeley so close to him, Harman suddenly asked a question as he returned to the cockpit.
"General, is my future...?"
He Ming paused, remained silent for a moment, and then answered.
"When the world undergoes dramatic changes, everyone's fate is irreversibly altered. The history known to the Zanskar Empire is only of some value as a reference, not an unchangeable future."
"Is that so? Then I understand, General."
Accompanied by two Qubeleys, Banshee Gundam flew out of Angel Wheel and rendezvoused with the Goldland, which was gathering its forces and sending reinforcements to clean up the battlefield.
Looking around, He Ming discovered that the Zanskar Empire's fleet had indeed been completely destroyed, just as Maria Amonia had said.
The remaining mobile suits either surrendered or were suppressed by the increasing number of Federation mobile suit units and Axis mobile suit units, becoming mere sparks punctuating the near-end of the battle.
"We were fortunate to have Axis's involvement in this battle. Otherwise, we would have paid a heavy price to win it."
He Ming expressed his gratitude when he extended an invitation to Harman Kahn to land on the Judgment together.
"No. It's all thanks to the general, no, it's all thanks to Colonel Ming's battle plan."
Upon seeing that the Banshee Gundam had landed on the Judgment, Haman changed his address to He Ming.
"It's your achievement, and that's your achievement! No one can change that."
As soon as He Ming stepped out of the cockpit of the Banshee Gundam, he saw Tianm and the others waiting for his return in the hangar.
"General Tiam, shouldn't you be directing the entire operation now and eliminating the remaining enemy forces?"
He Ming said jokingly.
Tianm shook his head and said.
"Colonel Ming, you've already taken care of the most difficult thing. Now, the men know what to do."
As they were talking, Tianm also noticed Qubeley, who landed on the Judgment shortly afterward.
"The MS of Axis's governor, Haman Kahn? Colonel Ming, perhaps we can stop worrying about some things."
Witnessing Axis's stunning attack, Tiam's horizons seemed to have been opened, and he became somewhat restless.
“No, General Tiam. I advise you to calm down. Axis needs to stay here to guard the Angel's Wheel. As it stands, it's a hot potato.”
