Chapter 142: Bartfield's Resolution
After Wang Hu and the other two men disappeared completely, Bartfield stopped Martin's suggestion to send people to pursue them.

Afterwards, seeing that he couldn't chase Wang Hu and the others, Martin didn't say much.

He then began to arrange soldiers to conduct a thorough sweep of the entire mansion one by one, in order to find all possible bombs.

"Andy." Seeing Martin and the others retreat, Aisha walked up and shook the hand of Bartfield, who must be in a bad mood.

"Don't think too much. Facing the situation just now, your decision is the right one."

"I know."

Staring blankly at the direction where Wang Hu and the others disappeared, after half a cup of tea, Bartfield smiled with relief.

"Andy?" Seeing this, Elsa called out her lover's nickname. She was a little worried about his mental state.

"Hope?" Shaking his head, Bartfield exhaled a breath of foul air.

"It's really something that only East Asians can believe."

"So what do you want?" Aisha, who knew her partner well, had her eyes lit up. She knew how much Bartfield hated war.

After hearing Wang Hu's plan just now, she actually wanted to join in more than Bartfield.

Just because such a world has come, my loved ones will no longer suffer.

Patting Aisha's hand gently, Bartfield understood Aisha as well as Aisha understood himself.

"No." He shook his head and said something that made Aisha confused.

"Why?" Aisha asked immediately. It was obvious that Wang Hu's suggestion was feasible.

"I am now a soldier of ZAFT, so I must fight for the overall interests of PLANT."

"It's nothing to do with anything else, it's just because I'm in this position."

Bartfield walked to the fireplace and picked up a cup of cold coffee. He sniffed the aroma of the coffee in the cup deeply.

"Besides, the plan Wang Hu mentioned is just a plan after all. Whether it will succeed or not is still uncertain."

"Moreover, if there is a mistake in any of the links, it will lead to the failure of the entire plan. The biggest failure link is Wang Hu's identity."

"What are the chances that a plan proposed by a soldier will be approved by the higher-ups?"

"He tried to resolve the conflicts among human beings through the infinite universe, but even with today's technological power."

"It would take a long time to travel back and forth between Mars and Earth, not to mention the development of outer space."

"It's scary to think how much it will cost, and there will be almost no benefits in the early stages."

"The biggest challenge with this kind of plan is not the investment, but the time and patience required, which can take several generations."

"But humans are the most impatient creatures. We are only interested in the immediate future."

"So Wang Hu's plan is just a castle in the air?"

Unable to hide the disappointment on her face, Elsa thought she could save Bartfield from suffering.

But after her lover's explanation, Aisha had to admit it.

Faced with the hundreds of years it would take to develop the universe.

It is indeed possible that humans as a group may give up halfway and eventually turn around and start fighting again for their interests in the known world.

This is supported by historical evidence, which shows that even during the Age of Discovery, there were endless overseas interests.

Isn’t the ruling class still waging a protracted war over a small piece of land?
The endless stream of wealth sent back eventually helped the nobles launch wars.

"That's true, actually." Bartfield denied Aisha's statement.

"His plan is also based on the fact that he and we are in a different civilization circle, and is conceived based on the civilization he belongs to."

"I have an outdated data here, a comparison of the core industrial data of East Asia and the Atlantic Federation in a certain year."

"The annual shipbuilding output in East Asia is 4232 million tons, while the Atlantic is 60 tons. The cement output in East Asia is 20.23 billion tons, while the Atlantic is only about 1 million tons."

"East Asia's steel production is 13.6 billion tons, while the Atlantic Ocean only has 0.7 billion tons. East Asia's electricity production is 9.2 trillion kilowatts, while the Atlantic Ocean only has 4 trillion kilowatts."

"In East Asia, the number of cars, grains and meats is 3016 million, 7 million tons and 9641 million tons respectively, while in the Atlantic, there are only 1000 million cars, 5.7 million tons and 4600 million tons."

"In several industries such as steel and shipbuilding, the Atlantic is only a fraction of East Asia's."

"So East Asia, which has the world's leading industrial manufacturing power that can use the year as a time node and can persevere in working towards its goal, is indeed the civilization on this planet most likely to be the first to enter the universe."

"Andy!" Aisha asked anxiously, her eyes lighting up again. "Does that mean there's still a chance?"

"Hmm." Bartfield suddenly looked at his lover, and said after thinking for a while with hesitation and entanglement.

"If, I mean if, would you like to give Wang Hu a ride?"

"what do you mean?"

There are very few fools among the Adjusters, and Aisha can be considered an elite among the Adjusters. She instantly understood her lover's thoughts.

The plan was proposed by Wang Hu, so as long as Wang Hu stands at a high enough position and does not forget his original intention, he will promote the plan!
Aisha lowered her head so that Baltfeld wouldn't see her misty eyes.

Just when Bartfeld mistakenly thought that his lover disagreed and wanted to change the subject.

"Andy, no matter where I go, even if it's hell, as long as I have you, it's enough."

"Elsa." Looking at his lover infatuatedly, Bartfield slowly walked over and hugged her directly.

If a wife is found like this, what else can a husband ask for?

"Brother Wang Hu, please let me join the Zero Requiem project." On the other side, after successfully leaving the Desert Tiger's mansion, Kira could not hide the excitement in his heart halfway, and shouted loudly to Wang Hu.

"Of course, of course." Wang Hu glanced at the excited Kira, indicating that this plan requires your contribution.

"Hmph." In response, Kagali looked at Wang Hu, who didn't even mention her, and she snorted coldly.

"How could a guy like you be able to carry out such a great plan?"

"Not to mention developing the universe, we in Orb don't even have the ability to do that!"

"You don't have it in Orb, but we do in East Asia."

Wang Hu turned his head and stretched out his hand, with two fingers slightly closed together, but leaving a slight gap.

"The gap between East Asia and Orb is just like this gap."

"Hmph." Cagalli was a little angry at first, thinking that Wang Hu looked down on Orb.

But when she saw the gap between Wang Hu's fingers and heard his explanation, Cagalli suddenly felt a little happy again.

"You are very knowledgeable. If that's the case, when I get back, try to persuade my father to join your plan."

“It may seem insignificant, but there is a gap as big as the universe, so you can’t do it but we can.”

Kagali and Wang Hu said almost at the same time.

In an instant, the blonde girl looked as if she had eaten expired food, and her face turned horrible.

"Wang Hu!" The sound of Cagalli's teeth grinding was so loud that the other two could hear it clearly. Cagalli, who was unable to bear it any longer, clenched her fists and ignored the fact that she was still wearing a dress.

She chased Wang Hu and started punching and kicking him, vowing to vent her anger at Wang Hu for looking down on Aub.

"OK OK."

After being beaten by Kagali, Wang Hu grabbed the girl's hand.

"It would be the best if you, Orb, are willing to join us. Uniting all forces that can be united is our goal."

His expression was serious, and what Wang Hu said was also serious.

"Wang Hu." Looking at Wang Hu's face closely, Kagali's pretty face blushed and she stopped talking.

Naturally, there was no conversation along the way, and the three of them arrived at the agreed meeting place smoothly.

The supplies had already been purchased and shipped out, and the subsequent delivery of supplies had also been agreed upon. Li Chengzhi was waiting with Cagalli's special driver.

"Did it go well?" Seeing Wang Hu appear, Li Chengzhi looked at Cagalli, whose appearance had changed drastically, and asked.

"OK." With a gesture, Wang Hu indicated that everything went well.

"Cagali." Wang Hu and Li Chengzhi were talking in low voices, while Cagali's driver was looking at the girl in a dress.

Ahmed immediately came up shyly and praised him in a low voice.

"You look so beautiful today!"

"Yeah." Still immersed in her previous communication with Wang Hu, Cagalli didn't seem to be paying attention.

Looking at Wang Hu who was communicating with Li Chengzhi not far away, Kagali didn't even take her eyes off him.

"Have you contacted our headquarters?" Wang Hu looked down at the note handed to him by his friend, and asked as he saw the military order to return home immediately.

"I have something to ask you about your matter. Also, I need your help in the reorganization and training of the new troops."

While purchasing supplies, Li Chengzhi also contacted the local East Asian underground intelligence agency.

In other words, the organization that can produce so many supplies right under the nose of the Desert Tiger must be backed by East Asia or other forces.

If you want to buy it, why not use Ob's money to buy it? Why doesn't Li Chengzhi choose his own family?

"Are you looking for an excuse to hand me back?"

Wang Hu knew that Li Chengzhi could contact Dongya as early as when he planted a bomb in Bartfield's house.

At this time, he laughed and told a joke.

"East Asians don't cheat East Asians." Li Chengzhi responded with an even colder joke, but as long as we exclude some individual scums, there is actually nothing wrong with this sentence itself.

"I understand." Looking back at Kira, Wang Hu stopped and thought for a while.

"After we break through the encirclement of the Desert Tigers, we will join the transport team organized by Huitong and return to the mainland."

"But for the time being, let Kira escort the Archangel, so that it can be seen as a beginning and an end."

"Okay." Li Chengzhi did not object to the proposal.

With East Asia's strength here, it would not be difficult to transport back two Gundams, but transporting back the Archangel would be extremely exaggerated.

At the same time, East Asia's military power has not yet been projected to this place, so if a fleet is specially dispatched to escort a warship, it is theoretically still a battleship of the Atlantic Federation Army.

Do you really think East Asia is a charity?
If the Atlantic Federation Army now declares that the ownership of the Archangel belongs to East Asia, then maybe it can be considered.

in this way
Breaking through the blockade of the Desert Tiger, entering the vast ocean.

With the power of the Strike Gundam, and the route planned for them by Wang Hu and I in advance, they should be able to hold on until they return to the Alaska Joint Forces Headquarters, right?

Once we get there, if we let Kira go to the East Asian Army’s base in advance, then nothing will happen.

At worst, the Strike Gundam with the strongest cockpit can protect Kira, right?
