Xiao Ran didn't say much from the beginning of the meeting until Goodman finished speaking. After a moment of silence, he looked at Major General Jin and Brigadier General Goodman and said, "According to what you said, that means our union must We will be held responsible for the failure of this operation, but I am very curious, apart from what Major General Goodman said about punishing the pilots who gave the order to retreat, what other responsibilities do we need to bear?"
Major General Jin and Brigadier General Goodman looked at each other, and Major General Jin said: "The preliminary work of this operation has been prepared for a long time, but the final failure is something we do not want to see. The sudden failure of your team The retreat completely disrupted our plan and battle formation, so I don’t say that you need to bear all the responsibilities, but at least you need to bear most of the responsibilities. MS is just that, but the loss of so many excellent pilots is not short-term. It can be cultivated with time.”
Xiao Ran asked curiously: "What then?"
"Both our countries hope that your country will be responsible for and compensate for the losses caused by your country."
Goodman knocked on the table and said directly: "To put it simply, this loss is entirely caused by you, so you must be fully responsible."
Xiao Ran shook his head and smiled: "Haha, I'm sorry that I can't agree to your request. Because of the commander's poor command, he didn't expect that the Tianren organization would have other new machines, which would lead to huge losses. I don't think this is the case. Our fault.”
"And as Major General Jin said, every pilot cannot be trained in a short time, so every elite pilot is the treasure of our union. As the head of the union's MS unit, I In my opinion, Major Graham of the army is the hero who reduced the huge losses suffered by our army, so not only will I not punish him, but I will also reward him."
"Reward him for knowing how to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of both the enemy and ourselves, and reward him for not doing something when he knows something cannot be done."
Xiao Ran said this. After glancing at the two of them, he smiled lightly and said: "I don't quite understand. The aircraft in Tianren clearly launched the first wave of attacks. There was no formation left at all. When the operational troops were completely in chaos, the operational commander Why didn't you order a retreat immediately? Even if there was a delay in the operation commander receiving the news, didn't the captains of the MS troops in your countries at that time have this common sense?"
"What I'm even more surprised about is why such negotiations are actually conducted by us, instead of senior government officials from your country negotiating with senior government officials from our country, and soldiers negotiating at the negotiating table. This does make me feel a little bit Unexpectedly, even if I negotiate with you here and get some results, what if the higher-ups deny it after I report the results?"
Neither Major General Jin nor Brigadier General Goodman answered. Xiao Ran glanced at them, shook his head and said, "I'm sorry for your loss. But I also sympathize with you very much. Among so many elite pilots, you can actually It’s really sad that no one dared to immediately give the order to retreat.”
General Jin said in a deep voice: "It is the bounden duty of soldiers to obey orders. Without the commander's orders, even if you die in battle, it will be an honor."
"Of course it's glorious, but it's the glory you only get after death." Xiao Ran shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity that this kind of glory was earned by the commander's mistake."
General Jin took a deep breath. Then he slowly said: "Let's leave aside the commander's issue for now. And it is not within the scope of today's discussion. Since it is a joint operation of the three countries, there will naturally be a unified command. The union's troops retreated without permission. Naturally, there is Wrong, and our two countries have also paid a lot of price to ensure that your troops can retreat safely, so we all agree that you need to take responsibility for this loss and solemnly apologize to our two countries."
"I'm sorry." Xiao Ran suddenly said with a sincere expression: "I formally apologize and thank you, because our team commander is smart enough, but he ignored that your people are not smart enough, which caused you to have a huge problem. I feel extremely sorry for the loss. Major Graham Aika should have issued a retreat order to both your troops at that time."
"I'm also sorry. At that time, there were actually people in our army who were willing to advance and retreat with your pilots, and they didn't evacuate until the end."
"You!!! Huh, even if those new aircraft were saved until the end, the final result is that four of your five aircraft escaped. It can be considered that we are advancing and retreating together." Goodman pointed at Xiao Ran and said. He said the word you, then snorted again, and said: "No matter what, you cannot shirk the responsibility. The three countries jointly acted, and since the spoils are common to the three countries, of course the losses must also be borne by the three countries at the same time."
"This loss, our AEU has suffered a huge loss, and we have already invested a lot in the early stage, so our AEU will pay three layers for this loss. The People's Revolutionary League invested the most, so we will pay two layers, and the rest You must be responsible."
"This is the first. Second, due to the huge losses of our two countries, the armaments of the ladder orbit are completely insufficient. In order to prevent the union from posing a threat to our ladder orbit, you must also cut the corresponding troops until they are balanced."
"Third, in view of the fact that the situation of Tianren has once again exceeded the expected range, the AEU and the Human Revolutionary Federation jointly established a new force to deal with the threats posed by Tianren, and the materials required for the initial formation will be provided by you. Provided to make up for our losses, if you also want to join, we are very welcome."
Xiao Ran narrowed his eyes, and now he understood the real plan of the Human Revolutionary Alliance and AEU.
The other party first proposed a huge amount of compensation for losses, but the union naturally refused to agree. At most, they only ordered to pay one-third of the total losses, so this matter can be regarded as a rejection, and it will be enough to drag on for a while. .
He also proposed to weaken the power of the union in the universe. Of course, Xiao Ran was very willing to do this. Thousands of people were willing, but he also knew that this was completely impossible. It was absolutely impossible for the union natives to agree to this. There is no room for negotiation even if the request is rejected directly.
Then, he proposed to let the union join in the formation of a joint force. The union, which rejected two conditions in a row, naturally had to carefully consider the benefits and losses of this matter, and might even want to fight for the command of this force. But thinking about it on the other hand, if you want to win the commander, you must get the consent of the other two countries, and the above two requirements seem to have room for consideration.
If the People's Revolutionary League and the AEU continue to hold on to the first two things and start to form a real joint force, the union will definitely not be able to sit still. In order to prevent the two countries from joining forces to threaten the union's status, No matter what, I'm afraid they will have to get involved, and even pay some price for the command rights, which is to fully agree to the first request made by the AEU and the People's Revolutionary League.
The People's Revolutionary League and AEU must also know that it is absolutely impossible for the union to cut personnel. I am afraid that this matter is only brought out in exchange for some more benefits.
Once the three conditions came out, the union was really in a dilemma. If you agree to them that this is impossible, and if you don't agree to it, it's impossible. I think the president of the union will have a headache for a while.
Xiao Ran thought about this, and before he could speak, Major General Jin took over the conversation: "We all know that in the Japanese Special Economic Zone, Major General Xiao captured some new machines that had never appeared before. It must have been so long, We should have achieved some results.”
"We are here today just to work out a charter for the detailed negotiations that will follow. I think the union will definitely not refuse to form a joint force this time. It is just a matter of how much compensation and how much we need to pay. We don't have to worry about these. Our two countries will A formal mission was sent to negotiate with your country, but after all, the heavenly beings we have to deal with are our common enemies. Since a joint force is to be formed, I think General Xiao should also pay something for the combat effectiveness of this team? "
After listening to General Jin's words, Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows instantly and thought to himself: "I didn't expect that they would still have such an idea."
"Haha." Xiao Ran groaned, suddenly smiled softly, shook his head and said: "Although it is true that a new type of machine was captured, the ones you two dispatched in this battle were also new type of machines. I think that for the technology of the new type of machine, You may have been ahead of us in terms of this, but as for this matter, we can’t be the only ones who pay, and you can only gain, right?”
"Of course not. If a joint force is formed, all three of our new MS technologies will be shared. After all, the manufactured aircraft will also be used by the joint force. We have no way to hide this." General Jin shook his head and said : "Furthermore, the strength shown by the new aircraft that appeared in this battle can be said to be very powerful. I think with the new technology of our Human Revolutionary Alliance and AEU, the re-produced aircraft may be even more powerful."
"If you really want to replace someone who doesn't know the situation, you might really be fooled by you." Xiao Ran smiled in his heart and said in a deep voice: "If we really want to form a joint force, there is certainly no problem with the technical aspects, but The prerequisite is that you also bring out the technology of the new machine. After all, it can enhance our strength. I don’t think anyone will refuse. What’s more, there are gods pressing on us. If we don’t solve this problem, it will always be a layer of confusion. The shadow above us.”
After Xiao Ran finished speaking, his eyes were full of smiles, and he thought to himself: "Of course I am willing to exchange technology for technology, but if we really exchange technology, you will not only have the technology, haha." (.)
