“…”
Facing Fang Zheng's words, the rebels on the opposite side were silent for a while. After a moment, the curly-haired man who was in the lead stood up.
"What would you do if we joined you?"
"fan!"
Hearing what the curly-haired man said, the little follower behind him suddenly became excited.
"Are you really going to join this group of people of unknown origin?"
"That's right."
The curly-haired man nodded.
"Like he said, everything we're doing now... Frankly speaking, I don't see any direction. We're trying to fight Britannia every day, but what can we gain? We've tried so many times, have we ever succeeded once? In that case, I think... why not listen to what he says first? At least, for now, he has a much clearer understanding of the situation than we do."
"But……"
Fang Zheng listened to the quarrel of the people below quietly without saying a word. Fang Zheng actually didn't think much of this group of terrorists who called themselves the resistance army. Take their behavior for example. If the truck was not loaded with the strange green-haired girl, but real poison gas, then what they were doing was outright terrorist activities, and there was no room for excuse at all.
Of course, Fang Zheng did not approve of their behavior, but that did not mean that Fang Zheng could not understand it. Just like the Twin Towers incident in the United States, think about the war launched by the United States in the Middle East, how many people were killed and injured, how many people were separated from their wives and children, and how many families were destroyed. Even if only one thousandth of them had a deep enough hatred for the United States, it would not be difficult to launch such an attack.
The reason for doing so is simple. The United States has a naturally superior geographical location. It is impossible for them to organize an army to cross the ocean to attack the United States. Moreover, in terms of weapon quality, number of people and other aspects, those scattered soldiers pose no threat to the modernized U.S. army. In this case, wanting to retaliate against the United States is basically no different from daydreaming.
Therefore, the most cost-effective one among them is naturally terrorist attack.
Of course, after the Twin Towers, the call for anti-terrorism was high, and many people did not understand why this was done. Indeed, from the perspective of political demands, this was inappropriate, but from the perspective of "blood debt must be paid with blood", it was normal. The United States' wars in the Middle East have destroyed more than a million families and killed more than a million people. How many of them were innocent civilians?
What these people did was similar to this. Judging from the massacre of the Shinjuku concentration camp by the Britannian soldiers, this was not the first or second time. In retaliation, it was natural for this group of people to steal poison gas bombs and launch terrorist attacks on Britannian civilians.
You killed my relatives, so I will let you taste the feeling of losing your relatives. Tooth for tooth, blood for blood, no problem.
I just don’t know if there are twin towers in Britannia... If there are, maybe I can restore history in another world?
"So, what are we going to do?"
Just when Fang Zheng was distracted, the people over there had finished their argument. The man named Shan seemed to have convinced his companions. He turned around, looked at Fang Zheng again and asked.
Hearing his question, Fang Zheng smiled coldly.
"First, you need to... attend class."
"……Why?"
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, everyone was stunned, and Fang Zheng jumped down and stood in front of them. Then he stretched out his hand and waved it gently. Soon, a 3D image appeared in front of Fang Zheng.
"So first of all, assuming you are a resistance group, what are your political demands?"
Hearing Fang Zheng's question, everyone couldn't help but think. The leading man wanted to answer, but was interrupted by Fang Zheng's wave of his hand.
"If you want to expel Britannia and get rid of the control of the Britannian Empire, you can do it, but if you want to restore this place to an independent country, it is completely impossible."
"Why?!"
The curly-haired man was shocked by Fang Zheng's answer.
"I think you all have heard about what happened to the reapers a few days ago."
“We have heard of this.”
The curly-haired man nodded, then asked in confusion.
"But haven't those monsters been destroyed?"
For people living on Earth, the threat posed by the Reapers is far less real than that posed by the PLANTs, Zeon, and the inhabitants of the colonies. After all, the latter were actually harvested, while the former, although they had seen similar reports in the news or newspapers, had never experienced it in person. After all, the first wave of Reapers that invaded Earth was repelled at the lunar base, and the next wave was directly annihilated by the fleet led by Fang Zheng, and did not cause any impact on the people on Earth at all.
So for the members of these resistance organizations, the metal monster floating in outer space is not as threatening as Britannia.
After all, the former is just a piece of news, while the latter is a real threat.
For example, the civilians who were killed by the Britannian army before - they certainly don't need to worry about whether the Reapers will exterminate humanity.
Because they are already dead.
"Of course, the Reapers have been destroyed."
Fang Zheng naturally knew what was going on, so he sneered and continued speaking.
"But who can guarantee that monsters like the Reapers won't appear again in the future? In this situation, isn't it too stupid for humans to kill each other? In fact, the Earth Federation is currently promoting further cooperation among all mankind... Well, I have to say, they are not particularly stupid."
If there is any positive significance in the emergence of the Reapers, it is this. Through the invasion of the Earth Federation network, Fang Zheng also saw that the top leaders of the Earth Federation finally realized that in the entire universe, there are more terrifying threats than the Adjusters, mutants and new humans. Therefore, they finally began to abandon the original barriers and began to try to cooperate with each other.
"Therefore, under the current circumstances, deepening cooperation and eventually forming a unified human political system is the general trend. If you jump out and claim independence at this time, no force will support you. The Earth Federation may even intervene to stop you."
Fang Zheng analyzed the current situation for them, which made them all pale. After all, they were just a group of terrorists with no culture, no knowledge and no vision. How could they understand something as complicated as international relations?
"So what can we do? According to what you said, are we going to be like this for the rest of our lives?"
Soon, the man with the headband threw the gun in his hand to the ground in frustration and complained. The curly-haired man was silent for a moment, then looked at Fang Zheng again.
"So what about what you said before that we could escape Britannia's control?"
Very good, at least I have a clear mind.
“I said, your political demands are wrong.”
Facing the curly-haired man's question, Fang Zheng waved his hand.
"If you continue with this goal, you will definitely be suppressed by the Earth Federation. But on the other hand, if you change to another method, the Earth Federation will not only not suppress you, but may even support you to some extent."
"real?!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up and they rushed over, staring at Fang Zheng intently.
"What exactly are we supposed to do?"
"Don't worry yet."
Looking at the resistance members who were gathering around him, Fang Zheng waved his hand again and asked them to stay where they were.
"This starts with the current situation of the Earth Federation..."
Since Fang Zheng said he would help them, he naturally did his homework. In fact, before these people came, Fang Zheng had already hacked into the network and had a clear understanding of the history of this world in recent years.
Originally, this world only had the Earth Federation, which at that time consisted of the Eurasian Federation, the Atlantic Federation, and the Chinese Federation. Britannia was the leader of the Atlantic Federation. At that time, Britannia was the strongest country with the most advanced technology, so it also dominated the Earth Federation.
The nightmare mecha was also first invented by Britannia. Then, in order to seize the resources needed for the nightmare mecha, they invaded Japan and turned it into District 11. After that, Britannia, which occupied the resources, began to monopolize the road.
If everything had gone well, then Britannia's eternal rule would have been just around the corner.
Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. Just a few years ago, a time-space earthquake occurred, which changed everything.
The fusion of the other world caused many problems. For example, the appearance of Zeon and the Earth Federation Army in that world quickly changed the original power balance. The other world was not completely integrated with this world. In fact, only part of the power of the other world came to this world due to the time-space shock.
And what is very "coincidental" is that most of them belong to the East Asian and European sphere of influence of that world.
People always like to find similar people. For example, Asuna and her friends like to visit Japan even after traveling to a parallel world. Fang Zheng also likes to visit China in the other world. These pilots and legions will definitely seek out the forces they are familiar with.
So now Britannia was at a loss.
Zeon and PLANT came together because of their similar values and common hatred towards the Earth Federation, while most of the Federation's forces joined the Chinese Federation and the Eurasian Federation respectively. On the contrary, Britannia, which was once very powerful in the Earth Federation, only got a small share of the benefits.
With the exchange of technology from that parallel world, the Eurasian Federation and the Chinese Federation soon developed their own mobile suits, freeing themselves from the resource allocation that was originally strangled by Britannia. They also created warships and armies that contained their own technology.
Britannia, however, fell behind in the technological race because they did not have the basic technology. If things continued like this, in another three to five years, regardless of what happened in PLANT, the Atlantic Federation's voice in the entire Earth government would be completely eroded by the Eurasian Federation and the Chinese Federation.
Unfortunately, the arrival of the Reapers broke this beautiful blueprint. In the previous Earth-Moon Defense War, the Eurasian Federation and the Chinese Federation had used up most of their forces to fight against the Reapers. However, because their technology was "not so advanced", they did not go into space to fight. Instead, the Atlantic Federation, which was responsible for ground defense, took advantage and did not suffer much loss...
Hmm? Why does this scene look so familiar?
If the Reapers are compared to the axis, and the Eurasian Federation and the Chinese Federation are compared to the alliance...
Is this another case of history repeating itself?
If this continues, it will only be a matter of time before the Atlantic Federation, led by Britannia, regains its voice in the Earth Federation.
This is naturally not what the other two parties want to see.
This also gives Founder room to maneuver.
