It was not until the end of the battle that Xiao Ran announced the success of the coup, and this news spread throughout the world in just a few minutes.
In this coup, it could be said that the Federation government and A-Laws had been plotted against from the very beginning. In fact, Xiao Ran could have announced the success of the coup the moment Cruzet led his men to arrest all the important officials of the current government, but Xiao Ran still chose to defeat A-Laws, the Federation's strongest military force, and locked up all the A-Laws' people before announcing the success of the coup.
In this way, the current Federation's strongest military force was completely gone. Even if all the Federation military bases on Earth opposed the current Xiao Ran, they still had to consider whether the power in their hands was a match for Xiao Ran. Moreover, although the military forces of these local military forces were not as strong as A-Laws separately, when gathered together, they were indeed a terrifying force.
What Xiao Ran wanted to do was to let the officers of these military bases know that his power was not something they could resist. When the huge Burning Legion appeared in outer space and landed directly on the Federation's headquarters without stopping, the military bases immediately sent documents to the interim government led by Cruzet and El Erf, expressing their approval of the new government and their willingness to obey the orders of the new government.
The appearance of the new MACROSS battleship from the Ultra Space-Time Fortress had attracted the attention of all the people in the world. This kind of battleship was the most terrifying weapon of war compared to the battleships of this world, which could at most be regarded as transport ships. It was the ultimate embodiment of this world's military force. The huge and ferocious cannon could destroy a military base with a single shot, and it was impossible to defend against. Under such a deterrent force, these people wisely chose the right path.
For a few days, the entire world's internet was broadcasting news about the coup d 'état, and the various messy things that A-LAWS had done in the past were gradually revealed. It also caused a great shock to the entire world, but in exchange, it was the support of countless people for the new government, and for Xiao Ran.
Among these news, the most eye-catching news was the various MS that appeared in the battle. Xiao Ran's Justice Gundam, Bassac's Ferocious Fury, the Skeleton Squad's shapeshifting fighters, and the Celestials' mechs. But what was even more shocking was the MACROSS battleship, Burning Legion, which was currently hovering above the Federation's headquarters and covering the entire sky.
Just hovering for a few days and nights was already unbelievable enough. The mass of the Burning Legion was absolutely massive, and to be able to keep such a massive battleship suspended in the air, the energy and levitation technology were enough to make countless people wonder if they had encountered alien technology. Of course, there was nothing wrong with that.
Xiao Ran didn't have the time to pay attention to the lively scene on the Internet and news. Or rather, the entire Burning Legion didn't have the time to pay attention to this. All the members of the Burning Legion had been completely scattered and stuffed into various corners of the world to supervise the various military bases that were barely affected by the coup. They stayed there like special envoys.
Mary, Captain Jay Vry, Dugus, Graham, and Ozma began to take over the Federation's military headquarters and began to clean up and reorganize the military. Katie Manikin was promoted from Brigadier General to Major General, while Colonel Sergei was promoted to Brigadier General. He also led his men to clean up the traces left by the coup, deal with the situation of A-Laws, and take over their bases, factories, and other resources in various worlds.
Xiao Ran, the one who single-handedly led the coup and suppressed Livonz, successfully sat in the office of the Federation President. He became the acting President and began to establish a new government. At the same time, he also sent out invitations to the resistance army and the national forces that were previously targeted by the Federation and A-Laws to join the big family of the Federation. He also gave these forces and countries corresponding parliamentary seats.
In addition, even if they chose not to join the Federation, Xiao Ran would let the Federation do its best to restore the damage done by the previous Federation government in these areas. He also wouldn't impose energy restrictions on these areas. In principle, those who were willing to join the Federation wouldn't interfere with their internal affairs. Only the military forces had to be under unified management. But even so, Xiao Ran's conditions were much better than the previous government's.
The previous government's attitude was somewhat similar to that of those who stood in their way would die. But now, Xiao Ran's government's attitude was that they truly wanted to develop together. But even if there were forces that refused to join the Federation, Xiao Ran would still secretly do something. After all, Prometheus' mission was no joke. If he said that they would unite, they must unite.
A month later, the problems left by the coup were almost solved. However, the mess left by the previous government still had to be resolved slowly. Because of Xiao Ran's sincere invitation, all the independent forces on Earth sent their officials to negotiate. Most countries and forces were willing to join the Federation. But two months later, even the forces that were previously opposed to joining the Federation chose to join.
This was because Xiao Ran had gathered the leaders of all these forces, including the important officials of the newly established government and important military personnel under Xiao Ran. They held a secret meeting. The content of the meeting was very simple. Just by announcing the existence of aliens, those who were still wavering or firmly opposed decided to join the Federation.
Xiao Ran made it very clear to these people. The alien life forms were now in the solar system. In this day and age, any racial conflicts and regional conflicts were completely meaningless. Only by truly uniting and developing together could they survive this crisis. The unified management of the army was to allow more outstanding people to be selected and become the world's first line of defense. What was left was for the entire world to work together to create more weapons to protect themselves.
Otherwise, if the chaos in the Middle East and Africa continued, how would the Federation have the time and energy to protect them under the threat of the alien life forms? When that time came, the countries that joined the Federation would naturally work together, but what would happen to the countries that didn't join the Federation?
If the alien life forms were a kind race, then it would be fine. But what if they weren't? What if they were a bloodthirsty race? In a situation where those regions had no one to rely on and were economically and militarily backward, who could help them?
Xiao Ran and Cruzet echoed each other, causing many people's faces to turn pale. When Xiao Ran said that if they joined the Federation, the entire world would treat them as equals, and they would be able to receive military protection, material support, energy replenishment, and so on, no one objected to joining the Federation anymore.
A few days later, Xiao Ran stood in front of the Federation's government building. Under the support of the huge Burning Legion above his head, and under the witness of the leaders of various regions around the world, he officially announced the establishment of the new Federation government. At the same time, the earth had truly achieved a comprehensive unification. Humans would no longer have differences in nationality. At the same time, he swore to be the president of the new Federation government.
After this press conference, the first step of the army's mission — unifying the earth and overthrowing the Federation government — had been completed. After Xiao Ran said those words, under the illumination of countless flashes, a notification from Prometheus popped up in his mind. Not only Xiao Ran, but all the army members also heard the same notification at this moment.
"Ding! The first step of the mission has been completed. The establishment of the new world government has been completed. Earth has been completely unified. Countdown to the second step of the mission: 180 days. Please prepare for the mission as soon as possible. At this stage, the Federation's defense strength is less than 35%."
After hearing this notification, Xiao Ran's expression did not change in the face of the countless cameras. 180 days was six months, which was half a year. According to Xiao Ran's original plan, having three months to prepare was already very good, but he did not expect Prometheus to actually give him half a year to prepare. Speaking of which, it was a good thing. It was just that the additional condition of failing the mission if the defense strength was less than 35% was a little troublesome.
Half a year's time seemed like a long time, but it was actually not that long. The cleaning up of the army and rebuilding of sufficient combat strength was not something that could be completed in a short time. However, time waited for no one. On the second day after Xiao Ran announced the establishment of the new government to the world, the Federation government sent countless people to the regions and countries that had just joined the Federation to assist in the reorganization. At the same time, they also sent out armed forces to help stabilize the situation.
On the other hand, after Mary and the others fully took over the military forces, a new force was formed using the foundation of A-Laws. Most of its members were original members of A-Laws. Except for the change of commander, it was actually not much different from the original A-Laws.
The only difference was that this force, named the Guardians, would not carry out any combat missions. They would only undergo the most basic and most rigorous collective combat training every day. As time passed, the size of this force far exceeded the original A-Laws. As long as they were capable pilots, all combat personnel, including bridge personnel, would be transferred from the original local army to this force. Everyone who joined this force would tell them the true purpose of this team at the beginning, so even if the training was tough, no one chose to quit the team.
In terms of the MS, although A-Laws' original mass-produced GN-S model could be used, because it was a multi-purpose model that gave up on firepower, it began to be modified. The original general-purpose model was under the attack of the entire Federation's technical staff. Under the premise that Celestial's research institute was also incorporated into the Federation, a new model was quickly designed and then began to be produced.
The production this time wasn't just relying on Laguna's factory, but also the original A-Laws' factory and even the Federation's own factory. With only half a year's time, if they only relied on the current Laguna, the original A-Laws factory, and the Federation's own factory to produce the mecha, the mecha that could be produced in half a year's time might not be enough for the Guardian Force to fully equip.
Therefore, this time, the task of manufacturing the MS was given to the heavy industry companies around the world with the corresponding ability. Although the matter of the extraterrestrial life was not really publicized, how could the powerful and influential not know about this information that was already an open secret among the upper echelons? Therefore, under such circumstances, these companies that accepted the order were also working overtime to manufacture the MS. They did not dare to slack off in any way. They completely followed the most standard process on the technical drawings to manufacture the brand-new MS.
This batch of brand-new MS was not entirely powered by solar furnaces. Some of them also used thermonuclear engines. Generally speaking, although the MS models were the same, they were divided into three types: speed type, firepower type, and standard type. Each type was equipped with a self-destruct function, and at the same time, a more advanced escape function.
Based on the fusion ability of the ELS, once the escape function was turned on, the MS would eject the pilot from the back of the body, and then rely on a small unprotected manned thruster that was half the size of a motorcycle to quickly evacuate. The body would also self-destruct after the escape system was turned on to prevent the MS from becoming the combat power of the ELS.
As for the battleship aspect, because of the existence of Law, the original battleships of the Federation were basically abandoned. Even the battleships that were not abandoned began to be improved in the direction of firepower fortresses. At the same time, the production of a new type of battleship began. The new type of battleship was about 400 meters long. It was completely built in the direction of greater firepower and speed. It fully adopted the thermonuclear energy matrix for functions. As for the capacity of the body, it was a problem that was completely out of the question. If the MS was really carried out, it could only carry three bodies at most.
