Chapter 54: Two to One
Except for the first mate Merkel, who had just gone off work to rest, the "Storm" think tank gathered on the bridge for a brief discussion. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The first to speak was a distressed Furles, but he made a digression, "The Tempest remains invisible and can't see the outside, so what's the use of my memory if the next few targets are like this?" ”
For Fols's question, Fengyu is really not easy to answer, he can't sacrifice the safety of the "Storm" to satisfy the GMP people's desire to show excellent memory.
Feng Yu was still thinking about how to answer this question, but Luo Yunxi remembered something, "I forgot if he didn't say it." You were so busy before you left that Dr. M couldn't find you after a few trips. He asked me to hand you something that could be used to solve Falls' problem. ”
What Luo Yunxi said was that the reconnaissance plane was piloted by mental power, which was used to make up for the problem that the "Storm" could not see out when it was optically invisible. Controlled by a person with the ability to release mental power, after leaving the shadow area, the video is filmed, and the "Tempest" is sent back with a mental power packet that is not hindered by R particles.
The essence of mental power is brain bioelectricity, that is, brain waves. Brain waves are not electromagnetic waves, they are purely the embodiment of the potential change frequency of the brain's bioelectricity, and usually cannot be emitted. However, the ability of the Awakened to release mental power allows electromagnetic waves to break through the shackles of the brain and propagate to the outside space with power sufficient to play a specific role.
It is precisely because the spiritual force is not an electromagnetic wave, but a pure electric field, so it is not hindered and interfered by R particles, and it has become the only way to break through the blockade of R particles to achieve medium-distance communication in this era.
Optical communication may also be regarded as a medium-distance communication method in space, but it is too affected by the limitations of point-to-point. In a fast-paced battlefield, especially when the distance between mobile suits and warships is getting wider and wider, it is easy to create a disconnect between the front and rear communications of the fleet. Moreover, when the concentration of R particles reaches a certain level, even optical communication will be blocked, which further limits this method.
In contrast, the external mental power is much stronger in this regard, and it can take the initiative to send point-to-point messages.
As an organization of the awakened, Awa-ker took the lead in making a breakthrough in this area of research, using the abilities of the awakened with mental power to make a fuss, and developed a series of technologies such as mental imaging, mental driving, and mental communication, which are collectively referred to as mental power systems.
However, even Awa-ker is currently unable to put aside the psychic power exodus awakened person to develop a pure psychic electronic device. The research institute under Clegg's command can only amplify or amplify the spiritual power of the awakened to make them more powerful.
After flying out of the shadow area of the "Storm", the real-time picture of the battlefield is captured by the optical sensor carried on the body, and the mental power data packet is transmitted back to the stealth battleship after the mental power amplifier is amplified, and then the battlefield picture is reproduced through the mental power imaging device.
Because Dr. M was most familiar with the psychic piloting system when he was building the "Storm" No. 2 and No. 3 for Fengyu, Clegg gave him the psychic reconnaissance plane to develop. In addition to the mental power system, the other technologies of this machine are pediatric compared to mobile suits, and it is not difficult for Dr. M at all. To put it bluntly, the so-called psychic power reconnaissance plane is actually an active reconnaissance satellite with a psychic force system installed.
Before the departure of the "Tempest", the prototype of Dr. M's psychic power reconnaissance plane had been completed, and its appearance was disguised as an ordinary space meteorite, with a diameter of less than 10 meters. Space meteorites of this size are so numerous in the universe that they generally do not attract attention.
Considering that the "Tempest" is the warship with the most stealth battles and the highest frequency, Dr. M naturally hopes that Fengyu will personally test his design. It's just that Fengyu was really busy during that time, so Dr. M had to hand over the first prototype to Luo Yunxi, the captain of the "Storm".
For Luo Yunxi, the role of this spiritual power reconnaissance aircraft is not great, the main function overlaps with her "reconnaissance" ability, and even "reconnaissance" can be done better, directly enter the space city or the inside of the battleship to find out. So she put this reconnaissance plane into the material warehouse, and soon forgot about it, and she didn't tell Fengyu a word, and she didn't remember it until today.
In Feng Yu's opinion, the spiritual power reconnaissance plane is still somewhat useful. When he doesn't fight in person, he can enter the awakening state, separate a personality to control the reconnaissance plane, and help Luo Yunxi share a little workload. As long as this thing is really useful, I believe that the "Storm Blue" fleet can also use it.
So he happily said, "When the meeting is over, I'll try this reconnaissance plane and help Falls take some space pictures and come back." ”
With the problem of Fols solved, the meeting returned to the main topic - to fight or not to fight?
On this issue, there is a divergence of opinion among think tanks.
The first to speak was Monica. She wanted to open her mouth when Furs asked a question just now, and wanted to remind her boyfriend with low emotional intelligence not to take the question away from the beginning, which would easily cause other people to resent her. After Fengyu's previous reminder, she realized that as a GMP person who is naturally hostile to the Awakened, Furs's situation in Awa-ker is actually not good, and it is best to keep a low profile and complete this mission beautifully, and dispel the doubts of the Awakened about him.
She was even ready to forcibly interrupt Falls and bring the topic back to Fengyu's main topic, but before she could interject, the problem was solved by Luo Yunxi. So she simply threw out her opinion logically, "I think it's better not to fight." No financial resources are abundant, and it does not make much sense to destroy one of their secret storage and transportation centers, which affects our main goal, which is to be greedy for small and cheap and suffer big losses. ”
As an intelligence worker, Monica does not focus on combat, but hopes to solve problems through off-field work, which is also a traditional habit of Awa-ker. If it weren't for the fact that NO was already ready to move and exposed unstoppable ambitions, Awa-Ker would not have come to the paramilitary level it is today.
However, everyone's starting point is different, and the way of looking at the problem is naturally different, and the second officer, Spencer, as a military awakener, naturally hopes that the "Storm" can be more combat-oriented, which can reflect the ability of these people.
He said, "There is no military force on this side of the New American Galaxy, and once we give up, there is basically no chance to unplug this important transshipment center of NO. If we talk about off-the-field work, I don't think we can do it worse than us, otherwise the political and military circles of various countries would have fallen. ”
Monica retorted, "As long as we can get some evidence, even if we can't remove this place by force, we can put pressure on them through the UAC government to move out and find another place." And we all know that in the New American Galaxy, the G, K, and M type fields of the 'American Dream' have been developed within 30 light years, which means that the transit center of the NO can only move outward, which will greatly reduce their efficiency. ”
Spencer scoffed, "You're just wishful thinking, I don't think it's that simple." If we poke things out, there will naturally be pro-NO, parliamentarians and officials who will protect them. The war of words began for a month or two, and after a stalemate, the UAC government sent an independent investigation team to come and inspect on the spot. And when the investigation team arrives, there will be enough time to transfer important materials to the Soros consortium star field less than 5 light years away. At that time, the independent investigation team could only inspect the legitimate goods of the registered company, and in the end, it had to be discontinued. ”
I have to say that Spencer's analysis is very spot-on. As the second officer of the "Tempest", he basically did not have the opportunity to command the operation independently. First of all, when Luo Yunxi was arranging the three shifts of the command system, he would try his best to arrange him in a shift that was not prone to combat. And once there was a battle when he was on duty, he had to notify Feng Yu and Luo Yunxi as soon as possible, and he was not authorized to independently command the operation.
In other words, in the internal command system of the battleship, the first officer is the deputy commander, and the second officer is only the chief of staff. His main role is usually to fill in the gaps for Captain Luo Yunxi and First Officer Merkel, so he will look at problems from the perspective of the opponent and be responsible for "raising the bar" with the commander on duty.
With Spencer's excellent ability to lift the bar, Monica quickly lost the battle, giving up the argument and waiting for her supporters to show up.
It stands to reason that Foers should be knowingly on his girlfriend's side and cheer for her. But he is a simple little fresh meat with low emotional intelligence, and at this time, he is completely looking at the problem from his own position, and he even jumped out to side with Spencer, "I also support it." Anyway, the 'Tempest' is fast enough, and it will go to the next star field as soon as it is finished here, and the GMP project laboratory will not get the news so quickly. Moreover, the GMP project laboratory is an independent organization with a high level of confidentiality, which directly belongs to the highest meeting of NO, and not everyone can contact it. ”
But it was also a coincidence, after getting the support of Falls, Spencer looked at him much more pleasantly. Obviously, his girlfriend supports not fighting, this kid still dares to contradict him, he is obviously an assertive person, at least he will not be a treacherous wallgrass.
He immediately endorsed the gmp people, "Furs is right, he knows the gmp project laboratory best. ”
As the second-in-command, Luo Yunxi has a very strong influence on Fengyu and others, and usually does not express his stance at the beginning. And Lao Qiu is a recognized abstention in the "Storm" think tank, so naturally he will not express his opinion.
Since then, Monica is the only one in the "Storm" think tank who is anti-war. As for Merkel, the first mate who did not attend the meeting, Spencer packed the ticket and said that this must be the main battle.
At this time, the main battle and the anti-war sides formed a two-to-one, and Feng Yu turned his gaze to Haag, "You are also my intern staff officer, tell me your opinion." Maybe your 'sense of crisis' will prompt you again. ”
