Chapter 579: "Super Springboard"
The plan proposed by Sister Xue is quite simple conceptually, and can be described as "borrowing strength" in a nutshell. The core of the plan is to take advantage of the sudden battle between the Citadel Combined Fleet and Jace in the Mass Effect Plane at this time, and to receive as many Jace refugees as possible in a desperate situation.
After receiving these Jace refugees, they can take advantage of their landlord advantage to cooperate with Jace in various ways and even obtain direct management rights over the Jace community. After that, they will be able to use these Jaces and let them help the Planar Council accomplish things they were unable or have the energy to do before.
In this part, the most invasive and dangerous suggestion proposed by Sister Xue is to rearm and place the received Jace group in Plane 035, and persuade Jace to help them face the anti-Theron people in this alien position on the condition that Jace needs things such as long-term residency and assisting Jace upgrade his core procedures.
Unlike the current members of the Space-Time Fleet, Jace, as a mechanical race, does not require entities to survive. During the war, they also have a low dependence on supplies in the rear, and they also have the ability to transmit their software information through guò number jù to escape the battlefield.
This is similar to the respawn technology of the Theron people, with this technical support, as long as the main base in the rear is not blown up, Jace basically does not have to worry about real casualties in the battle. These characteristics make them ideal for large-scale interstellar warfare.
For this reason, they are actually better suited to deal with the difficult Theron than the Space-Time Fleet. If this can really be achieved, the Space-Time Council can regain the initiative in Plane 035 without a single soldier and solve the threat of hostile Theron there.
Doing so can effectively enhance the prestige of the Space-Time Council, fulfill Shen Chao's promise to the people from this plane in advance, and even obtain an excellent www.biquge.info for the great development of the Space-Time Council in the future.
The Milky Way in Plane 035 has proven to be a resource-rich but species-scarce place, and there is no need to worry about clashing with other extraterrestrial intelligent races to develop such a plane. There is no need to worry about the lack of resources, as long as the Theron people who are weak in the eyes of the council are solved, the entire galaxy can become the development space of the space-time council.
The Temporal Council has always wanted to integrate its forces and enter the Great Cosmic Age in the same example as the successful space races they have seen in other planes. And the 035 plane is the "treasure land" in their phase.
And for the natives of plane 035, the Theron people who are still preparing to attack the earth of that plane, this will certainly not be good news. Because Jace's fleet will only be more dangerous than the space-time fleet they have encountered before. Jace, as a mechanical race, is immune to virtually any form of electronic interference and invasion, and is completely immune to all combat modes that Theron excel at.
Compared to the Theron people, Jace's achievements in military technology are undoubtedly more superb. Unlike Plane 035, which has only two powerful intelligent races, humans and Therons, the galaxy of the Mass Effect Plane is full of powerful organic intelligent races.
Under the fierce competition there, Jace's military technology has developed considerably. Their ships also carry a large number of plasma weapons, which have a greater area damage than the Mass Effect Acceleration Artillery. When dealing with a Theron warship with no shields and only armor protection, Jace was able to gain a one-sided advantage in firepower.
Jace had many other traits that were suitable against the Theron people, but Shen Chao's mind had already jumped to other parts. Same as Sister Xue. He was very optimistic about Jace's overall strength and credibility, but that didn't mean that he was willing to immediately follow Sister Xue's plan to save Jace.
After all, there are still a lot of holes in this plan. If the plan is successful, they will naturally be able to greatly improve the hard power of the council, open up a new parliamentary control plane, and start the great universe era of the space-time council plan in advance.
However, while the expectations are very good, the dangers are also at the same time. If there are some big differences in the plan, cuò. For example, Jace finally decided to break the contract after arriving at Plane 035 and sided with the Therons, who are also of the mechanical race. Then it is undoubtedly equivalent to lifting a stone and shooting yourself in the foot.
If that happens, not only will the Space-Time Council not benefit in any way, but it will also be driven out of Plane 035, and it will not be able to return for revenge in the foreseeable future. Thinking of this, Shen Chao basically guessed the reason for the dispute between Custer and Sister Xue before.
As the second-in-command of the expedition, Custer has always been synonymous with steady. He could naturally think of this layer. And it is certainly unrealistic to want him to support this extremely risky plan proposed by Sister Xue.
However, despite recognizing the possible risks, Shen Chao found that he was more inclined to Sister Xue's mention after thinking about the gains and losses of the circle. It's not that he's not passionate about saving Jace, it's that he's used to taking shortcuts, and he's become a little numb to the risks of dimensional travel.
Although Sister Xue's mention is dangerous, the benefits of success are indeed far greater than the risks. Not to mention. All the tasks presided over by Sister Xue have never failed. Thinking of this, he still decided to put the treasure on Sister Xue's side and support her Tiyì.
"Okay, I see what you mean. But if we're going to go your way, we'll have to make some adjustments to the plan. As soon as Shen Chao said this, Sister Xue finally relaxed, while Custer next to her sighed. Custer knew that Shen Chao's statement was determined to support this dangerous mention. No matter what others say, he won't change his mind.
"We can transfer Jace at a faster speed, mobilize the fleet over, and use the space-time ......gate they carry" Sister Xue saw that her proposal was supported by Shen Chao, and hurriedly proposed an improvement plan, she also thought that Shen Chao was worried that the current evacuation speed was too slow, and they would not be able to avoid the high-speed attack of the Divine Citadel Combined Fleet.
"No, I'm not going to let the fleet do this, a better way is to mobilize a super springboard to come over ......" Shen Chao directly proposed a more radical plan than Sister Xue.
The Super Springboard is the name given to a large research project within the Spacetime Fleet, which aims to create a mothership with a super-large Zero Elemental Core and use it to transfer warships to the Outer Plane in batches.
Shen Chao knew that it was impossible to hide it for Jace to flee on a large scale, and they would inevitably be discovered by the Citadel Combined Fleet if they did so. As a result, we lose the ability to operate on the Mass Effect plane. In such a situation, instead of doing it secretly, it is better to make it clear that the carriage and horses are acting openly.
He was well aware of the capabilities of the Combined Fleet of the Citadel, and although the Citadel Council was often very funny, the members of the Combined Fleet were composed of the elite of the major races. In an interstellar war of this magnitude, it would be impossible for Jace to make any major moves to hide from the Combined Fleet's reconnaissance.
Sister Xue also showed a strong tendency to defend Jace's race when she reconciled the contradictions between the two sides before. Under such circumstances, it was undoubtedly unrealistic for Shen Chao and Sister Xue to silently help Jace evacuate, and to expect not to be discovered by the Combined Fleet.
Instead of hiding himself as much as possible, it is better to give up hiding and openly assist Jace in escaping. Even in that plane, it is not impossible to disclose the existence of the space-time council in advance. After saying this, he quickly contacted the fleet logistics department to find out the latest progress of the Super Springboard program.
Here we must mention what the super springboard plan is, because the warships at all levels in the space-time fleet cannot pass through all the current types and sizes of space-time gates, so the cross-dimensional deployment of the fleet has always been only "manually" operated by Shen Chao himself.
Every time entering and exiting a plane was the most time-consuming and laborious stage, Shen Chao had to personally carry each battleship to its destination. This is not only laborious, but also has a lot of tactical risks, and every time you enter and exit an unfamiliar plane, it is the most vulnerable time for the fleet.
In order to solve this problem, Shen Chao has been exploring his "maximum carrying capacity" when he is shuttling between planes, and looking for a suitable large vehicle as a special "springboard" for transit.
The Long Night is nearly 30 kilometers long, with more than a dozen power cores inside, so powerful that it exceeds the total power of all other warships in the current space-time fleet, due to its huge internal and external volume, the volume and transformation space are very large.
The reason why we wanted to use the Long Night as a template for the "Super Springboard" plan was to start a few months ago. Shortly after the capture of the Long Night, the Temporal Council's technical experts determined that the supership's structural strength was too low to be transformed into an attack-type capital warship.
However, due to its super size, which is very suitable for transforming into a fleet aircraft carrier, which best meets the requirements of the Super Springboard program, they quickly decided to transform this super giant ship into a "cross-dimensional mothership". Now, the renovation has been going on for a month or two.
Since the Long Night itself is a Covenant combat aircraft carrier, its main structure does not need to be overhauled, except for the need to install a huge "attachment" to adapt to the unique needs of the space-time fleet, there are no other difficulties in the transformation of the entire ship.
At this time, the renovation progress has been more than halfway through. Rear reports show that although the renovation of the Long Night has not yet been completed, the main structure has been partially completed and can be used to carry out low-intensity transportation tasks.
Here it is necessary to mention the renovation project of the Long Night, which was positioned as a pure combat transport ship due to its positioning as an interdimensional fleet aircraft carrier. As a result, the Long Night, which had been transformed by the Council of Time and Space, did not increase its firepower like the other warships.
Conversely, many of the original weapon systems on the warship have been dismantled to allow room for modification of their core functions. Among them, the most important modification of the whole ship is the special "accessories" that it is equipped with. (To be continued......)
PS: First of all, thank you for the monthly pass of "the same 880、wsos、Moonlight and shadow",Apologize to everyone.,The black cat was originally going to update the code yesterday.,But because I was itchy by the trailer of "Fallout 4" on E3 a few days ago, so I went home last night and brushed the new Vegas for a few hours......
