Chapter Thirty-Six: The Bitter Battle Begins
If you measure it by the original plot, when the entire Exelion fleet was folded and the initial WARP was successful, and the subspace was successfully infiltrated, the cosmic monster obviously took at least half the time longer than the "normal situation" before launching the first attack on the human side.
Moreover, this attack did not receive any real results at all, except for triggering the alarm of the attack on the Exelion fleet.
For what? The reason is quite simple, the reason why the previous one-way (secondary) FOLD device was to add the FOLD crystal, which is also quite precious to the reincarnation team, is to specifically record all the hyperspace data of all warships installed with related devices, and carry out spatial folding simulation through those links that have been theoretically abandoned.
This deception itself is also a one-off, and all the cosmic monsters that participated in the experiment have long been completely wiped out. And this subspace experiment is still led by the distant DG itself, and it is true that it has only recently made a phased breakthrough, if it were not for Jung and DG racing against time to study accordingly, maybe they would not have had time to catch up with this battle.
But it is precisely because the reincarnation team has endured so far, and they can't wait to keep Roger in the dark, that they have achieved a near-complete victory - the first batch of light bullet attacks of the cosmic monster has completely failed, and the physical collision carried out by a few troop levels has undoubtedly lost its target.
Unfortunately, due to the inevitable existence of the latter in the cosmic monster warfare, the enemy quickly found the true location of the fleet. Needless to say, the second wave of attacks followed.
This time, although it was a complete hit, the losses of the Exelion fleet were still pitifully small.
The reason is still the "disposable" FOLD device.
ANYONE WHO KNOWS A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE MF PLANE KNOWS THAT THE FOLD CRYSTAL IN AN ADULT VAJRA MAY BE THE SIZE OF A FINGER AT MOST - NO ONE WILL ASK IF IT IS A HUMAN FINGER OR A ZENITH FINGER AT THIS TIME, RIGHT? - BUT A FOLD CRYSTAL OF THIS SIZE IS ENOUGH TO SUPPORT THE VAJRA'S PARTICLE CANNON AND SHIELD, AND AS FOR THE SINGLE FOLD, THERE IS NO NEED TO MENTION ......
Therefore, in the true face of the "disposable FOLD device" installed on each warship of the Exelion fleet, it is obvious that there is also an offset shield that is enough to support the Marco Screw Cannon once. Of course, the effect is also a one-time thing, but in terms of the effectiveness of these two rounds of attacks being able to survive safely, it basically declares the complete bankruptcy of the cosmic monster sneak attack.
Of course, this also represents the official staging of the decisive battle of LEAF-64.
Although the actual coordinates of this great battle are basically in the vicinity of the solar system.
There's no way, although on the side of the reincarnation team, it is actually adhering to the original purpose of "not exposing the coordinates of the earth as much as possible", but in the original book, the entire fleet was blasted out of subspace in a state of uncontrol, and now it is carried by the FOLD device after two rounds of attack, and it has reached the vicinity of the target according to the original driving route.
If it had been possible, Admiral Tashiro had intended to continue his stubborn resistance in subspace. Unfortunately, luck cannot always be on the side of humans, and the help or change of the mission plane by the reincarnators is limited after all.
Almost at the same time that Admiral Tashiro ordered the entire army to fight to the death, an unexpected situation finally completely changed the situation on the battlefield.
……
The battle between the subspace shield and the deception signal did not come to any final conclusion, anyway, these two measures effectively preserved the strength of the entire Exelion fleet, so it was completely possible to wait until the next time to re-compete with each other.
The first problem faced by the Reincarnation team at the moment is that although the number of remnants of the Exelion fleet after breaking away from WARP is obviously much more than in the original book, it does not even need the alarm of the ship's radar, and Roger and Jung can't wait to see with the naked eye - of course, the "naked eye" of the DG clone - that the cosmic monsters that form an encirclement of themselves are obviously N times more than in the original book.
Isn't this nonsense?,From the beginning of the layout and distribution of troops according to the original book, the cosmic monsters have been frustrated again and again.,With the intelligence of the other party and the ability to evolve accordingly.,Only if you don't send a larger number of pursuit troops can you have ghosts.。 And if this escape battle is fought for too long, I believe that no matter what new tactics the reincarnation team can introduce, the cosmic monsters will be able to evolve new restraint troops in a targeted manner.
"That's why I've hated this infinitely evolving bug from the beginning." An incompetent instructor spoke hatefully.
"If you don't add that qualifier, maybe I'll approve of you." The answer stubble is Orion DG as usual.
"But, instructor, if you always encounter this kind of monster, maybe it's because you have the physique of attracting insects." Of course, Jung is the only one who makes the summary and makes up the knife.
Someone is very sad to find that he still can't refute it.
Because Jung joined the mission in the Great Sword World, there were no Zerg in that plane - or there was no regular BETA, only a weakened version after the experiment. As for entering the MF world and encountering VAJRA, it was definitely not caused by Jung, who was Priscia at the time.
On the contrary, if you go backwards from the Cosmic Monster to VAJRA to BETA, if you count the Demon Gundam - here DG again objects to it - if it is not the so-called Infinite Space Lord God who deliberately makes trouble, then it is obviously only Roger himself who has the reason to blame.
What is this?!
It doesn't matter if you don't have the protagonist's aura, the mentally handicapped aura is only effective for yourself, and it seems tragic to carry it that is effective for your teammates. If you add the aura of bad luck...... Nima's feeling of infinite space for female frequency is really better than dead!!
That being said, he wouldn't do such a stupid thing as wanting Roger to launch a mortal charge against the cosmic monster army now. What's more, judging from the original plot that doesn't know where it was destroyed, the cosmic monsters won't be too desperate here. And even if it's a real fight, if the other party only has a stellar level no matter how you calculate it, you can't beat it and you can escape.
Then, there is one of the most difficult trump cards that you have not played - GUNBUSTER.
Even if it was for the sake of testing, it was time for this unfinished machine to make its debut. Otherwise, DG will definitely force Roger to change the name of this mission plane to "Incompetent Instructor Reckless Memory......
Hey, it seems to be a little off-topic.
When Roger came back to his senses from the boring intra-team spirit link lift, Admiral Tashiro had just issued the order, "Launch all the bullets, hit wherever you go!" Helpless instructions.
This is probably one of the few adventurous orders of the old captain, after all, with his experience and ability, he really can't command a subspace operation with all the unknown parameters. And Roger and Jung knew better that the subspace attack of the cosmic monster was not actually the goal, and the other party was probably just trying to force the entire Exelion fleet back to the normal plane.
For the top brass of the Exelion fleet, with the exception of a few people with authority such as Admiral Tashiro and the first mate, this WARP pop-up encounter was a battle that could not be won even if they tried their best. Even if some people notice that the fleet casualties and battle losses are surprisingly small, they are usually seen as a sign of a return to light or a last-ditch battle.
For Admiral Tashiro and the first mate themselves, this is a battle of great sin that will still attract an endless army of cosmic monsters even if they can return to Earth in a crushing defeat. THEY KNEW THAT THE SEVENTH GANAKUL WAS PARKED WITH A SECRET WEAPON THAT COULD TURN THE TIDE OF THE BATTLE, BUT THEY WOULD RATHER NOT USE GUNBUSTER THAN LET THE ENEMY INCREASE EVEN THE SLIGHTEST BIT OF IMPORTANCE AND HOSTILITY TOWARDS EARTH.
As for the Samsara team, who have basically been able to control the situation so far, Roger and they are thinking about how to wipe out the remnants of the cosmic monsters that have seen the power of GUNBUSTER in the future, so that they can spread the power of GUNBUSTER to the main force of Silver Heart.
Although these three tactical ideas do not overlap much at all, at the beginning and middle of this pop-up encounter, they are unexpectedly consistent in terms of actual tactical performance-
It's nothing more than the same old thing, the shield is wildly opened, the laser cannon is swept away, and the photon torpedo is pinned down at a medium distance.
In hand-to-hand combat, Space Fighter V is the main force, and the TOP troops insist on avoiding the opponent's long-range light shell bombardment as the first priority on the premise of compressing the distance between each other as much as possible and forming groups to support each other......
How to say it, under the premise that the software, hardware, and number are basically far inferior to this stellar cosmic monster detachment, whether it is a smart person or a stupid person, whether it is an insider or a person with an unknown truth, there seems to be only one option left for everyone.
The good thing to say is protracted warfare, and the ugly point is H/R tactics~~
That's right, in the Hero Invincible game, as long as there are funds, they will continue to recruit people to consume the enemy's advance points. Usually, under the premise that you can't muster up any strength at hand, you can make the opponent arrive at your own city gate even a day late, which is a victory, and it is a rogue tactic for computers.
(What?) What is not used for people, you ask? Playing this hand in the battle, aren't you afraid that the opponent will crawl over from the network cable and beat you? )
"Under the conditions of sub-light speed combat, with the support of the Urashima effect, if the plot of the original book that was delayed for half a year is used here, it will definitely buy time for the entire earth." This is the righteous name given by Jung's side.
This can't be said to be wrong, when Roger was revisiting the original plot of this plane, he often sighed that if it weren't for the disparity in the number of enemies and friends in the fifth episode, and the hundreds of millions of cosmic monsters made the Earth Army unstoppable, could he have used this HR tactic to delay time......
So if we turn the question to this encounter specifically, since the Exelion fleet is basically intact, the size of the enemy cosmic monsters is roughly kept at the stellar level - it seems that there is really some delay worth. As for the part of the annihilation war that only the reincarnators will "whim".
Since it can be delayed, of course, it is equivalent to making the other side indirectly concentrate its forces. Next, as long as Jung's tactical arrangement is not too clumsy, and the DG side can help a little.
THE COUNTDOWN TO THE LAUNCH OF GUNBUSTER HAS BASICALLY BEGUN.
Then, what is needed is to create a traditional routine of the plane heroines who are damaged and have to return to the ship to replace them. I believe that Kasumi Amano and Noriko Takaya don't need any deliberate prompts to remember the powerful weapon parked in the seventh Ganaku, which is theoretically enough to turn the tide of the battle.
"Hey, watching the protagonist body as a savior, flying away from your eyes with a special effects propulsion method, is there really no awkwardness in your heart?"
"Hey, this body is nominally supervised by you, the chief instructor of the TOP troops, and the hero of space warfare. Isn't it a bit ugly to take the lead in this kind of low-level black activity now? ”
The battle of words between the two reincarnators was easily won by Jung's side as usual.
So Roger began to feel a little nostalgic for the DG ontology that was still far away in Orion - not that he felt that the latter was more eloquent or eloquent than Jung, but mainly because someone really couldn't accept the sad fact that "he was completely powerless in ordinary bickering or complaining projects".
This also indirectly means that both reincarnators are currently quite preferred. Even if you are still on the battlefield, you already have enough room for routine boredom......
The ease of the reincarnation team was actually quite well disguised, but Admiral Tashiro's side was purely due to the fact that the battle situation had indeed changed in favor of the Exelion fleet, and after exchanging a clear look with the first mate, he symbolically straightened his military hat, and at the same time quietly moved a little closer to the back of the chair.
Soon, other high-ranking officers in the headquarters and staff officers received reassuring good news from all corners of the battlefield. As a result, these ordinary people who don't understand that their situation is very different from the so-called "original" are also slightly relaxed.
"Tsk...... IT'S A PITY, WHEN I WAS TRAINING NORIKO TAKAYA TO LAUNCH THE BUSTER-BEAM, I HAD HER PRACTICE THE SPICE BEAM SHAPE, SO WHY DID IT STILL LOOK LIKE AN L-SHAPED ELBOW HILA LIMA RAY FIRING METHOD JUST NOW? ”
DG said that it is better for you to go back and discuss this kind of problem with Chen Yi, and not to waste precious time. It is important to know that the current few seconds of the road are converted to the normal time, and the time lapse is calculated in months. ”
The reincarnation team, on its part, is obviously also consciously or unconsciously evading questions such as "to what extent has the original plot been distorted". Even if DG uses the clone to repeatedly scroll and broadcast the original work, in the same time period, "Is there only the main ship and GUNBUSTER left?" At this point, Roger and Jung, the two cheeky guys, are still pretending to complain to each other and continue to ignore them.
But it's no wonder that they deliberately want to play selective amnesia, after all, it seems that the big picture is basically settled at the moment. In the original book, it was only the cosmic monster fleet that withdrew from the solar system in an instant after the "boss" was downed, and at this moment it was still tightly entangled by the Exelion fleet, which barely maintained its combat effectiveness in the thick smoke. Both the Troop class and the cruiser class are basically limited to cruising speeds well below sub-light speeds.
This is the best combat speed that the Exelion fleet can steadily suppress by relying solely on the automatic fire of each ship. And the number of unmanned space fighters V, which has been constantly assembled since the beginning of the war, has finally begun to increase significantly on the battlefield. This fact obviously means that the attack of the cosmic monster side has been significantly lower than the combined speed of the fighters on the human side.
In other words, if the human fleet has always maintained its maximum production speed, it is clear that the attack from the Cosmic Monster Fleet has quickly fallen to the range that the human side can withstand after GUNBUSTER enters the war.
What should have come has come after all.
Roger had been accustomed to being scolded countless times by countless different people before, but despite this, he still firmly maintained his posture of being incompatible with this leap peak plane, and firmly maintained his theory that did not feel at all-
"The end of the fourth episode of the original book is not reasonable at all! If defeating the boss can make the other party retreat, then wouldn't it be better for the cosmic monster to concentrate its firepower to sink the Exelion during the time that GUNBUSTER was fighting with that cruiser-class? Is this the unique aesthetic that you deduced to belong to the cosmic monster that must follow~~"
And on Jung's side, although she is very happy to work with DG to repeatedly rectify an incompetent crow's mouth instructor, it doesn't make sense of a problem that a reincarnation on the armed side can think of, but she, a reincarnation on the intellectual side, has no way to deal with it, right?
As a result, not only "GUNBUSTER defeated the cosmic monster boss, but the enemy continued to fight to the death", but even "it only hit the opponent's mini-boss, and it was only the level of the medium boss." Therefore, at the same time as the boss falls, the cadres of the enemy's four heavenly kings must come forward to demonstrate", Jung has made a plan in advance.
As for the specific response measures...... It's incredibly simple:
"The miserable situation of which crow's mouth is cursed by the crow's mouth will be solved by itself!"
SO, WHILE GUNBUSTER IS SURROUNDED BY A NEW HYBRID CRUISER-CLASS COSMIC MONSTER, AN INCOMPETENT BAD LUCK INSTRUCTOR IS THROWN DIRECTLY ON THE RX-7 AND EJECTED.
At this time, it was less than half a minute before the Buster shock fist took effect, and the enemy's flagship was shattered.
And those large hybrid cosmic monsters with a few shadows appeared from the explosion dust for a few seconds.
If it weren't for the way the powerful enemy appeared too shocking, I'm afraid someone in the headquarters would have reacted a long time ago, why did Coach Roger, who had been sitting not far from him before, suddenly run into the RX-7?
Therefore, what happened next, which was originally avoided as much as possible in the reincarnation team, was doubly deeply imprinted in the minds of most of the audience present.
SURROUNDED BY COSMIC MONSTERS, GUNBUSTER IS IN MUCH BETTER CONDITION THAN WHEN HE WAS STABBED IN THE CHEST BY AN ENEMY FLAGSHIP, AND EVEN THE BLIND CAN SEE THAT THE MECH'S ABILITY TO REPAIR ITSELF IS FAR BEYOND NORMAL LEVELS. (And let's be honest, neither the RX-7 nor the warships in the fleet have any self-healing modules from the very beginning.) However, Admiral Tashiro and the first mate both knew that the operation of the GUNBUSTER itself was not stable, and if the previous information from the research team was correct, the super machine would have less than three minutes to move.
Yes, it's just activity time, not battle time.
If you calculate the usual cost of three times, it is impossible to destroy the enemy boss group in front of you and where you don't know where to hide in front of you.
Theoretically, even the addition of an RX-7 will not change anything. Even if this RX-7 was personally piloted by the chief instructor of the TOP force, the first cosmic hero of mankind, the result would probably be the same.
It's nothing more than a few milliseconds longer to postpone the total extinction time.
As Admiral Tashiro was ready to order Exelion to immediately and forcibly accelerate to a critical state, and when Noriko Takaya and Kasumi Amano began to search for a self-detonation link, it was clear that everyone was thinking along the lines above.
In short, after the reincarnation team was crookedly taking down Admiral Tashiro, the first mate was actually able to take advantage of the situation without much effort, so what followed was the installation of the FOLD device that seemed to be long but did not delay for long.
SINCE THE NUMBER OF SCIENTISTS ON BOARD THE SHIP IS NOT LARGE, MANY MEMBERS OF THE GUNBUSTER DEVELOPMENT TEAM HAVE BEEN SECONDED. Even so, most of the work was done by the DG clones on their own under various covers. And during this period, the entire Exelion fleet did not slow down - who knows if the Dao Universe Monster will directly rush up to the battle? - Afterwards, the decision-makers of the fleet also praised the enthusiasm and fruits of the work of the seconded developers......
So from another point of view, the GUNBUSTER manufacturing work, which seemed to have been successfully completed, has now been postponed in a grand manner. Otherwise, the work that Koichiro Ota did alone in the original book is now being done by so many top scientists—although there must be a lot of techniques brought by the reincarnation people across the planes—and it is hard not to doubt that the construction period is always delayed.
At least for the delay in boarding the GUNBUSTER for the actual test, Kasumi Amano was obviously quite skeptical. This must be the after-effects of Roger's previous extraterrestrial theory blowing up the atmosphere. Aliens are so powerful, how can they replace the entire fleet with a FOLD device without blinking, how can a single 200-meter body not be able to handle it?
But anyway, my sister knew that even if she asked the reincarnation team directly, she would be called back by Jung's simple and clear "no comment". And from her point of view, the unfamiliar third voice in the Psychic Link public channel has been appearing more and more unscrupulously lately, and no matter how she listens, this "third person" who has never appeared is the real scientific research center of the so-called alien group opposite.
If it weren't for Kasumi Amano's careful investigation and belief that there was no such voice master in the entire GUNBUSTER team, she might have directly defined Roger and Jung as puppets who had been secretly manipulated.
For Kasumi Amano, it's a good thing that the aliens continue to pretend to be above board, but the presence of that unfamiliar voice still makes her a little uneasy. Not to mention that even if DG appears "occasionally" on the public channel, the kind of commanding spirit that emanates from the bones will make the posture full, just from the fact that Jung, who is usually so arrogant, has no resistance to the command of that voice-
"Those two guys are still puppets, right?"
But after all, this can only be a casual thought in the bottom of my heart.,My sister doesn't want to break some alien taboo because of such a trivial matter.,And then be fiddled with some temporary disposal plan or something-in some of the anime works that Noriko Takaya occasionally talks to her.,The protagonists often face this critical situation.。
Oh yes, since the hot-blooded and simple heroine Noriko Takaya is mentioned, it shows that the latter has also been quietly pulled into the spiritual channel.
As for the process of building a spiritual link, it's a bit of a long story. Noriko Takaya didn't believe it simply to the extent that Instructor Roger claimed to be an alien. And it's precisely because she's quite a bit of a tendon and she's quite interested in related anime works, so if the reincarnation team really wants to adopt that kind of setting, it needs to build a sufficiently rigorous and logical view of the world.
This is very different from Amano Kasumi's side, because even if my sister pretends to believe it on the surface, she must not believe it in her heart, so there is no need to bother to really convince her. But Noriko's side is different, and when she is not convinced, her suspicions are real. But once she is given the irrefutable "truth", she chooses to believe it and will stick to it completely.
Or, in other words, my sister has full self-confidence, and then she doesn't seem to have been hit enough since she was a child, so she can always maintain her inner firmness. On the contrary, it is Noriko Takaya's side, even though the tragic fate in the original book has been rewritten a lot, but from the loss of her father to the wanton ridicule of the Okinawa women's high school, she can only take a tortuous path of constantly catching up and constantly being inspired by the back of the front.
To be honest, there is not much difference between these two mentalities, they are both typical immaturity anyway - and even in the current team of reincarnators, it is Roger who is clearly biased towards the former, and Jung tends to be the latter - the opportunity to really promote them to grow one step further and even transform has not really arrived, at least until this WARP is caught up by the cosmic monster......
BY THE WAY, IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT FROM THIS PERSPECTIVE, JUNG'S CHOICE TO OPEN UP THE SPIRITUAL LINK TO NORIKO TAKAYA IN THE NEAR FUTURE IS OBVIOUSLY ALSO TO MAKE THE MOST IMPORTANT PREPARATIONS FOR GUNBUSTER'S PERFECT DEBUT.
By the way, the work of convincing Noriko Takaya was left to DG.
Although the latter is still far away in Orion, for a senior otaku, the female voice AI that cannot be heard and touched is obviously more in line with her aesthetics or expectations. With DG's massive database, as well as the investigation of Noriko Takaya on the days when Roger had nothing to do, and the collection and collation of animation works in this mission plane, it was too easy to please Noriko Takaya without moving.
A big reason why Noriko and Smith became boyfriend and girlfriend in the original book was that she felt lonely because she was excluded intentionally or unintentionally. Now as the ace driver of the TOP force, although she has no one to go back and exclude her, the part that is an animation house is still not widely recognized, after all, for girls of the same age, fashion shopping and even snacks are the eternal talking points. But before the battle of the original Silver Heart, in the scene where the two heroines reunited, Noriko's room obviously still has a model being made......
To be able to get Roger's DG, it couldn't be easier to get Noriko Takaya.
Getting along with a teenage girl is easier and brighter than with a guy like Roger who has been housed for thousands of years, right? (Jung's side actually agrees with this)
My sister's side found out that Noriko was being attacked by that strange voice, but from her point of view, it didn't seem like there was any need for her younger sister to be saved. And compared to animated comics, she herself would rather use her rare leisure time to read. And it's actually quite embarrassing to always have no common topic with Noriko like before. As for the unfamiliar, disguised AI voice, although it can't be said that all the houses in the world are good people or harmless, the destructive power that the house can form is too limited, even if it is left alone, it doesn't matter.
From an objective point of view, the appearance of DG can only make Noriko Takaya's energy more concentrated. Body-motion manipulation system plus a universal AI,This is the standard (super department) protagonist character template.,Even if it's replaced by a real department.,Amuro will make himself a cute Harrow...... In short, Noriko Takaya is now full of belief in victory, and even if she doesn't have a body for the time being, she will still devote herself to boring repetitive training day after day.
Then, consciously or unconsciously, I was looking forward to the day when GUNBUSTER officially made its debut under his own pilot.
BY THE WAY, BY THE WAY, AMANO KASUMI WAS CONSCIOUSLY OR UNINTENTIONALLY ALIENATED FROM GUNBUSTER DRIVING.
It's not that her sister is overly suspicious or anything, for example, even though she now sees Roger and Jung as puppets of DG, she doesn't feel that her position is much better than that of the two guys who have been together for nearly a year. As an older sister who has been stared by people since she was a child, Kasumi Amano knows better than anyone that she feels like she is free and seems to be prominent.
It's not that I deliberately want to rebel occasionally and go against the so-called established fate, my sister's side just found that she might really be more suitable for the role of commander of the TOP force for the time being. That's exactly what Instructor Roger arranged before, right?
Thinking a little deeper, the instructor and Jung handed over the strongest mech to Noriko, the TOP troops to themselves, and re-protected the entire fleet with FOLD.
What is left for them to be theirs?
In the last pursuit, the coach's seemingly weightless battle, next time I am afraid it will not only be a repeat, but Jung himself will tear off the mask of ordinary people and fight side by side with Instructor Roger, right?
Although driving the GUNBUSTER with Noriko may make you a hero sooner. But the coach who usually seems to be reliable, but after a little contact, he will find that he is a little unreliable, but he is always extremely reliable at critical moments, but he always seems to be silently pointing out another path to himself.
CHASE ACTION FROM LUXION, FROM REMOTE-CONTROLLED COMBAT MANEUVERS TO SINGLE-PLAYER AGAINST COSMIC MONSTERS......
Although I don't know what the reason for this one-way payment is, although Amano Kasumi sometimes wonders maliciously, is the instructor's attitude of acting as a last resort always commanded by DG? But more often than not, she still felt that it didn't look bad just to watch that fool walk awkwardly in front of her.
Because it seems that it is the path that I should have walked by myself.
It's actually a completely different path from Jung.
So, let's go on gracefully as always.
……
The subjective time of the Exelion fleet did not take long, and the refitting required for the temporary FOLD was already preliminarily completed.
Due to the reincarnation team's intentional or unintentional emphasis on the learning ability of cosmic monsters, these FOLD devices have been set as disposable products from the time they are released, and even FOLD crystals that seem to be the key to the main control but are actually meaningless have been added to the drive link. Then, in various simulation demonstrations, after all the ships of the fleet have successfully completed a FOLD, the main body of these devices will announce the end of their mission with the shattering of the main control FOLD.
Anyway, the technical staff is basically in Jung's hands, so this kind of deception is done above board, even if the design drawings are brought back to the Earth Space Army afterwards, there is no need to worry about revealing any flaws.
For example, the FOLD crystal has long been quietly announced as a unique new concept crystal on the Soviet side. And it doesn't have the conditions for mass production, and the number is extremely rare - Jung actually considered whether to add another condition that "can be obtained from cosmic monsters", but it seems a bit too deliberate, and if GUNBUSTER is completed in the future, killing hundreds of millions of cosmic monsters and not being able to collect this new concept crystal, it seems to be a troublesome matter.
I won't go into the details of the technical aspects, but this one-time thing is ostensibly for the sake of Admiral Yasuda and the old-fashioned captains of the ship, making it look like "we won't interfere too much with your driving habits, and this disposable device will be treated as an ancient graded rocket launcher", which is also one of the prerequisites for the FOLD plan to be passed in the shortest possible time.
In fact, the fleet decision-makers have tacitly accepted the premise that "the FOLD method is a desperate bet to get rid of the enemy's pursuit". Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, this device cannot be activated a second time, and if it still can't get rid of the cosmic monster at that time, it will have to fight the whole fleet against the water, and the enemy must not be lured to the earth anyway!
Compared to the low-level mistake of Admiral Tashiro in the original book, who only took a slight precaution and was directly chased and killed by the cosmic monster, there are only so many people who can help the Exelion fleet on the decision-making level of the reincarnation team......
However, they are all old guys with at least decades of combat experience, and everyone has seen this very thoroughly since Admiral Tashiro. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that they were trying to preserve their strength for humanity as much as possible, these old captains could have directly transferred their fleets right now and completely wiped out with the cosmic monsters.
However, in such a hasty decisive battle, the will of the upper echelons may not be firm, and the ordinary officers and soldiers below will not even know what is going on in a battle that they will lose, and they will not be able to fight until they have to do so.
Even if you are really cornered, you must at least give the majority of people who are still basically in the dark a reason, which seems to happen naturally under normal logic, and it is still unfortunate and unavoidable after many efforts.
Otherwise, if nothing else, the science lecture organized by Jung was enough to scare most young people who have not experienced strong winds and waves directly to the point of mental breakdown.
Therefore, this FOLD time difference operation has formed a perfect logical chain from the perspective of the natives of the plane. Even the half of the accomplices of Kasumi Amano didn't see anything too wrong.
After all, just like the top of the fleet wants to keep the fact that "humans are the germs of the universe" a secret for the time being, what the reincarnation team has to do is to hide the terrifying ability of the enemy's "subspace war" from the beginning. That kind of thing, no matter how you look at it, is an existence that can make Admiral Tashiro completely desperate with them. So although the thinking is a little clumsy, this is already the best solution that Jung can come up with after racking his brains.
In fact, both she and Roger knew quite well that the mid-distance FOLD that had been added here for a long time would not be able to completely throw away the cosmic monster. On the contrary, there is a 90% chance that this new jumping method will be exposed and learned and thoroughly studied by the cosmic monsters.
But this retrofit is definitely worth the money!
At this point, until the FOLD was successful, the Exelion fleet did not search for any trailing enemies for the first time, so there was plenty of time to carry out a direct encrypted WARP to the solar system. It was really proved when it was attacked by cosmic monsters in the subspace as in the original book.
If you measure it by the original plot, when the entire Exelion fleet was folded and the initial WARP was successful, and the subspace was successfully infiltrated, the cosmic monster obviously took at least half the time longer than the "normal situation" before launching the first attack on the human side.
Moreover, this attack did not receive any real results at all, except for triggering the alarm of the attack on the Exelion fleet.
