"What's the situation?" Yang Hui received the news and immediately convened a plenary meeting, summoning all the senior generals of the Promis Army. Howard Glass also attended the meeting with high-level political officials.
The topic was naturally the request for help from the G Ship Group. Due to the obstruction of the FOLD fault, the communication between the 25th Ship Group and the G Ship Group was not real-time, but was delayed by five days.
"It's not optimistic." Howard Glass shook his head, "This is the distress communication from Ship Group G. Take a look."
Yang Hui walked into the conference room and sat down. The lights dimmed and the distress communication from Ship Group G began to play on the screen.
"Help! Help! Those bugs have invaded Main Island! Please! Ah~..."
A very brief communication, with a dim red light as the background. There was a mess behind the person who sent the communication. Broken pipes could be seen hanging casually without any attention. There were injured people lying on the ground or walking slowly by supporting each other behind them.
The video was shaking a lot, the picture was not very clear, and there was a sound of constantly hitting the armor of the battleship, and then... it ended.
It can be seen from the last picture that the communication was suddenly interrupted. It should be that Vajra broke through the armor of the battleship and directly attacked the bridge. The person who appeared in the video... must also be in danger.
"...Is this a communication from five days ago?" Yang Hui frowned and asked Howard Glass.
"Yes, although Ship Group G is not far from the 25th Ship Group, due to the existence of the FOLD fault, all communications have been blocked. If Captain William hadn't desperately broken through and came to the 25th Ship Group for help, we might not have been able to survive.
I know that Ship Group G was attacked by Vajra." Howard Glass said.
Yang Hui has also studied the communication methods in this world, and they all use FOLD technology for remote communication.
Hyperspace resonance crystal, also known as FOLD crystal, vibrates at a specific wavelength to cause a spatial resonance phenomenon, making next-generation communications and hyperspace navigation possible. The crystal increases Fold's communication capabilities by more than 10 times.
This technology itself is very advanced and can achieve real-time communication dozens of light-years away. Even the most advanced quantum communication equipment in Promis Fortress has a maximum real-time communication range of less than one light-year.
But this technology has a fatal flaw, that is, encountering a FOLD fault, which is an environment that is likely to be encountered in the universe. Once a FOLD fault is encountered, not only will communication be blocked, but even FOLD jumps will not be possible, and one can only think
Ways to bypass the FOLD fault.
This is why Captain William of Ship Group G successfully arrived at Ship Group 25 five days after the breakout.
Of course, it is not impossible to solve the problem of communication, but it is very troublesome. Relay Pod, which is a relay communication relay device, needs to be arranged at the FOLD fault in advance to avoid communication delays caused by the Fold fault, but that is only done when necessary.
The equipment that will be used will generally not be arranged in advance.
"It's difficult."
"Yeah, in five days, they should have..."
Everyone present knew that five days was enough for Vajra's army to completely wipe out the G Ship Group. Even if they went to the rescue, they would probably only find floating wreckage and corpses.
"How is Captain William's situation?" Yang Hui asked.
"It's not life-threatening. It's a long flight and there's a lack of water and food. It's just weakness and dehydration. You can recover after a period of rest." Howard Glass said.
"In a coma now?"
"Yes."
"Did you reveal the details of Ship Group G before you fell into coma?"
"No, he was already unconscious when we took him back to the 25th Ship Group."
"Well..." Yang Hui thought for a moment and decided directly, "Get ready for war. Ray Bill, Flit, Gerhart, and Char. You will set off immediately as the vanguard. Place Relay Pods along the way to keep communications open. The rest of the team will
Return to your respective posts immediately and prepare for the expedition!"
"Yang Hui, is it really necessary?" Howard Glass wanted to object. After all, five days had passed and the G Ship Group had most likely been destroyed. He had experienced the strength of Vajra, and it was only a very small-scale attack that almost failed
It caused huge losses to the 25th convoy.
What G Ship Group encountered was an attack by a large army. Even if the technical level of G Ship Group was not comparable to that of 25 Ship Group, he did not think that G Ship Group could survive such a dominant group. The human race was still too young.
Already.
Furthermore, even if G Ship Group really persists, they may not be able to help G Ship Group repel Vajra's attack, and they may even get themselves involved.
"We must go." Yang Hui said firmly, "G Ship Group is also a part of mankind. It has entered the environment of the universe. If mankind cannot unite as one, how can we meet greater challenges? So even if there is a very slim hope
, we must also go to the rescue."
"...I understand. I will be responsible for informing the citizens, and I will leave the fleet expedition to you." Howard Glass agreed with Yang Hui's statement and agreed to the fleet expedition to rescue the G fleet.
Now, Howard Glass and the top political leaders can leave. They only need to know the big decision about the direction of the convoy, and then they can deal with the part of the work they are responsible for.
At the same time, members of the four fleets of Rebir, Fleet, Gerhart and Char also left. During this period, their fleets were on duty and were ready for level 3 battles at any time, so there was no need for other cumbersome procedures.
You can attack.
The remaining people are other fleet members taking turns to rest.
"Are we going to face Vajra's army now? Is it too early?" Katie was a little worried. Having experienced the ELS battle, she knew very well how insignificant and powerless the young race of humans was in front of the overlord race of the universe.
.
"This step will eventually come. After the fleet is fully upgraded, we will not only have the option of shrinking our defenses when facing Vajra." Yang Hui said to everyone.
"Will Ship Group G really be destroyed so easily? Is it their conspiracy?" Malu asked.
Everyone who knew the true thoughts of those crazy people in Ship Group G could not help but think of this question.
"It's very possible that it was their idea to take advantage of the opportunity of being attacked and destroyed by Vajra to hide in the darkness. I even suspect that their research on FOLD waves and singing has made some progress. This attack was their deliberate attempt to attract Vajra.
They went there, or... they wrote, directed and acted in a scene." Yang Hui speculated that in the original plot, the 25th Fleet arrived at the place where the G Fleet was attacked, but did not find the G Fleet's flagship Macross Galaxy.
, not even the wreckage was found, and simply disappeared.
It suddenly appeared again in the last battle, and it was in perfect condition. It was obvious that it had not experienced serious damage, or that it had been completely repaired, so Yang Hui made such speculation.
"So we have to go this time. If we are lucky, we might be able to catch them before they hide!"
