You've been sighing more often these days, Taro, and the idea of not matching the situation comes to mind. When he makes a bitter look at the damage reports Xiaomei recites regularly, he looks up that he shouldn't stay like this. There was starting to be some damage to the RS4 where the proximity determination was being made, and there seemed to be no time for clumps.
"RS1 to EAP2. Commander, are you still here?
Slap him properly in the face, Taro with a calm voice. A few seconds late from that voice, the comms said, "Oh, there he is. There he is." "He replies in a hurry.
"That's right. I did. By the way, the question is, is it difficult to entrust command to someone, right?
Taro strives to keep the rush and rush as low as possible and emits normally.
"" What the hell are you talking about... even if you're replacing me? There's no way you can do that. ""
A response from the comms machine. Taro nodded individually that he was going to, looking up a little.
"Okay, I need to talk to you about a little secret, so please install this guy. It's a cryptographic software that doesn't stay on the recorder. It's disposable, but it's convenient."
- "Program transmission target EAP2 cryptographic communication ver1.1" -
"What are you..."
"Please set it up"
Taro clearly speaks word for word. Silence comes from beyond the comms machine, and a lot of time flows.
- "Cryptographic Communication Program: Himitsu No. 3 Communication Link… Connection" -
Report to Taro's BISHOP that a new communication has been connected. Taro takes a sigh of relief, closing his eyes and concentrating his consciousness. I guess Marr and Xiaomei are eager to see Taro's trends, they are doing combat manipulation without saying anything.
"Yes, then I will speak to myself now. This is" nobody's asking, "and I was wondering if you'd like it to be your own idea.
Taro adds "Except for Marl and Xiaomei" in his head. After some time, the response "" I see "" returns.
"With the exception of EAP2's shield ship unit, turn all strikers. Run as far as you can from the enemy front unit. They're warping behind us, and our company's fleet is on the front line, so I don't think we're going to be harmed without a shield ship."
Eyes on the radar screen, Taro checking the situation once now.
"Join us as we are and pick up each fleet in charge of de-mining. The route out of the CE fleet to the ATT fleet would be good. We should have some time before the enemy battleship warps in, so we should be on time enough...... Damn, you rocked. Ume, what's the situation?
To the shock felt on the ship, Taro turns the microphone off and turns around his neck.
"Looks like the enemy has a gunboat, they've started shooting at us. The shake was due to evasive behavior and has not been harmed"
"Taylor, it's time to shoot each other. Finish it as soon as you can."
Taro answers by giving them a thumbs up and opens his mouth to the comms machine again.
"Continue. Once the second wave arrives militarily, there's probably no winning shot here. It doesn't necessarily mean the third or fourth wave won't come, and I think we should retreat here and observe the other guy. Withdrawal by overdrive takes place sequentially in a consolidated number, and if pursued, counterattack. And then we leave again on overdrive."
"" I see… but what if they persist? ""
"I don't think so, but I don't mind if it does. The main force of the opponent should also take some time to warp into pursuit, and the pursuit battle will also take the form of an equivalence with the force of war we have here and now. If so, as you can see, we are in our favor."
As Phantom pointed out a while ago, the enemy is apparently getting geared up specifically for an ambush by warp. The percentage of damage was clearly progressing in this one's favor, and without the presence of reinforcements, the win was likely to be definitive.
"" Hmm. But, uh, what? If we pull out before we're at a disadvantage, wouldn't that be considered cowardice? ""
To the voice from the comms machine, Taro suppresses the feeling that it's a scream and it's going to happen.
"It's okay. It is normal to fight when it is advantageous and withdraw when it is unfavourable. Instead, I think it would be a medal if you could keep this number dominant on your opponent and retreat with less damage. I'll cover it."
Silence persists for a while as to whether you have any idea what Taro said. When Taro turns to the thought that he won't be able to push another one, he mouths it that comes to mind.
"What's more, the coordinates of the current location remain, so you can also perform an analysis of the opponent's combat power after the retreat. You should be able to guess some, depending on how well the drive particles are active and what they are. It's an impeccable effect as a frontline sentry. I think it's harder than that, don't you?
With that said, Taro is frightened by the shaken hull again. The next shock was huge, obviously due to the bullet.
"It's enemy sniping. Shield residue 93%. We've got 280 seconds to reach the enemy. Ship 3 is smashing. There's something wrong with the observation device."
Taro turns to the display for Xiaomei's report. Inside the flock of enemies, the figure of a ship that continues to shell as it retreats.
"Is that it... catch up, hey wow. Maybe if I hit the front line and chased him. Mr. Taiki, can you do something about that?
"" Leave it to me. I'll give you a tough shot. "
At Taro's request, a bombing squad to change course. Taro once again admires the convenience of the onboard aircraft, but immediately turns his attention back to EAP2. Attacking enemies is important, but it has to take precedence over that.
"Please. If I could, I wouldn't leave you..."
If EAP2 continued to act out of common sense like this, Taro was going to escape without question. I'm not going to go out with suicide, and I'm responsible for my employees. But then, naturally, other fleets. In other words, it will greatly affect other companies. Rising Sun's fleet is equivalent to 25% of the current fleet.
As I pray, Taro keeps waiting, releasing a second rail gun, locking on and sending support for the fleet.
"" I'm sure you're right. ""
To the voice from the comms, Taro is about to lose his power. But a flashing decision punch keeps his face up.
I have a personal connection to Lynn Bulkhorn.
"Hmm, first shield fleet, retreat second shield fleet. All remaining ships turn 145 degrees. Near Target RS1 Fleet"
Sakura Ma Takasaki, vice president of Takasaki Shipbuilding, said so with a cough, he panicked at the silence that spread across the bridge.
"Come on, let's get this over with. Do as you are told!!
Sakura stretches her fingers out and emits strongly toward her deputy. The deputy looked at Sakura like he had been moaning for a while, but he looked stiff and said, "Roger!!" Returns the voice.
"You really haven't found out around... that's a great encryption capability"
The communication records accessed by BISHOP did not record any earlier exchanges with the captain of RS1. When viewed, the communication equipment was in the form of a slightly more complex noise received and did not appear to be perceived as communication.
"Captain, I have a question for you. As it stands, we're headed to the enemy warp-in point.
With some skeptical eyes, her deputy. Sakura hums her nose at it, pointing to the radar screen.
"Rescue the Friends, and once this place leaves. Perhaps the enemy is pointing the main fleet, and we have no chance of winning. We should separate this place from the reconnaissance and bring the information back to the main unit."
Sakura describes what the captain of RS1 told him as a rough one. The deputy begins to tremble as if he had something to think about.
"Dear Sakura... You've been very splendid... Hey, did you hear that!! Power reconnaissance!!
The deputy bursts into tears, but raises his voice towards his men around him. Sakura feels reassured that the deputy she hasn't seen in years remains the same as she used to be, and that she has not been able to interact with RS1.
"It's been five years since then..."
Sakura reminds me of my rushed days at the Epsilon branch of Takasaki Shipbuilding when I finally get there.
Sakura grew up with little freedom as the presidential lady of a large company that underpins EAP. I got most of the stuff if I wanted, and everyone knelt in front of her. In the maternal bloodstream there were those who drew the flow of Imperial aristocracy, and sometimes socialized with people at random.
It was only after she was assigned to the Epsilon system as branch manager.
in the heart of the Empire. There were no people there to spoil her, a fully competitive society in which strength dominated everything. She did the same extraction as she did when she was in the Alpha-side star range where the EAP existed, but the results were scattered. She was soon beaten to the point where even the branch Epsilon withdrew, but at the same time she was able to calmly look back at herself. It then took her five years to rebuild the branch and grab the seat of vice president.
"But you wouldn't normally think it would be a vendetta..."
One, blurry sakura.
In her five years at the Imperial Center, she was able to gain sufficient knowledge of management and shipbuilding, but on the contrary, she was unable to learn how to live in outer space. There are no barbaric things like war or anything like that happening in the Imperial Centre, and I hardly see Wynd. Even if I was there, most of the time the escort's security company did something about it.
"Can't you think about it right now... but what do we do now? You want me to talk to you again?
Sakura moves her gaze properly and sees the comms. I don't know what kind of person the president of RS1 is, but it was definitely a wind that I knew how to fight. There's a carrier on the list, but she didn't believe it. What world has a carrier made up of battleships 50% of the ships in its possession?
"Taylor Ichijo... from the sound of Ichijo, are you from the Alpha side? No, there's a possibility of a pseudonym... or who is this guy?"
I wonder why you have so little personal information, Sakura worried with a rugged face. The information on board the data bank is not only issued by the Empire, but also from research companies and third parties examined by something. Nevertheless, the lack of data must have erased the record of how good it is.
"The Imperial Army...... that would also be something, a pretty special position. That's not what I can do. Yeah, it must be."
When Sakura is convinced of her thoughts for now, she hands the comms again. An ancient proverb taught by her father, the president, held her back strongly.
"Mochi's a hottie."
Along with the sentiment that I always think of whenever I utter this word, "what is a mochi", she ran the cryptographic function again that she had just received.
