If the Extinction Order has already been transported to the ground by a transport ship, then launching from the ground is much simpler compared to breaking through the layers of the biomechanical ship's blockade and the interception of ground orbit fire from space.
In fact, there is no need to launch at all; it can simply be detonated directly in an open environment, leaving no chance for the Insect Race to intercept.
The planned detonation time is one month later.
This one month is naturally the time for the ground forces to evacuate.
The fact that the Extinction Order will be detonated was not disclosed to the frontline troops; only high-ranking commanders like Salius, Matins, and Xi Rui knew.
The concealment of this information is aimed at avoiding panic.
The human forces on the ground are indeed brave warriors, but knowing about a one-month evacuation deadline would inevitably lead to unnecessary chaos.
Avoiding it if possible is the best option.
