Report, the vanguard has sent the battle plan

Moro quickly took the plan and started reviewing it. It showed that the vanguard planned to send the shuttle s.h.i.+p first to head straight for Blue Star and destroy the enemys headquarters.

Input the related data of their plan into the simulator, lets see what it shows

Soon, one after another, simulation results appeared on the big screen.

After a hundred runs, all were successful.

After a thousand runs, still, all were successful.

Even after ten thousand runs, all were still successful.

Great!

Moro was overjoyed and said with a smile, Tell Seth to give special praise to the crew of Shuttle 10, tell them, if they succeed, they will surely enter the Hall of Heroes

Distance is 820 million kilometers. According to calculations, we should launch the attack in 5 minutes

Right!

Seth nodded, Just follow the plan!

Five minutes later.

Out of the sixty wars.h.i.+ps of the vanguard, twenty started their attack on the Ming Fire Line.

One day later, these twenty wars.h.i.+ps ceased fire, supply s.h.i.+ps approached to refill their fuel, and another twenty wars.h.i.+ps took over the attack.

Half a day later, a shuttle s.h.i.+p left the formation and advanced ahead of the fleet at a speed much faster than normal.

The First Defense Line, Fifth Base.

Li Zongheng, with one hand plugged into the control room interface, was constantly calculating various data. When he noticed that an enemy shuttle s.h.i.+p had left the formation, he frowned slightly and quickly started to simulate the situation.

A thousand times simulated, theres one scenario that could create a

20-second defensive vacuum

20 seconds For regular wars.h.i.+ps its not enough, but for a shuttle s.h.i.+p, there is indeed a chance they could breach

This must be the enemys battle plan

As this was of utmost importance, Li Zongheng did not dare to decide on his own, he sent all the simulation data back.

Eight minutes later, the lunar base received the intelligence.

Uncle Da hurriedly reported the situation.

So, their plan is to create an opportunity for the shuttle to infiltrate first, then directly blow up Earth?!

Thats right!

Zhao Yu slightly nodded and continued, Simulate using a s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p equipped with a Hall thruster, to see if we can intercept the shuttle mid-route

Okay

Uncle Da quickly began his calculations.

Moments later, he shook his head, Its very difficult, we would need at least 120,000 escort s.h.i.+ps in position in advance to have any chance of success

Is there any way to destroy this shuttle without revealing that we are equipped with a particle black hole thruster?

Commander, are you suggesting

Zhao Yu nodded, 1 want to take advantage of the fact that the enemy doesnt know we have a particle black hole thruster yet, to achieve more results. Just a shuttle s.h.i.+p is not worth it

If thats the case

Uncle Da started to calculate again, simulating without exposing the particle black hole thruster.

Half an hour later, Uncle Da exclaimed with surprise, 1 found a way!

Zhao Yu immediately perked up, eager to hear the details.

Our biggest concern about exposure is the enemys gravity wave detector, which can detect across any distance in the solar system

But the gravity wave detector has one drawback: it can only detect large ma.s.s bodies when their gravity overshadows that of smaller bodies

Between Blue Star and Mars, there is a not-so-small comet

We can force the enemys shuttle to the vicinity of this comet and then collide our shuttle with it

Zhao Yu interrupted, Would the enemy still approach if they knew our wars.h.i.+p was on the comet?

We have numerous s.h.i.+ps traveling to the Fifth Base every day, we could slightly adjust their routes

Just drop off the shuttle during the 1-second window of gravitational wave contact fusion as the transport s.h.i.+p pa.s.ses by the comet

In this way, we wont expose our shuttles particle black hole thruster, and they can also find a reason for the destruction of their shuttle afterward

As Uncle Da was talking, he opened the star chart and started to simulate blocking and intercepting the enemys shuttle.

Tens of thousands of escort s.h.i.+ps, acting as frontline support, conveniently reacted one by one just when the enemys shuttle arrived.

So everything looked like a coincidence, but it could force the shuttle near the comet.

After carefully reviewing the simulation, Zhao Yu found no loopholes; it seemed like the enemys shuttle arrived near the comet either unintentionally or by choice.

Good, lets proceed as you suggested, start the deployment now!

As he spoke, he paused briefly, Also, prepare a backup plan, just in case we fail to intercept the shuttle near the comet. We must ensure that the shuttle never reaches here

The moon was too close to Earth. With the speed of the shuttle, it could traverse the distance in 57 seconds.

If the enemy decided not to attack Earth but targeted the moon first, it would spell disaster.

Energy point 177 has run out of energy, 100 escort s.h.i.+ps are replacing it Energy point 192 has run out of energy, 100 escort s.h.i.+ps are replacing it On the vanguard fleet, Seth was glued to the screen, not daring to relax for a moment.

A 20-second counter-attack vacuum period seemed simple, but it required meticulous planning. Every step had to be perfect to ensure the safe pa.s.sage of Shuttle 10.

The first batch of fleets stop for rotation, prepare to increase attack power Seths command seemed vague, but in reality, the detailed tasks had been a.s.signed ahead of time. Every battles.h.i.+p knew exactly what they needed to do and when.

Everyone was on edge, operating their tasks meticulously.

Shuttle 10 is 10 million kilometers from the Pluto line

8 million kilometers

6 million kilometers

On the screen, Shuttle 10 dodged relentlessly under countless laser attacks, like a salmon swimming upstream.

Its evasive maneuvers were pre-planned, taking advantage of the seconds gap when energy points ran out and escort s.h.i.+ps were replacing them to find safe s.p.a.ces.

At Base Five of the first line of defense, Li Zongheng was planning to adjust the sequence of the escort s.h.i.+ps replacement when he suddenly received a secret order from the Moon Base.

After carefully reviewing it, he abandoned his adjustment plan and continued the attack as before.

At the same time, he put his other hand into the control panel. Moments later, he calculated a position to force the enemys shuttle to retreat.

We cant puncture their shuttle here. If they detonate a particle black hole collapse bomb, the entire defensive line will be compromised

We need to make it leave narrowly, to avoid arousing suspicion

According to the original data, their Base Five indeed had no way to hit the enemys shuttle.

However, not long ago, the Moon Base sent him a batch of new escort s.h.i.+ps and shuttles equipped with particle black hole propellers, which could easily intercept the shuttle.

The commander doesnt want to reveal our s.h.i.+ps have particle black hole propellers so soon. It seems he wants to use this opportunity to eliminate as many enemy battles.h.i.+ps as possible

Thinking along these lines, Li Zongheng started to contemplate ways to lure the enemy further in, ideally trapping all 60 vanguard battles.h.i.+ps.

After pondering for a moment without finding a feasible plan, he decided not to overthink it and focused on the task at hand.

On the screen, the enemys Shuttle 10 had broken through to a position 1 million kilometers outside the defense line.

At the same time, all kinds of attacks from the enemys battles.h.i.+ps were fully activated, drastically increasing the energy consumption of the energy point lasers.

Li Zongheng nodded slightly. He understood that the enemys plan was officially underway. Now, it was a matter of whose plan would succeed..
