Chapter 120: Beat Him at His Own Game

“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 ship first to head straight for Blue Star and destroy the enemy’s headquarters.

“Input the related data of their plan into the simulator, let’s 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 warships of the vanguard, twenty started their attack on the Ming Fire Line.

One day later, these twenty warships ceased fire, supply ships approached to refill their fuel, and another twenty warships took over the attack.

Half a day later, a shuttle ship 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 ship had left the formation, he frowned slightly and quickly started to simulate the situation.

“A thousand times simulated, there’s one scenario that could create a

20-second defensive vacuum…”

“20 seconds… For regular warships it’s not enough, but for a shuttle ship, there is indeed a chance they could breach…”

“This must be the enemy’s 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?!”

“That’s right!”

Zhao Yu slightly nodded and continued, “Simulate using a spaceship 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, “It’s very difficult, we would need at least 120,000 escort ships 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 doesn’t know we have a particle black hole thruster yet, to achieve more results. Just a shuttle ship is not worth it…”

“If that’s 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 enemy’s 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 mass 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 enemy’s 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 warship was on the comet?”

“We have numerous ships 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 ship passes by the comet…”

“In this way, we won’t expose our shuttle’s 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 enemy’s shuttle.

Tens of thousands of escort ships, acting as frontline support, conveniently reacted one by one just when the enemy’s 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 enemy’s shuttle arrived near the comet either unintentionally or by choice.

“Good, let’s 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 ships are replacing it…” “Energy point 192 has run out of energy, 100 escort ships 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 passage of Shuttle 10.

“The first batch of fleets stop for rotation, prepare to increase attack power…” Seth’s command seemed vague, but in reality, the detailed tasks had been assigned ahead of time. Every battleship 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 second’s gap when energy points ran out and escort ships were replacing them to find safe spaces.

At Base Five of the first line of defense, Li Zongheng was planning to adjust the sequence of the escort ships’ 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 enemy’s shuttle to retreat.

“We can’t 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 enemy’s shuttle.

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

“The commander doesn’t want to reveal our ships have particle black hole propellers so soon. It seems he wants to use this opportunity to eliminate as many enemy battleships as possible…”

Thinking along these lines, Li Zongheng started to contemplate ways to lure the enemy further in, ideally trapping all 60 vanguard battleships.

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 enemy’s 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 enemy’s battleships were fully activated, drastically increasing the energy consumption of the energy point lasers.

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