Chapter 149: Launching a General Attack!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Are there any more enemy ships leaving the defense line?”

“No, they haven’t made a move in a day…”

“That’s good!”

Seth breathed a sigh of relief, then said, “Request the other fleets report on their fuel resupply progress?!”

In a short while, he received a reply that the fuel was almost fully replenished.

“Good, all fleets depart, head to our previous station…”

This station was specifically requested by Moro. Now that there was no enemy fleet to disturb them, they could return.

“How far are the support troops?!”

“Almost there, only about 10 billion kilometers left. They should arrive in about four days…”

“Alright, after we reach the station, continue with our previous plan and start harassing the Inferno Point…”

“Commander, the gap in the Inferno Point’s defense line has been repaired…”

“No our concern, just continue attacking that side!”

On the Lunar Base, Zhao Yu sat in the command center, listening to Uncle Da’s daily report.

“The second defense line is a laser defense system with a radius of 500,000 kilometers, centered on Earth and the Moon. It requires far fewer base points than the first line. The construction has already begun and it is expected to be completed in about 7 days…”

“As you said, this second defense line is our life safety line. In addition, it will be supported by 30,000 escort ships and 10,000 shuttle ships. They will temporarily stay on the moon and can be sent to reinforce as needed…”

“The first batch of soldiers from Earth have set off for training. A total of 100,000 people. They will be in the spacecraft simulator training camp on the moon for about a month…”

“The renegade fleets did not merge and chose different directions…”

Uncle Da seemed a bit emotional when he got to this point. He never thought that the robots would rebel. In his heart, Zhao Yu, their creator, was their father.

Seeing that Zhao Yu had no reaction, he continued, “The mining teams from Mercury and Venus have returned. They brought back resources equivalent to 11.2 billion Blue Moon Dollars…”

“Since Earth was integrated by Da Xia, its overall resource output has doubled. It can collect over 1 billion Blue Moon Dollar equivalent resources daily…”

“Our current resource reserve has exceeded 20 billion…”

After listening to the report, Zhao Yu felt much more relaxed. Everything was improving. As soon as the training camp trained a batch of soldiers who could pilot spacecraft, they could carry out harassment operations again.

“Di di ~”

The watch lit up. Looking down, Zhao Yu saw that it was a message from Colonel Chu, saying he had something to report.

“There are two points that are very suspicious about the enemy…”

“First, they have begun attacking the Minghuo point again…”

“We’ve already repaired the gap here. According to calculations, unless there’s a massive attack that we can’t stop, with their current attack frequency, there’s almost no possibility of breaking through. Yet they are still attacking…”

” Second, the enemy fleet has returned to their previous base…”

Colonel Chu opened the star map and pointed to a small asteroid: “This asteroid is directly facing the Minghuo point, and it’s the closest. But they didn’t station here, instead choosing a place that’s relatively further away…” “There are more than 500,000 asteroids suitable for stationing in the asteroid belt between Jupiter and Mars, which is a lot more than their stationing point. Why did they choose this place twice?!”

“Combining these two points, I have a guess…”

“your suppose?” Zhao Yu asked.”

“The enemy seems to be making futile attacks on the Minghuo point, as if they want us to mistakenly think that this is the main attack point…”

“In fact, their main attack point may be somewhere else…”

“Considering that they chose the same stationing point twice, I did a positional analysis…”

“There are seven locations in total that are suitable. They’re all places that are similar in distance from the stationing point to the Minghuo point…”

“If the defense line is suddenly opened at these seven places, our reinforcement warships stationed there would be easily destroyed…”

Zhao Yu nodded slightly, feeling that there was some truth in what he said, and then asked, “So what should we do according to you?!”

Colonel Chu, deep down, was almost 90% certain that the enemy had chosen one of these seven locations as the real attack point.

After thinking for a moment, he said, “On the surface, there shouldn’t be any big moves. In secret, send reinforcements to these seven locations…”

He opened the star map again and explained, “The distance from the enemy’s stationing point to these seven locations is approximately the same, about 1 million kilometers. Our speeds are similar, so the reinforcement warships can be scattered near 1 million kilometers from these seven locations…”

“If there’s any change, it’s not too late for them to provide support then…”

Colonel Chu paused and counter-questioned, “The outer defense line is controlled by robots now, which can be delayed and lagging in reacting…” “Once the enemy launches electromagnetic wave interference, blocking our communication with the front line, these places might become loopholes that can be exploited by the enemy…”

“We still don’t know when the enemy will attack, so I suggest you can preset programs for the front-line robots in advance. If there’s any accident, they can support these seven locations at the first time…”

Colonel Chu hesitated for a moment, then added, “Moreover, the enemy can make robots rebel, which is always a risk. If they want to launch a total attack, they will definitely use this method…”

“Is it really not going to be a problem for our first defense line to be controlled by robots?!”

This was also the reason why he had previously urgently hoped that Zhao Yu would establish a second defense line.

“There will be no problem!”

Zhao Yu confidently said, “I have sent people over to ensure that the programs of most robots won’t have any problems…”

Seeing Zhao Yu not giving details, Colonel Chu didn’t ask more.

The two discussed some more details, then Zhao Yu left.

Returning to the lunar base, Zhao Yu started asking Uncle Da to fill the gaps and make preparations for the front line and base to be disconnected and still be able to counter-attack independently.

Time passed day by day, and there was a rare period of calm between the two sides.

Four days later, the enemy’s support forces arrived, beginning the final preparations before the total attack.

Ten days later.

Pluto Mothership.

Moro was spiritedly looking at various data.

“The Jupiter shuttle is still in position, ready to blow up Jupiter at any time…”

“The fourth-generation star-killer cannon in the asteroid belt has been built and can tear a hole in the enemy’s defense line at any time…”

“Large electromagnetic interference equipment has been built and can paralyze the communication from A/Iars to Earth at any time…”

“All kinds of warships have been refitted, and the decoy bombs have been successfully loaded…”

“The robot source codes ‘Destruction,’ ‘Creation,’ and ‘Rebirth’ have been transmitted, ready to be released at any time…”

All plans were being completed, everything was moving in the best direction.

Moro checked again carefully.. After making sure there were no errors, he nodded and said, “Send my order, let the vanguard fleet launch the total attack!”
