Under constant harassment from human warships, the alien spaceship activated all its reconnaissance equipment to ensure its safety and avoid a disastrous accident.
For asteroids that come into view, those that are small will be destroyed directly. For those that cannot be destroyed, fighter jets will be dispatched to scout and ensure that no human warships are lying in ambush.
This tactic has indeed been very effective for humanity. Human spaceplanes are often detected as soon as they enter the detection range of alien spacecraft.
As a result of their discovery, apart from a few spaceplanes that managed to escape by taking advantage of the complex environment, the rest were destroyed by alien spacecraft.
In nearly six months, although the human side has not lost any warships, more than 60% of the spaceplanes they carried have been lost.
After six months of adaptation, the alien spaceship has become increasingly adept at dealing with human harassment.
All detection devices were activated. Once traces of human aircraft were detected, the ship's weapons were used to fire at them from a distance. If they could destroy them, that would be best. If not, they would not pursue them further but instead sail away from the Kuiper Belt as quickly as possible.
In this way, humanity's harassment tactics have almost completely failed.
The alien spaceship is clearly accelerating; at this rate, they will be able to cross the Kuiper Belt in less than three months.
First Fleet flagship command center.
General Peng frowned as he looked at the battle report in his hand.
In the past month, the alien spaceships have been moving at a significantly faster speed. If we continue to use the current harassment tactics, it will be impossible to achieve our goal of holding the enemy in the Kuiper Belt for a year!
The tactics must be adjusted. Relying solely on spaceplanes for harassment is no longer sufficient to achieve the objective. A small-scale positional war is necessary!
Having made up his mind, General Peng's gaze was firm as he ordered, "Activate Operation Two!"
The so-called Operation Two plan involves using thrusters to propel an asteroid about half the size of the moon in the direction the alien spacecraft is heading.
Then, surround the asteroid and arrange as many meteorites as possible around it to create a complex and chaotic natural habitat.
This plan was already in effect when the operational plan was formulated.
Three such positions were set up along the path of the alien spacecraft.
Of course, the position is fixed, and there's nothing that can be done if the alien spaceship takes a detour, but in doing so, the time it takes to pass through the Kuiper Belt will definitely be greatly extended, and the purpose of delaying time will be achieved!
With the launch of Operation Two, all human warships retreated and began setting up their positions at the designated locations.
A week later, the alien spaceship arrived at the site.
Upon detecting the presence of human warships ahead, the alien leader did not become angry; instead, he burst into laughter.
A mocking smile appeared on his ugly face, revealing sharp teeth, as if he were laughing at humanity's overestimation of its own abilities.
"These little mice can't hide anymore. They think they can use the terrain ahead to fight us. What a pipe dream."
"Prepare the light of divine punishment! This time, let these humans see what despair truly means!"
The high-ranking members of the space pirates also wore cruel smiles.
Although these human spaceplanes cannot harm them, the occasional harassment they receive is still quite annoying.
With a command from the alien leader, a huge hole split open in the top of the alien spaceship, like a gaping maw ready to devour everything.
Enormous energy gathered at the cave entrance, emitting a dazzling light, like a star about to explode.
"Leader, the Light of Heavenly Punishment is ready and can be launched at any time."
In the control room of the alien spaceship, the alien leader sat majestically on his throne. Upon hearing that the Light of Heavenly Punishment was ready, he ordered the launch without hesitation.
The next moment, a beam of red light shot out from the cave entrance, like a giant red dragon roaring forward. Its body radiated intense heat, as dazzling as the sun.
Wherever the red beam passed, everything was destroyed, and the beam's range gradually expanded.
By the time it reached the human-established position, the beam of light had expanded to a width of tens of millions of kilometers.
What's even more disheartening is that the power of the beam of light hasn't diminished!
When the light of divine punishment entered the position, everything in its path was destroyed. Whether it was meteorites, human spaceplanes, or space mines, they all turned into nothingness.
Amidst the despairing gazes of everyone in the First Fleet, the light of divine punishment swept across the battlefield, melting away the numerous meteorites and asteroids, leaving a large empty space.
The remaining fleet of the First Fleet, which was hiding there, was also completely wiped out, with only a few spaceplanes on the periphery that were not affected by the attack surviving.
After a moment of great shock, the pilots of these spaceplanes immediately transmitted the information about what they had just witnessed back to Blue Star headquarters.
Meanwhile, at the highest command center on Earth.
Upon receiving news of the complete annihilation of the First Fleet led by General Peng, and especially the power of the Heavenly Punishment Light, they were plunged into immense panic and shock!
Only six months had passed between the alien spaceship entering the Kuiper Belt and the complete annihilation of the First Fleet, four months short of the originally planned one year!
The most pressing issue now is that the United Government has lost the Kuiper Belt fleet and no longer has enough fleet to slow down the alien ships' advance, including to monitor their movements.
If the alien spacecraft does not cause any disturbance, it will fly out of the Kuiper Belt and enter the inner solar system within a month at most!
Now we can only hope that the key solar system defense plan can hold out a little longer.
The coalition government commanders were at a loss and spent a month in agony.
However, the alien spacecraft did not appear in the solar system as expected.
In the Kuiper Belt, beyond human detection, the alien spaceship encountered another fleet's ambush.
In fact, when news of the complete annihilation of the First Fleet spread, Wang Yuxi immediately ordered the private fleet she had assembled to intercept the alien spaceship.
She didn't immediately send a fleet to intercept them for two reasons. First, she planned to use this fleet as a prelude, to strike at a crucial moment.
Secondly, we can see that General Peng's harassment tactics in the first half of the year were very successful. If we continue with this approach, we can hold off the alien spaceship for more than a year.
However, the destruction came so suddenly. Under the large-scale attack of the alien spaceships, the human-built positions did not even last an hour.
Fortunately, she had already had her fleet lie in ambush in the Kuiper Belt, and now it took her less than a week to reach the direction the alien spaceship was heading.
Ye Chen's private fleet is even stronger than the First Fleet, with more than fifty warships and tens of thousands of spaceplanes.
With the private fleet's relentless interception, the alien spaceship's advance was indeed greatly slowed down.
It was six months later when they defeated the blocking fleet and flew out of the Kuiper Belt!
