Heaven and Earth War

It's only a little over 10,000 kilometers, that's too close.

A landing spacecraft was still descending into orbit and had no time to dodge when it was hit by Positron Cannon that flashed by and instantly turned into space debris.

However, immediately afterward, the ground Positron Cannon turret was struck by a faint beam of light that fell from the sky. It suffered the same fate as the spaceship that it had hit, and the violent energy explosion shattered the turret into pieces on the spot.

Without a doubt, this was done by an Artificial Intelligence Lake-Class Warship in orbit, using Positron Cannon.

The Lake-Class Warship had planned this all along, even before the ground-based Base Cannon was about to fire. The moment the Positron Cannon, the Base Cannon would temporarily deactivate its Magnetic Shield. This instant was detected by the Lake-Class Warship in space, and it was then taken out by a "space-based" Positron Cannon.

Explosions continued to occur above the planet's orbit, but there was no sound. Only occasional bursts of bright light told the observers that another Landing Ship had just been destroyed.

An Electromagnetic Railgun launched from a ground base traversed a distance of over 10,000 kilometers, escaping Planetary Gravity, and arced through the sky into space. Then, a long tongue of fire shot out from its tail nozzle, and like a rocket, it made a turn in space before heading towards the nearby Lake-Class Warship.

If it hits, this Electromagnetic Railgun carrying a hydrogen bomb warhead would definitely destroy the Lake-Class Warship. However, its speed is ultimately no match for the speed of light of laser Energy Weapon and Positron Cannon.

When it was still 100 kilometers away from the Artificial Intelligence warship, it was irradiated by the warship's Close-In Laser Cannon for three seconds. Ultimately, the high temperature of the laser caused it to explode prematurely, turning into a unique firework in space.

This is a silent battle, a symphony of light and fire.

Tens of thousands of Landing Ships of all kinds were reduced at a visible rate, either burned through by Laser Energy Cannon or destroyed by Positron Cannon in mid-air during the landing.

Their remains and corpses, under the influence of the planet's Gravity, transformed into a rain of iron pellets. The planet's Gravity gave these fragments powerful propulsion, turning them into a devastating barrage of projectiles.

Because this planet has no atmosphere, the wreckage of these Landing Ships did not turn into beautiful meteors in the sky like meteorites entering Earth. Instead, they were accelerated faster and faster by Gravity and eventually crashed to the ground.

In an instant, clouds of dust splattered across the planet's surface, the impact of the spaceship wreckage like powerful bombs, sending plumes of smoke and dust billowing across the land.

The sound of the impact spread outwards from the earth, and the short, intense sound waves propagated through the earth, causing wave after wave of earthquakes in the surrounding area.

The simultaneous impact of numerous pieces of debris created a cacophony of sound waves, much like countless stones being thrown into a calm lake, generating interference waves.

Countless rocks were pulverized by these intersecting interference waves.

A rumbling sound spread across the land.

Some of the larger pieces of debris even caused a commotion no less than that caused by 'Miss Qiu' during the impact.

Under such intense impacts, even the rocks on the planet's surface that had been shattered into powder were thrown into the air by the powerful impacts. In an instant, areas where debris fell in concentrated quantities became shrouded in dust, with debris even being thrown thousands of meters into the air.

Therefore, when the subsequent debris fell to the ground, the dust actually acted as a protective dust curtain to some extent. When the debris that followed rushed down into the dust layer, it was like a meteorite entering the atmosphere. In the rapid and intense collision and friction, it turned into a ball of red-hot iron. Smaller pieces of debris were directly decomposed, while larger pieces passed through the dust layer and plunged into the ground, stirring up even larger dust particles.

Unfortunately, these naturally falling spaceship wreckages were unpredictable, and the vastness of a planet was beyond human imagination, so much so that these naturally falling wreckages mostly landed on Barren Land without any facilities. Otherwise, they alone might have been able to destroy the Base Cannon on the ground.

Another laser Energy Weapon descended from the sky, but this laser energy beam seemed to be inaccurate. Its first impact point did not hit the ground Base Cannon directly, but landed three kilometers away from a turret.

However, the laser energy beam that had gone astray came back to life the next moment.

It only stayed at the first point of impact for 2 seconds, just enough to burn the ground rocks into quicklime, before it began to move laterally.

It's like the beam of a searchlight, focused on the ground. And the area where it's focused is many times brighter than a searchlight; the ground illuminated by that spot is almost blinding.

Intense laser energy beams converged into a blazing spot of light, and as the spot moved, a crimson-white path appeared on the planet's surface.

The hot spot of light didn't move very fast.

The reason is that its source is a Lake-Class Warship located in Low Earth Orbit, which cannot move too fast to ensure the accuracy of the burning.

This is precisely why it allowed ample time to burn the areas it swept through, turning all the rocks into quicklime and the land into scorched earth wherever it swept.

The beam of light quickly swept across the ground for three kilometers before finally stopping on a turret.

The Magnetic Shield only works on charged particles. Laser Energy Weapon belong to the category of high-energy lasers, so this beam of light completely ignored the Magnetic Shield and turned the ground turret into a pool of molten iron a few seconds later.

Then, due to the continued burning of the high temperature, the energy supply facilities inside the turret were detonated, and finally, with a loud explosion, the turret turned to ashes.

Yes, this planet does not have an atmosphere, so the so-called "explosive sound" was actually a sound transmitted to the ground.

It is precisely because this planet has no atmosphere that laser Energy Weapon can still possess such unparalleled power even when in Low Earth Orbit.

Explosions erupted one after another in space, while on the planetary surface, the explosions and tremors continued unabated. In the short term, the fierce battle between the two sides consisted of countless beams of light, exploding with light, and raining down debris from spaceships. But after a while, thick clouds of dust rose up across the ground.

That was caused by orbital bombardment and bombardment from the wreckage of the landing craft.

In this process, countless secondary warships and various spaceships used for landing paid a heavy price. Tens of thousands of spaceships carrying various equipment were destroyed, and tens of thousands of secondary warships were turned into a rain of iron.

Of course, the ground turrets also suffered significant losses, as they couldn't move like warships or spaceships and were frequently hit by Laser Weapon from the orbiting Lake-Class Warship. As seen before, the orbiting warships often didn't hit the target with a single shot, but rather moved sideways while the laser's trajectory was off-target.

The Base Cannon cannot be moved, and they are often destroyed by the sweeping lasers.

Both sides have suffered losses, but so far, not a single secondary warship or landing craft has successfully landed.

Humanity's meticulously constructed defense system is still quite powerful.

It can be said that the initial landing operation by the Artificial Intelligence fleet failed. They paid the price of tens of thousands of secondary warships and tens of thousands of various landing craft, yet still failed to land successfully. Of the more than four thousand Lake-Class Warship in Low Earth Orbit, nearly a thousand were also destroyed.

Given this situation, the AI program of the Artificial Intelligence Consciousness finally got it. It mobilized the warship cluster that was originally located in far orbit to participate in the attack on the ground turrets.

It seems they intend to use more warships to conduct Orbital Bombardment of the ground.

Indeed, as long as these nasty ground -Base Cannon remain undestroyed, a successful landing will be extremely difficult. Furthermore, even if a successful landing is achieved, it will be very difficult to transport resources back into space without eliminating these turrets.

So this time, the AI program of the Artificial Intelligence Consciousness has also become smarter, perhaps because it has calculated a result that is unfavorable to its landing plan.

Therefore, in the ensuing battles, it abandoned the strategy of simultaneously launching various landing ships and secondary warships to land while using Lake-Class Warship for Orbital Bombardment.

Instead, they concentrated their computing power and used all the Lake-Class Warship in the fleet to carry out a cleanup operation on the ground turrets.

The actions of the AI program of the Artificial Intelligence Consciousness fleet were quickly detected by small detectors scattered throughout the battlefield, and this detection meant that its actions were soon known to the Allied Forces Command.

"Commander Yue, the Artificial Intelligence fleet on the Second Planet has made further moves!" The First Mate of the Lyra, who had been keeping a close eye on the situation on the Second Planet, immediately reported.

He felt that this time, Yue Yuan wouldn't ignore it like before.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Yue Yuan nodded and said, "Hmm, it seems that the AI program also calculated that it couldn't break through the planetary defense network using that method. It's understandable that it changed its strategy at this time. It's a pity, if only it had continued to use the original method, what a pity!"

Yue Yuan shook his head and sighed a few times. He knew that if the remaining warships of the Artificial Intelligence sub-fleet were allowed to join the battle and then safely fight the ground Base Cannon in planetary orbit, the ground turrets would be wiped out in no time.

Although there are still three million 300 Million Tons TNT Equivalent Hydrogen Bomb buried back then, they will not be detonated until the Artificial Intelligence fleet successfully clears all the ground Base Cannon and lands various types of spacecraft.

The aim is to slow down the resource development speed of Artificial Intelligence and destroy some of their resource mining machinery, landing spacecraft, etc.

Before that, Yue Yuan wouldn't mind creating some more trouble for it.

Well, the main reason is that he doesn't want the Artificial Intelligence- powered fleet to carry out Orbital Bombardment so easily.

Thinking this through, Yue Yuan pondered for a moment, exchanged opinions with a group of human military experts, and then said to the communications officer, "Notify Man Yuemei to have her Second Fleet find an opportunity to break away from the main Artificial Intelligence Consciousness fleet and head to the orbit of the Second Planet to harass the squadron there. Hmm, add one more thing: tell her to remember that the fleet must maintain high mobility and must not be caught up by that Artificial Intelligence squadron. Her Second Fleet's role is only to contain, not to engage in a real battle!"

The Fourth Fleet is gone, and the Fifth and Sixth Fleets have gone to the planetary base on the other side of the Red Dwarf for repairs. Although the Third Fleet is nominally a coalition fleet, it is essentially the fleet of the Nair Grand Governor and is the Nair fleet.

The fourth, fifth, and Sixth Fleet that were sent previously suffered heavy losses, so Yue Yuan naturally couldn't send the Third Fleet this time.

Hmm, still six thousand today *^_^*
