Li Qingsong had already confirmed that these unknown opponents' warships possessed the ability to intercept tiny targets.
This was another capability entirely different from his own, and one that far surpassed his technological level.
When facing bullets, the only thing he could do was pile on armor and rely on it to take the hits head-on. But these hostile spacecraft could precisely intercept those projectiles using methods that might have been Electromagnetic Cannon Shells or laser beams.
But it didn't matter.
Even if your interception rate reached one hundred percent, if several hundred billion rounds just sat there for you to intercept, your interception systems would burn out from overload before they could stop even one percent of them!
Once quantity exceeded a certain limit, it caused a qualitative change. And clearly, these sufficiently numerous Gunpowder Gun bullets had produced exactly that effect.
Under the watchful eye of the Spy Satellite, Li Qingsong saw that, after a brief silence, the small spacecraft gathered around the mothership seemed to have finally made their decision.
The mothership's engines, which had never ignited and seemed not to have been fully repaired, finally blasted out bright Exhaust Plumes. Its enormous hull slowly accelerated, gradually breaking free from Adversary Star's orbit and fleeing into deep space under the escort of the smaller ships.
The bullet swarm's target was Adversary Star. As long as they left Adversary Star, they could avoid being caught in the bullet flood!
That was obvious, and Li Qingsong had expected it long ago.
He had known from the start that this wave of bullet swarm attacks would most likely be unable to damage the enemy's mobile forces.
But it still didn't matter!
Li Qingsong had never intended to take out their ships with this offensive.
His target was the industrial bases
