After annihilating all 200 starships in 12 interstellar formations on Earth, the Tiberians made great progress and were invincible.

After clearing away the patrol ships and remaining space forces that harassed the Earth people along the way, they headed for the Nass Military Port, an important military port located in the orbit of Venus in the solar system.

Nass Military Port is one of the three major military ports for people on earth in the solar system. The other two military ports are the Mercury Military Port located in the orbit of Mercury and the Mars Military Port located in the orbit of Mars.

Nass Military Port, located in the orbit of Venus, is the largest of the three military ports. It is also the military port with the largest number of starships and space vehicles stationed. Its military strength and defense facilities rank first among the three military ports.

Facing the menacing Tiberians' approximately 200,000 small interstellar spacecraft, approximately 30,000 space vehicles and more than 3,500 small spacecraft stationed at Nass Military Port put up a heroic resistance.

In the unfavorable situation of lack of large interstellar spacecraft, these space vehicles and small interstellar spacecraft, with the cooperation of light prism towers and shore-based anti-missile systems, still caused a lot of trouble to the invading Tiberians.

After more than 20 minutes of fierce fighting, the Tiberians finally occupied the Nass military port at the cost of losing about 2,000 interstellar ships.

The fall of the Nass military port also resulted in the loss of about 30,000 space vehicles and more than 3,500 small spacecraft that fought bravely in this battle. They turned into wisps of smoke and slept forever in the orbit of Venus.

After capturing the Nass military port in the orbit of Venus, the Tiberians captured the Mercury military port and the Mars military port in a devastating manner.

At this point, all three military ports protecting the safety of the earth have fallen, and the door to the earth is wide open.

The earth has become an undefended planet.

20 minutes later, the Tiber star warship cluster cruised near the orbit of Venus. After they merged with the Tiber star scout force located near the orbit of Mercury, they were separated from the approximately 200,000 small starships hovering over the Nass military port. Fly back to the mothership.

The 24 interstellar ships that had previously withdrawn from attacking the Tiberian battleship cluster did not stay at Nass Military Port for too long according to the orders of Li Jianfeng and Snate.

They set off urgently 5 minutes before the enemy ship group attacked and maneuvered to the vicinity of Jupiter's orbit at the highest speed.

Both Li Jianfeng and Snate knew that the Nass military port could not be defended. Even if all 24 interstellar ships were put into battle, they would only fall like moths to a flame, and would not change the fate of failure at all.

Rather than making unnecessary sacrifices, it is better to avoid the enemy's edge for the time being, leaving the last bit of military power for the people on earth, and retaining the remaining fire and hope for future rise.

But the Tiberians don't want to leave the Earth people with a chance to make a comeback in the future. They want to extinguish this last fire and hope.

Disguised as a galaxy and 100 million kilometers away, the Tiberian interstellar colonial fleet detected the movements of 24 interstellar ships.

Soon, they dispatched 36 interstellar battleships, rushing like lightning towards the 24 interstellar spacecraft parked near the orbit of Jupiter.

The 24 interstellar spacecraft that received the early warning set off immediately, but in the vast universe, they didn't know where they were going?

Just flying aimlessly towards the edge of the solar system...

Flying at the front of the fleet is a "Gravity" class starship "Xianli", its captain is Zhang Yueqiang, and behind it is a "Rongyu" class starship "Xingchen", its captain is Philly Hills.

Located in the middle of the fleet is the flagship "Force" of the entire fleet. It is a "Gravity" class starship and its captain is Fang Junhuang.

In the hall of the Supreme Military Executive Committee of the Crisis Planning Agency, everyone was still deeply immersed in the sadness caused by the fall of the three military ports. Their faces were solemn, and their cold eyes were filled with sadness.

Only Li Jianfeng and Snet paid close attention to the nowhere place in deep space.

The two of them stared at the monitor screen silently, looking at the fire-like light band, wandering lonely in the vast universe.

"Are we just going to let them flee like this without any purpose?" Snate said blankly.

Li Jianfeng raised his head, took a long breath, and said with a gloomy expression: "Other than that, what else can be done? If they don't escape, the only thing waiting for them is to be eliminated."

"The Tiber Stars' pursuit fleet is still 3.2 million kilometers away from them and will catch up soon."

Li Jianfeng pondered for a while and looked at Snate. His eyes seemed to be saying something to him. After a moment, Snate understood what he meant and nodded.

Li Jianfeng picked up the communication device: "Force, I am Li Jianfeng. I now authorize you to form a formation and exercise the right of independent defense as much as possible without any restrictions."

"The Force understands." Fang Junhuang's voice came from the other end of the communication device.

Li Jianfeng and Snett both breathed a long sigh of relief. They understood that the delegation of authority meant that the 24 interstellar ships could independently decide their future.

All their military operations and plans do not need to be reported to the Supreme Military Executive Committee of the Crisis Planning Agency.

Whether they fight to the death or continue to flee aimlessly, everything is decided by themselves.

This was a helpless move by Li Jianfeng and Snet, because they understood that the result of fighting to the end would be that 24 interstellar spacecraft would be buried in space forever.

Keep running, no matter where you go, there may be a glimmer of hope.

But where to escape can only be decided by themselves. As the saying goes, military orders abroad will be ignored. Too much intervention will disrupt the fleet's plan.

In fact, the most important reason for the decentralization of military authority comes from the fact that the wartime communications between the fleet and the Supreme Military Executive Committee of the Crisis Planning Agency have long been intercepted by the Tiberians.

Otherwise, the Tabor people would not know the exact interstellar locations of the 24 interstellar ships at the first time.

The fact that they were able to gather a fleet to pursue them in a short period of time showed that they had already cracked the wartime communication system of the people on earth.

Although the wartime communication system was quantum encrypted, the powerful computing power of the Tiberians, whose civilization was several orders of magnitude higher than that of Earthlings, made quantum encryption useless.

After the delegation of military decision-making power, Fang Junhuang, the captain of the fleet flagship "Force", quickly formulated a combat plan to deal with the Tiberians' pursuit of the fleet.

According to the combat plan, Fang Junhuang divided the entire fleet into two formations. The two formations supported and covered each other. As long as any one formation successfully broke through, the combat plan was declared successful.

However, the prerequisite for breaking through must be blocking. A part of the force must be allocated to ambush the enemy ship on its only way to catch it by surprise and block the enemy's pursuit route. Only in this way can the main fleet have sufficient time to get rid of the enemy.

However, Fang Juanhuang understood that no matter whether the blocking fleet could safely cover the main fleet and successfully shake off the enemy, for the blocking fleet, this would be a battle with no return, and they would be greeted only by tragic explosions and endless darkness. .

But for the last military power of mankind, someone must stand up bravely and face sacrifice calmly!

Soon, Fang Juanhuang announced the list of blocking ships. They were the "Force", the "Star", the "Funli" and the "Starlight".

The blocking fleet will be led by Fang Junhuang, who will assume the important task of covering the main fleet. The fleet's flagship will be succeeded by the "Xianli", which will lead two formations to escape to the edge of the solar system---the Kuiper Belt.

However, Fang Juanhuang's blocking list was strongly opposed by Han Qi, the captain of the "Quality". He believed that Fang Juanhuang had good military qualities and superb command skills and could not be sacrificed in vain.

The entire fleet still needs him.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Finally, Han Qi proposed that their "Massive Force" replace the "Force" to take on the blocking mission. The "Force" would continue to serve as the flagship and lead the fleet to shake off the pursuit of the Tiberians.

Han Qi's proposal received responses from many captains. In desperation, Fang Juanhuang had no choice but to agree.

Soon, the three starships "Star", "Separation" and "Starlight" led by the "Massive Force" broke away from the main fleet. They changed their course and divided into two columns silently among the Tiberians. On the only way to pursue the fleet.

The "Force" led the two formations towards the Kuiper Belt at the highest speed...

Before setting off, the main fleet turned on all the navigation lights without exception. Countless navigation lights were flashing and changing like brilliant stars. In this way, they paid their final tribute to the four blocking spacecraft. .

Three minutes later, the Tiberian pursuit fleet arrived at the blocking airspace as promised. At this moment, they did not find the two blocking columns located 30,000 kilometers away and in a silent state.

Before the Taibo aliens could pass through the blocking airspace, the two columns led by Han Qi took the lead in launching an attack on them. For a time, more than 500 dark matter space missiles sprayed angry fire, piercing the silent space like a hurricane. Rushing towards the target...

The Tiberians, who had been sailing at high speed, did not open the protective barrier. They were caught off guard. The seven interstellar warships that had no time to open the protective device fell into the dark universe in bursts of explosions that shook the world.

The Tiberians who were attacked quickly reacted. They fired a hail of electromagnetic pulse bombs at the two columns. After two waves of attacks, the dark matter protective barrier of the "Starlight" was penetrated, and it soared into the sky. Disintegrated in the fire.

The flames of the explosion illuminated the entire battlefield red, and the "Force" as far away as 150,000 kilometers away could see its fireworks-like explosion and the flames that broke through the sky.

After five waves of attacks by the Tiberians, the protective barriers of the three spacecrafts "Massive Force", "Star" and "Part Force" all suffered varying degrees of damage.

The protective capabilities of the "Massive Force" and "Funli" both dropped to 60%, and the "Star" dropped to 30%.

The Tiber aliens' blocking fleet also suffered heavy losses. In addition to the seven ships shot down before, two more ships were shot down and five ships were damaged.

But attacking the Tiberians is not the main task of blocking the fleet. Their main purpose is to prevent the Tiberians from pursuing the main fleet and buy as much time as possible for the main fleet to escape.

"Separation force and Xingchen, fly towards the earth at maximum speed!" Han Qi ordered the captains of the two ships.

After glancing at the main fleet flying towards the Kuiper Belt at high speed on the monitor screen, he continued: "Although we may be shot down before we reach our beautiful earth, every second we persist, the main fleet will gain one more Seconds of time to escape, of course, we will also be closer to the earth."

At this moment, his eyes were full of tears, and the captains of the two ships were also full of tears and couldn't help themselves.

All three of them knew that the next flight would be accompanied by endless explosions, and what awaited them would be fire and falling.

30 seconds later, the "Star" was shot down first, and the hulls of the "Massive Force" and "Split Force" were already covered in flames and explosions...

Although the two ships held on for five more seconds, and even shot down a Tiberian warship at the last moment, they were ultimately outnumbered and fell asleep forever in the vast interstellar space.

At this moment, the two formations led by Fang Juanhuang distanced themselves from the Tiberians' pursuit fleet. They entered the Kuiper Belt, the outer reaches of the solar system where ice and small meteorites were flying all over the sky.

The entire fleet still flew silently.

The Tiberians lost their coordinates.
