Li Qingsong's intention is actually very simple.
The environment on Venus is too harsh, which prevents me from carrying out large-scale infrastructure construction on the surface of Venus or building a supercomputing base, so you took advantage of the loophole and took away Venus.
Your technology is more advanced, and you have the ability to carry out large-scale infrastructure construction on the surface of Venus, build supercomputing bases, and deploy a large number of unmanned combat forces.
There was no way I could get Venus back through conventional means alone.
In that case... I will find a way to make the surface environment of Venus even worse, so worse that even you won't be able to cope with it and won't be able to carry out large-scale infrastructure construction. This way, I can bring you to the same level as me!
An impact with an asteroid of about 24 trillion tons would accomplish this goal.
The asteroid that hit the earth and caused the extinction of the dinosaurs was only 10 kilometers in size and had a total mass of about trillion tons, which is only about 6% of this asteroid!
But even that asteroid caused drastic changes in the Earth's environment, leading to large-scale tsunamis, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Volcanic ash drifted into the atmosphere, causing global freezing.
At this moment, if this asteroid could hit Venus, the energy released would be at least 20 times that of that asteroid.
Moreover, Venus has extremely active geological activities, with frequent earthquakes and volcanoes on its surface.
It can be predicted that once this asteroid hits Venus, it will immediately trigger a new round of large-scale geological activity on Venus. There will be countless strong earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, making the already harsh surface environment of Venus even worse, so harsh that even the Bluetooks will be unable to carry out infrastructure construction!
In this way, the advantage gained by the Bluetuks in seizing Venus will be wiped out.
Moreover, the acceleration phase of this asteroid was completed in the asteroid belt, which is heavily guarded and the Bluetuk people are unable to interfere at this stage.
Once the acceleration phase is completed, the asteroid will begin to collide with Venus at a speed of more than 20 kilometers per second. Even if it enters the control range of the Bluetooks, how can they stop such a ferocious beast with huge kinetic energy?
Electromagnetic cannon projectile bombardment? Laser beam burning?
This works well against battleships, but not against solid asteroids.
Atomic bomb, or even hydrogen bomb?
It has some use, but again not much.
Nuclear weapons can only reduce the mass of a part of an asteroid. Even if a large number of nuclear explosions cause the mass of the asteroid to be reduced by half, what does that matter?
Besides, I won’t allow them to attack this asteroid at will.
In the same way, build enough thrusters on the asteroid to push it away?
Not to mention that Li Qingsong will definitely interfere and will not let the Bluetuk people do this. Even if you let the Bluetuk people do this, your current control range is only around Venus. When the asteroid reaches the vicinity of Venus, the time is too short and it will be too late.
The only chance for the Bluetuk people to survive is to send a large fleet to try to occupy the asteroid and change its orbit while it is still far away from Venus, so as to avoid it from crashing into Venus.
Come on! It's just a field battle. We've fought this before!
Things developed just as Li Qingsong had expected. When it was discovered that the asteroid was being pushed towards Venus by Li Qingsong, a large number of warships immediately left Venus and tried to approach.
Li Qingsong's fleet also closely protected the asteroid.
Both sides gave their all.
For a time, the place where the asteroid was located became the focus of war in the entire solar system.
Li Qingsong has resources from seven large planets, and the Bluetuk people have resources from Venus;
Li Qingsong has 400 million common clones, no internal friction, no communication costs, and extremely high efficiency. The Blue Turks have a population of nearly 100 billion. Although the efficiency is lower, the population base is large enough.
One after another, heavy cargo ships arrived around the asteroid, delivering huge amounts of supplies to both the enemy and us. Surrounding the supply lines, sneak attacks, counter-sneak attacks, ambushes, counter-ambushes, and so on, extremely brutal and fierce battles also broke out.
In the main battlefield, warship after warship was destroyed and both sides suffered heavy casualties, with Li Qingsong suffering the heaviest casualties.
But Li Qingsong didn't care at all.
If we destroy a thousand battleships, we will replenish them with a thousand battleships. If we destroy a million clones, we will replenish them with a million clones. We must go all out and ensure that the propulsion of the asteroid is not affected!
Even under such circumstances, Li Qingsong sacrificed more than 300 million clones and tens of thousands of warships were destroyed. He finally fought his way out of the opponent's desperate interception and escorted the asteroid to a place only 10 million kilometers away from Venus.
At this moment, its speed was successfully accelerated to 20 kilometers per second.
At this speed, it will hit Venus in about six days.
This has entered the control range of the Bluetook people, and Li Qingsong had to withdraw his combat power.
But it doesn’t matter. It’s not possible to stop such a huge object or change its orbit in just a few days.
Even numerous high-yield nuclear bombs can’t do it!
It's like an out-of-control heavy-loaded truck traveling at high speed on Earth's highway. Even if you could shoot it with thousands of bullets and smash it to pieces, you couldn't make it stop immediately.
Li Qingsong seemed to have seen the surface of Venus, where the Bluetuk people were in panic as if the end of the world was coming.
But the next moment...
"Um?"
Li Qingsong narrowed his eyes slightly.
He saw a scene that was slightly unexpected.
He saw that a giant spaceship that had been orbiting Venus at a speed of about 10 kilometers per second suddenly began to accelerate.
The spaceship was extremely large, with a length of two kilometers. Li Qingsong originally thought it was just a space base, but he didn't expect it to be a spaceship that could move freely.
If such a giant spacecraft were filled with ballast, its total mass would probably be as high as 10 billion tons.
At this moment, the giant spaceship accelerated and had the speed to break free from the gravity of Venus, and then crashed into the asteroid.
Li Qingsong's expression became increasingly serious.
This is how the Bluetuk people responded!
A giant spacecraft weighing tens of billions of tons and traveling at a speed of about 11 kilometers per second has a total kinetic energy of about 6*10^20 joules.
If converted into TNT explosion equivalent, it is about 150 billion tons of TNT!
What's more, the energy released by this kind of kinetic impact is extremely concentrated, and most of it can act on the asteroid, instead of spreading its explosive energy around like a hydrogen bomb explosion!
