I was wondering what it was. I've never played the game, but now I recognize him from Bob the Angry Flower: Tea with Sinistar

The solution is to try another target first.
There are other power zones that you can conquer.

There are other tactics:
- A cannon on a power zone will resist a five-emitter attack. Surround it with digitalis from as many sides as possible - it will have to split its shots around all the surrounding digitalis, allowing you to proceed. You will likely have to tighten your surround from all sides, alternating between angles.
- When approaching a mortar, remember it will always shoot at the highest creeper in range. I.e. if you with to proceed to a specific point on the map, put your high-creeper end pint somewhat away from the place that you actually want to reach; the mortar will reduce creeper there, but enough creeper should flow to the side.
- Same goes for the Berta: Sure it will reduce your biggest pile of creeper. Make sure that your creeper pile is wide, and work with the creeper that's outside the Bertha's blast radius.
- Covering entire areas with digitalis helps, since digitalis speeds creeper flow so more creeper can escape the blast radius before the next blast hits.

Hope this helps!
