The fleets on the first line of defense had been fighting for eight hours.
Even though Chaos Ray is such a powerful weapon, it cannot all be used by the first line of defense.
After all, recharging also takes time. If the first line of defense is used up, the subsequent lines of defense will have to wait twelve hours for recharging before they can be used.
If something unexpected happens and the charging is not finished, it will not be good.
Therefore, the first line of defense is assigned only three opportunities to fire.
Now, these three opportunities have been used up, and the Noreya Empire fleet at the entrance of the passage is gathering more and more, with the number exceeding one hundred legions.
"Commander, the base camp ordered us to abandon the first line of defense and retreat to the rear to rest."
"Understood, order all fleets and warships not to turn around, and retreat in an orderly manner while maintaining firepower."
"Yes, Commander!"
This retreat is also very particular. If you turn around and run away, there is a high probability that the opponent will chase you and hit you.
By the way, take advantage of this opportunity, use your retreating fleet as a cover, rush into the second line of defense to engage in a melee, and provide more time to assemble at the entrance of the passage.
However, Wang Hai will not give them this opportunity.
Although the speed will be much slower if we don't turn around and retreat, it doesn't matter.
As long as the firepower is maintained, the opponent cannot directly attack, and the second line of defense can be handed over smoothly.
At the same time, Alliance Fleet base camp.
"Marshal, the Wang Hai fleet has begun to retreat."
"Well, have you finished counting the battle losses in the first phase?"
"Alright, Marshal, in the first stage, our fleet lost 68 warships and legions, and the local fleet lost 335 warships and legions!"
"Sure enough, just relying on Alliance Fleet is still a bit reluctant!"
After eight hours of fighting, the battle damage was almost 1:5, but Lin Fan was obviously not very satisfied.
However, the fleets deployed in the first line of defense are all Alliance warships, not Federation warships.
In terms of combat power alone, although Joint Warship is slightly stronger than Norea, its strength is limited.
After the opponent's fleet increases in number, our own losses will naturally soar. It would be great to achieve this result.
About ten minutes later.
The fleet on the first line of defense commanded by Wang Hai has retreated behind the second line of defense, and the defenders of the second line of defense immediately took over the battle.
Of course, since it is further away from Cross-border Channel, there are more fleets on the second line of defense.
There are a full 500 legions, and there are 200 legions behind the defense line as reserves, which can fill the gaps in the defense line at any time. The commander is Lin Yu.
Like the first line of defense, there are no federal warships here, they are all composed of Joint Warship from each alliance.
Five hundred legions versus 120 legions.
Noreya Empire The forces that had finally been brought together were pulled apart again.
The advantage of having fewer troops is formed instantly.
Lin Fan's goal requirement for Lin Yu is to hold on to the second line of defense for at least 2 days and eliminate more than 1,000 of the opponent's legions.
At the same time, five Chaos Ray Carrier will be authorized for his use.
In two days, Noreya Empire can roughly transport 2,000 legions through Cross-border Channel.
Although 700 legions versus 2,000 legions seems a bit unrealistic.
But
Noreya Empire's 2,000 legions did not arrive together, but gradually arrived over two days.
Therefore, at least on the first day, Lin Yu will always have the advantage in strength.
As for the second day, the ability of the frontline commanders will be tested.
Generally speaking, it is not difficult to hold on for two days. What is difficult is how to kill more than a thousand legions of the opponent.
After all, considering the number of legions, even if the command ability of 700 legions is poor, they will not all be annihilated in two days.
You know, the reason why Wang Hai was able to kill more than 300 legions in eight hours was because it blocked the opponent at the entrance of the passage and the other was because of the support of Chaos Ray.
But Noreya Empire does not carry this.
Strategic level Superweapon.
——
Soon, another whole day passed, and 32 hours had passed since the beginning of the war.
Within this day, it was basically the same as Lin Fan predicted, a satisfactory development.
With the strength advantage and the five Chaos Ray carrier ships, although the battle damage was higher than the first eight hours of the first line of defense, it still achieved a score of 1:3.6.
The Alliance lost 149 legions, and Noreya Empire lost 536 legions.
But as the battle on the second line of defense entered its second day, the fleet gathered by the Noreya Empire was almost on par with Alliance Fleet on the line of defense.
superiority in force
There are almost none left.
However, Lin Yu has been holding back, waiting to give Noreya Empire a hard blow.
"Commander, Chaos One to No. 5 have all moved into position!"
"Is the enemy making any moves?"
"No, it's still the same as before, keep the front side open horizontally!"
"Very good, notify the fleet on the ray to avoid it immediately!"
"Understood, the order has been issued and is expected to be completed in 57 seconds."
If you want to describe the current battlefield, then the alliance has a mesh defense structure centered on the Cross-border Channel port.
As for the Noreya Empire's fleet, it faced the center of the defense line and spread out horizontally.
Logically speaking, this is not a very good formation, but why did Noreya Empire's fleet choose this method?
This is about the trap that Lin Yu spent a day setting.
During this day, each of the five Chaos Ray Carriers in the hands of Lin Yu conducted two rounds of fire, which meant that they attacked ten times.
And this kind of strategic-level weapon is what Noreya Empire is paying special attention to now.
Then, it is obvious that Noreya Empire will definitely make various corresponding arrangements for this weapon in order to minimize casualties.
So, Lin Yu made a decision.
Ten shots were fired, all from the center of the defense line!
Since then, I have unknowingly left Noreya Empire with a wrong thinking, that is
The enemy's Superweapon is fixedly installed, but on the second line of defense, it is only driven in the center of the line of defense.
Therefore, after seeing this "weakness" of Alliance Fleet, the frontline commander of the Noreya Empire immediately made adjustments, completely facing the center point of the defense line, and then spreading it horizontally.
In this way, Chaos Ray on the Alliance's side can at most just open a hole in its fleet, which will not cause too much damage.
In the last two of the ten firings, the damage caused by the two rounds of irradiation did not even reach the level of five legions.
And this also proves that their tactics are correct.
But they don't know that all of this is just a trap played by Lin Yu.
However.
But they got in honestly.
