The alliance's second line of defense, on the flagship bridge.
"Report, Commander Wang Hai's fleet has broken through to the predetermined depth. Currently, the enemy has gathered more than a hundred legions at the preset position."
"No need to wait any longer. One Chaos Ray Carrier cannot cover a larger area. Inform Wang Hai and start taking action as planned in ten seconds!"
"Yes, Commander!"
At the same time, Noreya Empire's fleet array was in the center.
"Report, the third coded command came from General Lin Yu!"
"Order the entire fleet to stop the advance and move to both sides as quickly as possible to avoid it."
"Yes, Commander!"
——
On the battlefield, the situation suddenly changed. The advancing fleet suddenly stopped and turned to both sides.
This turn of events shocked the frontline commanders at Norea.
You must know that the current formations of both sides are directly based on taking the Wang Hai fleet as hostages.
Once the Wang Hai fleet leaves its current position and the imperial fleet is still there, wouldn't it become a direct target?
After all, Heretics attacked six times in a short period of time before, but only attacked four times in the last round, that is to say.
There are cultists who still have the ability to attack at least twice.
There was no time to think too much, and he immediately ordered the fleet to follow Heretics's movements.
However, when Noreya Empire's fleet started to take action, it was already more than ten seconds slower than Wang Hai's, and these more than ten seconds were enough to be fatal.
Among the flagships of the second line of defense, Lin Yu has been keeping an eye on the changes in the real-time battlefield model.
At this moment, the irradiation range of Chaos No. 5 and the number of fleets in that range are displayed.
Wang Hai fleet, the number of fleets still within the irradiation range is 17%.
For the Noreya Empire's fleet, this number is 71%.
Soon, when the fleet of Wang Hai became 0, the fleet of the Noreya Empire still had 55%.
As mentioned before, this slow beat can be fatal.
"Start irradiation!"
"Yes, the target is calibrated and the irradiation begins!"
Located in the center of the second line of defense, Chaos No. 5 released the terrifying ray again, and all the imperial fleets that could not avoid it were destroyed in an instant.
"Report to Commander, the irradiation of Chaos No. 5 has been completed and approximately 48 legions of the enemy fleet have been destroyed!"
"Chaos Six still has 17 minutes to complete charging. Do you need to deploy it?"
The deputy asked after reporting the results of the battle.
"No need, Chaos Liuhao doesn't understand yet. If you use them all, then the opponent can attack without any scruples!"
"Understood!"
"Command Wang Hai, then let him fight freely, completely disrupt the enemy's rear array, and at the same time snipe Noreya Empire's follow-up fleet, and at the same time let the fleet on the defense line attack, and once again cut up the remaining enemy fleet!"
"Yes, Commander!"
After two rounds of Chaos Ray attacks, about one-third of the 410 legions were lost.
This loss is actually not big, at least compared to the previous chaos, it is already quite small.
However, the Wang Hai fleet and the Civilization Guardian with nearly one million people were an exception. On one hand, they firmly contained half of the remaining fleet of the Noreya Empire, and on the other hand, they also intercepted the approach of the empire's follow-up fleet.
Originally, the more than 140 legions of the Wang Hai fleet would definitely not be able to do this.
However, after adding nearly one million Civilization Guardian, it is not that difficult.
At least for a short time.
And Lin Yu doesn't take much time.
Excluding the fleet contained by Wang Hai, the imperial fleet now in front of Lin Yu is only 150 legions at best, while Lin Yu has 428 legions on the defense line, nearly three times the strength. It is very easy to cut the imperial fleet into several parts, and form one encirclement and annihilation battlefield after another.
It is not the frontline commander of the Noreya Empire who does not want to bring back the other 100-odd legions to restore the disadvantage.
But the problem is, being restrained by the Wang Hai fleet and nearly one million Civilization Guardians, how can it be so easy to withdraw as soon as you want?
In desperation, I had no choice but to continue to hold on.
After all, the Wang Hai fleet does not have many troops. As the follow-up fleets arrive one after another, if they continue to stay in that position, they will easily be attacked from both sides.
Therefore, the time set by Lin Yu is one hour, which is when the number of the empire's follow-up fleets at the entrance of the passage does not exceed 50 legions.
Otherwise, as time goes by, the battle losses of the Wang Hai fleet will gradually begin to soar.
In other words, there is not much time left for Lin Yu to fight this encirclement and annihilation battle.
However, although it is an encirclement and annihilation battle, it does not really mean annihilating them all. Otherwise, it would not be possible to do it in two hours, let alone one hour.
Therefore, the real purpose of Lin Yu is not to annihilate the opponent, but to reduce the opponent's strength to the greatest extent within a limited time and prepare for the subsequent battle during the Chaos Ray window period.
——
One hour later.
"Report, the scheduled time has been reached, and the current annihilation rate is 34.8%."
"Where is Wang Hai?"
"The enemy fleet still has 125 legions. At the same time, Noreya Empire has once again gathered 47 legions at the entrance of the passage. They are currently attacking our fleet. The loss of Commander Wang Hai has increased significantly compared to ten minutes ago."
"Order Wang Hai, immediately command the fleet to break out from the predetermined position, and at the same time dispatch a hundred legions to meet them."
"Yes, Commander!"
When the order was issued, Wang Hai, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately began to break out.
The hundred legions mobilized by Lin Yu also made his breakout much easier.
In the end, all the fleets were withdrawn at a very slight price.
After confirming that Wang Hai successfully broke through, Lin Yu also started making arrangements.
After all, his own fleet is mixed with the enemy's remnants at the front, so it is very particular how to withdraw.
Of course, these are not difficult for Lin Yu.
"Adjutant, have the results been calculated?"
After safely returning to the second line of defense and redeploying the defense, Lin Yu asked.
"The statistics have been completed."
"In the previous hour of battle, in the first battlefield, we annihilated a total of about 57 legions of the Noreya Empire fleet, and our own losses were 9 legions."
"At the same time, in the second battlefield, Commander Wang Hai attacked and destroyed approximately 56 legions of the enemy fleet, and his own losses were 12 legions and 178 Civilization Guardian."
"Currently, the enemy's remaining forces are being integrated and reorganized, and the number is 237 legions!"
Looking at the data in the terminal, the deputy reported.
After one hour of fighting, the results obtained by Wang Hai were no less than those achieved by more than 400 legions of Lin Yu.
Of course, this does not mean how strong Wang Hai's fleet is, or how good its command is.
The main reason is that Wang Hai has a whole team of the Civilization Guardian Legion, and their attack power is extremely terrifying.
It is precisely because of the existence of this legion that in the second battlefield, although the strength of Wang Hai has always been less than that of the Noreya Empire, it still achieved a very good battle loss ratio.
"Instruct Wang Hai, Civilization Guardian Legion to retreat to the rear of the defense line and stand by. The fleet will fill in the second line of defense to supplement the strength of the defense line. After filling the second line of defense, the remaining fleet will serve as a reserve fleet and will also stand by behind the defense line!"
"Yes, Commander!"
