At this moment Reo, the fierce battle between the two sides has entered a fever pitch.
On the Star Path battlefield in the Vite direction, the Reo defenders have shown a defeat.
After three hours of fierce fighting, the firepower had declined to 2/3 of its peak.
After all, at its peak, there were 300,000 warships firing simultaneously on this line of defense, and hundreds of thousands of backup, ready to replace the missing ones at any time.
But now, there are only less than 200,000 warships left out of more than 700,000. There are many places on the defense line where firepower is sparse due to insufficient warships.
On the other hand, the Kabart fleet on the opposite side still has a combat strength of no less than 500,000, and the battle loss ratio between the two sides has also gradually changed from the nearly 1:1 that has been maintained for a long time.
On the other side, the Star Path battlefield in the direction of Sicil finally established a bridgehead after paying the price of more than 400,000 warships. A front line of 150,000 warships has gathered at the exit of Star Path.
Although in this battlefield, after three hours, the Reo defenders only lost less than 50,000 warships and destroyed more than 400,000 warships of the opponent, with a battle loss ratio as low as nearly 1:9.
But after all, the number of troops is small, and there are only 650,000 warships left on the defense line. On the Kabart side, outside the bridgehead line composed of 150,000 warships, there are 1.4 million warships behind them that are gradually joining the battlefield through Star Path.
For the commander of Reo, there is simply no hope.
When the battlefield lasted for the fourth hour, the Star Path battlefield in the direction of Vite completely collapsed, leaving less than 20,000 remnant troops still weakly resisting everywhere.
Speaking of the Oakes Empire's soldiers, Lin Fan also lamented that the collapse theory said that it is really difficult to use on the Oakes Empire's fleet. This is a fleet that will fire at you even if it only has the last battleship left.
In the several battles that Lin Fan has experienced, apart from Proxima, when Lancer mistook humans for Level 4 Civilization and proposed surrender, which other time did Oakes people surrender? Every time it ends when the last battleship is destroyed.
On this point, Lin Fan really admires Oakes Empire's soldiers.
At this time, the Kabart fleet attacking from Vite obviously did not want to tangle with the remaining Reo defenders, leaving 50,000 warships to finish off, while the other 400,000 warships rushed directly towards the Star Path battlefield in the direction of Sicil.
This made the commander of the Reo defenders even more bitter. There were only 550,000 warships left. It was no longer enough to defend the enemies in the direction of Sicil. However, at this time, there were 400,000 warships coming from the side. How could we continue to fight this battle?
He has already seen the final outcome. At a distance of 0.2 AU, it only takes one and a half hours for the Kabart Empire's fleet to enter the range. Then he will be attacked from two sides and completely defeated.
In order to avoid this result, the commander of the Reo garrison issued a very bold order.
"All warships no longer maintain their lines, move forward at full speed, and crash into the opponent's array to start a close melee!"
It is impossible to retreat. Oakes Empire soldiers are not allowed to abandon their positions and escape. This rule is deeply implanted in the minds of every Oakes Empire soldier.
Back then, Adams was defeated twice and Asteroid Belt retreated back. That was because he was the attacker, not defending the position!
If Liang Xingchen were to attack the Jupiter base of Adams, it would definitely be impossible for even the last battleship to retreat.
Therefore, with this kind of honor and this kind of pride, this is also the only solution Reo garrison commander can think of at present.
What should I do if I don't want to be attacked from both sides by my opponents? Then just rush into the opponent's array and start a melee. Then the other side won't be able to shoot from the side, unless he wants to blow up the Kabart fleet over there with Sicil!
Another advantage is that once you rush in and start a melee, you won't face a big difference in strength. Even if the opponent's strength is ten times your own, the number of people who can fight you in the same area during the melee will not be too many.
Anyway, he must lose, so even if he loses, he must also make the other party have a hard time, and finally bite off a piece of the other party's flesh. This is the real thought in his mind now!
After receiving the order, the 550,000 defenders started their engines without hesitation, and while shooting, they rushed towards the enemy array in the direction of Sicil at high speed!
This time, it was completely beyond the expectations of the Kabart fleet, and even caused some slight panic.
Reo What are the defenders doing? Suicide attack? You knew you were going to lose, so you rushed forward and died together?
Ten minutes later, more than 500,000 warships rushed directly into the array of the Kabart fleet, and then the two sides started a close-range melee. For a while, all fighter jets were released by both sides. The entire array was filled with flashes of light of various colors and explosions.
Even Faris, who brought a fleet of 400,000 people to attack, was stunned when he was on the way. How could he attack from a flank in this situation? He couldn't attack at all!
"Quick, rush to the battlefield at full speed, then release all the fighter planes to help!"
This is the only thing Faris can do. Isn't it possible that his own fleet will rush directly into the array?
Don't be kidding, if you do this, the happiest person will be the Reo defenders!
More than an hour later, Faris led the fleet to the edge of the battlefield. Millions of fighter planes ejected from the aircraft carrier and rushed into the battlefield!
At this time, the Reo defenders were having a difficult time. Originally, they had about the same number of fighters as the opponent, but they were evenly matched in a short period of time. After all, the opponent's fleet still had 1 million soldiers left in the Star Path.
But the 400,000 warships coming over and millions of fighter planes came in, which suddenly changed the entire battlefield situation. The number of fighters on both sides directly became 1:3, and our own fighters instantly fell into decline.
As time goes by, this decline continues to amplify after more battleships emerge from the Sicil direction Star Path.
Until the eighth hour after the war started, all the Reo defenders' fighter planes were lost, and there were only less than 200,000 battleships left. The commander painfully issued the last order, an order he never thought he would issue.
"Order all battleships to take away a Kabart battleship even if they die. If there is a chance, even if it is a collision, they will be rammed by me!"
After the order was issued, the entire fleet went crazy. The Oakes fleet, which had long been red-eyed, rushed forward and shot wildly.
Originally, although the battlefield was chaotic, both sides still controlled the warships to avoid collisions during the battle, but now everything has changed.
Collisions of battleships occurred everywhere, with Oakes battleships running rampant and Kabart battleships desperately dodging.
An extremely chaotic melee scene. At this moment, a touch of madness is added to the chaos. This madness is also the last glory of the Oakes Empire soldier!
At the 12th hour after the war started, the last Oakes Empire battleship was hit by a volley while rushing towards a Kabart battleship!
At this point, the entire battle came to an end.
I'm very tired today and wanted to go to bed early.
But it seems that I am used to typing at this time every day. I can't sleep at all, but my energy is getting better again.
As a result, another chapter has been coded!
