In order to make this operation go smoothly, the coalition forces mobilized almost all the fleets, and in this first phase of the attack alone, the coalition forces have gathered ten large expeditionary corps, totaling more than five million warships.

And Zhang Yunfan's Celestial Shadow Fleet, as the sharp knife of the five million fleet, has already improved the performance of the entire fleet to the best state, just waiting for the last signal of battle.

With a shiny flare streak across the dark void, the battle is officially underway.

The Celestial Shadow Fleet bore the brunt of the attack, and the ten division-level formations in the fleet began to rush towards the Zerg camp in a neat formation, and the Zerg side was obviously aware of this operation because of the unified deployment of the coalition forces, and also made some preparations in advance.

However, these zergs also understand that with the strength of their troops now, the five million fleets against the coalition are not completely without the power to resist, so they first attack the coalition forces on all fronts, without the slightest retreat, and directly start to meet the formation that has been arranged before.

This time, the Zerg no longer hid their strength, and the battle began with its own firepower in full swing, with dense ranged attack units poking out of the Zerg's defensive front and launching countless blazing energy attacks at the assault on the allied fleet that was advancing at great speed.

As the sharp knife of the assault front, the Celestial Shadow Fleet was of course attacked by concentrated fire, but Zhang Yunfan had already prepared for this, he had gathered the armored assault ships of the whole fleet together before the battle, and arranged them directly to the front of the assault formation, with such a meat shield as a cover, the casualties of the Celestial Shadow Fleet were naturally much less.

In addition, this time the Shadow Fleet is also in a different state than before.

The original function of the Celestial Shadow Fleet was to independently carry out assault operations while ensuring the speed of travel, and it was precisely because of this that the Celestial Shadow Fleet completely abandoned the attachment of heavy warships and chose armored assault ships, which only have strong speed and defense.

Therefore, in the previous operations of the Celestial Shadow Fleet, there was no long-range fire support at all, and they relied on the flexible and mobile displacement speed and the strong defense of the armored assault ship when fighting, and the only firepower that could be counted on during the operation was nothing more than the medium main gun on the main battleship "Night Wind".

And this time, Zhang Yunfan really realized what it means to suppress firepower.

Just when the offensive of the Celestial Shadow fleet was blocked and they were habitually preparing to maneuver, the rear front sent a message, claiming that it had prepared covering fire, and asked if it was necessary to carry it out now.

Zhang Yunfan, who was facing the disadvantage of the surprise attack, naturally would not refuse in the face of strong reinforcements, and directly burst out the range of rear firepower suppression, and notified the fleet that he was ready to approach this camp as quickly as possible when the rear fleet was covered by firepower.

Just after Zhang Yunfan replied to the support fleet, within ten seconds, the rear fleet was already ready, and on those battleships, one main gun after another began to slowly deflect, aiming at the target of the fire suppression range of the front assault fleet.

As the target was locked, the barrel of the main gun began to light up with blood-red light, and a trace of energy slowly overflowed from the barrel of the gun, like stars lighting up the night sky, and the entire support fleet was also lit up by these shining red lights.

The next moment, countless huge red energy beams were sent out from the support front, rushing straight towards this camp, almost instantly, the defensive position of the Zerg front was swept by a direct high-energy laser, and the surface position was directly vaporized, and the damage caused by a round of attacks even spread to the fifth line of defense within the front.

The entire Zerg position was shattered by this round of attacks by the rear fleet, and all the Zerg that were still frantically outputting before were turned into ashes in this round of attacks.

After the resistance to the assault disappeared, the various assault fronts naturally got a relatively safe environment for their operations, and they immediately seized this opportunity and immediately advanced forward with all their might. The distance between the two sides has been greatly reduced in a very short period of time.

After the end of this round of attacks, the coalition forces still maintained their previous tactics, the assault fleet continued to advance, while the rear fire support fleet continued to store naval guns, waiting for the next round of strikes.

The coalition forces can continue this method of warfare because of the gains from this time, but the Zerg cannot.

This attack caused great losses to the Zerg camp, of which the Zerg's own losses were nothing, the most important thing was that the rhythm of the blocking was broken, and the coalition assault fleet also advanced a lot.

At this distance, the coalition assault fleet can already independently inflict damage on the Zerg camp with its own firepower, and it is impossible to press these fleets back to their original positions, at least under such conditions.

Therefore, the Zerg immediately made a change, and all the troops quickly divided into several parts, and began to move towards the coalition front in a roundabout maneuver, and the troops of the two sides were quickly pulled closer in this direction, and these troops of the Zerg approached the coalition assault front with a momentum of dying together.

At this time, the coalition forces also quickly reacted. The vanguard of the Celestial Shadow Fleet, which rushed to the front, immediately raised its bow, and the entire fleet made a big maneuver in a ninety-degree vertical direction, directly avoiding the onslaught of the Zerg.

The other fleets immediately began to follow suit, dodging this similar attack of the Zerg with a large maneuver.

Although they successfully avoided this attack, this maneuver greatly shortened the distance between the two sides, and the Zerg also took this opportunity to quickly get closer, directly engaging in close combat with the various assault units of the coalition forces.

And the coalition army's handling method was also very decisive, and the assault fleet on the entire front immediately dispersed, with the divisional formation as a combat unit, and began to fight close combat with the encircled Zerg army.

In the battle, although the Zerg outperformed the coalition fleets in terms of mutual coordination and mobility, these assault fleets were able to barely cope with the sheer speed and firepower superiority.

The rear support fleet has also changed the previous kind of covering fire support, and changed to a regional precision strike, that is, using those assault fleets in the formation as bait to gather a large number of Zerg in one place, and then solve it in one fell swoop by the rear fleet with strong firepower.

With this kind of help, these coalition fleets in the formation moved more easily, and began to rampage through the Zerg camp wantonly, wanting to completely disrupt the formation of the Zerg and cause chaos within the Zerg organization, so as to end the battle faster.

Although the Zerg are at a disadvantage, they are not powerless, after all, they have an absolute numerical advantage, as long as one force rushes into the rear camp of the coalition forces and disrupts the fire support of the fleet.

No matter how strong these assault fleets that have lost strong reinforcements are, they will eventually be completely overwhelmed by this numerical superiority, and there will be no chance of reversal.
