As for what would happen next, the Zerg commanders, even if they were stupid, could have guessed and instantly understood the importance of this third line of defense, but the situation had developed to this extent, and there were few options for them.

Among them, the most feasible is to take the initiative to abandon the operation of flanking the coalition assault corps, and transfer the idle strength to strengthen the strength of the third line of defense.

In this way, although the defensive formation is still disordered, it can resist the rescue forces with absolute strength, at least they can hold the position behind the second line of defense, and ensure that they will not be attacked from both sides.

Although this action means that they will give up their low-hanging fruit, the Zerg command will have to choose between the two when the two conditions are not compatible.

Obviously, compared to the safety of the entire camp, those results that are still in hand are not so important.

At this time, there was already silence in the communication channels of the rescue fleet, and the commanders of these fleets never thought that things would develop to this stage.

Now they remembered their previous evaluation of their new commander, and were silent without their own superficial judgment.

In the past few years, a series of things have happened one after another that they could not have imagined, and the development of events has confirmed the correctness of all the instructions of the chief.

At this time, they understood what kind of existence this Ming elite in the mouths of the chiefs was.

Now, these fleets will not hesitate to carry out all the orders issued by Zhang Yunfan, and this undoubtedly makes Zhang Yunfan's command smoother.

————————————————————

On the battlefield, the Zerg troops that were attacking the coalition assault corps suddenly slowed down and began to retreat slowly.

This sudden sense of relaxation made the various fleets that had been struggling to support them relax a lot for a while, and everyone present was full of joy in their hearts, with a sense of immediacy for the rest of their lives after the catastrophe.

However, this feeling did not wait long for them to consume, and this Zerg army, which had been out of the battlefield, was slaughtered again, and the attack was no worse than the most intense before.

This action of the Zerg directly caught these assault fleets by surprise, and a large number of fleets suffered heavy losses in this attack of the Zerg, and only a few fleets that reacted quickly were spared.

However, this raid by the Zerg also completely disrupted the formation of these assault fleets, and if it was a normal battle, there was only one fate waiting for these fleets, that is, the annihilation of the entire army.

However, fortunately, the rescue fleet gave greater pressure to the third front of the Zerg in a timely manner, forcing these mobile fleets of the Zerg to have to defend back, which allowed these assault fleets to survive.

When all the Zerg attack forces were withdrawn, the assault fleets were finally able to reorganize their formations and begin to slowly withdraw from the battlefield as ordered.

The attack of the rescue force on the other side at this time also became a little unsmooth with the return defense of the Zerg mobile fleet.

Although the rescue fleet still occupies the advantage of the formation and has achieved great results, in the face of this absolute combat power, no matter how exquisite the tactics are, it is still a little insufficient.

Zhang Yunfan glanced at the situation on the battlefield lightly, then observed the movements of the entire Zerg, and shook his head silently.

"What's wrong?" Xuan Yu on the side asked.

"Nothing, everything is in plan!" Zhang Yunfan smiled and said, "It's just that I didn't expect the Zerg to be so cooperative!" ”

"Really?" Xuan Yu felt a lot more relaxed when he heard this, and said, "What about the next action?" ”

"Retreat!" Zhang Yunfan waved his hand and simply spit out these two words.

"Why is that?" Xuan Yu blurted out and asked.

"Then you'll understand!" Zhang Yunfan called up a battlefield projection and began to order the communication group to give orders.

In today's rescue fleet, due to Zhang Yunfan's previous precise command actions, all the commanders have obeyed his orders, and all the orders he issued have been carried out very firmly, and this order to retreat is naturally no exception.

Soon, the firepower of the fleet in the attacking position began to slowly decrease, and the formation of the entire fleet began to change silently according to the transmission, from an offensive battle formation with both attack and defense to an assault formation that highlighted speed and burst.

In the face of opponents who do not need to break the formation, this change of formation is obviously the rhythm of running.

However, even though the purpose of this fleet had been perceived, the third line of defense of the Zerg at this time did not take action to stop it.

Now the third line of defense is indulging in the reorganization of the formation, restoring the actual role of the third line of defense, as for the annihilation of the incoming enemy, that is the option in the back, at this time the Zerg still wish that this coalition fleet can get out of the battlefield as soon as possible, so that they can devote themselves to the reorganization of the formation.

So, under this deliberate indulgence of the Zerg, the rescue fleet successfully changed its formation and began their "evacuation" operation.

These rescue fleets formed an assault formation with the Celestial Shadow Fleet as the core, and the entire fleet made a big turning action before the third line of defense of the Zerg, and then began to return from the original route.

However, although Zhang Yunfan successfully completed the task, how could this young commander be willing before he achieved decisive results!

So after giving up the key node of attacking the third line of defense, Zhang Yunfan naturally set his sights on the second line of defense of the Zerg.

In Zhang Yunfan's opinion, now is the best time for them to raid the second line of defense.

Of course, this is not an unfounded conjecture.

The current Zerg, the third line of defense has not fully recovered its function, two attack fronts, one fighting in a roundabout way, is far from reaching the attack position, and the other is still guarding the crumbling third line of defense without time to care.

As the target of the second front, it was already precarious in the face of the toughness of the Zerg in the front, and it was simply unable to pay attention to the actions of the other fleets of the coalition, let alone their fleet, which they had already decided to withdraw.

In this case, the fleet began to return the same route as it had been.

In the first half of the operation, this fleet has maintained the normal state of the retreating fleet, not in a hurry or in a hurry, and has maintained its own combat effectiveness. By the time the fleet reached the middle of the march, the fleet's movements began to change slightly.

At this time, the thrusters of the fleet battleships began to slowly increase their strength, and the speed of the entire fleet immediately entered a state of increase.

Soon, the fleet's speed of travel was raised to an extremely high limit in this constant acceleration, meeting the limits required for the assault.

In this way, when the rescue fleet passed through a point, the entire fleet directly carried out a large turning action at high speed, and under the leadership of the pilot ship, it rushed directly to the flank and rear of the second defense line of the Zerg.
