In the face of the counter-encirclement of the Imperial Army, Wilton immediately threw the last of his troops into the battlefield, allowing this force composed of frigates to merge with the patrol ship force to form a superior force against the Imperial Army.

But in this way, in the face of the encirclement of the Imperial Army, the battleship force under the command of Wilton himself will fall into a disadvantage in terms of strength.

Although the battleship force he was in charge of was composed of 1,000 warships, and the main force was still 700 search battleships, don't forget that the enemy had two troops.

The strength of a single unit of the Imperial Army may be less than that of the Allied Army, but the strength of the two armies together has 1,500 warships! More importantly, among these 1,500 warships, there are also these 400 heavy armored ships!

In this way, Wilton faced more enemies than himself, and the quality was no worse than his own, and the danger he faced could be imagined.

However, the so-called master moves not only to fight wisely, but also to fight! Whoever can break through the cauldron at the critical moment will be able to win the battle!

At this moment, all the moves that both sides can make have come out, and their respective fleets have already started to act according to their respective tactical intentions, and no one has any room for maneuver!

And not long after that, the battleship force led by Wilton approached the air demon force that was still fighting, and the heavy armor ship force of the imperial army also came to the rear of the air demon force, followed by the two huge fleets and began the most fierce artillery bombardment!

In the face of the Imperial Army's heavy armoured ships, the battleships of the Alliance began to vent their fire the moment the opponent entered the firing range, and this time it was not only the main guns that were firing, but also the secondary guns of the battleships began the most intense bombardment.

"Open fire! Shoot hard! No one is allowed to stop without my orders!"

"Shoot! Hit me hard!"

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

When the enemy entered the firing range, the captains of each battleship gave the order to open the cannon as soon as possible, and then the gunners aimed their guns at the enemy like crazy, and instantly fired out one magic cannonball after another.

Similarly, when the battleships of the Alliance Army entered the firing range, the heavy armored ships of the Imperial Army also launched the most fierce counterattack!

The reason why the heavy armor ship is famous is because this kind of battleship is not only strong in defense, but also no worse than any battleship, so when the battleship of the Alliance Army entered the firing range, the soldiers of the Imperial Army did not sit idle, and also began to fight back in the most crazy way!

The fierce and deafening sound of shelling resounded in the sky at this moment.

However, in all fairness, in this desperate mutual shooting, the heavy armored ships of the Imperial Army are still at a disadvantage, for no other reason than because the gap in numbers is a little too large.

There are only more than 400 heavy armored ships of the Imperial Army, and in the process of marching, they are constantly suffering from ultra-long-range attacks of the Alliance Army, although they have not caused much damage due to their strong defense, but they have also been sunk dozens of ships, so when the two sides really began to go all out to shoot at each other, the heavy armored ships of the Imperial Army were actually less than 400.

This numerical disadvantage, on average, on the battlefield, is equivalent to an Imperial heavy ship having to face the attack of two coalition forces, and not only face the main gun attack, but face the full fire baptism of the main guns and secondary guns of the two battleships!

In this case, even if the defense of the heavy armor ship is strong enough, it will still not be able to withstand it.

So in the first round of contacts between the two sides, the coalition forces can be said to have the upper hand.

At the same time, the flanking speed cruisers also began to exchange fire with the Imperial army, and after the exchange of fire, the speed cruiser force had a clear advantage, not only in terms of the number of fleets, but also in terms of quality.

The flank phalanx of the Imperial Army, consisting mainly of ordinary battleships and ordinary cruisers, as well as ordinary frigates, was a relatively regular, or rather mediocre, mixed force.

This kind of troop formation is very common on the battlefield, because in ordinary battles, the warring parties simply can't come up with a team composed of all battleships or cruisers, and the cost of this single arm configuration is too high, looking at the entire sky, probably only the Sky Alliance and Kafka's empire have the strength to form this kind of top fleet.

Therefore, this kind of mixed force seems to be able to form a good cooperation between different warships, but in the face of a strong enemy, for example, in the face of the current alliance army composed of all cruisers, it will be difficult to fight, not to mention that the alliance army is still ahead in terms of strength, which is even more difficult to fight.

The situation on the battlefield became very obvious in an instant, and when both sides had already begun to bombard at close range like hand-to-hand combat, the coalition forces instantly gained the upper hand and immediately achieved quite good results.

If the battle only stops there, and there is no longer any change to continue fighting, then there is no doubt that it will be the Alliance Army that will win, but this is not the case, in fact, this advantage of the Alliance Army did not last long, because soon time passed, and the encirclement of the Imperial Army was completed!

Soon after the Confederates gained the upper hand on the battlefield, as Wilton had expected, the third force, which had previously broken away from the main force, turned around and came up from behind the battleship force led by Wilton.

Similarly, the destroyer unit that had arrived at the fastest speed from the main formation finally entered this scene and appeared on the side of the speedy cruiser.

In this way, the encirclement of the Imperial Army is also completed!

When the encirclement was completed, the situation on the battlefield immediately changed again, first of all, due to their own reinforcements, the pressure on the two encircled Imperial troops was suddenly reduced a lot, and correspondingly, the alliance army not only did not have the advantage of fighting more and less, but also fell into a disadvantage all of a sudden.

Among them, the patrol ship force was better, because they soon waited for the last large force of the Alliance Army, that is, the frigate force, and the two were not weaker than each other in all aspects after the two converged, and almost tied with the enemy.

However, the battleship force led by Wilton fell into a great disadvantage at this time, because they did not have any reinforcements!

Originally, in the face of the heavy armored ships, Wilton and them were fighting two against one, but now, as the Imperial Army completed the encirclement, the situation was completely reversed, not only did the number of fleets become smaller than the enemy, but more importantly, the situation on the battlefield also became the enemy encircled and besieged the battleship forces in front and rear, this situation is simply too bad!
