Chapter 148

The Marindorff system, which has a fairly good ecology, is one of the closest aristocratic fiefdom systems to Odin. It has a huge star as its host star, two terrestrial planets in the distant orbit of the fourth planet, and a huge gaseous planet in the outer orbit of the sixth planet.

Reinhardt's main fleet is now stationed on the outer side of the gaseous planet.

Reinhardt's fleet consisted of Admirals such as Rochenthal, Bidenfeldt, Lutz, Mecklinger, and Camper, with a total of 62,000 ships.

And Gilfias took Midamaia and Murat's fleet to go to Odin to suppress the Marquis of Lidianrad, Midamaia and Murat's fleet disappeared for a few days, and finally arrived in the Valhalla system slowly, and the Gilfias fleet that arrived early After Midamaia and Murat arrived, Gilfias also went against the norm and directly launched arrests and executions with brutal means............. The entire family of the Marquis of Lidianrad was executed, except for children under the age of ten, and a group of nobles who were in tandem with the Marquis of Lidianrad were buried for him.

It was after this incident that the Order of the Child Emperor was issued, and Reinhardt became Chancellor and Supreme Military Governor of the Empire, and at the same time conveyed that the whole Empire "stripped Rudolf von Fafnier of his countdom and the rank of Marshal of the Empire." ”

"Hahaha, now I'm a civilian. Gustav, you too. The blonde kid is really funny!' are we ready to go to him here?" Fafnier sat on the flagship "Loki" and smiled at Schuttchaus.

"At your command, the Shaker has been thrown into the stars. Are we going to fight the blonde boy now? Let him know that it is useless to say that it is useless!"

"Yes, order this fleet, the Ron Stead fleet, and the Yang fleet to advance to the Golden Retriever! The Storfin fleet is still attacking in various systems loyal to Royankram!"

A full 60,000 warships passed through Vape to the outer reaches of the Mariendorf system, and just an hour later, the huge artificial celestial body, the City of Condors, also passed through Vape to the Mariindorf system.

The City of Condor has been refitted, and after installing twelve giant vape engines on the City of Condor, Major-General Dior has installed dozens of giant engines along the center of mass for general propulsion.

Soon, the Fafnir fleet was slowly pressing on Reinhardt's fleet with the city of vultures as a reserve.

Reinhardt emotionally refused to acknowledge Fafnier's military prowess, but intellectually he had to admit: "This rogue dragon is one of the best combat commanders in the Empire." "This perception.

At the operational meeting convened, Rochenthal and Bidianfeldt proposed to concentrate the firepower of the strike on the Rondested and Young fleets, while the main fleet worked hard to defend and quickly recall the Gilfias fleet, so as to slowly establish a superior tactic. "We can't use the method of attacking from the side or up and down, so that our main guns with the city of condor are in a line, and when the time comes, we will be bombarded continuously under the main guns until we fail. These are the words of Rochenthal.

"No, this time we use the tactics of luring the enemy into depth. I myself will take command of the fleet under my command and take on the task of luring the enemy and holding back the main force of Fafnir's fleet! After he has pursued his headquarters deeply, I will attack the fortress with one powerful fleet while his fleet is out of touch with the city of vultures in the rear, while the other powerful fleets will take the opportunity to encircle the Fafnier's fleet and defeat it!" said Reinhardt triumphantly.

"No, it can't be like this, Your Excellency Marshal, your fleet is not as numerous as the Fafnir fleet, how can you defend and hold him back?" the admirals objected.

But Reinhardt picked up the glass and poured it over a stack of white paper on the table. The admirals, led by Rochenthal, suddenly came to their senses and bowed their heads in admiration for the tactical skills of their commander-in-chief.

Then, the Reinhardt army discharged a half-moon formation, Reinhardt's fleet of about 15,000 ships protruded from the other fleets, and the left and right flanks were the camp and Mecklinger fleets, the Rutz fleet suffered large losses and was not replenished, so the reinforcement of the Rochenthal fleet cruised on the periphery, ready to make a feint attack on the city of vultures at the right time, and the Bidianfeldt fleet was deployed as a reserve in the rear of the Reinhardt fleet, ready to carry out a powerful assault at the decisive moment to completely defeat the Fafnir fleet.

At a distance of about twenty light seconds, the Fafnir fleet was also deployed, and Admiral Rondstead was a middle-aged general in his forties of the Imperial Army, who had no outstanding ability, but was just a dull and not losing general, and the biggest advantage was to carry out the orders of his superiors without discount.

His fleet, consisting mainly of battleships and cruisers, numbered about thirteen thousand, and he was ordered to serve as the right flank of the whole army and drag it behind. Vice Admiral Jung Heinrich Young commanded a powerful strike fleet of 12,000 warships, and served as the left flank salient of the whole army. The 19,000 ships of the Fafnier fleet, mainly battleships and mine-strike carriers, served as the central force, and a fleet of 6,000 high-speed destroyers and cruisers of Vice Admiral Dalke, who operated a little behind the left flank, was ready to launch a surprise operation at any time. The rest of the ships are leaning on the city of vultures, ready to replenish to the front line at any time. The City of Condors lags behind the least—because it's the slowest......... However, soon Favenir, seeing the formation on the opposite side, ordered the entire fleet to move slowly and informed the chief of staff of the Condor City, Admiral Shutkhajan, to be ready to carry out the plan at any time.

The fleets of both sides gradually approached, and at a distance of 10 light-seconds, Yang in the salient on the left flank began to shoot. Hundreds of thousands of spears of light pierced directly into the Reinhardt fleet in front of him, and Reinhardt also began to counterattack, and ships on both sides continued to explode into a ball of light.

Soon, as Fafnir's Central Flotilla came into range, Reinhardt's fleet was routed, but another line of battle appeared in front of it and a battle line began to exchange fire.

"Hey, what is this Reinhardt trying to do? This tactic? doesn't he learn his lesson?" said Fafnier, after carefully observing Reinhardt's tactics.

Reinhardt used a left-right scattered grouping, and each time the defeated troops retreated to the other side to regroup, and then inserted left and right again to resist.

"Hasn't he learned the Lanchester Formula until now?" the only use of this tactic is to send his own troops to die under our artillery fire, and every time the troops that come to defend are insufficient and easily routed, and the faster this style of play breaks down the further it goes............" Favenier laughed.

"Why does the Golden Retriever have to deploy the other fleets on the two flanks behind? Come up and shoot at me at the beginning, isn't it good to flank the attack? At least the exchange ratio won't suffer? Maybe you can still repel Yang. ”

"Keep slowing down!This fleet is too!The Dragonstead fleet picks up slightly, slowing down as soon as it comes into range!Shoot at him!" Favenir said with a flick of his finger.

The bombardment of Fafnier's fleet put Reinhardt in a dilemma, and his multi-layered defensive tactics caused his fleet to rapidly reduce under the concentrated shelling of the enemy, and at the same time inflicted more and more losses on the enemy. And now Fafnir's fleet has clearly slowed down its advance and is concentrating on firing at his array, and the number of losses has skyrocketed.

"We have to change tactics!" said the blonde lion, biting his nails.

"The fleets on both sides must be brought up!"

The camp and Mecklinger fleets on both flanks quickly rose up, and at this moment the Reinhardt fleet protruding in the center had been flattened.

"Don't go up fast!We'll exchange losses with them!Tell the City of Condors to change direction according to the plan!" Fafnir continued to give orders, and his fleet was bathed in the rain of beams and exchanged ships with Reinhardt's fleet.

The City of Condor changed its course of travel, moving sideways from the rear of the Fafnir fleet, pulling the Rochenthal fleet that had been trying to insert between the fortress and the Fafnir fleet.

If the Rochenthal fleet gambled between the fortress and the fleet, it would be a headache for Fafnier, but he himself would probably be doomed. Now Rochenthal and the Luz fleet were constantly tentatively attacking the fortress, but their flanks were to withstand the artillery fire of the Rondested's fleet, which was beginning to turn at ninety degrees, unless they made a detour to the periphery and used the fortress to block the line of fire of the Rondested's fleet, but if they did, they would become rangers for a while, and would be of no use at all.

The battle had been going on for six hours, during which Reinhardt had lost forty percent of his direct fleet, and his own front had begun to show holes, forcing Camp and Mecklinger to fill in the center in order to maintain their formation.

"No!

"Alright, call Dark to attack, it's out of his range!"

Both sides simultaneously dispatched high-speed assault fleets. Reinhardt's high-speed battleships, all painted black, began with the flagship "Wang Hu", and slashed at Favinir's fleet from the gap in Reinhardt's array

At the same time, between the two fleets of Yang on the first line and Favinir a little behind the flank, 6,000 intact high-speed destroyers also rushed towards the enemy's formation under the leadership of a fire dragon-class squadron flagship, the "Gruncast".

The two commanders roared at the same time: "Attack! Attack! Assault with all your might!"

With around 8,000 black lancers, they were the most powerful assault fleet in Reinhardt's army, and they attacked Favinir's home at high speed.

"It's a troublesome opponent. Alright, the battleship detachment will go up to the top! Slow them down regardless of casualties! Mine strike boats and cruisers are ready!"

A single blow from the Black Lancers cost Favenir more than 2,000 ships forever, but there were still many ships that blocked their bodies in the Black Lancers' assault path, and even if they were destroyed, they would have to create roadblocks.

The speed of the black strong cavalry slowed down, and Bidenfeldt's attention was focused on the group of battleships in front of him, and at this moment he had successfully destroyed more than 3,000 warships in the Fafnir fleet, so that a detachment of the fleet would be removed from the list. But at this very moment, countless railguns and beams of light enveloped the entire black lancer from the side......... It was also a successful blow, which caused the Black Lance Fleet to lose a lot of its colleagues, and the biggest trouble was that their speed slowed down all of a sudden.

"Haha

The fire of Reinhardt's fleet caused the fleet of more than 2,000 Dalk to disappear into space, but the artillery fire also took a toll on the black lancers farther forward......... At the moment when Darke rushed behind the black lancers regardless of losses, "Fight hard!!! Shoot me all the shells! I'll let him overheat and die!!" Darke was in a complete frenzy.

The black lancers disappeared almost instantly......... "Admiral Bidenfeldt's communication is cut off!" called the signal corpodimen on Brenshire. Reinhardt stood up.

"Admiral Dark's communications are gone!" the signal corps on Loki called out in the same way.............
