The Marquis of Lidian Helm left the City of Condor with a total of 50,000 warships of his own private soldiers and the noble private soldiers of his faction, and headed for the route of the Gilfias fleet. An encounter with the Gilfias fleet is expected in the Chihoissa system.

After separating from Foodhardt, Siegfried Gilfias, who had been commanding the other mobile fleets that accounted for one-third of the entire army, and was responsible for pacifying the vast border star fields of the Galactic Empire, received orders again, around July.

Siegfried Gilfias was fully authorized by Reinhardt in terms of the use of troops and the administration of the occupied territories, which led to the fact that some people jokingly called him the "King of the Borderlands", a title that no one used to address him to his face.

After the red-haired young man gained the full trust of the Imperial Marshal, he did not live up to his trust in pacifying the border systems one by one. During this period, more than 60 battles were fought, and all of them were won, although there was no large-scale battle, but it was also a rare thing to be undefeated in so many battles. On the planet he pacified, in addition to handing over the planet to the local people for self-government, he also did his best to maintain the security between the planets, strictly prohibiting bullying and plunder, which was tantamount to clearly exposing the differences between his army and the nobles, so he was generally loved and supported by the people, and achieved considerable political results, and the situation on the border gradually stabilized, making the aristocratic coalition army entrenched in the city of vulture more isolated.

However, the headache for him was that the number of enemies he defeated was very small, basically only part of the guardian fleet left by the noble domain, but at the same time he was far behind a fleet - no less than him, about 40,000 warships, this is the Fafnir fleet. Like scavenging vultures, they waited for Gilfias to defeat the local aristocratic army and leave, and then went straight into the galaxy to loot and plunder military factory equipment. On more than one occasion, Gilfias tried to ambush this abominable fleet with tactics, such as the simplest and most secure tactics of pretending to leave and then suddenly turning back to make a surprise attack - but the opponent was completely unfooled, and the opponent was really like a vulture, patiently waiting until the prey was completely dead and began to rot before attacking............. Gilfias did not have much time to ambush.........

Gilfias's political achievements were at least worthless, and the love and support he had earned from maintaining the security and autonomy of the planet turned into clouds in the sky after the vultures pounced on them. Marshal Fafnir completely indulged his men in committing all kinds of war crimes, as they committed wanton robbery, murder, arson, and all kinds of evil acts in defiance of military discipline on the planet pacified by Gilfias. However, as long as Gilfias did not go to the system, Marshal Fafnir did not go! This was a complete generalization of Gilfias's army, and the people everywhere were willing to ask Gilfias not to come to their system, for which they would rather suffer the oppression of the local nobles.........

Gilfias resented Fafnir's behavior, and was about to turn back and fight Fafnir in a galaxy to try to solve the problem, but he lost track of Fafnir's fleet - they were completely missing, and their whereabouts could not be found for five hundred light-years.

Gilfias had to continue with the camp and Luz fleets until he received information that the Marquis of Lidian Helm was heading to the Chihoissa system ahead.

"Let the decisive battle take place in the Chihoissa Domain, and then I will lead about 800 warships in my headquarters to meet the enemy. "This is what Gilfias said to the other two lieutenants after receiving the information and orders.

"Only eight hundred warships?"

Kemp and Rutz's eyes widened in surprise. Gilfias, on the other hand, nodded calmly and composedly.

Although the total number of enemy fleets is as high as 50,000, they are not organized according to the performance of the ships, and the high-speed warships are next to the gunboats, and the large battleships are next to the destroyers, and all the ships are mixed together in an orderly manner, whether in terms of firepower or maneuverability, which shows that the enemy's tactical concept and command system lack consistency.

That is, a rabble, with nothing to fear. "

Gilfias made the above conclusions.

At that time, Luz and Vallie's fleets were deployed directly in front of the enemy, but not in a straight horizontal line. Instead, Lutz stands out on the left flank, and Valle retreats slightly on the right flank, forming a tactical composition of a diagonal formation. And if the enemy attacks in one fell swoop, the Lutz fleet will be the first to enter the battle state. Taking advantage of the time lag between Valle and the enemy, Gilfias commanded 800 high-speed cruisers to outflank the enemy's right side, and after Valiel entered the battle state, he would attack the enemy's center in one fell swoop and make a comprehensive breakthrough, and then reach the enemy's left side. Taking advantage of the enemy's confusion, Luz and Valle fully cooperated with the attack.

"Then you should be able to win. Then what you should pay attention to is "poor Kou Mo Chase". "

The two lieutenants then saw the red-haired young admiral, and a slight smile spread on his face. Valle and Ruz tried their best to hide their shock, but they couldn't suppress it. The seemingly docile and loyal young man smiled without any nervousness or fear when he proposed to the two of them that the commander himself should take the lead in the terrible tactic of "striking away from the battle".

At this moment, a light-year behind the Marquis, "The reconnaissance ship in front reports that the Marquis is about to engage the Red-Haired Boy in our former station, the 'Chihoissa System'. Your Excellency, are we going to speed things up?" said the Chief of Staff, Admiral Shotekhajan, to Field Marshal Fafnir.

"Yes, let's pick up a little bit and get ready for the vape jump. The target is placed a little farther away. As soon as those two guys start fighting, we'll join in. By the way, the fleet called Rundested and the Stauffenda fleet left and directly converged to go to the several galaxies behind the red hair. One of our fleets is enough to deal with Gilfias, and if it is not right, one of our fleets will run faster. The unscrupulous marshal said.

The Battle of Chihoissa began with the salvo of the main guns of the Lidian Helm Army. When the Marquis of Lidian Helm was asked by his subordinates what tactics should be used to attack, he said impatiently: "What are you afraid of! We are so powerful that we don't care what tactics he has or not! Ants bite and kill elephants, give them all to me!"

Tens of thousands of rays of light built a bridge in the dark void and began to erode the energy-neutralizing magnetic field above the Gilfias fleet, and the rainbow-colored fog produced by the particle eclipse phenomenon surrounded the warships of the Gilfias Army.

Lutz, who was standing in front of the formation, stared at the screen, and when he saw this, he couldn't help but snort coldly: "They are too anxious to fire before they reach the effective range." "

The ships of the Gilfias Army carefully maintained a diagonal formation. Soon the prominent left flank of the Lutz flotilla began an accurate and fierce shelling at a distance of six million kilometers.

Overwhelming rays of energy rained down on the ships of the Lidium Army. The strange appearance of the ship when it explodes is reflected in the intersecting light like colored diamonds. Soon after, the Lutz fleet came into contact with the enemy line and engaged in a close-quarters combat battle with the royal Goure battleboats.

At this time, Kamp's fleet was still far from the enemy, and had not yet entered into a real artillery battle.

Gilfias stood in the command seat of the flagship Barbarossa, and at the right time gave the order to attack the high-speed fleet of 800 ships directly under him. Under the cover of the advancing Camp fleet, it took advantage of the time difference to break through in an arc to the flank of the Lidian Helm Army.

At this time, the fleet of Lidianheim was busy engaging the enemy large fleet in front of it, but it was unexpectedly attacked by unknown sources, and the whole army panicked. Orders to respond were everywhere, and some of the warships tried to turn their bows towards the surprise fleet, but at this time, the attack of particle beams and missiles from the front became more violent, because the Valle fleet was already within range and began to attack.

The Lidian Helm Army was in chaos for a moment, and they didn't know which side of the enemy to deal with. Although it was a moment of chaos. But for Gilfias, it was enough.

Barbarossa's main cannon fired three salvos in a row, and the sword-like light cut down the ships in front of the Lidian Helm army, and when a series of explosions and flames disappeared, the central part of the enemy fleet was temporarily hollowed out due to the difference in speed between the ships, and Barbarossa immediately used the hole to break into the enemy's core, and 800 high-speed warships immediately followed.

The Admirals of the Lidian Hem Army also tried to surround the invading enemy, but they were unable to do so due to the lack of speed and flexibility, and the result was only to increase the losses, and the flagship of Gilfias then penetrated deep into the enemy's left side, and the blow was completely successful. Then the whole fleet changed direction and re-entered the enemy's interior, and Gilfias's 800 high-speed warships swept through the heart of the enemy's army like a whirlwind.

Seeing the enemy's scrambling scene, Camp couldn't help but sigh: "Admiral Gilfias is really bold, and he completely disrupted the enemy's position with only 800 ships!"

Lutz seems to be on the same page.

"He has long seen that there is a problem with the enemy's establishment, and it is simply vulnerable!"

When the internal chaos gradually expanded and spread to the outer edge of the fleet, Luz and Camp immediately seized the opportunity to attack with all their might, and the internal chaos combined with the external chaos, and the Lidian Helm army was immediately facing the fate of defeat. At this time, Barbarosa spotted the enemy's flagship, Ostomac, at a very close distance.

"Look, that's the flagship that the Marquis of Lidian Helm is riding, and immediately take down the culprit of the war!"

Gilfias used faster-than-light communication to give the order to capture, and the whole fleet advanced at full speed towards the enemy's flagship in order to achieve a complete victory.

In the face of the overwhelming momentum, the Marquis of Lidian Helm cowered in fear, and saw through the screen that his warship was bathed in concentrated artillery fire, and turned into a cloud of white heat, so that it was completely destroyed. When he knew that this scene was happening next to the flagship, the fear turned into a terrible horror, the marquis issued an order like a wail, and regardless of the other ships of his own side that were in the midst of a bitter battle, the flagship of Ostomac fled frantically in the direction of the Germison fortress, and the other ships saw that the commander was the first to flee, and they had no intention of fighting, and scattered in a hurry.

Even now, when he is caught in the flanking and chaotic, in fact, the loss of the Marquis of Lidian Helm cannot be said to be too great, but this guy's courage has collapsed..........

"Huh, it's a very good slash artillery formation! That's what I'm in command...... The ability of the red hair is better than that of the golden retriever. But it's a pity! The fleet is already in a horizontal formation?Okay! All guns are fired!" Marshal Fafnier, who had already arrived at the battlefield, sighed, his fleet at the moment was forming a Y-shape from the fleet of Gilfias, the fleet of Fafnier and the fleet of the Marquis of Lidian Heim were two forks above, and the fleet of Gilfias was the one point below. However, Fafnier's fleet was still at its limit, but even so, Fafnir ordered an all-out attack - and bombarded the fleet of the Marquis of Lidian Helm with no distinction between friend and foe.

"The enemy fleet appears at 11 o'clock in this fleet! 12 light-seconds!The number .......... more than 17,000!" was the voice of the bridge observation officer in the fleet of Gilfias, Kemp, and Lutz at the same time.

The rain of light fell on everyone, whether he was a coalition of nobles or the fleet to which Gilfias belonged, and the chaotic fleet of the Marquis of Dawn suffered the greatest losses. They completely lose all judgment and run away desperately, exposing their asses to Gilfias, Camp and Luz for this and none of them mind. Ostomac was running on the front line, but found that the escape route was blocked by the supply fleet behind him, and while ordering the shelling of his supply ship, he scolded the approaching Fafnir fleet: "I know the way! I know that this cruel and unkind 'dragon' will do such a thing!" Before he could continue scolding, after destroying the supply ship in front of him and opening the escape route, a light spear hit his outer shield ship, causing the thruster on the shield ship to malfunction, and the speed slowed down suddenly. Dozens of spears of light pierced through Ostomac's massive body......... Until later historians of war could not determine whether Fafnir or Gilfias's fleet had hit Ostomac, but it didn't matter who hit it, and the Marquis became a frozen fragment floating in the universe along with his flagship.

The Marquis's men scattered and fled, and this rout also brought the Gilfias fleet into it. The first to bear the brunt was the Lutz fleet, which was the first to engage the Marquis's fleet, and Lutz kept ordering: "Rectify the formation, gradually retreat and rectify the formation!"

But that effort came to naught with the chaos of the Marquis's men and the neat shelling in the distance. The Lutz fleet had to halt its advance and began to retreat in an attempt to regroup, all the while firing incessantly destroying the Marquis's defeated army that had stumbled into their array.

"Open the passage in the direction of the Germison fortress and stop the shelling in that direction. The whole fleet was once again formed in a horizontal column to bombard Gilfiais's fleet with all its might, and as for the Marquis of Waste's troops, they were allowed to escape, and at the same time ordered the departing Rundested and Stephen to block the jump passage around Chihoisa as much as possible to intercept the fleeing Marquis's ships. ”

Gilfias himself suffered minor losses of 800 high-speed ships, but the fleet of Rutz and Camp had to retreat and marshall, thus creating a salient of Gilfius's fleet and the high-speed detachment he led, so that for a period of time he was subjected to all the fire fired by Fafnier. Fortunately, the current Fafnir fleet is still far away, and the hit rate is not high, so it can be said that in fact, the entire fleet led by Gilfias did not suffer much losses.

"What is needed now is to retreat and regroup, ready for a rendezvous with the Fafnier fleet. We've finally caught them!" Gilfias's rhetoric ran through the communication channels, and the morale of the sudden attack was high again. Gilfias took the opportunity to retreat with all his strength and reorganize the fleet, and if the three fleets were reorganized, the number of existing ships should be about 24,000, and it should be able to steadily suppress the more than 17,000 ships that Fafnir now has on the battlefield. Gilfias did not dare to take any more risky tactics, after all, even now that Reinhardt had become a military dictator, the entire fleet under his control was only 70,000 warships, and Gilfias already commanded more than a third.

Fafnir accelerated his advance, taking advantage of the time it took for Gilfias to reorganize his fleet, to a distance of about two million kilometers, and because of the constant firing, he succeeded in keeping Gilfias from finishing his regrouping plan, twelve hours before Fafnir joined the battle.

On the other side, a small part of the defeated Marquis army had fled back to the fortress, most of them had escaped from the system by jump, and some had surrendered to the Favenir fleet. According to faster-than-light communications, most of the ships that escaped the system were captured by the fleets of Rundstead and Stephen.

"Now, it's time to go toe-to-toe with the red-haired kid. Fafnir said this, and at the same time ordered the whole fleet to reorganize its formation, form a thick horizontal formation, and slowly press on the Gilfias fleet while firing.

In the distance, the Gilfias fleet was finally reorganized, this time because of the order of retreat, the camp fleet became the left flank salient, while the Gilfias fleet remained in the center, the Lutz fleet became the right flank dragging behind, and the three fleets were again formed into a diagonal formation.

"I like to play slash formations as much as I do......... I'm starting to appreciate you a little, red-haired boy. Fafnir said as he looked at the Gilfias fleet on the other side.

"Order the fleet to form a V-formation and face the camp fleet in the enemy salient. Wait for the order of the flagship and then fire a salvo!Rear Admiral Darker!Your destroyer is out of the V-formation, wait for the order to start the assault! The mine-strike carrier is ready to go!"

The wings of Fafnier's fleet did not begin to extend like a typical V-shape. Instead, it began to shrink, pouring all its firepower into the camp fleet at the head.

"Darke! Assault the Gilfias fleet at high speed! I don't want your casualty figures! I want you to delay time!"

Subsequently, under the order, the mine-strike carriers, under the cover of the two-wing warships, began to send mine-strike boats, and the target of the mine-strike boats was the camp fleet, which had already begun to send the kingure fighters.

Camp is an ace pilot with a heroic personality. Under his command, the fighting power of Vuerguray was very strong, and the movement of the fleet was quite bold. However, he had to endure the firepower of the warships from the left and right, and in the front was the flagship battleship detachment under the command of Favenier himself, which firmly blocked the firepower of the camp fleet.

Under the cover of the mother ship and battleships, the destroyer detachment opened the passage and broke into the camp fleet.

Rear Admiral Dark's three thousand destroyers, desperate, began to storm the head of the Gilfias fleet, suffering heavy losses under the accurate artillery fire of the Gilfias fleet.

"Assault!assault!Whoever runs slower will be executed by the flagship!" Dark roared as he drove his men to the fire net under Gilfi Esb. After paying heavy casualties, it finally broke through to the vanguard of the Gilfias fleet. More than 2,000 destroyers opened fire with all their might, knocking out the vanguard of Gilfias into a hollow.

At the moment of the fierce battle of Dalke, Fafnier's thunderbolt assault reaped great results. The salvo of the linear guns on the lightning strike boats that broke through at close range turned Kamp's Wurgure mothership and their fighters into a cosmic fireball together, and the camp fleet finally lost its support in the flanking attack of the Faffnier fleet and began to rout. With the ships of the Fafnier's fleet on both the left and right flanks, the defeated forces of the camp fleet had to begin to rout to the rear, and the rout dispersed the vanguard of Gilfias, which had already begun to disorganize, but Gilfias decisively ordered the Central Fleet to shoot and disperse the defeated forces of the camp fleet, forcing them to disperse from the line of fire from both sides, thus stabilizing the formation of the Rutz fleet in the center and rear.

"Almost, tell Darke to hurry up and run. We're going to start evacuating too. After all, we didn't come to retreat with the troops on both flanks of the red-haired .......... desperately. After the defeat of this fleet, the two wings withdrew behind us and then laid out a defensive formation to meet our retreat. Alright, let's start rolling the retreat. Fafnir shook his hand and gave the order to retreat.

Gilfias's camp fleet was heavily damaged, 7,000 ships were destroyed, even Kamp's flagship Yuzhheim was damaged, and Gilfias's vanguard suffered considerable losses. But they taught Darch a hard lesson - only one and a half thousand of the three thousand destroyers escaped.

Four hours later, the two sides disengaged. Although Gilfias repeatedly tried to break through and hold off the Fafnir fleet, he was given the command to concentrate on Fafnier's timely and accurate fire. Finally, at the beginning of the battle, the Gilfias fleet, which had 30,000 warships, after suffering losses of 12,000 ships, routed the fleet of up to 50,000 Marquis of Lidian Heim, "killed" the Marquis of Lidian Heim, and occupied the Chihoissa system. But the system was soon abandoned - the reconnaissance ship reported a large fleet assembling in the adjacent system.

"Count Favenir's fleet............ This vulture has eaten the fleet of the Marquis of Dawn, which we have defeated. Although we destroyed an estimated 5,000 of his ships during the battle, he managed to escape. It is now assumed that his fleet has more than sixty thousand ships.......... that our border campaign has failed, and it is time to return to Lord Reinhardt. The young red-haired commander so decided, and the two deputy commanders agreed with him.

In August, the Gilfias fleet quickly withdrew from the Chihoissa system and began to retreat directly in the direction of Odin, turning halfway to begin to join Reinhardt's main fleet.........
