Chapter 151
Fafnir was now concentrating the fleet's firepower on Reinhardt's left flank, which was Aichnaha's fleet.
"Young, shrink your formation, defend, concentrate your fire on the opponent's left flank as much as possible!" was the order that Fafnier conveyed to Jung Heinrich Young.
At the same time, Fafnir issued an order to the Dalke fleet, which had been hiding between Young and him: "Dalke, aim at the left flank of the other side and break through for me!
"Boom, !!! Assault! Assault!" Dark quickly broke away from formation with his four thousand high-speed destroyers, and charged headlong towards Azinaha's right flank.
Admiral Azinaha, who is known as "I don't speak", still gives orders with a flick of his fingers. He flicked his fingers, and the chief of staff gave the order: "The right flank is partially turned! The whole fleet shrinks to defend!"
On the other side, Reinhardt's own 10,000 ships struggled to fire on Young's fleet, which he could not attack at Fafnier's home. And Young's fleet never approached close range, but engaged in artillery warfare at medium distances, so even if it was flanked by Reinhardt and Azinaha, there was no sign of collapse for a while.
Dalk's assault succeeded in inducing the Azinaha fleet to partially turn, and at this moment, "the whole army advances!
Fafnir's order rushed through the fleet's communication channel, and the rear main thruster of the huge flagship "Loki" emitted a powerful blue light, pushing the battleship of more than a thousand meters to speed up, and at the same time, the beam cannon and railgun in the bow of the ship opened fire at the same time, taking the action of the flagship as an opportunity, the entire Ffnier fleet of 12,000 ships launched a magnificent three-shot salvo!
In just an instant, the Azinaha fleet erupted in countless spherical clusters of light. The 10,000 warships of Azinaha's fleet seemed to be shrouded in dark clouds, and countless points of light were extinguished in an instant, and this point of light would never shine again. "Reinhardt still likes to divide his troops, but in fact he will be in trouble if he is in a horizontal formation. And if he had approached at high speed in the first place instead of waiting for my attack, he would have already crushed Jung's fleet......" Fafnir said happily as he looked at the Azinaha fleet that had fallen into the abyss in front of him.
Darch also succeeded in assaulting Azinaha's array with this frantic firepower, but there was not much more for him to do - Azinaha's fleet had begun to rout, and Admiral Silent had to retreat and regroup, losing as many as 3,000 ships in the single blow he had just hit, and with the losses in the front firing, he was approaching the 4,000 mark. The worst thing was that his formation had fallen apart and had to be reorganized.
Darke didn't get much benefit, Azinaha's backward command ability was quite good, and he could organize fire to intercept the assaulting Darke while constantly retreating. It was at this time that Jan and Fafnier also shifted their fire to the Reinhardt fleet on the other flank.
Now Jung Heinrich Young still had about 4,500 warships, and Favnier's fleet was unscathed, and the two men together had 16,500 ships, and now Fafnier commanded these 16,500 ships to weigh on the 10,000 ships of Reinhardt's fleet.
Reinhardt had to retreat to avoid the gunfire, and at the same time asked the Bidianfelt fleet to speed up and prepare for a flank assault on Young's fleet, but this meant that Bidianfelt had to make a circle and strike through the gap exposed by Azinaha's retreat.
Once again, Darch broke away from the main battle, and he pursued the defeated Ezinaha fleet from Young's flank, exposing Young's flank, but it would take several hours for Bidenfeldt to take advantage of this.
At this time, Reinhardt's fleet had begun to retreat and shrink under the double fire of the Fafnir and Young fleets that spread out in a half-moon shape ahead.
"Yang! start backing away, watching your flanks. Always ready to defend!"
But the Fafnier fleet instead began to approach the Reinhardt fleet, preparing to launch a lightning strike at close range.
At 8 p.m. Standard Time, the battle had already taken a heavy toll on both sides. The reorganization of the Azinaha fleet was delayed, not only due to Darke's non-stop assaults, but also due to the fatigue of the soldiers of the Azinaha's fleet from their prolonged state of engagement, which slowed their movements and judgment of orders.
The same is true of the Reinhardt fleet on the front, the soldiers are exhausted, and the Fafnier fleet and the Young fleet are only slightly better than the Reinhardt fleet, and their soldiers are equally tired. But due to numerical superiority, they pressed the Reinhardt fleet for the attack.
"Half of the mine-striking boats are attacking!" Fafnir gave the order with great energy, and the energetic pilots of the mine-striking boats were already impatient. The mine-striking boats approached Reinhardt's fleet at high speed under the cover of the group of battleships in front of them, "concentrating their fire on the passage between the enemy's warships!" This was Reinhardt's order.
The storm of artillery fire swept through the passage between the battleship groups in front of Fafnir, and a large number of mine-striking boats immediately turned into cosmic garbage, but there were still many mine-striking boats that managed to break through the artillery interception and successfully approached the Reinhardt fleet and fired railguns.
It was also at this time that the Bidian Felter movement was in place, and the flank assault on Yang's fleet began.
Yang's fleet was on a contractive defense, but the more than 4,000 battleships, still exhausted, were completely unable to stop Bidianfeldt's 5,000 high-speed battleships, and the sides were easily torn apart.
"The other half of the mine-strike boats are on fast action, and they are on standby below and above the Yang fleet! The whole fleet is centered on the flagship, ready to rotate clockwise!" Fafnier looked at the Reinhardt fleet in front of him, which had suffered heavy losses, and turned his head and ordered.
The fleet of Bidian Felter quickly routed the fleet of Yang, and the black high-speed battleships swept in like a torrent.
But immediately they were greeted with a volley of railguns fired from above and below, "Leave him alone, forward, forward!" Bidenfeldt shouted and ordered his men to force their way forward.
The fire of the Faffnier's fleet once again blocked the path of the Black Lancers, finally forcing Bidenfeldt to order the fleet to turn closer to the Reinhardt fleet. "Almost, order Young to gather the fleet, and so is Darke! ”
The two fleets slowly disengaged, and it was already the morning of June 13. After a full 48 hours of fighting, both sides confirmed their inability to annihilate the other and disengaged.
Reinhardt's 25,000 ships lost as many as 10,000, Azinaha 6,000, Reinhardt himself about 3,000, and Bithenfeldt less than 1,000, with about 700,000 casualties.
The 22,000 warships of the Favnier fleet also lost about 5,000 ships, and the 6,000 warships of the Yang fleet lost more than 4,000 ships. About 300,000 were killed or wounded.
After the Second Battle of the Marindorff System, Reinhardt's army clearly lost the strength and courage to quell the Empire's greatest divisive force. And the Fafnir army did not have the strength to destroy Emperor Reinhardt in one fell swoop, after all, the other side occupied a large number of military industrial factories in the north - the military industry of the old empire was dominated by the north, especially the Valhalla system.
The small and medium-sized forces in the heart of the empire are also fighting, and in the year 489 of the imperial calendar alone, the empire lost 600 million people, and almost all of these losses came from the melee between the small and medium-sized forces, with a large number of civilian deaths......
"It's time to negotiate......" is the view shared by both Reinhardt and Fafnier......
