Chapter 1313: The Decisive Battle Ahead of Time
It didn't take much time for a squadron-sized fleet to enter the cross-border channel.
"Report, the other reconnaissance fleet has entered the channel, but according to their report, the cross-border channel opened by the pagans seems to be different from the one we use here!"
"How is it different?"
“The view is different!”
"What's the meaning?"
Shellis was stunned for a moment, a little confused.
The cross-border passage is pitch black. Where is the scenery? Do you think you are here for sightseeing?
"Commander, according to the report from the squadron that entered the channel, there are colorful lights on the inner wall of this cross-border channel."
"Colorful streamers, are you sure those guys aren't hallucinating?"
"Sure, they have sent back the footage they captured."
As he spoke, the deputy controlled his terminal and displayed the image.
After seeing the video, Shellis was stunned.
This is not a cross-border channel at all, what on earth is it?
"Commander, the target channel has disappeared. It seems that the other party has closed the channel!"
Just as Sheris was staring at the image in fascination, a soldier in the bridge crew shouted.
“Damn it!”
"Those pagans must be monitoring us, otherwise they wouldn't have closed the passage immediately after our fleet entered!"
Sherrice slammed the armrest of the podium and said hatefully.
"Commander, what should we do?"
"Order the fleet to turn around and retreat outside the shipping lane before making further plans!"
"But the commander-in-chief."
"No buts. If we continue to move forward, even if we can break out of this channel, I'm afraid there won't be much of us left!"
"Yes, Commander!"
In fact, Shellis was not willing to go back, but there was really no other way.
The losses are too great, and the other party is watching you all the time, not giving you any chance to rest.
The past 20 years have been fine, but what if it continues to be like this for the next 50, 100, or even 200 years?
Even the empire's well-trained soldiers couldn't withstand it.
If there aren't enough troops and people are extremely exhausted mentally, how can we fight this war?
Therefore, the most correct option is to exit along the waterway first.
But would Lin Fan let him escape so easily?
Obviously not!
——
Alliance Fleet.
Virtual war room.
"Everyone, according to the latest intelligence, the fleet of the Dazaros Empire has begun to retreat. According to the analysis of the staff team, there is a 90% chance that they want to retreat and rest before making any plans because of the heavy losses."
“What do you think about this situation?”
After introducing the latest situation, Lin Fan looked around at everyone and asked.
"Marshal, since they want to retreat, let them retreat. We can just redeploy the Chaos Ray Carrier for Meridian Valley 155-178, right?"
"In this way, even if they have rested, they will have to start from scratch and break into the Black Cavity Worlds one by one!"
The one who spoke was the commander of the fleet of the Gem Empire.
This idea was shared by most people here, and everyone nodded.
However, for Lin Fan, this idea, although not bad, is definitely not good either. It can only be said to be mediocre.
"Yes, I am indeed planning to redeploy Meridian Valley 155-178, but the details are completely opposite to what you said."
"What does the Marshal mean?"
The other party's cross-border time is eight months, while ours is three months.
"Then send the fleet to Meridian Valley 156 immediately. Before the enemy arrives, complete the deployment of the Chaos Ray Carrier and continue to Meridian Valley 157, and so on!"
hiss.
Upon hearing this, all the fleet commanders of various civilizations took a deep breath.
This is a bit cruel. The enemy is not even given a chance to retreat.
However, Lin Fan had not yet finished speaking.
"At the same time, the main fleet of the Alliance will follow me and head directly to Meridian Valley 178. There, we will destroy the expeditionary force of the Dazaros Empire in one fell swoop!"
What, this is the decisive battle?
Suddenly, most people were confused.
After all, in their opinion, since this ambush tactic is effective, they should continue to use it.
Why is the decisive battle coming?
The enemy still has a lot of troops. If we fight now, even if we can win, I'm afraid the alliance will suffer heavy losses, right?
"Quiet!"
Just as everyone below was whispering, Lin Fan shouted and everything instantly quieted down.
Today, Lin Fan's prestige in the alliance fleet has definitely reached its peak.
"The commander of the Dazaros Empire is a very cautious person. He took a rest at least ten years earlier than I expected, and the retreat was at least thirty years earlier than I expected."
"This means that once he exits the Ziwu Valley channel, he will not come back unless he is absolutely sure."
"So, we must take advantage of our absolute advantage and fight a war of annihilation!"
"And this advantage refers to the mental state of the soldiers of the Dazaros Empire!"
"They haven't had any rest for more than 20 years. And it's not just that they haven't had any rest. Our ambush and harassment tactics have kept them on edge all the time."
"If they want to withdraw from the Meridian Valley Channel, they will have to endure this for another twenty years. This is why I have to get ahead of them and redeploy the Black Cavity Ray Carrier on their retreat route."
"Not only will we deploy them this time, but we will also deploy them in large numbers. Each Black Cavity Realm will deploy 3-5 ships to continue to destroy the spirits of their soldiers to the greatest extent possible."
"Fifty years."
"We finally reached Ziwu Valley 178 and were about to escape, but we blocked them at the entrance."
"It's like hope turning into despair in an instant, which will have a devastating effect on their already exhausted spirits."
"And this is our best chance!"
"In Ziwu Valley 178, completely defeat them!!!"
Slowly, Lin Fan explained his purpose in detail.
Below, the fleet commanders of various civilizations all stared with their eyes wide open.
Compared to ordinary tactics, Lin Fan is playing psychological tactics.
Torturing and destroying the opponent's spirit repeatedly for fifty years, and finally when the opponent finally sees hope, instantly turning this hope into despair, giving him a fatal blow to the spirit.
After suffering such a blow, it is still unknown whether the fleet of the Empire of Dazar'alor can display half of its combat power.
Plus the absolute advantage of the defense battle at the entrance of the passage.
This is indeed a great opportunity to completely annihilate the opponent.
"Once you understand, take action immediately!"
"Yes, Marshal!"
