The place Lin Fan was referring to was the Kosha Realm, which was four black realms away from the alliance and 16 black realms away from the location of Norea's army.
This is a super large black cavity world, and the others bordering it are all small black cavity worlds.
In other words, this is a dark world that cannot be avoided on the march of the Norea Empire.
Of course, it doesn't mean that it can't be circumvented, and if you don't want to go through the Kosha Realm, you have to go around at least 5 more Black Cavalry Realms from the side, which means that it will take an extra five years.
And Lin Fan also concluded that the Norea Empire would not spend more than five years.
Therefore, the Kousha Realm is the best sniper spot in Lin Fan's eyes. Otherwise, it would be difficult to deploy troops if a war were to start within the alliance's territory like last time.
After all, they have more than 7,000 legions, and they can even be divided into several groups to attack at the same time, without any fuss.
But what about the alliance
Even if the federal fleet is included, the total number will not exceed 2,000.
If we continue to disperse the garrison, there will be no way to fight.
—
Federal Calendar, 1849.
Two borders away from the Kousha realm.
Norea Empire Mobile Palace.
"Your Majesty, our cross-border scanning device has discovered traces of a large number of fleets in the Kosa Realm, numbering more than a thousand."
"Based on our comparison of energy characteristics, we are 90% sure that it is that pagan civilization!"
"If we follow the current marching efficiency, we will arrive at the Kosha Realm in 2 years and fight with it!"
A minister was reporting on the latest situation.
Emperor Torrea, on the other hand, looked at the black cavity space map opened by the minister, thoughtfully.
During this process, no one dared to speak for fear of interrupting their emperor's thoughts.
until a few minutes later
"Order the fifth, sixth, eighth and ninth fleet clusters to separate from the main force of the crusade and head to the four realms of Tolan, Libon, Weikang and Tucker respectively."
"Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
"Aren't these pagans just relying on the special position of the Kosha Realm to offset the disadvantage of military strength? If this is the case, then let them understand that in the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy and tricks have no effect. significance!"
Hearing this, all the ministers in the room also reacted.
That's right, if you want to offset the military disadvantage between the two sides, the only way the pagans can think of is...
Find a black cavity that cannot be easily bypassed by the imperial army, and then deploy all the troops here. Finally, determine the location of your passage entrance in advance, and deploy a defense line to directly press you inside and fight.
In response, what Torrea thought about was
Even if you want to play this way, then I will directly divide it into five armies, and then deploy them in the five black cavities bordering Kosa.
The last five armies opened cross-border channels at the same time and attacked at the same time!
You only have more than a thousand legions, but if you bet on one mouth, it is indeed barely enough.
But if there are five ports blocked at the same time, how can you block them? Directly divide your more than 1,000 legions into five points
Therefore, it seems that you have found a way to suppress my military advantage, but in fact, as long as the operation is reasonable, I can also do the opposite to maximize my military advantage.
"Your Majesty, I have calculated that in order to deploy the four fleet clusters to the corresponding black cavity realms, we will need 4 years to launch the offensive!"
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, the decisive battle is earlier than we expected. After all, everyone ran out on their own initiative, right?"
Treya waved his hand, but Torrea didn't care at all.
"I understand, Your Majesty, I will make arrangements right away!"
—
one year later.
Federal calendar year 1850.
Canglong Alliance, frontline command center.
At this moment, Lin Fan was looking at the information he had just received and frowned deeply.
The troops were divided.
And the direction of this division of troops
Have you discovered yourself
According to the performance of Norea's last expedition, there should be no means of cross-border detection.
But the current way of dividing the troops is obviously to make their own dumplings, and then implement multiple cross-border tactics at the same time to directly attack the weaknesses of their own troops.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain its current division of troops.
"Marshal, should we retreat and consider the long term?"
On the side, Montero, the supreme commander of the Alliance fleet, couldn't help but ask after seeing the same information.
After all, in this case, not only would the Alliance army have no advantage if they stayed here, but they would also be exploited by the Norea Empire to strangle their lifeblood and KO them with one blow.
Therefore, in Montero's view, it is better to retreat and take a long-term view.
After all, if you want to win this battle, you can still think of other ways. There is no need to risk your life here.
However, Lin Fan didn't see it that way.
"Montero, if we were to withdraw to the alliance and let you take command, how sure would you be to win this battle?"
"This... depends on the opponent's commander!"
"Let's talk separately!"
Lin Fan said with great interest.
"If the opponent's commander is very good, then I have no chance of winning. After all, the perception of hard power is too obvious!"
"But if the opponent's commander is very ordinary, then I should be at least 70% sure that I can win this battle!"
"However, in view of the opponent's current behavior of dividing troops, I think the illusion that the commander's ability is poor can almost be discarded."
At the end, even Montero couldn't help but shake his head.
"That's right. The commander on the opposite side is not a fool. On the contrary, he is very shrewd and patient. It is basically impossible to win through ordinary means!"
"Therefore, this time we still need to take a dangerous step!"
"Tell me, what will be the result if I repeat the last tactic?"
Having said this, Lin Fan's lips curved slightly.
And Montero was indeed dumbfounded.
The tactic from last time
Crossing the cross-border passage in reverse
Everyone has suffered a loss once, and this time there will definitely be a large number of troops left to deal with it, and there is no possibility of success at all.
Apart from anything else, as long as each of the five armies of the Norea Empire leaves a hundred legions to protect the cross-border device, it is impossible for the Federation to capture it within a limited time, okay
unless
unless
Could it be that Marshal Lin Fan wanted to do that
Montero suddenly thought of something and looked at Lin Fan in shock.
In fact, the possibility he just guessed was too outrageous and exaggerated.
but
If you think about it carefully, although it is a bit outrageous, it is indeed feasible, or in other words, it is the only feasible way at present.
However, there is also a huge problem here.
That is.
