Federal calendar year 1853.
The four armies separated from the Norea Empire are all in place, and they are located in Tolan, Liben, Weikang and Tucker, the four black areas bordering the Kosa area.
The Mobile Imperial Palace where Torrea was located, as well as the main army, also arrived at the Tila Realm, which is connected to the Kosha Realm.
"Your Majesty, all five armies are in position!"
"Then let's get started!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
As Torrea's order was issued, the five armies also activated their cross-border devices.
One fleet after another, they continued to pour into the channel.
And at the same time.
Canglong Alliance, frontline command center.
"Marshal, we have detected that five cross-border passages have been opened in the Kousha boundary!"
"Where's the location?"
"In line with expectations!"
"Very well, let all fleets set off as planned, don't forget to disguise yourself!"
"clear!"
—
Federal calendar year 1854.
A year ago, Norea's army set off from five different black communities at the same time, almost at the same time.
Arrived at Kosha Realm.
Among them, Tolan's road is the fifth fleet cluster.
"Commander, the frontline fleet has arrived. According to the results of our long-range scanning, the opponent's defense line should be arranged at about one standard black cavity unit at the entrance of the passage, numbering about 300 legions."
"According to the previous intelligence from the Seventh Fleet Group, the performance of the opponent's warships is much behind ours. Order the frontline fleet to break through the heretics' defense line as quickly as possible!"
"Yes, Commander!"
Such orders were issued almost simultaneously at the five passageways.
However.
Soon the news came back from the front line, which made all the commanders collectively confused.
enemy
Doesn't exist!
The so-called defense line was completely made up of false targets, and not a single pagan warship was found!
Soon, this information was passed to Torrea.
"This is impossible!"
"Not a single pagan warship?"
"Even if it is a false target, if you want to deploy such a large number of false targets, you still need a large fleet to complete it, right?"
"How is it possible that there isn't even a single battleship?"
When Torrea saw the information coming, his first reaction was not to believe it.
However, he soon remembered something, and his expression suddenly changed.
"Could it be those abominable pagans?"
"How many fleets have been arranged by the other four armies to stay behind?"
Torrea stood up and asked directly to the minister below.
"In order to prevent the other party from using the tactics used against the Seventh Fleet Group again, this time each army left a hundred legions behind!"
"Therefore, even if the pagans bring out a hundred or even two hundred legions to conduct a reverse shuttle attack, they will not be able to capture the cross-border device in a short period of time."
said the minister.
They discussed this issue before the war started.
After all, the opponent had used this method before to deceive the Seventh Fleet Group. How could they not be on guard
According to their previous detections, the pagans only have about 1,600 legions, and they have to divide their troops to guard five passages.
In this way, the number of troops that can be allocated to each passage entrance is only 300 heads.
Therefore, even if we make a bold guess, it is impossible for the pagans to use 200 legions on each route to carry out the tactic of reversely crossing the cross-border passage, and it is impossible to capture the cross-border device in a short time.
Not to mention the imperial army exiled in the cross-border passage.
Moreover, it is impossible to bring out 200 legions to do this work, right
After all, they only have about 300 legions at each defense line. If they have to send out another 200 legions, do they still need to defend the line
It can be said that this logic is correct, and the number of remaining fleets is sufficient.
But
Lin Fan's answer was, you guessed it, I really don't want this line of defense anymore!
At this moment, Torrea also somewhat guessed Lin Fan's intention.
"Let the other four armies prepare for battle immediately!"
"If my guess is correct, this heretic has not divided his troops into five parts, nor has he planned to deploy a defensive line to fight us to the death. Instead, he plans to"
"Concentrate our forces, divide them into four parts, and then attack our rear with the whole army!"
"And the strength of each leg should reach 400 legions!"
hiss.
Hearing this, all the ministers took a deep breath.
Is this pagan really going to do this
When you think that each opponent's defense line only has 300 legions, it is impossible to send too many troops to carry out reverse crossing tactics.
But people tell you directly, not only do I want to travel in the opposite direction, I don't even want a defensive line.
The 1,600 legions are divided into four routes, each with up to 400 legions.
With such a strength, the 100 legions left behind by the four routes were simply not enough.
The only thing I'm not afraid of is probably the road with 3,000 legions and where Torrea is, right
Only 1,000 legions were sent to attack the Kousha Realm, and now there are a full 2,000 legions left.
Therefore, Torrea concluded that when the opponent performs reverse traversal tactics, they will not come to their own side, but will attack the other four sides separately.
—
Just like Torrea's guess.
Lin Fan indeed divided the fleet into four groups, each consisting of 150 federal legions and 250 alliance legions, for a total of 400 legions.
At this moment, these legions have arrived at their respective targets, the Black Cavern World, and have launched an offensive.
Of course, at the beginning, the offensive did not go smoothly and the damage was considerable.
After all, the Norea Empire has a hundred legions of defenders, and the Federation has just arrived through the passage, and its troops are pretty good.
However, this situation completely changed an hour later.
At this moment, the number of the federal fleet has surpassed that of the remaining fleets of the Norea Empire's four armies, and the offensive and defensive gradually reversed.
But even so, it is difficult to ensure that we can win the opponent within one day.
After all, there are a hundred legions, right
Not to mention that the performance of the battleships of the Norea Empire is not weak at all.
Another important point is that although the Federation conducted reverse crossings of the four passages, it ensured that 400 legions of troops were deployed in each passage.
However, these troops arrived little by little and were not all at once.
Therefore, for now, the Federation's military strength does not have that big advantage, and even if all 400 legions arrive in the later period, if you want to completely eliminate the remaining legions of the Norea Empire, I am afraid it will take a whole lot of effort. It’s time for days.
With this time, Norea's four-pronged army had already left the passage.
By that time, even destroying these cross-border devices will have no effect.
Similarly, such simulation results were also transmitted to Torell, which made him sigh in relief and feel happy at the same time.
Fortunately
The worst didn't happen!
