Who is calling the fleet?

Encirclement and defeat are two different concepts, and defeat is to disrupt the enemy's formation, so that the enemy's morale will collapse and flee on its own, with the aim of victory rather than destruction.

Encirclement, on the other hand, is to wipe out the enemy cleanly, with the ultimate goal of killing rather than victory. In order to ensure that not a single enemy escapes, it is necessary to expand the range of movement of the troops as much as possible, that is, the so-called "wide net", and only in this way can we ensure that the enemy has nowhere to escape. However, in this way, the original superior forces will be greatly dispersed, and the strength of each side will be greatly weakened for the opponent, which will give the other side an opportunity.

If you want to perfectly execute the encirclement and annihilation battle, either your troops are far more powerful than the opponent and form an absolute superiority! or your army is so high in quality that no matter how dispersed, the other side will not be able to destroy any of your troops. If neither of these is achieved, encirclement is tantamount to suicide.

The current situation is very similar to the battle of Salhu in history, when the Ming army was 100,000 and the Houjin army was 60,000.

As a result, the Ming army was crushed by Nurhachi with superior forces and excellent mobility.

Chang Wei's tactical thinking is based on Nurhachi's battle that year. As long as you are fast enough, you can use the advantage of your super warships to annihilate the enemy in front of you before the enemy can encircle you, cooperate with the army to annihilate the enemy in front of you, and then turn to the encirclement fleet on the other side. In this way, even if the third fleet reinforcement arrives, then the general trend is already gone. As long as it is done properly, Chang Wei is sure that all the Imperial troops will be left behind!"

"Sir, it has detected that the faster-than-light transition engine has been greatly disturbed for unknown reasons! The Imperial Army seems to be dropping a kind of space buoy and blocking the surrounding star field battlefield. I think it might work something like a 'motorized jump blocker!'" Matt Horner reported anxiously.

Chang Wei nodded, his expression not showing panic.

It's normal, if the enemy wants to annihilate himself, he will definitely block the star battlefield, otherwise if he starts to scatter and flee, it will be very troublesome to hunt down.

"Come and don't be rude! Pass my orders! The whole army threw optical reflection dust to confuse the enemy. At the same time, the 'Xuanyan' and the major auxiliary ships turned on the all-channel information jamming to cut off the connection between the enemy's three fleets!" After

hearing Chang Wei's order, the entire bridge of the Hyperion immediately became busy.

At the same time, after the communication signal between the Imperial troops was cut off, the generals in charge of the command of the operation, such as General Tag and Gallius Lax, all sneered, and their expressions were extremely arrogant and conceited. I sneered at this move of the Rebel Alliance Fleet, and the advantage was mine.

Especially Gallius Lacs, who came to power by patting Palpatine's sycophants, has already treated Chang Wei as a rookie garbage who doesn't know anything.

"This kind of cleverness is nothing more than self-deception. As soon as our imperial army arrives, it will be the time to destroy this group of rats! The victory of our army is beyond doubt. "

In short, the command of the Imperial Army all regarded the Rebel Alliance as a lamb to the slaughter, and they did not think that the other side had any possibility of turning the tables.

On this star battlefield that straddles a star system, even if neither side can initiate the faster-than-light jump, the battle is estimated to be over in one day.

Soon, Chang Wei issued a new order: order the combined fleet of the Rebel Alliance to quickly rush towards the First Fleet of the Empire, which was in front of him.

When the First Fleet of the Empire discovered the Rebel Alliance that was ferociously killing them, they all couldn't help but exclaim in amazement: "How can this be? The enemy is crazy?"

At the moment when the two armies discovered each other's figures, a fierce battle began

! Chang Wei sat on the command chair, took a deep breath, looked firmly at the battlefield in front of him, and shouted loudly and powerfully: "Attack! The whole army launches an artillery bombardment!"

The battleships lined up, warning lights of various colors began to flash in the cabins, and everyone was ready for the grand baptism of battle.

The "Mechanical Ark", the "Glory Queen-class" battleship, and the space nest capital "Mountain Array", these three giant ships took the initiative to ask for help, and stood at the forefront with the belief of avenging the "Moon-class cruiser". Just by looking at their size, you can feel the huge coercion and terrifying power they exude.

The rest of the warships followed, and formed an indestructible formation, like a sharp sword, bravely moving forward without stopping.

A large amount of beam rain swept through the space like a stave of death, emitting a dazzling light.

The most eye-catching thing is the shocking picture of the 2,000 Minotaur battle patrols collectively charging the Yamato cannon. As a stream of red light erupted, the opposite side turned into a sea of fire in an instant.

On the fierce battlefield, the stars shone brightly, and countless warships staggered and shuttled in the void of the universe. Chang Wei calmly commanded the entire fleet, and rushed towards the enemy with a thunderous force. The engines of countless ships emitted dazzling light, like bright stars streaking across the dark night sky.

The firepower of both sides was dense and swift, powerful and ferocious, and countless beams of light intertwined wantonly in the universe, forming a brilliant and dangerous interweaving of light and shadow.

In the mutual bombardment of the warships, the burst of energy became more and more dazzling, and the ship's shield continued to tremble and ripple under this tremendous pressure, and the whole picture was full of thrill and excitement!

Chang Wei's fleet, under the cover of the "super warships," soon approached the enemy, and their hulls emitted a deafening roar, and all kinds of kinetic energy weapons flew in all directions, like fireworks blooming in the night sky.

As the fighter formations of both sides entered the battle at the same time, the originally complicated battle situation became even more chaotic in an instant. Everywhere you look, it's a battlefield of firefights!

The Lightchaser fleet may be small in number, but it has the most advanced technological weapons and the best pilots. They were agile, swift, and courageous, and each of them was not afraid of death, inflicting astonishing blows and heavy casualties on enemy warplanes and ships.

Chang Wei's mechanical right eye kept scanning back and forth, like a bird divination, constantly capturing all kinds of battlefield information.

This was followed by the various orders he issued, allowing the fleet to quickly switch targets to concentrate fire and kill, and destroy the enemy's main battleships one by one.

Chang Wei commanded the fleet like a pack of hungry wolves, frantically biting the enemy, causing the enemy's fleet to retreat one after another, and the entire formation even tore a huge crack from the middle, almost completely collapsing

! "How is it possible! Why is this happening? Obviously we are the superior side!"

"This is impossible! I don't believe it! A mere nobody from the fringe star field! How did the noble me be defeated? Unacceptable! Ah!!

". As soon as the Yamato cannon passed, the commander of the opposing side, along with his flagship, exploded.

The entire battlefield was covered in explosions and flames, and fragments of the battleship were scattered in all directions. The universe was filled with a lot of dust and fire, but Chang Wei's fleet still did not choose to stop, because they had only one goal, and that

was to win! The first fleet of the empire was defeated so easily? All the people of the rebel alliance were full of disbelief, but soon their eyes were full of disbelief, and their morale was high! One by one, they roared and roared!

However, this is not yet the time to cheer and celebrate. The enemy still has two fleets coming to support, and Chang Wei is just using his maneuvering speed to create a slight time difference! If the other two fleets are brought together, Chang Wei still has a great chance of losing.

But fortunately, he had expected this situation for a long time. Therefore, the interference of all-channel communication information is for this moment!

Without pause, Chang Wei ordered, and the whole army quickly turned around, and immediately launched a fierce surprise attack on the Second Fleet of the Empire, which was supported by the right flank.
