Not far behind the ambush point of the Oaks Empire fleet.

A fleet of more than a hundred warships quickly sprang out from a dense pile of asteroids on its side and rear, firing a salvo directly at the Oaks Empire's fleet.

According to Lin Fan's order, all battleships with enemy aircraft carriers within the shooting angle were taken care of by roll call.

At the same time, Oaks ambushed the flagship of the fleet.

Ninth Prince Doron Oaks was sitting comfortably in the captain's seat, resting with his head propped up.

Speaking of which, Duolun can be regarded as a graduate from a prestigious school. He graduated from the First Military Academy of the Empire and ranked among the best in his grades, and was deeply loved by the emperor.

This time, I also came to the front line under the emperor's order. To put it nicely, I wanted to feel the atmosphere of war. To put it badly, I came to get gold plating.

After arriving at the Jupiter front line, the arrogant Doron felt that for his future, it was necessary to lead a victory.

That's why it's happening now.

Although the academic performance in Duolun Military Academy is quite good, after all, it has not experienced the baptism of actual combat. According to human terms, it is just talk on paper.

"Report, a large number of local warships appear behind and are attacking us?"

"What? Why are you behind us?"

But before anyone could respond, Duolun saw a fireball rising from the left side of the flagship through the observation window on the bridge.

A frigate was directly destroyed.

"Damn it, if you don't fight back quickly, what are you doing?"

As soon as Duolun's words came out, the entire bridge fell silent.

Please, now we are facing others from behind, how can we fight back?

You must know that the heavy guns on battleships are very huge and can only be fine-tuned at a small angle at most. Those that cannot turn 360 degrees and those that can turn 360 degrees are small-caliber weapons.

"Your Highness, the opponent is behind us now, and the main weapons cannot attack the opponent!"

Rex beside Dolan had no choice but to remind Dolan.

"Then move forward, then turn in an arc and bite the opponent's tail! Don't you understand such a simple truth?"

At this time, everyone in the bridge was even more speechless. All the warships were hiding behind asteroids. Does the frontline advance mean that the entire fleet will collectively hit the wall and commit suicide?

At this time Rex couldn't stand it anymore.

If the Ninth Prince continues to do this, the entire fleet will be doomed.

"All fleets immediately turned to the left and accelerated to escape the opponent's attack range!"

"yes!"

"Rex you?"

"Your Highness, if you want to punish me, you can do whatever you want with me. For now, I will command the fleet to escape the disaster and bring you safely back to the Jupiter base."

After Rex finished speaking, the proud Duolun felt bad. What do you mean Rex?

Does it mean that I don’t know how to command at all? If you don’t take action, it will be hopeless?

If Rex knew what Doron was thinking now, he would definitely agree.

At the moment, Rex no longer cared about the Ninth Prince and continued to command the entire fleet to perform steering operations.

Although Rex has made the only correct choice so far, you must know that adjusting the direction of a space battleship is not an easy task. Don't think that it is just like driving a car, just turn the steering wheel and it is done.

The battleship is a behemoth. To adjust its direction, especially when turning on the spot, it is necessary to use numerous small vector engines on both sides of the battleship to control its attitude.

Normally, if you want to turn such a large warship 90 degrees, it will take less than three to five minutes to complete.

During these three to five minutes, the entire fleet had no choice but to endure the indiscriminate bombardment of Task Force 101.

"Report, the other party is turning to the left!"

"Well, order the fleet not to relax its firepower, especially the local aircraft carriers. All aircraft carriers must be destroyed before the opponent escapes."

"clear!"

On the flagship of Fleet 101, Lin Fan nodded with satisfaction as he looked at the other party's expected actions.

Let's see if we can get rid of all the aircraft carriers before the opponent completes the turn and escapes. After all, this is related to the amount of damage on our side in the subsequent battle, which is very important!

According to identification, the opponent's fleet has a total of 208 ships, including 12 aircraft carriers. Three of them were destroyed within one minute of the attack.

At this time, Rex's heart was bleeding. These were his direct fleets, and they were being destroyed one by one without any resistance in front of him.

Only three minutes had passed since the attack, and 52 warships had been lost, among which the aircraft carriers had suffered particularly heavy losses, with 10 of the 12 aircraft carriers lost.

Huh? Wait, it seems that the losses of the aircraft carrier are particularly heavy?

Rex suddenly felt that this loss data was a bit unusual. Why was the loss of the aircraft carrier so great, exceeding 80%, and the remaining two ships were all injured?

It seems that the enemy deliberately targeted the aircraft carriers of its own fleet, but why?

"Report, the entire fleet has completed its turn!"

"Immediately move forward at maximum combat speed and quickly escape from the opponent's fire range!"

"yes!"

Although Rex discovered something unusual, unfortunately in this situation, there was no time left for him to think.

"After the warship reaches its maximum combat speed, it begins to turn left and move forward in an arc. Our warship technology is better than humans. We can completely rely on the speed and efficiency of the turn to bite the tail of their fleet."

"Yes, Commander."

"Also, commander tactician, please calculate immediately how long it will take to leave the opponent's fire range, and what is the estimated battle damage?"

"Yes... report to the commander, according to calculations we can reach the maximum combat speed in about 5 minutes, and then escape the opponent's fire range in about 10 minutes, but the loss..."

"explain!"

"Yes, the loss will be as high as 50% of the battleship!"

"hiss..."

Rex took a breath, this loss was really too great, this time he was really tricked by the Ninth Prince.

Only by killing the human fleet can we get a lighter punishment after we return, right?

As for the human fleet, if I bite your tail, even if there are only 100 warships, I can kill you.

"How many aircraft carriers does the other side have?"

"There is another ship, which has been seriously injured!"

Among the flagships of Task Force 101, Lin Fan was most concerned about the opponent's remaining aircraft carrier.

"Order all battleships whose rays can cover that aircraft carrier to concentrate their attacks!"

"yes!"

Three minutes later, the last aircraft carrier of the Oaks Empire's fleet was destroyed.

Five minutes later, the Oaks Empire's fleet reached its maximum speed and began to turn left and move forward in an arc.

"Report, the other party started to turn to the left, most likely trying to bypass us in the opposite direction."

"Well, it's okay. Let the fleet continue to attack. We will kill as many as we can before they get out of our fire range!"

"clear!"

"By the way, have the nuclear bombs ordered by the mecha troops been buried?"

"Everything has been buried according to the commander's order!"

After Lin Fan said this, Liang Xue also remembered a strange order given by Lin Fan before.

Let the mecha troops install earth-penetrating nuclear bombs on dozens of asteroids at one coordinate!

This weapon should have been used to attack the surface of the planet, not in the universe.

Because there is no air in the universe, the lethality of nuclear bombs will be much smaller and will not pose much of a threat to battleships, unless they are detonated very close to the battleships.

After looking at the tactical panel, Liang Xue did a little calculation, huh? The placement of the nuclear bomb is in the middle of the arc forward route of the mecha troops and the Oaks fleet?

Wait, earth-penetrating nuclear bombs? Installed on asteroids? It is expected that the fleet of the Oaks Empire will arrive at the location of these asteroids in thirty minutes? Prioritize the destruction of the opponent's aircraft carrier?

So that’s it! This step by step turned out to be Lin Fan’s plan to lead the Oaks Empire’s fleet into the abyss!
Chapter completed!
