The worst-case scenario that Torreya talks about is naturally...
Just like the Seventh Fleet Group, people directly use the reverse crossing tactic to destroy the cross-border device, causing most of the Seventh Fleet Group's troops to be directly destroyed.
Now, after several simulations, he finally breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the opponent could not completely defeat a hundred legions in one day and capture the cross-border device.
As long as it can be delayed for one day, all four armies can safely pass through the cross-border passage.
So...
Even if the hundred legions left behind by the four armies were surrounded and annihilated, the losses to the entire Norea Empire army would not be too great.
After all, there are only 400 legions in total, but the entire army has more than 7,000 legions.
However...
Wouldn't Lin Fan know this before formulating this strategy?
Annihilating one hundred legions with four hundred legions cannot be accomplished in just a few hours!
No, Lin Fan knew it and was very clear about it.
After all, the last time Lin Yu led a hundred federal legions to defeat the ten legions left behind by the Seventh Legion, it took almost two hours.
Not to mention there are a hundred legions this time.
However, even after knowing this, he still formulated this battle plan. The reason is...
In Lin Fan's hand, he still holds a trump card!
------
The Norea Empire's cross-border device is more advanced than the Federation's.
This advancement is not only reflected in the speed, but also in the size of the passage. The number of legions that can pass through every day is close to the size of a thousand legions.
In other words, on average, more than 40 legions can enter or exit the channel every hour.
Of course, this is for the battleships of the Norea Empire.
The Federation battleship is different. Since the previous generation of battleship was designed by Jiang Xinlan, many new concepts that even the Norea Empire had not been introduced have been introduced, so that the Federation battleship is now smaller with each generation.
It is precisely because of this that the Federation will be more efficient when passing through Norea's passage.
After all, the smaller the warships are, the more fleets can enter at the same time, which can reach an efficiency of about 80 legions per hour.
Therefore, within five hours, the 400 legions of the Federation had arrived and formed an encirclement and annihilation campaign against the 100 legions left behind by the Norea Empire.
But even so, it will still take a lot of time to annihilate them all.
According to simulation estimates, this time will be approximately between 32-35 hours.
It is almost impossible to win quickly unless the opponent surrenders.
However, it is a fantasy to want the Sweeper fleet to surrender. After all, the other party has been eroded by the black cavity consciousness...
Therefore, Lin Fan never considered this possibility from the beginning.
"Marshal, the other three routes have reported and all fleets are here!"
"Where's the Chaos Ray Device?"
"Already in place, ready to launch at any time!"
"Coordinate the other three routes, synchronize the attack time, start irradiation in one minute, and order the fleet on the ray to evade immediately!"
"clear!"
Since it is impossible to quickly break through the opponent's defense line to destroy the cross-border device, then just attack directly.
Use the Chaos Ray, a strategic super weapon that shined brilliantly in the last war, to directly end all of this.
It doesn't matter how many battleships you have blocking the way.
As for why it was not used before, the reason is very simple.
It's all wrong if your own fleet hasn't arrived yet. If you use it in advance, then when you exile the opponent's fleet, wouldn't you also exile your own fleet?
Therefore, we must wait until all four hundred legions have arrived before we can use this weapon to deliver a decisive blow.
"Target locked!"
"The fleet evasion rate on the ray is 87%...95%...100%, all fleets have been evaded!"
"Ten seconds before the chaos ray hits!"
"Nine!"
"eight!"
....
"zero!"
"Start irradiation!"
"Yes, the irradiation begins!"
As the special warship hit the chaos ray device, there was a slight tremor, and an invisible and colorless energy was released. Wherever it passed, the space became blurred, as if it had a blurring effect.
The next moment, this ray had penetrated the entire defense line of the Norea fleet and swallowed up the cross-border device.
After a while, everything that was swallowed was torn apart repeatedly until it turned into nothingness, with nothing left.
At the same time, the unfolding cross-border passage suddenly began to collapse.
All the warships inside, without exception, followed the collapsed passage and fell into the black cavity gap between the two black cavity walls, with no possibility of escaping.
"Report, General Lin Yu has sent news that target No. 3 has been successfully destroyed!"
"Report, there will be news from Wang Haihai that No. 2 has been successfully destroyed!"
"Report, Commander Montero has sent word that target No. 4 has been successfully destroyed!"
"Report, target No. 1 has been confirmed destroyed!"
For a moment, a series of reports sounded in the command center.
Obviously, all four armies were successful and the first operation was successfully completed.
"Calculate the opponent's losses!"
"Yes, Marshal. According to preliminary statistics, the Norea Empire's fleet lost a total of about 2,750 legions because of our destruction of the cross-border passage. The error should not exceed 100 legions."
"Well, it's in line with expectations. Coupled with the 400 legions that are about to be surrounded and annihilated, this wave has killed nearly half of them!"
Lin Fan nodded and said.
2,750 legions were exiled, 400 legions were surrounded and annihilated, and 3,150 legions were wiped out in one fell swoop.
Didn’t he just kill nearly half of them?
However, the next step is the real difficulty, which Montero was worried about before.
After all, the army has all left Kosa, in other words...
Now there is no defense on the road ahead of the Norea Empire. If they are willing, they can even go all the way directly into the territory of the Azure Dragon Alliance without encountering any obstruction.
As the federation's cross-border device was not as advanced as the opponent's, even if it chased all the way, it could not catch up and could only watch the opponent throw away itself.
Therefore, how Torrea will act next will truly determine the outcome of this battle.
Should he stay and continue fighting against the Alliance's 1,600 legions, or should he simply ignore these Alliance fleets and head straight into Alliance territory?
------
At the same time.
Norea Empire, mobile imperial capital.
The cross-border passage of the army of thoughts was destroyed at the same time, and this news was also reported to Torrea.
"Have our losses... been calculated?"
"Your Majesty, when the incident happened, we still had 2,798 legions in the passage..."
"2798 legions, 2798 legions!!!"
At this moment, Torrea suddenly remembered that more than a hundred years ago, when he heard about Mohan's defeat, he cursed him for falling into such a trap...
But thinking about it now, if Mohan is a fool for falling into such a trap, then if he falls into the same trap for the second time...
