At this time, the war between the Kabat Empire and the oaks Empire has entered a white hot.
After winning vitte, Hamid's confidence increased greatly, and soon drew up the strategic plan of lassea and Leo.
Among the 1.2 million fleets stationed in Vitter, 200000 are left to defend the Starway in the direction of La Saiya, while the remaining 1 million warships are directly from Vitter to attack Leo!
At the same time, there are also 2 million Kabat Empire troops who are already facing Leo and stationed in Sicily, with a total offensive force of 3 million.
According to the calculation, the war will start in two years. After all, Sicily is six light years away from Leo, and it will take two years to walk the star road.
The distance between vitte and Leo is about 3 light years. In order to match the attack time, they will start in one year.
On the other hand, the Empire stationed three Guard Corps and one border Corps in Leo, with a total force of 1.6 million!
Originally, these 1.6 million warships had no problem defending Sicily's 2 million warships in Starway with the help of favorable conditions.
But now Vitter is occupied, so in order to deal with the threat from Vitter, Leo's Garrison has to arrange half of the warships at the entrance and exit of Vitter's path, which leads to the defense line of star path in Sicily, leaving only 800000 warships.
The most important thing is that the entrance distance between the two paths is at least 2au, which makes it impossible for the defenders on both sides to support each other quickly.
As for the return of the fourth legion, they are on their way to Horton and are expected to arrive in three years.
Horton is about 12 light-years away from Witt. It is a node that the Kabat army can't get around when attacking the capital circle of oaks. Unless it takes a long time to walk around the periphery of the territory of the oaks Empire, it may be intercepted by another border Corps.
It was with this in mind that Issa went straight to Horton to wait.
Two years later, when the time came to 64 years of the federal calendar, the battle of the REO finally started!
The first to appear in Leo through Starway is the cabat imperial fleet from Vette.
According to the strategy of Victor, the first one is to make a quick breakthrough with the trapped fleet and tear a hole in the defensive array. The subsequent fleet will tear up the whole defensive line based on this hole.
If it goes well, it should be like this, but the Empire of oaks is not stupid. They have been in the process of Victor's fall before. Naturally, they know that the Empire of Kabat has such a fleet of nearly 10000 warships!
Therefore, for this fleet, Leo's defenders also attached great importance to it. On the front line of defense, 200000 fleets immediately began to gather fire.
Under a wave of attack, it caused the loss of more than 500 warships to the trapped fleet.
For this, the Kabat Empire had been prepared for a long time. Even in Hamid's plan, the trapped fleet was used as bait and was ready to be buried here.
As long as it can attract the defenders to gather fire for 10 minutes, the subsequent fleet will be able to gain a firm foothold at the exit of Starway, and then take the opponent directly by the difference of strength.
You know, this is not the narrow Starway between Witt and cecia. Ten minutes is enough for 200000 warships to pass through the Starway.
Although there are 800000 defenders on the Starway defense line, there are not so many who can attack at the same time. 300000 at most.
If the 200000 warships of Kabat empire can pass through the path of stars and gain a firm foothold, the 800000 garrison will be basically out of business, because the consumption speed of warships bombarded by both sides is not as fast as that of the subsequent fleets of Kabat empire.
So this time Hamid let the trap fleet as bait to attract fire.
In Hamid's strategic thinking, as long as the garrison of Leo is completely annihilated, the combat power of the oaks empire on the border between the two sides is only 1.8 million of that of lassea, while that of the cabat empire is more than 5 million.
If the remaining 8000 trapped fleets can help the Kabat Empire gain such an advantage, why not give up?
Besides Hamid, I remember Lin Fan said that as long as he won the oaks Empire, he would give more rewards.
As a result, Leo's defenders are in a difficult choice.
1. Spare no effort to gather fire to annihilate this trapped fleet, but the result is to let the other party's subsequent fleet build a bridgehead.
2. According to the normal way of playing, we don't specially set fire to trap the fleet, but the result is likely to be that, like Victor, he will be directly thrust into the array and eventually lead to a total collapse.
Finally, Leo's defensive commander gritted his teeth and made a decision.
In order to win the final victory of the oaks Empire, no matter what the cost, this trapped fleet must be destroyed here, even at the cost of the fall of Leo!
It is his general policy to destroy the trapped fleet first, and then consume the warships of Kabat Empire to the greatest extent before his own side is completely destroyed.
Soon, all the fleets on the defense line received orders and began to gather fire towards the trapped fleet, completely ignoring the follow-up fleet of Kabat empire.Ten minutes after the start, the trapped fleet lost more than 7000 warships, and the loss of the oaks empire was huge.
In the process of assault, the trapped fleet killed at least 20000 warships. In addition, in the past 10 minutes, nearly 200000 warships sailing out of Starway did not watch the play on the side, but joined the attack on the defensive forces as soon as they came out, killing at least 50000 warships.
At this time, as the garrison commander of Leo expected, although the trapped fleet was crippled, the other side succeeded in building a bridgehead, where nearly 200000 warships had been deployed.
The next moment, the real meat grinder started. The defences on the defense line no longer concentrated fire on the remaining hundreds of warships, but began to cover and shoot towards the exit area of Starway. Naturally, the cabat imperial fleet, which had already established its bridgehead, also fought back with all its strength.
On the battlefield, thousands of warships of both sides are blasted every minute. When one warship is blasted, the other warship behind it will immediately come forward to fill the position, and the two sides directly fall into a thorough war of attrition.
The difference is that at the beginning of this war of attrition, the Kabat Empire had 1 million warships, while the oaks Empire had only 700000 warships.
Just as the garrison commander of Leo was considering whether to send 300000 warships from Sicily to support him, another Sicilian army of Kabat Empire came to Leo through the way of stars.
The commander of the Leo garrison knows that there are more than 2 million cabat warships in Sicily.
Although I don't know if all of them are here this time, obviously, at this time, we can't send any more defenders to support the way of star in the direction of Witt.
