“Seven frigates have been sunk, two light cruisers are heavily injured, and one medium cruiser is slightly injured.”The adjutant immediately reported the battle damage to Adams.

“Withdraw the two heavily injured light cruisers from the battle sequence. The rest of the ships concentrate their shield energy to the bow and continue moving forward!”Adams remained calm, even though he had not seen the enemy and was hit head-on, however, such a small loss was nothing to the entire combined fleet.

The combined fleet of the Audra Empire and the Vasari Legion continued to approach planet Turandot, while the main cannon of the Aurora was once again fully charged!

“Fire in unison!”Following Aurelia’s command, the 200 main cannons on the aurora emitted a dazzling brilliance. In this battle between teachers and students, Aurelia, who had the aurora, undoubtedly had the advantage.

“Boom Boom Boom Boom…”the combined fleet that was bombarded again still did not find any traces of the enemy.

“Battle Damage Report!”Adams’expression did not change. Although he had not seen the enemy twice, he had experienced countless battles in his life. It was not like he had not seen a worse situation than today.

“Eleven frigates and one light cruiser were sunk. Four light cruisers and one medium cruiser were seriously injured, and two heavy cruisers were slightly injured.”The Adjutant’s expression was rather ugly, although all the ships had gathered their shield energy to the bow, the problem was that as the fleet advanced, the distance between the two sides had undoubtedly increased. The energy weapons lost on the way had decreased, so the power was greater, this caused the combined fleet’s losses to become even more severe.

“Order the heavily injured ships to withdraw from the battle sequence. Have the scout ships returned any information yet?”Adams frowned slightly. This situation of being beaten up without being able to fight back made him feel very aggrieved.

“Not yet,”the adjutant answered dejectedly. More than a dozen exploration ships had been sent out long ago, but they had not returned any valuable information.

After two rounds of artillery fire, there was less than 2,500 light seconds left between the joint fleet and Jiang Fei’s fleet. When the main cannon of the Dawnlight finished recharging.., the exploration ships sent out by the joint fleet finally found traces of the fifth fleet.

“Sir! The exploration ship has found the enemy! The coordinates are XXX, XXX, XXX!”The adjutant shouted with excitement. They had been passively beaten up previously. If not for the old marshal’s calm and commanding look, they would have thought that they had seen a ghost!

“Boom Boom Boom…”at this moment, the flagship’s hull shook violently. Clearly, the dawn’s third round of cannon fire had arrived!

“2,300 light seconds away?”Adams did not care about the ship’s shaking. He widened his eyes and asked the adjutant. This distance was not something an ordinary cannon could hit!

“That’s right. The coordinates are very accurate!”The Adjutant confirmed. Most of the Fifth Fleet’s ships were trash. They were a random unit, so the invisibility effect was not very good. Although the dawn was advanced, it was too big, invisibility and other things had nothing to do with it, so the joint fleet’s scout ship easily locked onto their coordinates.

“How is this possible? !”Adams had joined the Army since he was young, he had fought countless wars and small battles. It could be said that he knew the capabilities of the warships of various forces like the back of his hand. However, he had never heard of a warship that could fire beyond 300 light seconds, not to mention when they were first attacked, they were at least 3,000 light seconds away from the enemy!

What kind of concept was ten times the range? This meant that if the enemy’s fleet had sufficient mobility, they could easily kite him to death without paying any price!

“Order!”! The second and third fleets left the main channel, while the ninth and twelfth fleets left the main channel to the right. After completing their escape, the four fleets immediately charged forward at full speed. They must complete the encirclement of the enemy fleets within three minutes!”Adams was indeed a veteran commander, after he learned of the enemy’s advantage, he immediately made a response.

Soon, the four fleets and the main fleet separated and surrounded the two sides. The reason why Adams was pressing so hard was that the Aurora’s firepower was too strong, three minutes meant that the main fleet would have to endure at least three cannon attacks. Adding the previous three cannon attacks, there would be about 100 battleships that would be sunk before they met the enemy!

“How can there be such a powerful spaceship?”Adams was very puzzled. If it wasn’t for the unusually large size of his combined fleet, as a veteran commander, he really wouldn’t be willing to fight against such a powerful warship, because regardless of whether he won or lost, his losses were immeasurable!

“Sister, the enemy has split up their troops. It seems like they are planning to surround us.”Lux immediately reported to Aurelia. Her ship’s radar was much better than the combined fleet, the enemy’s every move was practically transparent in her eyes.

“I wonder who is leading the troops of the Audra Empire this time. It looks like they have some ability. They actually made such a response immediately after getting our coordinates.”Aurelia nodded. The enemy’s response was very good, after blocking her retreat path, she was unable to use her range advantage to kite the enemy.

This tactic was actually very simple. She could split her forces to deal with the enemy, or she could take them down one by one. If Aurelia had a standard fleet under her command, she would choose to split her forces to fight them head-on, she would use her outstanding fleet command ability to defeat her opponent through continuous detours and division.

Unfortunately, the fleet under Aurelia’s command was a transport fleet. There were only a few light frigates and a few drone motherships. They could bully pirates, but if they were to fight against a regular army.., they were practically a treasure of experience. To put it bluntly, other than the dawn, there was no one else in the entire fleet that could fight.

Hence, the moment they split up, the 5th Fleet would become like the current combined fleet. The ships that were separated from the dawn could only be beaten passively.

“Stop the cannon fire, turn the fleet, target the enemy on the left flank! Go Up and face them!”Aurelia ordered.

The 5th Fleet that had been preparing for this for a long time changed direction and charged towards the enemy’s left flank.

“Sir, the enemy has changed direction, their target is Tesla’s left flank fleet.”The Adjutant reported.

“Order Tesla to slow down his fleet and focus his shield on the bow, be prepared to be bombarded. The right flank fleet, cancel the shield defense and supply all the energy to the engine, make sure to go behind the enemy as soon as possible!”Adams ordered.

“What About Us?”The Adjutant asked.

“Continue to maintain the current speed and pray for Tesla.”Although there was a hint of reluctance in Adams’eyes, his expression was very firm. There was a saying that ‘Mercy does not rule the army, for the sake of victory in the battle…’ At this moment, Tesla’s left-wing fleet had been sacrificed as bait.
