Synopsis

Reinhard von Lohengramm is displeased by Karl Gustav Kempff's battle progress report and decides to dispatch the fleets under Wolfgang Mittermeyer and Oskar von Reuenthal as reinforcements. He thinks that what Kempff should have done was to smash Geiersburg Fortress against Iserlohn Fortress and destroy both fortresses right from the start. Incidentally, Yang Wen-li, who is en route back to Iserlohn Fortress with a reinforcement fleet, has the same opinion as well. In the Iserlohn Corridor, Imperial scout ships detect Yang's reinforcement fleet. Kempff plans to lure the Iserlohn Garrison Fleet out of the fortress by pretending to retreat, then strike and seal it within the fortress, which will free up his forces to attack the reinforcements. Julian Mintz sees through his plan. Willibald Joachim von Merkatz, leading the Iserlohn Garrison Fleet, pretends to fall into the trap, thus the Imperial fleet is attacked from behind when it engages Yang's fleet. Taking significant casualties from the pincer attack, the Imperial fleet is on the verge of defeat when Kempff finally decides to smash Geiersburg into Iserlohn.
