1518, Battle of Ennaco (1)
Admiral Kourney took a deep breath and looked through the documents in front of him, "Well...launch an orbital bombing of the planet Ennaco...and then the Trade Federation can use this as an excuse to strangle the Xuanwu in terms of supplies.
.You must know that the Xuanwu Titan battleship consumes a very huge amount of supplies and fuel every day. In this way, the Xuanwu can be forced to leave."
"Don't you think this plan is a bit of a joke?" Lynch-Hauser said.
"It's not a child's play... Because we have to launch an orbital bombardment against the heavily guarded planet Ennako, even in the plan, we may lose at least 10 capital ships. And according to the plan, we will launch the attack first, and this
At that time, the Trade Federation will put pressure on the Xuanwu, requiring the Xuanwu to take the preservation of their industry on the planet as its main combat goal. Then they will create loopholes in the defense and give us the opportunity for orbital bombing." Admiral Kourney said, "And
After the orbital bombing, the Trade Federation will send a large number of transport ships in and out of the vicinity of the planet on the pretext of rescuing civilians and industries on the planet, creating hyperspace fluctuations, making the waterways congested, and making it impossible to transport military supplies in a timely manner. At least, I think this plan
It’s feasible.”
"There are too few factors that we can control during this planning process." Lynch-Hauser said, "What if Lot-Dude suddenly changes his mind? Do we have the ability to counterattack? By that time, our fleet will have already
Once you enter the planet Ennako, you can't retreat even if you want to."
"But he asked our three Commander II-class dreadnoughts not to enter the planet Ennako at the first time... If it was from the perspective that he wanted to trap us, he should not have asked the three Commanders first.
Did the II-class enter the planet Ennako and then be destroyed first without support?" Admiral Kourney said, "And we also retain the evidence of the meeting with Lot-Dude. Once we put this evidence
Go public, and I guarantee he won't make it out of Coruscant alive."
Seeing that Lynch-Hauser was still hesitant, Admiral Kourney continued: "There is no time to hesitate! This is the only thing we can do. Speaker Palpatine's instructions for us to launch an attack are becoming more and more frequent.
, he is about to lose his patience. Do everything we can, and leave the rest to fate."
Lynch-Hauser raised his eyebrows, "I would rather believe in the Force. But it's useless to say this now. All Jedi Knights are traitors."
He paused for a moment, and his expression finally became firm, "Let's get started! Inform the First Task Force and set off!"
…
Several Trade Federation spaceships quietly came to the Vanderhem planet in the other direction, and secretly handled the handover with the 17th Army. Next, they only need to wait for the battle on the other side to break out, and the Trade Federation can legitimately take the planet as its own.
have.
The representative of the Trade Alliance, Lott Dude, expressed great satisfaction with this. Then, with the order of Lynch Hauser, the Governor of the 17th Army, on May 34, the First Task Force of the 17th Army's main fleet came from
Depart from the spaceport on the planet Naboo, enter the hyperspace channel, and head towards the planet Ennaco!
The Battle of Ennaco breaks out!
The first task force of the 17th Army includes 5 Knight-class Star Destroyers, 20 Chasseur-class battlecruisers, 20 Aquitens-class light cruisers, 20 DP-20 anti-aircraft gunships, and 50 CR-70 frigates.
ship.
This is already a very huge force!
But at the same time, it is also the most scientific level of the number of warships that can pass through the hyperspace channel from the planet Naboo to the planet Ennaco at one time - neither causing hyperspace fluctuations due to reaching the limit of the number, which will affect the subsequent navigation, nor
Because the number is too small, it cannot threaten the planet Ennako where the Titan battleship Xuanwu is stationed.
After the First Task Force arrived on the planet Ennaco, they found that the separatist Titan battleship Xuanwu was setting up defenses around the spaceport on the outer edge of the planet.
The planet Ennaco is the cargo distribution center of the Trade Federation, so it has a very large spaceport. But don't think this is an advantage, because this kind of civilian loading and unloading spaceport is not equipped with deflector shields.
Moreover, because of its large size, it is often divided into several loading and unloading areas, and each loading and unloading area requires complete storage and logistics facilities, which results in a very fragile structure.
General Kourney's plan is to first raid the Trade Federation's spaceport to attract the attention of the Titan battleship Xuanwu, and then use the reinforcements arriving next to seize the opportunity to conduct orbital bombardment of the planet.
The location for the orbital bombing has also been selected. There is a large warehouse of the Trade Federation, and this warehouse really stores a large amount of materials.
According to Lott-Dude, only by causing real losses in this way can he proceed with the next action.
At this moment, the [|]-shaped huge body of the Ankeron-class Titan battleship Xuanwu is in front of the Trade Federation spaceport. Nearby are 4 Sova-class aircraft carriers, 12 Cole-class battlecruisers, and 5 Duno.
Husband-class battlecruisers, and a battle formation of 10 Apocalypse-class light cruisers.
Looking through the sensor screen at the huge Titan battleship that looked a little dazzling under the light of stars, Kabayo, the commander of the First Task Force of the 17th Army of the Republic, couldn't help but shed a drop of cold sweat.
What is in front of him is the super battleship Xuanwu that has made the entire Galactic Republic blush!
Kabayo knew very well that with his own strength, it was impossible to cause any damage to the separatist fleet supported by the Titan battleship Xuanwu.
But he must move forward!
Just like the name of his fleet - the task force, to put it bluntly, it is the cannon fodder fleet.
But because of his loyalty to the Galactic Republic, Kabayo still led his troops resolutely!
Loyalty is actually not lacking in this Galactic Republic.
"Avoid the opponent's Titan warships and attack the Trade Federation's spaceport!" Kabayo gave an order, and the Republic task force began to advance and began to fire heavy turbolaser cannons at the extreme range.
The Titan battleship Xuanwu also immediately started to move. I saw this battleship began to take the initiative to greet it, and a burst of red light emitted from the hull on both sides of the battleship. Then, under the action of the group shield, the entire Fourth Civilization Fleet
's shields have been enhanced!
Under such a solid defense, it is absolutely impossible for the Republic fleet to cause damage to the warships here.
But this time, the task force's target is the spaceport!
Boom! Boom! Boom! As several rounds of heavy turbolaser cannons hit, a loading dock in the spaceport that bore the brunt of the explosion suddenly began to disintegrate.
As if angered by this attack, the Titan battleship Xuanwu directly increased its power and charged forward!
