1630, Haunted Fleet
When the 20 Jaeger-class battlecruisers of the Fourth Battle Group of the Galactic Republic Expeditionary Force and 5 Cheer-class assault landing ships arrived at the outer space battlefield of the planet Annaji, the first three battle groups had already reached the critical point.
situation.
There are now only 11 of the 20 Invincible-class battlecruisers in the First Battle Group, and their current positions are desperately moving towards the Third Battle Group. In the nearby airspace, fighter formations from both sides are fighting bloody battles.
Not open to trade.
But the second battle group is particularly strange. Out of the 10 Knight-class Star Destroyers and 5 Chasseur-class battlecruisers, there are now only 6 Knight-class and 4 Chasseur-class battlecruisers left. The other battleships are floating crookedly in the air.
In space, a huge gap was even blown out, and it was completely paralyzed at first glance.
The strange thing is that all the surviving battleships of the second battle group are parked in place, with no intention of moving at all.
At the same time, the Third Battle Group was engaged in a fierce battle with the Separatist fleet, and was clearly at a disadvantage. The Separatists dispatched 8 Behemoth-class battlecruisers and were bombing them indiscriminately!
The Yamato cannon fired continuously, exploding on the deflector shields of the Jaeger-class and Knight-class ships, leaving the wreckage of three Jaeger-class battlecruisers around. Obviously, in such an artillery battle, they were completely defeated!
The Third Battle Group has 20 Jaeger-class battlecruisers and 5 Knight-class Star Destroyers. Such strength should have been an absolute advantage, but on the Separatist side, an unknown number of Disaster-class battlecruisers are hidden near the planet Annaji.
The shadow of a satellite kept firing long-range fire, and the powerful firepower forced the Republic fleet to retreat steadily.
The strange thing is that although the first battle group and the third battle group are both in a hard fight, and at the same time, a discerning person can tell that the second battle group is also extremely miserable, but neither the first nor the third battle group wants to follow them at all.
The second battle group was approaching, but on the contrary, they were still fighting and retreating, heading away from that direction.
It was as if what was over there was not the severely damaged Second Battle Group, but a terrifying space monster!
The lonely second battle group is still parked there, with nothing around it. There are no fighter jets taking off or returning, and there are no other enemy ships. Even friendly forces are moving away. It is not even known who the lost warships are.
By whom and how was it sunk?
"This is the fourth battle group! The on-site commander will report the situation immediately!" the commander of the fourth battle group said loudly in the communication.
"This is the First Battle Group! Requesting to assemble!"
[This is the second battle group, requesting to assemble.]
"The third battle...no!
do not go!
Ignore them!
"
A series of voices came from the communication, some were urgent, some were gloomy, and some were frightened.
"What happened!?" The commander of the Fourth Battle Group frowned and looked at the two faces distorted by fear on the screen in front of him, "Second Battle Group, is your video call system malfunctioning?"
[This is the second battle group, requesting reinforcements.] The gloomy voice from the second battle group is still repeating.
"The second battle group has been completely wiped out...the reason...is unknown..." the commander of the third battle group's voice was trembling.
"Total destruction? But he is still there..."
"Over there...all are people who should be dead..." The commander of the First Battle Group's voice was even more crying.
"but……"
"Stop talking! The war situation is urgent! Stay away from the Second Battle Group and we regroup! The separatist offensive is fierce!" the commander of the Third Battle Group yelled hysterically, "Take off fighter jets to support! We can't hold on anymore!"
"
"...Understood! The fighter formation takes off immediately! The Cheer-class assault landing ship formation retreats away from the battlefield! Each ship enters the combat position!" The commander of the fourth battle group finally made up his mind and gave the order loudly.
"The new combat communication frequency has been sent to you individually through encrypted communication. Let's leave this channel." The commander of the third battle group said.
[This is the second battle group, save us.]
"This is the second Pi... Dou Qun, save us... Pi la..." The voice was low, hoarse, and lifeless.
Drops of black blood flowed down and into the microphone, causing bursts of noise. The lips of the mouth that was speaking had turned purple, and a big hole was blown open on the chin, forming a lake of flesh and blood, and black and smelly blood.
It keeps flowing down the hole in the chin.
A small piece of the face had been blown off, and next to the wound hole, there were still pieces of cerebral cortex tissue and gray-white brain matter.
[...Save us...] The commander of the Second Battle Group had already turned into a rotting corpse. He shot himself directly from the chin with a blaster.
But death is not his end.
He was still sitting on the main seat of the bridge, swaying, holding a communicator and constantly sending distress messages.
The main lighting in the bridge has been extinguished, and the red light of the backup power supply illuminates the not-too-large bridge space, making this already extremely scary place even more like a hell of death!
Dead... everyone is dead...
But they were still moving, stagnantly at their original posts, swaying, and seemed to be unable to stand firmly.
Everyone is highly corrupted, as if they have been dead for several days.
Who could have known that just a few hours ago, they were still alive and kicking!
This battleship has become a steel coffin! No, all the battleships in the second battle group have become like this!
…
The battle was still going on. Volgograd-Kanidi seized the opportunity of the annihilation of the second battle group and sent his own fleet to launch an assault against the third battle group of the Republic, which was currently the strongest.
The Behemoth-class battlecruiser surges forward, while the Catastrophe-class battlecruiser hides in the dark and attacks from a distance with its particle light spear.
Under the powerful electronic interference, it is difficult for the radar of the Republic fleet to detect the location of these disaster-class battlecruisers, and naturally there is no way to counterattack.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The Dawn Principality fleet continued to attack, forcing the Republic's First and Third Battle Groups to continuously retreat and retreat, making it impossible for them to continue to develop their formations.
Even if the fourth battle group arrives, it can't turn the tide of the battle!
Obviously, judging from the configuration of the first four battle groups of the Galactic Republic, their plan is very obvious.
First, the old Invincible-class battlecruiser was used as the lead, and the first battle group came to conduct fire reconnaissance to attract the attention of the defenders.
The second battle group has a total of 10 Knight-class Star Destroyers. It is obvious that after the second batch arrived, it further contained the defenders of the Principality of Dawn through long-range bombardment.
Next, the third battle group of 20 Hunter-class ships and 5 Knight-class ships will completely gain a firm foothold. Whether it is a fighter formation or fleet artillery battle, it will form a very powerful combat effectiveness, making it impossible for the defenders of the Dawn Principality to start.
Then, the 20 Jaeger-class battlecruisers of the Fourth Battle Group escorted the 5 Cheer-class assault landing ships. It was obvious that they wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to launch a landing!
What a beautiful thought!
A sarcastic smile appeared under Volgograd-Kanidi's beard. Who made this plan? It really is me who is the leader. I don't care about how the other party responds. I only care about how to achieve my own tactics.
Obviously student style.
The so-called student style is that you can't say that his tactical arrangement is wrong. On the contrary, his tactical arrangement and troop ratio are better than others. Judging from the take-off fighter formation, the opponent's commander is obviously targeting the carrier.
The ratio of aircraft has also been carefully calculated, with targeted configurations for different combat stages.
But...the battlefield is changing rapidly, and no one is obliged to follow your lead.
What Volgograd-Kanidi did was to attack with precision and precision, without giving the Republic fleet any chance to stabilize its position! It was to make them fall into the quagmire of battle from the second they left the hyperspace jump.
You can't escape from it.
He was not without concerns, because the hyperspace jump used by the Galactic Republic this time was somewhat abnormal. Because of the normal hyperspace jump, although the landing point can be adjusted, generally speaking, it must follow the direction of the hyperspace channel.
The essence of hyperspace channels is actually a series of safe passages in the vast hyperspace that avoid all mass projections. Therefore, if you want to reach your destination through such a passage, you naturally cannot twist and turn in the passage, and then
Coming out from the other direction - then this is not a channel, it is simply the calm high seas.
Hyperspace has never been so quiet.
But this time, after the Galactic Republic's warships left hyperspace, their landing range was very large, and they were completely out of the scope of hyperspace channels!
If anything, it can even be described as the Galactic Republic and their ability to adjust the angle of the hyperspace channel!
How can this be?!
The Kingdom of Dawn's technology database contains many super-light navigation technologies, from wormholes to star gates. However, none of the technologies involved in hyperspace channels can adjust the angle of hyperspace channels!
This can only be understood as the Galactic Republic has been immersed in the technology of hyperspace channels for tens of thousands of years, and their understanding of hyperspace is even higher than that in the Principality of Dawn database!
If they are allowed to continue to increase their troops from different directions, then with the overwhelming superiority of the Galactic Republic, the planet Annaji will soon be surrounded, forcing the defenders to divide their forces for defense, making the troops even more stretched.
This can only show that the Galactic Republic is well prepared, and is even prepared to complete its victory in one battle! Therefore, Volgograd-Kanidi must not allow this to happen!
He commanded the fleet to continue the attack, and did not stop even after the arrival of the Fourth Battle Group of the Republic. They continued to attack! Constantly oppressing their formation! This way, their follow-up reinforcements could not continue to be deployed.
And... Canidi looked in the direction of the second battle group.
That man...the man revered as the Grand Duke of Dawn...
He had just destroyed an entire Galactic Republic's most advanced Star Destroyer battle group! The 10 Knight-class Star Destroyers had never suffered such heavy losses since the advent of the Knight-class Star Destroyer.
But in front of the Duke of Dawn, the Sith Lord, those Star Destroyers were like toys.
Is this... his power...
Volgograd-Kanidi did not hide his dislike for Tang Xiao at all. Not long after he woke up, he had always wanted to take a production position and was arranged by Tang Xiao to become a pirate. Later, he was asked to go to Kuna.
The star cluster went to withstand the aggressive war behavior of the domineering Airu people at that time.
From that moment on, he knew that he and Tang Xiao were not the same person.
However, he could only admit that the leader of the current Fourth Civilization could only be Tang Xiao. If it were anyone else, he might be able to completely destroy the entire Fourth Civilization in less than half a year.
This has nothing to do with ability, but because the fourth civilization has followed the path planned by Tang Xiao from the day it set foot on the Dawn Planet - the path of war.
According to Volgograd-Kanidi, the road to war is the road to destruction.
Before the doomed destruction, what he wanted was to build the Model Sector into a place where people could live and work in peace and contentment during the war. Even if it was just a part of it, that would be enough.
But when the Galactic Republic's fleet broke through the impossible channel and arrived at the Model Sector, he realized that he had underestimated the Galactic Republic, underestimated this war, and underestimated... Tang Xiao
!
From this moment on, the future of the Model Sector is no longer under the control of the Sector itself.
In the future...what else can be done? Volgograd-Kanidi sighed secretly in his heart.
On the battlefield, the fleet of the Galactic Republic continued to retreat. After suffering heavy losses, except for the second battle group, which had become a dead end, the other three battle groups finally joined together, with a strength of more than 50 ships.
The battleship is considered capable of fighting in a battle.
The battleship formations supported each other, and the fighter formations resolutely intercepted enemy aircraft after taking off, finally preventing the battle from collapsing.
Finally, the white light of hyperspace flashed violently, and the fifth battle group arrived on the battlefield!
The flagship of the expeditionary force, the Commander-class dreadnought USS Tagg, is at the core of the fifth battle group!
The huge force of 40 Jaeger-class battlecruisers and 5 Governor-class battleships immediately changed the strength of both the enemy and ourselves.
"What the hell... happened?!" Casio Tagg roared loudly when he saw the Republic fleet retreating steadily.
"The Angel of Death..." Sa-Kuins turned his head and looked in the direction of the second battle group. Although it was more than 100,000 kilometers away and could not be seen with the naked eye, he could still accurately judge the force through his perception.
After seeing this result, "It turned out to be the Angel of Death himself who took action!"
He said gloomily, "Forget it! If we can kill him, the war in the Western Region will be over!"
"We are not his opponents, don't act rashly." Gian Droga, who had been hiding himself under the hood, said slowly.
"Are we here just to watch a show?" Sa Kuins said displeased.
"Lord Sidious, we have already made arrangements..." A cruel smile appeared on the corner of Jian Droga's mouth under his hood.
