Chapter 2091 The Battle of Christophesis
2091, Battle of Christophsis (Part 2)
Only the formation of the Republic fleet was seen, with four cruisers flipped over and facing forward as the front. The other cruisers were arranged in a claw-shaped formation on all sides, constantly providing fire cover for the four cruisers with strange postures.
This weird formation also surprised Admiral Trench, "What is the Republic's fleet doing? By directly exposing the belly of the battleship, it is equivalent to completely sacrificing the firepower and maneuverability of the battleship, and can only be passively beaten?"
The Fox Immortal looked stern and said in a deep voice: "The four Jaeger-class cruisers they placed at the front with their bellies facing us are the four that were seriously damaged in the previous battle. And they are not in space in the universe.
There is no air resistance. Even if they adopt this flying posture and use reverse thrust engines for propulsion, their speed will not be much slower! Their target is our flagship, the Rookery Hook-class battleship!"
Admiral Trench touched the chelicerae at the corner of his mouth and asked, "I don't quite understand. Is there any necessary connection between the two?" He was tapping the pointer with his other two hands, and he was beating it with two other hands.
Operate on the holographic screen, switch between the images in various areas of the battlefield, and put the entire battlefield situation into your mind. This action made the fox fairy couldn't help but curse, six arms are good.
Fox Fairy replied: "The Jaeger-class cruiser can be said to be very powerful and balanced in terms of speed and firepower, including armor and shields. But it has one weakness that is not a weakness, and that is the size of the hangar of this cruiser.
The landing platform is set on the top of the spacecraft, not on the side like our Confederate warships. Therefore, when space fighters take off from the Jaeger-class cruiser, they often cannot accelerate to the fastest speed immediately, and they are easily hit by their own artillery fire.
The enemy's firepower can easily cover the area where the fighter jets take off."
This is the advantage of knowing the plot in advance. In the plot, Anakin Skywalker used this strange trick to forcefully approach the enemy's flagship and then launch a surprise attack. Although it was not used during the Battle of Christophsis
Yes, but obviously, because of the intervention of the Guardian Planet and the strong military pressure, he also came up with this trick in advance.
And although this tactic is weird, it is actually very effective. During the later Galactic Empire, Marshal Thrawn, the last empire general, also used this tactic. It is said that he was fighting Anna, who had become Darth Vader at that time.
After the exchange with Jin, I learned. It can be said that if the Fox Immortal didn't know the tactics, he really wouldn't be able to react to the other party's plan.
Admiral Trench is worthy of being a famous general. He suddenly understood, "So they turned the battleship over so that they could use the battleship as a shield to cover the takeoff of their space fighter plane! And we also completely watched the fighter plane take off.
Missing! Tsk tsk tsk tsk.”
"That's it! So now if I guessed correctly, all the crews on these four Jaeger-class cruisers have been evacuated and are using automatic navigation. And behind the battleships, there must be a huge fighter group hidden!! They
Prepare to sacrifice these four cruisers and rush to our flagship. Then all the fighter planes will rush out from behind the battleship and directly attack our flagship!!" Fox Fairy's face was serious. She turned around and asked loudly to the tactical robot: "
Have you found the other party’s stealth spacecraft?”
"We found a magnetic field anomaly in the direction of coordinates 337.452, but this method cannot locate the opponent's position very accurately. It must be locked after they appear once." The tactical robot said, holding its hands.
Fox Fairy shouted an order before Trench could speak: "Immediately use the secondary guns to fire a covering shot at the target area! Then take off two squadrons of Vulture fighter jets to fire indiscriminately in that direction to force the stealth warship out!"
"In fact, wouldn't it be better to use missile attacks?" Trench turned around and asked.
Because Anakin Skywalker is probably on the invisible spaceship, we can't really shoot him down. The fox fairy replied in her heart, she shook her head and said: "I have my reasons, I still focus on him now."
Let’s attack from the front!”
Admiral Trench didn't ask any more questions. He turned back to look at the holographic screen, shook his head and said: "If the other party really has this intention, then we really don't have any good solutions. Tsk tsk tsk tsk. Chasseur-class cruiser
The structure is solid and the shield is very powerful. With our firepower, it is really difficult to destroy these four cruisers before the other party gets close. And if it weren't for your reminder that we discovered their stealth warships, this wave of offensive would have really been possible.
Might wipe us all out. Tsk tsk tsk tsk.”
"They just saw that our number of battleships was insufficient, so they used this method to force us to exchange firepower, and they also pointed out the weakness of the Rookery Hook-class battleships that were afraid of being attacked by fighter groups. All we can say is, Anakin Skywalker
He is really a genius." Fox Fairy sighed, and then asked: "Then what should we do now?"
Admiral Trench banged his pointer and said: "Since the opponent has an absolute advantage in strength and their commander is not mediocre, we can only retreat. Send the fleet to the satellite of the planet Christophsis, Lacey
Go into Sri Lanka's shadow and maintain a military presence."
Fox Fairy nodded and said: "Maintain military presence? Smart! Since the Republic is eager to reinforce Christophsis, once we withdraw from the blockade, they will not be able to take care of both ends. On the one hand, they are afraid of our fleet whose strength has not been damaged.
, on the other hand, they must protect the army troops when they land on the planet, so their maneuverability will inevitably be affected!"
"Indeed. But once this happens, the greatest pressure will shift to our ground troops. If your information is correct, the Republic's reinforcements include two main legions, plus other troops, a total of one hundred thousand troops
If so, our 200,000 robot troops will hardly be their match. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk..." Admiral Trench said.
"Don't forget where our advantage lies, General Trench. The core main force of the Grand Republic Army is only the 3 million clone troops. The rest are natural troops recruited temporarily. They are large in number but their combat effectiveness is almost negligible. And the light force
We are the guardians of the planet, and we have 60 million robot legions!"
After saying this, Fox Fairy was somewhat proud. She raised two fingers and said: "So, now we do two things. First, immediately let the Rookery Hook-class battleship return to the Guardian Planet from the other direction to load more
The army is coming. Second, let the army troops who landed on Kristofsis give up attacking Tofin and instead engage in street fighting in the previously occupied cities! Don't worry about one thing, our T-2 combat robot
, and those B-1 robots of the Trade Federation, they are completely on two different levels! One is a robot, the other is a mechanical life!"
"Then do it! Tsk tsk tsk tsk." Admiral Trench nodded, and immediately all the warships of Wisdom began to turn and fly towards the satellite of the planet Christophsis, Lysis. Because it had been done before
They were prepared to retreat at any time, so the Confederate warships retreated in an orderly manner, leaving no chance for the Republic fleet.
