Admiral Theost's face was uncertain. He understood that failure was doomed.
No, after the simulation calculation results came out, failure was already a certain result. He was struggling so far just for a more decent ending.
I just didn’t expect that I would lose so miserably!
Even if two Commander II-class dreadnoughts participated in the battle, his fleet would still not be able to harm the fleet of the Fourth Civilization protected by the Titan battleship Xuanwu!
This is just like saying that the Jaeger class, as an aviation battleship, can engage in artillery battles with most of the main battleships of the separatists. You have advantages in quantity, tonnage and even total energy level. So fighting like this can only mean one thing.
Question - The technological content contained in the opponent's Titan battleship is at least two eras higher than the existing battleship technology of the Galactic Republic!
In the Quat Power Dockyard, in the Republic Ship Supervision Committee, and in front of the giant ship cannon model that the scientists in the Republic Engineering Department were quite complacent about, the Titan battleship Xuanwu told them with reality that energy output can not only be used to fire cannons.
You can still do so many things by beating people!
The most typical one is fleet shield technology! This system that caused him the most headache actually replaced the rigid shield with a flexible shield.
The deflector shield commonly used by the Republic is a rigid shield. This shield essentially uses its own energy level to offset the opponent's energy level. The two sides are head-on. Even among the latest technologies, one can deflect attacks
The energy spreads and is then dispersed and offset by the overall shield, but the essence remains unchanged.
The theory of flexible shields has been proposed by some in the scientific community of the Galactic Republic, but in the end they were unable to overcome the relevant problems and ultimately failed to transform the theory into practice.
The Xuanwu's fleet shield is a flexible shield that will continuously reduce, slow down and offset the incoming energy, and then use the battleship's own rigid shield to withstand the final remaining attack.
According to the engineer on board the ship, the fleet shield of the Xuanwu is not just that simple. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the energy level of the Xuanwu to support such a huge consumption of protecting hundreds of warships. What lies behind this
The technology is even beyond the imagination of those engaged in warship engineering!
It’s not a question of whether you can do it or not, it’s a question of whether you can even think of it!
The engineer told Theost with great certainty that if someone could send the Xuanwu to the Quat Power Dockyard intact, then in the next second that person would immediately become the deputy patriarch of the Quat family and immediately possess the Quat family.
At least 40% of the shares of Special Power Shipyard!
This is a super family whose market value is at least in the hundreds of billions or quadrillion levels!
"Call to all warships in the fleet to abandon other targets and attack the Xuanwu with all their strength!" Admiral Theost said these words stiffly from his throat.
This time, no one objected.
The two Jedi Masters Dover and Gayet also said, "Once we can break through the Xuanwu's shield, we will immediately lead a fighter formation to attack the Xuanwu's weaknesses as much as possible. If there is a chance, we can rush into the Xuanwu
Internally, that's probably the best outcome."
The fleet of the Galactic Republic began its final madness!
After the previous round of high-intensity battles, the 67 Jaeger-class battlecruisers that were still able to fight turned around, regardless of the obstruction of the Fourth Civilization Fleet, and flew towards the Titan battleship Xuanwu.
Then……
with full force!
All fighter jets of the Republic also began to attack in batches, with 1,500 fighter jets in each batch, to prevent too many fighter jets from flying over and being destroyed by the interference matrix of the Titan battleship Xuanwu.
The Fourth Civilization Fleet was also unceremonious and opened fire like crazy. They no longer needed the protection of the fleet shield. All they needed was to fire on the Republic warships whose attention was not on them at all!
shooting!
"Attack the opponent's unshielded Commander II with all your strength!" Ling Liang ordered loudly from the bridge of the Xuanwu.
Winter! Winter! Winter!
The roar of the heavy proton torpedoes was clearly transmitted through the hull, making the originally silent space battlefield even more intense.
The Catan Commander II-class dreadnought's close-in firepower was fully deployed, and the surrounding fighter jets also opened fire with all their strength to intercept the proton torpedoes, but two shots were still missed!
Two blue proton clouds exploded on the Commander II-class armor. After a collapse visible to the naked eye, the hit area exploded instantly, and flames sprayed out from the inside of the battleship.
A few seconds later, the Catan closed the fire-proof and explosion-proof compartment and the flames were extinguished, but two ferocious gaps were left on the battleship!
At the same time, the main guns of the two Commander II-class ships opened fire again!
And the Xuanwu's energy shield was finally overwhelmed!
"General Ling! Our ship's shield capacitor is overloaded! It needs to be recirculated!" the technician reported loudly.
"Lower the shield and restart the cooling cycle..." Before he finished speaking, boom~~!
A loud bang!
As soon as the heavy turbo laser fired from the Commander II level hit the Xuanwu ship, Ling Liang paused for a while. After she stood firm, she continued, "...the blast defense system begins to charge!"
Xuanwu's pulse laser main gun once again streaked across the Catan Commander II-class dreadnought, leaving the second and third burning ravines.
"General! 75% of the Catan's superstructure is damaged! Only 7 close-in defense turrets are left in use! Request to withdraw from the battle!" the communications soldier turned around and said loudly.
"Request rejection! Demand that Catan fight to the last man!
"Admiral Theost said decisively.
At this moment, all I could see was that the missile launcher group of the Titan battleship Xuanwu had completed loading, and there was another salvo of hundreds of missiles!
Even if the surrounding Republic fighter formations were frantically intercepting it, and even if the electronic jamming system was operating at full strength, with most of the close-defense turrets destroyed, the Commander II-class dreadnought was powerless against this round of missile attacks.
Hundreds of destructive blasts of fire exploded on the giant ship. The battleship's armor belt was completely damaged and its internal systems were severely damaged! The super-heavy turbo laser turret installed on the dome was also blown away in the blast of fire.
!
At the same time, on the bridge of the Xuanwu, Ling Liang issued an order, "Activate the blast defense system!
"
Buzz~~~~The next second, everyone on the Xuanwu Titan Battleship felt the vibrations of the battleship itself. Looking from the outside, one could see that the hulls on both sides of the Xuanwu were lit up for a while. It was not dazzling, but it made people feel...
The frightening red light!
Immediately afterwards, when the densely packed turbolaser cannons of the Jaeger-class battlecruisers of the Republic fleet hit the Xuanwu hull, the two pulse laser main guns on the bow of the Xuanwu also fired again!
Two pulse laser beams, much more powerful than before, were instantly fired, shining on the Catan Commander II-class dreadnought! But this time, in order to enhance the attack effect, the pulse laser did not sweep across, but directly aimed at the Catan's main gun.
The holes left after the turret was blown away continue to shine!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
!
A dense explosion exploded on the Xuanwu!
At the same time, an even stronger explosion erupted inside the Catan! The entire battleship exploded from inside the dome! Then it broke into two pieces!
But at this time, Admiral Theost just looked in the direction of the Xuanwu and murmured: "No... this is impossible..."
