Scared did not let Rendili wait too long. After arriving in the Rendili system, he handed over the task of reorganizing the planetary defense fleet to his classmate Lieutenant General Jane Dodenner, and then immediately launched
attack!
According to his observations and understanding, the half of the planetary defense fleet warships currently led by Master Yoda and Jing Fang can be said to be in very bad condition.
The equipment inside these battleships is not full of personnel at all, and they are all in a mess. Some battleships are full of engineering department soldiers, while on some battleships, when you enter the power compartment, you can only see a few recruits wearing communications armbands.
Study the thick operating manual there.
Moreover, after experiencing the previous riots, these soldiers were demoralized, exhausted, and had almost lost the will to continue fighting, so they had to receive psychological counseling.
Moreover, the supplies and maintenance of these warships were incomplete, because when the riots began, many combat readiness supplies had not yet been delivered.
Based on the status of these soldiers, Lieutenant General Skared judged that the situation of the other half of the warships on the Rendili rebel side was not much better. But time could not be delayed, Lieutenant General Jan Dodenner said that he needed three days
If there is time to complete the preparation work, then the rebels backed by the planet Rendili may only need half the time to reorganize and complete their fleet.
So although the task force in his hands only had 20 warships, Lieutenant General Skared still resolutely launched the assault!
The battleships of the task force he led were all newly off the production line. Both the equipment and personnel on the battleships were in the best condition. And there were three Knight-class Star Destroyers stationed there. He believed that the old Dreadnought-class ships were dying.
Heavy cruisers are no match at all!
It has to be said that Lieutenant General Skared, as a new generation of academic generals of the Galactic Republic, is still very capable. The first wave of attacks he launched made Jesse, the commander of the Lundili rebel fleet -
Darling fell into panic.
…
"Left wing! Left wing! Don't run away from the Dunbulo! Hold it! Hold it!!!" Captain Jesse Darling's roar came from the communication channel.
Darth Malthael frowned.
Even if he didn't understand fleet battle command at all, he could still hear the problem - the instructions issued by Captain Jesse Darling were full of nonsense such as 'hold it', 'get it', 'fire with full force'
Meaningful vocabulary.
As for how their fleet should act, how to use its strengths and avoid weaknesses to give full play to the advantages of its own warships, how to adjust its formation according to the opponent's arrangement, how to use fighter formations, the timing of missile salvos, etc., Jesse Dahl
Lin has none of it.
Yes, this Jesse Darling is a clone that has been replaced, but what about the clone? Should he be a fool or a fool? If he clones another one, he will become a fool 2.
Complementing him were the captains of the other battleships. As soon as these captains saw the Republic Task Force charging at them ferociously, they immediately panicked. Those who dared shouted, "Hit me," and then they looked blank.
If you are in a daze looking at the holographic star map, how to fight? Where to hit? You have no idea at all.
Those who are timid can simply command the warship to turn around and run away!
Run?us? Planet Rendili is right behind you. Where can you run? Run back and hit the planetary shield?
In the face of the chaotic resistance of the Lundili Planet Fleet, the Republic Task Force successfully disrupted their formation in almost the first assault. Now as the distance between the two sides gets closer and closer, I am afraid that the Republic Task Force will wait until the Republic Task Force rushes over to complete the breakthrough.
, after the two sides enter a melee, Rendili's fleet will completely collapse immediately.
In other words, they can't wait until that time.
Boom!! The battleship Darth Malthael was on was hit hard by a turbo laser. Although the deflector shield successfully neutralized and dissipated the firepower of the shot, the powerful energy impact still shook the battleship.
"Scan the source of the gunfire!" Even if he didn't understand space warfare, Darth Malthael knew that the power of this gun was extraordinary and it was definitely not fired by an ordinary warship.
"rgrrgr!" A B-1 robot began to operate on the computer, and soon a wedge-shaped battleship image was projected on the screen.
"Imperial-class Star Destroyer?! How is this possible!" Darth Malthael was shocked. Due to lack of information, he directly regarded the Knight-class as the Imperial-class. Although the two were quite different, "The Imperial-class is at least
Serving the army one to two years ahead of schedule! If it is really imperial-level..."
The gap in the quality of battleships, the gap in commanders, and... Darth Malthael looked at the holographic star map. The transport ship was like birds and beasts running around because of the attack. There was also a gap in the level of war preparation!
Those transport ships were transporting additional troops and supplies to the planetary defense fleet, but before the replenishment was completed, the Republic fleet arrived and immediately launched an attack!
He somewhat underestimated Palpatine's determination. After all, in the original plot, when the Republic of Korea dealt with the Rendili incident, they did not mobilize a fleet. But this time, Sheev Palpatine was obviously determined.
The idea is to rather delay the Republic's counterattack, we must first resolve what happened between the Interstellar Banking Association and Lundili Interstellar Power Company.
Of course, it doesn't matter whether he underestimates or not, it's impossible for him to bring a fleet commander to Lundili. In fact, that's it. After all, Lundili Interstellar Power Company is the card in the hands of the Ulan family.
That's it, a thick stack, all numbers, not a single head.
But now, the early arrival of the Galactic Republic's task force has made the situation on Rendili planet even worse.
It will take at least one and a half to two days for Severance Tann's fleet to arrive here. After all, she needs to find loopholes in the Republic's defense system in the complicated hyperspace channels, and then lead the fleet through the Republic's defense zone.
Planet Rendilli.
But if we look at the current battle situation, the fleet on the Rendili Rebel Army's side may not be able to sustain it for even one day!
Darth Malthael looked at the holographic star map and saw a Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser turning around and trying to escape. As a result, an Imperial-class Star Destroyer fired a shot at the engine behind it, and then a large amount of flames erupted from the engine position.
and the thick smoke, the battleship also tilted over and stopped moving.
Less than 10 minutes after the war started, Rendili's warships suffered battle damage!
Two hours at most... Darth Malthael re-estimated the time it would take for the fleet to collapse.
He opened the communication of the whole fleet and said coldly: "All warships obey the order and organize resistance with the space defense platform as the core! It is strictly forbidden to take a step back! If you avoid fighting and escape, the first time, the adjutant will be executed. The second time, the captain will be executed directly.
!The above instructions are executed by the death squads of each ship!"
The 'suicide squads' he was talking about were actually the people they brainwashed using the rebirth medical cabin. These people absolutely obeyed orders, so this time they were used to serve as military police.
In any case, Rendili's defense fleet has 5 to 60 capital ships and a larger number of small and medium-sized warships. Not to mention the exquisite battlefield command, as long as these warships stand still and use full firepower, there will be many more
Even less can be effective, at least keep a lower limit.
Then, you will have more time to think about countermeasures!
