The firefight on the Dirksen satellite can no longer be described as tragic. In this hell on earth, hundreds of people die every minute in this cold steel city, but thousands more die every minute.
Thousands of people were thrown into this hell that has swallowed up countless lives.
The Galactic Republic, relying on its large numbers of people, has launched its landing operation in full swing. They released thousands of LAAT assault transport boats, set off from the fleet, broke into the atmosphere of the Dexon satellite, and then landed on the ground, throwing a large number of soldiers into the air.
Get inside this giant meat grinder.
All the more than 200 large and small transport ships are not idle. These ships constantly shuttle between the logistics base on the planet Onderon and the Dexon satellite, delivering huge amounts of logistics materials to several large transit transport ships in space, and then
Then send it to the Dexon satellite.
And on the surface of the Dexon satellite, the Republic army has also established a foothold in several locations. Although the separatists used siege tanks to bombard these landing sites indiscriminately, the Republic army was too numerous.
As more and more Republic Army soldiers entered the shield, the battle began to turn into a more brutal close-quarters battle.
Behind the army position established by the Galactic Republic, more than a dozen SPHA-T self-propelled turbolaser cannons have been deployed. These are the heavy units that the Republic Air Force used their lives to protect as they landed.
As the SPHA-T-shaped turbo laser cannon completes charging, this 140.2-meter-long super-heavy ground heavy gun lifts the more than 150-meter-long super turbo laser cannon barrel on its back, and then aims it in the direction of the city shield.
Just open fire and shoot!
The thick beam of light shone on the city's shield, causing ripples of extremely powerful energy.
That's right, irradiation! The SPHA-T's heavy turbolaser cannon is even better than the XX-9 heavy turbolaser cannon used on the Republic Star Destroyer in terms of energy efficiency ratio. This turbolaser cannon fires various elements and even
It can continuously emit turbo laser, which is equivalent to continuously pouring ionized explosive gas on the target while continuously irradiating it.
It's equivalent to continuous irradiation plus continuous explosions.
However, this kind of weapon requires the design of a specialized large-scale energy core, and the maximum range is not ideal, so it is not suitable for use on large battleships. However, it can be said to be a super-standard weapon when mounted on a super-heavy walker and used as a ground weapon.
Terrible weapon!
To make an analogy, during the Battle of Naboo 12 years ago, if the Legion-level energy shield used by the Gungans was handed over to SPHA-T, it would only take one shot to break the shield. But in Ji
During the Battle of Onosis, the 1,029-meter-diameter spherical core spacecraft of the Rookery Hook-class battleship was unable to withstand the fire of several SPHA-Ts!
The power of this land-based weapon is evident!
Under the continuous bombardment of more than a dozen SPHA-T self-propelled turbolaser cannons, the city-level shield of the City of Steel finally began to loosen, and gaps began to appear in some places. Taking advantage of this opportunity, some Republic fighter formations took the opportunity to fly
Entering the city, they conducted suicide bombings on those anti-aircraft firepower points.
Although these fighter jets were all shot down quickly, the proton torpedoes they launched previously even caused explosions when they fell, destroying some anti-aircraft turrets.
This was the first loss of anti-aircraft firepower within the Steel City since the war began.
And the attacks on the ground were non-stop. The Galactic Republic Army soldiers almost stepped on the corpses in front of them, layer upon layer, layer upon layer, and finally piled the corpses within the scope of the city-level shield!
In order to clear a path among countless corpses, Republic Army commanders even installed a shovel in front of some AT-TE walkers to shovel the corpses aside to reveal a walkable path.
After Wilhuff Tarkin gave the order to launch a landing assault, in the following four hours of brutal fighting, the number of casualties among the Republic's natural soldiers was - 470,000!
Equivalent to one-twentieth of the total strength of the entire legion!
What limits the further expansion of this number to a terrifying level is actually the lack of landing capacity of the Galactic Republic.
That's right, under the frantic defense of the City of Steel, even if 1 million people are thrown down, the result will only be 1 million corpses!
So much so that after many Galactic Republic troops landed and saw the corpses on the ground, many troops refused to move forward. However, the Republic Army had long been prepared for this, and all troops who refused to move forward would be shot on the spot.
The commander threatened all soldiers that if they refused to participate in the war, the Republic would not be able to guarantee the future living conditions of their families.
This is equivalent to a naked threat!
If they still refuse to participate in the war, what awaits them is the crazy firing of the E-WEB heavy blaster machine gun that has been set up!
However, as the city-level shield of the City of Steel began to be overwhelmed by the continuous attacks, and more and more Republic troops rushed through the shield range and fighter groups entered the shield to bomb, this terrible casualty
The numbers will gradually decrease.
But it’s still a very scary number!
However, as the war situation has developed to this point, Wilhuff Tarkin has already given up. He has only one idea now - to completely plow the Dexon satellite to the ground! The sooner, the better!
The tide of Republic soldiers roared towards the City of Steel, and then fell in pieces under the endless firepower.
Then another wave of Republic soldiers continued to rush over! There was almost no stopping.
…
At this moment, Yinzi City, the capital of the planet Onderon.
All hospitals were filled with hundreds of thousands of wounded people in an instant, and spaceships carrying a large number of wounded people continued to land.
Hospital beds have long been occupied, doctors are overwhelmed, and even many medical robots have malfunctioned and damaged due to continuous operation.
Walking into the hospital, screams and wailings are endless. The corridors, balconies, and even toilets are full of wounded people. There are also a large number of nurse robots floating among the wounded. All the wounded who are judged by these robots to have a survival probability of less than 30% will
They are simply discarded as dead, leaving beds and medical resources to those who have a higher chance of survival.
Yes, among these hospitals, there is another hell.
Although the Republic's transport fleet is also arranging spaceships to send some wounded people to other galaxies for treatment, there are too many people after all. A large number of wounded people have no chance of surviving until rescue arrives, and they die in a corner of the hospital.
Here, being able to die on a hospital bed is a luxury.
The planet Onderon has become a meat grinder devouring countless lives!
