In the battlefield in the outer space of the planet Annaji, the fleets of both sides almost collided with each other in an extremely violent manner.
Under the command of Volgograd-Kanidi, the 10 Hells Angel-class battlecruisers of the Dawn Principality fleet rushed directly to the front, turned the ship sideways, and opened fire with the eight heavy laser cannons on the sides!
The intensive firepower of the Galactic Republic fleet also poured in, and most of the firepower was directed at the Hells Angels at the front. However, the Hells Angels-class battlecruisers were equipped with heavy armor and strong electrothermal armor coatings, which effectively absorbed the firepower.
The firepower of the turbolaser cannon made their attack futile.
Republic Fleet Commander Casio Tagg also quickly discovered the clues. He ordered the last five Knight-class Star Destroyers he currently has here as the lead, and then sent the five 4,000-meter-level Governor-class ships to cover and conduct a forward attack.
.
In addition to the 60-seat XX-9 dual heavy turbolaser cannons, the Knight-class Star Destroyer is also equipped with 60 ion cannons specifically used to destroy shields. However, the range of the ion cannons is relatively short and requires close proximity to exert its power.
.
As a top student, Casio Tagg still has some real talents. He discovered the heat-absorbing function of the outer armor of the Hell's Angel-class battlecruiser from the battlefield data scan, and immediately thought of using the ion cannon of the Knight-class Star Destroyer to attack
, increasing the energy supply pressure of the Hells Angels through electromagnetic damage.
However, the number of Knight-class Star Destroyers was still too small after all. The heavy hull of the Governor-class battleship was also equipped with 40 ion cannons, which could also provide some help, so Casio Tagg sent the Governor-class battleship aboard as well.
Volgograd-Kanidi also responded tit-for-tat. He immediately ordered the Disaster-class battlecruisers in the rear to target the Governor-class battlecruisers of the Republic Fleet and shoot at them. The powerful power of the particle lance and the speed of light attack formed the most direct impact on the Governor-class battlecruisers.
threaten!
And the five Dunov-class battlecruisers moved closer to the Hell's Angel-class, using their own engine overload and remote power transmission equipment to quickly replenish energy for the Hell's Angel-class to avoid armor coating failure due to power outages. Once the armor coating fails,
Under intensive attacks, the outer armor belt will quickly melt and fall off, exposing the fragile internal structure of the battleship.
At the same time, the Behemoth-class battlecruisers began to use Yamato cannons to bombard the Jaeger-class battlecruisers of the Republic fleet. After all, the Jaeger-class battlecruisers had the numerical advantage, and the bombardment from both sides was temporarily evenly matched.
At this moment, variables occur in the second battle group!
That fleet of the dead!
Darth Malthael took off again in a fighter jet after the red comet was fully charged. Unsurprisingly, the Force-sensitive people on the Republic side also took off dozens of Eta-2 fighter jets to attack.
But this time, Darth Malthael took a completely different approach!
On the one hand, he ordered the 6 Knight-class Star Destroyers and 4 Chasseur-class battlecruisers of the Second Battle Group to rush forward in a completely indomitable manner, pretending to be in collision. At the same time, the battleships also continued to fire.
Although under the control of those walking zombies, the artillery fire was almost inaccurate, but the firepower density of the 60 XX-9 heavy turbolaser cannons of the Knight class was still able to hit a lot of artillery fire.
At the same time, Darth Malthael also began to focus on traveling and not engage in head-on combat with those ETA-2 fighters.
On the contrary, he also began to fly towards the Republic's fleet at high speed. And he repeated his old tricks. Once he found that the opponent was chasing him, he immediately hid himself under the fire cover of the second battle group and continued to advance.
This trick was indeed tried and true. After noticing the Red Comet's actions, the dozens of ETA-2 fighter jets wanted to rush forward, but were forced back by the anti-aircraft firepower of the Second Battle Group. And Darth Malthael also
He was determined not to fight them head-on, but just looked for every opportunity to get closer to the Republic's fleet.
Upon seeing this, the commander-in-chief of the Galactic Republic Fleet, Casio Tagg, had no choice but to let his fleet start to retreat to avoid the second battle group. At the same time, he took off 200 fighter jets to reinforce, intending to continue to entangle Darth Massa.
IL.
So under the unreasonable assault of Darth Malthael and the Second Battle Group, the battle situation once again turned into a chase and escape situation.
In such a battle, the Dawn Principality's fleet naturally had the upper hand, destroying the Republic's four Jaeger-class battlecruisers during the pursuit. However, they only had two Hell's Angel-class ships that were severely damaged and needed to be dragged back for repairs.
This time, the Republic Fleet also unexpectedly discovered that in such a battlefield situation where the enemy was facing away and escaping, the Chasseur-class performed much better than the Knight-class.
Because of the strange turret layout of the Jaeger-class battlecruiser, the eight XX-9 heavy-duty turbolaser cannon turrets are installed on both sides of the bridge, 4 on each side, that is, at the rear end of the battleship. The front section of the Jaeger-class battlecruiser is all
Naturally, a turret cannot be installed on the hangar platform.
As a result, when the two sides are facing the enemy head-on, it is difficult for the Chasseur-class to use its full firepower. However, when escaping, because the turrets are all in the rear half, you only need to lift the bow a little, and your back is turned to the enemy.
The ship can still use its full firepower.
I wonder what Willix Blissex, the chief designer of the Jaeger-class, was thinking when he found out that his masterpiece actually played a great role in escaping.
In this battle, Darth Malthael chased the Republic warships for more than 200,000 kilometers, and constantly dealt with the ETA-2 fighter jets flown by those who were sensitive to the dark side. The second battle group was in
Under the control of the B-1 combat robot and the walking dead, they are also rushing forward crazily.
In the end, Darth Malthael shot down five Eta-2 fighters again, and at the same time, he rushed over and used the power of death to control two Jaeger-class battlecruisers that could not escape.
As for the Second Battle Group, all four Jaeger-class battlecruisers were destroyed under the extremely frightened but crazy shooting of the Galactic Republic.
In this battle, Darth Malthael received a notification from the hyperspace outpost, saying that he stopped because of another fluctuation in hyperspace.
The Dawn Principality's fleet and the second battle group of the Death Fleet returned to the outer perimeter of the Annaji planet's defense line and re-defended.
Thirty minutes later, white light flashed violently, and 20 Jaeger-class battlecruisers left the hyperspace jump and appeared in the Annaji galaxy.
The Sixth Battle Group of the Galactic Republic arrives on the battlefield!
The situation on the battlefield began to shift in an extremely unfavorable direction for the Principality of Dawn.
There is no doubt that the Galactic Republic will have seventh, eighth, and even ninth battle groups! But the Principality of Dawn has no more reinforcements.
