At this time, the Sarabin galaxy, the outer orbit of satellite No. 426.
The fleet of the Confederacy of Independent Systems has suppressed the Republic's defense fleet with its powerful firepower. Because the large battleships have basically been transferred to other places, most of the defense fleets in these places are small boats.
This is mainly because the hyperspace engines of large battleships have higher levels, which means they can reach their destination faster with fewer jumps.
But now, these small warships left behind are no match for the Independent System Confederacy fleet, not to mention that the person commanding this fleet is Severance Tann!
The fleet of the Confederation of Independent Systems seemed to have come alive under the command of Tann. Through their flexible movements and constantly changing group formations, they made the Republic warships lose sight of one thing and the other, always inadvertently causing the Republic's formation to change.
During the artillery battle, it was torn apart.
Then she immediately deployed the Apocalypse-class light cruisers and Revenge-class light destroyers, which were the fastest at sublight speed, to launch an assault, directly wedged into the formation of the Republic fleet, preventing them from looking at each other.
Then, 50 Diamond-class transport cruisers immediately rushed to satellite 426 to launch a landing operation.
Deflection shields, especially deflection shields at the battleship level or even the planet level, actually still have many inconvenient drawbacks. According to different shield generators, the manifestations of these shields will be different. In addition to being divided by functionality
, such as thermal energy shields, particle shields, etc., there are also many types divided by generation methods, including one-way shields, two-way shields and the like.
In order to extend the shield to cover the target, the shield generator itself is not actually protected by the shield. For a fighter jet, the shield generator itself is not powerful enough and cannot cover the entire fighter jet at any time, so
It doesn't matter.
For battleships, many shield generators are built in places that are not easy to be hit in battle.
But for planetary-level shields, this will not work. Because planetary-level shields must be shrouded outside the atmosphere, at least 100 kilometers above the ground. Under such circumstances, the shield built on the ground
Above the generator, a huge funnel-shaped defense hole will be formed, which can be easily exploited by the attacker. (If you are interested, you can take a look at the Gungan shield in "Star Wars: The Phantom Menace".
The production process of the device will be known).
Not to mention that to project the shield energy from the ground to an ultra-high altitude 100 kilometers away, atmospheric interference and additional energy consumption must be considered.
Therefore, planetary shields are often launched through large space stations or natural moons. The advantage of this is that a comprehensive shield can be generated on the planet, and it can ensure that there will never be any damage during the shield projection process.
Disturbance of the planet's atmosphere.
But the disadvantage is that you must invest heavily in defending this shield generator.
And this is the purpose of Severance Tann's battle now!
50 Diamond-class transport cruisers began to land directly against the intensive anti-aircraft firepower on Satellite 426, and an army of 100,000 robots rushed towards the Republic's defense line like a tide!
The Republic's garrison resisted desperately, but they could not withstand Severance Tann's flexible tactics, and their positions fell one by one.
Immediately afterwards, when the outcome of the fleet battle in outer space was decided and the fleet of the Confederacy of Independent Systems began to provide aerial fire support to the ground battle, the Republic's defenders finally fell into a total collapse.
Twelve hours after the attack began, Satellite 426 fell!
With a loud noise, the huge planetary shield generator on satellite 426 was blown up. Sarabin, the most important energy supply planet in the core circle of the Milky Way, finally lost the protection of the planetary shield, as if it had been faded away.
Like a beautiful girl with the last layer of veil...
As ground forces began to reload into the Diamond-class transport cruiser, Severance Tann had returned to the Divinity-class destroyer that served as the flagship of the battle.
"What a wonderful battle! General Tann." A human officer in his 40s and wearing a beige military uniform came up to congratulate him.
Although the military system of the Confederacy of Independent Systems is still relatively chaotic, this beige military uniform shows that this man was promoted from a civilian official to an officer. His thin hair was combed into a middle parting, and he also had a light beard.
Severance Tann looked at this man with some disdain and said calmly: "The fleet set off immediately to cover the small number of Diamond-class transport cruisers that have been loaded to attack the space station outside the planet Sarabin first."
The Confederate officer maintained the utmost respect for Severance Tann, but he still asked out of his duty, "General Tann, what is the purpose of attacking this supply depot? Shouldn't we wait now?
Will the fleet and ground forces rest before launching a general attack on Sarabin?"
"Zian Finnis, I'm embarrassed to call you a general. Can't your poor strategic thinking understand my current actions?" Severance Tann mocked,
"We are now in the core circle of the Republic, and reinforcements from the Republic will arrive in at most 10 hours. Aren't you going to prepare for this?"
"10 hours, how do you know? We should not have such information..." Qian Fenis was obviously very good-tempered, and he did not hide his surprise and ignorance.
Severance Tann glanced at him, but still said: "Within 5 hours of my launch of the offensive, the reinforcements from the Republic did not arrive, which shows that they have no intention of evacuating the alliance planets in the core circle of our Federation of Independent Systems.
The encirclement fleet. So in this case, they must mobilize the fleet from the front line, and the front line closest to the Sarabin system is the Mingban planet. The time to mobilize the troops back from the Mingban planet is between 18 hours and 24 hours."
While watching Zian Fenis sweating profusely as he hurriedly consulted the star map, Severance Tann sarcastically said: "I can't even put the basic deployment and hyperspace channel information on the star map into my head.
Rather than commanding an army, it would be better for you to find a job in an electronics factory on a processing industry planet. By the way, let me tell you that the reason why I want to attack Sarabin's supply depot is because of the latest information collected by Sarabin.
The energy reserves are in the supply station, waiting for transportation. But unfortunately, they were blocked by my fleet."
Following Severance Tann's order, the Diamond-class transport cruiser of the Confederation of Independent Systems rushed directly to one of the supply space stations on the Sarabin planet. Here, the Republic no longer had the fleet to defend itself, and was easily defeated by the Diamond-class transport cruiser.
Login expanded.
Then, a large number of robots began to carry the high-energy energy storage devices stored in the supply station, enough for the Dawn Planet to be used for two full years, back to their own spacecraft. They also pretended to occupy more supply space stations if these space stations were looted.
, then Dawn Planet will not need to generate electricity for at least the next 30 years!
As expected, the plundering behavior of the robot army caused the defense commander of the Sarabin planet to misjudge. He believed that these separatist fleets were here to rob, so he separated his own defense forces and sent reinforcements to several other supply space stations.
