10 Jaeger-class cruisers have entered the atmosphere of the Guardian Planet. They will enter several major combat areas on the ground battlefield to suppress the continuously attacking Robot Legion of the Guardian Planet with firepower, so that the Cheer-class can attack
The landing ship landed on the ground and carried the remnants of the Thirteenth Army to retreat.
The entire retreat plan will last three days. In order to ensure the speed of the retreat, the Thirteenth Army will abandon all heavy weapons and equipment and excess supplies. This will be a complete defeat, a defeat that will bring shame to the Republic.
.
Coruscant has been urgently dispatching fleets to support the Thirteenth Army in the direction of the Guardian Planet, because if the blade fleet breaks through the defense line, the fate of the Thirteenth Army will be annihilation! In order to achieve this goal
, Speaker Sheev Palpatine stayed up all night, and even used emergency authority several times to directly issue orders to the Republic fleet. His actions of caring about the country and the people greatly moved many members of the Congress.
But for the Guardian Planet, they did not intend to let the Thirteenth Army leave so easily. Although Tang Yu did not intend to let the Blade Fleet leave either due to his own strategy or to preserve his strength.
Launch a strong attack, but he will definitely dig out a piece of flesh from the Republic!!
The people responsible for this operation are the fanatics, the most elite troops on the Guardian Planet, and the Blood Red Knights!!
Of course, facing the fire suppression of 10 Jaeger-class cruisers, no matter how elite the Zealot troops are, they can't actually do more than the Mechanical Life Legion, but Tang Yu has already made plans!
If the dead Prince Xizor could talk to Governor Billur or Master Yoda, then he would definitely tell them a very important message.
In the battle for the Blade Fleet, the Black Ship, the Predator fleet, never took off a fighter jet from the beginning to the end! Not a single one!!
All the V-wing fighters of the Republic Fleet are now fighting against the Blade Fleet in outer space. The Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser is generally regarded as a kind of gunboat. Each battleship can only carry 12 fighters, but the Blade Fleet is equipped with
Mainly P-38 starfighters, which can be regarded as an unexpected surprise. As a product of Palpatine's first batch of military expansion plans, the Blade Fleet was actually equipped with P-38 starfighters for "politically correct" reasons.
The 38 has excellent speed and firepower. The only drawback is that it is a very expensive fighter!
Coupled with the month-long offensive, the Republic Fleet now only has more than 4,000 V-wing fighters and more than 1,000 Y-wing bombers left. This air force does not dare to do anything in front of the 2,400 P-38 fighters of the Blade Fleet.
They were negligent, so they all withdrew to the outer space battlefield.
The 10 Jaeger-class cruisers that entered the atmosphere were originally suicide missions, so they were even less likely to bring fighter jets!
In fact, this choice is understandable, because the air power of the Guardian Planet has long been disintegrated, so the weak firepower of the V-wing fighter is of little help to ground operations. But who would have thought that the Guardian Planet would be so ruthless?
!I would rather die with millions of robots than hold on to those 200 Predator fighters and never use them!!
Among the three battlefields of Yucheng, Australia and Sahara, before the Zealot troops entered the battlefield, the Machine Life Corps had launched a continuous offensive in order to open a breakthrough.
However, just when the Republic clone army, which was struggling to support itself, thought that although the battle situation was difficult, the worst that could come next would be nothing more than this, a sudden change occurred!!
A series of violent explosions suddenly erupted from the huge body of one of the Jaeger-class cruisers hovering over the Yucheng battlefield! The light blue explosion flames immediately stunned everyone!!
"Proton torpedo! It's a proton torpedo!!"
"Turn on the air radar immediately, where did the torpedoes come from!!"
"Enemy fighter jets found, number 100!!" On the "Sea Monster" Chasseur-class cruiser that was attacked, the screams of the messengers and radar soldiers came one after another.
"Fire with full force from the point defense turret! Request help from the main force of the fleet immediately, we are in urgent need of fighter support!!" the captain shouted loudly, but then there was another violent explosion, the battleship shook violently, and the people on the bridge suddenly staggered around.
An emergency report came from the damage control unit: "The stern deflector shield was penetrated by a torpedo! The No. 4 engine stalled!!"
"Climb up immediately! Notify other warships to move closer to us and form a crossfire!! The turbolaser cannon stops firing and concentrates all its energy supply on the deflector shield and point defense turret!!" the captain shouted loudly.
Almost at the same time, boom boom boom! Continuous explosions kept ringing!! After firing the torpedoes, the Predator fighter continued to use ion cannons to attack the close defense turrets on the cruiser. As the close defense turrets were destroyed one by one, the sea
The anti-aircraft firepower of the Strange cruiser is also getting weaker and weaker!
In war, whether in the ocean or in space, the contradiction between small and flexible fighter planes and huge and bulky battleships always exists. However, as the long-term war patterns show, in front of the fighter group, the giant battleship can only rely on its body
Anti-aircraft guns and laser cannons are absolutely unstoppable! Therefore, battleships need the cover of their own fighter planes in order to fully utilize their super firepower.
So generally speaking, in an interstellar war, in addition to the main gun exchanges between the two sides, the battle between fighter jets is also a key factor in determining victory or defeat. Once a battleship is approached by a group of enemy aircraft, it will be very dangerous! And now the sea monster
The cruiser No. 1 is in an extremely dangerous state!! Because they currently have no fighter cover, and what the Predator fighters are best at is quietly approaching their target!!
"The enemy fighter has lost its target!!"
"That's a stealth fighter!! Oh my God!!" the radar soldier screamed loudly.
I only saw those Predator fighters activating their cloaking devices one after another after launching a wave of attacks, and disappeared under their noses! Only one fighter was shot down during the entire attack!
There were a total of five Hunter-class cruisers assigned to the Yucheng battlefield. After the Kraken was attacked by a stealth fighter and suffered heavy damage, the other cruisers were worried about being attacked, so they raised their altitude and began to move closer. In this way,
There was a brief vacuum period in front of the Republic Army's position!!
At this moment, the fanatic troops had entered the counterattack position! They roared and rushed out!!
