The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

998. Satellite Falls (Part 1)

Eliadu satellite, more than an hour ago.

The battle of Karina crater has completely collapsed, the Galactic Republic can no longer support its defense line, the energy control center built on the ridge of the crater is about to fall, and the nearest separatist army is less than one kilometer away!

In order to prevent the separatists from using the power generation facilities here to cause huge damage after occupying the control center, the commander adopted an emergency shutdown strategy, and all power generation units stopped working almost at the same time.

At the same time, the outer line of defense of the planetary shield generator of the Eliadu satellite fell into darkness in an instant! The weapon system is offline, the enemy tracking system is offline, the sensor is offline, and the shield barrier is offline!

But just 2 minutes later, backup power was activated and basic power began to be restored. With the gradual start of the backup generator set, the power supply is getting higher and higher, and each system starts to restart one by one. It is estimated that it will take an hour for the backup power supply to reach its maximum power.

At the same time, the garrison on the outer defense line of the shield generator also immediately entered the combat state according to the regulations, and entered the combat position. All the searchlights and sensors with reserve power were moved to the outermost perimeter of the defense line, illuminating the surroundings like daytime.

However, at this moment, their line of defense has been attacked!

There was no warning, no detection, no warning, and that was it, they were attacked!

boom! boom! boom!

Crisp gunshots kept ringing out from the darkness, the searchlights and sensor antennas on the defense line were constantly being destroyed by sniper rifles, and in the darkness, there seemed to be countless faint figures attacking!

Moreover, the army that launched the attack was like a ghost, its movements were erratic, and it was still impossible to grasp their true location.

But the live sniper ammunition constantly shooting out of the darkness is real!

The corpses of comrades whose heads were shot by bullets are real!

"Someone attacked!! Enemy attack!"

"Quick, point to..." Poof! The sound of a head exploding.

"Where are they? I can't see them at all!"

"Ahhhhh!!!"

Soldiers keep getting killed, but they don't even see the enemy anywhere!

A Republic soldier grabbed the handle of the E-WEB heavy-duty machine guns that was set up, and fired crazy at the darkness.

At this time, a strange language came from behind, and he turned his head suddenly, only to see the messy corpses of other members of his heavy machine gun team lying behind him!

Suddenly, a big cold hand grabbed the top of his head and slowly turned his head around.

The soldier of the Republic only saw that this was a skinny race, about 1.8 meters tall, wearing a tattered and weather-beaten cloak, and the sniper rifle in his hand was wrapped in an oil-soaked dark green cloth strip, and what was even more frightening was , on his face, wearing a ferocious animal bone mask! Two bloodstains were drawn at the position of the eyes.

Kali people!

An expert in guerrilla warfare and raid warfare!

Ling Liang brought 30,000 Kali people! And these people are all veterans who participated in the brutal war with the Yamri that just ended 8 years ago and lasted for decades!

After that war and the subsequent economic sanctions imposed by the Galactic Republic, the planet Kali had already collapsed economically, although the fourth civilization helped them carry out a series of reconstruction work. However, the destruction of the Kali planet was too complete, and it was impossible for Tang Xiao to confess the Kali people as his great-grandfather and give them what they wanted, so he hired these Kali veterans to join the army, giving them the opportunity to earn subsidies, and lost Kali planet for labor is also highly compensated.

Of course, most of these compensations will be returned to the fourth civilization through the development of those reconstruction projects, but after such a turn, the economy of Planet Kali is finally operating.

At the beginning of the war, these Kali people had already broken up and lurked nearby. They were extremely tough both physically and mentally, and even lurked for three days without eating or drinking!

It was the defenders of the Galactic Republic who panicked when they attacked.

Because they don't know where the enemy comes from!

In fact...the enemy is right under their feet.

After the power outage in the direction of Karina Crater, although it is very fast to start the backup power supply, the backup power supply also needs to be warmed up, and it takes an hour to reach the maximum power generation.

Taking advantage of the lack of heavy defensive weapons on this line of defense, the Kali people launched a surprise attack!

The outer defense line was quickly breached, and the defenders of the Republic began to retreat towards the second and third defense lines in the rear like a tide, preparing to reorganize the defense organization.

However, since the attack has already started, how could it be just like this!

Less than 20 minutes after the start of the war, the defenders of the Galactic Republic were horrified to find that all communications had been cut off!

The soldiers of the Republic who lost their unified command could only stay in their original positions and organize defenses on the spot, but in this way, they could not make full use of the depth of their positions.

Ten minutes later, the communication was restored, but there was no news from the headquarters, only an order to let them continue to shrink the line of defense.

At this moment, the 100,000 troops still guarding the line of defense did not realize what this interruption of communication meant.

It is impossible for them to know that in the command center next to the planetary shield generator, there is already an M-6 executioner pistol on the commander's forehead!

In the darkness where the lights had just been turned off, a mysterious force had already controlled the entire command center within 10 minutes.

In the darkness, those mysterious soldiers were talking in an unfamiliar and fast-speaking language, and then switched to the same fast-speaking Galactic Common Language and said: "Activate the minimum altitude of the planetary shield."

Salari special forces!

"...Activate the planetary shield, the lowest altitude." The commander gave an order with a pale face.

The Eriadu satellite is equipped with a relatively cheap two-way shield, which means that after the shield is deployed, it cannot get out or in. Therefore, when the orbital defense system on the planet is firing, the shield in the corresponding direction needs to be temporarily closed.

At the same time, in order to facilitate coping with different situations, the planetary shield can also be opened at different heights. The lowest altitude is 5,000 meters from the ground. If it is lower, it will affect the surface of the planet. After all, the planetary shield is also a thing that contains extremely powerful energy.

Then, the Salarian coldly issued a startling command to the commander, "Request all fighter units on the planet to launch reinforcements."

The commander struggled violently and roared loudly, "Impossible!! This is impossible! Absolutely! You kill me, kill me!!"

But this member of the Salari special service unit was not angry. Another soldier immediately grabbed the signal soldier and shot a staff member in the head in front of him!

The communicator was almost scared to pee, and immediately turned on the communication device and sent out the command.

"NO! STOP! You can't do this! You should know what this means!! STOP! STOP!!!" the Republic Commander yelled, but to no avail.

The communicator has sent out the order.

Soon, air force bases all over the satellite took off fighter jets to prepare for reinforcements.

At this moment, disaster strikes!
