The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1118. Eriadu Air Battle (6)

"So, what's your opinion? Master Dover, Master Gayette." Admiral Theoster asked the two Jedi masters.

"From a strategic point of view, if the Eliadu galaxy cannot be reintroduced into the jurisdiction of the Republic, and the transportation hub of the Rhima trade route and Hydia waterway is blocked by this galaxy, then it is equivalent to losing the entire western region." Gaye said. Master Te said.

"But I have a very bad premonition about this battle." The Pantora female Jedi Master Dover shook her head.

"I have a very strong premonition, but we still have to take the initiative to attack." Master Gayette said, "During the meeting before leaving, Mr. Quarter Jr., the representative of Quarter Power Dock, said that he would rather lose these two ships. Commander II must also test the limits of the Xuanwu."

"Although I don't want to admit it, it does make sense." Master Dover sighed, "If we keep unknown about the performance of the Xuanwu, we will pay even heavier losses."

Admiral Sioster nodded, and said to the staff officer: "Sort out the strategy with the highest probability of winning relatively, we use high-speed warships to involve the opponent's formation, and then fight decisively in a relatively wide range! Not to Xuanwu Chance to protect the entire fleet!"

"Move the flagship to your original battleship." Master Dover said, "These two dreadnoughts may never have the chance to return to Coruscant..."

...

21BBY, early morning of September 13th.

The fleet of the Galactic Republic arrived at the outer orbit of the planet Eliadu after several hours of sublight speed voyage, and confronted the Fourth Civilization Fleet at a distance.

Then the Republic Fleet attacked first!

Their fleet is divided into four groups, rushing straight from four directions in a claw formation, and two Commander II-class dreadnought ships are in the center!

All the hangar platforms of the Jaeger-class battlecruisers were deployed, and the first batch of more than 8,000 fighter jets took off in a dense crowd!

When the distance between the two sides was less than 1 light minute, the main guns installed on the dome structure of the two Commander II dreadnoughts opened fire brazenly! The extremely powerful super-heavy turbo laser cannon fired a turbo laser beam containing powerful energy, directly hitting a Cole-class battlecruiser of the Fourth Civilization!

This Cole-class battlecruiser in perfect condition was hit directly before turning around!

The powerful turbo laser beam instantly blew up the Cole class to pieces! None of the 2,500 crew members on the battleship survived!

At this time, Xuanwu's fleet shield system had just been activated, and a light green light curtain enveloped every battleship in the Fourth Civilization Fleet.

Due to insufficient intelligence, General Ling misjudged the engagement distance and recharge time of the Republic fleet, causing the Xuanwu to be destroyed by a Cole-class before the fleet shield system was activated.

"You bastard! You got slapped!" General Ling slapped the console hard.

By the way, because it is often used as an object of anger, the console rubber liner just launched by Higra Aerospace Group is selling well.

"General, the power and range of the opponent's main gun far exceed that of the Xuanwu," said a technician.

The Commander II-class dreadnought directly sank a Cole-class with two shells, which greatly encouraged the Republic fleet. Immediately afterwards, other warships also opened fire one after another, and countless turbo lasers and blast energy beams were launched.

The two fleets once again engaged in a full-scale battle!

The powerful firepower of the Republic Fleet is still the same as last time, unable to shake the Fourth Civilization Fleet protected by the shield of the Xuanwu Fleet.

With the protection of this green light curtain, the Cole-class battlecruiser can even continue to withstand the concentrated attacks of multiple Jaeger-class ships from the Republic and turn back calmly, withdrawing to the rear and recirculating the shield before its shield is damaged.

In addition, the nine Dunov-class battlecruisers are constantly replenishing the shield capacitors of those battleships under concentrated attack, giving them more opportunities to retreat.

The Galactic Republic fleet began to maneuver. After the battle broke out, they dispersed in four directions after a little contact, and continued to move forward, trying to cross the tight formation of the Fourth Civilization Fleet and rush towards the direction of the planet Eriadu.

They tried to use this method to turn some of the Fourth Civilization warships to rescue the planet Eliadu, thus leaving the protection of the Xuanwu.

And the 8,000 fighter jets that took off in the first batch of the Republic also guarded their own warships at all times, and did not rush to attack rashly.

Because under the protection of the fleet shield, even battleships cannot break through the opponent's defense, let alone fighter jets.

The only luck is that the fighter jets of the Fourth Civilization can't fit the receiving device, so the team building shield can't take effect on the fighter jets, otherwise, this will make people even more desperate!

But even so, the fleet shield system of the Xuanwu is basically equivalent to breaking at least half of the deterrence of the fighter group that the Republic is proud of!

But the Fourth Civilization Fleet remained unmoved, maintaining a dense formation, fighting under the protection of the fleet's shields, not giving the Republic Fleet a chance at all.

The two Commander II-class dreadnoughts of the Republic Fleet are also fully fired. Their engines are 200 times more powerful than the Jaeger-class, and the power of the main guns is naturally terrifying.

Even if the Hunter level is in front of the Commander II level, it is the result of two shots in seconds!

Unlike the Commander-class dreadnoughts, which were born in a peaceful era and restricted by the treaty of Rusan’s reforms, they are cautious everywhere. The Commander II is a terrifying weapon built from the beginning in the direction of destructive war weapons!

The huge 8,000-meter-long hull also gave the engineers of the Kuat Power Dockyard space to install even larger engines, but they didn't think this was enough, and they also enlarged the middle and rear sections of the battleship to become a 1,200-meter-diameter ship. The dome makes the warship look ugly like a hunchback, but it can generate more powerful energy!

Under the continuous bombardment of the Commander II, even with the protection of the shield of the Xuanwu fleet, another Cole-class battlecruiser was destroyed!

To make matters worse, there was also a Dunov-class battlecruiser that was hit by a Commander II-class shot, and the broken structure of the shield was damaged, and it was fleeing in a hurry.

At the same time, the firepower of other warships of the Fourth Civilization poured in, but they couldn't effectively damage them.

Two Commander II-class dreadnoughts rushed into the Fourth Civilization Fleet with such force, invincible!

The other warships of the Republic cooperate with a large number of fighter jets to surround the dense formation of the Fourth Civilization Fleet in a dispersed formation, and their actions are very flexible. As long as they are counterattacked by the opponent, they will immediately retreat to attract the opponent to come to pursue them.

The meaning of Admiral Theoster is obvious, aren't you a tortoise shell? Then consume it slowly! Let's see when you get out of it!
