The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1414: Dexen Meat Grinder (5)

Almost in just one hour, more than a dozen spaceports on the planet Onderon were attacked. And without exception, the attackers were all elites with only a few hundred people, but with extremely powerful combat capabilities!

After the initial bomb attack, the defenders of these spaceports fell into chaos, which made them completely unable to stop the attack of these elite squads.

boom! boom! boom! boom! Violent explosions continued to set off in the cargo loading and unloading area inside the space-port, and a large amount of expensive combat materials were blown up. And the purpose of these attackers is very clear - they want to destroy a large number of transport ships of the Galactic Republic!

The materials that are enough to supply millions of troops to fight are definitely not something that their squad of several hundred people can completely destroy, and the tens of thousands of troops guarding and even hundreds of thousands of troops in the city will arrive soon. If they want to destroy the logistics of the army of the Republic can't do it.

However, the goal of the Fourth Army was only to destroy the transport ship, just for a short blank period.

For this purpose, they did not hesitate to sacrifice their lives! After all, all of them have joined the rebirth plan, even if they die in battle, all they will lose is this memory.

The Fourth Legion actually infiltrated the Onderon planet with the help of General Kalani several months ago, and obtained an official identity. According to the battle plan at that time, they were led by Ulu-Ulix, but because the Fourth Army of the Republic suddenly attacked the planet Semirs, Ulu-Ulix was urgently dispatched for reinforcements.

At the same time, Lieutenant General Dai Hongkui, the commander of the armored force, was transferred at the same time. He was also originally planned to lead the Scorpion tank army on the planet Onderon. And after he was transferred away, it was one of his former adjutants who commanded this army. It was also under the leadership of this lieutenant, who was well-informed by Dai Hongkui, that the Scorpion Tank Corps launched successful raids on the Dirkson satellite, successfully destroying a large number of artillery positions of the Galactic Republic, as well as the expensive war machine SPHA- T self-propelled gun.

This battle plan can be said to have been prepared for a long time. The soldiers of the Fourth Army either became porters, factory mechanics, cleaners, or security policemen, lurking in various ways.

Then when the Galactic Republic attacked the city of Izzy, the soldiers of the Fourth Legion all stood still, but mixed into the fleeing crowd and hid further.

After the Galactic Republic occupied Izzy City, they planned to turn Izzy City into a logistics base, all of which were calculated by General Kalani.

If the Republic wants to set up a logistics base, it will definitely have to requisition a large number of local people's industries and hire local people as labor. Therefore, at this time, the soldiers of the Fourth Legion can re-enter the city openly and gain access to the logistics supply base of the Galactic Republic.

Finally, when General Kalani calculated that the Galactic Republic's investment in transport and troops on the Dexen satellite had reached its peak, the Fourth Legion was dispatched!

Soldiers of the Fourth Legion continued to sabotage the spaceport, blowing up supplies, creating obstacles, setting fires everywhere, and taking advantage of the chaos to destroy transport ships.

Spaceports were temporarily paralyzed by their raids and destruction.

And in this short period of time, the nearly 3 million troops on the Dirkson satellite did not receive any supplies!

At the same time, following General Kalani's order, the Army of the Fourth Civilization on the Dirksen satellite also started a counterattack!

More than 10,000 soldiers of the Fourth Civilization Army, under the cover of more than 100,000 combat robots, launched an attack on the assembly point of the Army of the Galactic Republic.

These assembly points are temporary command centers established in several places after the Army of the Republic took control of a part of the city. Facilities including field hospitals and ammunition supply points are also set up in these places. These places are packed with wounded and piled high with ammunition and supplies.

As long as these assembly points are destroyed, the army of the Galactic Republic will be dealt a heavy blow!

And the more deadly thing is yet to come, the Scorpio tanks assembled again, and the remaining about 100 tanks launched an attack on the Galactic Republic and several major landing points outside the city!

General Kalani pinpointed the timing of this counterattack too accurately!

Physically, the Army of the Galactic Republic has been engaged in high-intensity battles on Planet Dexen for several days. Even though troops have been rotating, the bodies of these troops are no longer in the best condition. And one of the most important reasons is the air quality!

After Wilhuff-Tarkin's previous orbital bombing of the Dexen satellite and the incessant bombing after the landing operation began, the atmosphere of the Dexen satellite has been almost destroyed, and the air is full of harmful gases . Soldiers in the Galactic Republic must wear respirators to go out, but how good are the respirators issued to millions of soldiers? It would be nice to be able to keep people from being poisoned to death.

Under such circumstances, the status of the Republic Army is further reduced.

Psychologically speaking, Wilhof Tarkin's previous acquiescence and indulgence to the Republic Army was actually to maintain the morale of this motley army. He originally thought that the battle would be over in just a few days, so it was acceptable to act recklessly during these few days, as long as it wasn't too much, anyway, after these few days, everything would return to order.

However, this way of drinking poison to quench thirst became a complete farce after the coup broke out on the planet Onderon and King Ramses Dundup overthrew the Saw-Gerrera regime and regained the throne.

Under King Dundup's very tough countermeasures, the Army of the Republic had to restrain itself. After all, Dundup had brought this matter to the parliament. If it was left alone, it would have a great impact on Tarkin's political reputation.

But for the soldiers of the Republic Army, this means that after they return from the meat ground of the Dirksen satellite, they will face bland food, crowded tents, strict military discipline, and even pay for a prostitute. No way - almost all the local residents of the planet Onderon refused to serve the soldiers of the Republic.

This has also lowered the psychology and morale of the Republic Army.

Finally, there is the slackness of the commander.

Previously, the steel city of the Deksen satellite relied on the resolute resistance of the city's shield to cause heavy losses to the Republic's army, with more than one million casualties, which gave a great psychological shadow to the commanders at all levels of the Galactic Republic.

Therefore, after the city shield was finally breached, all the commanders breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the battle would be easier. And the fact is the same. The defenders of the City of Steel retreated again and again, giving up a large area of ​​the city, which made them feel that they had the chance to win.

That's why General Kalani asked his adjutant Liu Zhichao to keep an eye on the number of transport ships taking off and landing and the number of troops in the Galactic Republic. When both of them reach their peak, that is when the commander of the Republic wants to complete his work and start pressing the biggest trump card!

But the fact is that after giving up a large area of ​​the city, the supply of the Republic troops began to be tight. In the case of airdrops, the complex environment of the city and the ubiquitous cold guns make the transport ships afraid to land casually. In the case of ground, the difficulty of replenishment has also increased a lot because the distance has been extended.

So at the best time when the army of the Republic was at its lowest point both physically and mentally, and the commander was starting to relax and be eager for success, General Kalani launched a counterattack!

These soldiers of the Fourth Civilization Army recharge their batteries and fight against the enemy. They have endured it for a long time!

Under the ebb and flow, the army of the Galactic Republic was almost defeated at the touch of a finger, and was beaten to pieces in several places.

In order to hold the line, Republic commanders had to fall back, abandoning large swathes of the captured urban areas.

But the Fourth Civilization Army's attack was extremely violent. They didn't even care about the flanks, whether they went deep alone or not, they just kept advancing and breaking through!

Inside the city of steel, there are corpses and wreckage left after the fierce fighting between the two sides.

Although the Galactic Republic currently has nearly 3 million troops on the frontline of the Dirksen Satellite, which is more than six times the number of the Fourth Civilization Army that launched a counterattack, the Republic's army is scattered throughout the frontline around the city, and the strength of a single direction is not large. not much.

After the Fourth Civilization launched a counterattack, the Army of the Republic was in a hurry, and almost all positions were running around for a while. When the commander of the Republic finally organized several quick-reaction troops to stop the Fourth Civilization Army, it was already two hours later.

In just two hours, the army casualties of the Galactic Republic exceeded 400,000! But at the same time, the separatist robot army also lost a lot.

At the same time, under the attack of the Scorpion tanks, two landing sites of the Republic were finally destroyed.

The rebel commander finally prevented the counterattacking forces from wreaking havoc by deploying a large number of fighter jets to bombard the counterattacking Separatist forces indiscriminately.

Under the bombing of the Air Force, the more than 100 Scorpio tanks were finally wiped out, and Lieutenant General Dai Hongkui's adjutant died heroically.

The Army of the Fourth Civilization broke into pieces again, entered the buildings and factories in the City of Steel, and after reoccupying these buildings, prepared to use their lives to fight the Galactic Republic to the end!

That's right, the planet Onderon is doomed to be impossible to defend, so the only requirement that the Fourth Civilization has for the troops on this planet is to delay the battle as much as possible and kill as many Republic troops as possible!

All the soldiers of the Fourth Civilization who went to the planet Onderon did not expect to come back alive! They left a suicide note, and those who are willing to participate in the rebirth plan will also be given the opportunity to participate in the rebirth plan and join the Fourth Legion.

It took the Galactic Republic almost a whole day to recover from this sudden counterattack.

The spaceport on the planet Onderon was recaptured, the fire was extinguished, the damaged cargo was disposed of, the takeoff and landing platform and maintenance platform were re-worked, and the transport ship took off again.

Those Fourth Legion fighters who raided and destroyed the spaceport, under the siege of hundreds of times the enemy, all fought to the last man. But the soldiers and staff they killed, and the cargo and supplies they destroyed, are countless! Even after this number was sent to Wilhuff Tarkin, he was furious on the spot, his gentlemanly demeanor disappeared, and he started cursing directly on the bridge.

The situation on the Dexen satellite is even more serious!

Nearly 3 million troops suffered a sudden counterattack, and then were completely defeated. They finally reorganized to stabilize the front line and resist the continued advance of the fourth civilization army.

After this chaos, the army of the Republic was disrupted, a large amount of combat materials were lost and destroyed, and the wounded from the battle were everywhere, and it was too late to take them back one by one.

And because the space port of the planet Onderon was temporarily paralyzed, there was a short window of time. During this window period, no transport ships took off and landed between Planet Onderon and Dexen Satellite!

However, the Army of the Republic on the Deksen satellite suffered heavy losses, with more than one-third of its staff reduced. They urgently need a lot of ammunition and supplies, as well as food, ammunition and other items. What is more urgently needed is to send a large number of wounded away!

The environment of the Dirksen satellite has been completely destroyed. If these wounded are left here for too long, the air here alone can kill them!

So after quelling the sabotage of the spaceport on the Onderon planet and repelling the counterattack of the separatist army on the Derkson satellite, Governor Wilhof Tarkin issued an order to immediately concentrate all transport ships to Derksen satellite! Be sure to help the army on the satellite complete reorganization and supplies as quickly as possible, and resume the offensive as soon as possible!

Under his command, a large number of transport ships took off and flew towards the Dirksen satellite in dense numbers.

At the same time, he also ordered to send three Cheer-class assault landing ships into the atmosphere of the Dirksen satellite to reinforce the battle!

At the same time, Dr. Zhang Jiarui was wearing a black vest in the secret hangar platform on the lower floor of the command center on the Dirksen satellite, showing muscles that exploded. He took out a pair of sunglasses and put them on as he walked.

At this moment, his heart was also icy cold!

He could clearly see everything that happened after the Galactic Republic occupied the city of Izzy through the intelligence personnel on the planet! He hated the various crimes committed by the army of the Republic and So-Gerrera, and he hated the Galactic Republic beyond measure.

This time, he will have no mercy!

Dr. Zhang Jiarui came under a huge gantry on the hangar platform, and here, parked an extremely huge steel behemoth!

With a height of 20 meters, Zhang Jiarui, a muscular man with a height of nearly 1.9 meters, is as small as a kitten standing in front of an elephant!

Thor Mech! ! !

Moreover, this Thor mecha has undergone a lot of modifications, and its appearance is very different. The most obvious change is that on the back of Thor's mecha, the original Punisher cannon has been dismantled, and what is now installed here is a spherical device.

General Kalani's voice also came from the communication, "This is our last card, after playing it, let's leave while in chaos."

A cruel smile emerged from the corner of Zhang Jiarui's steel-like mouth. He gave a thumbs up and said, "No problem! Let me give the Galactic Republic the heaviest blow!"
