The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1442、Escape from birth

At this moment, on the periphery of Planet Dorin, the situation of the Galactic Republic fleet is already in jeopardy. This fleet consisting of 20 Jaeger-class battlecruisers and 33 Arquitens-class light cruisers has completely fallen into a passive position.

This fleet is the Second Squadron of the Seventh Army of the Galactic Republic. Since the capital of the Eighth Army of the Republic, the planet Odd-Mantel, was captured and Governor Fan Ke fled, the Eighth Army of the Republic has been declared destroyed.

But the Eighth Army actually only lost a few core planets including the Ord-Mantel planet. In the vast jurisdiction of the Eighth Army, there are still a large number of areas that still belong to the jurisdiction of the Galactic Republic.

Therefore, the Supreme Strategic Command of the Galactic Republic made adjustments to the Eighth Army, assigned all the remaining jurisdictions of the Eighth Army to the Seventh Army, and asked the Seventh Army to adjust the defense area as soon as possible to deal with the invasion of the Geth.

The Second Squadron of the Seventh Army was actually allocated from the remaining forces of the Eighth Army and reorganized. The commander of the fleet is still Admiral Eureka, and Gilad Perrine is naturally among them.

The Second Squadron was originally ordered to reinforce the Dorin planet that was attacked by the Geths. They transported more than 40,000 clone soldiers to reinforce them and intercept the Geths' fleet outside the planet.

Those clone troopers are all clone troopers of the Kamino version. Although the Kamino clone troopers have withdrawn from active service in other theaters of the Galactic Republic, several legions in the northern part of the galaxy where the Geths are raging The Republic applied to retain the establishment of clone troopers to fight against the fearsome geth army.

The Supreme Strategic Command of the Republic agreed.

That's why a clone army of as many as 40,000 people was deployed on the battlefield of Planet Dolin. If it was in the past, this behavior could be called a luxury!

However, after the Second Squadron of the Seventh Army arrived on Planet Dolin, they realized that the enemy they faced was not simple!

The geth fleets outnumber them, but are generally extremely small. Among them, there are 18 300-meter-level geth cruisers, about 70 other 150-meter-level geth destroyers, and more than 50 80-meter-level geth frigates.

If under normal circumstances, a fleet composed of small and medium-sized warships wants to challenge a fleet of 20 kilometer-class battleships under guarantee, it will be completely dead.

But in the Geth fleet, the size of the battleship has a completely different meaning.

With no need for any living facilities, life-support equipment, or built-in artificial gravity generators, the entire geth battleship is a single geth individual! It's just that the collection of this Geth individual is extremely huge, consisting of tens of thousands of Geth units, so that it can achieve enough computing power to control its own battleship-sized body.

So in this case, the geth battleship has four things almost from the beginning to the end - armor, energy, weapons, engines, and none of the other superfluous things. This also makes the ion cannon fired by the Geth battleship very powerful. For a battleship of the 300-meter class, the artillery fire is completely comparable to that of the Jaeger class!

At the same time, the handling performance of these geth warships, including acceleration, deceleration, and steering performance, far exceeds that of ordinary warships, which endows them with extremely terrifying maneuverability.

So on the battlefield, this Geth fleet used its own mobility and flexibility to adopt a strategy of dividing, encircling, and destroying the Republic fleet. They have formed a numerical advantage in every part of the battlefield, biting the lone Republic warships like locusts.

The reason why the flagship of the Second Squadron, the Jaeger-class battlecruiser Mingxing, was besieged by the Geth warships and almost destroyed was the result of such a battle situation.

And now, Gilad Pellaeon, the interim acting commander of the Second Squadron, was standing in front of the communicator, and said seriously: "If you still want to survive, immediately abandon all enemy targets in front of you and report to me. Ships move closer! We must form a dense formation with a distance of no more than 200 meters!"

"The distance is no more than 200 meters? Do you know what you are talking about, you hairless boy? According to the combat rules, the safe distance between each warship in combat state should be kept at more than 10 kilometers!" In the communication Someone questioned.

"This is our last chance! I have no time to explain to you! I order you to execute the order as the acting commander! Any disobedience will be arrested on the spot, and the deputy captain will take over the command!" Gilad Pai Ren said sharply.

It has been more than two years since the outbreak of the war, and the military of the Galactic Republic is also growing. The current military hierarchy of the Republic is very strict, and any behavior that disobeys military orders is strictly prohibited.

Therefore, although there were many reluctances, the warships of the Second Squadron still did so. Battleships turned forcibly against the gunfire of the Geth battleships and flew towards the flagship Mingxing.

"All ships follow my instructions! Take positions according to the coordinates I gave! There must be no mistakes!" Gilad Perrine has already entered the state. He is now standing in front of the holographic combat star map, and the staff team next to him is flying The quantum computer is used to calculate the position of each battleship according to Pellaeon's requirements.

At the time of the communication just now, the bridge of the battleship Mingxing has resumed operation. With the cooperation of the efficient damage control department and the medical department, the injured have been treated, and the corpses and wreckage have been cleaned up. More importantly, Substitutes are in place.

The addition of substitute personnel allowed the various departments of the warship to operate again, which was also an important guarantee for Gilad Perreen to launch his own combat command.

Under his command, the remaining battleships of the Second Squadron began to move closer together, and then formed a very dense spherical formation with the Mingxing as the core.

Not only that, the artillery fire of each battleship in the formation only needs to be responsible for a very narrow area, ensuring that the artillery fire is extremely concentrated and can cover every corner.

And the remaining fighter formations also surrounded the fleet, completely turning the entire fleet into a hedgehog!

And this kind of formation can offset the powerful maneuverability of the Geth warships to the greatest extent, and can maximize the firepower advantage of their warships.

But the shortcomings are also obvious-not to mention that the dense formation is prone to collisions. Under such a formation, the Republic battleship almost completely gave up its own mobility. Therefore, Geth warships don't need to aim, they just need to fire all their firepower in this direction.

Then, Gilad-Pellaeon issued the second command, "All warship personnel, prepare for zero gravity! After 10 minutes, turn off the artificial gravity system! Then proceed to the coordinates I gave!"

After someone saw the coordinates, they immediately roared in the communication, "Are you crazy? That place is a black hole!!"

Thanks to the stubborn Slytherin for the reward of 500 starting coins! !
