The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1584 , the storm is coming, the sky is full of fire

The planet Fieda, the city of Draffa.

Boom~~! ! Boom~~~! ! ! Explosions continued to sound, exploding on the main road of the city, and the countless corpse puppets were smashed under the powerful firepower.

The LAAT/I assault transports descended with a swarm of clone troopers, and without a word they immediately began moving into position.

On all the main passages, the gangsters and mercenary groups have already built a line of defense with cars and sundries, and those rich and powerful people also recruited construction teams to further expand these lines of defense with construction machinery such as bulldozers. reinforcement.

For ordinary corpse puppets, this is already an insurmountable obstacle.

So when the clone troopers started to land, those gangsters and mercenaries thought they had taken control of the situation, but they didn't show any kindness to the clone troopers who came to help, some even threatened to kill them all together with the corpse puppets.

It's just that after all, these gangsters are still a little self-aware, and they dare not really conflict with these clone soldiers who have made a name for themselves on the battlefield of the galaxy.

boom! boom! boom! ! The addition of the regular army's firepower immediately caused the entire city to be bombarded with artillery fire. Under the joint strike of the AV-7 self-propelled artillery and the Y-wing bomber, those corpse puppets could not form an effective organization at all and were blown to pieces.

Almost in just a few tens of minutes, hundreds of thousands of corpse puppets were wiped out in the bombing.

Seeing this scene, those gangsters, smugglers, and mercenaries did not want to continue to join the army of the Galactic Republic, so they withdrew from the front line and retreated towards the planetary capital Chinesti City.

These lawless guys naturally understand that even if the geth attack is repelled this time, it is impossible for the army of the Galactic Republic to leave again.

In other words, their days are over.

However, at this moment, the action patterns of those corpse puppets suddenly changed! All the corpse puppets hid in the buildings one after another, no longer attacking directly!

"Bastard! These puppets are all hiding!" A clone soldier looked at the battle situation in the distance with a telescope and cursed angrily.

The clone commander with a blue armband on the battle armor also looked at the situation in the city with a telescope, and his tone became solemn, "At least half of the city of Draffa has fallen. Once these corpse puppets hide like this, within a few months we will It's hard to actually clean them up. Just evacuate as many civilians as possible and blow up the whole city."

"I'm just worried they have other plans. Don't forget, the geth hasn't been seen until now," the clone trooper said.

"What about the other directions?" the clone commander asked.

"The engineering team going to the capital Chinesti City to build a defense line was blocked. Those people didn't want us to start construction in the city, and they didn't want to move out of their homes. They called our action an invasion." The clone soldiers were somewhat Reluctantly said.

"Where is the blocking force?"

"They have already controlled the town, and the operation is relatively smooth. The fuel depot has stored more than 4,000 tons of fuel. The engineering team is building a 5 to 10-kilometer wide combustion zone. As long as they find more zombies in action, then they will The fuel will be detonated immediately to block the zombie attack." The clone soldier said, "It's just that the teams that went to find the Jeski base haven't responded yet."

"Well... I have a very bad feeling." The clone commander said solemnly, "Report to the fleet. If it really doesn't work, just conduct low-intensity orbital bombing of the general area. Take the cheerer-class assault The landing ship is transferred."

"I don't think General Henderson would take the risk of using the Cheer-class. After all, no one knows what's hidden in the mountains and jungles." The clone soldier said.

At this time, the signal soldier walked over quickly and said: "Sir! There are more geth warships in the outer orbit of the planet! General Henderson led the fleet to intercept! He asked us to be ready in case there is something else in the geth Do something else!"

"Damn it! Geth really have other plans!" The clone commander cursed, "Notify all units, further strengthen the defense, and organize the front line! Prepare for battle at any time!"

However, before he finished his sentence, he saw a sudden red light in the distance almost igniting the entire sky!

After a few seconds, boom! boom! boom! ! A series of violent explosions came, and even the ground shook!

"It's the interdiction force! They detonated the fuel warehouse!" Seeing this, the communications soldier quickly picked up the communicator and started calling, "The interdiction force! This is the 204th Legion, please answer!! Report your situation immediately!"

However, there was only a burst of noisy voices in the communication. It seemed that someone was talking, but it was covered by the continuous explosions, and it was impossible to hear what was being said.

"Units ready for battle!! It's time for the Geth to attack!" the clone commander shouted.

All I could see in the sky were two Cheer-class assault landing ships that began to lower their altitude, turned on the super-powerful searchlights on the belly of the battleships, and shone in the direction of the blocking troops.

However, there was only a sea of ​​flames there, and nothing could be seen clearly! And because there are friendly troops in that direction, the Cheerers dare not fire rashly.

The battleship took off a formation of fighter jets and wanted to check the situation.

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

Hundreds of geth fighters suddenly appeared from the sky, and they flew viciously towards the fighter formation of the Republic!

"Bastard! It's a geth fighter!"

"They were hiding in the woods before!"

"Attack! Attack! Kill them!"

boom! boom! ! A Republic V-19 Riptide light fighter was hit by an ion cannon during a dogfight, and instantly exploded into a ball of fire.

At the same time, the near-defense artillery fire on the cheerer class also began to fire! The sky was suddenly filled with lasers and missiles!

However, this group of geth fighters is very fierce. Their flight performance and reaction speed directly crushed the pilots of the Republic, and shot down all the V-19 fighters in this formation in just a few minutes! Then pounce on the Cheers like a swarm of wasps!

It's not over yet, there are even several tens of meters long geth frigates joining the battle!

After being hit by dozens of powerful ion cannons on the shield, the two Cheers-class assault landing ships had to start climbing to avoid fighting at ultra-low altitudes.

At the same time, the voice of the Republic Fleet also came from the communication, 【...We have detected a Geth frigate entering the planet's atmosphere! They were previously hidden among the wreckage of warships in outer orbit! We have sent fighter formations to support! hold onto! 】
