The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

511. The Battle of Geonosis (1)

When the artillery fire hit, 212 Jedi fighters scattered instantly. These fighters were all Delta-6 or Delta-7 fighters, and many of them had been modified by those Jedi fighters according to their own habits, with excellent performance.

Coupled with the terrible predictive ability of the Jedi Knights, it is impossible for this level of firepower to hit them.

In the next instant, 1,700 Nantex fighters collided with more than 200 Jedi fighters, and countless laser beams and blaster beams instantly lit up the dark universe.

Thousands of rays of light were continuously emitted with the energy of death, and then countless fireballs exploded in the dark and cold universe!

It was the flames of hundreds of Nantex fighter jets exploding in the Geonosian defense force, and not a single one belonging to the Jedi Knights!

The fighter jets driven by the Jedi Knights are flying at an acceleration of more than 500G in the open space, and no fire control system can lock them! Even some powerful Jedi masters can maximize the acceleration performance of fighter jets, reaching 3000~3500G acceleration!

You must know that even the most advanced fire control system among the warships produced by Kuat Power Dockyard can only lock the target under the acceleration of 100G for complex maneuvers at most, but in fact, this is enough in most cases. Because it is impossible for ordinary biological pilots to react at this speed, even with the protection of the most advanced protective clothing and buffer system, these pilots will also bear unimaginable pressure when turning at extremely high speeds.

But a Jedi can do it, and it's dozens of times stronger than an ordinary pilot!

1,700 Nantex fighter jets could not stop the fleet of Jedi Knights at all, and at this moment, white light flickered on the other side of the planet, and 10 huge figures escaped from the hyperspace channel and came to the planet Geonosis!

10 Generosity-class communication frigates!

This is the fleet dispatched by General Grievous from the attacking direction of Ruusan!

On the bridge of a Rucklehook-class battleship, Admiral Grievous yelled into the comms: "Trabo! Put your fleet on top! Keep the Jedi out of the way of Rucklehook over here. class battleship!"

"Yes!" A Neimoidian general quickly agreed, and then commanded the fleet to rush in the direction of the Jedi Knights.

The firepower of the ten 825-meter-long Generosity-class communication frigates is much stronger than that of the Geonosis cruisers. They also took off more than 300 vulture robot fighters to join the battle in the first place.

General Grievous looked at the battlefield projected on the holographic star map in front of him, and he found that even so, their fleet could not resist the powerful Jedi knights.

A Geonosis cruiser was approached from behind by several Jedi fighter jets during the melee, and several proton torpedoes directly penetrated the weak parts of the shield and exploded in the engine!

Following a series of explosions, the cruiser was instantly blown into several sections!

Boom! General Grievous punched the console in front of him with a fierce look in his eyes. He connected to another communication and shouted angrily, "Captain Kavik-Toss! It's time for your mercenary group to enter the field!"

"Leave it to me! Just 200 Jedi Knights, I'll take care of it!" A middle-aged human with a fierce face and a scar on his face replied viciously. He waved his hand back and said loudly: "Let's go! Sabos Brothers of the warband! Kill the Jedi Knights and pay a high price!!"

"Oh!!!!" There was a howl like ghost crying and wolf howling in the communication.

Three blue and white armored warships rushed out from behind the asteroid belt on the planet Geonosis. These three warships have catamaran hulls, heavy armor and more than 30 turrets. They are about 800 meters long and have undergone extensive modifications. , it is no longer possible to distinguish the original warship model.

The Sabos Chapter is one of the most powerful mercenary groups in the galaxy, and has been hired by Earl Dooku to fight for Separatism. They are headed by Captain Kawik-Toss, and all the mercenaries under him are vicious and blood-licking people, and they have experienced many battles and are extremely powerful.

After the three Sabos destroyers joined the battle, more than 50 fighter jets were released immediately. However, the pilots of the Sabos Chapter had long been observing the combat methods of the Jedi fighters. Their fighters did not rush out to fight, but stayed within the near-fire range of the battleship and waited for an opportunity.

When it was found that there was a Jedi fighter jet surrounded by a large number of aircraft groups, it rushed over suddenly, pressing the last straw to the brave Jedi warrior.

Master Windu, who was flying a Delta-7 fighter jet, also felt a sharp increase in pressure. The constant arrival of warships made the Jedi Knights more and more stressed. More than a dozen fighter jets of the Jedi Knights had been shot down.

He decisively issued an order, "Everyone! Don't be entangled in outer space, we will enter the atmosphere immediately! Destroy the orbital defense cannon on the planet Geonosis!!"

During the battle, Master Windu has scanned the planet Geonosis several times and found at least three huge orbital defense cannons on the equator of the planet. These three cannons will give the incoming enemy warships Fatal blow.

All the Jedi fighters immediately dispersed and rushed towards the atmosphere of Planet Geonosis.

...

At the same time, in the command center of the main lair in the eastern hemisphere of the Geonosis planet, everyone is paying attention to the invasion of the Jedi Knights.

"The two Jedi Knights in the factory haven't been caught yet?" Earl Dooku asked back.

Grand Duke Pogle-Inferior replied: "They are already stuck in a workshop, and they cannot escape. I have already photographed 10 Destroyer robots, and it is only a matter of time before they are killed."

"No, I want to catch alive." Count Dooku looked at the battle video, although he was very unfamiliar with Anakin Skywalker, but he was very familiar with Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Obi-Wan Kenobi's mentor, Qui-Gon Jinn, was his apprentice.

"Yes." Grand Duke Pogle nodded, and spoke in Geonosian for a while in the communicator.

"I think we should stop boarding the robot army and let the core of the Rukrihook-class battleship return to the orbital San's hull first, and give priority to preparing for the upcoming Republic offensive?" Gross Shelby After exchanging colors with Tang Xiao, he spoke.

"If this is the case, we will not be able to launch an offensive in time after 3 days. Correspondingly, if we officially announce our secession from the Republic at that time, we will be actively attacked by the Republic instead. In this way, the period of many outer ring planets will be If they are hit, they will no longer recognize our strength, which will be fatal to our plan." Earl Dooku looked at Gross and said.

"If this is the case, we have to doubt the odds of winning this war." Gross Shelby said coldly.

"Don't worry, we must be the victors of this war." Earl Dooku said proudly, "What I'm about to show you is the most secret part of this plan—the way of Sith!"

Hearing this statement, Tang Xiao's eyes darkened, and with a vague smile on his lips, he looked at Earl Dooku.

"As I said before, I used to be a Jedi Knight, but now, I have believed in the way of the Sith, and I... also have a master, he is a Sith Lord, and in the Republic high position."
