The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

1634: half a catty

In the battlefield in the outer space of Planet Anji, the fleets of the two sides collided almost in an extremely violent manner.

Under the command of Volgograd-Kanidi, the 10 Hells Angel-class battlecruisers of the Principality of Dawn fleet rushed directly to the front, turned the hull sideways, and fired eight heavy laser cannons on the side!

And the dense firepower of the Galactic Republic fleet also poured over, and most of the firepower was directed at the Hells Angels at the front. However, the Hell's Angel-class battlecruiser is equipped with thick armor and a solid electrothermal armor coating, which can effectively absorb the firepower of the turbolaser cannon, making their attacks return in vain.

Casio Tag, the commander of the Republic Fleet, also quickly discovered the clues. He ordered his last five Knight-class star destroyers here as the guide, and then sent the five 4,000-meter-level Governor-class cover to carry out a sudden attack .

In addition to 60 XX-9 twin-mounted heavy turbolaser cannons, the Knight-class Star Destroyer is also equipped with 60 ion cannons specially used to destroy shields. It's just that the range of the ion cannon is relatively short, and it needs to be close to exert its power.

As a high-achieving student, Casio Tag still has some real materials. He discovered the heat-absorbing function of the Hell's Angel-class battlecruiser's outer armor from the battlefield data scan, and immediately thought of using the ion cannon attack of the Knight-class Star Destroyer to increase the energy supply pressure of the Hell's Angel-class through electromagnetic damage.

However, the number of Knight-class Star Destroyers is still too small, and the bulky hull of the Governor-class battleship is also equipped with 40 ion cannons, which can also provide some help, so Casio Tag sent the Governor-class along with it.

Volgograd-Kanidi was also tit-for-tat, and he immediately ordered the disaster-class battlecruisers in the rear to aim at the Governor-class battleship of the Republic Fleet to shoot. The powerful power of the particle light spear and the attack speed of the speed of light pose the most direct threat to the governor-class battlecruiser!

And the five Dunov-class battlecruisers moved closer to the Hells Angels, using their engine overload and remote power transmission equipment to quickly replenish energy for the Hells Angels, avoiding the failure of the armor coating due to power outages. Once the armor coating fails, the outer armor belt will quickly melt and fall off under intensive attacks, exposing the fragile internal structure of the battleship.

At the same time, the Behemoth-class battlecruisers began to use Yamato cannons to bombard the Hunter-class battlecruisers of the Republic fleet. After all, the Jaeger-class battlecruisers are superior in number, and the shelling from both sides has temporarily been evenly matched.

At this moment, the variable happened in the second battle group!

The fleet of the dead!

After the red comet was fully charged, Darth Malthael took off with a fighter jet again, and no surprise, the Force-sensitive people on the Republic side also took off dozens of ETA-2 fighter jets to meet them.

But this time, Darth Malthael took a completely different course of action!

On the one hand, he ordered the 6 Knight-class Star Destroyers and 4 Jaeger-class battlecruisers of the second battle group to rush forward in a completely indomitable attitude, posing as if they were colliding. At the same time, the battleship also fired.

Although under the control of those walking dead, the shelling is hardly accurate, but the firepower density of the 60 XX-9 heavy turbo laser cannons of the knight class can still hit a lot of artillery fire.

At the same time, Darth Masail also began to focus on wandering, and did not engage those ETA-2 fighters head-on.

On the contrary, he also started to fly towards the fleet of the Republic at high speed. And he repeated his tricks, once he found that the opponent was chasing him, he immediately hid himself under the fire cover of the second battle group and continued to charge forward.

This trick was tried and tested. After sensing the action of the red comet, the dozens of ETA-2 fighter jets wanted to rush up, but they were forced back by the anti-aircraft firepower of the second battle group. And Darth Malthael was determined not to fight them head-on, but to find every opportunity to get close to the direction of the Republic's fleet.

Seeing this, Casio Tag, commander-in-chief of the Galactic Republic Fleet, had no choice but to let his fleet retreat to avoid the second battle group. At the same time, take off 200 fighter jets to go to reinforcements, intending to continue to entangle Darth Masail.

So under the unreasonable assault of Darth Malthael and the second battle group, the battle situation once again became a situation of chasing and fleeing.

In such a battle, the fleet of the Principality of Dawn naturally had the upper hand, destroying the Republic's four Jaeger-class battlecruisers in the pursuit battle. But they themselves only had two Hell Angels that were severely damaged, and they needed to be dragged back for repairs.

The Republic Fleet also unexpectedly discovered this time that in such a battlefield state where the enemy is fleeing with their backs, the Chaser class performs much better than the Knight class.

Because of the strange turret layout of the Jaeger-class battlecruiser, the 8 XX-9 heavy turbolaser gun turrets are installed on both sides of the bridge, that is, at the rear of the battleship. The front section of the Jaeger-class is all hangar platforms, so it is naturally impossible to install turrets.

In this way, when the two sides are facing the enemy head-on, it is difficult for the Jaeger-class to exert its full firepower. When escaping, because the turrets are all in the second half, it is only necessary to lift the bow a little, and it turns its back on the enemy. The ship can still exert its full firepower.

I don't know what the chief designer of the hunter class, Willix Blissex, will think in his heart when he knows that his favorite work has played a great role in the escape.

In this battle, Darth Masail drove the Republic battleship for more than 200,000 kilometers, and kept dealing with the ETA-2 fighter jets driven by those sensitive to the dark side force. The second battle group is also rushing forward frantically under the control of B-1 battle robots and walking dead.

In the end, Darth Masail shot down 5 ETA-2 fighter jets again, and at the same time rushed to control the two Jaeger-class battlecruisers that failed to escape with the power of death.

As for the second battle group, under the extreme fear of the Galactic Republic, but also became crazy, all 4 hunter-class battlecruisers were destroyed.

In this battle, Darth Malthael was notified by the hyperspace outpost that he stopped because of another fluctuation in hyperspace.

The fleet of the Principality of Dawn and the second battle group of the Death Fleet returned to the outer perimeter of the Anji planet's defense line and re-armed.

Thirty minutes later, the white light flickered violently, and 20 Jaeger-class battlecruisers jumped out of hyperspace and appeared in the Anji galaxy.

The Sixth Battlegroup of the Galactic Republic has arrived on the battlefield!

The situation on the battlefield began to shift in an extremely unfavorable direction for the Principality of Dawn.

There is no doubt that the Galactic Republic will have a seventh, eighth, and even a ninth battle group! But the Principality of Dawn did not have any more reinforcements. (end of this chapter)
