The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

1653: Anaji Meat Grinder (1)

Countless Spati clone soldiers of the Galactic Republic roared and charged, and were killed in large numbers as if they were cutting wheat under the rain-like counterattack firepower of the Anji planet defenders.

But while those firepower points were firing, what greeted them was another burst of aerial bombing, sometimes even orbital bombing! The powerful firepower completely covered the firepower points that the clone soldiers poked out with their lives.

Immediately afterwards, more Spati clone soldiers rushed up.

This is also the ground warfare tactic developed by the Army of the Galactic Republic for Spati clone soldiers. To put it bluntly, it is because the instant Spati clone soldiers are not worthy of being equipped with such a powerful mechanized armor force, and strengthening air support is useless. No problem.

Because the power of air support doesn't need to care whether the combat effectiveness of Spati clone soldiers is not strong enough, as long as the air power itself is strong enough. Compared with the ground armored assault tactics that still required tactics and training, after seeing the armored assault tactics of Dawn Star several times, the Supreme Strategic Command also gave up the idea of ​​carefully imitating them.

And the defenders of Planet Anji are not vegetarians. On the one hand, the fleet of the Principality of Dawn is also constantly attacking the Republic's expeditionary fleet, preventing them from concentrating on orbital bombing.

At the same time, a large number of fighter jets took off in the atmosphere to intercept.

Among these fighters, the SJF-14 fighter suddenly appeared!

This fighter is the only combat aircraft in the atmosphere currently put into production by the Fourth Civilization. It is an air superiority fighter in "Homeland: Desert of Karak". The legion's land carrier was produced.

Afterwards, the SJF-14 fighter jet was ordered by the Fourth Civilization Army because of its excellent performance in the atmosphere, and it was used for air defense operations in the atmosphere on some planets. But on the whole, the output of this kind of fighter jet is not high, because the real big orderer of the fourth civilization-the Fourth Civilization Navy still doesn't think much of this kind of fighter jet in the atmosphere.

Senior naval generals, including Admiral Matt Horner, commander-in-chief of the Navy, believe that this fighter jet is only a defensive equipment, which is only needed when fighting defensive warfare. In fact, most of the time, the starfighter is enough to meet the needs of the battlefield, and the starfighter can also fight in space.

Basically, the SJF-14 fighter, like the Phantom fighter, has undergone continuous modernization. The size of this fighter is not small at all, with a length of 20 meters, and there is a lot of room for modification.

In the previous battles, the Fourth Civilization did not fight many planetary defense battles, and places like Onderon Planet were not equipped with such obvious-label equipment due to the problem of concealment, so they hardly appeared.

And now appearing on the planet Anji is the SJF-14D fighter. They have excellent aerodynamic performance, and in the air battle in the atmosphere, they pose a great threat to the Republic fighter jets!

So now on the ground battlefield, although the Spati clone soldiers of the Galactic Republic are still advancing with powerful air power, they will suffer huge losses every step forward.

However, one thing that pleased the commander of the Republic Expeditionary Force, Casio Tag, was that as the clone legion continued to expand its control area on the ground, they also occupied two spaceports that were not blown up by the defenders in time. Now these two spaceports are being repaired by the engineering team with all their strength, and they are expected to be put into use soon.

Next, part of the logistical support pressure can be distributed to these two space ports, so that his expeditionary force can be supplemented and rested for a longer period of time.

With such encouragement, Casio-Tag unscrupulously put all his army on the battlefield!

Now around the planet Anji, the main combat goal of the warships of the Republic every day is to escort a batch of new transport ships to break through the defense of the outer fleet of the planet Anji, and then use themselves as human shields to cover the landing of the transport ships. A well-angled turret is used for ground bombing missions.

But the defense system of the Duchy of Dawn is no decoration!

The thousands of Gauss defense platforms built around the planet are bombarded almost continuously with the two 500mm caliber electromagnetic cannons, and the two eight-mounted missile launchers are also constantly launching missile attacks, and there are also Gauss defense platforms on the planet. Two near-anti-laser cannons are installed, which can be used as part of the overall air defense system.

Coupled with the heroic and fearless attack of the Dawn Principality fleet, the powerful orbital defense system on the planet Anji, and the Argonev-class interstellar star that was forced to the synchronous orbit of the planet, but can still exert its powerful firepower at a certain time. Base, these defensive forces caused the Republic Expeditionary Force to suffer losses almost all the time.

The price paid for sending 80,000 clone soldiers to the front line of the planet was the destruction of 7 Jaeger-class battlecruisers, 1 Cheer-class assault landing ship, and more than 20 transport ships! The transport ship on which more than 30,000 clone troopers were riding was destroyed in the air, and they were all killed without firing a single shot.

Casio-Tag no longer cares about these! He understands that the force in his hands is extremely strong, and because of supply difficulties, the durability of his fleet is also decreasing, so he wants to occupy the planet Anji at all costs and obtain a stable supply base.

And those Spati clone soldiers, staying in the fleet is just a waste of food, why not send them all to the planetary battlefield!

...

"You have quite a lot to ask for, Matt Horner." Darth Malthael looked coldly at the projection of his Commander-in-Chief of the Navy in the holographic projection, "The Fourth Legion and Injory's revenge Or, I originally kept it in my hand as a force for the final counterattack, but now you actually want to go there?"

"The Fourth Legion and the Injory Avengers are a key part of my next phase of the battle plan. I hope you can fully consider the situation we are facing." Matt Horner said seriously, "In Yago- The Republic Fleet of the Dole galaxy has always been based on steady tactics, which makes them very difficult."

"Don't forget that the Republic's fleet invading the Moder star area is more than twice as large as that of Yago-Dur." Darth-Masail said coldly.

"I only want the Fourth Legion and the Injoli Avengers, and I don't want any other forces." Matt Horner said.

"What did the General Staff say?"

"Chief of the General Staff Qi Jian said that the Fourth Legion and the Injory Avengers are under your direct command, so your direct approval is required."

"First take away the only Archon-class aircraft carrier we can use, and then want the Fourth Legion and the Injory Avengers? You're good at bargaining, Matt Horner, just report to the Ministry of Commerce after the battle here Bar."

"My lord, please approve." (End of this chapter)
