999. Satellite Fall (Part 2)
The highest military command on Eriadu satellite is not on Planetary Shield Generator, but it is the facility with the highest level of defense, including a super huge reactor dedicated to the generator function, and a shield generator that is almost as big as a mountain.
Now everyone knows that Planetary Shield Generator is under attack, so at this time, if a request for help is issued here, troops from other directions will naturally respond immediately.
But those fighter jet formations that received the order to take off urgently for reinforcements never thought that Reaper was in the sky!
Different from what is shown in many film and television works, Deflector Shield does not have any color after it is turned on. Unless it is attacked, it will show some light wave colors of different spectra due to energy reaction.
Those fighter jet formations that took off never thought that Planetary Shield would be activated at this time! And even if Planetary Shield is turned on normally, it will usually be at an altitude of more than 50,000 meters above the ground. This can not only protect the planet, but also facilitate the deployment of the planet's own military power.
After Republic fighter squadron took off, they turned on their engines at full speed, started to climb at maximum power, and flew in the direction of Planetary Shield Generator.
But when they had climbed less than half the height, they bumped into the Planetary Shield that had just opened!!
I emphasize again that the Eriadu satellite is equipped with a two-way shield! It's not the kind of high-end product that only allows those inside to come out and doesn't allow those outside to come in.
boom! boom! boom!!
Hundreds of fighter jets were all crashed into the Planetary Shield in an instant. There were more fighter jets behind because they had no time to slow down and turn, so they also crashed into it!
This situation is happening over the entire Eriadu satellite, in almost every direction of the air force base!
The crashed fighter jet turned into a large ball of fire burning in the air. Countless burning fighter fragments and leaked and ignited fuel seemed to rain down fire in the sky!
The extremely angry Commander from all over the country hurriedly sent letters to ask what happened, but they soon discovered to their horror that the communication was cut off.
Communication for the entire planet...
All cut off!!
In the Planetary Shield Generator control center, a Salarian special forces hacker has completed the operation on the control center host.
What he wants to do is actually very simple, through Planetary Shield, cut off all communications with Eriadu satellite.
For an energy shield covering the entire planet, it is not difficult to do this. It only requires changing the energy frequency of Planetary Shield.
At this moment, the entire Eriadu satellite has been put into an indestructible cage and cannot even make a sound!
At this time, Wilhuff-Tarkin thought that the fierce fighting on the ground of Eriadu satellite was still going on. Although Galactic Republic was retreating steadily, with the size of the defenders on the satellite with a total strength of 2 million, no matter how hard it was, it could drag on for a month or two.
After a month or two, when the hyperspace storm subsides and the hyperspace channels resume navigation, a steady stream of support will arrive again, and Eriadu system's military strength will be so powerful that Separatists will never dare to peek.
And he, Wilhuff-Tarkin, has achieved his long-cherished wish - to defeat Sefrans-Tann!
He didn't know that after a short hyperspace jump, the Sefrans-Tann fleet broke into Eriadu's outer space and assumed an offensive posture.
After symbolically firing several Turbolaser cannons at Eriadu satellite and being blocked by Planetary Shield, Salarian special forces, who controlled the Planetary Shield Generator control center, forced the control center Commander to issue a surrender notice to the entire satellite.
It also requires all armed forces on the entire satellite to lay down their weapons within half an hour.
Otherwise, our own fleet, which is currently fighting Republic fleet in outer space, will launch Orbital Bombardment at the corresponding armed force station! The Planetary Shield in the corresponding area will naturally lower accordingly and will not provide any protection!
Eriadu satellite, the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, Admiral Robertson, after careful consideration, confirmed that the desperate situation he was currently in was irreversible.
Planetary Shield was controlled and deployed at a low altitude of 5,000 meters. At such an altitude, their fighter jets were basically cut off by more than half of their combat effectiveness. At such a low altitude, fighter jets are greatly threatened by ground anti-aircraft firepower. In other words, it will be almost impossible for them to launch an air strike against Separatist army on the satellite.
At the same time, their main armored forces are basically in a disabled state. The armored force command headquarters has been intercepted and all heavy weapons have been lost. Only high-speed vehicles such as the TX-130 are still struggling with Indjori.
The 100,000 defenders in the direction of Planetary Shield Generator are constantly being eaten away by the army of Caladanian, and as the control center is controlled, some defensive firepower deployed in the center of the defense line has begun to fire at the back of the defenders. They are attacked from both sides, and it is only a matter of time before they are annihilated.
Therefore, all Admiral Robertson can use now are the remaining infantry units in various places.
When communications are completely cut off, it is an impossible task for these infantry units to just deploy to the corresponding position to attack Planetary Shield Generator, let alone fight!
All of the above are based on the premise that there is no Orbital Bombardment!
Separatist fleet is deploying in outer space, and since the war began, their fleet has been stronger than Republic 18th Army's fleet. Therefore, the fleet of the 18th Army has always relied on the orbital defense system and fighter formations of Eriadu and satellites to carry out operations, and did not dare to rush out and confront Separatist fleet head-on.
Therefore, in this case, it is no longer possible to count on our own fleet to drive away Separatist fleet. In other words, Separatists warships can launch Orbital Bombardment against themselves at any time!
despair! This is despair!
Although on the satellite, Admiral Robertson still has at least 1.7 million troops at his disposal, but after a series of losses, Separatist army has only about 120,000, less than one-tenth.
But the current situation is desperate for the Galactic Republic defenders!
Finally, Admiral Robertson lowered his proud head and announced his surrender.
Ling Liang was well prepared and immediately sent people to take over all the space ports and air force bases on the planet, and then took over the orbital defense system, and then immediately opened fire on Republic fleet, who was fighting the main fleet of Sefrans-Tann in outer space!
Eriadu satellite, completely occupied!
The last barrier blocking Eriadu was completely torn down!!
