1145. New shadow

Anakin-Skywalker and Ahsoka-Tano successfully escaped from the trap on Kent with the help of clone Commander CC-2224 Cody, and confirmed Jedi Master Pang-Krell has fallen to the Dark Side and betrayed, and also colluded with Separatists's Dark Followers Asajj-Ventress to intervene in Ombara planet's war.

The current situation is extremely unfavorable for the Galactic Republic Army. The legion led by Pang-Krell suffered heavy losses in the frontal attack, and then was violently bombed by Kent. Basically all combat units were scattered. The legion of more than 9,000 people now has no more than 2,000 combatants!

The situation of the 501st Legion of Anakin-Skywalker is slightly better, with less than 3,000 casualties, but now with the collapse of another legion, they are also fighting alone.

A more serious problem is that because Pang-Krell previously launched a rash attack on the capital, Anakin-Skywalker also adopted a radical strategy in order to cooperate with his actions, allowing 501st Legion to break through the enemy blockade and reach the capital faster. So under such circumstances, some Umbarians troops behind them also began to outflank them.

And the four Acclamator-class assault ship they were aboard are now in a precarious situation.

One of the two Acclamator-classs aboard the Pang-Krell legion, Kent, was occupied by Asajj-Ventress, and then destroyed the other Acclamator-class on the ground.

You must know that the Acclamator-class that landed on the ground is actually used as a fortress and command center with powerful firepower. After losing two Acclamator-classs, the Umbarianss in his direction can move troops from here into the capital to support operations without any hindrance.

As for 212th Attack Battalion, who was responsible for blocking Umbarians's reinforcements, he was also forced to retreat after suffering heavy losses. In this direction, Umbarians's tens of thousands of troops began to threaten the rear of Pang-Krell's army!

Anakin-Skywalker reported to Jedi Order the news that Pang-Master Krell had betrayed him and made the entire Ombara planet battle irreversible. He then led his army to retreat, gave up the plan to attack the capital, and returned to his own Acclamator-class assault ship, preparing to switch to defense.

At the same time, Anakin asked for help from Republic Supreme Strategic Command, hoping to get more reinforcements.

Ombara planet must be taken back! Chancellor of the Galactic Senate Sheev-Palpatine emphasized this point again during a parliamentary meeting.

Because if Ombara planet cannot be recovered, it will be a major blow to other doubtful planets. These planets are likely to think that the cost of betraying Galactic Republic is not high, and thus take the risk!

However, just when Supreme Strategic Command began to prepare to mobilize more troops, a piece of bad news suddenly came!

The famous Separatists general Sefrans-Tann, who disappeared after occupying Eriadu system, appears again! And she led an elite fleet, and the flagship was another Conqueror-class battleship—Destruction!!

Malevolence That terrible shadow shrouded again!

She led a fleet of Destruction, 5 Deceiver-class destroyer, and 10 Behemoth-class battlecruiser to suddenly attack Ambria system (Ambria), where a Galactic Republic fleet was assembled, preparing to launch a counterattack from the direction of Onderon.

Ambria system gathered a powerful force of 30 Hunter Class Battlecruiser, 3 Victory-class Star Destroyer, and 5 Acclamator-class assault ship, but this fleet was completely destroyed in front of Sefrans-Tann!

Under the command of the geniuses Sefrans-Tann, the officially installed Behemoth-class battlecruiser fully unleashed its powerful combat effectiveness. The powerful plasma cannon-Yamato Cannon equipped among them poses a serious threat to Hunter Class Battlecruiser.

Hunter Class's Deflector Shield was thoroughly proven in this battle to be unable to withstand the shots of Yamato Cannon, and the internal structure of the battleships also meant that once their armor was broken, what awaited them was almost immediately the tragic ending of ship destruction and death!

In the previous battles, Galactic Republic had only encountered a few Behemoth-class battlecruiser that appeared in clusters once or twice, and suffered defeat every time. But in this air battle of Ambria system, the blow to Galactic Republic military was very direct...

There is nothing more embarrassing than a fleet that is gathering and ready to go being suddenly attacked, and then being beaten with almost no power to fight back until it is almost annihilated!

What's even more frightening is that this time Conqueror-class battleship Destruction did not conduct a single-ship raid like its predecessor Malevolence, but instead served as a fleet flagship to support an entire fleet in operations.

Conqueror-class's terrifying threat in fleet battles once again proved Galactic Republic military's concerns - Sefrans-Tann used Destruction's directed high-energy electronic pulse to destroy Republic fleet's fighter jets swarm and continuously destroy Republic fleet's formation, and then use Yamato Cannon of Behemoth-class battlecruiser to destroy Galactic Republic Hunter Class one by one.

And after Sefrans-Tann destroyed Ambria system's Republic fleet, they didn't stay much longer, but turned around and left, disappearing into the vast sea of stars.

The plan to counterattack Onderon was aborted. Republic Supreme Strategic Command urgently stopped counterattack plans in other directions and immediately convened a military meeting to discuss countermeasures.

The level of the military meeting continued to increase, and finally, the speakers Sheev-Palpatine and Jedi Order leader Master Windu also participated in the meeting.

Meanwhile, Rendili Planet.

Gali-Ulan walked quickly through the gorgeous and noble palace, which was completely inconsistent with the elegance and calmness they usually displayed.

His robes swayed with the movement of the wind under his feet, and the thin fabric even outlined the outline of Gali-Ulan's thighs... It was simply unbearable to look at.

In fact, when designing this kind of robe, the posture of the wearer when running was never considered.

"Father!" Gali-Ulan pushed open the study door and walked in, shouting in an almost rude tone.

Standing in front of the window, reading an ancient book through the holographic projection is a thin old man, energetic and calm, who is Rendili Planet and Supreme Leader of Rendili StarDrive, patriarch of Urlan family——Bangjila-Ulan.

He gently waved his hand and asked the beautiful maids next to him to step back, and then slowly asked, "Just one Destruction, does it make you panic like this? Gali, this shouldn't be the demeanor that a family heir should have."

Gali-Ulan was stunned, "You know what I want to say? Father."

"Destruction's sudden appearance, Ambria system's air battle, this is what you want to tell me." Bangjila-Ulan said calmly.

"This air battle is of great value to us!" Gali-Ulan said eagerly.

"Three Victory-class Star Destroyers participated in this battle, and the combat data showed that the Deflector Shield of the Victory-class Star Destroyer could barely withstand the attack of the Behemoth-class battlecruiser main gun, and even if the Deflector Shield was defeated, the Star Destroyer's scientific and effective armor The belt layout and structural damage are enough to sustain it, so that Star Destroyer will not lose its combat effectiveness." Bangjila-Ulan said calmly, "Compared to Hunter Class Battlecruiser, this battle almost immediately put the answer to Behemoth-class battlecruiser in front of us..."

"That's right! It's our Victory-class Star Destroyer!!" Gali-Ulan was extremely excited. "I have already put PR department into operation and regarded Victory-class Star Destroyer as The analysis report and simulation combat record of Republic fleet's components are sent to Republic Ship Supervision Committee! This may allow Republic military to officially purchase Victory-class! Not only that, I also submitted the shipbuilding plan of Victory II-class Star Destroyer!"

Unexpectedly, Bangjila-Ulan didn't show any excitement at all on his face. He just shook his head slightly and said, "Contact Archangel of Death, the time has come."
